Work Text:
Early in the morning, Seleas room.
A big explosion sounds, even when they know what’s that about the just awaken goddess went to see what happened.
Coughing Matsuri left her room which was all covered in dust because her experiment failed.
—Are you all right? — Akane asked concerned seeing her partner covered in dust.
—I’m fine but the room isn’t— she replied.
Reina and Tsubaki were looking at the disaster, there was no other option but to call the company so they could fix the room.
—Don’t worry! Surely the director could help us! Also, it looks like there’s only dust and no more damage than that. —Reina was trying to make Matsuri feel better, Tsubaki nodded.
—I know you have work today with Akane, so go, I’ll call the director— added the leader of Seleas.
Matsuri, thanking and apologizing to her roommates, retired to take a bath to remove all the dust.
Akane sighed worriedly but at the same time relieved since her partner had not been hurt, a hand rested on her shoulder. —Don't worry, for sure it would be fixed before the night! You need to leave for the entertainment show soon, so I prepared some bentos for the trip— said Yuno who was the one with Akane in the kitchen before the explosion happened.
Akane and Matsuri along with Yoru and You were invited to a variety show that day, the recording went smoothly.
—Good job. —It was heard between the staff and the idols when the recording ended.
—Good work— Yoru added offering some juice boxes the staff just gave him. Opening his juice, You addressed Matsuri —Shun told me that you blew up your room today. Yoru, unaware of what his partner said worriedly asked. —What happened? Are they all okay?
—Don't worry Yoru, nobody got hurt. — Akane replied, Matsuri took a sip of her drink before speaking. —An experiment went wrong and it exploded, but it only covered the room with dust.
Yoru breathed in relief.
—According to Reina, it’s going to be fixed before the night since they sent professionals to clean everything.
—That is good. And now what are you going to do? Are you going to the apartment? — asked the August representative.
—If you want, you can come to Procella's apartment while they tidy up— Yoru added.
—Yes! — Both goddesses answered, going to the procella's apartment not only meant being able to eat yoru's food but also seeing all the pets they have there.
—So, all of you are going to the same place? —The voice of Kurotsuki, Procellarum's manager, interrupted their conversation. Nodding, the four idols returned in the company car.
—Oh, welcome back. — Kai greeted his roommates, Rui who was asleep a few inches from there woke up when he heard voices in the room. —Akane, Matsuri, welcome— Rui greeted, as he stretched Yamato appeared and climbed onto his lap.
Matsuri put her juice box on the table along with another bottle of questionable content which she had managed to save from the morning's explosion. After that she approached Rui to greet Yamato.
—Would you like a drink? — Kai asked, with the confirmation of the goddesses, he began to prepare some teas for them.
When he was serving them and before they could thank him the door to the common room opened revealing Arata and Aoi.
—We heard that Akane-chan and Matsuri-chan came to visit and we wanted to say hi— Aoi said entering the room. —We also heard that Matsuri blew up her room— Arata commented taking a seat.
—How is it that rumors spread so fast here? — Akane asked with a small doubtful laugh as she turned her gaze towards her partner, she was afraid that she would feel embarrassed but when she saw that she didn't have a reaction, she calmed down.
—An explosion can be the way to a successful experiment— Matsuri replied, keeping her pride as an inventor, turning her gaze towards Arata her face paled a little. —Arata-san no! —
—This water tastes bad. — Arata had drunk from the bottle that was on the table believing that it was simply water.
—It's not water— Matsuri said and took the bottle from his hands. —It was a solution from today's experiment that I couldn't finish.
—And what does it do? — Arata asked, his face wasn’t alarmed at all.
—It changes small climates in small places so I don't know what could do to a person.
—Hmm… I don't feel anythi...
Arata could not finish his sentence because he fainted, well actually he fell into a little nap, Aoi and the others surrounded him worried, even Matsuri was worried. They all took a step away as Arata began to wake up and a bit of smoke enveloped him.
As the smoke dissipated, whoever was there in front of them had red-framed glasses as well as a scarf around his neck of the same color.
— Arata, are you okay?! — Aoi asked worried.
—'Arata?’ I don't know any Arata, I am the superhero who's going to make your hearts beat BA-DUM, Shitsuren Red!
You hit his face —Incredible the solution in that bottle summoned Shitsuren red out of his season. How long do you think the effect will last? — The August representative consulted, knowing the way to be of that superhero make his head hurt.
—I couldn't exactly say a time, it could be minutes or hours, but I don't think more since the solution wasn't finished yet. — she answered.
—Even when today isn’t April 1st, I will continue doing my job. There are people who need me!
The people in the room knew the energy of that hero, they had no choice but to keep up with him and hope that help Arata to return to normal faster.
They left Procella's common room to go to Gravi's one, where Koi and Kakeru were playing a new game that they had bought a long time ago but hadn't been able to play it. Koi's face changed drastically when he turned his face to the door.
—What's wrong Pink? Aren't you excited to see me? —Shitsuren red said walking towards the juniors.
At first Koi thought it was a joke, but when he saw that everyone was following him he knew that maybe that wasn’t the case — It's not April 1st, what are you doing here? Is this a joke?
—We wish it were just a joke— You replied —But Arata drank an experiment from Matsuri and now Shitsuren red wants to 'solve problems'.
—Maybe he came at a good time— Kakeru commented —We are stuck on this level, and we need help.
Smiling and posing Shitsuren sat between them taking one of the joysticks. —Let me beat this.
The first attempts did not go as he wanted but on the third time, he managed to beat the level getting the emotion of both Kakeru and Koi.
—Amazing, thank you, Shitsuren red! — Kakeru said, happy to be able to continue with his game.
—My work here is finished— said the hero starting to walk to the exit in search of more heroic missions.
—Shouldn't someone follow him? — Koi asked before taking his joystick again.
—And end up being part of his 'heroic tasks'? No thanks. — You no longer wanted to deal with that, Aoi and Matsuri were the ones who decided to follow the hero as to watch when the solution would stop working. The others stayed in the Gravi common room playing video games.
Without warning the door to the SolidS common room opened.
—The hero you needed just arrived! — Breaking the peace of the environment Shitsuren Red entered.
— Shitsuren Red? But today isn't the first of April— confused Tsubasa wondered what was happening.
—It's a long story but just play along. — Aoi warned.
Really, the fact that the idols under Tsukino production were already used to the unexpected were helpful in this situation.
—Well, maybe you came at a good time, Shiki is locked in his room composing a new song but we've run out of his favorite coffee and Rikka and Dai-chan don't come back until late from their work, could Shitsuren take care of that?
—Of course! Just for today I will accept unusual orders because today isn’t my assigned day!
Aoi and Matsuri stayed while Shitsuren went on his ‘important task’ of buying coffee. Tsubasa invited them to sit down and served them juice. While they waited for the hero they talked about the actual situation.
—So, Arata drank a solution and now we have the presence of Shitsuren red out of his season— the blond laughed. —Well at least he saved me from going to the store.
—I hope these tasks help him to be Arata again as soon as possible, it’s difficult to keep up with his energy—Aoi commented before taking a sip of his drink.
—According to my calculations, it shouldn't continue for much longer, but since the solution wasn't stable, I can't say it with all confidence.
—It's still incredible that you're an inventor— said Tsubasa, who didn't have much contact with the goddesses since they didn't live in the same building.
—I have arrived! — With a boisterous entering Shitsuren Red delivered the coffee that Tsubasa had asked for. —Thanks for your hard work! —The blond answered.
—My work here is done! — With a bow he walked towards the door, Aoi and Matsuri waving quickly followed the hero who continued with his heroic tasks for the day.
—Tsubasa? What was all that noise? — A tired Shiki appeared in the room.
—A hero has brought you your favorite coffee— replied the blonde preparing a cup of that coffee, the SolidS leader was not understanding anything, but the fragrance of a freshly brewed coffee made him forget everything.
—Good work— Tsubasa said placing a cup in front of Shiki who sat at the table in the common room. —Thank you, your coffees are my favorites— replied the leader proceeding to enjoy that cup.
In the corridors of the building Hajime and Shun, who had returned from a photo session for a commercial, ran into the two idols and the hero.
—Arata? What are you doing dressed like this? — Hajime asked when he saw his unitmate in the suit that only appears once a year.
—I don't know any Arata, I'm Shitsuren Red! — Corrected the hero, the leader of six gravity sighed although inside he wished it was just a joke but when he saw that Aoi and Matsuri were behind him, he knew it was otherwise.
—The fact that there is both Shitsuren Red and Matsuri makes me think that there may be a relationship between it— Shun said with a smile on his face.
—It's true, Arata-san drank from a bottle that I had left on the table thinking it was water when, in fact, it was what I had managed to rescue from the experiment I was preparing in the morning. — Matsuri explained.
—Since it was for an experiment, do you know how long he will be like this? — Hajime consulted, imagining the work it must be taking for those two to keep up with the energy of the hero.
—I don't think it will last much longer, but since the solution wasn't very stable, I'm not so sure— Matsuri replied.
Shun who was talking to Shitsuren and Aoi, looked at Hajime and Matsuri and winked his eye. Matsuri didn't understand but Hajime did. —Shun is going to help this end, I suppose it was tiring having to keep up with Shitsuren Red.
Shun, who sent Shitsuren red to buy some drinks for everyone, took advantage of that moment to explain what was going to do to help Arata return to normal.
When Shitsuren returned with the drinks, they decided to drink them in Procella's common room, which was empty since the others were playing in Gravi's place.
As a 'thank you' Shun performed what appeared to be a magic trick with the hero's drink, everyone except him knew that this was to return Arata to normal.
—Could it be that the magic trick not only changed the color of the drink but also the taste? — wondered the hero.
—It's possible, doesn't it taste like strawberry milk?" —Shun replied.
—Yes... But its flavor has something else... But I couldn't explain what i..." Before he could finish his sentence, the hero fell into a deep sleep again.
—Is he going back to normal?" — Aoi asked.
—We will know when he wakes up— Hajime replied.
Several minutes passed before Arata got up as if he had had a nightmare.
—What happened? — Arata asked, removing the glasses from his face and the scarf. —Why do I have this?
—You don't remember anything?
—No, I just remember that I had a drink and fell asleep.
While Aoi was telling what happened to Arata, Akane and Yoru came into the room.
—Here you are! —Yoru said —I see Arata is back to normal.
—That's good! Besides Reina-chan just sent me a message saying that the room is already cleaned. —Akane commented happily.
—Today's problems have already been solved so both of you can go back to your building in peace— Shun added.
After after saying goodbye to everyone the goddesses started their journey back to their home.
—Was it difficult for you to follow Shitsuren Red? — Asked Akane
—A little, he is very energetic, but it was fun. —Matsuri replied with a smile on her face.
When they arrived the goddesses asked Matsuri and Akane about everything that had happened, they answer it while eating dinner who was already made and served in the table.
After eating Matsuri and Akane went to their room. The august representative fell asleep in the moment she lay down on her bed.
—It's not easy to keep up with a hero— Akane whispered, covering her partner so she wouldn't get cold and then she went to sleep too.
