"You really know how to light up a room when you're not down yourself." Miku patted her shoulder.

"That's because I have a mission today. I have to help someone feel better." Sakura's eyes were lit with fire.

"It would be great if you came along as well." Ayumi spoke to Sakura as she arranged the pleats on her skirt.

"Anything with stars or wings on them. Definitely."
