Music of the Lost: La Corda D'Oro

Music of the Lost: The Participants

"All right then," lackey number two says smirking. "You play something."

"I major in voice." Mizuki bluntly relies, earning a gasp from everyone except Kahoko. It's rare that a student would enter the competition with his or her voice since all kinds of mishaps could happen, but before the group could react, Mizuki takes a deep breath and begins to sing. (This is Kimi no Kioku from Hakuoki. Translation will down at the end.)

Maiochiru hanabira hoho o tsutau shizuku

ano hi futari de miageteta keshiki ni ima tada hitori

Omoidasu no ga kowakute

Hitomi kokoro o tozashite

Nandomo kesou to shita no sono tabi ni anata afureta

Zutto mamoritai to negatta tatoe kizutsuite mo

Dare yori mo chikaku de mitsumeteita

Dakishimeta nukumori wa mada kono te no naka ni

Wasurenai

Ikutsu no kisetsu o kasanete mo anata omotteru

Hajimete atta toki ima mo oboeteru no

Tsukiakari ni yurameiteta kanashige na sono yokogao

Setsunasa o kakaeta mama

Hitomi kokoro o nurashite

Ooki na senaka dakishime tsubuyaita watashi ga iru yo

Sotto tsutsumikonda ryoute wa anata no tame ni aru

Nan ni mo iwanaide tada kou shite

Subete o nakushita tte koukai nado shinai

Honki de omotteta

Anna ni mo dareka o nido to ai senai

Zutto hanarenai to chikatte

Kami o nadetekureta nanoni naze? tonari ni anata wa inai

Dakishimeta nukumori wa mada kono te no naka ni

Wasurenai

Ikutsu no kisetsu o kasanete mo anata omotteru

When the soft gentle voice stops, the world seems to fall silent for a second, not knowing how to react. Then, a loud voice rings out from behind them, followed by Kazuki rushes forward excitedly, clasping Mozuki's hands on his own. "That was amazing, Mizu-chan!" he exclaims excitedly. "You're really good!"

Mizuki blushes with embarrassment and looks down. "Arigato gosaimasu, Hihara-sempai, but could you let go of my hands now?"

"Gomen!" Kazuki yelps embarrassed.

"Hihara is right. You are very talented, Yukimura-San." Asuna says smiling. The three girls suddenly quiet and excuse themselves nervously.

"Cowards," Mizuki mutters darkly before turning to Kahoko and Shouko, who are chatting lightly. She is about to walk over to them when a pen and paper is shoved under her nose.

"I'm Amou Nami, reporter for the press club!" the blond haired girl says grinning. "Could you answer a few questions for me?"

"Um, Kahoko and I have to go and practice. Excuse us." With that, the both Gen. Ed. Students rush away.

"Arigato, Mizuki-San! You really saved me!" Kahoko says smiling. Mizuki smiles slightly and stops running.

"I wasn't lying though. You and I are going to practice."

"Eh?" Kahoko asks, confused, earning a sigh from her friend.
