Music echoed through the COSMIC studio.
Bright lights cast a warm glow over Raito and Tsuki as they practiced their signature moves together:
Raito's energetic,
Tsuki's graceful.
Like the sun and moon.
As they danced together,
the whole room began to pulse with energy:
Jun, Hiyori, and Nagisa practiced their own choreography.
Ibara and the twins stood back, watching.
As the song ended,
Polar Opposites high-fived, gasping in exhausted relief.
And the first one to speak up with a grin was Hinata:
"You definitely haven't lost your touch!"
"Yeah!" Yuta jumped in,
"You guys were so in sync you made everyone else look bad!"
Raito grinned—beaming pride and light:
"Of course we are!"
Tsuki was more modest:
"We just had to work twice as hard to keep up."
Ibara stepped forward,
smiling: "And it worked."
Raito and Tsuki sat down, unwrapping water bottles to cool down.
Hiyori sat next to Raito:
"How are you two feeling? You're not pushing yourself, are you?"
Raito cracked open a water bottle, laughing:
"No, no, promise! Today I'm going easy."
Tsuki sat beside him and added:
"Yeah, we don't want to overdo it."
Hiyori smiled, a little relieved:
"Good, take care of yourselves first. We don't mind waiting longer if you need it."
The next day
The office was quiet.
Sunlight streamed through the window, dust floating like stardust.
Raito tiptoed in with way too much drama—hands behind his back, grinning like he'd just pulled off a heist.
"Operation: Raid Ibara's Secret Lair... complete!"
Tsuki followed slowly,
arms crossed,
eyes scanning every shelf, every file cabinet—
expression deadpan as ever:
"...You do realize this is illegal if we get caught."
Raito waved him off:
"Pfft—don't be such a rule-follower! Ibara's not gonna arrest us!"
"Besides... I know he has something."
"No one glares that hard without keeping secrets."
He crept toward the desk—
opened a drawer labeled "Eden - Official Business"—
then another...
and then—BAM!
He froze.
Tsuki stepped beside him and looked down.
Inside wasn't gossip or scandal...
But photos.
Dozens of them—
all of Polar Opposites:
- Raito laughing mid-rehearsal
- Tsuki fixing his hair quietly
- Both asleep after training sessions
- And one from the hospital: their hands still clasped
Taped at the bottom of one photo?
A sticky note in sharp handwriting:
"They're worth protecting. No more failures."
Silence fell.
Raito swallowed hard—the brightness in his eyes now misty:
"...Wait. Did Ibara... keep tabs on us? Like... watching over us?"
Tsuki stared at it longest...
then whispered:
"He didn't want credit."
"Just to make sure we made it back alive."
Outside,
the door creaked slightly—but no footsteps came closer yet.
Someone had been listening...
but quietly stepped away instead.
🌙🖤💼
Raito flicked on Ibara's computer...
then suddenly stopped, eyes wide:
"Whoa, check it out..."
Tsuki looked up—
and they saw:
A solo MV, by Ibara.
"Ibara... has his own song?"
Raito squinted in disbelief.
"And it's a solo. Wait, lemme play—"
He played it...
And the two started to listen,
completely absorbed.
This song...
it was a song about poison.
Cold, dangerous, clever,
a song of betrayal and schemes...
but it was so good.
"Whoaaaaa..." Raito whispered, awestruck.
Tsuki just crossed his arms,
then softly asked:
"...How many secret talents do you think Ibara-san actually has?"
Raito watched in complete awe, head bobbing to the music, a huge grin on his face.
"Whoa..."
Tsuki was more subdued, but no less impressed.
When the song ended,
he crossed his arms:
"...I guess he's just full of surprises, like always.
Raito nodded:
"Yeah... and totally talented."
They sat there a moment,
just thinking.
Then—
Footsteps sounded outside...
The door flew open.
Ibara stood frozen.
Eyes wide.
Tie slightly undone from practice.
Raito and Tsuki also froze—
mid-computer screen—MV still playing on loop: "Poison Strategy" — Ibara Saegusa.
Silence.
Then Raito grinned—cheeks pink, unrepentant:
"Uh... surprise? We were not snooping! ...Okay, we were."
Tsuki deadpanned:
"We walked in. The computer was on. Curiosity followed."
Ibara stared at them—
face unreadable...
then slowly stepped forward,
closed the lid of his laptop with a soft click.
Still quiet.
Then, without looking up:
"...You shouldn't have seen that."
Raito's smile faded just a little:
"Why not? It was amazing! You're like... a shadow king pulling strings behind Eden!"
Tsuki added softly:
"...It wasn't just music. It was your anger. Your warning."
A beat passed.
Then Ibara leaned against his desk,
shoulders low for once—
and finally said:
"That song... is my truth."
"When the world plays dirty,"
"you fight with something even sharper—"
"but no one should ever go through what you did because of it."
He looked up at them, eyes sharp but soft beneath the edge:
"...I didn't make it to save idols."
"I made it to burn anyone who hurts them alive."
Silence fell again...
but warmer now.
Raito wiped under his eye quickly and laughed weakly:
"Man... you could've warned us we'd cry over your solo MV!"
Tsuki just nodded once—
respectfully, quietly—
and said what they both felt:
"...Thank you."
Outside the window,
the wind brushed past like an answer—
and somewhere deep inside?
The sun and moon shone brighter,
knowing their shadows weren't alone anymore. 🌙🖤☀️
Raito leaned forward, eyes sparkling like he'd just had the best idea ever:
"Wait... if Ibara gets a solo MV..."
He turned to Tsuki with a mischievous grin—
"Then we should too!"
Tsuki didn't flinch. Just looked at him for three seconds... then gave one slow nod.
"...Yeah."
"You do yours first."
Raito gasped, clapping his hands:
"YES! And it's gonna be brighter than the sun! Dance-heavy, confetti explosion, glitter in the air—"
Ibara finally spoke up, voice low but not unkind:
"Just don't collapse mid-take."
Tsuki shot him a flat look.
"I'll make sure he drinks enough water."
Raito stuck out his tongue—then suddenly grinned at Ibara:
"And you're directing it!"
"No." Immediate flat refusal. Then... after a pause... "...Fine. But no crying on camera." 🎬☀️🌙
The weekday
The light music clubroom was warm in the afternoon sun.
Polar Opposites stood in front of Koga Oogami—
tall, grey-haired, arms crossed—UNDEAD's wild wolf now also their club president.
And right behind him?
Rei Sakuma — calm, elegant eyes narrowed with interest.
"A solo MV?" Koga repeated, voice deep.
"You two? After just getting out of the hospital?"
Raito grinned—bright and unshakable:
"Exactly! We're back! And we wanna shine even harder!"
Tsuki nodded beside him:
"We've already got Ibara on director duty."
Rei raised an eyebrow:
"...Ibara is directing? Hm. Then it might actually be good."
Koga stared at them for a long second...
then smirked.
"...Fine."
He tossed Raito a microphone from the desk:
"But if you collapse again—I'll carry you back to that hospital myself."
Raito caught it with a laugh:
"Deal!"
Tsuki just sighed quietly:
"...I'll make sure he doesn't push too far."
Rei leaned forward slightly—voice soft but firm:
"Then let's make it mean something."
"Not just recovery..."
"Comeback."
The room fell still—
until Raito raised the mic like a sword,
grinning at his moon beside him,
and whispered loud enough for all to hear:
"Let's light up the world—one song at a time."
🎧🔥🌙☀️
Kaoru leaned in the doorway, smiling.
Behind him, Hinata and Yuta grinned:
"Go for it, you two! Show them what the sun and moon are made of."
Raito winked—
full of confidence as always—
but next to him...
Tsuki's expression was quiet,
full of determination.
"We will."
The COSMIC studio was alive—
lights blazing,
cameras rolling,
and in the center—
Polar Opposites.
Raito bounced on his toes, adjusting his golden jacket:
"I feel like a shooting star!"
Tsuki adjusted his silver scarf with a sigh:
"You are wearing half the glitter inventory."
Behind them, Ibara stood tall—megaphone in hand—voice firm:
"Positions. Now. And Raito?"
"...Don't smile too hard—you're an idol, not a solar flare."
The crew laughed.
From the sidelines,
idols watched like proud older siblings:
- Nagisa fanned himself dramatically: "They're glowing!"
- Hiyori smiled softly, hands clasped: "They've come so far..."
- Jun waved with both hands: "Break a leg! But not really!"
Hinata yelled out:
"Tsuki! Work that cool aura!"
Yuta added:
"And Raito—you better dance like you mean it!"
Niki jumped up and down:
"They're shining!! I can't take it!!"
HiMERU pushed up his glasses—calm but glowing inside:
"Data confirms... their chemistry is off the charts."
Kohaku patted Rinne's shoulder:
"If they cry during takes again—I'm throwing plushies at them."
Rinne grinned:
"I'll throw confetti to hide it!"
Shu and Mika exchanged glances—silent nods of approval.
Even Reika watched from afar... smirking just slightly.
Then—
silence.
Camera rolling.
Music cue set.
Ibara raised one hand...
and lowered it:
"Action."
And just like that—
the sun rose...
and the moon began to glow...
🎥💫🔥🌙
The practice studio was filled with the rhythm of music and the sound of moving feet.
Under the bright lights, Raito and Tsuki moved as one.
Raito's steps were energetic and vivid, like the sun bursting through clouds.
Tsuki's movements were fluid and sharp, like moonlight cutting through darkness.
Watching them, the members of Eden continued their own training, their presence filling the room with a sense of unity and power.
As the song came to an end, the two boys high-fived, breathing heavily but grinning widely.
"You definitely haven't lost your touch!" Hinata called out, clapping enthusiastically from the side.
"Yeah!" Yuta jumped in, eyes sparkling. "You guys were so in sync you made everyone else look bad!"
Raito puffed out his chest, beaming with pride.
"Of course we are! We're Polar Opposites!"
Tsuki wiped sweat from his brow, looking slightly more modest.
"We just had to work twice as hard to get back to this level."
Ibara stepped forward, a rare genuine smile on his face.
"And it worked. You are ready."
The next day.
The office was bathed in quiet sunlight, dust motes dancing in the beams like tiny stars.
Raito crept in, hands behind his back, wearing the most mischievous grin imaginable.
"Operation: Raid Ibara's Secret Lair... complete!"
Tsuki followed slowly behind him, arms crossed, scanning the room with a skeptical eye.
"...You do realize this is technically trespassing if we get caught."
"Pfft—don't be such a rule-follower!" Raito waved his hand dismissively. "Ibara-san isn't going to arrest us! Besides... I know he has something hidden here. No one glares that hard without keeping secrets."
He crept toward the large desk, opening one drawer labeled "Eden - Official Business", then another...
And then—he froze.
Tsuki moved to his side and looked down.
Inside the drawer weren't files or scandals...
But photographs.
Dozens of them.
All of them were pictures of Polar Opposites.
- Raito laughing loudly during practice.
- Tsuki sitting quietly, fixing his hair.
- The two of them asleep on the sofa after exhausting training.
- And one, taken in the hospital room: their hands, tightly clasped together on the bedsheet.
Taped to the bottom corner of one photo was a sticky note, written in Ibara's sharp, precise handwriting:
"They're worth protecting. No more failures."
Silence fell over the room.
Raito swallowed hard, the brightness in his eyes turning misty.
"...Wait. Did Ibara... keep tabs on us? Like... watching over us this whole time?"
Tsuki stared at the note the longest, his expression softening.
"He didn't want credit... He just wanted to make sure we made it back alive."
Outside the door, the handle turned slightly.
Footsteps approached, then stopped.
Someone had been listening... but chose to walk away quietly, leaving them to their discovery.
🌙🖤💼
"Whoa... check this out!"
Raito's voice broke the silence as he leaned over the desk and flicked on the computer monitor.
Tsuki looked up, and his eyes widened slightly.
On the screen was a video file.
A solo Music Video.
Artist: Ibara Saegusa.
"Ibara... has his own song?" Raito squinted, genuinely shocked. "And it's a solo? Wait, lemme play it—"
He clicked play.
As the music began, the two boys fell silent, completely absorbed.
The song was cold, dangerous, and incredibly clever.
It spoke of schemes, betrayal, and thorns hidden beneath beautiful flowers.
It was a masterpiece of darkness and strategy.
"Whoaaaaa..." Raito whispered, awestruck, his head naturally bobbing to the beat.
Tsuki crossed his arms, listening intently.
"...How many secret talents do you think he actually has?"
When the song ended, Raito let out a long breath.
"He's like... a shadow king pulling all the strings behind Eden!"
Tsuki nodded slowly, his voice quiet but serious.
"...It wasn't just music. It was his anger. His warning to the world."
Just then—
Click-clack. Click-clack.
Footsteps sounded outside.
The door flew open.
Ibara stood in the doorway, frozen.
His eyes were wide, his tie slightly loosened from the day's work.
Raito and Tsuki also froze.
On the screen, the MV was looping: "Poison Strategy" — Ibara Saegusa.
Absolute silence.
Then Raito grinned, cheeks slightly pink but unrepentant.
"Uh... surprise? We were not snooping! ...Okay, we were definitely snooping."
Tsuki deadpanned, playing it cool.
"We walked in. The computer was on. Curiosity followed."
Ibara stared at them, his face unreadable for a long moment.
Then, he stepped forward slowly and closed the laptop lid with a soft, definitive click.
He didn't look up immediately.
"...You shouldn't have seen that."
"Why not?" Raito leaned forward, his expression sincere. "It was amazing! It was so cool!"
Tsuki added softly, looking directly at him:
"...It was your truth, wasn't it?"
Ibara sighed, leaning back against his desk. For once, his shoulders dropped, losing some of that tense, business-like rigidity.
"That song... is indeed my truth."
He looked up, his eyes sharp, but beneath the edge, there was warmth.
"When the world plays dirty, you fight with something even sharper.
But... no one should ever have to go through what you two did because of it."
His voice lowered, serious and heavy.
"I didn't write that song to save idols.
I wrote it... so I can burn anyone who tries to hurt them alive."
Silence fell again, but this time, it was warm and comforting.
Raito wiped under his eye quickly and let out a shaky laugh.
"Man... you could've warned us we'd end up crying over your solo MV!"
Tsuki just nodded once, respectfully and quietly, speaking for both of them.
"...Thank you, Ibara-san."
Outside the window, the wind brushed past as if answering.
Deep inside their hearts, the sun and moon shone a little brighter, knowing their shadows were not alone anymore.
🌙🖤☀️
Suddenly, Raito's eyes sparkled like he had just been struck by lightning.
"Wait a second... If Ibara gets a solo MV..."
He turned to Tsuki with a mischievous grin.
"Then we should too! Individual ones!"
Tsuki didn't flinch. He looked at Raito for three full seconds... then gave one slow, firm nod.
"...Yeah. You do yours first."
"YES!" Raito clapped his hands excitedly. "Mine is gonna be brighter than the sun! Full of dance moves, confetti explosions, glitter everywhere—"
Ibara spoke up, his voice low but not unkind.
"Just don't collapse mid-take."
Tsuki shot him a flat look.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure he drinks enough water."
Raito stuck his tongue out playfully, then turned back to Ibara with a determined smile.
"And you're directing it!"
"No." Immediate refusal.
...Then, after a brief pause, Ibara sighed.
"...Fine. But absolutely no crying on camera."
🎬☀️🌙
Later that day.
The Light Music Clubroom was warm with the afternoon sun.
Polar Opposites stood before Koga Oogami—tall, grey-haired, arms crossed firmly over his chest. Not just as a senior, but as their club president.
And right behind him stood Rei Sakuma, his crimson eyes narrowed with interest.
"A solo MV?" Koga repeated, his voice deep and rumbling. "You two? After just getting out of the hospital?"
Raito grinned, bright and unshakable.
"Exactly! We're back! And we wanna shine even harder than before!"
Tsuki nodded beside him.
"We've already got Ibara on director duty."
Rei raised an eyebrow, a small smile playing on his lips.
"...Ibara is directing? Hm. Then it might actually turn out to be something good."
Koga stared at them for a long second, assessing their determination... then smirked.
"...Fine."
He tossed a microphone from the desk straight toward Raito.
"But if you collapse again—I'm personally carrying you back to that hospital bed myself."
Raito caught it with a loud laugh.
"Deal!"
Tsuki sighed quietly, though his eyes were smiling.
"...I'll make sure he doesn't push too far."
Rei leaned forward slightly, his voice soft but firm, carrying the weight of experience.
"Then let's make it mean something.
Not just a recovery..."
"Make it a Comeback."
The room fell still.
Raito raised the microphone like it was a sword, grinning at his partner beside him.
"Let's light up the world—one song at a time."
🎧🔥🌙☀️
Kaoru leaned in the doorway, watching them with a gentle smile.
Behind him, Hinata and Yuta waved encouragingly.
"Go for it, you two! Show them what the sun and moon are really made of!"
Raito winked confidently.
Next to him, Tsuki's expression was quiet, but filled with unwavering determination.
"We will."
The COSMIC studio was alive with energy.
Lights were blazing, cameras were rolling, and in the center of it all stood Polar Opposites.
Raito bounced on his toes, adjusting his golden jacket.
"I feel like a shooting star!"
Tsuki adjusted his silver scarf, looking slightly exasperated.
"You are literally wearing half the glitter inventory in the company."
Behind them, Ibara stood tall, megaphone in hand, radiating absolute authority.
"Positions. Now. And Raito?"
"...Don't smile too hard. You are an idol, not a solar flare."
The crew and staff laughed, easing the tension.
From the sidelines, the other idols watched like proud older siblings.
- Nagisa fanned himself dramatically. "They are truly glowing!"
- Hiyori smiled softly, hands clasped. "They've come so far..."
- Jun waved with both hands. "Break a leg! But please, not literally!"
"Tsuki! Work that cool aura!" Hinata yelled out.
"And Raito—you better dance like you mean it!" Yuta added.
Niki jumped up and down excitedly. "They're shining!! I can't take it!!"
HiMERU pushed up his glasses, his voice calm but emotional.
"Data confirms... their chemistry is off the charts."
Kohaku patted Rinne's shoulder. "If they cry during takes again—I'm throwing plushies at them."
Rinne grinned widely. "I'll throw confetti to hide it!"
Shu and Mika exchanged glances and gave silent nods of approval.
Even Reika watched from afar, a slight smirk on her face.
Then—
Silence returned.
Camera rolling.
Music ready.
Ibara raised one hand high...
and lowered it sharply.
"Action."
And just like that—
The sun rose...
And the moon began to glow...

📍 Back at COSMIC Production
Raito sits nervously on the sofa, watching the comments scroll by.
Tsuki stands behind him, arms crossed, watching the screen silently.
Raito turns around, eyes sparkling.
"So? How was it? Did I do good?"
Tsuki looks at him, then at the screen where the words "Heart speak louder than my head" are displayed.
A small, proud smile tugs at his lips.
"...Idiot."
"But yeah... you were amazing."
Raito grins, punching the air.
"YES! Now... get ready. Because your turn is coming next, Moon Boy!"
Tsuki sighs, but his eyes are smiling.
"...Hmph. Bring it on."
🌙☀️🎬✨
To be continued...
