Keeping his own pleasant smile in place, Akihiko lead Hiroki over to a very secluded section behind the Heaven set.
"Yes, I did want to talk to you." he spoke, keeping his voice down. "Izzy was supposed to sit in box 3... I've had him moved for reasons I'm sure you understand." Narcissus was being very careful not to be overheard. "This is a perfect opportunity for you to gauge Matsumoto, Asato. I'm still convinced he orchestrated all of this..." pacing slightly, the musician was obviously worried.
Without realizing it, Akihiko wrapped his arms around his waist as he spoke. "I just can't take the thought of him sitting up there... watching... like a b*****d who thinks he's gotten away with it."

Hiroki's face held concern as he heard about the seat. "I'm glad he was moved. I don't think he needs that stress." It was obvious that Hiroki did care about Izzy's well being even if he and Koyasu-kun didn't get along at all.
"I'm going to be sitting next to the man so yes, I did plan on talking to him in depth. He wants to talk about...partnership opportunities between Ohayou and Smash. Of course, I'm sure you've heard that he' been speaking with Go Records. I think that there is interest in a merger there...but it seems Matsumoto-san is testing the waters."
He paused and watched the unusual body posture of Koyasu-kun. It wasn't normal but Hiroki knew if he pointed it out, he'd get just a defensive response, "No, I wouldn't want Izzy Lucky to have to go through that. Even if we don't know who's responsible...yet."
It frustrated Hiroki that only one man on this earth seemed to get Koyasu-kun's attentions. Why couldn't the man feel that way about Ohayou. Well, there was nothing Hiroki could do and he certainly wasn't about to say anything about it considering the performance coming up. "So do you need anything else before I leave?"

Apparently, Hiroki was going to do just what the young Koyasu had thought he would do.
It actually made the musician somewhat happy to see that the older man wasn't going to just try and play nice all the time.
Strangely... very strangely however... Akihiko nodded. "Yeah... I did need something else, Asato." he spoke, somewhat hesitantly at first. "Could... could you arrange for a psychiatrist for me? I mean, not right now, but after the concert."
Then suddenly, the man seemed stronger after he'd voiced that request.
"It's nothing major." he spoke, waving it away with one hand as if it were nothing. "I just want a little outside help dealing with the addiction feelings. That's all. I mean, Ohayou would be in the s**t if I started taking drugs... so I'd like to get help for that before I can't control it anymore, ne? Just... don't tell Izzy. He doesn't need anything else to worry about right now."

It took a bit of effort to keep his mask in place when Koyasu-kun revealed a need that for once, Hiroki thought might actually be a real feeling from the man. "I'll arrange it for you and send you the information. I won't tell Izzy Lucky. I can arrange your appointment to coincide with his so he will never know."
"Of course." he replied trying to help lighten the mood as Koyasu-kun tried to play it off as 'nothing serious'. However, they both knew dang well it was. "Yes, Izzy Lucky doesn't need anything additional to worry about." he answered and noted that he'd make this call and set up the information before the night was over.
"Oh...and my secretary has already found a few flats to replace the one Izzy lost. So, we're going to sit down with him next week and show him some homes if he's ready to look. I figured having someone do a little leg work to help out might help Ishi-san feel a bit more comfortable." he said hoping that would give Koyasu-san something more pleasant to think about.

Narcissus smirked, "Actually... I was thinking of taking Izzy on a little vacation after the concert. Shou-san invited us both. Course, Izzy doesn't know that yet..." laughing softly, the devil of a man nodded. "But I'm sure he'll enjoy looking at some new places. I think he feels a little cooped up in my place... what with a serious lack of windows or light for that matter..."
He didn't say his thanks however in regards to the request.
In fact, Akihiko wanted to drop that subject altogether.
It really did make him feel like lighting up another cigarette...

"A vacation?" Hiroki smile a bit more with that thought, "I'm sure he needs one. As much as we try to keep him from doing his job he keeps trying." Of course the thought of Koyasu-kun having a while with Shou made him thoughtful as well. Hopefully, getting the star to open up...yes, he could hope eventually to pull Shou away from Smash.
"Ah, yes, as I remember Izzy Lucky's last home had a few broad windows. So he might need a little more sunshine. It's good for the soul too."
"But maybe I should be going to my box now. I wouldn't want to keep my company waiting too long." He sighed softly rather surprised that for once they didn't go at each others throats. A good thing...yes but unexpected. And for once Hiroki felt like he needed a cigarette too. Maybe he'd have just one...before going up to see Matsumoto. He wasn't a heavy smoker just sometimes he needed one every now and then. Reaching into his pocket he pulled out a pack, then said, "I look forward to the show." as he turned away to walk towards the exit.

What a shock, it was so surprising,
You looked so small and frail------------------------------------------------}:-  Izzy Lucky
At times life can be so enlightening .uoy no nrut nac ti tuB
........Show Time!!.........
Meanwhile, Izzy had found his way to Box 3. It seems like a good place to watch the show. Izzy slipped into his seat and was about to enjoy the show when a voice spoke up not far behind him from a very comfortable chair. "Ah, so you're Narcissus' manager. We finally get to meet in person."
Izzy glanced back to see a man sitting in the comfortable chair smoking a thin...cigar. Matsumoto Izo smiled revealing his teeth as he looked Izzy Lucky up and down. "I'm Matsumoto Izo, Chairman of SMASH. You're becoming quite a famous manager I daresay. Managing two stars like that must be a challenge. I've heard you've had a few rough days. Are you feeling better now?" His toothy grin continued as if he were the wolf to pounce a lamb.
The older man unnerved Izzy especially after the few words Akihiko had told him about Matsumoto Izo. But what could he do...except try to be very much in business mode. His voice was still a bit off from the injuries to his throat, "I'm doing better yes. Thank you for asking. I'm looking forward to hearing my stars perform." Izzy purposely left his conversation short because he didn't feel comfortable at all! He could feel with every inch of his being the reasons why Akihiko was suspicious of this man, whose eyes seem to be fixated on him.
"Ah...Indeed. It would have been difficult on Narcissus had you been out of commission too long. Such a pity. I saw your apartment on the news. It's a good thing you weren't in there at the time." He got up from his seat and moved a bit closer to stand behind Izzy's chair., "You know, I was rather surprised that you didn't give me so much as a reply on my offer to Narcissus."
"Mm? Well, sir... It would have been inappropriate for me to take any offer without a lawyer present. Besides, the offer was for Narcissus-san, not for myself." he answered in a matter of fact tone not turning around in his seat. " And while the offer was generous for my Star, It was his decision to make, not mine. He made a good choice as far as I'm concerned." He glanced back and up at the man. Yes, Izzy in his own arena, the music business, he wasn't a fearful person even if inside Matsumoto's eyes narrowing caused a shiver to streak up his back.
"Very true, a lawyer could have given better insight into the matter" Matsumoto answered keeping a straight face even if his gaze sharpened. "Well, it does seem that Narcissus is working with SMASH after all since he and Shou are making an album together."
"Yes...I'm sure it will be a very successful album. Shou is a great performer too." Izzy responded wishing Matsumoto's hand that leaned upon the seat's back would just move away!
"Indeed, a very good performer...My Shou." said Matsumoto as his fingertips brushed the edge of Izzy's shoulder. Izzy tried not to flinch but it was difficult. While the man didn't say any words about the incident, he could almost feel as if a wolf was closing in on him.
Matsumoto grinned as he looked down at Izzy's head then leaned down and whispered into Izzy's ear taking away that private space inch by inch, "You're much more interesting than I thought. Not even going to back down now...No wonder Narcissus chose you." The words brushed Izzy's ear give him the wet odor of cigar breath. Izzy stiffened and his throat tightened, he was about to return the comment when Matsumoto stood up and looked over at a young man that had raced in very quickly.
"Izzy Lucky-san! I've been sent by Yamada Haru because...well because...Your Star wanted umm.. you to be closer to his performance!" Ji-kun said almost bursting enthusiastically with his important duty!
Matsumoto glared at the young man but then laughed at the spirited reaction, "Closer to the stage eh? But what if he prefers to stay here and talk to me?"
"YES Sir!" Ji-kun answered diligently and then frowned at the second comment before urgently looking at Izzy Lucky, "I'm suppose to escort you there and make sure you're in your seat or...Yamada-san and possibly Narcissus-sama will have my hide! So please please come now."
Izzy smiled and then stood feeling a wave of relief course through him, "Well, we can't have that, can we Matsumoto-san?"
"No, I suppose not." returned Matsumoto coldly before taking his cigar to his lips causing the end to light up as he sucked in a deep breath of smoke.
"I don't want to be the cause of a scolding from either man." With that, he scooted around the Box and to Ji-kun before looking back at Matsumoto-san, "Enjoy the performances." He then turned and left with Ji-kun while his heart pounded from the moments before.
By the time Ji-kun took him to his new seat, Izzy was feeling much safer among all the people that were singing with Hayato. Something about that voice was familiar but then again he had met the man that night at the Pre-Event party. But rather than standing up with the rest of the fans, Izzy slumped in his chair shaking and taking deep breaths trying to let go his worry from moments before.

I embrace the torn rose to my chest
And fall into the crimson sea... Suddenly, the lights dimmed to a deep, muted purple, only a gauzy blue spotlight highlighting Hayato on the stage. The music had stopped, a dead silence. The fans cheered, begging for more. Hayato stood there, still as a statue, his hair hanging over his face as he stood there, bowing over in a beautiful pose. For a long moment, he let the crowd hang, their cheers becoming cries for more. Then the music came up again, a slow, deep song. A song of a memory, a dream, and a prayer. A thick fog came across the stage, making it appear as though Hayato were standing on clouds as he began to sing.
Unable to find even a place to go
I slowly tie my memories to a thin thread
To stop them disappearing into the wind
I listened carefully to the noisy voice in my heart
And asked myself
Yeah, why on earth
Was I born?
The moon keeps staring at me, unchanging
It’s not giving me an answer now
Let me hear
Your voice…
Show me
Your dreams…
I’m not even afraid of falling
Into a sleep I can't wake up from
Tell me
The truth…
Tell me
About your sins…
The figure you’ve hidden
Is crying floods of red tears…
Only my love is growing bigger
Unable to recall
Even the name of the past
I can’t do anything with it
The moon, unchanging, quiet as ever
Kept sending down rain…

(((OOC: BTW Nakai is up next onto the stage, then Chiyou, then the group. So whenever you can finish Hayato's performance up, I'll post up Kai's)))
~ ~ ~
"Be careful, Asato." Akihiko suddenly spoke up, blue gaze fixed on the older man. "I wouldn't want you the next target of Matsumoto Izo. ********... I wouldn't want anyone his target for that matter."
With that said, Narcissus left the secluded corner of Heaven and rejoined his band, Shou's band, and Shou himself.
"Seems like Hayato-san's nearly done with his set. I think Nakai's up next... wonder why he isn't here..." the musician mused.
Of course, the reason for that was simple.
One of the strings on Kai's guitar had snapped, and he was frantically working to replace it before curtain.

I embrace the torn rose to my chest
And fall into the crimson sea...It was his last song....the last time he would be heard tonight. He hoped Naoko would hear him,and, perhaps, find it in his heart to forgive him. He hoped, even beyond that, that Sai would hear him, and come back to him...or at the very least, Shou would notice his words, hear the beckoning in his voice, know, somehow, that all along, this song was meant for him. This was Sai's song. This was Shou's song. Even if he hadn't known it, his heart had written these lyrics just for that one mysterious, alluring angel. Hayato sang with every ounce of his passion, this final plea to heaven, as the crowds moved in rhythm, a perfect unison like the ebb and flow of the tide, to his song.
I softly grabbed the trembling body
And peered at the face of the angel sleeping next to me
Inside of stillness and silence that I have never before seen
I had a nightmare of light that burned my eyes
Tomorrow in the night sky
Will I be able to see the stars that seem to be scattered now...
I entangled my fingers into your hair which flutters in the wind
I embraced you and we exchanged kisses
You back then were the same as me right now...
You gazed at the cold wind all alone
Right now we can understand each other
Even the reason why your tears flowed back then
Even your scent which I had forgotten
I remember it, and count the overflowing tears
As I softly sing "your song" to myself
Just like that day, I sketch in the night sky with my finger
I carry it... to where you are
Very soon... see... We can meet
Even your scent which I had forgotten
I remember it, and count the overflowing tears
As I softly sing "your song" to myself
Just like that day, I'm sketching in the night sky with my finger
Even the door to the death wish that I see close by
Can feel the mild warmth
As I softly sing your name to myself
Just like that day, I'll always give you my love
I carry it... my everything
Surely, once again... see... We can meet

As the song ended, the light began to fade until it was a complete blackout. Screams echoed around the auditorium, some fans chanting over and over, "Hayato! Hayato! Hayato!" If nothing else, at the very least Matsumoto would be pleased that he still had a great fan base and would be a moneymaker. Heaven knows, once word got around about earlier, and he well knew it would, the chairman wouldn't exactly be happy. He expected an earful, but little or no more. Exiting through the back, Hayato exhaled, smiling to himself. He had done it, given a great comeback performance. An amazing one, really, given his circumstances. Standing backstage, the raven-haired man noticed a very cute young boy. A blond. Something seemed so innocent about the kid. Reminded him of...of... He couldn't quite place it, but it reminded him of something... Looking across the way, he saw Shou, Naoko...and their group snapping photos. Naoko was certainly still beautiful to him...but now it was a sort of beautiful that made him feel slightly sick inside. Beautiful like a crushed rose...and he had been the one to do the crushing. Staring over at Shou for a long while, Hayato finally turned, looking at the little blond. Hadn't he seen this child before? He wasn't quite sure... "So.....you ready to get out there? I'm Hayato, by the way." he asked, introducing himself casually. ( Artist: Gackt Song: Death Wish Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3blKvBSqZWw ) I continue dancing upon
