“Polý fo̱teinó,” Percy said, raising an arm to cover his face, the bright orange stage lights beating down on him harshly, which actually helped out a bit. “So bright… It hurts my eyes.” Still holding up an arm to his face, Percy tries to sit up. But no matter how much he tried, he couldn’t get up. For some reason, however hard he struggled, he just couldn’t bend his back to give him the push he needed to sit. And he felt heavy, and big, which was new for him.            Frustrated, Percy craned his neck to get a glimpse of what exactly was preventing him from getting up. What he saw

Students surrounded the bulletin board as soon as they found out that the official cast list for one of the drama major classes was out. A sea of people crowded around the cork board to see if their names made it, oftentimes dejectedly muttering when they couldn’t spot their name. Actually, everyone who checked for their name went away frustrated and distraught, considering that the people who actually made the cast list weren’t there. And there were only nine names on that single piece of paper.            Olympus only knew where they’d run off to.              As the day slowed to a close, more and more people came up t

Chapter 8 MELISSA The trip to the cafeteria was quick. Maybe Myka and Natsuki’s chattering distracted me enough throughout the journey because it sure wasn’t all that noisy between Masato and I. I mean, we weren’t even talking, much less chatting with each other.            “So what exactly did you put in these cookies, Natsuki-kun?” Myka asked. Oh, so they were on a first-name basis now, huh? I was sure they called to each other by name earlier, but I must’ve missed or something. Probably because Masato was just there, being the distracting human being he was.            “Oh, just some carrots

Chapter 7 MELISSA Okay, this day couldn’t get any weirder.            First, Myka showed me a magic notebook this morning.            Second, we got transported to the UtaPri world.            Third, I actually talked to Masato Hijirikawa.            Fourth, Myka had fallen on top of Natsuki (but that wasn’t really weird; Myka trips a lot), and Natsuki didn’t even attempt to push her off (and that was weird).            Fifth, Masato and I were looking at each other.            Sixth, Neither one of us were looking away.    Just then, I felt myself being pushed and went crashing into Masato’s chest.  

Chapter 6 NATSUKI Myka-chan and I walked side-by-side as we headed back towards the school. Along the way I asked her what happened when I was out cold, and she just answered that she found me sprawled on the ground. She tried to wake me up repeatedly before I came to, and was super relieved when I finally opened my eyes. She didn’t say anything more than that, though, so I let the matter drop and instead asked her about what she liked.            “Well, I like reading and writing,” she said, putting her hands in her coat pockets as she talked. “I’m actually working on something right now.”          

WARNING: For language because Satsuki has a dirty little mouth! Chapter 5 MYKA As I walked out into the sunlight, I wondered for the nth time if leaving Melissa alone in that hall was a wise choice. I mean, sure Masato would hear if she got into any trouble because he’d be just behind the door, but we were in a foreign land here, literally in another dimension. Usually in cases like these, it was not wise to split up.            A soft crack under my feet made me stop walking. I looked down at my shoe and lifted my foot up, cringing when I discovered that it was a pair of eyeglasses. As an owner of a pair back home, I felt super gu

Chapter 4 MASATO A knock sounded from the door. I looked at it a moment before getting up to answer it, wondering who it could be. I didn’t tell anybody that I would be in here today. Maybe they heard me playing and just wanted to see who was inside. Regardless, I opened the door.            I was not met with Otoya’s or Shinomiya’s or Jinguuji’s face when I opened the door. Instead, a girl with dark brown hair and cool blue eyes greeted me. A little ways behind her stood another girl, this one with long dark hair and green eyes. I’d never seen them before and it made me wonder who they were.            The

Chapter 3 MYKA Melissa and I stood stock still, just staring at each other for a few minutes inside the breezy lobby of the school. I mean, we could’ve sat at any of the fluffy-looking couches, or paced around because we still didn’t know how we ended up here. Instead both of us were standing still.            That was, until both of us decided to scream at the same time. The shrill ring of our voices echoed in the empty space. I rushed to her and clutched to her arm like a vise, feeling her gripping mine just as tightly.              “Oh, shite, oh, shite, oh, shite, we’re in an anime!” I sad, barely contro

Chapter 2 MELISSA I groaned and turned to my side, opening my eyes in the process. Disorientation caught me off guard for a moment and everything was blurry. The only thing I could make out was a green-and-yellow blob near me and tall reddish-brown things.            My vision cleared up after a while, and a dull throbbing in my head replaced the blurriness. I held my head as I tried to sit up, groaning slightly. I blinked a few times and took in my surroundings.            I was sitting on the floor in a very spacious room. Everything was made of wood, all very big, beautiful, and immaculately shiny. I looked at the pillars, the staircases

Chapter 1 MYKA “Mel, Mel!” I shouted at her, wanting to tell her about the notebook before the students file in for the flag salute and the practice for the seniors’ cheer-dance routine would begin.            “What is it?” she asked, putting down her bags beside mine on the ground, having just gotten to school.            “You will never guess what happened last night!” I stage-whispered, taking out the notebook from my bag and clutching it with both hands to my chest.            “What happened?” Melissa said, eyeing the bound pieces of paper curiously.            I looked aroun
