Prelude- In the Future

Prologue - Mankai Company
Sakuya	(An empty theater warmed by sheer enthusiasm. Every seat is packed. I can sense the quiet excitement and anticipation even behind the curtain.)
Sakuya	(It's closing night. Time to pull out all the stops, everything we've worked toward. All the nerves make my legs feel like noodles.)
Masumi	...
Sakuya	(Masumi's as cool as a cucumber, no surprises there. Sure wish I had half his calm.)
Tsuzuru	...
Sakuya	(Tsuzuru's eyes are glued to the script. There's no way he's thinking of making any changes, right?)
Itaru	...
Sakuya	(Itaru's tense too. I've gotta keep it together, show him there's nothing to worry about. A good leader always keeps his cool.)
Citron	...
Sakuya	(Citron's a complete mystery as usual, but he seems calm enough.)
Sakuya	...
Sakuya	(It'll be okay. I've been scared before, and we've come this far. We've finally made it.)
Sakuya	But I'm trembling, deep down. Maybe all the tension, fright, and excitement, are helping the bud inside of me to blossom.)
Sakuya	(I'm so excited, I'm almost giddy. Today, for the first time, we'll be in full bloom.)
Sakuya	Isn't that right, Director?!
Tsuzuru	I wanna bloom.
Masumi	Make me bloom.
Citron	I would very much like to bloom.
Itaru	You'll help me bloom, right?
Sakuya	Please, Director, help us all bloom on that stage!
