Izumi: (After successfully escaping from Hyuuga, Yoshimaru and Santa go to deliver the alliance request message to Tanuki Castle…)
(But the message that was delivered was Waka-sama of Tsuru Castle’s love letter to the princess of Kitsune Castle. Thus, the alliance was broken…)
(Hyuuga gets a letter from Inoshishi Castle saying they’ve declared war with Kitsune Castle. He then confronts Yoshimaru and Santa once again.)
Hyuuga: “War couldn’t be avoided in the end. It seems Tanuki Castle is standing for Inoshishi Castle.”
Kiichi: “Eh!? Why!?”
Santa: “It looks like they found out that the princess of Kitsune Castle and Waka-sama of Tsuru Castle have been in touch.”
“The lord of Tanuki Castle was planning to marry the princess with Waka-sama of Tsuru castle, so it seems an alliance with Kitsune Castle won’t be possible.”
Kiichi: “By found out, uh, could it be that…”
Yoshimaru: “It seems I brought the wrong letter again~…”
Kiichi: “For real…”
Hyuuga: “It can’t be helped… As a ninja of Iga, I can’t overlook people from Koka.”
Yoshimaru: “——Whoah.”
Kiichi: “Hyuuga!”
Hyuuga: “Kiichi, you fight too. Don’t forget your knowledge as a ninja.”
Kiichi: “Death to trai——.”
Yoshimaru: “Is there no choice but to fight?”
Santa: “Let’s go, Yoshimaru!”
Kiichi: “——tch.”
Hyuuga: “Eh, oi! Which one are you fighting!?”
Yoshimaru: “Ha!”
Santa: “——Yoshimaru!?”
Izumi: (Kiichi and Yoshimaru decide to fight against the decision of their respective villages… A melee between the four is the action highlight of the play.”
Kiichi: “Agh!”
Hyuuga: “Your enemy is people from Koka, you know, Kiichi!”
Santa: “Are you going to betray, Yoshimaru!?”
Kiichi: “You become friends if you drink together once!”
Yoshimaru: “You become brothers if you drink together everyday!”
Kiichi: “That’s right, Yosshi—I!”
Yoshimaru: “Let’s go, brother!”
Hyuuga: “You’ll be hunted by people from the village, you know!”
Santa: “Don’t do anything stupid!”
Yoshimaru: “Bye!”
Kiichi: “Adieu!”

Izumi: (The two have been hunted by people from Iga and Koka, their respective villages…)
Yoshimaru: “The pursuers sure are something~.”
Kiichi: “There has to be something worth doing rather than chasing us.”
Yoshimaru: “There are also the shock troops. Fugitive ninjas won’t come out in haste, so they must be determined~.”
Kiichi: “It’s so annoying.”
Yoshimaru: “But I think we’re going to be killed at this rate. What should we do?”
Kiichi: “And we don’t want to quit being a ninja either~.”
Yoshimaru: “That’s right. If only we didn’t have to fight~.”
Kiichi: “Should we try to stop the fight?”
Yoshimaru: “So we have to say something like, ‘Eh~ Stop fighting!’?”
Kiichi: “Now that I think about it, if we bring Tanuki Castle to Kitsune Castle’s side, don’t you think they will tell Inoshishi Castle to stop fighting Kitsune Castle?”
Yoshimaru: “Well, yeah~. But it has failed because of us~.”
Kiichi: “But if we bring Tsuru Castle to Kitsune Castle’s side, it’ll be two versus two.”
“And Inoshishi Castle will stop attacking Kitsune Castle, don’t you think?”
Yoshimaru: “Eh~. Is that so?”
Kiichi: “I don’t know, though.”
Yoshimaru: “Should we try it?”
Kiichi: “Yup! Let’s make a fake love letter from the princess of Kitsune Castle and deliver it to Waka-sama of Tsuru Castle. Maybe he’ll help us!”
Yoshimaru: “It sounds good~!”

Izumi: (They pretend to be delivering a letter from the princess of Kitsune Castle and propose an alliance with Tsuru Castle…)
Waka-sama: “…Is this really a letter from the princess?”
Yoshimaru: “Eh!?”
Kiichi: “Of course! Look, even the handwriting is perfectly similar——.”
Waka-sama: “Perfectly similar?”
Yoshimaru: “Kii-chan, you fool——.”
Waka-sama: “Did you plot this!?”
Kiichi: “N-no! This is just a misunderstanding!”
Waka-sama: “Ekei! Enough of your excuses! Who are you!? You must be thieves, right!”
Izumi: (Anyone wouldn’t have thought that this is only Kumon-kun’s second time performing. He’s getting used to it.)
(Since the two’s combination is natural, Kumon-kun can mixed with them without difficulty.)

Kiichi: “Whoaaa!”
Yoshimaru: “What should we do?”
Kiichi: “What to do….”
Yoshimaru: “He won’t believe us no matter how many times we deliver a letter to him.”
Kiichi: “Yeah….”
“Maybe if the princess herself delivers the letter…”
Yoshimaru: “That’s impossible~.”
“….Ah, that’s right!”

Izumi: (The troubled Yoshimaru decides to ask a female ninja for help…)
Sae: “So you want me to dress up as the princess of Kitsune Castle and trick Waka-sama from Tsuru Castle and make him promise to form an alliance.”
Yoshimaru: “Please~. You’re the one who can do this.”
Sae: “Ten gold coins.”
Yoshimaru: “Cut it to five!”
Sae: “Ten.”
Yoshimaru: “Seven!”
Sae: “Ten.”
Yoshimaru: “Eight!”
Sae: “Hah?”
Yoshimaru: “Nine!”
Sae: “Good bye~.”
Yoshimaru: “Ugh…. Okay.”
Sae: “Thank you for your continued patronage.”
Kiichi: “Is this female ninja really all right?”
Sae: “Are you doubting me? Well, you’ll see.”
Izumi: (The adlibs for today’s performance are a lot compared to yesterday…! The audience are also excited, the flow is nice!)

Kiichi: “…Okay, let’s go.”
Yoshimaru: “There aren’t anyone here. No problem.”
Sae: “….”
Soldier: “Who!?”
Sae: “Which part of this is no problem?”
Yoshimaru: “Ha!”
Kiichi: “——tch.”
Soldier: “Get them! They’re thieves!”
Kiichi: “Ha!”
Sae: “I’ll leave the rest to you.”
Kiichi: “Eh, wait, help us a bit——!.”

Waka-sama: “What’s with the ruckus?”
Sae: “Excuse me.”
Waka-sama: “You are——.”
Sae: “I’m Princess Ichino from Kitsune Castle.”
Waka-sama: “Pr-princess Ichino!? Why are you——.”
Sae: “I come to tell you my real feelings.”
Waka-sama: “Real feelings…?”
Sae: “Kitsune Castle is currenty in crisis due to Inoshishi Castle’s attack.”
“If Kitsune Castle loses, I could be held captive by Inoshishi Castle. It’d be impossible for me to be in relationship with Waka-sama, then…”
”That’s why before that happens, I want to meet you even for a second…”
Waka-sama: “Princess…. such pitiful things…”
Izumi: (The difference between her miserliness is amazing. Yuki-kun is also in his top form.)
Waka-sama: “I won’t let Inoshishi Castle do as they please! I’m going to ask father to help Kitsune Castle!”
Sae: “He’s easy…”
Waka-sama: “Did you say something, Princess?”
Sae: “No, nothing…”
Kiichi: “Waka-sama is easy!”
Yoshimaru: “Year! We can avoid the war with this!”

Izumi: (After Kitsune Castle safely forms an alliance with Tsuru Castle, Inoshishi Castle stops attacking Kitsune Castle.)
(Now that the battle is avoided, Prince of Tsuru Castle and Princess of Kitsune Castle get married…)
Yoshimaru: “Phew, we had it tough.”
Kiichi: “It really is.”
Yoshimaru: “But I got a special reward due to the fact that the princess of Kitsune Castle could marry Waka-sama of Tsuru Castle. The outcome is an occasion for great joy.”
Kiichi: “But I wonder how the princess of Kitsune Castle looks like. If her face is different from Sae’s, that’ll be bad news, right.”
Yoshimaru: “Well, I think she looks somewhat similar, so we’ll be fine, right~?”
Kiichi: “They look really different, right.”
Yoshimaru: “Rather than that, how about the princess of Tanuki Castle?”
Kiichi: “She got two-timed.”
Yoshimaru: “If things don’t go well, maybe a war will break out between Tanuki Castle and Tsuru Castle…”
Kiichi: “….”
Yoshimaru: “…..”
Kiichi: “Well, whatever.”
Yoshimaru: “Now that things have ended safely, should we celebrate it~?”
Kiichi: “Yeaaay!”
Santa: “Cut it out!”
Hyuuga: “Learn your lesson a little bit!”
Yoshimaru: “!?”
Kiichi: “!!”
Hyuuga: “You’ll be punished at the village!”
Santa: “You will also do some indoor works at the village!”
Yoshimaru: “Eeeeh~!?”
Kiichi: “It can’t be~!”

Banri: Pfft! It’s more energetic than yesterday!
Taichi: Ahaha!
Azuma: Fufu, this is really a Summer Troupe-like play.
Audience A: Today was also interesting~!
Audience B: It feels loose today; it’s nice!

Izumi: …..
(The responses from the play, huh… We received positive feedback this time too. I’m glad.)
(There are also a lot of feedbacks for the flyer design.)
(Kazunari-kun wasn’t able to come up with any idea for the his art homework. I think he poured that frustration feelings into the flyers.)
(He got more fired up than usual and came up with a lot of rough designs…)
(It seems he wouldn’t let go of Tsuzuru-kun until he said his opinion…)
Misumi: Let’s go~!
Kazunari: That’s good!
Izumi: ?
(It’s somewhat lively outside.)

Izumi: Where are you guys going?
Muku: Ah! We’re going to do a strict act after this.
Izumi: Eeh?
Kumon: Our body will become dull on holiday~.
Yuki: It’s only an hour, okay.
Tenma: Let’s go.
Izumi: Today is holiday so you should re——, they’re not listening. Geez…
Well, whatever…
(Should I drink some tea?)
Hm?
(The warehouse’s door is opened…)
(Now that I think about it, even though Kazunari-kun has declined the overseas study offer, he said he wanted to draw something at least…)

Izumi: Whoa——.
Amazing….
(Fireworks in the night sky… It’s dazzlingly bright. This picture is bursting with vibrant; it somehow feels like Summer Troupe)
….Eh, is this the caption?

Title: To the past me.
Creator: Kazunari Miyoshi. Third Year of Japanese Painting Major. Veludo University of Art.
Right now, I’m spending my days throwing my heart and soul to my beloved drawings, my beloved friends and my beloved theater.
I don’t know what kind of path that I’ll go ahead since it’s a new type of creator. It’s UMC (Ultra Multi Creator).
Nobody never taken this path before. And nobody never find the way to a path that has never been taken.
The current me is working hard towards that goal. I’m getting lost halfway, but this is the result of me choosing the “present” that I won’t regret.

Izumi: (This is just like Kazunari-kun…)
(I’m sure Kazunari-kun will go towards the future in his own way.)
(Piling up his important “present”….)
