Pokemon: Rainbow Superstars (IC thread

Let's get the adventure going--sign ups will still be open if someone wants to join in.

The sun shone down of a majestic idol academy somewhere in Kanto, where throngs of aspiring idols both male and female listened to the chief idol and principal welcome them. "...By coming here today, you will learn more than just how to dance around in cute costumes and sing..." Giggles went up at this. "You'll learn how to find your own unique voice as an idol, and make friends and memories that will last a lifetime."

She smiled. "So on behalf of all of us here at Rainbow Idol Academy...welcome."

Cheers filled the air as party poppers went off and confetti rained down on the grass before orderly lines began forming to receive their Superstar Pendants and be shown to their Closets, where the students would live while pursuing their idol studies.

A black haired boy sighed nostalgically before toying with the red pendant he wore. "Seems like only yesterday you were one of those aspiring idols, Serena."

"Yeah--I can't wait to see what this year's class brings." a blonde haired girl agreed.

 

Tour guides were waiting at the front of the line to show students to their Closets. They would show the students how to invoke the pendants to take them there, and disappear in an appropriately colored flash of light to Arceus knew where--at least to those still in line.

Among the idols welcoming the new students to the academy was the idol unit Miracolore--four best friends who were a dual threat in both music and acting.

The leader of the group, Brock, was known far and wide for his storytelling and music, but also an equally capable voice actor as well. He had started out with some bit parts and cameos, before getting his big break by voicing the Lucario idol Aaron Steele in the movie "Poketopia". That was quickly followed by his best known role--voicing and providing the drums for Midorichou, a major character in the TV show "Legendary Idol Kochou"

On campus, he was the chief Performance teacher, although both he and fellow idol Ash would often speak to actors about voice acting


Ash was the energetic member of the group--skilled with wind instruments, singing and voice acting. His best known role was the title character of "Legendary Idol Kochou", but he was happy to play any heroic or comic role, making him the one to call for voicing heroes and goofy characters.

On campus, he taught vocal classes and gave private lessons to those interested in playing flutes or the trumpet. He was never without Tintri, his faithful Pikachu, who was observing the crowd of students from his master's shoulder.

Misty was often the group's media representative, but onstage, she sang as well as playing piano and her beloved fiddle, which often made an appearance when a song had a contry or folk flare, or a rock take on a session tune.

On campus, she taught the communication classes, as well as offering private piano and fiddle lessons to any who wished to learn.

Serena was Ash's best friend, but even though she had her own unique voice, her friend was still a deep influence on her style. Her favorite part of performing was the dancing, with the press often raving on her agility and skill. She had also be trying out voice acting, although she had yet to land a major role.

On campus, she taught dance classes, and gave one on one dance lessons to any that wanted it or needed it.

For the moment, her faithful Braxien Krystal was by her side, looking out the crowds.

Some guides saw the girl tumble to the ground, and her Parchirisu panic. They rushed over and helped the girl up.

"Krystal, take this to that girl." Serena instructed Krystal, giving the Braxien a bottle of water.

[Right away!] Krystal replied, and hurried over to where two guides were tending to the girl. [Are you okay?] she asked, offering the water to the girl.

"That's good." a guide smiled as she watched Krystal hurry to the girl's side with water.

"Stay with the girl while I take this girl to her Closet." the guide told her partner before addressing Wilma again. "Did you notice the pendant you received? This will allow you to go anywhere on campus and change into costumes in the blink of an eye. For now, just tell it 'Agate Superstar, take me home!'"

A Braxien arrived with another bottle of water. [Here you go.] she smiled--she noticed the girl was sweating profusely as some guides arrived to take her and her Hariyama somewhere cool.

She hurried back to her master's side. I could get used to being a delivery-mon! she smiled as Serena sent her out into the crowd to deliver more water to those that needed it. The boys were nearby, opening more water cases to replenish their supply.

Luckily, the line moved quickly, and before long, it was Mel's turn in line.

The registrar gave Mel a box with her pendant inside. "Here you go--a guide will teach you how to use it." she explained.

"Did you notice the pendant you received?" the guide asked. "This will allow you to go anywhere on campus and change into costumes in the blink of an eye. For now, just tell it 'Agate Superstar, take me home!'"
