Ranka Lee | Macross Frontier 4/4 [vague spoilers within, be warned!]
A-anyway! Ozma-niisan finally agreed to let me transfer to Mihoshii Academy last night! It took making a lot of hot dogs and pineapple cakes, but it's worth it. They have an entire part of the school for...what did the brochure say? Hold on just a second! [rushes off-screen to find said brochure; stuff goes flying, most of it coming pretty close to toppling the chair over. it's only a minute before a triumphant "ah!" followed by a loud thump and yelp of pain. ranka sits back down, rubbing a red spot on her forehead with hand and holding a glossy brochure in the other.she's over it quickly and flips open the booklet.] "Entertainers and those involved in the entertainment industry." That makes it sound so official. Amazing, right? This is exactly what I need! And Nana-chan and Alto-kun are there so I already I have friends there. [beams...and then lightly bops herself on the head] Oh, right, my question! They want me to bring a sample of my singing so they know what to work on. I wasn't sure which would be better. Do you think this [link to Ai Obete Imasuka] one or this [link to Watashi no Kare wa Pilot] one? I know they're only covers, but that'd be best so they have something to compare to, right?
[frowns in thought, hair droops] It's so confusing. Help, please? [cheers up again, hair returns to normal state]
Third Person: Ranka pushed buttons on her phone aimlessly. It was 2:56 in the morning. Maybe she shouldn't call him, maybe Alto-kun was asleep, maybe he was sleeping in her arms. This wasn't fair to him or Sheryl-san. Ranka could leave right now and have no one look for her until it was too late to stop her.
2:57.
What she was doing was selfish, yes. Ozma-niisan would be angry at her, but...maybe this once she could be selfish. There was nothing left on Frontier. She couldn't stop the Vajra from attacking with her song. The government kept looking to her for an answer she couldn't give them anymore. Nana-chan was in the hospital. So many had died because she couldn't step up when the time called for it. But most important of all, she knew she didn't have a chance. Not anymore. There, on the roof of the arena, Ranka had seen the way Alto and Sheryl looked at each other. There was no mistake. That was the way she looked at Alto, and that had been the way she had wanted him to look at her since the moment they'd met. It was better if she left. Maybe out there she could find out why her song had worked and maybe she could find another one that protected those she left behind. There were many maybes. Elmer-san said that you had to take that first big, super-huge step into the unknown if you wanted something. This was going to be one of them.
2:58.
Ranka couldn't be mad or jealous of Sheryl. The answer was simple as to why not: she made Alto happy. That was all she had ever wanted for him. If he could be happy with someone else then Ranka could accept it. Even now, as she scrolled to his number in her contacts list, she hoped he would be happier after all of this. She wouldn't see it, but the thought of the small smile on his face as the wind blew his long hair caused her to do the same.
2:59.
Alto-kun.... She wanted to remember that smile, that laugh, that gentle kindness. His was the last face she wanted to see before she headed towards whatever the unknown held for her. For his image to carry her out of Frontier and beyond on wings he'd folded himself.
This was all she wanted.
3:00.
Ranka pushed "Dial" and waited the longest twenty seconds of her life.
