Chapter 743: Moonlight and Tsukuyomi Stepping into the Spotlight



As Theo, Aurora, and Ayia stood on the sleek, polished tarmac of the private Yamada family hangar, they gazed out at the blacked-out van parked nearby. The private plane had just completed its descent into the bustling city of Catadrid, one of the most vibrant cities in the Sakura Abode Country. The cool air carried the faint scent of jet fuel mixed with the distant hum of airport machinery, reminding them of the importance of their arrival. For the next two days, they would be navigating not as themselves, but as Moonlight and Tsukuyomi, their alter egos-the mysterious, world-famous figures the public was eager to uncover.

"Where are we going now?" Aurora asked, her voice a blend of curiosity and excitement as they waited for the baggage handlers to unload their suitcases and Theo's concert equipment from the plane.

Ayia, their ever-prepared guide and manager, pointed toward the van. "Do you see that blackout van there? That's our ride. We're heading straight to the hotel, which is conveniently close to the concert venue." Her smile widened as she added, "But here's the fun part-you two will put on your disguises in the back of the van. By the time we arrive, there will be fans and staff waiting for Moonlight and Tsukuyomi."

"Although I managed to hide from the media where and how Moonlight would arrive in Catadrid, or if even he would arrive. But the media still managed to find out where Moonlight would stay and do his preparation for the concert. The media here is like a bunch of sharks hunting even the tiniest details." Ayia commented.

"Don't worry, babe." Theo said as he patted her head, "I already expected that. You already did an amazing job hiding where and how we would arrive."

"Thanks, babe." Ayia replied with a content smile as he patted her head.

Theo chuckled at the idea of having to change in the back of a moving van. It felt like a scene out of one of the movies that Newfall, Catadrid's famous film district, was known for. Yet, this was their reality—no longer just Theo and Aurora, but two enigmatic figures whose very identities were shrouded in mystery.

"Seems like we're stepping into our roles early," Aurora said with a giggle, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. There was something thrilling about the secrecy, the need to become someone else even as the world watched.

With everything ready, they followed Ayia to the van, their steps echoing on the hangar floor. Ayia slid into the driver's seat, her signature calm confidence in place as she took the wheel. She too had a role to play-not just as Ayia, their friend and companion, but as the agent of two of the world's most talked-about rising stars.

As they settled into the back of the van, the windows blacked out for privacy, Ayia turned the ignition and smoothly guided the vehicle out of the hangar and onto the roads of Catadrid. Aurora immediately began rummaging through her bags, pulling out her disguise with a mixture of excitement and nervous energy. Theo did the same, already mentally preparing for the transition into Moonlight.

Ayia glanced at them through the rearview mirror as they started changing. "You two ready for this?" she asked, her voice holding a teasing tone. "It's showtime soon."

Theo smirked as he slipped on his red contact lenses, the ones that gave his eyes the appearance of a blood moon glowing within them. It was a surreal transformation, and one that always left him feeling like someone entirely different. "I've been ready since we landed," he said, adjusting his platinum wig and pulling the Kakashi-style mask over his face. His silver eyes, which would instantly give away his identity, were hidden now beneath the lenses, but it was the fierce red glow that made Moonlight's eyes unforgettable to anyone who saw them.

Aurora was equally absorbed in her own transformation. Half of her long hair was now a deep, midnight black, while the other half was pure white, as snowy as the moonlight itself. It was a striking look, one that perfectly mirrored the duality of her character, Tsukuyomi-the moon goddess with two faces: one that shone bright and illuminated the world, and another that remained shrouded in darkness. Her pale eyes, now hidden beneath high-tech white lenses, gave her the appearance of a Byakugan wielder from the world of fantasy, a fitting nod to the mystical nature of her persona.

Her silver mask, dotted with delicate golden sparks, completed the look. "I feel like I'm walking out of a legend," she mused, turning her head to catch a glimpse of her reflection in the back of her phone. "It's like I'm stepping into another world."

"You are," Theo replied, his voice slightly muffled by his mask but laced with

encouragement. "And once we step out of this van, we're Moonlight and Tsukuyomi. No one will be able to recognize us."

Ayia, still focused on the road, chimed in. "That's the point. You two are untouchable now. Just remember, everyone will be watching when we arrive."

Soon, Theo and Aurora transformed into Moonlight and Tsukuyomi.

They tied their long hair and hid them as they put it on buck-bill hats, they also changed into other stylish clothes that hid their physique as well.

The drive through Catadrid was smooth, the van cutting through the city's streets as they passed by towering buildings and wide boulevards lined with palm trees and artfully designed murals. Catadrid was a city of beauty, where creativity oozed from every corner. But none of that distracted the trio from their preparations.

Theo, now fully in Moonlight's persona, glanced out the window, knowing that just beyond the tinted glass, the world was waiting for him. The concert that night would mark his first live performance, and tomorrow he'd attend the Saphire Music Awards as one of the top nominees. He had come a long way from his old life-now, his every move would be scrutinized, every note analyzed. It was exhilarating and terrifying at the same time.

In the backseat, Aurora practiced her breathing exercises, preparing for the moment when the van would stop and they would be thrust into the limelight. Her fingers played with the edge of her mask, a nervous habit, but one that Ayia quickly reassured her about. "You're going to be amazing," she said. "You always are."

As they approached the hotel, the mood inside the van shifted. The playful banter from earlier was replaced with a quiet focus. Through the front windshield, they could see the crowd gathering near the entrance, eager fans waiting for a glimpse of the elusive Moonlight and Tsukuyomi. Their aliases had grown into more than just personas-they were sensations. Everyone wanted to know who the people behind the masks were, but Theo and Aurora knew the importance of keeping that mystery alive.

Ayia brought the van to a stop just outside the hotel entrance. The crowd, kept at bay by security, murmured in anticipation. They could see the flashes of cameras, the buzz of excited voices as fans speculated about the identities of the stars hidden behind their carefully crafted disguises.

"Alright," Ayia said, taking a deep breath as she pulled on her own white disposable mask. "Showtime."

Theo and Aurora exchanged a glance, both of them steeling themselves for what was to come. Then, with a final nod, they stepped out of the van into the awaiting crowd, their identities securely hidden behind their masks and personas. The world would see only Moonlight and Tsukuyomi now, and for the next two days, they would own that stage.
