This story is somewhat related to Kabukicho Nights in that the main original characters, Mercedes and Junko, are good friends.  Junko's story takes place at a later date-- they are a bit older, just by a year each. So for those of you who have read what I have completed so far of Kabukicho Nights, you will now know more about Mercedes. ^^;  This one was fun to write for me, as Mercedes is my favorite character to write. I will reveal her family entirely in this story as things progress and even reveal why her name is Mercedes, other than her parents being who they are... 

As another note the first chapter is a prologue, as I felt that writing the entirety of the competition and background out was a bit painstaking and could turn boring really quick. So, for everyone's sake, I cut to the chase.  I know Jungmin would not be this type of person, so consider it alternate universe in a way. ♥ And finally, for anyone interested in my other two stories, I have every intention of continuing each of them. I write multiple fics so that I don't grow bored of one, though, and so I don't lose ideas if I don't map them out in time.

So, if you are still reading, I thank you in advance for even taking the time to click on my story, and hope you enjoy as the story unfolds for the two-- it's going to be a bumpy ride... ♥
