"Welcome to Orlando," a cheery masculine voice calls out.

Jiyoung and Misun are walking ahead of the six young members of Hydrangea; all of them are staring around them at the settings. The voice pulls each of their attentions away from the clear blue sky and the crisp, cooling air.

An average height man, dressed in a formal suit and tie combination is walking toward them from the small staircase of a giant arena building. He has a warm, welcoming smile on his face.

"You must be the CEO of HoT Entertainment, Madame Moon Jiyoung," the man says.

"You can call me, Jiyoung - or Jiyoung-ssi."

The man nods, his attention shifting to the young lady at her side with bright silvery-purple hair. "And Go Misun."

Misun nods as Shinkwan hurries forward to stand at her side.

"It's a pleasure to meet you both," the man continues on as he halts in place before them on the sidewalk.

The Koreans all halt in place, standing before the man and Shinkwan slips his hand into Misun's.

Jiyoung throws her arm out, with a hand extended. "And you must be the General Manager of the Orlando Stars, whom I've been in communication with."

"Please, call me, Julian," the man says with a soft chuckle. "We're all friends and we're all excited to have you all here. Please, please, come inside with me." He gestures back toward the building.

"We'd be delighted," Jiyoung says, dipping her head in respect.

"I'll show you around, give you the tour and introduce you to the boys," Julian remarks, leading them back to the building and up the three-step staircase to a grand glass door. He pulls the handle and holds it, allowing them all to enter.

Soon, they've stepped into a massive lobby-style room and at the far end of the room is a series of three shiny silver elevators. Everything inside is sophisticated, spacial and in a formal color theme of blacks, whites and silvers.

Almost immediately, there is a DING!

Then, from one of them, walks a six-foot tall man with neat-and-slicked-back strawberry blond hair waves. He has on black pants and a tight white dress shirt that accentuates his arm muscles.

Jiyoung involuntarily finds herself gasping as he briskly comes over to them.

Julian greets the man, "Ah! Phoenix Spencer!" They share a handshake together. Then he turns to his guests and gestures to the new-comer, saying, "Jiyoung, Misun and Hydrangea members, please meet the star captain of the Orlando Stars."

Phoenix stops before them and flashes a bright, moviestar-like smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you all." His eyes, a pair of stunning sky blue, shift to where the six young men stand. "Welcome, Hydrangea."

Kino steps forward and grabs Phoenix's hand, eyeing him. "Nice to meet you too, I'm sure we'll make your fans electrified tonight, before the puck is even dropped."

Phoenix locks eyes with him. "I'd expect nothing less from a popular k-pop group like you all."

"Yeah, k-pop and hockey don't usually mix. But in this case, since you guys can handle multiple genres of music within your genre of music, we thought that might benefit us. It could be a unique version of the anthem," Julian states.

"So now, you can say that hockey and k-pop do mix," Misun says.

Shinkwan is still gripping onto her hand.

Phoenix nods his head. "Have they been given the tour yet?" His eyes slide to lock on Jiyoung's.

Jiyoung turns her head away to divert his attention, a red patch creeping into her cheeks.

"I was just about to," Julian says.

Phoenix's eyes snap to his General Manager's. "I can give them all the tour. What do you say? Practice is over, media time is over, so, therefore, I'm free until gametime! I'd be willing to give our lovely guests a tour."

Julian smiles at him. "That would be smart. I do have some GM duties to attend to, so I suppose that would be a good idea." He begins to step away. "I'll be in my office then, should anyone have any questions. Oh, and while you are here, enjoy yourself - go wherever you'd like to."

Jiyoung studies the General Manager closely and nods. "We will, thank you so much."

"And now, I turn the tour over to Phoenix. Have fun." Julian dips his head and then scurries off to a personal fourth elevator that looks like it would be used by executives. Shinier, more silvery and fancier.

Within seconds, Julian the General Manager has vanished into the elevator with a wave, leaving them with the captain of the Orlando Stars, Phoenix Spencer.
