When the great Celine Dion unexpectedly announces a free Halloween concert on streaming platforms, everyone is in shock. Her fans are confused, others are freaking out. Her PR and marketing teams try to change her mind. Celine refused. She is stubborn. Her explanation to the media? She's rich enough as it is. With all the dark things going on in the world, people deserve a little happiness and she wants to give it to them with a free concert. Social media is ablaze. #IsCelineGoingBonkers, #CelineFreeConcert and #CelineDonWTF are trending. Her fans, as well as her haters, will be in front of their screens on Halloween night. The free concert will be streamed on YouTube, Facebook and Twitch. The Twitch subscribers find this very strange.
Anyway, October 31 2022 has arrived. The concert starts in 1 hour and the chat rooms are full of messages. Fans who are excited, haters who leave hateful messages, people who cry scam. When the concert starts, everyone is even more shocked. It doesn't look like the diva's concert. Yes, Celine is on the screen, singing her greatest hits while wearing different Halloween costumes, but the set behind her, the sound, the lighting quality. It looks more like a show organized by amateurs than a show of THE great Celine Dion. Chat rooms are filling up with even more messages. Some people write that Celine has lost her mind, others say it's a free concert so don't complain, others send death threats.
As Celine began to sing My Heart Will Go On...
♫ Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you ♫
...creatures appeared on the stage. People in the chat rooms recognize them. They are Noises from the anime Senki Zesshou Symphogear! Her haters are crying fake and copyright infringement. When screams are heard around Celine and the diva herself stops singing, her fans start to worry. What if the Noises are real? The creatures leave the stage and blood spurts out. Everyone panics. The chat rooms fill up with warning messages, to alert Celine, but she can't read them.
Suddenly, someone notices that the singer has a strange crystal pendant around her neck. It wasn't there before. Everyone is talking about it in the chats. After all, it's a Relic, which means that Celine has a Symphogear! She can transform and fight the Noises! The monsters return to the stage and surround her, and then Celine begins to sing.

There was a flash of light and Celine is transformed. Her Symphogear armor is silver and black. Small crystal cubes, her weapons, float around her. The singer doesn't even seem surprised. As if she knew this was going to happen. Either that or she really knows how to keep her cool. Celine starts to sing Treat Her Like A Lady's chorus...
♫ Lady, treat her like a lady
You'll make a good girl crazy
If you don’t treat her like a lady ♫
...and her weapons fire lasers that destroy the Noises. In the chat rooms, everyone is even more excited. Celine Dion slaughtering Noises. The Symphogears are real. After all the creatures are dead, Celine de-transforms.
"That was something, wasn't it? Uh. I don't know what happened exactly. My cameramen died. Uh. My apologies, but the concert is officially over."
Celine leaves the stage in a hurry. Other people arrive and cut the broadcast.
Social networks became even more heated in the days that followed. #SymphogearExist, #WTFCelineSymphogear, #CelineKillNoises and #IsCelineOK are trending. A week later, when Celine resurfaces, she denies having organized a free concert, the Noises’ attack, her transformation into Symphogear, but nobody is fooled. When she appears at the press conference, everyone sees the pendant she is wearing. The crystal, the Relic.
Social networks continue to be abuzz. #CelineDionLie, #LIARCELINE, #SymphogearsAreReal, #OthersRelics, #OthersCelebritiesRelics are trending. There must be other Relics. Other celebrities must have them. Other female singers. That's what everyone thinks so Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez and others are harassed relentlessly. They deny having a Relic, but someone found a picture of Britney with a pendant identical to Celine's.
