| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is not a manner of Wealth, but of duty. My Frau. If you insist on repaying me..hmm give me a front row seat to your show today, that sounds like a even trade, Ja?" Eric knew it wasn't, performers like this tended to have seats reserved for a few companions or the like at no cost. "Besides the company of one as famous as you must be worth something, No?" Nodding a bit he looks at the stands. "Tell me what you want and it will be done. Ach, reminds me. Do you go to Das School in the North, Ja? Most wealthy seem to, I will be going there as well, you could show me around there, no?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NPC~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Laughing a bit he rubs his head "Sorry Mister, well James-san! I'm Yoshi!" With that he leads them off towards the stadium grounds after a few momments they reach the back, where a irritated old man is, apperantly he's not just some old man, but the director of this part of the event. *Sigh* "...damn Shodo, now I have all this work and extra performers..its not the money they are after in full...talent scout vultures will be here as...*With a irritated look he notices the man...no back stage pass...shaking his head he sighs once more. "Oh Hello there..Yoshi..please help move the stage lightings would you?" As the boy leaves he chuckles, offering a hand in place of a bow. "I am sorry for my Grandson, he Means Well, I am Yahismata Iyazu, director of the Performing Arts of the city, teacher at the local universities, and many other useless titles." With a laugh his previously furrowed lines smooth out. "So how can I help you...Mister?" |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Following though more like being drug along, Aouli accompanied Alice into the festival. They stopped at a game where she asked him to win something for her. "Sure" he replied raising his eyebrow. Was quite the weird and out of the blue request to him. After hitting everything with each shot the guy in charge of the game asked him what he wanted. Pointing toward Alice he said "Whatever she wants". Out of the corner of his eye though across the way he saw a stall selling Takoyaki. Breathing in the air and smelling them this close he said. "I'm going to get some Takoyaki, want some?" looking toward Alice and pointed toward the stall. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Returning the offered hand with a firm handshake James replies "James Smith" "I was actually looking to help you." "Your grandson found me lazing on the benches and asked me to come help." Looking around at the equipment he then said "Seems you need a few things moved around due to changes in schedule." "I'm not looking for money or anything, just something to do during the festivities." with a smile. |

| Sakura "Haha, so there still exist gentlemen in this world" she smiles and pulls out a front row seat to the singing show, she had two in her pocket for her parents, but she knew they where half way across the world. Her mother already told her she was going to be busy with work. So she might as well give him her ticket."hmm, when you hear my performance, you tell me, how much I am worth. Hmmm I want some pork buns" she smiles and looked at all the food "yea that's my school, y you ask?, do you also go there?" Alice Alice was amazed that he shot down every can and thought he had some impressive skills. She points to a brown teddy bear "I want that one" she knew Aouli wasn't probably expecting that from her but she was going to have fun or atleast try to. The guy handed her the teddy bear and wished her and Aouli a nice date. She blushed a bit hearing him say that and turned to Aouli almost drolling "I love takoyaki, I'll wait her while you get us some |
 |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~ "Ja I will be attending it, hence why I asked." With that he buys her a pork pun and a Oolong Tea. "Very well I'll keep an eye out for you of course, and then stick around to do as you request My frau, maybe afterwards we can watch the fights as well." Feeling a cool breeze he takes a seat at a nearby bench. "Once you are done we can look into that with the police booth." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NPC!~~~~~~~~~~ "Ahh strong hands, nimble fingers, you wouldn't happen to be a musician would you? If so then I can trust this task to you." Releasing the grip he nods thoughtfully. "Yes, I am sorry my Grandson Consripted you, And don't worry, I'm sure my grandson told you about the staff pass, its pretty standard fair, for all helpers." Motioning for him to follow he points at a Large Piano, which seems to have Germanic Script, and a sealed glass encased Harmonica that seems to be gold and ivory with US Government seal stamped on it. "These both are gifts, the Piano was a Gift from Wilhelm the 2nd of Germany, and the Harmonica from Theodore Roosevelt, as gifts to honor the Japanese-victory of the Russo-Japanese War. We also had a orchistra to take part, but oh well..what a disappointment to see these national treassures will not be put to use." (Btw what song did you have in mind for that harmonica and the piano?) |
RedArmyShogunMay 14, 2014 2:37 PM
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Seeing Alice choose the teddy bear made a small smirk cross Aouli's face. He had thought deep down she was still a kid at heart. Not really knowing how to respond to the mans comment he chose to ignore it. After hearing they had the same love for takoyaki he went over and bought four of them. Carrying two in each hand he handed her one and began eating the other one in the same hand. "Where to next?" he asked with a smile. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Yes, mainly play blues and soul though". "Haha it's alright, I wasn't much better off by myself at the time." "Yes, I wasn't sure if it was standard so didn't bring it up" He said with light quick smile. "You have to be kiding..." James said as a light uncontrollable smile crept on his face. He went over and inspected the piano side to side, playing some keys to get a feel for the sound. "My friend would love to see this beauty." He said with a light laugh, as he proceeded to the harmonica case. Opening it he looked at the seal and the key of the harmonica. "I'm sorry but I'll have to conscript these if you don't mind." "As you said it would be a utter travesty for them not to be played." he said as his smile and excitement widened. (Well a blues song, Blue Fog. Though warning the audio is old so it's pitch is high. Unless you can find another song better :) ) |

| "Really? Fallin' down some stairs? That's what you're going with?" Rin questioned with a deadpanned expression. "At least come up with somethin' better than that. Tha' first two of those 'possibilities' are just plain retarded." She commented with a minor scowl. She clicked her tongue as she was reminded about registering with the judges first. "Yeah, yeah. I'll get ta' that after I finish eatin'." Rin then formed a taunting smirk and made a shooing motion with her hand. "Now run along. I don't wanna' keep ya' from havin' fun on yer little date... Careful not ta' fall down some stairs though." "So you saw through it right from the beginning then..." Kazuko murmured to herself in annoyance. This however made her more nervous than anything else, especially when she removed her contact and "changed" for but a moment. She hadn't really thought about it, however "actors" like her and Mia were more intimidating than even people who were blunt with their cruelty. The main reason being that you would not know what the person truly was like. To Kazuko, at least knowing what the person is like allows her to adjust her "strategies" accordingly, however with someone like Mia, that wouldn't work. There was also the chance that she be completely over thinking things as she tended to do. Kazuko acted quickly in going to try the new clothing on, almost as if Mia's words were an order from a superior. A few minutes later, she exited the booth with an only slightly flustered face, wearing the brown hip-hugging jeans, cross bra and pink midriff shirt that Mia had so generously picked out for her. Her collection of loose hoodies definitely felt more comfortable than this. Though the clothing was not exactly uncomfortable, just foreign to her. She immediately continued speaking from before she went to change. "I-I'm not interviewing you. Simply that no one has seen through my disguise before and I wished to know if there was some give away in my act. Also if you realize that it was an act... You should know I dressed that way on purpose! I don't want to emphasize my breasts! And I don't want to attract people!" She retorted in a somewhat hushed tone. She didn't want everyone in the store to hear their conversation. |
 |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Takashi and Co~~~~~~~~~~~ Takashi laughs at that and shakes his head, at that "Well while we both are avoiding the stairs today, lets also avoid sacks of oranges." He wasn't sure if she would get the reference or not. Sighing at the date mention he shakes his head. "Easy for you to say..I'm paying for everything, see you at the fights though. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Oni-Yuki~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Laughing she points at a mirror forcing the girl to turn. "Maybe lose the Bra, but you look a hell of alot cuter this way. In fact I think the boy at the counter did a double take on you." Going to the girls questions she revists them one by one. "But yeah I think we can ditch the bra, At times I don't wear one at all." With a smirk on her face she admires the look a bit. "I know thats why you wear them, it screams, leave me alone! So obviously it hurts." Thinking on that she smiles a little. "Simple, you repeat yourself, not with words, but actions." Mimmicing the girls voice she places a hand on her own head and scratches. "Oh I'm sorry teh heh, oh I'm just sleepy." Smiling a bit she sits down on the stores shoe fitting bench and crosses her legs in a primpy fashion. "Its an okay mask, I'll admit, but in your case its obvious, well to me, maybe some psyhopaths, they seem to be able to notice things like that." Sighing a bit she doesn't like the color on the pants but it does work." Hmm...maybe a nice loop belt and bracelets. As to why I'm doing this, you remind me of a girl that lost everything three times over. And never did fully recover, but thanks to a ..hmm teacher, and a co-worker she was able to stabelize. So maybe I just have a soft spot for you...you do have the same look in your eyes." Grinning a bit she seems to be back into her former persona from the eye contact removal. "Course if you don't like my attention and trying to be your friend, I can leave..would be a pitty, I have a front row seat ticket, right here too." Now lets see how she acts she things to herself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~NPC~~~~~~~~~~~~ The old man smiles, though he didn't know the young man, he felt he could trust him, besides the Harmonica did have a GPS tracker. "Hmm, well understand you won't be able to take part in the winnings, but if you can find that friend of yours and some others to fill in the score, I will chance it. After all if you do baddly, I can open a Salad stand to earn some money." Bowing this time rather than a handshake the old man heads of shouting "NO! NO! Damnit the lights go there not here! Yes! There! Oh God, What I would do to have the Paris Orchistra's arrangement team on hand!" |

| "Huh...? Oranges?" Rin Chi murmured in confusion to herself. "Tha' fuck is he talkin' about?" She further questioned to herself, sipping her drink as she tried to think of what he could have meant, however to no avail. "Yeah, later." She said her goodbye to him, still trying to think of what he meant. "Ah fuck it." She growled in annoyance as she began to eat. "D-Ditch it?!" Kazuko questioned in a quiet tone and crossing her arms over her chest, obviously not too fond of the idea. She as well narrowed her eyes when Mia did an imitation of her act. "If you know why I do it then... Wait, what psychopaths...?" She questioned worriedly. She silently listened to Mia's reasons for trying to "help" her as she put it before sighing. "I'm not doing this because I lost anything. Rather I would've preferred if I 'lost everything'." She told her. Honestly if something happened to the rest of her so called "family" she wouldn't care in the least. Kazuko was brought out of her mental complaints when Mia decided to tease her yet again. She let out yet another sigh at that. "If you want to try to be my friend... Fine. But I'm not going to 'stabilize' like you think I am. Easy to break something, however very hard to fix it." Kazuko warned her calmly. "But why do you randomly have a first row ticket? Wouldn't they be bought out by your fans?" |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~Oni-Yuki~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Laughing she puts a palm up to her head. "I mean wear a normal one. Your hips are better looking anyways." Another laugh. "Well what makes you think I know them? Though there is this one Girl named Aiko, put me through a table once...one eyed bitch.." Shuddering at that she regains her composure and crosses her arms. "...hmm..odd..as to the rest, fair enough, I won't try to. As to the ticket.."A devious smile this time." All the performers normally get two to invite family or guests, last time I looked we arn't related." Sticking a tongue out at the girl she motions with her right hand as if to say shoo. "If you don't like what I picked out find something else...though if you don't mind me asking, what makes you say it would be better to lose everything?" |
| When William stopped walking, he was already far from the Festival, in a silent location. He looked back and retraced his steps by looking at the Festival in the distance. Looking at the clock, he saw that it was still quite early, he had a lot of time to do what he wanted to. As he sat on a bench, William took out his guitar and started to play a little, eventually forming a small rythym. However, as he played, lyrics didn't come out. He just stood there, forming a rhythym by tapping his foot on the ground and playing the guitar. It didn't took too long for him to start singing. The old times, when he was a solo player, came up at his mind as he played Amazing. "I feel sweet, do you feel sweet? It's amazing..." He started to play one of his old songs. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yaya~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "We do, don't we?" Yaya remarked as she walked, arm in arm, with Yamada. Today was proving out to be an excellent day. They were having lots of fun, mostly Yaya, who leaded in teasingly as they played around. As they walked, however, someone was watching them the entire time. Marinu, a young man overlooked both of them with a calm expression on his face. Taking notes, he decides that it is the best to go and talk with Yaya, his old friend from before the invasion. As they talk, someone stands in the way of both Yaya and Yamada. Looking directly at Yaya and then glancing at Yamada, the young man speaks. "Well... I guess you did found someone worth your attention, Ya-sama." The man said, to which Yaya made a large grin, smiling largely. "M... Marinu!? H-How? I thought you were--" "Dead?" The young man, apparently named Marinu, cut her before she could finish. Though his expressions were cold, a small smile apparently surfaced on his face. "No, I was on guard duty that day. Nero found me and dragged me with him so that I could become his ally later on. However, I don't think I'm going to follow him for too long. Nero's ideals are too twisted to be truth." Marinu said as he looked towards Yamada. Yaya looked towards him as well. "Yamada, meet Marinu. He was part of my Infiltration Team when I worked for Mom, and the guy you need to speak of if you need some kind of equipment. He's the person who armed off most of the Nasashiina." Yaya explained, with a smile on her face. She was happy to see Marinu, even if he was working for Nero. Strangely, though, Marinu had a rather feminine appearence. "Now, let us eat somewhere, shall we? I don't mean a threat to you guys... Even if I wanted to be." He said as he looked towards Yamada and giggled slightly, looking away from both of them. "Yaya was always attracted for older men, guess you didn't changed, huh?" He joked, actually being able to make Yaya blush a little as she responded. "S-Shut up, you idiot." |

| Kazuko let out a sigh of relief at that, though the comment about her hips caused her to look down and examine her own for a moment. "Do you... by chance refer to the president of the student council?" She inquired with some disbelief. Aiko had seemed like one who would do that if able and towards someone that angered her... but she never actually thought that she would do it. At the tease, Kazuko's eye twitched again. The ticket hadn't been the reason she didn't immediately try to dismiss her, but it still annoyed her somewhat, no doubt to Mia's amusement. As she turned to go look at some more clothing she turned her glance back to Mia. "It's something, like that other reason you mentioned earlier, that I'd rather not go into. I'll just say that a vast majority of what I could have lost were things I could not despise more." She answered calmly before walking to a nearby wrack of T-shirts and tank tops and sorting through the apparel. "It's not something I like to reminisce about." |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yamada~~~~~~~~ Yamada at first smiles untill the new comer shows, he knew the man was defacto..orr was he even a man..was there enemy, but he seemed more of a professional soldier who wouldn't hold grudges, but none the less... As he looks for words it seems Yaya was on good terms with the man, however that didn't stop him from reaching towards his coat, shaking his head he removes his hand. "Hmm, Seems like this is World War One and the football game is about to start..if you ever do want to change sides however.." Shaking his head a little as if to get his mind off such things he sees no harm in eating with him. "Very well. If Yaya has no objections I agree, besides, I'm wondering if you know anything about what happend that Yaya does not. Though I'm also fine leaving all of that behind for today." He couldn't bring himself to act too friendly towards the man, afterall his boss did cause him a lot of trouble. But at the same time, he himself did not...it was a odd event. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Oni-Yuki~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Ah...you know her too ehh?..Lets just say I might have had it coming, that woman is touchy with her men." Judging by how she acts at the mention of her makes it seem it was one hell of a fight. "hmm..I see, I won't push it anymore then...I can understand that very well." For a brief instant she seems sad, but quickly brushes it aside. "Ah the concert is soon. And don't worry I am really interested in being your friend." |
RedArmyShogunMay 14, 2014 7:28 PM
| "So... you two were fighting each other over a boy?" Kazuko inquired with another slightly deadpanned look. She didn't see the point in getting angry over such things, or rather she didn't see the point of such things at all. She nodded at her understanding and murmured a quiet "Thanks." before she grabbed some clothes off several wracks and left to change. She came out with similar jeans, however with a light blue color and a black tank top. She at least tried to keep the clothing similar to what Mia had first chosen out. "Ah, it is? I suppose we should get going then." She mused, examining the clothes she had tried on in a mirror. The clothing still felt a bit strange to her, particularly the lack of a loose hoodie, but it wasn't exactly bad. She paused for a moment at her words, surprised but it didn't show. She again gave only a slight nod and murmured a calm and almost inaudible "Thank you." She was as well curious about Mia due to the fact she too was an "actor". She would never admit it, but she as well had some hope that she would be able to trust her, being a fellow "actor". |
|
| Sakura "well that makes sense" she shows him a bright smile, she was quite glad he attended the same school she was in. "frau? haha sounds like a plan to me, but arent you going to get something for yourself?" she looks at her pork bun Alice she takes it and starts to eat it "yummy~, this is as good as always" she looked around "hey, dont they normally have fireworks in the festival?, maybe we can watch them when they are on" she looks a bit at the teddy bear "thanks for the bear btw" |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~Mia/Oni-Yuki~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Ehh something like that, more like we work together and I decided to toy with her." Grinning a bit she shakes her head. "Ha, it nothing really, I'll tell you about it later I guess. Hmm it looks better on you than a coat at least, though next time I'll go as me." Smiling a little she pays for the clothing pointing it out, and giving an autograph. "Heh and before you say anything, just buy me some beer or a meal, besides I need someone to hang out with." With that she goes fully back to her stage persona. "Well, lets go back shall we? If you want I can get you a back stage pass, beats sitting where you were at least." With a polite laugh she admires the girls new look again. "Hmm ir really is much better." hmm..what would you do if you learned the full extent of how I act.. "Well lets go, I'm hungry." (doing a little skip here we can still RP this is just for what Yz wanted to do.) "Not bothering much to listen to what she was sure would be another round of protest from the girl, she brings her to the back, and to the performers dressing room. A assorted collection of foods are on hand, grabbing what amounts to a beto set she smiirks a little and starts to eat. "You know Kazu-chan, this has been a interesting evening, almost as much as fighting that damn president of yours over her boy...although I must say, thank you for not bashing my head into a stool, then throwing me through a table" Laughing at that softly she has to admit, it was a fun little trip. Maybe this girl could be her friend...in some time minus Takashi, she hadn't had one of those. ~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~ "Ach, Frau is Lady, more or less, in my house our father demanded we spoke German first and foremost, even on out estate we lived as germans, though we are Japanese..or at least half." Watching her stare at the meat bun he smiles. "I am find, I ate with my friend. So please go ahead. Meanwhile I'll go ask the policeman about where we need to go." Leaving her to eat he soon returns. "I found where you needed to go, My F..no Lady. It seems the compititon will be starting soon, allow me to see you the rest of the way please." Holding his hand out for he softly takes her right fingers, her skin was very smooth to the touch he noted. (btw what does she look like, the apperance part of your bio is now missing oddly, need for him to make his remarks on :p) |

| "well know that i know what it means, i dont mined if you call me Frau, I also think its very nice and sweet for your parents to keep there culture despite where they live" she eats the pork bun and drinks the tea when he leave "ah that sounds nice, now we know where we going?" she takes his hand when he offers it and gets up "what country are you most found of?"

| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Mmhhmmm" Aouli mumbles in agreement and nods. "They'll probably hold off on those till the end." "Though if we're still here when they set them off I'll watch them with you." "Well you probably could have gotten it yourself, though glad you enjoy it" He said with a smile. "Now it'll be some time before the festivals over, have anywhere else you want to check out?" Aouli says, looking around at the stalls. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remembering the lost girl is in the singing festival James decides to wait and help instead of go looking for Eric. Worst case scenario he won't find him till it's time to play and he'll be in the crowd. With that he goes about helping others with setting up the stage. |
|
| "That's... fair I suppose." Kazuko mused as she followed her. She paused when she commented on her clothing. Rather than give a response she merely looks down and examines the clothing once more. "It's not so bad I guess..." She mused to herself, referring to actually wearing the clothing rather than how she thought it looked. Kazuko didn't have much of a chance to argue nor resist being brought to the dressing room, she glances around and examines interior of it. "Yes... interesting would fit very well." She agreed before bringing back her focus to her. "You don't have to worry about something like that. I am incapable of such a thing... Like I said, my arm and aim are not that good. I also excuse myself from P.E. most of the time, only participating once in a blue moon. If you stood up to that woman for even one second that already proves that you are much stronger than I." Kazuko assured her. "Also... Out of curiosity, exactly how even or one-sided was that little conflict between you and her?" She inquired, actually curious. She more wanted to know how much care she should take to not aggravate Aiko. She had never wanted to before and was now damn near terrified of the thought. |
|
| ~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~ (Ahh so Sena) "Ah, but maybe your Normal name would be fitting Miss Sakura. As to that...I'm not sure, I've been to Germany, many of the Germans are not like this anymore, my father when I questioned him said, it was as they had lost their Prussian Spirit. And I never had much chance to learn about Japan like this inspite of living here, so now I am trying to learn about Japan." With a surprisingly soft smile for such a stern face he laughs a little. "Maybe at the end of the day I do not belong to any country, even I notice my manner of being is odd. But at least I can play the Piano. And enjoy the Company of a lovely Fräulein such as your self." Walking along the route he moves past a clearing with the Stadium in clear view. With a polite laugh that sounds a little arrogant as it to poke a little fun at her he points with his right arm and index finger. "Ja there she is, it seems all we had to do, was look up." (I'll leave it to you to drag him into the stadium, look aorund more, or w/e) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Oni-Yuki/Mia~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Finishing an apple slice she smiles a little as the girl talks, she seemed uncomfortable in new settings...this could be fun.. At the mention of Aiko she stops eating briefly and seems to ponder the thought. Before she can speak a man with a staff pass walks up to her asking for any tickets she hadn't used, he seemed surprised when she only turned in one. Waiting for the man to leave, she looks back towards Kazuko and explains. "They re-collect tickets we don't use to sell at the last minute, but two beside yours are taken by, me and likely another performer, So you won't have to hide in your coat today." Sticking her tongue out, she pulls it back in and thinks back to that fight. "Well believe it or not, I was beating her at first. Then I got cocky, punched her in the face, mistakenly hit her where that patch is, its not for show, she really is missing an eye..anyways the nerves there must connect to her aggression center..I went from fighting an unskiled girl, to fighting a monster, it reminded me of a Viking beserker..but then again...recent events in her life depending on a factor will make her meaner than every before, or much softer." Laughing a bit in that polite idol fashion she starts to put back on her chains one by one with, her main outward theme seemed to have beem the darker hard rock scean that was growing in Japan. "I made these chains special, you'll see a good show today, makes me wonder what the others have planned. I bet your surprised that I fight huh? Kazu-chan." "If you want to hang around me later still, and I mean Me, just remember once the event is over, go to where we first meet, I'm planning to walk around the festival myself. I don't want a answer on that now though." With that her arms and legs have the chains back on, and a final three are connected to her neck on a choker collar. In all there are 7 chains, though they seem to have a black painted puddy like substiance spread along the whole length, with wires at the sources just below her clothes connected to her headset. Short of the Shodo reward, the areana its self were going to pay the bigger names. Of those she counted 5 and herself, plus she did like putting on a good show. (Astros, could likely find Eric when he, I assume goes backstage with Sakura, though short of our duet or what not with the band I did have one soloplanned to show his skill with the Piano, mostly as I found this painist on youtube with some kick ass songs lulz all are vairly short, so I might have him play 3 songs back to back, as he feels bad the piano isn't in use as much as it should be.) |
| Smiling slightly, Marinu seems to look directly at Yamada as he talks. "So I see. You're not exactly trusting me, but that's no problem, my friend. It is nothing but a normal attitude towards someone who is working with the enemy. After a few minutes, they eventually stop somewhere. A restaurant not too far from the Festival. "Marinu, how the hell did you come to even work for Nero? I mean... You're not the type of person to follow someone around." Yaya stated as she sat down. "Well, what can I say? I owed the guy..." Marinu says as he asks for what he wants to eat. Right after that, Yaya and finally Yamada. "Owed him?" Yaya asked with a raised eyebrow. "That's of minor importance right now, Yaya. Your boyfriend wants to know what happened down there, and maybe it would be a good idea to tell him. I'm impressed you yourself didn't tell him all." Marinu said as he looked towards Yaya, taking a glance at Yamada before. "I wasn't really able to see anything. Mom pulled me out of the battle and simply told me to run. She held off the enemy as I ran away and escaped through one of the routes before it was buried." Yaya said as she looked away slightly. "It wasn't your fault. Your Mom did what was best. If she hadn't done that, you would be on the list of dead Nasashiina, and there would be no one capable of stopping Nero." Marinu remarked. He then took his eyes towards Yamada. "I was on guard duty, during the assault, wasn't really able to see anything before they came in rushing towards me. Took two of them down and got shot on the shoulder. Tough bastards, you see. Can't really say anything about weaponry, but these guys were heavily armored. Shields, double kevlar, flamethrowers... It was as if they knew they were going in to the devil's den. Before I could even try to run into them and hold them off, they were already reaching the inner sanctum. The Temple was in flames. That's when Nero caught me. He told me we should run and that we had no chance against those guys. The Temple was large... There were about over 400 students, not to mention the mentors, official assassins and the ancients. Count would reach about 630 or 670 people. I'd say almost all students died in the first explosion. Napalm bombs throughout the underground caused an enormous eruption of fire. Killed almost all our defenses instantly. The rest... It was easy for them. I don't know how many were there, but I can say that there were more than a hundred." Marinu said as the man with the wine arrived. Taking a deep breath and sipping on the wine, Marinu continued. "These guys were privately funded, though. Not everyone can arm their blacks ops squads with heavily modded M4's, tactical shields and the hacking tech they used. These guys were either a private army of some kind of Company, or they were Mercs." Marinu said as he looked towards Yamada, with a calm expression on his face. Yaya looked away slightly. She could remember that it was nothing but a massacre. Closing her eyes briefly, she returned her attention to the conversation. |

| ~~~~~~~~~~Yamada~~~~~~~ Yamada things on it a bit not sure what to make of it, after a waitress appears taking there orders he decides to speak. "Flame Throwers...now thats an odd one...really no one uses them anymore, minus well flame thrower RPG rounds...and heavy armor..well details aside, your boss is going after the Wrong Shodo, and me or what I may or may not be into, the Japanese government did value your clan.." Leaving it at that he ponders it some more. "Its a rather strange mix, the Armor sounds like the Eastern Bloc, The weapons, no Russian or Chinese would dare use a M4..the flame throwers though, I've only seen them still in use in the thrid world.." "Napalm Bombs?..those arn't easy to move around or use, you see the smallest effective one is around 200 kilo's..someone put them there in advance..mind you this is setting aside our states...but isn't it a little...to good Nero Escaped and knew where you were? Regardless, I need more to go on, were there patches, did they say anything at all, and stance they seemed to favor? What about numbers, or was it just a swarm?" He seemed to be pondering the issue, but lets his right hand grip Yaya's left to console her a little. "I mean it sounds like an assorted grab bag, and they hit too well for it not to be an inside job. Mind you I'm not sayind that to cause problems, though that would be in my interest those bombs are damn heavy its why we only use them on planes." |

| Alice "mm, lets take turns picking out games to play in the mean time, oh also I want some Sake" she points to a game (one where you have to Pull ropes that lead into a big plastic box some attached to prizes some attached to nothing) "i choose that one as my fist game" Sakura "haha, well i do prefer you call my name, Mr Eric, but lets drop the Miss and Mr, we are friends now, right?" "hmm that is a bit odd, i mean i would expect your grandparents to be all traditional and stuff but not your parents since in german people are not like that. then again they just want to keep there culture close, hehe" "well I guess we can learn more about the Japanese culture together" she smiles and see's one of the games. she squeezes his hand and runs towards the game "lets have some fun before we get going" (it was a shooting game, where you shot to get the price you want. Ok and i love sena :3) |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Very well Sakura...and let us just say, my father is a very strict traditional man." Following in the girls wake he see's the game, and knows it won't be a problem to win for him. Unless it was rigged, such as the guns allignment being off, and if so he could correct. "Ah allow me, do not worry, you decide which of the top prizes you want while I start shooting." Paying the bored man, he grabs the corkgun rifle and sights the targets. In short order he steadies his breath, with one eye open he shoulders the toy gun, and fires, the first round hits but he notices a slight drop. "Ach..so it is." Noticing the gun is tamperd with he smiles, he was now bound by his own code of honor and justice to win. Much the the bored mans surprise the brown haired fellow hits every single target in a row without a single miss, about to mutter something he cathes a hard cold Authoritarian stare from Eric which promptly shuts him up in advance. The man smiles politely starting at the couple. "Ah..your boy friend there is a good shot, please pick one of the first, 2nd, and third place prizes." Wise choice, make us happy to get rid of us. Eric sits down the popgun and looks toward Sakura. "So what else shall we do my Frau?" This game was too easy, but he didn't mind spending time with the girl at least. (aye, and yeah when she's not acting up shes rather nice) |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Not sure where you're going to get sake being under aged here." Aouli said with a raised eyebrow. "Hmm how do you play that game?" "I haven't been to festivals all that much, have to work most of the time they're around." (No clue what game you're talking about o.o) |
|
| Sakura she smiles "well You should be happy you got raised with parents that where there for you, and where strict and traditional with there home country. I grow up with the maids and butlers, My parents where never around to teach me about any culture. they where always on "business trips" and had no time for there daughter. Oh well, I cant really complain anyways. My Maids and butlers treated me well and where always there for me. That and I got almost everything I wanted" :3 "oh i am sorry for blabbing and just talking when we are suppose to be playing a game she looks at him as he gets a perfect score "wooooowww.. your amazing, you can definitely handle your guns, hehe" she said that chuckling as she points to a giant size, pink teddy bear "I want that one, and thanks" :3 Alice "umm... yeah.. I forgot about that and its not like I have any money to bribe people"she stomps her feet a bit "this is so irritating and unfair" she looks at he game, "I think this is a game on luck, where you pull one of the ropes and see if something appears" (dont know, read it on google) |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Is it so boring that you need to drink?" Aouli asks, not thinking of any other reason as to why she would want sake at a time like this. Checking the game over it seems simple enough though he doubt's he'll get anything. "Hmm luck huh, well then I'm bound to get nothing" He says as he pulls on a string. Though instead of materializing a box or a prize the string simply breaks. Leaving Aouli with a mixed face between surprise and confusion. |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~ Looking at her straight faced he wonders what her family must be like. "Oh you Misunderstand Sakura, I do not resent my family. However I can't say it hasn't been troublesome deal with what is my homeland for now regardless." As shes given the Teddy Bear he decides to play a few more games winning her some more prizes. "Hmm..well we likely should make out way to the arena my frau. And no need to thank me for any of the stuff. However, I think I am done playing for now, I do not want to see you spoiled." (Likely head towards the stadium now, if you want to do something there like back stage or the like feel free.) |
| Marinu waved off his hand, meaning he didn't want anything, to the waitress. "Don't know about that, I have no idea how they were placed there, but I'm pretty sure it was Napalm." Marinu said as he took a glance at Yaya and then looked out of the window of the restaurant. "The only person that had access to the underground tunnels were either Dad, the Ancients or Nero. In other words, they were the only ones that could place those things there. Other than them, me and Mom also had access to them." Yaya said, looking at Yamada. Her expression looked pained, but a small smile appeared on her face as she looked at Yamada. A little comfort passed through her mind. "Well, we have the list of suspects. However, those tunnels could be accessed through the sewers, so it's no big deal if someone discovered how to get in." Marinu said, however, Yaya raises a hand. "You're right, the access was also through the sewers, but that entrance was locked. Only a few people had the access code to get through the pressure-lock door." Yaya told him. "It doesn't mean much, those guys were able to hack through our systems as if it was nothing, disrupting comunications and turning down auto-defense mechanisms." Marinu said, and continued, after taking a nother sip at his wine. "They spoke latin. Dead language. We're not trained to understand what they were saying, but I could tell that it was latin." Marinu said as he looked away from them and out on the window. "They were organized too. The main reason why we couldn't do anything against them was the fact that the shielded soldiers came in first, followed by a few comandos and finally the wave of man armed with the flamethrowers. Probably were using them to finish off stragglers and take down our buildings. Strangely, though, they stopped using it after they reached the inner sanctum." Marinu said. Yaya quickly spoke, in a hushed tone. "Of course. If they took down the Inner Sanctum, everyone inside would die. It was projected to be a trap only the Ancients and the Influents knew. However, if they knew that, it just has to be an inside job. We either have a sellout, a traitor, or they studied us for years." Yaya said, seeming more set off after finally understanding they had help from inside. Marinu sipped on the wine once more as he looked directly at Yaya, narrowing his eyes. "Then you already have a set list of suspects..." He says as he gets up, leaving the empty wine cup behind. "Unfortunately, I have to go. You two can stay here. Here, this is to pay off our little meating. I hope to meet you two again... Soon enough." He says as he leaves behind a big ammount of money, enough to pay his share and even add off. Leaving off, he says nothing else, only waving his hand for Yaya and going out. Yaya speaks nothing else. She remains quiet after Marinu goes away. |

| ~~~~~~~~~~~Yamada~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As the man leaves Yamada's mind races with thoughts. "Well hopefully that next meeting won't be at gunpoint...you know Yaya, there are only two possible suspects. One is European or American Special forces, but I highly doubt this. Why use infantry, when a Stealth Bomber can just bomb your village into dust. The Other is the Vatican got teeth. Other than that its a third party and we really haven't learned anything. "The point is, why your people?" Seeing the womans despair...or quiteness he sighs a little rubbing her softly on the back. "We'll butt heads over it tonight, for now lets go back to forgetting things, if its only just for today, the concert starts up soon." With a bit of a smile he tries to cheer her up a little. In his mind it was little doubt Nero was behind it, but he wouldn't say that to her, he was sure she knew. Other than that these Latin speaking Fighters was troublesome..latin was short of by a small view, a dead language. |
| Yaya looked slightly away from Yamada as she prepared to speak what she had on her mind. "I can't simply forget it like that, Yamada. It's like I told you before, I can't rest until everything is solved. Besides, it was clearly an inside job. You see, when Marinu told me I already had a set list of suspects, he meant that I already know who betrayed us. It is true... I do. It is an extremely long story, though, it is better if I tell you once we get back at the tower. For now, let's just... Try and have a little fun." She said, though her eyes still held slight sadness from what she had just discovered. If it was true, and it probably was, her entire world would be shaken from the truth, and so would everyone she knew, including Yamada and Nero. It was possible that even Nero didn't knew about the true story. |

| ~~~~~~~~~~~Yamada~~~~~~~~~ "Hmm...so we may have differing opinions..I will listen." Not wanting to seem that he's brushing her problems off though he looks at her a bit. "For what its worth, I don't know your situation, I won't lie and say I do Ma'am, but I know what it is you want and why..I've seen it on one too many faces far too young..You pegged me to be yours for as long as we live it seems. So I'll do what I can, if I need to call in some favors, or you need me for something, all you need to do is ask." With that he offers her his hand and motions with his head towards the door. "Lets get out of here, see what there is to see." |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yaya~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A smile appears in Yaya's face as Yamada speaks. "Thanks." Is the only thing she says as she gets up, links her arm with his and walks out of the restaurant and back to the Festival. "It seems like the Concerts will start in a few minutes, why don't we go there to see how it's going to be?" Yaya asks as she looks at her watch. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~William~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William prepared himself both mentally and physically for the first concert of the day... His and his band's only to favor his anxiety. Not that he was afraid of performing. He loved performing in front of a large crowd. As he looked out, he saw the extremely large wave of people. Not that many, if you compare it to the shows he used to see in his country and how they were. However, they were large nonetheless, and they were there probably to see William, and some other people as well. Looking towards the judges, he smiles a little. They were there especifically to judge him and his band... What a strange thought to have. Either way, he picks up his guitar. The show was going to start in a few minutes, he went to speak a little with the band and try to relax everyone as to relax himself. |

| Alice "Ehh.. Boring you say, on the contrary, I'm having a pretty good time. I like to drink when I'm happy and having fun.. Well I like to drink most of the time but we aren't getting into that" she chuckled when his string broke "haha now that's funny, hahaha!" She couldn't help but stay still laughing a bit as she pulled the string and a nice fish key chain came out as the price "hey looks like I won something" she see'a the price and smiles as she gets it and puts it in his hand "here, you can have it" she hoped he would like it Sakura "Ah ok, hehe that's good" she smiles as he wins her more prizes "I think you have taken a liking to winning me stuff" she looks at the mountain of prizes and stuffed animals he had got her. "More then what you already have? :p "jk what's so wrong about spoiling me?" She ask him this as they make there way to the stadium |
|
| (I guess we can skip when ever you want Yz, aslo astros I'll leave you a way to find Eric, and Emp I'll be heading for a juncture in ours so that if we start this before you post it won't be an issue. Also will be Auto piloting Aiko and co to the stage) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yamada~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Yes that sounds like a correct thing to do, plus one of my...students is performing, will be interesting what shes up to given some..chemical compounds went missing from one of our armories.." With that he links arms with Yaya and heads for the Stadium, shouldn't be much longer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Ah this is nothing, besides, I have no use for them." Walking with his back straight and head looking forward. "As to spoiling you, simple. Good times come and go. And bad times might be around a corner. A Gentleman should watch out for a lady, my frau, but a man cannot be there always. Plus if I were to be with a woman and do this always, und not when she needed it, or on special events, it would lose its luster? Keep it Random and her on her toes, Ja?" As they near the stadium he insists on walking her, to her dressing room. Standing outside the doorway to it he bows. "It was a nice time. I will watch out for you on the stage as well." ~~~~~~~~~Takashi and Co~~~~~~~~~~~ Sighing a bit as his finances go down both girls at least seem happen, and truth be told it didn't cost him much, and given all the two had been through it was nice to see them smile, which gave rise to other thoughts and feelings he tries to ignore, sometimes sucessfully, sometimes not. "Well I doubt you want to see us pounding away at each other and others Miyami..so, lets head to the stadium, there will be some singers there..So move your ass, both of you." In part they had been walking around a bit, while Aiko seemed fine outwardly he could tell she was deeply troubled. And on the other hand Miyami's health was a concern..given both factors he might have to reconsider how and where he lived.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Mia/Oni-Yuki~~~~~~~~~~~ While she waits for the girls likely questions. The old man running the event shows up to inform her the shows would be starting soon, with that she asks him if the show order had been decided, shaking his head no, she shrugs. Looking back at Kazuko she smiles lightly. "And so the show goes on. No need for us to rush, just if our conversation is cut short, I'll meet you outside the Venue to finish it, Kazu-chan." |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Hmm, I think it would ruin the experience." Aouli says, leaving the topic as it seemed touchy and he wanted her to enjoy herself. Seeing her uncontrolled laughter he raised both eyebrows to signify "Really? Is it that funny?" Looking over the key chain he says "Hmm, thanks" He then reaches for her hand, bringing it up and turning it over. Lowering the broken string into it and closing her hand around it, he then smiles and chuckles lightly saying "Here" "Next game is Kingyo Sukui" Aouli says. Leading Alice over to the stall he orders one poi and is handed a bowl. Having played this game as a kid he remembers the best way to go about it. Filling the bowl halfway and letting it sit on top of the water. Not touching it as it would disturb the fish inside he goes about scooping them up with his poi. After awhile he's lost count and decides to continue till his poi breaks. (Video Footage, Wiki) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Walking backstage through the halls, James had just finished helping someone move instruments. Spotting a stiff individual with a tunic down the hall outside a door he can only guess it's Eric. Standing attention and saluting he yells toward him."Commander Eric Sir!" while smirking and waiting for his reaction. |
AstrosMay 16, 2014 10:30 AM
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ While he is caught up dealing with Sakura he hears those words and heel snaps to attention returning the salute crisply. "jawohl Herr Oberstabsfeldwebel?" (Basically a Sgt Major) Turning to face James he suddenly remembers Yamada's request and his present company which causes him to have a little glare as his jaw tightens. "Ah..James..so you did get lost afterall..and what can I do for you, my kamerad?" |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After seeing Eric snap his heels and turn on a dime. Saluting him back and saying something in German, James couldn't hold the salute any longer. Snorting as he lowered his hand and leaned over, he burst out in a light laugh to himself. Though knowing not to take it to far he timely ended it with a light sigh in satisfaction. Wiping his eye and smiling he walked toward Eric. "Hard to break old habits huh." He said calmly. "Nah, I wanted to rest and enjoy my beers." "Though a boy found me and persuaded me to come here and help out." "Come" He said motioning with his hand. "There is something I want you to see." |

| Sakura "hai hai, if you say so Mr. smooth talker" :P "although I always thought life was like a fairy tail where you will find a guy to always be there for her. mhhm, ill give a performance you wont ever forget." she smiles "oh who's your friend?" Alice "haha ok, i will leave my want for sake behind for now" she chuckles a bit again "yeah, it was hilarious" she smiled and she ended up pulling the broken rope and there was nothing there. she decided to do it for the heck of it. "ill watch you, then Ill see if i can catch some myself" she shrugs a bit "however I highly dought ill be able to catch anything, last time i tried, the poi broke right away" -.- |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~ Miyami Sakaguchi ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As she walked around, a smile appeared on her face. She was happy to be around Takashi. Aiko also proved to be someone better than she seemed to be at first. Takashi was seemingly right about the fact that if she hadn't been jealous about Miyami's presence, they would be good friends. It was only when Takashi said that Miyami pulled up her cellphone and looked at the time. "If I'm correct, it'll begin on 4 o' clock. It's three and fifty, we better get there soon. Not to mention that the place must be packed with people." Miyami stated as she looked towards Takashi and Aiko, but didn't protested in going with them, which she did calmly. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William Parker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The clock hit 4 hours. Silence issued on the room where William was and on the entire stadium as everything went black. A microphone went down the stadium's stage as the announcer walked ahead. "Welcome, everyone. To the annual Singing Competition!" As he said that, everyone in the stadium jumped up and screamed in comemoration at the annoucement of the beginning. "Every year we have a number of participants giving their best to show off their skills and also to achieve their signed contract with A-ShowOff! Today, however, you will only choose one of these six skillful participants. Let's begin!" The man screamed as noise roamed through the stadium. Coming out from the back of the unnecessarely large stage, William and his band looked at the large wave of crowd across the stadium. Light slowly emerged from behind the stage and finally The Untitled started to play. "Just give me a reason to keep my heart beating..." |

| (too bad no more males >> But I have to admit seeing how the love triangle will play out will be neat.) ~~~~~~~~~~Takashi and co~~~~~~~ Nodding at that he grunts a bit as if to say yeah, leading the two girls off they soon are in line for tickets, luckly some front row ones were now up for grabs and Takashi not doing much with his previous pay buys three of them. "Don't say anything either of you...if we are going to see it should be in a good spot or not at all." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hearing James plea he trusts it is something urgent. Bowing lightly to Sakura he apologies. "I am deeply sorry for all this. Ah, his name is james we are...co-workers." Hearing the music play he sighs. "Looks like you'll need to get read Sakura. I will see you again soon I'm sure." Walking off to meet James he stares at him a bit deadpanned. "So what is it? Are we Under Attack?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~Oni-Yuki/Mia~~~~~~~~~~~ Hearing the music kick off she looks at Kazuko with a tired look. "Sorry..I need to see what order I'm appearing in, but go take your seat, I'll meet up with you later, both sides of me always keeps her word at least." Sticking her tongue out she goes to check the list. |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After catching to many fish to count Aouli's Poi finally breaks. Chuckling he grabs the bowl and tips it, letting all the fish go back into the container. "There you go, rejoin your friends while you can." "Your up Alice" He says with a smile. "Try to be quick yet gentle and it'll be easy." Though soon after Alice starts Aouli hears the announcer starting the concert. Not wanting to interrupt her concentration he waits for her to finish. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Snorting at the comment of being under attack James plays it off as a cough and becomes very serious. "Yes, they've formed a huge crowd outside" "We only have a handful of weapons to use against them follow" He says this in an urgent tone. Walking quickly to give off a more sense of urgency he leads Eric to the room with the instruments. Stopping at the door he looks around hesitantly and then opens the door. Motioning "You first" he awaits Erics reaction to the piano around the corner inside the room. |
|
| Sakura she smiles at him "wish me luck" she heads for the stage to wait her turn backstage Alice "heyy, why you put then back, you could have gotten a tank full of fishies" she gets the poi and she be's extra careful with it and gentle but after a few seconds it brakes "ughhh... you see!!, oh do you want to see the concert?" |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~ "I will be watching you." Bidding her goodbye he follows her. Nodding he follows James, seeing a person with there hand hidden in there pocket he screams. "ASSASSIN!" Putting the man in a sleeper hold before he can turn around, the man weakly calls out trying to break Erics grip. "I'm just paparazzi.." Knocked unconscious Eric glances around quickly and hides the mans body behind a pile of boxes, setting a mop bucket over his head with a bit of water to make it look like an accident. Going back to James he has a stern look to his eyes. "There was no attack was there?" |
RedArmyShogunMay 16, 2014 8:07 PM
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "No, you're going to catch a goldfish first." He says with a smile. Ordering another poi for her he gets behind her and ceases her hand with his own. Moving her hand through the light motions to let her get a feel for it. "See, gentle yet quick." After this he starts guiding her into catching the goldfish. 1,2,3,4,5 each time he loosens his grip on her hand a little. Then on the 6th one he lets go and she catches the goldfish on her own. "There you go!" He says with a smile. "Now, lets go check out the concert." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Wait no!" James tries to tell Eric though it's to late. After witnessing Eric strangle the man unconscious James can't hold back the craziness of what he's caused, and abruptly starts laughing almost uncontrollably. Though once he see's Eric try to hide the body and make it look like an accident he looses all control and goes into a laughing fit. So much so when he eventually stops it's to take a deep breath. "No, hahaha.... oh my god...." "I was referring to the crowd of watchers outside as the enemy." "And that is your weapon" He said pointing toward the piano shown to him earlier. |
AstrosMay 16, 2014 8:29 PM

| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Miyami Sakaguchi ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Miyami followed behind Takashi and Aiko. They were extremely lucky to have found seats on the first row. It seemed like the people that reserved the seats had to go out in a hurry or just weren't able to come to the country. As they went inside, their ears would ring with the screams of everyone following along the song that was currently being singed in both Japanese and English. It was clear that whoever was singing it had more ease in singing in English than in Japanese. As his strong voice resonated through the stadium, everyone followed along in the lyrics. Miyami, however, didn't seem to show too much of a grace for following along the song. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William Parker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "...It finally begins!" William's last words echoed through the stadium as everyone silenced themselves and watched the band stop playing. William takes one last look at the crowd, waving his hand in goodbye as the band started to go backstage. "Thanks, everyone!" He says in his own english language as he bows slightly and then speaks it in japanese. As the band leaves, some of them come back and bow too. They then turn their back to the crowd and to the stadium, and head backstage. Meeting with Byakuren in the backstage, he shows her a small smile. "Hey, good luck. Now go there and show them what you've got. " He cheers as he meets her, since she was coming directly towards the stage and he was getting out with his band. |

| Alice she blushed when he got around her "ehh" she hid her face from him by staring down at the fishies. she was impress at how fast he had taught her. "thanks for the help, i guess, i owe u one. you lead the way" |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~Takashi and Co~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Takashi grunts a bit not knowing much on singing, and Aiko seems to have lost interest as well. It wasn't as they didn't like the music, its just neither cared much for music in the first place. Looking at the list he hands it over to Miyami so she can see the order of apperance. ~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~ With a slight fluster to his face he sighs a little."...you laugh too much, Kamerad..." Looking over the Piano he makes remarks. "19th Century..Imperial Germany Seal, wood from the black forest from the looks of it, victory Piano?" With that the oldman shows up and has a conversation with Eric on the Piano and history, after awhile he gives a thumbs up to James and leaves. "Ach so it seems I will be getting to play this. My skills should be enough for the masses..but I will have to watch Miss Sakura from the back than up front, what a shame." With his serious nature he at once opens the piano top and begins to tune it. "Of course should I play the closing for the tali alongside you, your blues are much too slow, I must put this old horse through its paces so that it lives once more, ja?" |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aouli~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Mhm, nah I'm glad you caught one yourself." He responds. Looking around and rubbing the back of his head slowly he tries to remember how to get to the stage. After about two minutes of standing there he finally says. "Guess we follow the sound of music huh, haha." with an embarrassed tone. He then starts walking towards it till it begins to get louder. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~James~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Having calmed down a bit from his fit he calmly responds. "True, though laughter is one of life's greatest pleasures." James then returns the thumbs up from the old man with a nod, watching as he leaves. "Oh?, get acquainted with her did we." he says with a smile. "Hmm we'll have to see, though blues are suppose to be slow." "It shows the raw emotion and pure feeling of the music." "Indeed as I with this harmonica." James said, producing it from his pocket and handing it to Eric to look over. "I need to try to find the Orchestra, I have in mind a good piece with that harmonica and them." He says as he leaves in search of negotiating a performance with them. |
|
| "Haha, you sure are good with directions" she says sarcastically She grabs his hand as they walk so that they don't end up separating when the crowd gets big |
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~Eric~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Hmm.." Looking over the harmonica he doesn't seemed moved one way or the other. "That may be so, the blues suits the American South East, however, that Piano has went too long without some proper Prussian music to cross it, I cleared it with the old man, that I could depending on time play three A class scores back to back in 9 minutes..maybe I'll play a 4th. That will give more than enough time for the tally. Good luck with your search." Snapping his heels a little he thinks over things. "Hmm..she is..rather interesting. It seems I will be going to school with her, actually." As if engrossed in his work with the Piano he doesn't treat the issue with a 2nd thought. (think I'll play him out like a male version of Laura Bodewig in some respects, mostly on any romance front) |
