Notes: I've had a Gravitation plot bunny in my head for over a year that's been inspired by a pop group named Sugababes. An idea Bad Luck kept on changing members. For fics of mine that revolve around that plot bunny and to make your self more similar, take a look at my fics: Solo Calling, In My Theatre, and for some hilarious one shots to check out; Sasuke's Pure Anger, S E X X X Y, Italy Loves Pasta and A Youtube Rant With Shinji. Now to the fic itself, it takes place after Solo Calling and a while before In My Theatre. There will be implied Takari, Mimi x Matt and there will be some references to the anime Gravitation as well.
Gold Invitation
Chapter One: Hurtful Letter
Yamato,
You are not going to like what we are going to say. Sakaki, Kosaburō, Shiko and I don't like this either. I am sorry, I really am. I know Teenage Wolves has been your number one priority: it's been ours too. You're reading this carefully and I know the first few sentences of this letter is making you confessed as hell. We know the confusion will lead you to hurt and devastation. We've wanted to say this to your face for a while since our third album reached topped Oricon charts. We just couldn't find the right words to say it. When you asked what was wrong, we said everything was fine. You had a feeling that we were lying and you were right.
We just cannot work with you anymore. We respect what you do and we cannot deny how talented you are, as a song-writer, singer, bass player, with the harmonica and other instruments. You are also a very trustworthy friend, which makes it even harder to say this. Well, you were... until our songs were hitting the top 10 on iTunes and Oricon charts.
You started wanted to mix elements of pop, metal, hip-hop with dance, Gothic and electronic vibes to the song. While it's proven to be a commercial success, that's not what we're about. You've left all of our ideas behind. You know very well that I despise pop, Kosaburō can't stand hip-hop and Shiko hates anything mainstream and Gothic.
We know you are happy where you are at the moment but if we continue Teenage Wolves with you, we know it will end in a bitter split. You are getting all the glory and money, and we agree it should all be spread equally among the members. We feel we're not Teenage Wolves anymore: just Yamato Ishida and some guys at the back.
When you do talk to us in a social event, all you ever talk about is Mimi and your digidestined clan. Since recording our first studio album, you always rehearsed on your own. When you did rehearsed with us, you refused to acknowledge us. You never talk about us when you're hanging about with them. If you feel that close to them, why don't you start a band with them? You rarely give credit for us anymore. Because of that we feel used and betrayed: you've let all the success and happiness get in your head.
Best wishes,
Akemi
P.S the rest of the boys have added their own notes.
Sakaki - You wanted a new direction: you got it! I know you'll be successful wherever you go.
Shiko - Dude, you changed. It's a shame you got so selfish. Good riddance!
Kosaburō - Sorry Matt. We'll always respect you as a musician but your change of style no longer suits what the rest of us want. We wish you the best of luck as we hope you give your blessings to us, as I will take over as the vocalist and Teenage Wolves will always be the four of us. We could never replace you.
