Day One
Namine sits down next to Zexion looking at him awkwardly as he plays a slow, sad song, in G minor, on his flute. She shakes her head and opens her clarinet case. As she puts her clarinet together the bell rings and Axel, Roxas, Sora, and Hayner shove through the door. They all fall in a pile laughing. Kiari goes over laughing with them. "You're all so clumsy," she laughs innocently, Sora grinning stupidly at her.
Riku appear out of the band closet and looks at them, "Get up," he says unemotionally. "Class is starting soon."
Olette sits down next to Namine and puts together her oboe. Larxene watches from the back of the class. Riku sits down next to Olette and takes out his music. From the band closet loud shout erupt and Roxas, guitar in hand, runs out. Axel chases after him, green eyes glimmering. "Stay away!" Roxas yells. "Stop trying to seduce me in school!"
Axel stops suddenly, the room goes quiet except for Zexion's flute. "So you mean I can play with you outside of school now?" Axel says shocked. "Just not during school…? Okay!"
"No! That's not what I meant," Roxas says, but gives up hope seeing Axel smiling broadly and not paying attention to anything.
Kiari plays a C on the piano and then hums it to tune her violin. Namine joins her in tuning and Olette joins in once she's put the reed on her oboe. Marluxia plays a low bellowing note on his tuba and flower pedals soon cascade around them. "Not again!" Larxene's voice shouts among the flowers.
Olette chuckles at Larxene's anger, but when suddenly the room door bangs open. A ghostly man stands in the door. He wears a suit with a tie that's red with music notes. A huge smile appears on his face and he canters in his grin turning foolish. "Ah!" he sighs. "Good morning everyone! And welcome! I'm Mr.Xemnas and I'm your band teacher."
They all stare at him blankly for a second and then burst out laughing. Namine tries to hide her giggles but can't help it and laughs hard enough to make her stomach hurt.
"Mr.Xemnas?"
"A teacher?"
"Did you see the look on his face when he came in?"
Mr.Xemnas looks at them with an utterly confused look. Then he shrugs and turns to write in the board. The laughing subsides as Mr.Xemnas writes his name and a list of things on the board. The list consists of: Name? Instrument? Experience? Favorite song?
"Okay," He says turning around. "Let's start by telling each other our names, the instrument we play, how long we've played it, and our favorite song. I'll go first! My name is Xemnas. I major in the baritone, which I've played since 5th grade, and I love the song "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic."
Snickers come from the back of the room. "Would you like to go next, sir?" Mr.Xemnas asks Axel.
The snickering stops suddenly. Axel shrugs, "Sure. My name's Axel, I've played drums," he spins his drumsticks, "for three years, and I like whatever Roxas likes. You next Roxie!"
Roxas groans as Axel pokes him with a drumstick. "Stop calling me Roxie! My name's Roxas, Axel," Axel smiles and Roxas continues. "I play the guitar and cello, I like rock music, and I've played for three years."
He glances at Larxene and she smiles and starts her turn. "I'm Larxene, I play percussion, I've played for three years, and I like Olette!"
Olette sighs softly and Namine gives a little laugh. Mr.Xemnas looks a little confused but ignores it and nods to Marluxia. "You next," he says in a monotone voice.
Marluxia looks at him then smiles broadly and says, "I'm Marluxia, I've played tuba for two years, and I love all romance songs."
"Fuu. I play trombone. Five years. I like Trombone Triumphant," Fuu says quietly then nudges Pence hard enough so he nearly drops his French horn.
"Ow! What?" Pence asks. He looks around the room and then says, 'Oh! I'm Pence. I've played French horn for five years and I like most music."
Sora's jumping up and down in his seat because he was missed and doesn't want to interrupt. "Can I go?" he shouts. "You missed me!"
"Just go," Roxas mutters angrily at his twin brother.
"Okay!" Sora says. "I'm Sora. I play the bassoon. I've played for one year and I like Disney songs."
Hayner was next. He sighs realizing it and says lazily "I'm Hayner, I play the trumpet. It's been a year. I like all music with a beat."
Riku started talking almost as soon as Hayner was done saying, "I'm Riku, I've played saxophone for four years, and I don't care much for music."
Mr.Xemnas looked awkwardly at Riku but didn't say anything. In the back Marluxia and Axel had started bickering quietly. Olette made a small noise and scanned the room before saying, "Um… I'm Olette. I've played oboe for three years and I like country music."
Namine gives Olette and small smile and Olette returns it. The bickering in the back of the room has increased because of Larxene adding herself in. Namine ignores the noise and raises her voice above them, "I'm Namine. I've played clarinet since sixth grade and I like classical music."
Zexion finally stops playing his depressing song and says, "I'm Zexion, I've played flute for six years, and I like emotional songs."
"Hi!" Kiari says cheerfully. "I'm Kiari, and for four years I've played the violin. I also play the piano and I like spiritful, happy songs."
"Alright!" Mr.Xemnas says clapping his hands together. "Now, I've selected one piece for us to start on. It's called 'Midsummer Night's Dream.'"
He hands out each part and they look over their parts quietly. Sora and Hayner seem a bit confused. Axel only glanced at his sheet and was now pestering Roxas on his part. Zexion has started playing the small, sad section of the piece. Larxene tries to get Olette's attention while Olette looks up fingerings in a book. Kiari is talking to Mr.Xemnas. Fuu and Riku sit quietly; both seem to be in a daze. Marluxia is trying to talk to Larxene and Pence; only Pence is paying attention. Namine sits watching it all for a minuet before getting up and going to use the bathroom.
When Namine gets back to the room the place is in chaos. "Oh my goodness," she thought. "What happened?"
Then suddenly Roxas crashes into Namine pushing the air out of her lungs as they fall to the ground. Roxas gasps for his own breath while trying to get off of her. Axel comes over and yanks Roxas off Namine. She sits up slowly breathing hard. Roxas breaks away from Axel and helps Namine up saying, "I'm so sorry Namine. I didn't see you. I'm really sorry."
"It's okay," Namine says her breath coming back to her. "Just leave me alone now."
Namine walks back to her seat and everyone settles down, quiet after the show. Mr.Xemnas stands at the podium and waits for everyone to get situated. He opens his mouth to say something and the fire alarm goes off. Everyone looks around. "Okay," Mr.Xemnas says trying to stay calm. "Everyone calmly put down your instruments and leave the building."
No one really pays attentions. Sora is out the doors before his bassoon even hits the ground. Marluxia and Hayner are right behind him. Axel grabs Roxas and drags him out of the room, for once not saying anything. Fuu and Pence sit there for a second before hurrying out, instruments left on chairs. Kiari, Larxene, Olette, and Namine rush out the doors their instruments still in hand; Larxene's instrument being her sticks. Riku and Zexion are the only ones who listen to Mr.Xemnas and calmly/unemotionally put down their instruments and leave. Mr.Xemnas follows all of this out the doors with the first aid kit on this back.
Outside the class was even more chaotic then when they where inside. Axel was trying to shove Roxas away from other so that he can kiss him, but Roxas was resisting forcefully. Hayner, Pence, Riku, and Sora started playing Football. Fuu watched for a while before joining in and tackling them. Marluxia starts talking to Larxene and it turns into an argument instantly. Olette, Kiari, and Namine start a trio playing random songs as loud as possible to be heard over the noise. Zexion, the only one not causing ruckus, starts reading a book that appeared from nowhere.
