Chapter one.

"What?... what do you mean your quitting the group?" Yuu stated talking with someone on the phone. Upon hearing this, Natsume placed his electric guitar on the wooden table and snatched the phone away from Yuu.

"What's the meaning of this Reo?" Natsume asked furiously as his other fist was clenched.

"it's this simple Hyuuga" Reo stated saying Natsume's surname disgustedly "the band sucks so much and i'm so sick and tired of it... and i really don't like any of you and that goes specially to you"

"So this was your way of saying thank you after what the band have done for you?" Natsume stated coldy

"Listen hear Hyuuga... do you honestly think i give a damn about what the group had done for me?" Reo asked "certainly not, well on second thoughts maybe... I used you guys so thanks for being my victims"

"Go to hell Mouri!" Natsume stated furiosly

"whatever" Reo stated from the other line. Natsume harshly pressed the end button. Then he glanced at Yuu who was now slightly on panic mode "Call the others" was Natsume's simple command. Yuu nodded and grabbed his phone which Natsume left on the table.

GAME OVER

PLAYER 1: WIN

PLAYER 2: LOSE

REPLAY: YES? NO?

"Oh yeah i won again" Koko stated triumphantly and even flashed a victory sign pose. Kitsuname just shrugged. so Koko won again for the eight straight time. He was certainly not on good luck that day just then his phone rang. He checked the callers name and found out that it was Yuu

"What's up?" Kitsuname stated answering his phone.

"The bands going on an emergency meeting right now" Yuu stated from the other line

"why?" Kitsuname asked

"we're currently in trouble and please hurry" Yuu stated "we'll explain everything later"

"we'll be there" Kitsuname stated ending the phone call.

"what's with that?" Koko asked. Kitsuname told him what Yuu stated on the phone.

"Sorry about what happened to you're brother" Youichi stated sitting besides Aoi. The raven haired looked at his boyfriend with worry "What do you mean?"

"You don't know?" Youichi asked

Aoi shook her head. "So what happened. Is he fine?"

"I think so" Youichi stated "but not much... Reo Mouri just moved out of their band"

"What?"

"That's what I've heard" Youichi stated "and guess what?"

Aoi who was still a bit shocked snapped out and asked "what?"

"You're brother might not yet know about this but..."

"but?"

"the reason why Reo quit was to join Dark Conviction's greatest rival... Death Bed"

Aoi's eyes widened. Dark Conviction which was her brother's band and Death Bed was the two most popular Boy band at Alice Gakuen and the two most rival groups. Both are good ranking first and second, with Dark Conviction being first. Though some say's that the members of Death Bed are as good as them which actually might be true since like Dark Conviction's members all members of Death bed can play an instrument and all of them can sing.

Still Dark Conviction has always been better.

From the way they do their hair up to how they manage to make a simple jean and a white shirt be a major fashion sense.

From how much they can make a girl fall for them with just a simple nod or a small smile.

From how much they can make everyone fall in love with their songs.

But now... a change was happening. Reo Mouri had just joined Death Bed.

"Aoi are you alright?" Youichi asked. Aoi nodded "What would happen to them now?" She asked looking at Youichi.

"Don't worry they'll be fine" Youichi assured him "You should be the one who should know your brother more"

Aoi finally smiled and nodded "yeah you're right... Aniki was never the one to give up. Specially if it was his dream"

"Natsume!" Ruka burst out opening the door of their practice room"have you heard it?"

Natsume glanced indifferently at him "if you're telling me about Reo spare your mouth and save the talk... i already know"

"Damn him" Ruka cursed angrily kicking the air

"What are we going to do now?" Yuu asked slightly nervous in the inside. He had never heard Ruka curse before and Natsume was just as scary.

Just then the door opened revealing Koko and Kitsuname

"Hey what's with the bad mood?" Koko asked "that would send the good aura away" he teased.

No one entertained him. Koko looked at Kitsuname "What did i do?"

Kitsuname just shrugged "Hey where's Reo?"

Ruka rolled his eyes out of anger while Natsume kicked a monoblock chair making it fall down in the process. Yuu was the one who answered Kistuname's question "he quit"

Koko and Kitsuname stared at him "What do you mean he quit?"

Yuu then told them what happened. Koko an Kitsuname where both shocked after hearing iT.

"But what about the battle of the bands?" Kitsuname asked "it would be hard to go on without a drummer"

"We'll be having auditions" Natsume stated with finality. The others nodded with approval

"That's right... let's show that son of b*tch..." Koko stated.

"I think though that we'll be having a hard time looking for someone who can replace Mouri" Ruka stated voicing out his thoughts "we all know that he's one of the best drummer in this school and to ad the fact that he sings so well" he added with worry

"be positive Ruka" Kitsuname stated but even him was not sure about what he said.

Natsume cursed.

Yuu sighed as he began thinking for possible solutions.

Koko nervously laughed as he stared at the ceiling "life isn't always that bittersweet... sometimes, it really sucks so much that you can't even taste the sweet part anymore"
