-CHAPTER 1-
"I still think this is a shitty idea," Kyo complained as the five oh-so-well acquainted men walked up to the door of the huge office building.
"We know, Kyo, but we should at least look into it. It's nice to have a change of pace every once in a while, ne?" Kaoru asked, somewhat irritated.
They had been invited to attend a "Creative Compilation" meeting by some famous movie director that only Toshiya had heard of. They had been informed that various other artists would be attending, though none of them knew exactly who would be there, or what exactly this was even about.
"I hope Gackuto-Kun is there!" Totchi happily squealed, "He's so handsome! Don't you think so?" He turned to Die.
Die snorted. "In a plastic sort of way!" he said, laughing at his own joke. Totchi pouted.
"I think he's handsome…" Totchi trailed off.
The five continued walking until they were suddenly halted in the middle of a seemingly empty lobby by their leader. The chains on his pants jingled as he quickly swung around and eyed all of them menacingly.
"All right guys, please try to be as polite as possible," he commanded, shooting a glance down towards Kyo who continued to stare angrily at his shoes. "I don't want any of you to embarrass us. Just listen to what they have to say, and no, absolutely NO jokes about ANYBODY in there, okay Daisuke?"
Die glared at Kaoru unappreciatively. "Fine," he sputtered in a half-hearted tone, "and I told you not to call me that."
Shinya shifted a bit, making his shy presence known.
"Yes, Shinya?" Kaoru asked, immediately aware that the man had something he wanted to say, "Go ahead."
"Yeah, speak up Shin-Chan!" Die chortled, giving Shinya a slightly too friendly pat on the back as Shinya was jolted forward uncomfortably.
"I just… yes. Let's be polite," he stated, not averting his gaze from his gloved hands which were continuously playing with each other in front of him. Kaoru eyed him inquisitively but asked him nothing further. He could tell that Shinya still had something he wanted to say, but due to his shy personality Kaoru knew it would be best to just leave him alone. He would tell them all eventually.
Toshiya continued squealing, Kyo continued scowling, Shinya continued sulking, Die continued teasing, and Kaoru continued shushing until they finally reached the room they had been pursuing. Kaoru stopped them again before opening the door.
"Geez Kao-San, we get it, be nice and stuff," Die moaned in an annoyed tone.
"Yeah Kaoru, just let us in and we'll get this over with," stated Kyo, leaning his head back in an unusually cool manner.
"I BET GACKUTO IS IN THERE RIGHT NOW!" Totchi wailed, soon interrupted by a jab in the ribs by his red-headed band-mate. "Ow! Die-Kun! Why'd you do that!" he whined.
"Because your giddiness was nauseating," he groaned and ran a hand through his shaggy red hair.
Kaoru sighed and internally pleaded for his band mates to behave as he finally submitted and opened the door with one last, "be good!"

"Holy crap I'm gonna be LAAAAAATE!"
An exceedingly neon green convertible screeched to a halt in front of the same office building as an exceedingly skinny man tumbled out of it while wailing this last phrase. He skillfully whipped off his sunglasses, readjusted his furry jacket, and redid his hair within the ten fast-paced steps up to the door. He stopped to gather himself before letting himself in the building.
"I'm HEEEEERE-!" he called as he burst in, but was cut just short of his exclamation when he noticed that he was standing completely alone in the lobby. "Oh," the singer declared. He pulled a wrinkled paper out of his pocket and squinted at it.
"Room 134!" He happily yelled for no apparent reason. It would have been equally effective for him to say this quietly, however he was remarkably peppy and showed it by skipping rather than walking down what he thought was the correct hallway.
"Kyaaa!" was the collective exclamation as the afore-mentioned singer and newly found guitarist ran smack into each other.
"Itai! My head!" wailed the guitarist before looking up at the man he'd just run into. "Oh woooooow! I know who you are!" he piped, latching onto the singer's waist. "Miyavi! I love your music!"
Miyavi beamed. "Aw! Arigato! You look awfully familiar, too… but…" Miyavi trailed off looking somewhat ashamed.
"S'okay! I'm Masa! From GacktJob! I was just leaving from the bathroom to head back to the room place when I ran into you… I'm so sorry by the way!"
"Aw, I know who you are! I'm sorry too! I should have looked where I was skipping… say, you wouldn't happen to be going to room 134 now would you?" Miyavi asked, twiddling his lip ring.
"Yep! It's this way!" Masa said, happily leading down the opposite way of the hallway Miyavi had previously been walking up.
"Oh," Miyavi stated again, following the guitarist with a sheepish grin, "I knew that!"
