"Arigato!~ " Valeria and I cheered as we exited the Japenese coffee shop with our cups of hot chocolate. We headed into the cold dark Tokyo streets, on our way to our hotel.

"Being here is like a dream, this couldn't possibly get any better!" I sang cheerfully as we walked. Let me introduce myself, I'm Alexis! I came to Japan with my cousin, Valeria. Ever since we were ten and thirteen (she is three years older than me), it had been our dream to come to Japan. We love everything about it. The food, the anime, the stores, the people and most importantly… the anime. Now that she had graduated high school and an official adult, we decided not to waste time and go on vacation.

"I really don't want to leave, Alexis! It's been so great! Lets stay another week, please!" She pleaded. I gave her a sad annoyed look. I started school in two weeks and really needed to be home to put all my stuff together and finish homework.

"Val, I have school in two weeks! I'm really sorry, I wish we could stay too. You know I love it here. I just have a lot of responsibilities at home that are waiting for me." I hated the sad but understanding look on her face. She had always been a big sister for me and I hated to disappoint her. "Look, we should stop moping about when we're going to leave and enjoy the last three days we have here! Right?" I flashed a huge smile in her direction and hugged her, careful not to spill any hot chocolate. She giggled. "You're right. The Japanese still haven't seen the full craziness of us two yet. We still have a lot to do." We smiled at each other as we walked into our hotel. We ran up to our hotel room eager to sleep, so we could start our day bright and early the next day.

As Val started to open our room door we noticed five waiters walk out of the room next door with big empty messy trays. "Damn, fat asses much?" Val murmured as we walked into our room. "Hey, still wanna play that Japanese karaoke thing we bought today?" she yawned. "You looked pretty pooped though." Pooped, I was. I glared at the bright red letters on my clock. 11 PM. Karaoke didn't seem like a good idea at the moment. She agreed and we soon tucked ourselves in and were off to a nice kawaii slumber.

*guitar playing*

I woke up, confused to where the music was coming from. I was creeped out and wouldn't be able to go back to sleep until I figured out where it was coming from. It felt so close. I stood up and turned the lights on slightly. The brightness was low enough not to wake Val. I stood silent and just listened. The song sounded extremely familiar. The sound was coming from the other side of the room so I walked over to the wall and pressed my ear against it. It had stopped. I quickly started to believe that I was going crazy but..

There it was again.

I always began to hear singing. The singing was almost unhearble. A soft whisper. I knew this song though. It was so familiar.

Then it hit me. It hit me so hard, the tears started to form in my eyes and I began to shake.

Ready Set Go…

Tokio Hotel…

I listened more intently and realized that the guy singing sounded a lot like Bill Kaulitz, actually. More than a lot, he sounded exactly like him. I ran to the other side of the room and turned on my laptop. There was no struggle in getting into the tokio hotel fanpage, since I had bookmarked it. I had been a loyal fan for the past five years. This entire trip just kept me out of touch with everything. I gasped when I read the display page.

TOKIO HOTEL HITS JAPAN!
