A/N: welcome! I'm new to this fandom, so please take care of me! This is a new fanfic that came to my brother's head recently, which was a few weeks ago when he called me on Sk*pe(we live in different places, yeah). And since my brother is just too busy -cough-lazy-cough- to write the fanfic, he told me to do it. So let's just go to the point!
軽音楽クラブ (Teiko no Keiongaku Kurabu/Keionbu lit. Teiko's Light Music Club)
Presented by Blossoming Daisy (previously known as Shioriri)
Warning(s): typos and overly repeated words. DLDR. Bad grammar and vocabulary.
Rating: T for language
Summary:
Just like the title says, what if Teiko had a light music club? How would the Generation of Miracles meet a bunch of not-so-average girls who sing and play musical instruments? "Singing is a whole lot different thing from basketball." [Multi-chapter, rated T for language. Mind to read and review?]
Disclaimer: I do not own Kuroko no Basuke and its original characters. It belonged to Tadatoshi Fujimaki. I only own the plot and my OCs! :D (P.S: if KnB was mine, I would have made Akashi more badass 8D -slapped-)
Enjoy!
Prologue
"Yo guys!" a cheerful voice from the door of the clubroom greeted. Long ivory hair swayed along with her steps as she made her way inside the room.
"Hey Megu."
"Ossu.[1]"
"Hey!"
"Hola Megu-chan!"
The light music club, the most unnecessary club in Teiko Middle School. At least that's what the principal said. The club only has 5 members; the lead guitarist and vocalist, the bassist, the keyboardist, the drummer, and the second guitarist.
Aiko Hitomi, the lead guitarist and vocalist. She has a knee-length indigo hair. She has central heterochromic eyes, with bright red on the central iris and dark violet on the outer iris, creating a flashy view if you look directly in to her eyes. She has a pale skin, due to the lack of outdoor activities. While she enjoys and is passionate when it comes to singing, she has an emotionless and quiet nature outside.
Shirohashi Megumi, the 'matured-like but actually childish' bassist of the group. According to Aiko, she has a split personality. When she shows a cheerful and happy-go-lucky side of her to the people she hold dear, she can be very hostile to anyone she despises. She has a silky ivory hair that reaches her elbows. Although she has such a beautiful hair, it is surprising that she has a pair of dull black eyes. No shine or whatever, it just looked as if she's bored. She's well known for her personality as well as her talent of playing instruments that involve strings.
Mizuno Natsuko and Mizuno Natsumi, the keyboardist and the drummer. They have a contrasting appearance and personality. When Natsuko isn't that eye-catching who loves to help other people but is kind and gentle, Natsumi is a mesmerizing beauty incarnated from hell. Despite the huge difference, they get along very well.
The last but not least, is the Japanese-Korean second guitarist; Daiyama Rachael. Her name 'Rachael' is a translated form of 'Ra-hael'. She's the most matured figure among the rest and is in care for the gang, causing her to be talkative. She has a shoulder-length orange hair which is usually tied to the side. She's also the oldest among the rest, but is also a first-year due to a problem in her younger life.
And here they are, in the light music club's clubroom. They call themselves 'Rainbow Shadows', due to that their hair colors resemble the secondary colors of a rainbow. But this club isn't an ordinary club. Each of them has powers and abilities, to capture the whole five senses of one.
Hitomi has the ability to capture ones sense of hearing. Her voice is what you define as crystal clear with a hint of powerhouse and strength in it. And this is the main reason why she was the one chosen to be a lead vocalist.
Megumi has the ability to capture ones sense of smelling. She has a soothing scent that tranquillizes your nose. She herself has a strange scent fetish.
Natsumi has the ability to capture the eyes. Silky hair, complex skin, petite figure, and sharp eyes; these lovely and mesmerizing traits will bring you to another world. However, her personality is a whole different story.
Natsuko, despite her average appearance, she has a really soft skin which could send shivers to your body to the point that you would crave for lust over the girl. And never underestimate her, she could be looking innocent, but she has a side of herself being a good seducer.
Rachael's ability is different from the others. Instead of a physical trait, she has the skill; the skill to make you drool for food. Considering her mother-ish personality, she could cook. And her cooking is like a dish sent from heaven. Once you taste her cooking you would be asking for endless portions.
Simply, they hypnotize you, on stage or not.
"Hey, I heard our basketball club is really famous." Megumi started, setting her bass up.
"Oh yeah! They're called 'Generation of Miracles', if my memory serves me right." Natsuko replied as she tapped her chin with her right forefinger.
"Heard they're talented. Heh, I'm curious." Natsumi joined the conversation while playing with her drumsticks.
"Ah! I know one of them! Midorima Shintarou-kun! He's my childhood friend! He liked to go to our family shrine back then. It's been a while since I last saw him. It was in elementary, when we left for Seoul. Our family held a farewell party and he came! I wonder what his face would look like if he notices who I am!" Rachael exclaimed, giggling continuously afterwards.
"Hael, stop that, it's annoying. And you guys, stop babbling, we're going to start practice." Hitomi said.
"Aww Hitomi-chan is taking practice too seriously!" Megumi snarled and elbowed Hitomi playfully.
Hitomi sighed. "Go die."
Natsuko laughed. "Come on you guys! Don't fight! Let's get this practice over with!"
Everyone went to their positions.
"3, 2, 1, go!" Natsumi counted with her drumsticks.
"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Rachael shouted.
"Eh? What is it, Hael-rin?" Natsuko asked, furrowing her eyebrows.
"Megumi, you're going off-note! Practice seriously! Hitomi, you too! You're multi-tasking, singing while playing the guitar, so try balancing! You're hitting high notes here! Understand? Natsumi and Natsuko are fine, but i know you can do better than this. For God's sake, the concert is next month! Blah blah blah..." Rachael ranted continuously.
"She's talking too much." Natsumi sighed.
"Well, Hael-rin is just being herself." Natsuko laughed.
"Okay then, one more time everyone!" Megumi shouted after Rachael finally finished her rant.
And after loads of repeating, they finally finished.
"Ahh, I'm tired! My fingers are in the verge of breaking!" Natsuko whined, collapsing on the comfy couch of their clubroom.
"Natsuko, let's go home. It's pretty late already." Natsumi pushed her to the floor lazily, and Natsuko landed with a loud thud.
"Owwie! Tsumi-rin! That hurts! Let's rest for a while first, ne?" Natsuko asked as she put on her best puppy eyes while still lying on the floor, creating an image of a cute puppy lost in the streets begging for adoption.
"Let her be, Natsumi-chan. The practice is indeed tiring, you know?" Megumi said, defending Natsuko.
"Whatever." Natsumi facepalmed and sighed in defeat. Pushing her to the floor just made it worse and Natsumi just regretted doing it whilst cursing Megumi silently.
"I'm off first, guys. And I made some tea, left it at the table so that if you want some, bingo! Right before your eyes!" Rachael made a gun with her right finger and pretended shooting the cups prepared on the table. "Lastly, you can rest for a while but remember not to stay until it's really really late. So cya guys, see you all tomorrow~ Never forget that our concert is next month~" she hummed and left the room.
Suddenly, silence stormed the room, and everyone's gazes turned towards the teas mentioned. 'When did she make that?' was all everyone thought.
"First, I'm bothered by the fact that she talks too much." Natsuko stated, breaking the silence in the room. "Second, she talks even more when we are practicing. Lastly, by the fact that she can do magic tricks on foods and drinks."
"As always, Hael-rin is just being Hael-rin~" Natsuko sang playfully.
Megumi sniffed. She grinned and clapped her hands, earning attention from the present club members inside the clubroom. "It's Darjeeling! It's Darjeeling, guys!" she exclaimed with sparkling eyes.
"I'm off, goodbye." Hitomi drank her cup and left the room with her guitar hung around her shoulders.
"Ehh? So fast, Hime-rin?" Natsuko asked to nobody in particular considering Hitomi had left the room.
"That's just because she's interested in this Generation of Miracles you guys mentioned before today's practice started." a voice from the corner of the room stated.
Everyone gasped and turned to the source of the familiar-sounding voice.
"Uwaaah! Shizu-rin! Stop that! It's creeping us out! For one second I thought you were a ghost!" Natsuko wailed, still lying on the floor.
"I was here before you guys even came." she replied calmly, moving her gaze back to the novel she's reading.
'How the hell did she read peacefully with us practicing?' another damned question stormed everyone's mind.
"I'm used to loud noises." was her answer to the question.
"Anyways, Shizuka-chan, peeking on other people's minds without permission is rude, you know?" Megumi frowned.
"I didn't, it's just Hitomi's eyes are betraying her."
Kurosawa Shizuka, the sixth member of the group. Literally, she's not an official member of the group. But nevertheless, the girls treated her like one. Unlike them, Shizuka doesn't play instruments. She works behind the scenes, helping Megumi with the lyrics which will be sang out by Hitomi and Hitomi with the vocal arrangements. She has a lack of presence because of her short black and dull hair she has, a trait that everyone in the club excluding Hitomi had a hard time getting used to. She excelled in psychologist studies, being able to read people's expressions and read their minds, which caused her to be able to keep a calm composure and expressionless face anytime. Her life motto is 'Never let your eyes betray you'.
"And Natsuko, get up. Or you're going to catch a cold and go absent. You'll miss practice then. The concert is next month, keep that in mind. I'm going now." she closed her novel, mentally noting the page she left off.
"Ehh? Already?" Natsuko asked, now trying to get up from the floor.
"I have something to do." she simply said and left the room.
Megumi slurped her tea and placed the now empty cup back on the table. She quickly snatched her bag and dashed out of the room.
"The last one to get out of the room washes the cups!" she hummed.
"Ah!" Natsuko snapped. She ran for her bag and out of the room as if her life depends on it. She waved and stucked her tongue out to Natsumi before disappearing throughout the door.
"Fuck." Natsumi grumbled, but went to do the stuff nonetheless.
Hitomi walked in the yards of the school. She liked walking here due to the amazing view the field makes, each season creating different impressions.
The reason she loved hanging around is because she loves sketching scenes and views. She's a professional artist with overflowing talent on the internet. But she doesn't want to reveal who she really is in the real world. She claimed she doesn't want to be known as a mere professional artist, but as Aiko Hitomi.
She kept on walking without wanting to know how she's heading to her estimated place. Because she knows that she has a strong sense of direction. Her feet automatically stopped in front of a building, the gym.
Squeaks and sounds of sport shoes colliding with the floor resonated through the door.
She figured the basketball club is practicing.
She quietly opened the door and stepped inside before closing the door back. She made her way up to the bleachers carefully to not produce a sound.
She looked down to watch the sweaty guys practice, on with her poker face. Her central heterochromatic pupils following everywhere the ball flies. She watched as dunks, lay-ups, three-pointers, and hook shots were made.
A couple of minutes later, the group of guys with rainbow-colored hairs stopped the practice session.
"What business do you have here?" her eyes twitched. She turned to her side, there stood a red-coloured hair man, a few inches shorter than her resulting her to have to look down to see the boy.
He narrowed his eyes. "Only a few people can look at me in the eye. Besides, please get out of here." he said, more like ordered, in a monotone voice.
"Akashi, what's going on?" another man around two inches taller than her approached them. He has a green hair and is using glasses.
They both stayed quiet, with the girl merely staring at him, not showing any hint of fear towards the soon-to-be ferocious captain of the first strings of the basketball club.
In a split second, a scissor came out flying towards her face. Both the green-haired and the man so-called Akashi widened their eyes as the scissor stopped right before it touched her face and fell beside her feet.
"I'm about to leave, and you shouldn't do that, its dangerous." she said simply, not moving her feet yet. She bent her knees to reach for the scissor.
"H-how did..," Midorima stuttered.
"I'm Aiko Hitomi, you should've known who I am." she introduced herself. She held out her hand which contained the red scissors.
The green-haired man pushed his glasses back to place and got back to his calm composure. "So you are the indigo girl in the rumors. Not that I care though. I'm Midorima Shintarou, pleased to meet you. And I'm not doing this for you, it's just rude to not introduce yourself back when people introduce themselves to you. Now you should get out of here as soon as possible before our captain rages." He took the scissors from her hands. Although it's obvious that he's curious about how in the world she stopped the scissors without even doing anything.
"I was about to leave anyway." she headed towards the door, smirking. "Let's go, Shizuka."
"Who are you calling to?" Midorima asked, raising one of his eyebrows and looked around, searching for the person Hitomi meant.
"We should, let's go." Shizuka said as she ran to catch up to her. She stopped and turned to Midorima, "I'm here from the start. And answering the question about Hitomi, those abilities are just natural to her. You shouldn't let your eyes betray you." she said before continued running towards Hitomi.
Midorima stood there, trying to process what just happened. How and when in the world did she get here? And how did she read what's inside my mind?
"A bunch of interesting girls." Akashi commented. "This should be fun." he continued.
"What's fun?" Midorima looked questioningly at Akashi after he partly finished processing his thoughts.
"Nothing." Akashi looked at him, gesturing him to give back his scissors, in which Midorima responded by doing so.
"Seems like we've found a few people worth befriending with, don't you think, Hitomi?" Shizuka looked up at her friend beside her due to the difference of height, Hitomi, as they walked through the yards of the huge school.
"Hnn.." Hitomi responsed simply, eyes glued forward to where they are heading.
Preview for the next chapter
"Rachael-chan~!"
"Uwaaa! Shintarou!"
"Move aside!"
"I've met you!"
"Who are you?"
A/N: so...yeah, I think I didn't do a nice work. My mind was blank when I wrote this, honestly. I'm just spilling what came to my mind. Anyways, I'm accepting OCs here, feel free to drop your OC's info by PM. Remember, PM, not review. 'Cuz I don't want the characters to be spoiled. XD
So yeah, thank you very much for reading! Constructive reviews are appreciated! :D
Random Note: Kuroko an Kise are not here yet. So this is what I thought would be Midorima's reaction to 'invisible' people like Kuroko.
[1] another way to say 'yo' in Japanese.
