This is to Black Rose but its chapter 2
In the dead of night in front of Tokyo Tower, there's a concert going on. Fans are cheering for the band playing their music on stage and as the band plays a truly powerful song. They seem to be having the time of their lives. As both bassists wale on their guitars, the crowd of 345,000 become estatic about the noise that would break the sound barrier. Suddenly their is a buzzing sound...Its an alarm clock..
"aw man!" said the young girl crawling out of bed "you wern't supposed to wake me up..at least not this early!"
The young girl's name is Sayuri Ryuunosuke, around when she was 5 she has been a musical prodigy, able to play any instument she can get her hands on. The thing is, noone knows where she gets her tallents from all that can be said about sayuri's musical genius is...amazing.
Sayuri headed out the door for school and as usual to met up with her best friends. As she reached the school, she met up with her friends Mayumi Misaki and Hikari Momoko. The three have known each other for many years and practically know everything about each other although Sayuri is a bit secretive at times.
"Hello Sayu-" Mayumi was cut off by Hikari who jumped on Sayuri and hugged her tightly
"SAYURI'S BACK IN MY LIFE AGAIN!" exclaimed Hikari
"hello Hikari as cheeful as always" said Sayuri
Sayuri looked at her dear friends as they talked. looking at Hikari, she has blood red hair. Hikari swithced it up so that she could let some of her hair hang over her left eye. She was taller than the other two. Sayuri had known Hikari for having a major crush on her. Sayuri did not seem to mind, although it was a little annoying at times. But even so, she valued the valued the friendship between them.
Sayuri,Hikari, and Mayumi all went on ahead to school where they would see which classes they would have for this was going to be their first year of high school.
"Oh!" said Mayumi
"I've got the same class as Sayuri again this year!"
Sayuri looked over to her friend who cheered in excitement. On the other hand, Hikari looked over at her name and saw that it wasn't in the same class as Sayuri or Mayumi
"Damn...If I'm not near my mentor...I don't know if I'll survive this year!" the redhead said dramatically as she drew attention to herself.
after a few seconds,and another look at her class roster, Hikari had a thought pop into her head.
"But the class I'm has some of the cutest girls in school so its not a total loss" thinking this, a creepy smile crept on her face.
(After School)
Sayrui was talking with her homeroom teacher Natsumi Hakubi, a single 25 year old english teacher for who has known Sayuri for years, in fact, she used to babysit sayuri when she was 5 years old...
"Well, I don't see you for a whole year and you don't write, call, or come visit me? some friend" teased Hakubi-sensei
"Im sorry Hakubi-sensei" Sayuri panicked "But I've been busy"
"Oh yeah thats right, You started doing that band of yours"
"Yup" said Sayuri "But we're still working out the kinks"
Hakubi-sensei took a sip of her apple juice and sat it down then looked at Sayuri with an evil grin and said
"Having a band is great and all...but you'd better stay on top of your school work or else"
Hakubi-sensei had somewhat of a violent nature, especially towards Sayuri, even though she cares deeply for her. This distubing fact scared Sayuri, even when she was younger.
Sayuri gulped "o-okay..well..I have to get going"
"Have a good rest of the day...Yuri-chan"
Sayrui had met up with Mayumi to walk home together..
"where's Hikari?" asked Sayuri
"She went ahead on home so that she could get her bass for later tonight" answered Mayumi
About when Sayuri went to Junior High, she began to search for people that had lots of musical talent. She had wanted to start a band so that she could satisfy and share her love of music with the people. She loved to listen to J-Rock bands such as Flow, Asian Kung-fu Generation, and June, But she was having a growing interest in western bands like Van Halen, The Doors, Queen, and Soundgarden. Most of the time, duing lunch, Sayuri would go up on the rooftop of the school where she hid an acustic guitar where she would play beautifuly for a few minutes, Then come back down. More than anything, Sayuri wanted to play music in a band so that she could satisfy that neverending appitite for music.
Months later,while still in Junior High, Sayuri found out about Hikari's homeroom class was doing a cafe for their school's cultural festival, so she decided to check it out. The cafe was just like anyother, with pretty girls dressed in cute outfits befiting theri moe traits and an assortment of tasty cakes and juices and teas, nothing that Sayuri hasn't seen before but after about a few minutes the lights went dim and out came three girls who each picked up an insturment, one of these girls was Sayuri's friend Hikari. Sayuri, being a music otaku, looked on at their performance...without blinking, she had an uncanny abillity to see the negative and positive things about the way a person performs. With her eyes fixed on Hikari, she could tell that she showed promise as a bass player. A while later when the performace was over, Sayuri went over to her friend.
"Hikari that was awesome!" Sayuri said hugging Hikari
"S-S-S-SAYURI!" Hikari was too happy with her crush embracing her to say anyting that made sense
The two sat down...and talked about how the performance was.
" Hikari, have you ever considered being in a band before?" The music lover asked
"well..yeah but I've heard lots of kids do bands these days and seem to find stardom quickly and fail just as fast" answered Hikari
"the reason is simply because they don't have the natural abillty to make their music stand out from everyone elses" said Sayuri
the converstation went on for about 45 minutes until Sayuri finally convinced Hikari to join her band.
Sayuri wanted this band of hers to become a three person band:
Bass-Hikari Momoko
Lead Guitar-Sayuri Ryunnosuke
Drums-?
Who, Who could it be that would give Sayuri the powerhouse drumming she needed for her band!
In order to think clearly, Sayuri needed to go to the rooftops again.
The music lover made it to the rooftop and saw a black haired girl attempting to play with her acoustic guitar.
the girl panicked and tried to put the guitar back quickly but fell down flat on her face. Sayrui went to help her and the girl started to cry.
"Whats wrong?" asked Sayuri
"please don't be mad..I was only interested in how you play this so well b-because I've heard you play before and your so amazing!" started the black haired girl
Sayuri paused for a second, and dusted the black haired girl's uniform off
"whats your name?" asked Sayuri
"M-Mayumi Misaki" she said
Now that name sounded familiar! It was Mayumi Misaki the superstar athlete of their school! super talented at baseball,volleyball, and track and field sports.
"w-what?" said Mayumi with her face a nice shade of barnhouse red
"Would you like to know how to play" asked Sayuri
"y-you're not mad?" asked the obviously shy girl
"no not at all, now would you like to learn how to play?"
Mayumi looked at this strange green haired girl who she thought was a genius, she had high hopes that she would be able to finally play an instument like she's always wanted to.
The next day Mayumi had went up on the roof top again to find her new friend Sayuri...
"H-Hello, Sayuri?"
Mayumi turned around and met with Sayuri's shiny cyan eyes then fell down in shock.
"Hey" Sayuri said calmly "ready for practice?" she reached out to help Mayumi up
"Yes!" she let out a bit too loud, she started to turn red from embarassment
"Hahahahaha you're so cute!" Sayrui said bluntly
After that Sayuri had taught Mayumi how to play the drums. Sayuri had shown Mayumi drummers such as Lars Ulrich,Travis Barker, and Taylor Hawkins
suprisingly Mayumi picked it up quickly than Sayuri had expected but she had finally found the final peice to her puzzle.
soon after, Sayuri introduced Mayumi to Hikari and started their first practice together as the band Black Rose...
