Chapter One: Kyle and Takoyaki

Shuichi, Hiro, Suguru, and Sakano were walking down the hall of the N-G Productions building towards Studio B when they heard someone playing Hiro's guitar, Suguru's keyboard and singing.

They all looked at each other and saw that everyone was there, except for K, but he was never on time.

"Who's that making that music?" Suguru asked.

"I don't know." Sakano said. "But we had this studio reserved for the entire day."

"Maybe they just got the studio rooms mixed up." Hiro said trying to calm Sakano down.

Shuichi listened to the music for another moment. Whoever was making it sounded awesome. "Come on guys; let's see who's making it." Shuichi said reaching for the handle of the door and pulling it open.

Inside the studio was their manager K sitting on a folding chair playing Hiro's guitar and standing behind Suguru's keyboard singing and playing her heart out was a girl about Shuichi's height. She had dark brown hair that was short in a pixie cut, dark brown eyes that were behind black plastic framed glasses. And she had five piercing in each ear, not counting cartilages and wore very little make-up. She had on a MASH baseball hat, a pink spaghetti strap tank top, sweat bands on each wrist, jeans, and black converse low tops.

The girl opened on of her eyes and stopped singing and playing. "K, stop playing!" she hissed.

K looked up from the guitar and smiled. "Hey guys." He said putting the guitar back on its stand.

Sakano's jaw dropped. "What the hell was that?" He cried. He looked at the girl. "Who the hell are you!?"

The girl bowed before Sakano. "I'm sorry for using your instruments without permission." She said to the floor.

"It's all right." Hiro said. "But still, who are you?"

"She's my sister Squid. She just moved to Japan." K said wrapping his arm around the girl's shoulders.

The girl pushed K away. "K, how many times do I have to tell you? That's not my name!" she cried.

K laughed at his sister. "So what is your name?" Suguru asked.

"Kyle," the girl said bowing again. "Kyle Winchester."

"But I call her Squid because her favorite food is takoyaki." K said.

Hiro smiled, he too liked takoyaki. "So what are you doing at the studio?" he asked.

"K was showing me where he works and when he showed me where you guy's would be recording today, I couldn't help myself." Kyle said blushing.

"Do you play any other instruments or just keyboards?" Shuichi asked.

"It's more of a question of what instrument doesn't she play." K laughed.

"Oh," Hiro said raising his eyebrows. "You play a lot of instruments?"

"I just play guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards." Kyle said blushing harder. "Plus I can do vocals."

Shuichi, being un-characteristically quiet finally blurted out, "Why don't you join our band?"

"What?" Kyle cried. "No, I couldn't."

"Hey, that's a great idea Shuichi. You could play bass and sing back up." Hiro said getting into the idea.

"Yeah Kyle, you'd be great in a band." K said. "You've always wanted to be a famous rock star."

"I don't know," Kyle said. "Are you sure you guys want me in your band?"

Shuichi nodded his head vigorously, almost breaking his neck.

"Yeah, it would be awesome to have a bass player in the band." Hiro said. He then grinned evilly and whispered. "And it doesn't hurt she's a pretty girl."

"Whatever," Suguru said closing his eyes and crossing his arms. "I couldn't care less."

K took a few steps towards the teenager, pulled out his gun and held it to Suguru's forehead. "Careful what you say about my kid sister." K hissed.

Suguru held up his hands and sweat began to pour down his face. "I mean, I would love for Kyle to join the band, but what about Tohma?"

"Oh," everyone said in unison.

"Well he let Suguru join like that." Shuichi said snapping his fingers. "Maybe he'll do the same for Kyle."

"But you're forgetting one key thing there." Hiro said. "Suguru is Tohma's cousin."

All the men looked at Kyle. "Come on, let's go ask Tohma." Sakano said.

XXXX

Sakano, Hiro, Shuichi, Suguru, K and Kyle stood outside Tohma's office, afraid to knock. They had all squeezed into the elevator to get to Tohma's office on the top floor only to be too frightened to even knock on the door.

Sighing Kyle reached out her hand and quickly rapped on the door but pulled her hand back fast as if she had been burned. "Big babies are you men or are you mice?" she asked.

"Come in." a sweet voice said. The doors opened and sitting at his desk was the one and only Tohma Seguchi.

"Yes?" Tohma asked looking at the five familiar faces and one unfamiliar.

All six of them bowed, Tohma blushed a little when he caught sight of Kyle's chest. "Mr. President," Sakano said. "We have a request."

Tohma regained his composure and looked at all six of them. "Oh, and what is this request?" he asked.

K pushed Kyle forward so Tohma could get a better look at her. "Mr. Boss-man, this is Kyle. She would like to join Bad Luck." K said beaming.

Tohma looked at the girl. She was a little older than Suguru but still younger than Shuichi. "What would you do in the band?" he asked.

Kyle blushed. "Well, Hiro said something about playing bass and singing back up for Shuichi." Kyle said in a quiet voice.

"Do you have any history in the music industry?" Tohma asked leaning forward in his chair.

Kyle smiled. "Just that I was the lead guitarist and lead vocalist in a band called Blacksmith." She replied. "From when I was 15 to when we broke up eight months ago."

Tohma raised his eyebrows. Blacksmith had been the American version of his band; Nittle Grasper. But Tohma had thought Blacksmith had only guys in its band.

"Blacksmith, wow, and then I guess there's not much I can say other than I'll have a contract drawn up right away." Tohma said extending his hand.

Kyle smiled and shook Tohma's hand. "Thank you, thank you very much."
