A DISK JOCKEY'S FIRST

A few things that I wish to announce. First off, I congratulate XT-421 for his completion of Seed of Love: Part 4. Very nice ending to finish the story. Well done.

Also, I had probably one of the greatest nights in my life last night. We had this huge party at my high school called the 'C-Bash', which is a new name for the school fete. There was food, drinks, loads of stalls, we even had our local band, Centre Excuse, who actually 'did their time' at Casterton, come and play.

We had a tug-of-war competition, which our house won! Whoo hoo! We won the finals of Casterton's Got Talent, which is a mock up of Britain's Got Talent, so another whoo hoo!

And, I got to know some friends better.

So, all in all, a fairly good night.

Now, chapter 2.


CHAPTER 2

DECLARING LOVE (PART 2)

30 minutes before

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the University, Carlos the Lion and Alex the Tiger were fiercely training for their upcoming DJ battle; and what better way to train, but by their favourite Xbox game, DJ Hero. (A/N: Lol)

As the song came to its final stretch, and Carlos tapping at the pads furiously whilst sliding the cross-fader and scratching the turntables in time to the beats of the song they were going to play tomorrow, the song came to its final beats. A flame lit up in Carlos' eyes as he flashed his fingers down on the required pads whilst spinning around to face his friend.

"BOO YAH! 100% AND 860450! BEAT THAT!" Carlos yelled towards his friend Alex, who had to cover his ears he was so loud!

"I have to admit that was impressive," Alex admitted. "But do you really think you have what it takes to compete with the might Scratch Pervert?"

Carlos got slightly annoyed with that nickname. "Oh, enough with the 'Scratch Pervert' business! I'm gonna whoop your ass tomorrow and you know it!" he proudly announced.

"Hey! Keep it down! Some of us have exams tomorrow so shut your traps!" An obviously cranky voice yelled through the wall.

"Sorry!" Alex yelled back.

"You'd better be!" The voice shut up after that.

Carlos looked at the white tiger and sniggered quietly. It seemed they took everything as a joke nowadays.

"You know, it's been 2 months ever since we first met." Alex announced.

Carlos nodded. "Aye, and a good 2 months at that." he said as they both began to have flashbacks of the day they met.

Flashback

Carlos stood outside of room 28, staring. He didn't know what to expect. "Well... Here goes nothing." he gulped as he slowly entered the room.

Immediately, his eyes caught the sight of posters hanging on the wall, from Dragonforce to Metallica. But there was a big one hanging above a bed. A Noisia poster.

Being a huge fan, Carlos' eyes widened at the Noisia poster. He walked up to it and stared at it. There wasn't much on it, just the band name in a robotic style of writing and the back of a futuristic car. But this didn't matter, Carlos was a fan of Noisia and that was that.

"Hey? Are you Carlos?" A voice popped up from beside him. Carlos turned to see a white Siberian tiger, about the same age as him, standing beside him with a fierce look in his eyes. He wore a black Metallica T-shirt with some baggy, blue jeans and some heavy gothic boots.

"Uh... Yeah. T... That's me." Carlos stammered at the look in his eyes. But instead of doing what Carlos expected, the tiger just walked up a slapped him on the back, making him stumble.

"Well. I've been waiting for at least a month. The name's Alex, though most people around here call me the Scratch Pervert." Alex proudly announced.

Carlos collected enough bearings to speak after that almighty slap. "The Scratch Pervert?" he asked without a clue.

Alex just laughed. "Listen kid, I'm known all around the school for my professional DJ skills. Stick by me, and life here could be a walk in the park."

Carlos smiled nervously. "Wow that's weird. As a matter of fact, I'm actually looking into doing music GCSE."

Alex looked at him. "Huh? Why's that weird?"

Carlos flushed slightly. "I... Uh... I wanna be a DJ." he said quietly.

Alex began grinning like a madman. "Well! Then you've come to the right person," Alex informed Carlos, who sweat-dropped. "So, you wanna be a DJ? It's gonna take an awful lot of practice... Are you ready?"

Carlos nodded wildly, making Alex smirk. "Well let's find out shall we?"

End Flashback

Carlos took a seat next to Alex and opened up 2 cans of Pepsi. "Here's to the battle." he held his drink up, gesturing him to do the 'Cheers'.

Alex understood this as he took his can and opened it. "To the battle. May the best Disk Jockey win." he said whilst tapping his can with Carlos', making the slight clunk that always occurs.

5 minutes passed as nothing but the sound of their favourite song played fairly quietly from the stereo.

"So, thinking of inviting anyone as a V.I.P.?" Alex asked, breaking the silence.

Carlos then began to think; who was he going to give V.I.P. access to? "Well, I know we've been swamped by loads of people, but I'm thinking on inviting Anna and Roxi." Carlos suggested aloud.

"Those 2 chicks from the East Wing?" Alex almost slurred.

Carlos nodded slightly. "Well... Yeah. I mean, wouldn't you invite your friends?" Carlos asked.

This stumped Alex. He was never good at rhetorical questions.

But he always had a way around them.

"Beh..." He mumbled.

See?

Carlos nudged him slightly. "Oh c'mon? Don't tell me I'm your only friend." Carlos joked in a teasing manner.

"Oh shut up!" Alex joked with annoyance. "So why are you inviting them?"

"Oh I've known them for a long time."

Alex shrugged. "Do what you want dude, you know how to do it."

Carlos sighed. It was this sort of attitude that he didn't prefer. He looked at the clock. '10:26' it read. "Okay. I say we hit the sack." he yawned.

Alex nodded in agreement as he heaved his ass off of the sofa and into his bed. "Night." He said from across the room.

"Night... SP." Carlos smiled. But as the lights went off, Carlos didn't sleep. One thought kept him up. 'Anna...' he thought as he remembered how they met. (A/N: This will be the same flashback as before.)

Flashback

When Carlos returned to his position, the only other member was a black lioness sitting there, head in her knees, crying quietly. "Hey, where are all the others?" He asked curiously. No response. That's when Carlos realised that there were no others; they'd been killed during the divert. He took the black lioness and hugged her gently. "Hey. It's not the end of the world. Who are you?" He asked in a gentle tone.

The girl took her head away from her knees, revealing her crystal blue eyes that were red and puffy from the crying. She sniffled. "A... Anna." She said quietly, her voice a bit horse, also from the crying.

"Well Anna, I'm just gonna speak to Sarah for a moment. Stay here and keep out of sight." He told her as he crawled off to find Sarah.

End Flashback

Carlos continued to think about Anna until he realized what was happening. He was falling in love!

But, Carlos smiled warmly. "Goodnight. I hope you two can get everything set up in time." he mouthed to himself as he curled up into his sleep, ready... for the day ahead.


Well, that's the Declaring Love parts done. Onto the nitty-gritty.

Oh, and I hope that GreatGrape pleased with this. He gave some pretty good tips, though I think I only followed 1. Lol.

R&R please

SB-420 ;)
