CelestialxXxAngel: Thanks for being my first reviewer, luv. I'm glad you like it! ^.^ That's a good guess, but no, and yes many people will. As for Chad, well, my A/N at the bottom will answer that. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: No own, ne? Song is 'Sticks and Stones' by The Pierces.
SMALL EDIT AND NEW A/N AT BOTTOM
The beat of the music pulsed through the dimly lit bar, the crowd jeering as the group of five took the stage. A short girl with spiked up red hair on keyboard/synthesizer, a pudgy brown-haired boy on drums, a lanky blond with an electric guitar, the large muscular form of Chad with his bass, and in the center the voluptuous silhouette of Kinomi herself, her hips swaying hypnotically to the beat. At the tables nearest the stage sat a frowning Ichigo, arms crossed grumpily. Beside him on either side were Rukia and Orihime, with Renji sitting across from him. At the next table over sat Ikkaku, Yumichika, Shuhei and Izuru, and at the last table sat Rangiku, her diminutive taicho, and Uryuu. As the Shinigami looked on curiously, having never seen a human musical performance of this kind, the beat changed, and Kinomi spun elegantly, her eyes intense as she gazes out at the crowd, full red lips parting as her voice fills the bar.
"Hey, domino, I am stopping you from falling. One, two, three, don't you dare go down." She sang softly, stepping forward slowly. "Hey waterfall, oh, can you hear me calling? Three, two, one, don't you dare touch the ground." She took another step, then seemed to glide across the short distance to stand atop the center of the nearest table, Ikkaku in front of her, Shuhei to her right, Izuru behind her, and Yumichika to her left.
"I'm the one you want, I'm the one you want, I'm the one you want, I'm the one you want." She sang huskily, swaying seductively as she smoothed her hands over her curves, before planting a small, bare foot on Ikkaku's chest and pushing, catching him unawares and making him fall back.
"Sticks and stones will break your bones, and leave you lying in the mud, but you get scared when we're alone, like I might suck your blood" She dropped down above him as she sings, landing with her feet on either side of his hips, and bends down, giving him an eyeful of her cleavage as she trails one long red nail down his cheek. Then suddenly she's leaning over Renji's shoulder, pressed against his back as she sings next to his ear.
"And I could tell you a witch's spell, but it just might blow your top. You start to run just as I'm having fun, and it's awfully hard to stop. It's awfully hard to stop." Slowly she prowls towards a different table, staring into the eyes of a tall dark-haired man, her hips swaying seductively.
"Sun in the sky, I am stopping you from burning. All we need is stars and moon. Clock on the wall I will keep your hands from turning, or this night will end too soon." Standing right before him, just out of reach, she stops and begins to undulate her hips. "I'm the one you want, I'm the one you want, I'm the one you want, I'm the one you want." As the man reaches out to touch her, she twirls away, her kimono flaring around her legs.
"Sticks and stones will break your bones, and leave you lying in the mud, but you get scared when we're alone, like I might suck your blood" She stalks towards a rather thuggish looking young man with orange hair that she knows as Oshima, the wanna-be tough-guy that likes to pick fights with her brother. "And I could tell you a witch's spell, but it just might blow your top. You start to run just as I'm having fun, and it's awfully hard to stop." She looks down her nose at him with visible disdain and spins again, flitting elegantly towards the stage."It's awfully hard to stop."
Flipping up onto the stage, she turns to face her audience and brings her hands up slowly by her sides, her eyes focused intently on the shinigami and a wicked smirk on her lips as a wisp of power leaks from each hand. Their eyes widen as the wisps reshape into two transparent women. The one on her left is very tall and slender, with skin as pale as freshly-fallen snow and waist-length lavender hair. Her kimono is violet with a lavender obi and the same belled sleeves as Kinomi's, its pattern looking akin to scales, and in her hand she holds a tessen, spread to hide all but her left eye, exotically slanted with no iris or pupil, just pure endless blackness. Opposite the rather serpentine lady, on Kinomi's right side, was another. This woman was shorter and far curvier, beating out even Rangiku, and practically oozed sexuality. She has lightly tanned skin and silver-white hair cut short to frame her face, and was wearing a bright blue furisode patterned with silver and dark-blue foxes, fastened loosely with a long silver sash, draping low across her shoulders and barely containing her bosoms. Her most interesting features, however, were the tall silver fox ears atop her head and the luxurious fluffy silver tail swaying slowly behind her.
"I call thee, beloved one, to love me more then anyone. Seven times I pierce my heart, and now you feel the magic start." Their voices blend together, a cool sibilant soprano and husky purring contralto harmonizing beautifully with Kinomi's mezzo-soprano in a haunting chant. "Bind thy heart and soul to me, as I do will. So let it be."
"Ooh~" Kinomi sang out, dropping to her knees and slowly crawling towards the end of the stage. "Hey loverboy, oh, now do you believe me? That's not all that I can do." She locked eyes with Toushiro, who had begun to stand, and slipped off the stage to sashay towards him. "Sit back down, I'm afraid we won't be leaving. Can't undo my spell on you." She slid onto his lap, straddling him as she stared into his eyes.
"I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...). I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...). I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...). I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...)." As she sang as though only to him, she swayed in his lap, drawing ever closer. "I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...). I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...). I'm the one you want~ (I'm the one you want...). I'm the one you want." She comes within a hairs breadth of kissing him, then suddenly she's gone, prowling towards another table.
"Sticks and stones will break your bones, and leave you lying in the mud, but you get scared when we're alone, like I might suck your blood." She sings, approaching Shuhei seductively, leaning in close. "And I could tell you a witch's spell, but it just might blow your top. You start to run just as I'm having fun, and it's awfully hard to stop." Lifting one shapely leg, she slides her calf along his inner thigh, causing him to unconsciously splay his legs which allows her to tuck her toes just under the crotch of his pants, planting the ball of her foot on the edge of the chair.
"Well, sticks and stones will break your bones, and leave you lying in the mud, but you get scared when we're alone, like I might suck your blood." Running her fingers through his silky hair, she cups the back of his neck and uses it as leverage to lift herself up on her raised foot and place the other one on the table. "And I could tell you a witch's spell, but it just might blow your top. You start to run just as I'm having fun, and it's awfully hard to stop." She can't resist wiggling her toes against him before she steps the rest of the way onto the table.
"It's awfully hard to stop.." She twists away, gliding back onto the stage with grace. "It's just too hard to stop..." She spins to face the audience, her kimono flaring out. "I don't think I can stop~!" She strikes a final seductive pose, and the stage goes dark, the song over.
Flitting down off the stage, she slips her feet back into her geta and approaches her brothers table, hopping up to sit atop it and crossing her legs. The shinigami notice, then, that the pair of transparent women were gone without a trace. Kinomi only smiles with faux innocence at them., amber eyes glittering mischievously.
A/N: Hey, all. I'm putting up a poll in my profile to decide the pairing, so make sure you vote, okay?
Hey, y'all. Sorry it's been such a long time since I last updated this, but life got real busy. I'm planning to start working on this story again this week, so hopefully there will be a new chapter out soon.
