The next morning, Misao was in her bedroom sharpening up her Grungy attire, humming to Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana at the same time. She had put on her white T-shirt, her baggy trousers pulled up to her knees, and adjusting her hair too look the part.
"Bingo!" she said in satisfaction "but there is one thing missing!" then we went to find her brother's roll on deodorant, and applied it in thick concentration.
"Hehehehe" she giggled "I smell like Teen Spirit! Note that that's the inspiration to the classic grunge anthem!" she headed back to her room and got her trusty Candy Apple Red Jazzmaster out and plugged it into her little Marshall MS-2 pocket amplifier, and clipped it onto her pocket.
"I am the Indie heroine!" she gleamed as he looked herself into the mirror. Then the doorbell rang.
Misao rushed down, with everything, and answered the door, there waiting was Tsuraya, Konata, Patricia, Minami with the addition of Yutaka.
"HI GUYS!" Chirped Misao as she opened the door "I am the Indie rock heroine!"
"My!" remarked Patricia "You really are like Kurt Cobain!"
"Hehehehe, thanks, better than that screaming and roaring bastard from Maximum The Hormone!" replied Misao, and mockingly imitated the intro growl on "What's up People?"
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWR! SAY RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR! Ok that hurt my throat!"
Tsuraya Laughed.
Konata sniffed "Misakichi, what is that smell?" she asked
Misao replied "It's Teen Spirit!" and laughed
Minami butted in "I think it's deodorant"
"DEODORANT?!" everyone except Misao exclaimed
"That smells like Men's deodorant Misao, that must be your brother's, why did you put it on" said Yutaka.
"Yeah I did put my brother's deodorant on!" replied Misao "For a true Grunge Spirit odour!"
Misao invited everyone to her Garden, where asked her brother to make some drinks. He then sniffed suspiciously "Onee-Chan? Why did you put my deodorant on?!" he asked all surprised.
"Because it's part of my Grunge Spirit Attire!" laughed Misao "Don't worry, I still shave of my body hair, not like that is causing addition undesired odours!"
"Ah..." said her truly stunned brother "Oh well, what drinks do you have in mind"
"I'd say Blackcurrant juice with a lemon slice, with them little cocktail umbrellas and some decoration, you get the idea!" replied Misao
"Ok!" Her brother replied and got to work on the drinks as she picked up her guitar and went outside with the others.
"Misao! Lemme hear ya rock out!" everyone chimed.
"Sure thing!" replied Misao as she turned on her pocket amplifier and set on the overdrive channel and turned up the volume. Then she struck a power chord riff compromising of an E, G, F , A, E, G, F , B power chord sequence, striking each power chord twice before switching to the next power chord *ok you get the idea*
"Whoa! That really does rock" exclaimed Patricia
"EPIC!" giggled Tsuraya
"Do it again!" cheered Konata
But then Misao's brother arrived with the drinks. "I hope your fun in the sun doesn't go unchecked, have you put sun cream on?" he asked
"YES!" chimed all the girls "I put some on all of them" said Misao
"Good, have fun you little scallywags!" said Misao's brother as he headed back inside to carry on his studies.
"Us? Scallywags?!" giggled Patricia and Tsuraya "Indeed!"
"We are naturally scallywags!" giggled Konata "except for Minami I guess"
"Hrmmm" groaned Minami and she took a sip of the blackcurrant juice.
Misao took a sip of juice and then did a little something with the tremolo arm of her Jazzmaster, then turned off the overdrive to hear it in clean tone.
"Ya know Misao" said Patricia "That seems to remind me of a train passing"
"Really?" Replied Misao, then she played the A Barre Chord again and pressed down on the tremolo bar.
"Yes it does make me think of it, like the engineer blowing the horn of his engine while it rumbles by"
"Would that be the Doppler effect?" asked Minami
"If only Miyuki was here" groaned Konata. Then she took a sip of her juice.
Misao took another sip of juice and then said "Hey, listen to this, you will find this interesting!" Then she starting picking in the section between the bridge and the tremolo unit creating a chiming sound. It was a sound that made Konata almost fall asleep. Misao then did it on all 6 strings at one then wiggled the Tremolo arm, making a very distinct sound.
"Whoa!" said Patricia "That sounds like, ummm, ummm, ummm, sound almost like bells of heaven"
"Well" replied Misao "It does have a heavenly sound when you do something like that! Artists like Sonic Youth have done that sorta thing!"
Yutaka slurped down the last of her juice and let out a big burp.
"BUR..BUR..BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURP!"
"Pardon you Yutaka!" blurted Patricia hastily, but Tsuraya and Misao laughed "OH THIS IS SUCH A FANGDANGO!"
Misao quickly turned on the overdrive again and strummed that same riff she had impressed the others with. The pickups of her Jazzmaster gave it this very awesome tone that was just right for all that Grunge and Indie stuff that she was in to.
Minami gave a slight chortle, she for once found it funny.
Then shortly after all the girls had finished their juice and Misao had put the glasses inside, a figure with lighter green hair walked up to them. Tsuraya had already answered the door with Misao, as she was expecting her to arrive anytime. It was Kimdori.
Konata gasped in amazement "Is that Kimdori?" She asked
Patricia was in the same level of amazement as Konata was "This has to be Kimdori-san! Tsuraya said that she was coming over as well!" Kimdori laughed and introduced herself.
"Hi, I am Kimdori, one of Tsuraya's good friends, and I hear of a Fangdango going on between Giovanni Magnifico and Lorenzo Fantastico whoever they are, or is the Italian alter egos of."
"I am Giovanni Magnifico!" chirped out Tsuraya
"And I am Lorenzo Fantastico!" chimed in Misao
"Mamma Mia, Papa Romano!" and more random Italian was blurted out.
"Ok" Giggled Kimdori "Enough of all this Papa Italiano stuff, now who is who?"
"Konata, Patricia, Minami, Yutaka, Misao"
"Misao?" asked Kimdori "What is with the 1990's Seattle attire and the guitar?"
Misao quickly explained about her love of 80s/90s Alternative Rock, et al.
"When Misao is rocking on her guitar" said Patricia "She is the 80s/90s Grunge, Indie, Alternative in one guitar player!"
"YA DAMN RIGHT!" Squealed Misao and played another cool Power chord riff. The sound of the overdriven Jazzmaster just blew Kimdori's mind away. "That is just an epic grungy sound" she complimented. "You have the right guitar as well as the right looks and odour"
"Thanks!" replied Misao "That is my brother's deodorant by the way" and she giggled.
A little bit later as the Girls were singing Mottoke Sera Fuku with Misao on guitar, Kagami walked by, and she could hear all the noise coming from behind the garden fence. She opened the gate to Misao's back garden and everyone presently stopped.
"WHAT IS ALL THIS BLOODY CRAP?!" She snarled in an irate and rude manner.
"Kagami, never mind us!" Blurted Misao "We are having fun in the sun"
"More like making a fucking racket on a guitar and disturbing the neighbours" replied Kagami sharply. "and who is the other arse clown here?!"
"That's Kimdori!" said Konata "Kagami please, calm down!"
"HOW CAN I IF THESE FUCKING PISS FILLED WANKING ARSEHOLES ARE MAKING A COMPLETE RACKET IN THIS NEIGHBOURHOOD?!" bellowed Kagami "I was going out on stroll, I wish I never came here"
"I do apologize" said Konata to the other girls "She is an irate piss filled wanker, but she's on her period so this makes her extra irate"
"I AM GOING TO DUCK TAPE YOU FAT SHIT FILLED GOB SHUT!" Kagami thundered "YOU FUCKING PISS FILLED WANKERS WITH SHIT FILLED ARSEHOLES WHICH I AM GONNA DUCK TAPE EACH ANY EVERY ONE OF THEM SHUT!" and she stuck her middle finger up a Tsuraya and Kimdori then slammed the gate.
As Kagami stomped off, Konata chortled. Kimdori and Tsuraya were utterly shocked, they could not believe their ears.
"How rude" Groaned Misao "I think we have been heckled, I've now lost the motivation to carry on doing this, lets go into town for lunch and come back to it this afternoon, and I'll ask my brother to make us a snack for the evening."
"Sounds like a plan" the others said as they got up and headed off into town.
In town, they went into a restaurant that cooks Misao's favourite Meatballs, they settled down with a few plates of Sushi, and some other food and drinks as well.
"How rude can that girl be?" asked a stunned Kimdori to Konata
"She is tsundere, so duh" replied Konata "and she gets pissed of easily, she like a bull waiting to charge at you, and her temper tantrums are just hilarious!"
"Yeah!" said Misao "Like that one on Thursday, hahahahahahaha!"
"What is so funny about Kagami's tantrums?" puzzled Yutaka.
"They are just sooooooo Hilarious!" chortled Konata
"Yeah, they are a pretty good performance all right" butted in Patricia.
Minami just stared, she could not get the gist of it at all. "Considering she wanted to duck tape our anuses shut, how would we be able to poop?" she pondered
"No no no, don't go into that" replied Konata firmly "I would just remove the Duck tape from my arsehole"
"But Duck Tape is very strong" said Patricia "and it would hurt"
"Pah" snorted Konata "Kagami's threats are just complete bollocks, she is only full of piss"
The food presently arrived along with the drinks, Misao tucked into her favourite meatballs.
"Good thing I went to the loo this time" muttered Konata to herself.
Misao was clearly enjoying her favourite meatballs, they seemed 10 times better than the School Canteen's meatballs, but Misao didn't care in the slightest. They were her favourite Meatballs, and that was all that mattered.
Patricia asked the girls "For those of you who's gonna come with me to visit my uncle, have you got any ideas of what you want to spend your money on when we go shopping in the Bullring?"
Konata was quick to answer "Oh yeah, I would be buying Mangas and Anime DVDs, and some more games, and of course, sweets!"
"Erm...you do know the Mangas would be published in English?" Patricia pointed out.
"Yes, I ain't concerned" replied Konata strongly.
Minami came out with something "If they got a pet shop, then it would be some toys for Cherry"
"And some Chocolate hearts for you Minami-Chan!" heckled Yutaka
The others just laughed and Minami looked up at the ceiling.
"Yutaka, that were epic!" giggled Konata.
"Shut up" grumbled Minami all red in the face.
"No problemo!" chirped Yutaka.
"I dunno about Hiyori, bet she'd want some notepads for all the Dojini she's doing" giggled Misao "of course, I am gonna find the perfect gift for my family!"
Patricia responded gleefully "Don't forget to take cameras with you, and your cloths and stuff, I'll be talking to your parents about any special needs, because they all say yes, do they?"
"Yes" the girls replied.
"Good" responded Patricia "I cannot wait!"
Authors Notes:
The Fender Jaguar and Jazzmaster do make that chiming sound when strummed between the bridge and the tremolo system, it is used by artists like Sonic Youth and so on
Teen Spirit was actually a deodorant, it was another Kurt x Courtney thingy, cannot remember exactly.
I am note exactly sure if it's Motokke or Motekke...sorry If I am wrong
Stay tuned for the next few chapters!
