The Interview
"Okay guys, they will bring out Land of Enchantment and talk to them for a bit. When they talk about the tour the girls will call Tokio Drift out. Got it?" Jost said, getting nods and 'yeahs in return.
"Okay girls get ready." Mickey called and we got up and walked out.
"And here they are! The girls from the amazing new band, Land of Enchantment! Nicole, Victoria, Burgundy, Claudia and Amber!" The interviewer called, and we walked out on stage.
"Hello girls! Well I'm going to get to something EVERYONE wants to know: How did you meet and where did you get your name?" The interviewer asked.
We laughed. "Well the name is easy, how we met is the hard part….." Cole and I replied.
"So how did you get your name?"
I began to sing. "Come Little Children, I'll take thee away, Into a Land of Enchantment."
"Ahhhh. Come Little Children from Hocus Pocus. A great poem by Edgar Allen Poe." She said. "Now, the meeting….."
"Lets see, Claudia and I knew each other longest…. About 10 years now, we met in second grade." Cole said, getting started.
"Second grade, that long?" Claudia nodded, "But your not as close as Nicole and Victoria are. Why is that?"
"Well, that's because those two are so alike, they are practically the same person but complete opposites at the same time. I think they're spirit twins or 'soul mates'. Nothing romantic or anything, just their souls complete each other, kind of like Bob and Tim Kaulitz." Claudia explained and Amber and Burgundy nodded.
"Okay then. That's interesting…"
"No, seriously, if one got hurt and put in the hospital, the other would sleep at the foot of the bed. Not leaving till the other was released. Tori did it to Nicole after she broke 3 ribs in a rock climbing accident." Burgundy butt in.
"Hey! Shut up! And it was 4 not 3!" Cole and I said together. "We aint that similar!" We looked at each other. "Okay maybe a little bit…" Then we started laughing.
"So, Victoria, Nicole, how did you meet?" The interviewer asked.
"Well we met freshmen year in French, took it for two years of it, can't speak a word, one day we just started talking, and well, the rest is history." Cole said.
"Half of our teachers never saw one of us without the other, and when one of us is sick, they say we look lost." I continued.
"Wonderful, what about Burgundy and Amber? How did you meet them?"
"Well I met Burgundy one day after band camp my sophomore, her junior year. We went to MooYa's and they pronounced her name wrong, saying Burgandy, and then she went to ALL of the other tables looking for ketchup. It was at least 11 at night. It was hilarious!" Cole said and Burgundy laughed, nodding.
"And I met Amber my sophomore year in my choir class. She was just a fishy at the time." I explained, Amber nodded.
"That's all good, now, what about relationships, seeing anyone, any family?"
"We don't want to get into that, we would like to keep them safe from crazy fans and Media, but both of us and Claudia are in long term relationships from before this began." Cole and I replied.
"Oh, Okay then, any Tours coming up?" We all smiled at this.
"Why yes there is. We will be starting in one month here in Houston, then doing a concert in two cities in every state in the U.S. and then 3 cities in Germany, France, Italy, England, and Spain." Cole and I replied.
"God! Its like you planned this! Oh wait you did.. Haha silly me. And how do you plan to sell in Europe? Are you known there?"
"No, we aren't known, but we will have some help from some friends…."
"Really from who?"
"Our inspiration of course! Tokio Drift! Come on out guys!" We waved them out.
The guys walked out and sat down next to us. The crowd went crazy.
"Oh! Hello guys! I thought you were writing a new album! How long have you been hanging out with the girls? And what's it like?"
"Hallo! We are but our manager showed us a video of them covering Schrei, and we couldn't pass up a chance to meet them. We met them this morning at their studio and it was…..interesting to say the least." Bob answered.
"How was it interesting?"
Tim answered this one. "Hallo beautiful, its Kaci, Correct?" Kaci nodded. "Well, Kaci, Nicole is very open with her opinion, she told Bob what she thought about his hair 3 seconds after meeting us. Victoria is a little bit shy, but put her in with Nicole and they are funnier then two ferrets. Claudia has an attitude, but is an AMAZING cook. Amber can't get a word in edge wise and Burgundy seems….. a little out there, but can kick ass at the same time, and the girl has style."
"Thank you Tim, but you forgot to mention that we are better at Halo then you." Burgundy said.
Tim pouted and leaned back on the couch.
"So guys, what do you think touring will be like with Land of Enchantment? And what songs are you doing?" Kaci addressed the guys.
"Touring is going to be fun, it looks like. We are not sure what songs we are doing yet. And since they are younger and in relationships, we don't have to worry about insane rumors. And we don't have to worry about Tim, Nicole already put him is his place." Bob stated, elbowing Tim, making him pout more. Everyone laughed.
"Oh come on Tom, its not as hot without the dreads and a boyish face." I told him. Tom smirked.
"Oh, so it was hot?" He asked.
"Yeah, when you where 17 and 18. Now your 21 and it would be pedophile-ish and illegal to hit in us." Cole told him, sending him to a deeper pout.
"Oi! Come off it, we aint got to please ya, you lily livered toad." Nicole said with an Irish accent.
"What?" George asked, completely and utterly confused. This sent the girls, Bob, Nicole, and I into hysterical laughter.
"Well its going to be an interesting tour it looks like, and with LOE's Life and TD TV, I can't wait to see what happens." Kaci said as she turned to the camera. "Well that's all the time we have today, see ya next time when we interview 1D, good bye!"
"And we are clear." The camera man said and Kaci quit smiling and flopped down in her chair.
"Ugh, I don't want to interview One Erection, I mean Direction…"
"It's okay Kaci, you'll get through it. How did you become an interviewer anyway? Last time I saw you, you sang Alto in your college choir." Nicole questioned. And then as if finally remembering only her and Claudia had ever met Kaci before she introduced us "Oh, guys, this is Kaci, she was in color guard my freshman year, she was a senior."
"Oh, crap, it was good to see you again, Squirt, but I have a date." Kaci said standing up.
"Good to see you too darling, okay, let's go home, its like 5." Cole said standing up and walking out to the car.
An hour later Cole and I were in our house and Claudia, Burgundy and Amber where showing the guys around our small town of Friendswood.
" Hey Tori, could you go down stairs, I would like to dance for a bit." Nicole asked me, biting her lip reminding me that even though I had seen her dance before she was still really self conscious of it.
"Yeah, sure Cole." I left the room and ran downstairs grabbed my book and then came up to my room where I could hear Nicole's music coming from the door she left open yet again and curled up on my beanbag losing myself in a world of words. It was about an hour later when I heard talking and it didn't register that someone besides Cole and I were upstairs and then I heard the music shut off and the twins' voices float down the hallway. I sat my book down and silently padded down the hall to the studio to find out what was going on and I ran into Claudia who was freaking out saying they couldn't find the twins and asking if I a had seen them. I shook my head and she flew back down the stairs mumbling about how Jost was gonna kill her for losing twin rock stars. I decided to play the dumb card and flew into the studio and looked at Nicole and started talking a mile a minute to make myself more believable. "Hey have you seen Bob und Tim, we can't….." I stopped dead acting as if I didn't know they were there and I had only just seen them. Then I realized why Cole had turned the music off. "They saw you dancing didn't they?"
She nodded.
I frowned slightly and turned to face them. "DON'T TELL ANYONE!"I quickly made up an excuse to leave. "So anyways, the G's are hungry, we are gonna go out to eat, lets go!" And with that I flitted off. Once downstairs I told the girls we were going out to eat and when Nicole and the guys got downstairs they were talking about where they wanted to go.
When Cole got to the bottom of the steps, Georg looked up. "What's on your boots?"
She looked down. "Mud and muck."
"Muck?" Tim asked and Claudia and I started laughing, knowing the answer.
"Horse shit." She said calmly while walking towards the door. She stopped dead. My mind clicked with hers. SHIT! How could we have forgotten.
Nicole interrupted my thoughts by verbally speaking her frustration. "OH FICK! I forgot to go to the barn today! I have a show with Cookie in a week! And Belle just had Midnight! We need to got to the Barn!"
She took off for her truck when she heard us behind her.
"Who's Cookie?" Bob asked.
"You'll see." I responded snickering and jumped into my old blue Chevy pickup.
