Bankotsu stepped up to the mike and made his selection. The lyrics came up on the screen as the opening bars of "Don't Be Cruel" started. As he sang, his life-partner, Jakotsu sat there, trying hard not to laugh. It was not that Bankotsu sang badly, it was just that the cross-dresser found his Elvis impersonation rather funny, especially after having several Kirins.

"Don't be cruel to a heart that's true… Don't be cruel to a heart that's true… I don't want no other love, Baby, it's just you I'm thinking of…"

Bankotsu rolled his eyes at him and continued singing. "Don't stop thinking of me;
don't make me feel this way… Come on over here and love me, you know what I want you to say… Don't be cruel to a heart that's true… Why should we be apart? I really love you baby, cross my heart…" He swiveled his hips like Elvis.

Jakotsu sat there, shaking with laughter. Karaoke was one of his favorite dates to go on with his life-partner as he loved hearing him sing. Plus they always went to one of the old, hole-in-wall pubs that were filled with old men, instead of tourists and "kids."

"Don't be cruel to a heart that's true… Don't be cruel to a heart that's true… I don't want no other love, Baby, it's just you I'm thinking of…"

"Bravo!" Jakotsu cried as he stood up. The others in the bar joined him in the standing ovation. The bar's owner handed Bankotsu a crown and his prize money for his winning Elvis impersonation. He bought a round of drinks, before leaving.

"I can't believe I get to go home with the King, Kouga's going to be so jealous…" Jakotsu teased.

"Hey! Don't be cruel to a heart that's true…"
