I'm alone once again, apparently, my dad is gonna ship Joseph (Joey) off to boarding school, he won't be writing anymore but I guarantee, I will try to be as good as him.

'I, Jaylyn Li (Ari), solemnly swear to improve and keep this account running at all costs.'

I am so inspired with other stories that I will start so many and will take forever to finish them but that is of course after I finish Soul Tamers trilogy and Izulde Academy, holidays begun, and I have plenty of time to update, enjoy this chapter and review at the end, pretty please, with a cherry on the top. Btw, I deleted the special chapter, it was too risky to keep.

PS. AHH! The stuff I fixed isn't loading!

Soul Tamers 01: The Truth is Unreal

Chapter 21: Shopping and (Concert Part 1)

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

It's being five days since the incident at the hideout, no one has forgotten it, indeed, many people had noticed Sora's hair and everything else, there had being many questions which they all managed to answer without blowing their cover. Sora had changed a lot, she is now wearing her school skirt everyday, they are yet to tell the other Soul bearers.

It was Friday and the day of Matt's concert, he, Kai, Kei, Yami and Kyou had being practising all week, right now, Sora, Matt, Yumi and Tai were sitting in their last class, History, listening to Mrs. Alembakis talk about how the people in Ancient Midgard farm, unsurprisingly, the class was paying attention, Mrs. Alembakis was a great teacher, she made everything fun, even for those who hated history, they enjoyed her classes, example: Tai.

Yumi noticed that, Mimi didn't give her dirty looks anymore, wonder why? Well, you'll soon find out.

Mrs. Alembakis had captured everyone's attention, "The ancient Midgardians used very modern tools, they used shovels and wheelbarrels, I want a two page essay about Farming on Monday, no later or receive zero for your mark and ten points off your group. The bell should ring about… now."

Just on cue, the bell rang, Mrs. Alembakis smiled and started collecting her stuff off the front counter, "You're all dismissed, have a nice weekend and don't forget to do your essay."

Everyone packed up and walked out of the classroom, Mimi and Izzy were walking in front of Sora, Matt, Tai and Yumi with their fingers intertwined.

Sora walked a bit faster and grabbed a hold of Izzy's sleeve and stood still, Izzy fell back and Mimi grabbed onto his arm to prevent him from falling, she turned to Sora and asked her briskly, "What the hell is your problem, let go of him."

Sora ignored her tone and asked sternly, "You're to come with us, we have to talk, no backing out, Tachikawa, Izumi."

Mimi and Izzy frowned, Mimi looked like she was the one in charge of the couple, "Fine, let's get this over with."

Sora smiled with relief, "Come with us to Antonio's Delight."

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

They all now sat at a round booth upstairs of Antonio's Delight, Tai wasn't stuffing his mouth. Everyone had a drink in front of them. Sora had raspberry fanta, Matt had coke, Tai had iced coffee, Yumi had orange juice, Mimi had vanilla coke and Izzy had water.

They all sensed the Soul Disk in Izzy's bag, which could only mean he received his Soul item as well.

Matt took a deep breath, "We need your help, since you two are also Soul Tamers, we need your assistance."

Mimi stared at him, "You expect us to believe that bullshit?"

Tai, Yumi, Matt and Sora all answered in unison, "Yes."

Izzy raised an eyebrow. He did believe it and he knew Mimi did as well.

Mimi backed away, "Okay…"

Matt turned to Izzy, "You love history as well, I remember you doing a project about Ancient Midgard, you are familiar with The Great War right?"

Izzy nodded, "Yeah, I love history, and I did that project in grade eight, why?"

Sora decided to answer that one, "I saw a vision of the past and the future, our ancestors are the spirits inside our Soul items, they were in the ware and sacrificed their lives in the war to save the people they loved, the vision I foresaw was Gozaburo Kaiba who was sometimes known as MaloMyotismon returning to this world, I'm gonna be corrupted by the darkness if we don't do anything, that's why we need your help, we must perform Carbuncle, ask your spirits what that is, I'm not bothered explaining."

Mimi raised an eyebrow, "and if we don't help you?"

Sora smirked evilly, her eyes glowed blood red and her pupils became cat-like silver slits, her eyes glinted eerily and she rubbed her palms together, "then… you might… let's say… prepare yourself… to be ripped up into pieces…"

Her voice was a low silky, sexy soft voice and she had FANGS!

Mimi and Izzy gulped, they nodded. Sora smiled that unnerving smile and purred like a feline, "Good…"

Yumi shook Sora slightly, "Hey, Sora, wake up."

Sora blinked and her eyes went back to normal, she looked around, "Huh, did I do something?"

Matt sighed, "It happened again, she took over."

Sora's face showed pure horror, "No… not again, this isn't good! This is the twentieth time this week!"

Mimi and Izzy were perplexed, they had no idea what just happened, only that Sora was acting sinister before.

Tai sighed, He understood everything but he wasn't about to open his mouth to speak and waste his time trying to do something he sucked at. So… he just watched his ex-girlfriend and her new boyfriend listen to Matt's explanation.

Mimi's eyes were wide, "Oh my god, Takenouchi… I must say… some of the new changes are cool but some of them are just so out of whack, I mean, Takenouchi, you sounded like some bad-ass bitch from some fantasy or horror movie."

Sora raised an eyebrow and she leaned forward, her eyes blood red with silver slits again and she purred in a low sexy, silky soft voice, "I'm very sorry… it isn't my fault I am such a… bad-ass bitch… I suggest you keep your mouth shut when around me…" Sora looked around with a smirk and leaned even further and in a hushed whisper, she hissed, "You… don't know… who might be listening to your conversation… they could be everywhere…" By now, Sora's voice was louder and heavy with a bit of anger, "My master, MaloMyotismon would be able to find me and kill all who stands in the way, I am his most beloved slave, being trapped and kept away for him for more the a century, you shall pay! You shall pay for leaving me to wander aimlessly in the dark abyss. You will pay the ultimate price for separating me from my master, me his most loyal slave."

Of course, no one replied but they all were alarmed, Sora started laughing, thin and cynical, "Are you all afraid, do be… cling to your pathetic lives, hate me, despise me…or hide… it won't be able to save you from your fate… you will all die! Perish! Be torn apart!" She stood up and raised her hands and tilted her head back, as if looking up at sky and spun around laughing like a maniac.

Everyone else in the room looked at her weirdly, Mimi was too afraid to be embarrassed, what Sora said was alarming and was sinking in fast. Yumi stood up and slapped Sora across the face to bring the real Sora back to reality.

Sora came back with a dazed look, Matt stood up and supported her, "Oh god, I'm losing it fast, keep the darkness away from me, please…"

Izzy realised that she looked so helpless and vulnerable.

Tai was shocked. He was drinking his iced coffee when it all happened. He was now choking on it, bashing his chest in an attempt to clear his throat. Mimi blinked, "I think we girls should go shopping… it will help…"

Yumi smiled gratefully at Mimi, "I think that's a GREAT idea, absolutely wonderful, let's go!"

Yumi and Mimi practically dragged Sora out of the restaurant, leaving the guys to pay for the drinks.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Yumi, Mimi walked with Sora in between them (who was being dragged) into the mall.

Sora groaned, "Ladies, I can walk just fine."

Mimi and Yumi stopped and let go of Sora who sighed in relief and stretched her arms.

Once she was done, Mimi grinned evilly, she then jumped up and started squealing happily, "SHOPPING!"

Yumi then started squealing as well while people walking passing by stared at them weirdly, Sora sweat-dropped, just great, she was stuck with two Yumis, she walked over to them and dragged them into the nearest clothes shop, Supré.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Inside, the song, All or nothing by Athena Cage was playing on full blast, the staff who were hanging the clothes up were swinging their hips to the music, a male who was moving stuff to the females who were hanging the stuff up was tapping his feet to the music, Yumi and Mimi stopped squealing and started moving their heads to the music while Sora started mouthing the words and looking through a row of black t-shirts.

Yumi and Mimi practically ran to the new stock section, Mimi took out a pink tube-top and held it to her body while Yumi inspected it, the blonde shook her head, "Too sluttish and out of fashion."

Mimi went to the mirror and looked, she cringed and went back to Yumi who was looking at a pink sleeveless shirt with 'Angel' in bluish silver sparkly cursive writing, she smiled and nodded while Yumi took it to the counter for the girl to open a changing cubicle for her.

Sora took out a loose (not baggy) black hoodie with short sleeves and the front had white paint which wrote stuff all over the front, Mimi saw this and walked over to Sora and inspected the redhead, she had to admit, Sora had good taste, she nodded her head with a smile. Sora grinned and walked over to the counter for a key, just as she was about to walk into the cubicle, Yumi walked out of hers wearing the pink shirt.

Mimi smiled, "What are you, a supermodel?"

Sora laughed, Yumi giggled, "Nope, I'm not a supermodel, I'm a singer."

Mimi made a mock gasp and put on a fake shocked face, "Maybe you should change from being a singer to a model, and don't you dare waste your body."

Yumi laughed, "Tell that to Sora, you haven't seen her bod' yet."

Sora faked a cough and walked into the cubicle while Yumi went back to change back into her uniform.

The song, My boo by Usher ft. Alicia Keys started playing, something caught Mimi's eyes, she walked over to it and took it, it was a light pink backless halter top with light pink strings crisscrossing over the back and the shirt showed her midriff, she grinned, it was nice, she took it to the counter as Yumi and Sora opened their doors, Yumi walked out while running one hand through her hair, she and Sora had the products by Supré hanging loosely on one hand, the girl at the counter with long wavy aqua hair and amethyst eyes. She was wearing a black version of the halter top Mimi chose and tight olive green hip hugger cargoes and sneakers, a name tag hung loosely on from her neck, it wrote 'Denise'. She smiled and handed the key to Mimi and walked over to Sora and Yumi and asked, "How did it go?"

Both Sora and Yumi smiled and nodded and unison they replied, "Great, we're take it."

The girl smiled, "if you're gonna do more purchasing. You could leave it at the counter for me to mind."

The girls nodded and placed it on the counter just as Mimi opened her door, she was dressed in the halter top, Yumi and Sora turned and Yumi laughed, "I am so lesbian at the moment, Izzy is so gonna get a nosebleed if he sees you wear that."

Sora and Mimi laughed while a new song started playing. It was Naughty girl by Beyonce.

Mimi smiled, "Then I better take it," she went back inside and changed back into the cubicle, Yumi turned to Sora and grinned, "Mimi is pretty cool to hang around with if you're not her enemy."

Sora nodded just as Mimi came back out, she took it to the counter and left it with the other stuff, they went to the pants section, Sora took a pair of black flares with white lines going vertically down and went to the belt section and took a white belt, the stretchy type.

Yumi and Mimi stayed at the pants section and looked through the pants, meanwhile they looked, Yumi and Mimi were deep in thought, they both decided to speak at the same time, "Umm… err… sorry, you go first."

Yumi shook her head, "No, you go first."

Mimi nodded and took a deep breath, "I'm sorry for the nasty stuff I said to you last week."

Yumi smiled genuinely, "It's KK, I have to say, it was the spirits who started kissing first but I don't know what happened afterwards, I'm sorry as well."

Mimi sighed, "I don't mind anymore, I found someone perfect, Izzy is much more responsible then Tai will ever be, I kinda feel sorry for you, you're stuck with Tai but he can be real fun to be with and a great person to talk to when you're depressed, don't hurt him and he won't hurt you… But… some of his bad habits could gross you out."

Yumi giggled, "I know, I saw, him eating is the worse."

Mimi allowed her to smirk slightly, "You haven't seen his room yet, that's much worse."

Yumi pretended to gag, while Mimi laughed and patted her back, Yumi suddenly stopped and became serious, "So, friends?"

Mimi smiled, "You bet, Yumes."

Yumi's smile widened, "Oh, a new nickname, huh, Meems?"

Mimi giggled, "Yeah."

Suddenly someone coughed behind them, they turned to see Sora standing there with a grin, "So, having fun without me now?"

Mimi and Yumi laughed, Mimi punched her arm lightly, "Sorry, carrot top."

Sora wrinkled her nose at that name before laughing, "Carrot top is way better then pink."

Mimi laughed, "Yeah right, so… how about us be friends?"

Sora shrugged, "I don't mind, how's the body? I didn't damage it too much did I?"

Mimi giggled, "Nope, I recover fast, now the only problems are the boys."

Yumi and Sora laughed and nodded, "Yeah."

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

One hundred and twenty minutes later, after more then fifty shops and now carrying many bags, the girls stood outside the mall waiting for their boyfriends to come pick them up.

Yumi turned to Mimi, "So, Meems, are you gonna go to Matt's concert?"

Mimi stared at Yumi like as if she had grown one more head, "Uhuh, Yumes, are you crazy, me miss it? I've never missed a single concert of his, we've being friends since fifth grade, he started his singing career three years ago, all of us have never missed a single concert of his."

Yumi and Sora couldn't help laugh, Sora smiled, "Alright, well… the last Soul Tamer is gonna be there too, we're gonna get he or she to join us, we'll resort to all means to recruit that person."

Mimi and Yumi laughed, Mimi pretended to wipe tears out of her eyes, "I've just made friends with the recarnation of Satan."

Sora frowned, "I am not the recarnation of Satan, I'm just the spawn of…" She trailed off, thinking of her dad.

Yumi's smile vanished. She knew Sora was very touchy around the subject of her parents.

Mimi understood the looks and decided not to press on it, she turned and smiled, "Hey, I see the guys' cars."

She saw Matt's BMW and Izzy's silver Lexus.

Sora and Yumi looked up and grinned, they waved, Matt and Izzy pulled up in front of them, Tai wasn't anywhere to be seen, Matt noticed Yumi's face, "Don't worry, you'll see him tonight, he had to go home to do something, the concert starts at six, come one hour early and help us set up, I trust you know that, Meems?"

He knew that the girls were on good terms and Mimi was one of his best friends.

Mimi nodded. Sora got into the passenger seat and pecked Matt's lip while Yumi went to the back.

Mimi hopped into Izzy's car and pecked his cheek and they all drove to their destinations.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Yumi and Sora stood outside their apartment building waiting for Matt to arrive. Chris had left earlier to pick Reese up and said that they will meet everyone else at Geffen Concert Hall.

Sora was wearing a black backless halter top with black strings crisscrossing over the back and the shirt showed her midriff which hugged her curves comfortably and black flares with white lines going vertically down and black heels which had crisscrossing for bounders. Her clothes were bought today and her hair was tied up into a high ponytail and black chopsticks crisscrossed near it. She had clear lip gloss and a thin layer of black eyeliner and a bit of blush and had a small shoulder bag hung diagonally across her chest.

Yumi was wearing dark blue shirt which didn't cover her shoulders but had sleeves and a tight coffee coloured skirt with down to just above her knees and chunky beige knee-high boots. She made her hair wavy. She wore a thin layer of eyeliner and light pink lip gloss and a bit of blush.

They saw Matt's BMW approaching them, he stopped the car and leaned towards the passenger seat and opened the door and when he saw Sora, his mouth went dry, Sora looked fantastic.

He was wearing a baggy black t-shirt with 'Teenage Wolves' written in white and faded baggy black cargoes and black Nike sneakers.

Sora laughed, "Yama, are you done staring at me? I can't get in."

Matt blushed but then he realised what she called him, he chuckled, "So… new nickname, huh?"

Sora smiled before shoving him over and getting into the car and buckling her seatbelt while Yumi went into the back and buckled her seatbelt.

Matt grumbled, "So… shoving me away and not giving me a kiss, huh?" He huffed and crossed his arms and pouted, "How mean."

Sora giggled at how cute he was and stuck her tongue out at him. He leaned towards her and was about to suck her tongue when she quickly slipped it back in, his pout went bigger. Sora smiled and couldn't resist anymore, his pout was just too cute, "Aww… gomen, Yama," she leant forward and pecked his nose, "Now drive, mister."

Matt mumbled something about ungrateful girlfriends but started the car anyways. Yumi was busy laughing her head off.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

The blondes and redhead got out of the car, after closing the roof and locked the car, they walked into the big ass building and stopped when they heard a high-pitched scream, the three of them ran and found a girl on the floor, some cardboard boxes near her feet, it looked as if it fell and had just missed her. She had long dark blue hair which were split from the side and braided into two plaits. She also had black eyes which were behind round silver rimmed glasses. She was wearing a black singlet and black three-quarter pants and sneakers.

Joe came out of the auditorium, he ran over to her and checked if she had any injuries, he sighed with relief and held her close to him, "Thank god you're alright, Bree…"

Yumi laughed, "Your twin sister?"

Before Joe had the time to answer, Tai came out, looking annoyed, he rubbed his head, "Joe, seriously, don't just drop the box of glow in the dark sticks on my head just because you heard your girl scream, Jesus, do you know how much it hurts?"

Sora, Matt and Yumi couldn't help but laugh, the others finally noticed them, Yumi walked over to Bree and helped her stand since Joe was listening to Tai lecture him.

Mimi walked out of the auditorium wearing the light pink halter top she bought earlier, she also wore a jean miniskirt and white knee-high boots. The pink dye in her hair was gone and now was replaced with her natural hair colour, brown with blonde streaks, yes, the blonde is natural as well. She had it wavy and split at the side, she wore a light pink cowboy hat on top of her head and lilac lip gloss and a thin layer of black eyeliner, she demanded to know what was going on, "People! What the hell is with the commotion? I can freaking hear it from backstage!"

Izzy walked out wearing an army t-shirt and dark grey cargoes and white Nike sneakers, he grumbled, "Meems, I can hear YOU from outside, what the hell happened? Oh god, please don't tell me, Bree knocked the box of posters over again."

Mimi turned to her boyfriend, "unfortunately, she did, the stuff is all over the floor again! It's gonna take forever to pick them all up again!" She sighed in exasperation. She was clearly in a bad mood.

Bree stuttered timidly, "I-I'm s-sorry… I-I d-didn't m-mean to…"

Mimi smacked her forehead, "For goodness sake, Bree, be braver, I'm sick of you stuttering all the time! You're just like Joe! It's bloody annoying!"

Her tolerance had collapsed and now Izzy was trying to calm her down, Bree burst into tears and Joe tried to comfort her, Sora rolled her eyes.

"BREE WARREN! FUCKING STOP CRYING! IT AIN'T THE END OF THE FUCKING WORLD!"

There was silence, whoever it was who just bellowed so loudly was super effective, Bree stopped crying. A familiar blue hair guy walked out of the auditorium, he had dark blue hair which had a black NY cap over it and silver eyes which were now slate grey from anger, he was wearing a tight red muscle shirt underneath a grey coat and baggy olive green cargoes and dark blue sneakers.

He was holding two microphones which looked like they were about to break from his grip.

Mimi sighed in relief, "Oh my god, Brett, you're a lifesaver!"

Brett was too pissed to be smug at the moment, he started barking orders, "C'mon people, stop crowding over a small incident, Joe, get the box of glow in the dark sticks up onto the ramp. Tai, take these microphones and put them on their holders on the stage. Bree, pick the boxes back and stuff back up. Meems, you're supposed to be hanging the banners. Izzy, you're supposed to be turning on the TVs and Matt, I need to talk to you about the song arrangements, c'mon people, get to work, we only have forty-five minutes before the show begins! Maybe you guys should be more like Chris, Reese, TK, Kari, Kei, Kage, Kai and Kyou, they're doing the proper thing!"

Everyone went back to work while Sora and Yumi just stood there, they both turned to each other with wide eyes and asked each other in unison, "Who's he?"

"Brett Warren, the new manager for Teenage Wolves, has quite a big mouth, huh?"

It was Chris. He was holding a table while Reese stood next to him with two chairs in her hands. Chris was wearing a baggy olive green t-shirt which had 'I'm all yours' in white writing and baggy faded black jeans and black and white sneakers. Reese was wearing a black summer dress over a pair of blue three-quarter jeans and black sandals.

Sora scratched his head, "Haven't I seen that hat and jacket before?"

Yumi snorted, "Loads of people have that cap, you and Chris have one."

Sora shook her head, "That's not what I mean, I meant, I think I saw that guy the night Chris got his tattoo, when I was talking to Matt… That guy said something about his cat being sick… I might ask him later…"

Chris and Reese both kept their mouths shut, they were well aware of who that guy was. All of them walked into the auditorium.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Everyone sighed with relief. The preparations were done but now, the hard part, performing.

Matt and Kyou hung their electric guitars around their neck while Kage ran to the drums and Kei and Kai ran behind the microphone stands, the band was wearing the same thing, the black 'Teenage Wolves' t-shirt and faded black jeans.

Yumi and Sora frowned, not knowing where to sit, suddenly, Chris tugged at their hands, they turned.

He grinned, "C'mon, we're gonna go to our seats."

Yumi's frown deepened, "And where is that?"

It was Tai who answered that, "The metal railing above us."

Sora sweatdropped, "Err… is that thing safe? I don't wanna hear Yumi complaining about it collapsing…"

With a frown, Yumi yelled at her cousin, "SORA!"

Sora laughed and patted the fuming blonde's head, "Sorry, Yumes, well, looking at the structure, it's safe."

Yumi stared at Sora, "What are you, a builder?"

Sora turned to her cousin, "It's logic, it was built to support people, now let's go."

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Yumi screamed when the metal underneath her creaked, "Sora! You said it's safe."

Tai turned to his girlfriend, "Yumi, you're not even on the walkway yet, you're on Izzy's laptop."

Yumi blinked, "Eh?" She looked down and found out he was quite right, she wasn't even on the board yet, she was standing on Izzy's laptop while Izzy looked like he was about to open it.

A vein in Izzy's temple threatened to pop, he growled, "Get off, the walkway is over there."

Yumi blushed crimson, "Sorry…"

They all left Mimi and Izzy who were on the floor, they walked to the metal walkway and Yumi froze.

Chris rolled his eyes, he walked onto the walkway and jumped on it a few times, "See?"

Yumi nodded and took a hesitant step on top of the walkway. Sora rolled her eyes and pushed Yumi's back, Yumi stumbled and screamed but Chris caught her.

Chris rolled his eyes, "Yumi, even if this collapses, you won't die, remember, you're strong, remember who you are and what is protecting you."

Yumi nodded, all fear gone, she almost forgot about the barrier Sora casted on her when they were children, as long as the caster was alive, Yumi won't die that easily.

Sora leaned over the railings and called to Matt, "Hey Yama! You won't get squished if this collapses, right?"

The performers looked up and nodded, well, not Kage, he decided to crack a joke.

Kage called back up, "What're ye gettin' at?"

Sora grinned, "Yumi's afraid that people will die if this walkway collapses!"

Kage laughed, "Don't worry! Yumi, ye got Tai to save ye!"

Brett walked into the auditorium from the double doors, "People, quiet, the audience is coming in soon, Izzy, get the metal wall down and the lights off!"

Izzy nodded and did something in his laptop and a metal wall descended in front of them, blocking their view of the door and turned off the lights.

Mostly everyone who was on the walkway sat down, the girls who wore skirts hanged their legs, Sora and Chris chose to stand with themselves leaning on the railings. Joe handed a couple of glow in the dark sticks to everyone, "Chuck these out when Matt sings Burn."

Sora was curious at why Matt wanted to sing Burn, she didn't even know that song was about, during all of the band practices, Matt never practiced it

Tai and TK were in charge of the lights. Mimi and Yumi were in charge of the female bits if there were any. There was also food for them to eat if they were hungry.

A moment later, they heard the double doors being opened and people filing in, judging from the voices, most of them were females from the screaming.

Everyone rolled their eyes.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Underneath, Teenage Wolves were already sweating slightly, the metal wall started lifting up, everyone was staring at them. Matt sighed before grinning at the audience, "Hey everyone! Welcome to your first concert for this year! Hope you'll enjoy yourselves!"

There were squeals from girls.

Matt smiled before looking at Kage who gave him a wink, the blue eyed teen started a few beats before it got faster and Matt started singing.

(Any song Matt sings doesn't belong to me. Let's just pretend that Matt composed them, please!)

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Sora smiled at her boyfriend's voice, this was a fast song. However, she was frowning at the fan girls. They were holding signs which wrote about their undying love for Matt. She was tempted to chuck the glow in the dark stick in her hand at the crowd now.

Chris placed a hand on his sister's shoulder, she turned to him and saw his smile, she frowned, "What?"

Chris grinned, "Matt will never choose any of the artificial sluts out there, they can't match your beauty. You're the one for Matt, no one else, and I bet Matt would always want the natural, which he has, besides, to me, you're the second most beautiful girl in the world."

Sora laughed, "You just had to wreck it with that stupid ending!"

Chris pouted, "Reese will always be first."

Sora laughed, she loved her brother a lot, she leant over and pinched his cheek, "I lub you, bro."

Chris grinned, he hasn't heard that from her for years, "I love you too, Saucer."

Sora frowned, "Don't call me that, Toffee." (Toffee is from Chris(topher).)

Chris grinned, "So, back to childhood nicknames?"

Sora nodded with a smile and hugged her brother before turning back to the concert, this time ignoring the screaming fan girls.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

The song ended and Matt took a deep breath before grinning, the crowd had being screaming, "I love you, Matt," over and over again, he knew that he didn't desire any of them, the girl he desired was above him, smiling happily.

He grinned before speaking, "The next song is called She's no you, I dedicate it to my girlfriend, Sora, enjoy it!"

He and Kyou started drumming their cords before Matt started singing with a grin.

Even though the song wasn't for them, the fan girls were saying it was a lie and that the song was for them.

Sora was smiling, she listened to his voice and the words, he meant it, his voice was full of passion. She ignored the irritating fan girls and mouthed the words along with the singing blonde.

Yumi and Chris were smiling, they knew that they were indebted to Matt, the blonde was bringing the old Sora back, the happy smiling Sora who they thought had being lost six years ago, even when Sora was with Kiseki, she wasn't completely happy, Matt accomplished something Kiseki could never accomplish.

Matt continued singing, putting all his feelings into this song, he had spent days composing this song, he had stayed up late doing it, Kai, Kei, Kyou and Kage were grinning since their hard work was paying off.

(Queue in Lyrics)

The song ended with Matt breathing, "She's no you…"

The crowd went crazy, the girls started squealing and screaming insanely. There was no blush on Matt's face. Sora was the only one who had ever made him blush, well at least any topic about her.

Once the fans calmed down, Matt started speaking, "How'd you like it?"

The question was really directed to Sora, even through the screams from the fans, he heard Sora's answer, it was a quiet murmur, "I loved it, Yama…"

Matt waited for the crowd to calm down before continuing talking, "Well, since you loved it, I got another song, it's dedicated to my beautiful girlfriend as well, Sora, how about coming down?"

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Sora was shocked but laughed anyways before jumping down from the walkway and startling the crowd because of the jump, she waved the crowd while Matt circled his arms protectively around her slim waist, "Hi, everyone."

She felt the hungry stares from the guys in the crowd and the glares from the fan girls.

Matt ignored the stares and glares, well, not the stares completely but he tried, "This is Sora, my beautiful girlfriend, I dedicate the next song to her, it's called, For you I will, enjoy!"

Kyou started drumming the cords on his electric guitar, soon, Kage joined him with the beats, Matt started singing with Sora in his arms, "When you're feeling lost in the night."

Sora smiled while leaning into Matt's loving embrace, Matt wasn't playing his guitar, he had taken it off to hold Sora, Brett had thought it was a great idea to call Sora down.

Matt didn't feel shy at all, with Sora in his arms, he felt confidence, Sora gave him strength and confidence, he tightened his grip on her, not so she can't breathe but to hold her closer against him while he sung with confidence.

Seen the leading singer's confidence, Kei, Kyou, Kage and Kai felt it rub off on them, they had no doubt, they were gonna pull this song off.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Brett watched from backstage, he was grinning like an idiot, the show was perfect so far, the crowd didn't seem bothered with Sora anymore, they were cheering just as much as before, maybe even more then before.

He recalled the conversation at yesterday's band practice.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

"Brett, I got a proposition," The band was having a two minute break from practising. Sora had gone to the toilet with Yumi. Matt and his newly hired band manager were standing in the middle of nowhere talking about the concert.

Brett was intrigued, he was always so impressed with Matt's ideas, "Do share with me."

Matt grinned, "My pleasure. You see, even though the fan girls know that I'm dating Sora, they won't back off so I decided that maybe it might be a good idea if I was to sing a song with Sora in my arms, I think the song should be For You I will, how about it?"

Brett couldn't help but grinned, "I wouldn't have being able to come up with a better idea, I'm impressed, you love her a lot, and I know you know it, I was there when you first kissed her."

Matt was shocked, "You were the one who made Sora fall on me!"

Brett shook his head, "No, that wasn't me, I was only helping that guy get you together with Sora, anyways, the idea is perfect, will you sing Burn tomorrow?"

Matt nodded, "Yeah, I wanna tell her how I feel but I don't know how to begin, I need some advice."

Brett shot him a mischievous smirk, "I'm not helping you on that one, you have to figure it out yourself, she's coming back -Say Matt, you have to practise extra hard on I Turn Around, don't you reckon, Sora?"

Sora laughed, "Not exactly, he did compose it three years ago."

Yumi smiled, even though Sora had the power of Premonition, she knew Matt was gonna tell Sora how he felt, even though it was a bit early, but then… who gives!

Reese poked Yumi gently on the arm, "Isn't Matt a sweetheart?"

Yumi nodded before looking down, "I reckon Sora is giving the band confidence, ever since she went down there, the guys don't look nervous, especially Matt, his back is straight and his voice is confident."

Chris laughed, "Just don't get on his bad side, he's a deadly enemy."

They all shared a laugh.

The song ended with Matt breathing, "For you, I will…"

The crowd went wild once more! Sora started laughing slightly at what she saw in the front row, there was a guy holding a sign saying, 'I love you, Mattie."

Matt took a deep breath before speaking, "Did you enjoy that, Sora?"

Sora smiled, "Yeah, I did, hell would go crazy if I didn't."

Everyone in the auditorium except for two people laughed.

Matt grinned boyishly, "Glad you did, well, did YOU GUYS enjoy it?" He was referring to the crowd this time.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

The crowd went wild, a man with spiky brown hair and glazy blue eyes looked menacing, the girl next to him had bushy maroon hair and glazy eyes as well, she turned to him and they both shot an evil smirk at each other before getting out of the crowd and outside.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

The Soul Tamers, Bree, Brett and Reese noticed a disturbance in the atmosphere suddenly, it was unnerving but the concert must go on.

Sora had left the stage as soon as the song was over.

Matt took a shuddering breath since the dreading feeling was so strong. He then managed a dazzling grin, "The next song is a song I composed back in junior high, it was the first song I ever performed, it's called I Turn Around, enjoy!"

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Outside, the two glazy eye people were standing before the backstage door, they were wearing black robes, they linked hands and focused their energy, they both spoke in a flat voice in unison, "Let's do this."

Matt's singing could be heard faintly.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Sora was now backstage but she wasn't paying attention to the concert anymore, nor was she going back up to the walkway, she edged towards the backstage door while Matt sung in the background.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Yumi looked around, she turned to Chris, "Where's Sora, she should be here already, I saw her go backstage."

Reese looked down and gasped, "There she is! She's at the backstage door, I sense two evil presence there, c'mon, we better help her," she grabbed Chris and Yumi's hands and dragged them to Sora.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Matt grinned at the crowd, "The next song is called Without You, it is also dedicated to Sora, hope everyone would enjoy it."

He was trying his best to ignore that dreading feeling, he started singing.

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Sora wrenched the door open and what she saw shocked her with disgust and hatred, she narrowed her eyes, "You!"

The man chuckled evilly, "It's being a while, Marissa."

Sora frowned, "What the hell was that suppose to mean, Akiyama"

The girl beside him laughed cynically, it was Jun, "How stupid can you be, Marissa? The two pathetic fools who used to possess these bodies have being disposed of already, their minds were so weak they couldn't even put up a chance, Weregarurumon was even better then these fools, it's being five days, your pathetic lover boy had such a weak mind, to think he had a Soul Item, your real self is Marissa."

Sora gasped, "MaloMyotismon!"

Reese, Yumi and Chris ran over to her, Yumi froze, "Ryo…"

Reese shook her head, "No, the bodies are already dead, I feel no life from it, I feel something else, something sinister…"

Sora closed her eyes and took a shuddering breath, "It's him, MaloMyotismon."

Chris' eyes widened, "You mean…" He trailed off, the energy coming from the both of them were inhuman.

Yumi glared at Ryo, "I see, you just gave us an advantage, MaloMyotismon, you took the form of the two people I despise so much, I won't show any mercy."

Reese grabbed a hold onto Yumi's wrist, "Don't do anything risky."

Ryo and Jun laughed cynically and they both spoke in unison, in the same flat voice, "Oh… but she doesn't have a chance, you must fight or you will die as a coward, do you understand, Arisa?"

Reese glared at the two, "Don't call me Arisa."

They both laughed cynically before a black wind started blowing from the two, "Howling Darkness!"

°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸

Matt was singing with his eyes closed, "I don't wanna b-"

He was cut off by a crash from behind them, the band stopped performing and whipped their heads to backstage.

No one was cheering anymore, there was deadly silence.

There was a smash again this time. This time, it was Chris smashing against the beams that were supporting the walkway, everyone quickly got off it.

The band quickly threw their guitars and drumsticks aside and ran out of harm's way, the metal boards fell down and smashed in the instruments just as Chris shoved himself out of the way and smashed his arm onto the floor.

Suddenly, Yumi, Sora and Reese came dashing out of the backstage area.

Jun and Ryo followed up, a glowing red ribbon was attached from Jun's hand while Ryo's hands were glowing black.

Sora looked at the crowd, as if searching before she locked eyes with Ryu, he did the slightest nod before raising his hand to stop time. Time froze for everyone who had no magical abilities.

Matt grabbed a broken piece of the beam which supported the walkway and threw it at Ryo's head, "Hey you! You fucked up my concert! You're gonna pay, you stinkin' son of a bitch!"

(LOL! I got that from the concert where the Digimon ruins his performance in season two.)

Ryo hissed, "Shut up, Amber! Howling Darkness!"

Kari, TK and Yumi ran at the darkness, Yumi glowed white, TK glowed gold and Kari glowed pink, not because of the Soul Items but their own powers.

Yumi's power exploded and she screamed, "Trinity Limit!"

Kari on the other hand screamed, "Celestial Arrow!"

And TK yelled, "Gate of Destiny!"

A white magic circle appeared under Yumi, she was in the centre, she exploded in a blinding white light, consuming Ryo and Jun.

Pink markings covered Kari, glowing through her clothing, she used her left hand and brought it down, a pink bow appeared out of nowhere, it was just a glowing pink line, using her right hand, she brought it in front of the bow and pulled it back, a pink arrow appeared out of nowhere, she shot it and it let loose, destroying everything in its path, hitting the floor between the evil villains.

TK's eyes glowed gold and a door appeared in front of him, it was round and it rotated a few times before opening, it was pitch dark and began sucking Ryo and Jun into it.

Yumi was a bit sad, she was destroying the body of her first love. She watched Jun and Ryo fly towards the warp, Yumi couldn't watch, she closed her eyes and screamed.

"AHHH!"
