The students sat in their homerooms, laughing and talking with one another when the sudden loud hiss of the P.A. speaker filled the air and everyone looked up as a voice erupted from the speaker, "Will Sabro Sobnock, Shax Lied, Jazz Andro and Iruma Suzuki please report to the principal's office. That is all," the four bandmates looked at each other in confusion as all eyes focused on them before they stood up and walked out of the classroom.
Walking down the hall, Shax sighed and shook his head, "Damnit…hey Iruma, why in the hell is the principal calling us to his office? We didn't do anything wrong, and he knew we had a concert the other night,"
"I don't know, Shax," Iruma shook his head, "Grandpa said he enjoyed the concert and he had Opera record the whole thing in HD, and he wasn't angry when I got in late…so I have no idea why grandpa is calling us to his office,"
"Maybe," Sabro hummed, rubbing his chin, "Someone figured out that you're Izama and now we have to get the hell out of here before the whole school turns into a mob pit,"
"Don't even joke like that, Sabro," Iruma warned his drummer with narrowed eyes, "You know I take care when we're performing. I spray my hair with a slight purple sheen, I tie it back, I put my contacts in and then I put on a little eyeliner and eyeshadow and if I'm feeling daring, I put some nail polish on, too. No one outside of the four of us, your families, grandpa, Opera, our manager and our driver know I'm Izama,"
"Still," the black-haired bandmate sighed and rubbed the back of his head, "The last time the principal called all four of us to his office, we almost got into some serious trouble for something we didn't even do, and we were lucky one of the teachers saw what really happened that day,"
"Yeah, we know, Jazz," Iruma shook his head as they continued to walk down the hall, "Grandpa ended up apologizing to me for the rest of the day," the others hummed and nodded before the walk down the hall fell into an eerie silence.

Entering the office, the four looked around and spotted four families standing in the middle of the office before walking past them and they looked at the old man behind the desk and Iruma frowned, "Hey…grandpa…the four of us didn't do anything…why are we here?" the lead singer of the Demon Kings looked back at the families before turning back around, "And who are they?"
"Grandpa?" the man with short green hair spoke as the four bandmates looked back as the man crossed his arms, "You're a little rude, aren't you kid?"
Confused, Iruma shook his head and narrowed his eye, "No…he's my grandpa, so…I'm not rude…but seriously, who in the hell are these people, grandpa?"
"These are new trial transfer students, try saying that five times fast," Sullivan laughed and shook his head before he stood up and gestured to the young woman with long red hair, "This is Ameri Azazel, and Sabro, I would like you to show her around,
the tall blond grunted as he stepped toward Ameri and Sullivan then gestured to a tall, beautiful blonde young woman, "This is Elizabetta Ix and Jazz, if you will be so kind, I would like you to show her the school,"
Iruma narrowed his eyes as he watched his bandmate nod and walk over to Elizabetta, "Next we have Kerori Crocell," Sullivan introduced the young woman with light blue hair, "And Shax, I'd like you to be her guide while she's here,"
"Sure, no problem," Shax said before walking over to Kerori.
"And lastly we have Clara Valac," Sullivan gestured to the young woman with lime green hair, "And you will be her guide, grandson," Iruma narrowed his eyes and nodded before he stepped towards Clara and stood next to her, "Now that your daughters each have a guide, we can-"
"Hey grandpa?"
"Yes, my precious nugget of a grandson?"
Iruma groaned as he cupped a hand over his eyes as all eyes locked on him, "I want to die right now…why do you call me that?" Sullivan slightly smiled as he shrugged his shoulders, "Anyways…what's a trial transfer student?"
"They'll be here for a short while, and if they don't like it here, they'll simply transfer back to their old school,"
"Right…and why call on us? You could've called anyone else, so why-"
"They requested that they choose their own guides and after showing them a yearbook, they've picked you four out," the four members of the Demon Kings stared at the old man with wide eyes, "Now that everything is in order, you should start heading to your next classes," before anyone could say anything, the sound of the bell echoed throughout the hall and the two bands walked out of the office and down the hall.

The eight rounded the corner before the Demon Kings stopped and the Devi Dolls looked at them in confusion before Elizabetta spoke, "Is something wrong? You four are supposed to be showing us around an-"
"Why, out of everyone in this school, would you ask us to be your guides?" Jazz looked over his shoulder with narrowed eyes, "There are plenty of students that would be more than happy to show you four around, so why us? Why would the principal even let transfer students pick their own damned guides like this?"
"We just wanted someone to show us around is all," Kerori answer innocently, "If you don't want to do this, we could go back to the principal and have him sort this out, but you four already agreed to show us around, and it wouldn't be a good idea to bother the principal again,"
The four glared at her before Shax looked at Iruma and whispered, "He's your grandfather, Iruma and you're our leader, what do we do?"
Inhaling slowly, the blue-haired young man shook his head, "While you're right, it'll look bad on everyone if we go back and tell grandpa that you four changed your minds and that we no longer want us to be your guides, grandpa is actually a pretty understanding guy…but we're not going back, so get used to us, because you four are stuck with us,"
The air between the two bands grew still before Iruma sighed and hook his head, "Let's go, Valac, we've got history together,"
"Right behind you, Iruma-kins,"
"Iruma-kins…what the hell…never mind…let's just go," the remaining six watched as the two walked down the hall.
Shax and Jazz looked at Elizabetta and Kerori and Jazz smirked as he rubbed the back of his head, "We better get going too. The four of us have social studies," Kerori and Elizabetta glared at their chosen guides before they nodded and the four of them turned and walked in the opposite direction of Clara and Iruma.
Ameri crossed her arms and glared at Sabro with narrowed eyes, "And where are we supposed to be heading, Sobnock?"
"We've got science, Azazel, now let's go,"
"You're lucky I promised my parents I'll keep my grades up otherwise I'd kick your ass for even thinking about talking to me like that," Sabro simply shrugged his shoulders before the two of them walked down the hall in silence.

Hours passed and the students sat in the cafeteria, eating lunch and talking with one another. Kerori, Ameri, Elizabetta and Clara sat several tables away from Iruma, Jazz, Shax and Sabro and the four glared at them as Sabro hit the surface of the table with two pencils, "So…three of the four Demon Kings go to this school and the seem really friendly with Suzuki," Kerori took a bite of her lunch, "Is it possible he's Izama?"
"No, Iruma-kins can't be Izama," everyone looked at Clara as she shook her head, "Iruma-kins is too nice to be Izama. Izama looks like he's mean and doesn't care about anyone,"
"And you know that people can fake a personality while they're performing, Clara, I mean look at us," Ameri shook her head, "I'm a strict enforcer, following every rule imaginable, but when I'm Mononoke, I'm fun-loving, carefree and won't acknowledge any rules. Kerori is cold and distant, but as Kuromu, she kindhearted and will show all kinds of emotions. Elizabetta is more fun-loving than anything, but when she's Nee-San, she flirtatious, almost to the point where you'll think she's a Mistress of Seduction, and you are carefree and childlike, but once you're on stage as Kari, you get serious about the music and will surprise everyone around you with the way you play,"
"The point is," Kerori sighed and looked back at the four, "We've got at least three members of the Demon Kings here and we need to keep an eye on Suzuki to see that he's…getting up. Why is he getting up and walking away?" the other members of the Devi Dolls looked back to see Iruma walking away from the table with his phone in his hand before they stood up and walked over to the table.
Jazz, Shax and Sabro looked at the four in confusion before Shax shook his head, "Uh…what are you four doing here? We thought you said you wanted to spend lunch with each other,"
"Where did Iruma-kins go?" Clara demanded and the three looked at her, "He was here and now he's gone. Where did he go?"
"Oh him," Jazz smirked and crossed his arms, "He got a call. Thinking it might be his grandfather or their butler, he left to take it,"
"They have a butler?" Elizabetta asked and three nodded, "How?"
"They heard the guy to help keep their place clean…he's an amazing cook and can play video games like a champ," Shax laughed, "He's caring about Iruma, not as much as the principal is though, but that's to be expected since-"
"Since he's the principal's grandson, right," Ameri took a deep breath before looking towards the far corner of the cafeteria to see Iruma talking on his phone and she narrowed her eyes at him, "So…what's going on between you four anyways? No one seems to want to get close to you four and if I had to venture a guess, it's because of Sobnock's size intimidates everyone," the four stared at her and Ameri arched a brow in confusion, "What?"
Before they could answer, Iruma walked back to the table with a wide grin crossing his face. His bandmates looked up in confusion and Jazz arched a brow, "What's up, Iruma? Who was on the phone?"
"You guys aren-" he looked at the four and frowned as he shook his head, "Do you four mind? I need to talk to my friends in private?" Kerori, Ameri, Clara and Elizabetta hummed in unison before they stood up, turned and walked back to their table.
Seeing the four sit down, Iruma sat down and looked at his friends and smirked, "I just got off the phone with Oswell and he set up a interview with us with Spin City tonight at seven,"
"Spin City," Shax stared at him with wide eyes and Iruma nodded, "That's one of the biggest and oldest record companies out there, how did he manage to get us an interview?"
"You know Oswell always looks out for us and gets us what we need," Iruma shook his head, "Anyway, there's a catch," the three groaned as Iruma took a deep breath, "Again, you know Oswell, as much as he looks out for us, there's always going to be a catch with him, and this one is going to be tricky. Spin City only has room for one record signing this year and it's going to be between the Demon Kings and the Devi Dolls," the air between the four grew still as Iruma inhaled slowly, "I don't know if both bands are going to be there, Oswell didn't know either, so I'm going to go as Izama just to be safe, and I am begging you three to at least consider changing your appearance."
"So what…makeup?" Jazz arched a brow.
"Just a little bit of eyeliner or whatever…but please do something…if the Devi Dolls are there and they see what you three actually look like, it could be hell,"
The three stared at him before Jazz sighed and crossed his arms, "Normally we'd tell you not to worry about it, and for all we know the Devi Dolls already know about us, so we don't think it'll help any if we did do any of that…so…sorry Iruma, but it's not happening,"
Iruma took a deep breath, "I tried, can't say that I didn't," Shax, Jazz and Sabro nodded.
Ameri, Clara and Elizabetta looked at Kerori as she held her phone and narrowed her eyes, "Raim got us an interview at Spin City tonight at seven," the three smiled widely before Kerori continued, "The only drawback is the Demon Kings are going to be there and they only have room for one signing this years,"
The air between the four grew silent before Ameri took a deep breath and sat back, "At least we'll be able to find out if Suzuki is the mysterious Izama or not," the others nodded in agreement before the four of them continued to eat their lunch in silence.
Well…I wanted them to meet in a different way…Demon Kings and Devi Dolls…like at an open concert or something, but this idea came to me at the last second. Enjoy.
