"Welcome all to Odaiba's High 25th Anniversary Festival!" The voice said through the speakers.
Cheerful laughter and happy faces filled the wonderful festivity. In the middle of the festival ground was a large stage, nicely decorated by the students for the Odaiba's High Annual Karaoke Contest. The long line of contestant was visible from the entrance of the school, and in the front line stood a girl with too much make-up Sora was afraid her face could fall off.
"Name?" Sora asks, the girl squealed and gave her name and as Sora continued, "You may move one backstage to practice and you're our no.114 contestant." She said repeating the same line for about 114 times now, and still going.
Sora felt humiliated, there she was in a red kimono with a pair of stupid fluffy bunny ears and tail! Sora cursed as she continued her work. But well at least I get to enjoy watching or better still witnessing my arch rival's life be shattered in a few moment. Sora smiled wickedly.
Yamato stood at the school entrance. "Oh chicks… soo much chicks…" Matt said as he eyed the hot babes walking pass him giving him their most seductive glances as he walks by.
Then the long awaited moment happened.
"Yamato!" Miss Fushikawa called out to him, Matt turned around. To him it was a nightmare. Everything moved in slow-mo as Miss Fushikawa ran towards him. Her voice sounded like those hideous powdered faced soprano at the opera.
Miss Fushikawa gave him a big hug. Squeezing the air out of him like a balloon. From the counter Sora watched in mischief as her rival fell into her trap. She felt like laughing out loud but only managed to do it mentally as she didn't want to lose her cool in the public.
"Miss Fushikawa!??" Matt stammered. "But what are you…?"
"Don't worry Yamato. Sora told everything to me, and I'm glad she did, 'coz today we're going to have fun Fun FUN!!" Miss Fushikawa said happily as she dragged Yamato away.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Now presenting to you Odaiba's High 25th Anniversary's Festival main event!! The Cherry Blossom Karaoke Contest!" Sora yelled on the microphone as she passed Matt a winning glance.
'SORAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' His mind yelled in the most excruciating voice as he is being dragged by this monster teacher. 'Sora I'm gonna get you! You bitch!' Matt said determined.

An Hour And Half Later
@}{@}{@}{@}{@}{@
A bored expression filled Sora's face as the 239 contestant was being called up to sing. The audiences was static during the whole song, some had even fall asleep.
"And next is the ever beautiful…" Sora continued to ramble on as the next contestant began to sing horribly.
Some of the audiences threw bubble gum and drinks at the contestant, but other was left static.
In the crowd Sora saw Yamato in the crowd, crawling between their legs obviously trying to hide from Miss Agony. Then he disappeared into the crowd as she saw Miss Fushikawa passed by.
"And now for our next contestant," Sora reads the piece of paper that the contestant gave her earlier to best describe her stunning self she mocked in a girly voice, "I present to you the sexy and sizzling hot! Miss…"
Yamato appeared from behind the curtain, looking stunned at the large crowd in front of him. 'How the hell did I always managed to get myself into more trouble,' Matt said to himself as he walked up the stage trying to play along.
"Miss Yamato Ishida!!?" Sora almost shrieked as he saw Matt on the stage, "I mean… Mr. Yamato Ishida!!" Sora said trying to sound I'm-in-control. Sora walks up to Matt and whispered to him, "What are you doing here Baka!?!" She asked sternly.
"How should I know!? Bitch!!" Matt replied
"What song are you singing?!" Sora asks him.
"I'm not singing!!" Yamato argued.
"Yes you are!" Sora said shoving the mic into his hand and kicking him on the back before moving back to the side of the stage calmly. The audiences started to roar, the girls mostly. Then Sora announced.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Yamato Ishida with a surprise song!!" Sora said as she moved behind the curtains.
"Hello…" Matt looked around to see an electric guitar lying on the stage.
"Hey!! Entertain us JERK!!" a guy yelled from the audience receiving glares from the girls,.
"SHUT UP ASSHOLE!!" Matt shouted.
"What?!" The guy shrugged
Matt lifted the guitar and put the lash over his head. Matt began to strum the guitar but it sounded sour. He never played a guitar before let alone touch one and here he was, about to embarrass himself in front of the whole school. 'Oh well if I'm going down I'm gonna do it in style!' Matt planted in his mind. And with a sly wink to the audience, he started to strum on his guitar.
The guitar shrieked and the crowd roared.
"Aww fuck just look at me!"
oO0OooO0OooO0Oo
I'm dirt bag a loser
My ass got kicked by the football team leader
I read literature, poetry and Shakespeare!
Girls hate me
But I crave 'em
One pick up line and kick on *toot* is all I've got
And BANG!!!
(One blow to head)
BANG!
(One whack on my head)
BANG!
(One crack on brain)
I've switched.
Hehey!!
No it's not a pack with the devil
Not some miracle
Not multiple personalities….
It's just a SWITCH
Now…
Babes love me
Guys Freak me
Got my teacher tailing up behind me!
Some Bitch hates me
God… Baka I've switched.
And BANG!!!
(One blow to head)
BANG!
(One whack on my head)
BANG!
(One crack on brain)
I've switched.
oO0OooO0OooO0Oo
The crowd sang along with him. Sora mouth dropped to the ground, 'That baka got voice,' Sora said a little impressed by him. The song continued.
oO0OooO0OooO0Oo
From a nerd to a hommies
Outcast to a King
Rainy days to summer rays
Come tell me
Is the truth worth it?
Or let the fantasy play its way
And BANG!!!
(One blow to head)
BANG!
(One whack on my head)
BANG!
(One crack on brain)
I've switched.
Currently confused
Utterly felt used
This life is taking over me
Making me
Just wanna be me…
oO0OooO0OooO0Oo
(Author's Notes: Please ignore that song… I came up with in 15 minutes. It's stupid!! And it doesn't even rhyme)
The song ended with a beautiful guitar maneuver. The crowd applauds, whistling, admiring the blond boy. Miss Fushikawa jumped up and down waving at the boy while the girls in the crowd sorta went into hysteria.
Matt walked pass Sora and whispered to her, "That bitch in my song was you. By the way nice outfit."
Sora took over the stage, smiling forcefully to the audience through gritted teeth. "Now we move on to our next contestant…" She said sweetly and as kawaii as possible, much to the crowd's disappointment.
Backstage Matt was pretending to be a lamp in an attempt to escape Miss Fushikawa when he felt someone taping on his shoulder.
"Mr. Yamato Ishida?" A middle aged man inquired.
"Click… click this lamp is out of service," Matt said trying to sound like a talking lamp.
The man pulled the ridiculous ornament off of Matt's head.
"Hi," The man said raising his eyebrow.
"Who?" Matt ask looking at the man.
"I'm Mr. Arai from Universal Music," The man introduced.
"Thank god! I thought my teacher sent you to get me!" Matt said sighing in relief.
"I see…" He said motioning to the lamp ornament, "Mr. Ishida…"
"Matt just call me Matt," Matt said.
"Ok Matt, I would want to know your feedback if I'll say to you right now that you're going to be star," He said, much to his relief he just laughed, "Listen old man, you've got the wrong man, I can't sing! I don't even know how to play that damned guitar! What I did back there was just shit!" Yamato explained.
"Well I think your shit is good, and it's gonna bring you fame and fortune Mr. Ishida." Mr. Arai said, "And besides If you can't play any instrument we already have a four-piece band who'll gladly take you as their vocalist."
"No… Thank you!" Matt said as he started to leave.
"Here's my card. Give me a ring if you suddenly feel a change of heart." Mr. Arai said as he shoved the card into Matt's hand.
"Fine… like I told you before I can't sing. So don't hope for me to call you anytime soon." Matt said as he scurried away trying to find another hiding place from Miss Fushikawa.
