Ah here's the next chapter. Also I'm sorry to say but as soon as I finish
all my Yugioh stories I'll be leaving the Yugioh section and moving to the
Beyblade section. The Yugioh section has gotten a little too crowd for my
liking.
Chapter 9
Band Concert Part 2
~~The next Day~~ After School~~
Hoshi stood outside of the band room. She didn't want to admit it but she was nervous. Partly because she was playing for someone she really didn't know, except the fact that she was a teacher here at the school, the band teacher to be correct. The other part was because she was playing with Yami. Though Yami would have told her that she was a better player than him she wouldn't believe it. In fact she was worried that she would, one mess up, two they'll be disappointed that she wasn't what they were looking for or three she would lose it. "Hoshi, why are you just standing here? Is something wrong," said a voice behind her. She turned around frightened by the voice. Yami was standing there, his hands tucked in his pockets.
Hoshi looked at him, "It's nothing really. I was just thinking."
"Scared?"
"Partly."
"Don't worry about it. You played it perfectly yesterday. You should have no problem playing today," said Yami.
"Arigato Yami," replied Hoshi.
Yami smiled. "Let's go inside huh."
Hoshi smiled back and nodded, "Sure."
They walked inside. There was Ms. Nero waiting for them. "Ok let's here your music."
Hoshi nodded and put down her cases. "Which one would you like for me to do first?"
"Sweet Innocent," said Ms. Nero.
"Ok," said Hoshi. She took out her flute. Soon she was playing the sweet melody. She melted into a world were her every dream came true. She forgot that Ms. Nero was watching. She forgot that Yami was right beside her. She forgot about the nightmares and dreams. She forgot everything round her and only thought of pleasant memories and feelings.
Yami listened to the soothing melody. Everything just seemed to disappear. All his troubles and worries vanish. His playing as nothing compared to Hoshi. If she was this good she should have joined the band a long time ago. The reason why? He didn't know. But soon even this thought disappeared with the rest. He couldn't help but feel rested here. It sounded so familiar to him. Then it hit him. This was the same melody that Hoshi was playing outside of the library the first day of the book report and the start of their new friendship.
Ms. Nero on the other hand sat there. She was grinning. If you haven't already guessed she was happy that she founded a replacement for me other players that were 'missing'. She was amazed at how skilled this girl was. Not even she could play this well and she was a darn good player herself.
Soon Hoshi finish and both Yami and her snapped out of their world. Ms. Nero clapped she was impressed. "Very good. Never had I heard such wonderful music. The only person I ever heard such music was Yami here."
Hoshi blushed. She had forgot that she was here. She thought that she was still home playing only to herself. She picked up her violin. Soon the sound of the Ballad of the Wind Fish was heard. Suddenly it was joined with another sound. Yami had picked up his flute and joined the song. They played in perfect harmony together. By the time the song ended everyone in the room couldn't help but feel relaxed and comfortable. It was the sound of the peaceful but powerful sea mixing with the soothing sound of a wind and air.
"This great," exclaimed Ms. Nero. "This concert is going to be terrific. Be there at 6 o-clock. Alright?" She was just happy. Actually that an understatement, she was more than happy.
"Yeah," said Hoshi. She knew were the concert was.
~~Two Days Later~~ Concert night~~ Right Before it starts~~
Hoshi stood nervously on the stage. The concert started in an hour and players had to be here before it started. She was wearing a black dress. The band hand to wear something nice prefer in black or blue. Her dress stopped below the knees and it hand long sleeves. Surprisingly she was wearing something similar to what the other girls were wearing. The most boys were wearing black pants and a white shirt with a black jacket. Think like a tux but not as formal. Everyone was finishing up the last touches and putting together their instruments. She didn't play in till the end so she had plenty of time. Yami also wasn't playing all the songs. At the most he was playing the first half other the concert and getting really for his performance at the end. Hoshi sighed nervously. She really didn't like playing in front of people like her brother did. But the show must go on.
~~Two hours later~~
Hoshi fiddle with her flute. Soon she would be playing in front of all those people. "Nervous," asked a voice behind her.
Hoshi jumped, "Yami don't do that." She looked at him. Him sneaking up on her was not the best thing to do when she was like this. Who knew what might happen. She may have hit him or worse.
"So are you nervous," he asked again.
"Yeah," mumble Hoshi. It wasn't hard to miss. If she wasn't fiddling with her instruments she was fiddling with her necklace that was around her neck.
"Don't worry about it," said Yami. "You will do fine."
Hoshi sighed again. "You're right. I should do fine. I played this song over and over again so many times I know it by heart."
"That well," asked Yami. "If you can do that then you've been practicing more than I have."
"I have been playing it longer than you," said Hoshi. "I don't even know were I learned Ballad of the Wind Fish."
"Cheryl, Yami you're on," said Ms. Nero.
They walked on to the stage. "I know the handouts said that Yami Mouto and Jane Kun were going to play "Sweet Innocent" but she couldn't make it tonight." There was sighed of disappointment through out the crowd. "I also know that Samuel Miller and Yami Mouto were going to play "Ballad of the Wind Fish" but Samuel also couldn't make it tonight," said Ms. Nero. There was even more sighed and there were even some boos heard through out the crowd.
Someone yelled out from the crowd. "Hey I paid to see this concert I except to see the whole thing."
"Yeah," yelled another. "I want my money back."
There were mumbles of agree agreement. "If you let me finish," said Ms. Nero. "I have found a replacement. Her name is Cheryl Starr. She better know as Hoshi to her friends. She with accompany Yami through both songs." Behind her Yami and Hoshi were setting up and getting ready to play.
Yami set up the stand. Hoshi sat down next to him. "On your count," she said.
"Alright one two three," said Yami. They both began to play. The room filled up with the sound of two flutes playing "Sweet Innocent". Everyone's worries just seemed to melt and float away. Soon the song ended up was quickly picked up with the "Ballad of the Wind Fish".
By the time they were finish everyone felt relax and calmed. Once again Hoshi forgot that she was playing in front an audience. Soon everyone left for home. Outside the concert hall Yami and Hoshi stood there talking. Snow began to fall lightly.
"Hey Hoshi you played real well tonight," said Yami.
"Thanks," she replied.
"See you at school then," said Yami.
"Yeah."
They slowly walked towards their own house. What's funny is that at the same time, half way from their house they stop and looked at the night sky. It just so happens that they thought the same thought. *That was fun. May be one day I'll play again with Yami/Hoshi. Who knows maybe I will.* They looked up and staring at a star. Another thing it's just so happens to be the same star. *One day.*

Yes I know it's short but I couldn't really think of any thing else. I originally didn't plan to throw in the band concert but I thought hey why not. So here it is. Don't forget to review and Merry Christmas.
