Disclaimer- Yeah. I don't own jack shizznit. That's about it. Nope, I
have a question. Why do I have to do this for EVERY chapter? I mean, I
already said I don't own this! JEEZ! Grumble grumble grumble.
Des- Hey! You're starting to sound like our brother!
Bunny- This is sooooooo annoying, though!
Des- Well, you still have to do this. It's a MUST. I mean, did you READ the rules?
Bunny- Who reads the rules?
Josh- Well, Desmond does.
::Bunny and Josh snicker::
Des- So what?
Bunny- ::still snickering:: Well, on with the story!
Ch. 3- In Which We Meet the StarLights (Doesn't correspond to a Desmond chapter. I felt like writing it first.
HAH!)
3- Tourniquet by Evanesence-3 [Well, this is the type of song I would blast and sing while cleaning! Plus the fact it's my fave Evanesence song! To get full affect, turn it up VERY loud! And wait 'til the singing starts to read.]
Bunny is busy cleaning the house she and her brothers share. She's wearing an old pair of jeans filled with holes, an old gray sweatshirt that has the collar cut out and is drooping over her left shoulder, and a gray sweatband. She's singing along with the music as she dusts the guitars hanging on the bedroom doors. There is a custom moon-shaped guitar on her door, a custom X-shaped guitar on Desmond's door, and a custom Z-shaped guitar on Josh's door. When they first moved to Japan, she had decided to decorate their house with a music motif. There are records on the living room wall, musical notes stenciled in the hallways, and a 50s diner theme in the kitchen, complete with mini-jukebox on the table.
She doesn't hear the door slam as Josh comes home, but she certainly hears him stomping up the stairs towards her. She walks to the stairway and glares at him. "TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF! YOU'RE TRAMPING MUD ALL OVER THE FLOOR!"
Josh holds his hand to his ear. "WHAT?! I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE MUSIC!" She sighs and grabs his arm and pulls him down the stairs. She turns the volume on the radio in the hallway down. [You can stop blasting the music now, people!]
"Take your shoes off, Joshua!" She points authoritatively at his feet. He blushes and removes his shoes.
"Sorry, Bunny. I guess I was a little excited. It's just that I wanted to show you this!" He thrusts a flyer at her.
"What?" She reads it out loud. " 'The Three Lights, the famous pop idol band, is looking for you! If you think you have the stuff, try out for a spot to sing a duet with Kou Seiya! Enter at the following website.' It's dated for tonight at 7!" Josh nods and smiles excitedly.
"I thought you'd be great for it. You know, sing the song you didn't get a chance to sing before we moved."
Bunny nods, still staring at the flyer. "You go call Desmond. I'm going to go visit this website and enter. Then, I'm going to dig out that dress and practice a bit." Still staring at the flyer, she walks dazedly up the stairs and into her room. Josh runs to the payphone they have in their kitchen. He puts the change sitting next to it in.
"Desmond, bro, it worked! She's going to do it!"
"AND IIIIIII-EEE-IIIIII WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOOOOOOUUUU!!!!"
"THANK YOU! Please step out." Kou Seiya sighs and rubs his aching head as the girl leaves. At least this was the second to last person in the long list of helplessly talentless people. He turns to his band members. Kou Yaten was sitting with his feet up on the chair in front of him and his arms crossed, a thoroughly exasperated look on his face. Kou Taiki was sitting ramrod straight, bored as hell.
"So, Seiya, who's the next sucky person?" Yaten leans over to him, arms still crossed.
"Her name is Warlight Bunny. Luckily she's the last sucky person. HEY! Ask Kakyuu-hime to show the last person in!"
Bunny enters. Yaten sits up and whistles, and even Taiki's interest is peaked. She looks stunning in a one-shoulder silvery dress that hangs just above her knees. She has tiny clear high-heeled sandals on her feet, and her hair is perfectly tousled. Her lips are a bright red and her eyes are ringed with a smoky black line. Her brothers follow her in. She approaches the microphone, clears her voice, and speaks sweetly into it.
"I hope you don't mind I brought my brothers. They're kind of my support system slash tech boys." The Three Lights nod dumbly, still struck by Bunny's beauty. She smiles at them and turns her attention to Desmond. She kneels down and whispers some instructions in English to him, then straightens up. "I will be singing a song called 'Heart of Glass' by an American group from the 1980s, Blondie. Ok, Des."
She stands poised as she waits for Desmond to start the music.
3- Heart of Glass by Blondie-3 [Aw, c'mon, what did you think I was gonna say?]
"Once I had a love, and it was a gas
Soon turned out, had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Once I had a love, and it was divine
Soon found out, I was losing my mind
Seemed like the real thing, but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
In between what I find is pleasing
And I'm feeling fine, love is so confusing
There's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you
It's just no good, you're teasing like _______
Once I had a love, and it was a gas
Soon turned out, to be a pain in the ass [original words]
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Lost inside a durable illusion
And I cannot hide, I'm the one you're usin'
Please don't push me aside
We could have made a cruisin', yeah
::Bunny does a cute little dance during the music break and the guys singing::
Run and hide, although I'm still too shy
Oooooo whoa
Oooooo whoa
Oooooo whoa
Oooooo whoa
Once I had a love, and it was a gas
Soon turned out, had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

::Bunny does another little cute dance until the music fades.::
3- Brave New Girl by Britney Spears-3 [A nice little celebratory song.. plus, it's one of my power anthems!]
The Lights applaud, stunned that she had sung so beautifully. In the row in front of them, five girls were applauding and going nuts.
"YEAH, BUNNY-CHAN! YOU GO GIRL! YOU SING THAT SONG!" Bunny laughs and waves to them. Usagi, Ami, Rei, Makoto, and Minako wave back, and Minako and Makoto begin catcalling her.
"Damn, girl! You look good enough to eat! WHOO!" They both whistle as Bunny blushes and Desmond and Josh try to look indignant. Seiya clears his throat.
"Excuse me, could you three please step outside the door? Don't go anywhere!" Bunny smiles and holds up her hand in an 'OK' sign. She and her brothers step outside. Desmond and Bunny sit in a couple of chairs as Josh walks over and begins speaking to Kakyuu. Bunny nudges her brother and points to them.
"Hey, Des, why is Josh talking to that chick? Aren't he and Minako- san an item or something?"
Desmond chuckles. "That's one of our teachers, Bunny! She teaches cooking at Juuban. She never mentioned knowing the Three Lights, though. Ah, well!"
While Desmond and Bunny continue their discussion of teachers and school, inside the auditorium, Yaten, Seiya, and Taiki are trying to get details about the girl from her friends.
"You KNOW that angel?" Yaten asks, his face flushed. "She was beautiful." Usagi giggles.
"Looks like SOMEONE'S infatuated, wouldn't you say girls?" The other Senshi nod and giggle. "If you must know, she and her brothers are here on an exchange program from America. As the youngest, Bunny-chan was forced to have a mentor, and I'm her!"
Taiki stares blankly at her and scoffs, "You? A mentor? HAH!" Seiya swats at him and gives him a LOOK. Taiki coughs and says, "I mean, you, a mentor? How.. nice." Seiya nods and smiles.
"So, do you guys agree that this girl is the one to do this duet?" Seiya looks at his fellow band mates, and they nod. Yaten smiles widely and then, seeing the Senshi staring at him, quickly wipes it off and goes back to his trademark exasperated face. Seiya signals to someone standing by the door. "Please bring the girl and her brothers back in. And please bring Kakyuu-hime, also."
Bunny and Desmond jump in surprise as the door swings open. A huge, muscular, and bald Japanese man in a tux crooks a finger at them. "Da Lights wants youse three back in here. You too, Kakyuu-hime. Tanks." [hahaha.. dumb Shikuza guy! (Shikuza= Japanese mob. Aw, crap. Now they're gonna be after me. Dammit.)] They all follow the man in and stand onstage. The Lights and Senshi come down to stand with them on the stage.
"Please, have a seat!" Seiya indicates some chairs that are on the stage. Everyone but Bunny sits in a chair. Bunny, completely disregarding the chairs, sits on the floor at Usagi's feet. Usagi reaches down and begins to play with Bunny's hair. Seiya clears his throat. "The three of us have made a decision that you, Warlight Bunny, are the winner of this contest. You're the ONLY decent singer.. yes?" Bunny had been raising her hand to speak.
"Well, I was on your website, and I noticed your severe lack of bass player and I was wondering, is it ok if I play my bass guitar during the duet?" She smiles sweetly at them and Yaten kinda melts.
"Sure, I don't see why not. I mean, it would be very good. And you definitely should sing that song you just sang during the concert." Everyone giggles at Yaten's babbling streak. He clears his throat and blushes. Bunny smiles gently at him and giggles. This causes Yaten's face to get hot and he excuses himself. The Senshi all dissolve into laughter after the door closes behind him. Seiya joins with a hearty chuckle, and Kakyuu hides her silent giggles behind her hand. Even Taiki lets out a derisive "Hah!" Bunny shakes her head at them.
3- Show Me Love (Extended Version) by t.A.T.u.-3 [OK, so this indicates the end is near, but OMG this song fits this part great!! WHEE!]
"What's so funny you guys?"
Usagi catches her breath enough to say, "Yaten-kun has a crush on you," before dissolving into laughter again. Bunny frowns as her brothers join the laughter. She stands and straightens her skirt. Shaking her head, she walks out the door and looks down the corridor both ways. She walks towards the EXIT sign, predicting that he probably stepped outside. She was right. She finds him sitting on the concrete stairs outside the door.
"Gomen for interrupting you, Yaten, but.." Her eyes widen as the light from inside reveals tears in the corners of his eyes. "Oh, my.. what's wrong?"
Yaten smiles and whispers huskily, "I don't know. Emotions.." He waves his hands to indicate further that he doesn't know. She smiles gently down at him and sits next to him.
"It's all right. They're a rowdy bunch, ne?" She points towards the door. He laughs softly. "So, um, Usagi-san said that you may have a crush on me, is this true?" Yaten blushes and nods slightly. She chuckles and puts her hand on his shoulder. "Well, instead of leaving, you should have asked me on a date, silly!"
Yaten clears his throat, stands, and reaches his hand down to Bunny. "Bunny-chan, would you like to go on a date with me?"
"Of course, Yaten-chan!" She reaches her small hand up and places it inside of his larger one. He helps her up and they walk back inside, both with large smiles on their faces.
