"Marco's got a new client?" went Lyserg Daicell.
"Yeah." said Oyamada Manta. "It was announced yesterday that Marco had decided to make the winner of Iron Maiden Jane's singing competition a famous celebrity."
"Gee. and I thought he had his hands full with Iron Maiden Jane herself." said Horo Horo.
"Music these days are getting so popular," said Amidamaru, shrugging. "I don't understand."
"Don't worry about it, Amidamaru," said Asakura Yoh, grinning at him.
"I think her music sucks," said Kyouyama Anna non-passively.
"Now, Anna, be reasonable." said Yoh, looking at Lyserg that narrowed his eyes in disagreement.
Everyone was in the café grouped up for a little get-together. Chocolove was unable to attend (it seems that he's jokes are getting mighty popular among kids). Faust has just opened a clinic with Eliza. Those two can never be separated.
"Iron Maiden Jane has ultimate talent," said Lyserg. "With her music, maybe the world would be a better place to live in since we couldn't do it during the Shaman battle."
"She's just using her magic to lure people," said Anna.
"Reminds me of the time we first saw her." said Ryu. "Pretty young thing. You'd really believe the world would be safe with her as the Shaman King, until."
"Yeah, well, we don't kill people now do we?" Lyserg did not regret the fact that he was once an X-Laws but everyone else seems to be a little edgy about it. Morphy that had been on his shoulders all the time looked at him sadly.
"Still, she reminds me of Britney Spears. All looks, no brains," said Tao Ren.
"WILL YOU ALL STOP INSULTING HER!!!!" cried Lyserg. "All right, so she is a little. erm. but back then she was the kindest person I've ever met."
"The world of the popular must've spoiled her," said Anna. Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Lyserg took a deep breath. Fighting with these people is not an option. "Anyway, Manta-kun, who is this new person Marco took up?"
"Eh? Oh, her name is Daidoji Tomoyo from Tomoeda. She's currently studying in Seijyu High School."
"So she should be around our age," said Yoh. "So have you heard her, Manta?"
"Oh yes! She's really talented when it comes to singing. I believe her voice put Marco into a trance. From what I heard, he's completely ignoring Iron Maiden Jane."
"WHAT???" The crowd cried.
"No way!" cried Horo Horo. His spirit Kororo fell off his shoulder in surprise.
"Not Marco!" said Yoh.
"Hmm. that makes Iron Maiden Jane free." went Ryu.
"That Daidoji must be really good," said Ren.
"She is!" said Manta.
"Is she human," said Anna, "or did that girl put a spell on Marco?"
"Now Anna." said Yoh.
"Well, what say we have a surprise visit to Iron Maiden Jane's studio and have a look at this girl," said Ryu. "Manta, is she pretty?"
Manta nodded.
"Then let's go!"
"Hey, did Ryu break up with his last boyfriend or something?" Horo Horo whispered to Tokagero.
"Please. he'll have five boyfriends at once if he wants to." said Tokagero, shrugging.
Lyserg, Yoh and Ren shook their heads.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Well, here we are," announced Eriol. "Iron Maiden Jane's studio."
Eriol gave Tomoyo, Sakura and Syaoran a ride to the studio for Tomoyo's first recording.
"Hey, Tomoyo-chan, is it okay if we come?" asked Sakura.
"Of course!" said Tomoyo. "Actually that Marco scares me, so I'm hoping you guys might be some kind of distraction for him."
The others sweat-dropped. "So that's why you rejected his offer on picking you up," said Syaoran.
"SHE'S HEEEEEERRRREEEEEEE!!!!" cried Marco. He zoomed up to Tomoyo and gave her a death-hug.
Tomoyo could only squeal in horror.
"Let her go!" cried Eriol as he gave Marco a punch in the head, making him let go of Tomoyo.
Tomoyo let out a sigh of relief. "Arigato."
"Are you okay?" asked Eriol as he helped her stand up.
"I'm truly sorry about that. It's just that I'm so excited! My star has arrived!" cried Marco.
"His. star?" said Sakura and Syaoran in unison.
"Let's go!" Marco grabbed Tomoyo's hand and dragged her inside. Eriol clenched his fist.
"Now I see why Tomoyo-chan wants us here." said Sakura, sweat-dropping.
From one of the top floors, Iron Maiden Jane watched them, fuming.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Wow. look at the size of this place," said Yoh, looking at Iron Maiden Jane's studio.
"Impressive," said Ren. "But if I want to, I can make a studio bigger and grander than this."
"That's why you're Buchama!" cried Bason.
"Would you shut up!" cried Horo Horo.
"Shall we go in?" said Manta, sweat-dropping.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ah!" cried Iron Maiden Jane. "Everyone is here! Even Lyserg! I'm sure they'll want to see me!" She quickly combed her hair and put on a little foundation. "I have no time to put on proper make-up but I'll use a bit of my magic to make them see the gorgeous me."
She ran down and greeted them. "Lyserg!" she cried, arms outstretched.
"Jianu-sama!" cried Lyserg. Now Morphy fell off his shoulders as Lyserg ran to give Iron Maiden Jane a hug.
"My, how you've grown!"
Lyserg merely laughed. Morphy was fuming.
"It was so sweet of you to bring all of your friends here to see me!"
"Err. actually we came here to see Marco's new client, Daidoji Tomoyo. Do you mind bringing us to see her?"
Iron Maiden Jane's eyes grew wide in horror. She took a step back. "You didn't come here to see me?"
"Well, that too and." went Horo Horo, but he stopped short when he saw Iron Maiden Jane's aura glowing bright red.
"So it's all about Daidoji now is it?" she hissed.
"Jianu-sama. went Lyserg. "What's wrong?"
"GO LOOK FOR HER YOURSELVES, YOU JERKS!!" she cried, and then she ran back. She could hear everyone call out to her in surprise.
Damn those idiots! What's so great about her? What about me? What happened to the almighty Iron Maiden? Why that girl has no magic, and she has no intention in saving this world! Why I should-
Iron maiden Jane knocked into someone and fell flat on her behind. She screamed in pain. "Damn you-" but she was cut short.
Eriol held his hand towards her. "Are you okay?"
Iron Maiden Jane then saw how incredibly handsome he was. She took his hand and he pulled her up. He's strong. "Thanks."
"You were in such a rush. Is something wrong?"
"No. not anymore!" she said, grinning.
Eriol went dot-eyed. "Eh?"
"Who are you, anyway?" said Iron Maiden Jane in her sultry voice.
"Me? I'm Hiiragizawa Eriol."
"Can I call you Eriol? Pretty please." she said, grabbing unto Eriol's arm.
"Err. sure. Okay. Why not?" He laughed nervously. "Y-you're Iron Maiden Jane, right?"
"You can call me Jianu-sama," she said, laying her head on his shoulder.
Eriol sweat-dropped. Tomoyo's being harassed by Marco, and I'm being harassed by.
"There you are, Hiiragizawa!"
"Li!" cried Eriol in relief. Instantly he pulled his arm away from Iron Maiden Jane.
"Quick, Daidoji's gonna start," said Syaoran, approaching them.
"Right. See you," said Eriol to Iron Maiden Jane. Then he and Syaoran left.
"I see." said Iron Maiden Jane, through gritted teeth. "He's with that girl. Damn her. DAMN HER!!!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Eriol and Syaoran stepped into the recording studio and found it to be crowded.
"Who are these people?" said Eriol. "And they have ghosts hanging around them."
"We're not ghosts!" replied Tokagero.
"We're spirits," explained Amidamaru.
"They're shamans," Syaoran explained. "They once battled Iron Maiden Jane. And the guy with green hair was from X-Laws. They're here to see Daidoji."
"Are you single?" said Ryu to Sakura. Sakura took a step back away from him.
Syaoran with sharp ears was about to grab Ryu, but Ren grabbed Ryu first. "Would you stop playing around?!"
Sakura ran to Syaoran's side. "Everyone is nice, except for the man with the Elvis hair-style," said Sakura. "He freaks me out."
"There she is!" cried Manta, pointing to the recording room, where Tomoyo stood in front of a microphone with headphones on.
"Waaa.." went the shamans. Their spirits also looked at her with awe.
"She's so pretty." said Horo Horo.
Anna knocked Yoh's jaw in place.
"Tomoyo-chan! Do your best!" cried Sakura, waving.
"I don't think she'll be able to hear you." said Ren.
But Tomoyo looked at Sakura and waved back. The others looked back and forth from Tomoyo to Sakura.
"What?" said Sakura. "We're best friends."
"Stand back!" cried Marco. "And be amazed by my star! BEGIN!"
The music then started. After a few beats, Tomoyo began to sing.
"In the night sky I gaze above/ To the stars so golden/I still remember the last dream I had/ You gave me hope when all light was gone."
Everyone in the recording studio was mesmerized by her voice.
"Beautiful." went Ryu.
"She's so good." said Horo Horo.
"Oh, how sleepless this night is/ As I sing my song so lonely/ In this still breeze I'll think of you/ Someday all my feelings will be with you."
Yoh's jaw dropped down again. Anna knocked it up again. She then looked at Tomoyo. "This girl is a normal human being. For sure this talent is purely hers."
"In the night sky I gaze above/ To the moon of silver/ Even though dreams weren't meant to come true/ I'll be alright if I am with you.
"Ah, the kindness of this night/ Seems to be-"
"STOP RIGHT THERE!"
"Eh?" went everybody. The music stopped. Then they jolted in surprised when they saw Iron Maiden Jane next to Tomoyo.
"What the hell are you doing, Maiden Jane?" cried Marco.
"How dare you steal everyone's attention when their attention belongs to me!" she cried.
"I don't understand." murmured Tomoyo. Iron Maiden Jane grabbed Tomoyo's wrist.
"Stop that," said Eriol, who just entered the room.
"Eriol! You're with her?" gasped Iron Maiden Jane.
"Let Tomoyo go."
Sakura gasped. "Eriol-kun just called Tomoyo-chan by her first name!"
"Didn't Iron Maiden Jane just said Hiiragizawa's first name, too?" said Syaoran. The other shamans looked around confusingly.
Iron Maiden Jane loosened her grip around Tomoyo's wrist. Instantly, Tomoyo pulled her wrist away and ran behind Eriol.
"This won't be the last." Iron Maiden Jane hissed. Then left.
"What the hell was that?" went Horo Horo.
Everyone else shook their heads.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Marco screamed
"What?" everyone went.
"The recording was a mess! Now we have to do it all over again!" He cried. Then regained his posture. "Never mind! I'll do my best! Right, my little star?"
Tomoyo sighed. Eriol held her shoulders comfortingly.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Waaa. a little long, isn't it? So what's on Iron Maiden Jane's head now?
"Yeah." said Oyamada Manta. "It was announced yesterday that Marco had decided to make the winner of Iron Maiden Jane's singing competition a famous celebrity."
"Gee. and I thought he had his hands full with Iron Maiden Jane herself." said Horo Horo.

"Still, she reminds me of Britney Spears. All looks, no brains," said Tao Ren.
"WILL YOU ALL STOP INSULTING HER!!!!" cried Lyserg. "All right, so she is a little. erm. but back then she was the kindest person I've ever met."
"The world of the popular must've spoiled her," said Anna. Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Lyserg took a deep breath. Fighting with these people is not an option. "Anyway, Manta-kun, who is this new person Marco took up?"
