----------Chapter 2: Princess
I awoke in a small, Japanese-style room. I looked around the room while lying down. 'Where am I...?' I sat up and saw I was wearing baggy black clothes... 'EW! DISGUSTING! WHAT ARE THESE—comfortable garments? These clothes are so soft... But it's not Velvet or Satin or Silk! What is it...? Is this that cotton type of fabric that all of my servants wear? Wow... It's soft!' I stood, made my bed, and went into the hallway.
"Hello?" I called. "Is anyone here? Uh—Mr. Kurama? Mr.—Err—Hiei?" An elderly woman approached me. She looked up at me with a frown. "Um... Miss, is this your house?" She nodded.
"Yes it is. And you are late, Miss Asuka Tomita. You're late 3 days!" She yelled at me. I glared down at the old hag.
"I GOT DELAYED!! And who are YOU to address me like that? You shouldn't yell at YOUR superiors!!" I yelled. She smirked.
"I am Genkai. I will be your teacher for the next 15 months." She smirked. I froze.
'THAT OLD HAG IS GENKAI?!!!'
"B-but... I just pictured you—Err—a little taller." I said, trying to be nice. "And more polite." I added under my breath. She glared at me.
"You should respect your elders, Princess Asuka. And if you want someone to baby you and cater to your every whim, you are in the wrong place." She said. I frowned. "You're lucky Hiei and Kurama found you when they did." She added. I scowled even more.
"It's not MY fault that my escort was weak and got killed! I got totally lost in the woods and then I got injured by this annoying Wolf Demon!" I said in an annoyed tone. "It was SO not fair!"
"Life's tough, kid, Deal with it." I heard a boy's voice. I turned around and saw a boy with black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing all green street clothes. He was standing by a tall, idiotic-looking boy with red hair and an UGLY face.
"Kid? I'm 315 thank you! I may look adorably young but I'm 315! GOT IT?" I snapped at the boy. I heard a familiar chuckle and a 'Hn' from behind. I turned around to see a smiling Kurama and an emotionless Hiei. I looked up at Kurama. "I owe you an apology for our first encounter. I was not in the greatest mood." He nodded and smiled.
"It's no problem." He said.
'You know... He is kind of cute...' I thought. I resumed human form and my hair turned brown and my eyes a soft green. I looked down at Hiei.
"I don't owe YOU an apology you heartless-..."
"ASUKA!!" I heard a loud voice. I grinned and walked past Hiei. It was my good friend, Mayumi Tahara (A/n: who, may I add, is going out with Touya! Caught up? YAY!). The blonde gave me a hug.
"Hi Mayumi!" I said happily. She let go of me and we both looked at each other. "You know what...you don't have your whip with you."
"And your sword isn't at your hip." She said in a sly tone just as I did. Everyone looked at us questioningly. She started to laugh. I laughed we both thought about the same song.
"Get out the WAY!" we said at the same time. She walked past me to her room. I grinned. (A/N: I like Ludacris but I don't own his songs... Sadly.)
"What was that?" asked the ugly guy with red hair.
"Haven't you ever heard of Ludacris?" I said. "You know, the rapper?"
"Oh." Said the redhead. He was in my way. I frowned.
"Move." I said. He moved. I walked past him to Genkai. "When do I start?"
"At least you're eager. You start tomorrow morning at four thirty."
"Okay. Four Thirty A.M. right?" I asked. She nodded. "Cool." Kurama stared at me as if I were overly enthusiastic. I looked at him. "What? I wake up around that time every day anyway."
"Except today." Said the boy wearing green. "It's 11:33." I glared at him.
"Today is different. I have a concert anyway." I walked into my room and slammed the door. "I'm getting changed so DO NOT come in Please!" I called. Everyone outside my door went back to what they were doing. I put on black pants from Torrid (A/n: don't own that either, but it's my favorite store!) with zippers on the side and a black shirt that says "Turn The Volume Up!" On it. I walked out with my black and hot pink (A/n: electric) guitar slung over my shoulder. Kurama was still there.
"You're in a band?" He asked. I nodded.
"Our band is called The Night Sky." I said flatly. "If you want to bring all of those other people to see me perform, you can. I don't care. It's in 40 minutes so I suggest you tell them. I said as I walked out and started walking down the sets of stone stairs. I sang to myself (A/n: this is a verse from the White Jungle theme from SA2 Battle). "Oh yeah, hurry through, the island's calling, I don't mind these walls or any obstacles. Oh yeah, hurry through, the island's calling; I'm not scared at all. I don't wanna hear you."
----Inside Genkai's Dojo
"I'm going to Asuka's concert, would anyone like to come?" Kurama asked. Hiei looked at him like he was an idiot. Kurama ignored it.
"I'll go!" chirped Botan. A girl with short brown hair agreed, as did the boy with black hair and so did Mayumi. The ugly boy with red hair also said he'd go.
----40 minutes later... Club Black Light
I peeked out from backstage. There was a large crowd and I saw Kurama, Mayumi, Botan, and the three people I didn't know there. I went backstage again and hooked up my guitar. As did my friends Sky and Tsunai (A/n: see my story A Broken Heart Is Mended From A Kiss). I didn't know Tsunai was with Hiei till I told her what happened. My friend Mika was sitting behind her drum set. Tsunai and I were each at a mic. Sky had her guitar and so did Tsunai. (A/n: the song she sings is from Sonic Heroes—I'm just pretending that they wrote it. I don't own the song or the band that sings it.) The curtains were pulled back and the crowd went wild. We started to play.
"Anywhere you wanna go, anything you need to know, all the best in life, I want to get it for you. Baby, I just feel so fine. I imagine that you're mine. In my world you're gold. I only want to protect you." I sang. "Whatever I want I get. I want shooting stars. Whatever I need I have. When I'm with you."
"Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere. The moon is shining for you. It knows that I adore you. Suddenly all the sadness will just slip away. And you will see what I mean, if you just follow me in my dreams." Tsunai and I sang.
"I was searching everywhere. Suddenly I saw you there. And my love arrived, just in the nick of time. Life floats on a movie screen. You're the star of my scene. Live on the edge of a knife, Larger than life! Whatever I want I get. No one can take your place. Whatever I need I have. When I see your face." I sang. I noticed a lot of the fans singing along. Kurama was smiling. Mayumi always loved to come to the concerts. She sang every word.
"Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere. The moon is shining for you. It knows that I adore you. Suddenly all the sadness will just slip away. And you will see what I mean, If you follow me in my dreams." We sang. Then my guitar solo came.
"Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere. The moon is shining for you. It knows that I adore you. Suddenly all the sadness will just slip away. And you will see what I mean, if you follow me in my dreams..." The song ended. Everyone clapped and yelled.
"Okay, thanks for coming everyone! This next song is a dedication to our lead singer! She's turning 15 tomorrow!!" Tsunai said into the mic. Everyone went wild. "We're going to play her favorite No Doubt song." (A/N: I don't own No Doubt! I wish I did...) I smiled. I had no idea they were going to do this! I sat on one of the speakers and watched them play "Spiderwebs" From the album "Tragic Kingdom." I smiled the entire time of the intro then I HAD to jump in so I could sing it.
"You think that we connect that the chemistry's correct your words walk right through my ears Presuming I like what I hear and now I'm stuck in the... the web you're spinning you've got me for your prey. Yeah Sorry I'm not home right now
I'm walking into Spiderwebs So leave a message And I'll call you back A likely story, but Yeah leave a message And I'll call you back." I sang. "You're intruding on what's mine And you're taking up my time Don't have the courage inside me To tell you please let me be Communication, a telephonic invasion I'm planning my escape... Yeah Sorry I'm not home right now I'm walking into Spiderwebs So leave a message And I'll call you back A likely story, but Yeah leave a message And I'll call you back." The song continued till the end. We played other songs that we wrote such as: "You Think You Love Me," "Love to be Hated," "Death's Lullaby," and "It's been so long." (A/n: Yes... I actually wrote these songs. I'm not giving lyrics out! I know you people will attempt to STEAL! ::Ahem::) The concert ended, I signed tons of autographs. Everyone soon left. Kurama, Botan, Mayumi, and the others remained.
"Asuka! That was brilliant!" Botan chirped. "I had no idea you could sing like that!!" I smiled.
"I love your concerts." Mayumi said, smiling. I grinned.
"You were pretty good." Said the black-haired boy with a grunt. The girl with short brown hair whacked him. She smiled at me.
"What Yusuke means is... You did wonderfully!" She smiled. I smiled back. She held out her hand. "I'm Keiko Yukimora." (A/n: if I spelled the last name wrong, someone please tell me!) I took it. We shook hands.
"Thanks. I'm Asuka Tomita." I responded as I let go of her hand. She seemed very nice. Maybe we'll be good friends.
"I think you did awesome!" Said the ugly red haired one. I gave him a cold stare.
"Was that supposed to flatter me? It didn't work." I said bluntly. He frowned, defeated.
"Don't mind Kuwabara. He's a flirt." Said Botan flatly. I nodded.
"I noticed. It's pathetic." I growled. Kurama smiled at me.
"You have a lot of talent, Miss Tomita." He said. I smiled up at him.
"Thank you."
---------Back at Genkai's
I sat on the porch, just outside the far door of my room. I played random songs on my guitar, which wasn't hooked up because there was no plug in my room. Oh well. The night was quiet, with the exception of my guitar. I leaned against the door and sighed. 'Why can't I get Kurama out of my mind?' I went back inside, put my guitar in its case, and went to bed.
----End of chapter 2!
What do you think? RnR! Nicely please.
