Seto: Thoughts will be in italics to help stop confusion and words he is being sarcastic with or stressing will be in bold. When it is his POV (Point of View) and he is narrating I will put it in Italics ok.... Disclaimer>...
I don't own YuGiOh. So don't sue me and enjoy.
The old songs for this chapter were My Immortal and Kryptonie. God this story looks so short without the songs lyrics v.v .
..:Neal S. Blasidell Concert Hall:..
..: Seto's Point of View:..
Once again, I walk alone, through the stage doors of a concert hall where I'm told my most-loved and generous manager will be. My little Siren, Shizuka, would be setting up for her last show and then the news would be announced that her band was joining with mine.
Mind you it is her band joining mine and not the other way around.
All I bloody hear about is our bands join together at the end of her current tour, which ends tonight. That little so-called Siren is going to pay for this.
Bad enough that mutt of a drummer is in my band.
"Shizuka darling you will be fine addition to Mr Kaiba's band. After all they need a female touch." That must be my little Siren's manager. Idiot how dare he under mind me like that. I doubt she can even sing.
She is having her sound and lighting test before the concert now. May as well watch.
There is a thin curtain near the front of the stage where no one could see me that I could watch from. After all I'd hate to have people thinking I was even interested in her.
..:Normal POV:..
"Lights?" The Director of the concert's gruff voice called out. It was coated in authority but nothing like that of the Blue Eyed Dragon's.
"Ready Boss." A workman responsed. His sweat soaked T-shirt clinging to his body while he climbed down the ladder he was currently on.
"Great." The director lifted a small walkey talker on his shoulder. "Sound are you ready up there?"
"Up and waiting boss." Another male voice joined in the verbal checklist through a check list..
"Good, good now all we need is our lovely Siren."
With that a primmed and casual Shizuka waltzed out onto the stage. Her face didn't display any emotion, as if this sound check was nothing more then a recording booth. Seto, for whatever reason, hid deeper into the curtain.
"Awwww Shizika my dear there you are." The director scurried over to her and then pulled her to centre stage where a microphone waited. " Here... first song we need you to sing is just your warm up opening number. My Only Love ok?" With that he got off the stage and cued everyone to his or her places.
With the dullest of waves the music started. The calm yet sorrowful effect of a piano filled the air. The lights rose giving her a magical effect of orange and pink causing many of the workers to stop their jobs and listen.
A sigh and a silent deep breathe, Shizuka lifts her microphone to her lips and tossed her hair back before letting the notes form words.
Her voice was soft and fit the depressing lyrics perfectly. If angels could ever cry, her voice would be the tool to make them.
Seto Kaiba watched in masked awe from behind the curtain. Right now all he could see was her and all he felt was her words piercing his soul.
It almost hurt to listen to her lyrics. How could someone so young and innocent write something so dark?
As the last few waves of keyboards, strum of guitars and light beats from the drum merge into silence Shizuka released the microphone from her fingers and moved back a little.
She turned side on to face Seto who sometime during the song had moved out from the curtain. "So Blue Eyed Dragon... how do I fair against your judgement?"
..:Seto's Poing of View:..
No wonder they call her a Siren. I've never heard a voice more sincere while singing. What does this matter? She is still going to suffer for daring to think she can be in a band with me.
Oh yes my little prey you will regret ever agreeing with this.
"So Blue Eyed Dragon... how do I fair against your judgement?" Her voice is angelic but I'm sure it's just a front. I learnt the hard way that no one is that pure.
"Any idiot and dolt can sing but playing an instrument shows true musical talents." That should put you on your rock Siren.
"Hmmm is that a challenge Blue Eyed Dragon? If my voice can go up against your guitar?"
What's this... she dare turn my insult into a challenge. All right Siren we will play this game.
"If that is who you wish to see it.Does your little mind know the words to Kryptonite?"
I soldiered up to her on the stage and clicked my fingers. Much to my satisfaction a guitar my guitar was brought to my hand. This will be your downfall.
I start with the easy intro to the song. I saw the child nod her head and grab the microphone and lean into it facing me.
..: Normal POV:..
"Now that's a performance. Well done you two!" The director and both managers came up smiling and smirking and laughing heartily. Both managers holding papers in each hand, more then likely contracts for Seto and Shizuka.
"It will be even better with both bands backing you two and all new songs." The director commented with stars covering his eyes as he begun to picture the masterpiece he could create with so much talent.
Seto practically threw his guitar into the arms of one of the managers while Shizuka pushed her microphone and stand into the arms of the other and both stormed off on a war path in different directions.
Both managers fumbled to hold the instruments without dropping their suitcases or papers. Rolling there eyes while thinking about all the ear plugs they were going to need and damage expenses they would have to pay after the two bands joined together.
