-All the characters mentioned, besides Alyson and "her band", DO NOT belong to me. :D

Not much to say. ENJOY THE EMO STORY:DD

Chapter 3- A especially warm welcoming.

They soon got over what had happened. Shikamaru called for another bus.

"Haha So reliable..isn't he?"

The instruments were fine. Ino stood under a tree, slowly getting soaked, but enjoying the sight of the many people huddling under one or two umbrellas. Nope, there definitely wasn't a lot of people on the bus. Choji, Lee, Shikamaru, and a bunch of other people that handled the equipment. That's all the people in her crew. They weren't a big band, but they were known by a few. Rock Lee, the pianist, tried to mock Ino's deathly glare. His pale skin and black eyes look terrifying, and his clothing were all wet. He looked like a zombie that came from the dead. Ino laughed at him. But, really, Ino wasn't happy. She was just trying to flood out that annoying whisper that followed her everywhere.

As she arrived with her band, many shrieks and angered voices could have been heard. Drunken ones. Since Ino's band came from Konoha, and they were currently in the Sound's territory, the crowd wasn't exactly fans of them. "I don't have a good feeling about this, guys.." Chojo said, while watching the angry crowd 'boo' the bus.

"Y'all got no chance against us! Might as well forfeit!" Someone shouted. The alcohol floated about in the air.

Ino ran backstage. Her eyes filled with sadness. "How DARE they say that about us? Do they not know about our greatness? We'll kick the other teams ass for sure!" She said to herself, trying to bring out the rage in her. She knew it wasn't working very well. Shikamaru ran in. Seeing how sad she was behind all of the threatening rage, he put an arm around her. "Uh..Well, this isn't much of a bad start...?" He said, nearly embarrassed by the series of mishaps.

"Don't even bother." Ino sighed, trying not to let her emotions leak away.

Shikamaru copied. "Yeah, yeah. But remember that we are all here for you. Even your parents. Although they aren't really physically here, they will always be there mentally. Watching over you—" He continued on. Ino, being very pissed off at this state, shrugged his arm off from around her, and walked away to another room locking the door behind her. Lee, the pianist, put a light hand on his shoulder. "You idiot." He sighed.
