A/N: Thank you Silent Pandemonium and NejiKoriKaze. Apparently this wasn't as hidden and forgotten as I thought. The fandom needs more reviewers. You can find my Tala cosplay from YouTube, just write ReKaYuminusKai - Tala is cold, in many ways.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Demolition Boys or the song from the movie Chicago.

Bryan's POV

I've noticed, that if you are bored, you just need to mention it to Maria and she'll do anything to entertain us. She's a big fan of the musical Chicago and actually auditioned to get to perform as Velma Kelly to the Bolshoy Teatr. She wasn't too happy when she didn't get the role. The director was ready to cast her as Mama Morton, if she wasn't that young. And I thought –I- hold a grudge easily. Wrong-o! She's the new champion in that.

She just went to change her gear, said that she at least tries to entertain us by giving us a little private performance. Ack! That sounds so WRONG! I think we might be getting a piece of Chicago. Kuza style. Spikes and glitters. One day I was surfing the net and discovered almost a perfect match for her. Well, she's said to be Russia's Pink, but you get even bigger kicks out when you compare her to a Japanese guy named Miyavi.

Door slams and the four of us turn toward the door of her room. Holy hell. She looks a bit like a courtesan… In her own way. Not like a cheap slut you see at the dingier parts of Moscow, but like one who demands big bucks. She tinkers something in the corner for a moment.

"Chicago?" Tala is the only one who she convinced to watch it. He seemed to like it. And that made me more than a little worried. He's gay. Gotta be gay. "Bryan? Whacha starin' at?"

"Nothing, Tala… Absolutely nothing." Here we go…

"Ask any of the chickies in my pen…
They'll tell you I'm the biggest mother hen…
I love 'em all and all of them love me…
Because the system works
The system called reciprocity..."

Oh I knew it…

"Got a little motto
Always sees me through
When you're good to Kuza
Kuza's good to you."

Wow. She tweaked the lyrics. And note the sarcasm I kinda caught from Tala. Hah! She hit Ian on his nose with that fan! I guess this would work way better if she wasn't my sister… Why she's starin' at me?

"There's a lot of favors
I'm prepared to do
You do one for Kuza
She'll do one for you."

Oh… You fucker… I haven't done anything worth scolding! Well, perhaps I hogged the remaining apple pie a month ago, but… And smoked with some random dude I met at the bus stop… Never would have thought she'd actually be in that bus and not driving that Subaru Impreza of hers.

"They say that life is tit for tat
And that's the way I live
So, I deserve a lot of tat
For what I've got to give"

Yeah right. I'm still not doing the laundry or washing the dishes!

"Don't you know that this hand
Washes that one too
When you're good to Kuza
Kuza's good to you!"

I didn't get it, but by the looks of it, I can relax 'cause neither Tala or Ian got the point in that. Hell, now I'm starting to see what makes her one of the best live performers in the music business in Russia. And she's MY bigsister. Whoops. I hope nobody saw that little fanboy moment there. Damn, freak-o, can't you make anything permanent? No thank you for feelings. At least for these embarrassing kinds. Damnit!

"If you want my gravy
Pepper my ragout
Spice it up for Kuza
She'll get hot for you!"

Oh. My. God. I so did not need to see that. At least that explains the few weirdoes she keeps attracting. Like that stuttering dude who pissed himself for real when she once got VERY angry. Outrageous. Hey… Since when I cared? Fucking Christ!

"When they pass that basket
Folks contributed to
You put in for Kuza
She'll put out for you"

Spencer looks happy. I guess he got his salary from Maria. I heard she paid him well for the first month of being a manager. He's underage, but he is the one who organizes her stuff. That's Spence for you. The rock.

"The folks atop the ladder
Are the ones the world adores
So boost me up my ladder, Kid
And I'll boost you up yours"

Are my eyes deceiving me? Fuck, Tala is actually blushing. But it's not everyday he gets someone's… front… shoved up in his face. Now I'm confused. Does he like Maria? I'm confused… And I don't LIKE being CONFUSED! ACK!

"Let's all stroke together
Like the Princeton crew
When you're strokin' Kuza
Kuza's strokin' you"

Well, dunno about that, but I almost had a stroke! Ow my eyes! That feathery fan hit me straight in the eyes! I have no idea what she's doing since I'm rubbing my eyes like no tomorrow. Bitch. That's what she is…

Ah, now I'm starting to see… I hate this…

"So what's the one conclusion,
I can bring this number to?
When you're good to Kuza
Kuza's good to you!"

The show ends and we clap. Well, that was entertaining, I give her that. I didn't even yawn.

"That song fits to Queen Latifah far better than you."

Tala… You are officially weird.

"I know. But hey, worth for a shot. Hope it wasn't too bad. I saw you comparing me to her in your head. We are of totally different calibre."

Shit. I guess I'm stuck with that movie for a while… I'm doomed…

"Where did Bryan run to? And why the hell was he screaming like somebody was about to maim him?"

"Not the foggiest idea…"
