"So congrats, you've made the team. But don't think it's permanent. We could always switch you with someone else. We'll see how well you get along with everyone else."Ichigo said, smirking as he stared at Rukia.
Nodding her head, Rukia followed him down a hallway, towards a black door. Opening it, he entered, Rukia close behind. Looking the room over once, he pointed at a black haired boy with spiky hair and tattoos all over his face. "That's Hisagi, he's the bassist," which Hisagi responded with a nod. "That's Uyruu, the one with the glasses," nodding his head toward the other black haired boy. This boy made eye contact, pushed up his glasses and said in a rather stiff voice, "Nice to meet you Rukia-san." Nodding her head, and saying "Likewise," she turned her attention back over to Ichigo. Smirking, he pointed over to a black couch that was up against left wall. On it was a short, though a bit taller than Rukia, boy with shockingly white hair, and beautiful aqua eyes. He was currently scowling at Ichigo, who in return was giving him the same treatment. "And that's Toushiro, the midget."
"HITSUGAYA TO YOU AND I'M NOT SHORT, IDIOT!" the boy yelled right back at Ichigo. Suddenly he began coughing, his body shaking slightly. Uyruu sighed and grabbed a glass of water, and then hurried over to his friend. Giving Hitsugaya the glass, he gave Ichigo a look that could kill. Ichigo just shrugged.
"Hey Hisagi, where's Monkey Boy?" Ichigo asked turning towards the band member.
"I have no idea-probably getting drunk, that retard," Hisagi answered, laughing quietly.
Suddenly the door behind them burst open, revealing a teenager boy. He was around Ichigo's height, had flaming red hair pulled back in a ponytail, dark brown eyes and tattoos for eyebrows, and some more running down his neck to disappear underneath his shirt.
"Hey I'm back and I brought CHICKEN," he yelled happily. Still grinning, he looked at Ichigo and then noticed Rukia. Blinking, his grin became more of a dumbfounded expression, as he stared at her.
In return, Rukia was staring up at him. Her face was blank as she looked at him.
"R-r-Rukia?" Renji stuttered.
Slowly, Rukia began to grin. "Hey Renji, how's it going?"
Yelling, he dropped his bag, grabbed the small girl, hugged her and began to swing her around.
"Hey let go of me you big oaf!! I need to do something called breath, it's rather important, in case you didn't know," Rukia yelled, kicking Renji. He finally dropped her after she had kicked him were it counted. Kneeling, he clutched his gut, and turned green, though he was still grinning. Standing over him, Rukia laughed.
"Sorry, your own fault," she said smirking.
Ichigo looked between the two, surprised, and though no one could tell, he also felt a small tinge of jealously. "You two know each other? That's good, saves us a bit of time. Now that you've met everyone, I guess we're going to have to meet your band, right?"
Rukia gave him a grin. "One sec, I'll call them, and get them over here."

15 minutes later, a red convertible pulled into the recording studio's parking lot. Rukia ran out to greet her friends, leaving Ichigo standing at the door. A moment later she returned with 4 other girls.
"'K, guys, this is Ichigo. Ichigo, this is everybody-I'll introduce them separately when we get inside."
Nodding his head, he turned and entered the building, the Midnight Butterflies following. He almost missed the comment the busty ginger with the mole by her mouth, had said to Rukia. "He's a cute one isn't he, hmm?" The rest of her friends burst out laughing and Rukia quickly denied every accusation they began to throw at her, blushing.
'Girls..," sighing quietly Ichigo looked at the ceiling and shrugged as he continued to walk down the hallway.
X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X
Opening the door to the bands room, the second time that day for a bunch of strangers, Ichigo went in first and then walked off to the left, watching as the other band filed in, still whispering to each other. Except for one girl, who looked bored, as she watched her friends talking about guys and love and some other stuff. She had short spiky hair, navy blue eyes, and was average height, which fit the typical tom-boy description. Looking away, Ichigo shook his head slightly and noted to himself to not pick fights with her, until he saw how well she did hold up. Maybe Renji could be a test subject…hmmm. Shaking his head once more, he coughed quietly. All the girls looked up, as if they just noticed where they were.
"So let's begin." Nodding his head towards Renji, Ichigo signaled for the introductions to begin.
"I'm Renji. The Drummer"
"I'm Ishida Uyruu; I'm the keyboardist and DJ. Pleased to meet you"
"Hisagi here, bassist."
"...Hitsugaya, jack-of-all-trades" Ichigo-being the oh-so-observant person he was-noticed one of the girls blush and then smile slightly. 'Hope she's not a fan girl', he thought.
"And I'm Ichigo, as you know. I play guitar and I'm currently the lead singer until Toushiro gets better. Now your turn"
"Rukia, lead singer, but you guys already know that"
"Matsumoto, guitarist" said the ginger with the mole. She was fairly tall, maybe around Hisagi's or Renji's height and she looked more like a model then someone who played guitar.
"Orihime, and I play the keyboard and I also sing the backup. Nice to meet you," the orange haired girl said, smiling. Like Matsumoto, she looked more like a model then a band member. She had long gingery colored hair, the sides held back with two flower-shaped pins. She had gray eyes that seemed to laugh happily at everything.
'Wow, optimistic much?' Ichigo thought, chuckling to himself.
"Tatsuki, Drums. Don't screw with me if you wish to keep the ability to have children." This navy-blue eyed girl was the one that kept quiet before, and had looked so bored. She now her both her arms crossed across her chest, and was staring defiantly at Renji. Now Ichigo wanted to laugh. And Renji looked a bit confused as well as frightened, as he slowly, oh-so-slowly backed away from her.
"Hello, I'm Momo Hinamori, and I play bass. Please be kind to me," said the last girl. She had long brown hair tied up in a high ponytail. Her eyes were a soft brown that reminded Ichigo of milk chocolate. She had been the one to blush and smile when Hitsugaya introduced himself. Hitsugaya was staring at her, but not in a harsh way, which was a first for Ichigo. This was actually, probably the first time Ichigo had seen Hitsugaya so surprised.
Ichigo clapped his hands, getting everyone's attention. "So we know each other. As you know, we're stealing Ms. Midget," (this earned him a glare and a rather painful kick to the shins from Rukia), "I want to see her full potential with others, people she's more familiar with. So how about you perform for us?" Ichigo said, smirking.
Rukia shrugged. "Sure why not, we've got nothing to lose. That okay with you guys?" she asked, looking over her shoulder at her girl friends. They all nodded or said 'yeah', so Rukia looked at Ichigo and nodded.
"Great, so I'll go set up the studio for you guys," Ichigo said, turning to make his way to the place. He felt a small hand on his shoulder though.
"Wait. If we perform, then you have to, too. So I can see what I'm dealing with." Rukia demanded.
"Fine, I don't care." Ichigo shot back and then turned and left. Tatsuki yawned.
"Tired?" Renji asked. Turning, she looked at him.
"Nah I just stayed up to late last night practicing karate."
"I know a bit. Wanna try it out?" Renji said, smirking, confident he could take a girl.
Hitsugaya groaned loudly, and slapped his face, while Rukia, Hisagi, and Matsumoto laughed. Hinamori and Orihime looked concerned while Uyruu sighed, shaking his head.
Grinning devilishly, Tatsuki began to advance towards Renji, who in turn, ran right at her. Next thing he knew, he was on his stomach, his arm twisted on his back, a foot to the back of his head. Tatsuki smirked as she sat on his back and then tugged on his arm, sending a shooting pain through Renji, which told him his arm should NOT be bending that way.
"Damn it, woman, get off me!"
"Last time I remembered, my name wasn't woman," Tatsuki crooned, kicking him softly in the head.
Just at that moment Ichigo returned. Blinking once, he asked, "Do I want to know?" and got laughter as his reply. Shaking his head, he turned away.
"Ok, I'm already to go. Come on Renji, stop fooling around," Ichigo said, waving his hand and leaving through the door he had just entered through.
Still laughing, Rukia, Hisagi, and Matsumoto trailed after Ichigo, Uyruu following with a small smile. Hitsugaya got up, and walked towards the door, slipping his hand behind Hinamori's back as he went. Steering her towards the recording area, he left with the blushing and smiling girl.
"I think we should go now Tatsuki," Orihime said giggling.
Smirking Tatsuki leaned closer to Renji.
"I'll have a rematch anytime, Monkey-Boy. But I think we both know how it'll turn out." she whispered softly into his ear. Getting off his back, she walked out with Orihime.
Growling, Renji got up and left the room last, slamming the door shut.

Yay! end of Chapie 4! :3 So about the whole Paul thing. The songs i use in this fic are songs that i was listening too and i could imagine the Bleach character singing. So the voice has to fit the character or else it doesn't work out for me...So, not trying to sound rude-but each race of people sound different when they sing. At least most of the time. Black people have a really nice sound to there voice and since there are no Black Bleach characters(except the blind person..can't remeber his name-whateves, he's evil anyway.) and i wanted someone to fit the role in the Black Eyed Peas song, and maybe a few other ones, so Paul was created. For all you OC haters out there, don't worry-he'll probably only show up once or twice in the story. Just to sing a song or something.
So thats all i got to say. And if that was confusing one way or another-i'm making a character Chapter, which will have info on all the Characters and they're Roles in this Fanfic. Paul will be included of course. I'll probably have that in 2 or 3 chapters.
Anywho- REVIEW OR I'LL SEND EVIL PENGUINS OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION ON YOU... beware the penguins....
P.s. I'm planning on drawing the Characters outfits when they're at concerts and such, so that its easier to picture this story happening.
P.s.s. To Mikazuki Mitsukai: don't worry some IchiRukia stuff is going to happen soon and it'll be good. maybe. T.T
