Chapter 18: Band Geeks.
Grimmjow pushed his glasses back, and glared at Aizen, who stood on the podium, clearing his throat nervously and shifting weight from foot to foot.
Finally, Grimmjow snapped, "Stop been a wuss and hands us down our damn instruments already!"
Aizen cringed, "No yelling in the band hall."
He sighed, and started taking row.
"Starrk, Lilynette, please come to the front." He said.
The two Espada walked together towards Aizen, and he handed them both clarinets.
He then called Barragan, whom he gave a tuba.
The old geezer went back to his seat, and bragged about being the "core" of the band.
Harribel was called, and received a trumpet.
Then Ulquiorra, and received a flute.
Nnoitra and Grimmjow got trombones.
Zommari was in charge of ALL the percussion equipment.
Szayel was given a saxophone, and Arroniero an oboe.
Aizen gave Yammy a French horn.
As everyone settled back into their seats, and the Fraccion and other Arrancars joined the section of their preference, Aizen stood back on the podium.
He cleared his throat loudly, and his two drum majors, Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tosen joined him.
They lifted their hands at the same time, and a girly voice hollered, "Set!"
Instruments were whipped up, held high and proud.
Orihime stood smiling like an idiot behind Aizen.
Aizen spoke, "Take out movement one: Thriller."
Some of the band members smirked, and took out the music.
Aizen gave them the beats, and said, "One, two, three, four, One, TWO!"
The trombones and trumpets blasted through with a catchy rhythm that had Orihime tapping her foot.
The rest of the band clapped out, and then the tuba joined, along with the frecnh horn.
"Cause this is thriller, thriller night! And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike!" The color guard appeared out of nowhere, fluttering their flags and singing.
Aizen smiled, and conducted some more, along with Gin and Kaname who exchanged glances as they noticed him speeding up.
The brass players bopped up and down unconsciously, speeding up along with Aizen.
The Woodwind players swayed from side to side, until the Sax solo came in, and everyone quieted down.
Slowly, a person clapped, and soon the whole band had picked up the rhythm and sang while the percussion had their soli, "I'm gonna thrill ya tonight, ooh, baby! I'm gonna thrill ya tonight, oh, darlin'! THRILLER NIGHT, Oh, baby OOH!"
Aizen went insane, taking off his tie and his hair rebelling into random wisps at different directions. He threw his glasses over his head, and yelled, "EVERYONE!"
Everyone stopped playing, and shouted, "The foulest stecnch is in the air, the funk of forty thousand years! And grizzly ghouls from every tomb, Are closing in to seal your doom!"
The percussion got rowdy, and banged on their instruments like mad man.
"And though you fight to stay alive, your body starts to shiver, for no mere mortal can resist…..
…THE EVIL OF THE THRILLER!"
