AN: Hey all. How're you all doing? Well I've been fine. I've been practicing music, so I think all of my (dare I say it) "writing skills" have gone down the drain, so I think I'll get back on top of it by starting this little gimmick here. Anyways, I hope it's of any enjoyment to you people. Enjoy!!
Pairings:: InuSan, KaguOC, AyaOC
So after the morning, the Japanese Indies Speed Metal Band made their way thru the employees back door entrance in Disneyland so they could make their reservations to take the stage in the original Disneyland. California Adventure would be saved for another time, but right now Ryuta felt inclined to go to a place that held lots of memories for him, and that was the original Disneyland. When they walked in, they were instantly greeted.
"Ah, you must be KOROse. Nice to meet you, my name is Anthony Contreras, Tony for short, but most people call me "Crash". I've been a big fan of your music for quite some time now. I'm very happy you've decided to hold a concert here at the California Disneyland Resort. Is there a special reason?" the man said to them.
"Yeah, we're holding a "Last Live" you can call it. Before we go Major, we just wanna give some thanks to our overseas fans, and hold our Last Live here in America in appreciation for the times they've stuck with us thick and thin." Yutaka explained to him.
"And you must be Yutaka, the band's manager as well as their Live Sound Operator. Nice to meet you." Anthony said to him, holding his hand out to shake.
"You know me well." Yutaka said, shaking his hand.
"Ah, I know all of you. Ryuta Miyahira, Lead Vocals and 1st Lead Guitar. Your voice and solos are the greatest. Kagura Ishimoto, 2nd Lead Guitar and Backup vocals. Keep up those backup lead lines! Inuyasha Matsuzaka, Rhythm Guitar and 2nd Lead Vocals. Awesome voice and a killer rhythmist. Ayame Sakurajima, Bass Guitar and Backup Vocals. You gotta be the best bassist out there. And Sango Takahashi, Percussions and Backup Vocals. Elegant, yet lightning fast drums. You gotta teach me one day." Anthony said to all of them, pointing to each one as he said so.
"Wow, someone's been doing their homework." Ayame said, amused.
"Yes, I am a big fan of yours." Anthony admitted.
"Hmmm, what's your favorite song by us?" Yutaka asked.
"Oh I can't choose! But...I am quite fond of "Mikan no Uta"." Anthony admitted.
"Alright Crash. We'll play that song just for you, with a little goodie in the middle." Yutaka said, crossing his arms.
"We're gonna what?!" Ryuta, Kagura, Inuyasha, Sango, and Ayame said in unison.
"That's right, we're gonna play a little extra something for Mr. Contreras here, right?" Yutaka said, giving them the "You'd-Better-Fucking-Say-Yes-Goddamn-It!" look.
"Yeah...sure..." Ryuta and Inuyasha said at the same time, sighing in defeat.
"Ohhh, you guys are too kind." Anthony said, becoming red.
"Nonsense, so expect a little treat during our performance of Mikan no Uta, Okay?" Yutaka said to him.
"Alright! You'll be performing on the stage in Tomorrowland in front of the Carousel of Innoventions at about 11:30 am, and then again on Tom Sawyer Island at 9:00 pm. Does that work?" Anthony asked.
"Sure! We'll just hang around the park until then. So where do we put our equipment?" Yutaka asked.
"Just bring it in here, and we'll set it all up for you at 11, and it'll be ready for you." Anthony told them.
"Thank you Mr. Contreras. It's been a pleasure working with you." Yutaka said, extending out his hand once more.
"Likewise. I'll always be in service to you guys." Anthony said, shaking Yutaka's hand.
The band of 6 made their leave, but was interupted for a moment.
"Ryuta! Will you please sign my guitar before you go? You inspired me to pick up a guitar and try to shred like you." Anthony said, pulling his guitar out of the case.
"Sure! But don't try too hard, you might get hurt." Ryuta joked.
"I already did." Anthony said, going along with the joke, handing Ryuta the guitar.
"Ahh. A Gibson Les Paul, Studio Edition. My first guitar as a professional musician. 22 frets on a maple wood fretboard with pearl inlays, 2 gold plated pick-ups at the neck and bridge, mahogany solid body with a wine red stain. This is a nice guitar." Ryuta explaing to Anthony, looking the guitar over.
"Yes, I got it in honor of you." Anthony admitted.
"Thank you. That means a lot." Ryuta said, uncapping the sharpie on the table and scribbling his signature both in English cursive and Japanese kanji, handing it to Anthony afterwards.
"Thank you very very much! Oh, and Kagura! Sign this guitar too!" Anthony said, putting away the first guitar and pulling out another one.
"Impressive. MY first guitar as a professional. A Fender Stratocaster with the 3 single-coil pick-ups at the neck, middle and bridge." Kagura said, rather shocked.
She too scribbled her name in English cursive and Japanese kanji and handed it back. Anthony thanked her and pulled out yet another guitar.
"Inuyasha, will you please?" Anthony asked, handing out a guitar to Inuyasha.
"Wow, this is also my first guitar professionally. A Gibson V-Factor Flying V. You sure have done your homework." Inuyasha admitted.
He only scribbled his name in Japanese kanji before handing it back to Anthony. Pulling out a bass, Anthony handed it to Ayame, everyone knowing the drill.
"Ahhh, the Dean Metalman. The first bass that I used on our very first album. Brings back good memories." Ayame said, scribbling her name in English cursive only before handing it back to Anthony.
After that, Sango thought that one of two things were gonna happen. She was either going to have to sign a lot of percussion pieces, or she wouldn't have to sign anything at all. But instead, Anthony had a different proposal.
"I just bought my son his first drum set. He idolizes you Sango, and he wants to be the next you. May I record you playing on his set?" Anthony asked, unveiling a 6-piece drum set.
Sango gasped. That was the same exact drum set she started off with. An 18x22 bass drum, 8x10, 9x12, and 12x14 tom drums, and a 5x14 snare drum. Sango couldn't help but smile.
"Let's get this place all awake and aware." Sango said, cracking her knuckles and stretching out her arms a bit.
Anthony pulled out his video recorder and when Sango was reaquainted with her old buddy, Anthony motioned that he was recording, and Sango blazed away, playing with the utmost passion, remembering all of the good time in the beginning.
An Hour Later. 10:30 am
Sango stretched her arms out as she set down the drum sticks. For about an hour, Sango played nonstop, not that it bothered anyone, and it even attracted everyone in the building. She received wild applause and cheering, almost like that of a live concert. Sango stood, took a bow, and got back together with the rest of the band. After the applause, Anthony put his camera away, and then faced them.
"Thank you so much for everything you guys. You are truly the best band out there, and I wish you luck out there." Anthony said.
"Thank you. Well, we better get going. We'll hang out in the park for about an hour before we perform. See you later Mr. Contreras! And thank you!" Yutaka called as the rest headed out the door.
Once out, everyone took a deep breath.
"Good times, good memories, eh?" Yutaka said to them.
