Sorry for not updating in forever, been busy with my other stories you see. Holiday & Soldier I mean. Check them out please? I'd like feedback on them both. Anyway, I'd like to have some song suggestions for this story. Please tell me the title of the song and the band name.

Thanks!

Kai pulled up his silver car into the driveway if an expensive looking house. Slowly pulling into the garage so he didn't scratch it. He turned off the blasting music coming from the stereo. Their last album was playing at full volume. "He we are." Kai pulled out his keys and stepped out of the car. "The moving men should have finished bringing in and setting up our things."

"Finally." Bryan said. "It sure took them long enough ne?" He jumped out of the car without even opening to door.

Kai glared as he closed his car door. "Watch it Kutsenov, you scratch it, and I will hurt you." The car was a sport; it was all silver with a decal of a black phoenix on the front with the band name beneath it in purple letters.

"Yeah yeah yeah." Bryan said rolling his eyes a bit.

Spencer carefully got out of the car and headed for the door to the large house closely followed by Garland.

"Stop bickering will you?" Garland snapped.

"Fine." Kai scoffed and walked inside.

The inside was huge. Ivory painted walls and fine tile floors and carpets. A large room was the practice room with one wall that was completely glass, a huge window that showed off the well-kept grounds out back. Acres of green grass and trees in a huge garden.

The practice room had white walls and a hard black marble floor. Records lined the walls along with equipment and spare instruments. A recording station was also there so if they made a new song they could get it on a saved file.

The room on the other side of the wall was the living room with an expensive TV the size of a movie theatre screen, huge plush leather couches, shelves of DVDs, some that hadn't even been released. Video games on another shelf that went to their PS2, Xbox, Game Cube, and other game players.

The kitchen was fairly simple, knowing that the band could cook well enough but wouldn't need much. They mostly lived off snack food anyway.

Kai walked over to the phone to play back any messages. The phone beeped and played the last one that was saved.

"Boys, I got you a show at a bar tonight. It's in the downtown area and it's usually pretty packed. I want you to go play a concert there and show off a bit. We need to get our popularity up more as you know." A cold voice ordered, none other than the manager, Voltare. "Also, it wouldn't be a bad idea to bang some groupies while you're at it."

Kai and Bryan gave a small smirk at the short message.

"Banging groupies eh?" Bryan asked. "That looks right up your alley Kai."

"Mmm… Maybe. Sounds a bit fun." Kai shrugged with a smirk. He then looked around the house. "Looks like everything is in the right place."

Kai was wearing a tight tank top that stopped just above his navel so it showed a strip of skin that was tough with muscle. On his back, just barely peaking our from behind his shoulders was his tattoo; an ebony black phoenix with purple flames. Showing hours of working out. He wore tight black pants that moved on him like second skin. His black hair was held in a small ponytail that stopped before his shoulders. His right ear was pierced and had a small, black, metal feather dangling from his ear; no bigger than an inch long. His storm grey bangs were wild in front of his face giving him a godly appearance. His eyes where a strange shade of burgundy that seemed to burn.

"So it looks like we have a concert eh?" Bryan asked no one in particular. He wore a long sleeved grey shirt that he had rolled up to his elbows loosely. He wore black baggy pants covered with spiked chains. He wore spiked bracelets on each arm that sparkled in the light. His lip was pierced and both his ears were as well. His left ear had eight studs in it though along the way up. His lilac hair was shaggy with a few spiky strands that shot up slightly. His boots were charcoal black with about 30 buckles on them that were silver.

"Looks like it." Garland said. He sat down on the counter. He wore a black leather jacket and baggy grey pants with flames at the bottom. "Sounds like fun doesn't it Spence?"

Spencer nodded in agreement. He wore his normal outfit of green. However, he wasn't wearing the fuzzy hat.

At the bar

"Hey Rei!" Tala yelled as he bounded over to his friend who was cleaning off the bar with a small towel.

"What's up Tal?" Rei asked smiling. He stopped working and put the rag on his hip. He had changed clothes due to his boss's orders. A red halter top and semi-tight black pants that showed off his perfect ass and taught stomach. His hair was let free without a wrap. Around his neck was a simple leather collar with a silver pendant.

"Nice get up." Tala chuckled.

"Shut up. I have to wear it remember." Rei said smugly.

"Yeah I know I just like to annoy people." Tala grinned happily. "Anyways, the boss just told me that we're having a concert here tonight!"
"Really?" Rei asked surprised. "What band?"

"You know that new one everyone's talking about? Soul Release?" Tala asked. "Well it's them!"

"Wow! How'd we managed to get a band like that?" Rei asked dumbfounded.

"Not a clue." Tala shrugged. "Anyways, I have to move some of the tables around, boss says that he wants a dance floor and stuff. So Kenny is setting up lights."

"Ok cool. I'll finish up here then see if I can't help you out." Rei said smiling.

"Nope sorry, boss says he wants you to great the band and take care of them. You know, get them drinks and stuff. They'll be coming here in a bit, so they can get ready before this place opens for the night." Tala said to his friend.

"Oh. Ok. No problem." Rei said starting to wipe the table so it shined. "Just as long they don't treat me like a groupie."

"If they do let me know ok?" Tala asked suddenly becoming serious.

"Ok." Rei nodded then continued wiping the wood in front of him it started to shine in front of him as he polished it.

With Kai

"Come on you lazy asses! Get in the car!" Kai yelled from inside the garage to the inside of the house. "Bring your instruments too. Except for you Spencer, they'll provide drums for you."

"Coming!" Garland called as he came out with his silver base.

"Hey Bry grab my guitar will you?" Kai called as he got in his car once again.

"Got it." Came Bryan's smooth reply. He walked out with Kai's black guitar. It had a silver Phoenix that was hand painted on it. He also held his guitar, which was a deep purple color, almost blue.

The entire band clambered into the car and put the instruments in their cases. Kai revved the engine one and then sped off to the bar.

"I wonder if they'll be a good crowd tonight." Bryan asked.

"Most likely, I mean, our stadiums are usually packed." Kai said smoothly. "I'm confused why we're singing at some bar though."

"I think that the boss is a friend of our dear manager." Garland said.

A few minutes later Kai pulled up his car into the back of the bar where it would be safe from any robbers or fans. The group got out of the car all holding a case with their instrument except for Spencer who walked quietly behind. Kai banged on the back door harshly. "Oi! It's us, the band!"

"Coming!" Came the faint call from inside. It sounded almost feminine actually. The door then opened up showing Rei. "Um yeah come on in. I'll show you were you can put your instruments behind stage." He stared walking off.

Bryan gave a look at Kai with a raised eyebrow and wolf whistled.

Kai smirked and said lowly "Back off Kutsenov, I get dibs on this one."

"Aw you get all the good ones." Bryan glared a tad.

"Anyway, I think he's that kid that was on the pick up truck." Kai said as he started to follow Rei with Bryan and the other two following suit.

Rei lead them to the back stage area where a couch and table were sitting. The band set their things on the table then flopped down on the couch.

"Hey kid." Bryan said.

"Yeah?" Rei asked.

"Get me a drink will ya? Hard vodka." Bryan said. "You might as well get one for all of us."

"Um sure. No problem." Rei said then jumped off the stage area over to the bar that was off to the side.

Kai's eyes were glued to Rei's backside as he walked off.

"Hey." Came a curt voice from the floor near the tables. "Watch it while you have the chance cause there is no way you're going to get it." Tala almost growled in defense of his friend while the singer stared.

Bryan looked at Tala for a long moment scanning his body and smirked slightly.

"Oh? And why won't I? Are you his boyfriend or something?" Kai asked raising an annoyed eyebrow.

"No." Tala glared. "I'm his best friend. And I won't let you use him then leave him broken like some groupie." He put his hands on his hips and glared more.

"Hn." Kai said closing his eyes. "We'll see."
