Kid: What do I need this for?
Ed: Memorize the third track... He's coming in a matter of months or possibly weeks...
Kid: (Nods and walks away)
Ed: God's speed little buddy...

"Alright guys I got us a gig!" Shouted Soul as he walked in to the mansion. Recently Soul, Kid, and Black*Star decided to start a band and so far they didn't suck as bad as Kid expected.
"FUCK YES!" Black*Star shouted as he and Soul high-fived. Almost right away Kid began to ponder what song they should do. A cover? Or their own? Both they decided!

It was a girl's day so all the ladies went out shopping and hanging out.
Liz and Patty went clothes shopping while Maka spent the whole time reading in the library. This was the only time she got to catch up on Manga as Tsubaki read up on Ninja arts.
Bags in hand they went to go have lunch. Maka read her text messages and saw the look on Liz's face.
"Do you even wanna go? I'd rather much pass on hearing them act like fools." Liz said with a smirk. Maka scoffed and smiled.
"Support is one of the qualities that makes women better then men Liz" Maka replied. Liz just groaned and aggreed to go as long as Soul didn't say some speech about loving her etc.
Patty as usual poked fun at her and laughed as Tsubaki thought about the songs the band was gonna play.
"Come to think of it this will be my first concert." Maka said out loud which made the other three girls gasp.
"NO FUCKING WAY!" Cried Liz. Maka raised an eyebrow. Liz sighed and replied: "Hell even Tsubaki went to go see Lamb of God" Maka's eyes grew, Tsubaki blushed and commented: "The singer is amazing heh heh..."
Maka giggled and smiled. "Ladies, it's gonna be one hell of a night then!"

Kid went over his part and his lines which he will not allow me to put because he's shy or some shit...
Soul and Black*Star had everything down so they went to the venue at which Kid was going to meet them there later.
"My voice and Soul's voice won't be symmetrical though! And there's only three of us! ODD NUMBER AHHHHHHH!" Kid went into a frenzy until he saw Maka's face in his photo on his desk. This calmed him and down and allowed him to continue.

Everyone was cheering and ready to see the band play. Black*Star on Drums started to play a fast paced beat, then Kid comes out playing something on Bass to keep up with Black*Star.
Then Soul jumps out busting out with a crazy ass solo which drives the crowd insane! He grabs the Microphone and screams: "WE ARE THE DEATH KNIFES AND WE'RE HERE TO FUCK YOU UP!"
With that the band played a shit load of songs that had the crowd going all night. Soul grinned at Kid which was never a good thing. Soul grabbed the Microphone one last time and asked out loud:
"Who wants to hear Kid sing a song?" The crowd screamed and Kid nearly had an anxiety attack! Maka jumped up and down screaming which gave Kid some courage.
Kid spoke up: "This next song is a cover... But it's for my girlfriend Maka!" The crowd cheered as Maka stood dead center infront of the band. Kid allowed me to post these lyrics and if you like this story you'll understand why he choose this song.
"Yeah, my girlfriend takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because (Yeah, just because)
And my girlfriend likes U.L. and D.H.C.
And she's so smart and independent, I don't think she needs me Quite half as much as I know I need her I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer"
Maka chuckled at all of this and smiled at Kid as he sang with passion.
"And when I feel like giving up Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am She's still up watching Vacation, and I See her pretty face It takes me away to a better place and
(I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine (I know that everything [3x]) Everything's gonna be fine"
Liz shouted at hearing her boyfriend sing back up vocals and it just got more wild from there!

They gang went to a burger joint after the show and had fun laughing and seeing who could eat the most fries etc.
Maka noticed Kid's iPod on pause and decided to listen to what it was on. Maka jumped at hearing Death Metal for the first time. Kid pulled it from her and hid it away without looking back. Before she could say anything he excused himself from the table and went to the bathroom.

Back at Kid's place he answered Maka's question: "I am learning this song to help me defeat my old arch nemisis from my childhood..."
Maka laughed! "You had a nemisis?" Kid just looked at her which she already knew the answer too.

That night Maka fell asleep right away, so Kid wrote in his diary as usual.
'Dear Diary,
Today started off pretty damn good! Soul had booked us a gig and so we spent all day practicing while the girls all went out on a shopping spree i'm guessing... (Kid looked back at his sleeping girlfriend and turned back to write.)
Had some energy drinks and junk food to build up some energy for the show which actually worked! So we kicked some major ass! I actually sang this time and it felt great to be honest! (Kid smiled at the memory of Maka smiling at him.)
Aside from all this I need to prepare for when Damien comes... (Kid scowled and tightened his fist) I will have to kill him this time, I will cut off his fucking head if I have to but he will fucking die!... Until next time diary...
Love,
Kid'
He slowly closed the book and crawled into bed with Maka to which he slowly fell asleep.
