A/N: Alright guys hope you guys enjoyed the last chapter. I'll try to update as much as possible before I have to go to my next class. Please R&R.
-AMU'S P.O.V-
'He's here, he's really here, but why?'
"Xena! Introduce us!"
Alice hissed at me and I finally snapped out of my daze. I took a deep breath abefore walking back to my spot on stage.
"Before we begin we're going to introduce oursleves."
I said and turned to look back at Grey. He nodded before walking up to me and getting this mic.
"I'm Grey, second bassist."
He said to the crowd before handing the mic over to Alice. She smiled at the crowd before introducing herself.
"I'm Alice, second guitarist."
She said then handed the mic off to James.
"I'm James, first bassist."
He said before handing the mic to Chikari. I began to relax as I looked at the happy faces of my bandmates. I was here to give a show and that's just what I'll do. I'll talk to Ikuto later.
"I'm Chikari, first guitarist."
She said with a smile then handed Hikaku the mic.
"Yo, I"m Hikaku and I'm the drummer."
He said with a smile before looking at me and tossing me the mic. People in the crowd backed away, afraid they'd get hit in the head, but I reached up and caught the mic before bringing it down to my lips.
"And I'm Xena, the singer. Now that introductions are out of the way, let's get this party started."
I said with a smile and the crowd cheered. I turned to Grey and nodded. He smiled before starting the bass line to Wish. The others joined in as the intro progressed. I looked back at Ikuto and smiled as the intro ended. He came for a show and I was going to give him one.
-IKUTO'S P.O.V-
I couldn't believe it, it was really her. It was Amu. I watched frozen in place as each member or the band member of the band introduced themselves. Then Amu introduced herself as Xena. I heard a song start to play, but still couldn't take my eyes off Amu. She looked right at me as the intro ended and smiled before singing. My eyes widened as I heard her voice. I had never heard Amu sing before, I don't think anyone back home had. Utau has an amazing voice, but Amu's...the way her voice carries with such confidence draws you in. It's sweet, yet rich tone was both pleasing to listen to and alluring. I heard the crowd go wild as Amu stepped to the edge of the stage and accepted a fan's hand in her own as she kept singing. I watched her as she went back to her spot on stage. The song ended with the crowd cheering loudly. They instantly got quiet when the next song started. I looked down at the program Utau had shoved in my had earlier and saw the playlist for The Guardians. The song Amu was singing now as called Starless Night.
I looked back up and finally took in the other band members. I noticed how looking at them now it seemed like they were all really close.
'No wonder she left.'
I saighed and Yoru flew to sit on my shoulder. He looked up on stage and his eyes widened.
"Ikuto nya. Is that Amu nya?"
He asked and I sighed again.
"Yeah. She looks happy where she is."
I said and turned to leave. When I did I noticed Amu's voice got louder in one spot as if she was yelling at me not to go. I turned back around and saw a slight blush on her face as she kept singing. I couldn't help but smirk at the woman on stage before me.
'Seems like I might actually still have a chance to let her know how I feel.'
I stayed where I was after that. Amu and her band played song after song, all the while Amu kept her eyes locked on me. As if to make sure I didn't leave. Finally they started to play their last song. It, like the other songs, was new to me. I'd never heard it before, but I instantly loved it. When they finished the crowd went crazy. Amu and her bandmates just smiled before walking off stage. I got up and followed, I needed to speak with Amu.
-AMU'S P.O.V-
"That was amazing, the crowd loved us!"
Chikari said as she laid down on the bed of the room we were allowed to stay in.
"Yeah, but Xena what was with that part in Starless Night? You got louder than necessary."
Alice said and I blushed.
"I-I thought I saw something, but I was wrong."
I lied and they all laughed at me. Suddenly there was a knock at the door and we all froze. We were told not to open it to anyone since Takki, Ben, and Mr. K all had a key. We sat quiet for a while until I heard something.
"Did you guys hear that?"
I asked and they all looked at me confused.
"All we heard was the knock at the door."
Grey said and we all sat quiet again. Then I heard it, the soft whistled sound of the KitKat theme song. I felt tears in my eyes as I heard someone whistle the first part from the other side of the door. I got up and whistled the second. They whistled the third and I ran to the door and opened it to reveal Nagi, Kukai, Yaya, and Rima. I whistled the last part before they all attacked me. We fell to teh ground as we all hugged eachother. Tears were streaming down my face. I hadn't realized how much I'd missed them. I couldn't believe it had almost been a whole year since I left.
We pulled away when someone cleared their throat. I looked up to see Grey and the others looking at me confused. I smiled sheepishly before wiping my eyes. We all stood up and went to sit on my bed. Everyone was looking at me.
"Okay, introductions. Grey, Chikari, James, Alice, Hikaku, this is Rima, Nagihiko, Kukai, and Yaya. They're my friends from back home. Rima, guys, these are my friends and bandmates."
I said and everyone looked at eachother and stared. I thought it would go on forever until Yaya smiled.
"Yaya thinks Hikaku is really good on the drums. Yaya wonders if Yaya will ever be that good."
Yaya said and everyone laughed making her blush.
"Xena, why does she speak in third person?"
Hikaku asked and I smiled.
"That's just how Yaya is."
I said relieved they weren't all trying to kill eachother. Especially Rima, she is crazy when it comes to me having new friends.
"Xena? Amu, why did Hikaku call you Xena?"
Nagi asked and I blushed.
"I-I kinda wanted to start over here, so when I got a job at this club I told them my name was Xena."
I said and he and the others nodded.
"Wait, so you were serious when you told us your name was actually Amu? Man, sorry we laughed at you. We thought you were joking because you were nervous."
James said and I shook my head at him.
"No worries. But yes, my name is Amu Hinamori."
I said and Grey and the others nodded before smiling. I noticed how Yaya kept looking at James and smiled to myself.
I glanced down at my watch and my eyes widened. I had three minutes to find Utau and talk to her.
"I'll be back."
I said and headed for the door ignoring the calls of my friends. I ran down the hall and headed for the stage. I couldn't believe my luck when Utau was right there.
"Utau!"
I yelled as I ran up to her. I slowed to a walk and stopped before her.
"Who are you?"
She asked and I sighed as I caught my breath. Of course she wouldn't recognize me, I did dye my hair.
"Hey, wait a second Utau. She looks familiar."
Utau's devil chara said and I smiled at her.
"Glad at least one of you remembers me Iru."
I said and both she and her sister gasped in shock.
"A-Amu?"
They both asked in unison and Utau looked at them confused.
"This is not Amu, she doesn't have ridiculously pink hair or any charas."
Utau said as she crossed her arms and I sighed.
"Guys come on out."
I said tot the four who followed me when I ran from the room. Ran, Miki, Suu, and Dia all floated around my head. Utau's mouth dropped before she regained her composure.
"So it is you."
She said and she sounded hateful. I sighed, I had to tell her.
"Utau listen, please. I know you don't like me very much because you like Ikuto, but you need to know I like him too. I believe I may love your brother. I'm sorry you hate me so much, but I'd really like to be your friend."
I said and waited for her response. She glared at me before finally dropping her arms with a sigh.
"It's fine Amu. I've learned that Ikuto doesn't see me the way I see him. I know I need to move on. And I don't hate you because I know you really do love my brother. Just know that if you hurt him I'll kick your ass."
She said with a smile and I shivered. I knew she was dead serious.
"I wouldn't have it any other way."
I said with a smile of my own.
"So, friends?"
I asked tentively.
"Friends. Here, call me after the concert."
She said as she wrote down her number. I put it in my pocket and smiled at her as she walked onto stage.
"You did it Amu! You're friends with Utau."
Ran said and I couldn't help but smile.
"Yeah. Hey guys, go check on the others and tell them I'll be back. And if Rima asks tell her it's code blue, she'll understand."
I said and my charas nodded before flying off back to the room. I smiled before taking off to find me a blue haired neko.
