After signing autographs and taking some pictures Ami and Yumi along with their manager Kaz headed into town for a photo shoot. They arrived at a studio where a photographer was ready and waiting to take some photos for a magazine. Ami was very excited to get some pictures taken and she did various cute posses for the photographer.
"This is my cute wink!" Said Ami as she did a little wink and smiled for the camera.
The photographer took a picture examined it and gave it a nod. He then motioned for Ami to step aside, so he can get to Yumi.
"But I got some more cute poses." Said Ami looking confused.
"Sorry Ami, but we're looking for more of a bad girl rockstar and Yumi fits that description more then you." Said the photographer.
"But I'm just as much a rockstar as Yumi." Pointed out Ami.
"Look you're sweet, but our customers are looking for something with more of a kick and that's simply not you." Said the photographer before he started to take pictures of Yumi who simply just scowled and looked uninterested in the whole thing.
Ami looked a little hurt and Kaz who was eating sweet and sour chicken went over to comfort her.
"It's alright Ami. Some people just want spicy more then sweet sometimes." Said Kaz.
"I'm a rockstar. I can be just as hardcore as Yumi." Said Ami.
"That's not your style Ami. You and Ami are like this sweet and sour chicken I'm eating. You're the sweet and Yumi is the sour. Individual you are good, but together you are great. Don't feel disheartened when Yumi gets attention from people for being a bad girl rocker." Said Kaz.
"I think I'm going to go for a walk and get some fresh air." Said Ami before leaving the studio.
Ami walked down the street lost in thought. She was a rockstar and a good drum player, but she lacked Yumi's bad girl vibe. Ami looked at her reflection in the window of a pawnshop and thought maybe a makeover or haircut might give her the edge she needed to prove she was a true rockstar like Yumi. Ami saw that the pawnshop sold instruments as well as clothes and that maybe something in there could help her.
Ami went inside and began to browse the place. She looked through the clothes, but nothing really screamed rockstar or bad girl. Ami examined some instruments and accessories, but nothing there was catching her fancy.
"Man I really need something to give me a rockstar bad girl edge." Said Ami aloud.
"Hey girl, I just have just the thing you're looking for." Said a male British voice.
"Who said that?" Asked Ami looking around in confusion.
"Look down below." Said the British voice.
Ami looked down at one of the shelves and saw a X shaped box. She picked it up and opened it to reveal two fine looking drum sticks inside.
"Those drum sticks used to belong to a very hardcore and rowdy drummer, whose drumming skills and wild antics were legendary." Said the British voice.
"You don't say. This drummer had a name?" Said Ami.
"I'm sorry, but I forgot his name, but I do know his skills as both a rocker and drummer reside a bit in those drum sticks. Perhaps it'll rub off on you, when you use them." Said the British voice.
"Well I'm ready to give anything a try." Said Ami closing the box.
"Good girl, you're on your way to becoming a great drummer with a hardcore bad girl edge." Said the British voice.
Ami headed to the counter looking for the source of the British voice, but all she found was a girl working the counter.
"Hey do you employe any guys with British accent?" Asked Ami.
"No. None of the employees here have British accent." Said the clerk.
"That's weird. Oh well." Said Ami as she bought the drum sticks and left the pawnshop.
Inside the box with the drum sticks, the sticks began to glow with green eerie energy.
"That's right girl. Time to go bad, because Crazy Styxx is making a grand comeback and is going to take the world by storm!" Said the British voice to itself.
To be continued.
