During his depression, Shinu developed the ability to seek out people's souls, the good or evil. With this and hearing about a famous Visual Kei band, his dream for his very own band was resurfaced in a heartbeat. He soon prays that his band will surpass Black Bloody Thorns and be number one! They are called May~Traverse!Souls!

OOC Notes
Old abandon Theatre
Shinu Yoshiba was walking to his secret hideout, putting bright colored posters on the walls behind him. He had one more left and he read it as he rounded a corner.
Attention!
Anybody interested in Visual Kei? Music? Singing? Or even playing an instrument?
Well here's you time to shine! Join May~Traverse!Souls, a band with a passion for Visual Kei.
Help us with our wish to surpass our rival, Black Bloody Thorns, and be number 1!
People we are looking for:
A bass, drums, keyboardist, and two female back up singers!
......
There was more, showing the address to the abandon Theatre. Shinu made it and put the last poster on the door. Walking through the door, he looked around and saw that it was the same as yesterday. The old, dusty rows of rows of dark red seats with the large, empty stage. Below the stage was a long table and two chairs that he put there yesterday. Shiro's late...Oh well. Shinu ran to the table, his baggy clothes slightly slowing him down. He sat in one of the chairs and brought out papers and a pencil from his bag. Okay, all there's left is wait for Shiro and applications. He rested his head on the table and closed his bright green eyes. He woke up early this morning and didn't get to eat breakfast. Hope Shiro brings food.

OOC Notes
Layla was jogging, a normal practice of hers, when she noticed the signs places around. She continued jogging in place as she studdied one. Her heart began to race. A drummer! She was a drummer! And she could sing as well. In her curiosity she continued her exercise, pondering the idea of being in a band. On her way to check it out she grabbed some food, mostly some veggies and some doritoes. The abandoned theater had always freaked Layla out. She cocked her head to the side for a moment, then entered.
OOC Notes
When Shinu heard the door open, his head shot up and looked over to the entrance. There was a girl with bleached hair with light blue eyes. Yes! A application! Shinu jumped out of his chair and waved at the girl. "Hey! Over here!"he yelled out, hoping the girl could hear, see him. His bright eyes glinted with excitement. Shiro wouldn't mine if I started the sign-ups without him. His mind started asking himself a hundred questions, but only one was standing out the most. I wonder what position she is?
OOC Notes
Oliver was on his way to the supermarket to get baby food when he suddenly noticed a rather large multi-colored poster, who could possibly miss it? Oliver noticed they were looking for a bass guitarist and he just so happened to be one. Oliver wasn't a huge fan of Visual Kei he only knew them because his niece always had there music blaring from her bedroom. Oliver was desperately seeking some kind of a job maybe this could be his only chance? Oliver walked slowly into the old abandoned theater quickly noticing the girl with the bleach blonde hair. Oliver heard a loud enough voice come from inside, Oliver stood still for a moment "Maybe it's best if i wait outside." he thought to himself.
OOC Notes
The girl started to walk up to him, but before they said anything, Shinu saw another person, a guy, walk in. Yes, more people! Right now was the best day in his life, after becoming friends with Shiro. He signaled the girl to take a seat by the table and wait for a moment. He ran up to the taller man and smiled. "Hello! If your here for the band sign-ups, please wait over by the table for me. Okidokie!" He ran back to the table and rearranged the papers on the table, trying to fight back tears of joy.
OOC Notes
Shiro quickly changed into a black button down shirt and a pair of ripped jeans. "Im late Im late...!" he said mostly to himself as he ran out of his room. He came back in and grabbed his guitar. How could he have forgotten his guitar? Shiro dashed out of his house, ignoring the question his father was asking. He stopped by at a store and bought a bunch of food thinking Shinu probably didnt get to eat yet.
When he got to the old abandon theatre, he kicked open the door, "Sorry.... I.... late.." he said panting. "Hmm I see we already got some people to join." he said a bit surprised. Shiro walked over and threw the bag of food at Shinu. "I'm guessing you didnt eat yet." he said setting his guitar down on the side. "Well hello." he said to the others.

OOC Notes
Shinu jumped up as the door was kicked open. "Ahh!" He saw redish brown hair instantly knew it was his only best friend. "Shiro!" He ran up to him and hug the living lights out of him then went to his seat. He watched Shiro put down his guitar by the table and threw a bag of food at him. "Food!" Shinu hugged the food and started to eat. "Thaff yof for teh fooyh!!!"he said, trying to say 'Thanks for the food!'. He gulped the food and turned to the applications. "Sorry about that. Who's first?"
OOC Notes
Shiro nodded as in saying "No problem." and turned to his guitar. He took it out from the case and hopped onto the stage. Shiro pulled over a chair and sat down. He started to play a soothing song, tapping his feet along. He watched as Shinu started the sign up sheets, and eating. If he didnt look after Shinu, he'll probably starve himself to death without realizing it. Shiro chuckled slightly and continued to playing the guitar.
OOC Notes
Layla walked up, skin shining with sweat and breathing displaying her exhaustion. "Erm, I don't have my usual stuff but I have my laptop and I could show you some of the other preformances or auditions I did." She took a breather moment as she began dropping her bags. "I'm a drummer but I'm also pretty good at singing." She began easing forward with her laptop in hand, eyes flashing attractively in the light.
OOC Notes
He smiled at Shiro playing his guitar. Every time he plays his guitar, Shinu went to peace. He snapped back into reality and looked the girl. "Oo~! A drummer! That's good!" Shinu clasped his hands together and jumped up and down in excitement. He watched her take out her laptop. "One question. What's your name?"
OOC Notes
"Ugh..." Ella moaned as she trudged through the mud that was her yard. Her feet where sticking in the squishy dirt, and she was sure she lost a shoe with that last step. "Why does it rain?" she asked her self as she stepped onto her porch and started to beat off her shoes. "My hair is a mess..my stilettos are ruined, and my jeans are a disgrace!" she continued to grumbled and try to salvage what was left of her outfit. She walked into the house, growling again, and looked around to see if anyone else was home.
OOC Notes
Shiro stopped playing as soon as he heard the phone ring. "Oops... sorry about that." he said with a small smile before getting up from where he was sitting and walking out of the theater. "Hello, Shiro speaking." he answered as soon as he was out. "WHERE ARE YOU? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE STUDYING RIGHT NOW!!!" his father yelled from the other end. Shiro pulled the cell phone away from his ears. "Alright dad, you dont need to yell. Do you want your son to be deaf?" he said leaning on the building wall. His father started to say things in japanese, which he usually did when he was angry. Shiro just stood there listening to his father until he finally stopped. "Come home and study. Your grades have been failing. All because of the stupid band you're dreaming of!" his father said coldy through the phone. Shiro sighed, "It's not a stupid dream. And studying isnt everything. I'm kind of busy now... I'll be home later." he said before hanging up. Listening to his father speak gave him headaches.
OOC Notes
Layla opened the laptop and began pulling up the different files. "I'm Layla Blackwood," she said with a pretty smile. She put the laptop down on the table before her and looked at Shinu. "Just press play. There are three videos there. The first is an audition for a band of whom regected me 'cause I'm a girl. The other two were just me and a couple of my friends messing around. The music that I'm playing is written by myself." She leaned backwards and waited for a responce.
OOC Notes
"Layla? That's a cute name!" Shinu looked down at the laptop and pressed play. He closed his eyes and listened to the music. He turned his head to Layla. "Really? Who cares if your a girl! Girls are better rockers than guys are! Just look at BoA." He scrolled to the other videos and fell in love. "I say absolutely yes! What about you Shiro?" He turned his head to his best friend, watching him get off the phone with his father.
OOC Notes
"Huh? Oh, uh yeah, awesome." he said looking up from the phone. Shiro walked over and sat on the stage, putting his phone away. He didnt really listen to the video, but seeing that Shinu liked it, it was probably good. "Alright then we got a drumer.. and who else do we need again?" he asked scratching his head.
OOC Notes
A soft smile grew on Layla's face. "Thanks," she said multiple times. She crossed her arms and cocked her head as she looked over at Shiro. For a moment her light blue eyes lingered on him and then her eyes narrowed. "You know, you're pretty cute, but I'd really like your own opinion and not a basic knowing that Shinu here liked it." She raised an eyebrow, clearly amused.
OOC Notes
Shiro stared at her, "Alright then.." he said jumping back down and walking over to the laptop. He clicked the play on the video and listened the the music. A small smile spreaded across his face, "Yup, I like it. Your drumming skills are amazing." he said stopping the video. "Just like what Shinu said. Usually I could tell if someone is good or not by Shinu's reactions."
OOC Notes
"Thanks," Layla said, grinning. "Sorry to be an ass but I don't like it when people do that." She closed the laptop and placed it back into her pack. Her phone rang but when she noticed it was from her dad she didn't answer it. Her eyes scanned the area before resting on her shoes, which she seemed to take interest in. "And if you guys ever need backup singing or even a girl singing I'm up for the job."
OOC Notes
Shinu smile grew at Shiro's answered. He looked over Layla. "That's what usually happens!" He clasped his hands together at what layla said. "That will be great!" His stomach growled and ate some more from the bag Shiro gave him earlier. "Now all we need is a bassist, keyboardist, and another singer!" He began to hum to his favorite song, White Wishes by BoA, which was playing softly on his headphones.
(Here's the song that he's listening to White Wishes)
(Here's the song that he's listening to White Wishes)
OOC Notes
"No you werent being an ass at all. In fact I like it when people do that instead of of sitting there not able to say anything." Shiro took out his ipod and plugged it in his ears. He took a seat across from Layla and turned on some music. He sank back on the chair and closed his eyes listening to the music.
OOC Notes
Layla grinned. "Alrighty," she said, mocking them by putting her ipod headphones in her ears. She began listening to one of the songs she played for the talent show five years before. She was growing bored quickly, though, and eventually began pacing around the room. She was still covered in shining sweat and was wearing her exercise clothes. The light shining down from the ceiling was gleaming off her skin, expressing her delema.
OOC Notes
Yukino Kanade swept her black hair over her shoulder as she stepped onto the pavement of the main street. It was a nice, cool day, Yuki's favourite weather; this weather was the only thing that motivated her to come out of her shy shell. As she stepped over the pavement, she glanced to the side, where there was a board of advertisements and signups. She gave a casual glance at it, and saw...
"A female singer needed....?"
It was an ad for a visual kei band. Yuki wasn't really the kind for the insane fashion scene of visual kei bands, but she did consider herself a decent singer, and this might help her go out more...
Taking her iPod, which had examples of her singing on it, she set off towards the abandoned theatre that was their venue, according to the sign up.
After she got to the theatre, she quietly slipped into the theatre, and saw various people there. Instantly she nearly regretted coming, but she gathered her courage, and walked up to Shinu. Well, at least he was also Japanese, that would help a bit.
"Er...I'm here about your ad...for a female singer? If you want, you can listen to some of my singing..."
She offered her iPod out, blushing in embarrasment.

OOC Notes
Shinu turned around at the door opening. He saw a girl with black hair, but something was sort of off. He closed his eyes and then opened them, the original bright green replaced with red and a white pupil. He saw a basilisk, a giant, dragon like serpent surrounding her, letting out a dark aura. He blinked the seeker out of his mind and smiled sadly at the girl. Maybe we can help her..."Your just in time!" He clasped his hands together and pulled her over to the table. "Applying for singer? That's great!" He hugs the girl and speaks. "What's your name?"
OOC Notes
Yuki nodded.
"I'm Yukino Kanade...though just Yuki is fine. I saw your signup a few blocks away for a Visual Kei band..."
She felt something strange, like someone prodding her mind. Then, without meaning to, she activated Eye of the Basilisk against Shinu. It was not powerful this time, thanfully, but it was enough to cause some pain to him. She didn't even try to activate it, as she did not even know she had this power.

Shinu winced as he felt pain surging into his mind. He used his hand to block the dim light that covered the theatre. What the... "Ow..Ow...okay, it's gone,"he whispered to himself, but knew all to well that Shiro could hear him. "Well...alright Yuki-chan! Let's listen to your talent, okay?" he resumed to his smiling manner. "So your Japanese like Shiro and I?"
(Shinu likes to give out nicknames to people, he just doesn't give one to Shiro.)
