Fuyuki's large eyes were hidden under large sunglasses. Stepping out of the car, her artsy t-shirt and stone-wash skinny jeans made her stand out a bit more than she should. The smirk over her lips when she looked around the building. She entered the building with her guitar case, just after Sayuri, with the air of confidence and a little mystery in her. "That girl's going to getherself killed one of these days," she said playfully.

When she entered backstage, she noticed Sayuri in trouble with...Mark of Cain. The band they were going to open, a group of very handsome (very pretty) men who had the looks to send them almost anywhere. She was a fan of their music, they had good things to listen to but nothing that would make her go crazy with love. She caught herself up with Sayuri, moving behind her, "Sayuri, don't scare these pretty boys," she put her guitar down and placed her hands on Sayuri's shoulder. She stared at the band, a bit of a flirt she was.

"We're Next Oktober but I'm sure you know that," Fuyuki gave a sly wink to no band member in particular, "I guess you'll see us around,"

Nova stood off to one side of the band, leaning against a wall and gazing off into space. Listening to his own thoughts more than what was going on around him. His aura was settled, calm, as though this concert did not concern him in the slightest. Why should it? They were good enough - more than good enough - and it was only their fans who would be in the audience. What idiot would go to a show for a band they did not like?
Tukuro brought up an interesting point, however. They had never met these girls who would be playing for them.

"We'll be fine," he told Tukuro evenly, turning and giving them a soft smile. They were not on stage yet, so his stage persona had not yet made its appearance for the days. He was just being the calm, responsible leader... not yet the flirt. "If the girls don't like us, we don't have to play with them again, right?"

"True!" Santa laughed, standing a little nearer to the rest of the group with his bass in-hand. "It's just one show, ne?"
For a moment it looked like Santa wanted to say more, but he was cut off by the flying, skidding body of a young woman. One of the members of Next Oktober, he was willing to bet, running too fast and nearly falling in front of them.

Nova lifted one eyebrow, lips quirking in amusement at the girl's apology.
"It looks like it happened to me," he answered, chuckling quietly and shoving off of the wall.

"But we don't mind!" Santa observed in a bright tone that did not match up with his powerful, almost frightening face.

And then another girl appeared, coming to the first girl's rescue.

She caught herself up with Sayuri, moving behind her, "Sayuri, don't scare these pretty boys," she put her guitar down and placed her hands on Sayuri's shoulder. She stared at the band, a bit of a flirt she was.

"We're Next Oktober but I'm sure you know that," Fuyuki gave a sly wink to no band member in particular, "I guess you'll see us around,"

"Hey there!" Santa greeted them with a flirtatious smile. Nova rolled his eyes slightly, reaching over and slapping Santa across the back of the head.

"You are not bringing the girls home with you, so don't even try," he told Santa firmly, before stepping up and bowing slightly to the pair of them. "I am Nova."

Yuna stepped out of the car and heaved her bass up onto her shoulder, shaking out her short, reddish hair. She stared after Sayuri and Fuyuki, grinning and shaking her head before hitching into a run, chasing after them. She, too, barely managed to stop before colliding with Mark of Cain. She did stop, however, turning and giving them a forceful smile.
"Hey!" she greeted them casually, then turned to the other girls. "Tryin' to get yourself hurt, Sayu?"

Tsu wore black and spikes for the show, he was pretty excited, but calm at the same time. Tsu was sitting down and playing his guitar softly, wondering how it would be. Looking at Turkuo and answering his question,"Don't frown, they are going to like us, they wouldn't be coming to open for us if they didn't." He was a little nervous about the show but not about the girls. Then a girl came running right in front of them and retorted to her sentence,"We just saw you." He laughed to himself and then stopped playing his guitar when another girl came right up behind the other, putting her hand on the other girls shoulder, saying that they were the band of Oktober. "Uh, they just keep on coming." He said to himself and sighed as another one came and said hi to them and then she turned around to talk to the first girl that came in.

"What the hell are you doing brat!?",a grouchy voice yelled. Aki sighed as the rest of her band mates headed out,she didn't know if she actually wanted to meet this pretty boy band or not. Sure, she had listened to a few of there songs and they actually sounded pretty good, but the drum work was sloppy."Definitely no Keith Moon",she muttered, removing a pack of cigarette's from her jacket pocket. "Damn, only three left." And they were her favorite brand too, 'Lucky Harlot. Lighting the tip with a lighter, she slowly inhaled the nicotine smoke. Filling her lungs to the brim with it before letting out a heavy sigh. "Lets get through this",she grabbed her drumsticks since her beloved drum kit could not fit in the vehicle and needed to be transported another. She slid out of the car gracefully, wearing heavy black slacks adorned with many buckles and chains. A 'The Who' t-shirt adorned her chest but it was mostly obscured by her favorite jacket. Made entirely out of black leather, many metal spikes and chains adorned her shoulders and her arms, threatening to stab anyone that dared go near. She trudged into the building with a scowl, looking for her band mates. "Oy, there you are",she hissed, stomping over to the little group. "Give us warning before you shoot off chibi", even as she was poking the back of the young girl's head and scowling at her, it was obvious that she cared for her.......maybe. Her attention turned to the band in front of them,only noticing them men just now. "What are you looking at pretty boys?",she hissed, her eyes turning into slits and her voice sounding like venom.

"Pretty boys?" Saya giggled slightly in amusement at Fuyuki's comment, straightening her t-shirt over her bullet belt and black jeans and turning to smile at her fellow band mates before tilting her head at Mark Of Cain, "Maybe I like scaring them with me endless bounds of energy." She said before glancing back to Yuna who asked if she was trying to hurt herself, "I might just be trying to hurt myself." She said, looking like she might take off again at any moment until Aki showed up and she immediately seemed to shrink a little bit. Sayuri didn't dislike Aki, she just...was very intimidated by her, but still, she forced a grin none the less at her. Maybe with a bit of time, she'd warm up to Aki more.

Tukuro seemed to be growing more and more nervous until he saw the girl whip around the corner and nearly smash into the wall, blinking, "You okay?" He asked, unable to hide some of his amusement, "I've done that a few times." He chuckled, running his fingers through his rainbow mohawk and he couldn't help but look Fuyuki over - not in a bad, offensive way, but he did notice how pretty she was. How mysterious she appeared. It brought back his almost always-present grin that made him 'Chibi Boy' for life depite his multiple runic tattoos covering his body, "Nice to meet'cha! I'm Tukuro, but almost everyone calls me Tuk." He greeted cheerfully before blinking at the new girl who arrived, Aki.


Sayuri smiled at them all and skipped a step or so closer, bowing with her usual grin, her long blonde hair swayed and framed her face and large eyes, "I'm Sayuri." She said, straightening and looking at everyone before blinking in surprise and prodding Santa in the chest lightly, "Whoa, you're really tall." She said, looking up at him. He felt like a giant to Sayuri whom was barely five feet tall and probably around a hundred pounds. She looked at the male stating that they had in fact seen her make a dork out of hersel, "You're really tall too." She stated, willing herself to try and not note how attractive most of them were to her.

The scary, but still quite handsome, one with the bright voice greeted them first with a flirty smile which Fuyuki gave one in return. One of the boys, the lead singer, slapped with and commented on it, "You are not bringing the girls home with you, so don't even try" and then he greeted himself as Nova. Fuyuki gave out a laugh, somewhat loud but honest. "Don't worry, he won't but I can't say the same about it vice versa." She hoped they got the joke, the boys' facial expressions would be hilarious. Fuyuki's glasses were off and placed between her shirt, causing a slight sweetheart neckline. Hopefully, none of the boys would look but that wouldn't be what Fuyuki wanted.

Yuna came in soon enough, chasing after Sayuri and did what Sayuri had just done. She looked down, trying (and failing) to surpress a smile,"Tryin' to get yourself hurt, Sayu?" Her band was so childish and that's why she loved them.

"Just as much as you are," she said with a curteous smile. Then Aki came and almost ruined the whole feeling, almost. She would hiss and insult the boys, or anyone for that matter, but she did have a heart somewhere in her, "Oh, stop being so negative," she rolled her eyes playfully and lunged after Aki, pulling her into a playful hug. Oh, she would hate it but who would care? She wouldn't hurt her own band member would she? Of course not.

Sayuri greeted herself and commented how tall they all were, "They're all tall because you're so fun-sized, Sayu," she said before she let go of Aki and greeted herself.

"I'm Fuyuki, guitarist and Sayuri's the other guitarist," she gestured to her and Sayuri. She greeted the band members for them, "The lovely Yuna plays bass and Aki's the obvious drummer,"

She looked at each of the boys, she heard their music but she didn't love them enough to learn their names. She just learned Takuro's and Nova's. The uncaring smirk of confidence lingered as she looked back at her band mates, "So you've met us, we've heard your music and we have done our happy greetings. What's next on the list?"

Nova chuckled quietly and ran a hand through his hair, considering each of the girls one at a time, learning their names. He would need to have them memorized for later. He turned to look at the rest of his band.
"Alright," he murmured. "Do we want to hear the girls play before the show, or shoud we just take them backstage with us for a while?"

"Backsta-" Santa started, still watching the girls with a bright smile on his face.

"I did not ask you, Santa," Nova cut across him firmly.

Yuna could not help a laugh atht einteraction between the two boys. They were so comfortable together!
"Well girls?" she asked brightly. "What do we want to do? Should we show them what we can do or surprise them during the show?"

Sayuri looked amused, stepping away from Santa and brushing her pale hair back from her face and flitted back to Fuyuki's side like a woodland pixie of some sort - if you ignored her punk clothing, "I say we should surprise them!" She told the artistic looking guitarist and grinning, though she clearly kept her distance from the boys now. No way would she let them distract her from her goal, and without knowing it she suddenly had a determined poker face, looking like she was set out on a mission until the small brown body of a chihuahua bounded past them, between Nova's legs and running as fast as it's little legs could carry it, "Look a dog!" She said, like an excited child, her mission-poker face now gone.

Tukuro glanced at Nova and Santa, smirking slightly as Santa began saying he'd like to see them backstage, "Playaaa." He said, dragging out the last syllable playfully, prodding Nova's side, "Well, I suppose Nova's a player too." He said with a slight snicker, his eyes glittering with mischief. "I wonder what I am...perhaps I'm a nerd." He said, certainly not looking like one with his rainbow fauhawk and runic tattoos. He blinked when a small creature ran by them and underneath his singer, he couldn't tell if it was a rat or a cat...Wait, did she say dog? Sayuri looked like she was going to follow it.

Tsu just looked at everyone talking, yelling and probably even flirting silently, looking over at Santa, before shaking his head. Holding in his laugh, but it came out as a raspy sigh. He didn't mind seeing the girls play, see how good they were, but they would never be good as Mark Of Cain of course. "Nah, I would rather wait and be surprised at the show. I adore surprises." He gave a small playful grin to the girls. Then he looked down at a furry little creature on his leg, smiling politely while petting it. How did it get here anyway, did they leave the back door open or something. He thought as the dog jumped over his leg and continued running more farther into the building.

"I'm not being negative",Aki remarked, taking a deep drag of the nicotine stick. "I just want them to know the score." Her left eyebrow twitched slightly at the tall man's comment, her dark brown eyes narrowing into slits. "Try it pretty boy, you wont live long enough to tell the tale." Glancing back at Sayuri she gave a firm nod,"Perfect, can't wait to show them how real drumming his done",she chuckled, twirling her drumsticks in her leather incased hands. All her efforts would finally be rewarded. Practicing for days and nights on end until her hands would blister beyond belief and her fingers would freeze in place, they would not be wasted. She was finally an acomplished drummer and she was going to show these boys what real music sounded like. During her silent revery, a small brown dog popped out of no where and ran in between her open legs. A sharp and oddly girlish 'eep' left her lips at the unexpected sensation. "The hell!?",she yelled, a faint pink blush donning her cheeks as she watched the dog scamper off happily."Don't follow it brat!",the tomboy yelled sharply at Sayuri, still slightly embarassed by the sound that had come out of her mouth

"We should wait until the concert," Fuyuki agreed, "I love surprises," Fuyuki smirked, as she brushed her hair to the side of her face. "We're not all here yet anyways," Then something bursted onto the scene. Something small ran past one of the bishonen's legs. Was that a dog? "Oh my god, what is a dog doing here?" Fuyuki wondered aloud as it ran from them. She placed a hand on Sayuri's shoulder as if to say she warned her not to follow it, "Is that your dog?" she asked the boy band.

"Don't follow it, Sayu," Fuyuki smiled, "It might have fleas,"
