///////////////////////////////////////////////
I sighed in boredom as I was laying down on the couch in the lounge area of the company building. Papers were piled up on the floor near me and my pencil was long forgotten on the coffee table nearby as well. I was supposed to write a new song, a more upbeat song since the last song we preformed wasn't taken well. I sighed again as nothing came to mind, I couldn't think of anything upbeat. All I could think about is that damn-
"Yo Alpha you okay? You're swimming in a pile of papers." Shaka said, walking from the kitchen. She set a cup down on the coffee table before grabbing some papers from the humongous pile. "Got nothing I presume?"
"Writing is hard okay?" I grabbed the cup and took a swig, letting the liquid flow down my throat in hopes of being caffeinated. "I can't think of anything upbeat!"
"Yeah it shows, most of these lyrics are the same as the songs you first started your career with. Did something happen?" Shaka asked, concern swimming in her red eyes.
"I'm fine, I'm just used to making depressing songs I guess."
"Then you need to try to get out of your comfort zone."
"I've been trying! It's just," I paused, thinking over the words flowing through my head. 'It's just hard when I see his face almost everywhere in this city. No matter where I look, his face can always be seen on something. Not to mention I've been feeling sad all day.' I felt arms wrap around me, holding me in a tight hug. When I realized it was Shaka, I hugged back.
"It's okay, I know you don't really wanna talk about the source of your songs. But just know I'm here for you, always." I smiled at her words, feeling her rub my back and her chin on my head. She eventually pulled away, reluctantly it seemed. "I think I know a way to help." I look at her as a way to continue.
"Why don't you visit your aunt? I'm sure she can help you with your funk. If not then at least not staying here would most likely help." She suggested, she got up and started to collect all the papers.
"I don't know, I don't want to bother-"
"She's your aunt, from what I've seen, you'll never be a bother to her. She cares about you too much." Shaka interrupted me, placing all the papers in waste bin.
"But-"
"Just trust me, now let's get you out of those dirty clothes. I have the perfect thing for you!" Before I could resist, she dragged me to her room and handed me an outfit. "Change into that, I'll grab the extension from your room."
"Wait! Why do I have to wear this?" I asked, not really wanting to wear the girly clothing.
"Well we wouldn't want your fans to surround you all day right? Even though we debut with you as 'Omega', she's not really popular since a bunch of your fans more see her a 'back-up-Alpha'." She explained as she grabbed her phone to show me the comments on our debut concert.
"Harsh, but I see what your saying." A thought crossed my mind that made me grow nervous. 'If I do visit Auntie, then I'll definitely be recognized by Rom. I was lucky back then on our debut that he didn't realize it was me, he probably had something on his mind...' I looked down at the clothes, they almost looked like what my old 'friends' gifted me, though they don't seem to show as much skin as the outfits they gave me. I changed into it anyway, knowing Shaka would just force me into it if I didn't. I was surprised by how comfy they were, thanking Shaka at how she knows what I usually like in an outfit, besides the girliness.
As I finished putting the shoes on, Shaka came back with the hair extensions that I used on our debut concert. She helped me putting them on and styled my hair into a loose ponytail, completing my look. "Alright that should do it! You look good, I mean you always look good Alph-Omega." She complimented. I nodded and grabbed my phone from the pants I was wearing, along with my wallet and dorm keys.
"I'll see you later then, by the way, what day is it?" I asked as I opened the front door.
"It's the (day) of (month)."[1] Shaka answered, sitting on her bed with her guitar.
'Ah, that's why I've feeling a bit depressed today.' I thought as I thanked Shaka and walked out of her room. I sighed, heading out of the building. As I got out I covered my eyes from the harsh sun shining down on the city. My feet started to move towards the restaurant/agency Auntie works at. As I walked I kept my eyes on the ground, not want to see his face on the various buildings in Midi City. On the way I passed by a ramen shop, my stomach growling from the smell. 'Oh right, I haven't eaten today yet. I only drank coffee. I guess it wouldn't hurt to have a bite, especially with that delectable smell.'
I stepped into the shop and the chef welcomed me. "Welcome! Take any seat you want!" From the way he greeted me, he seemed surprised that I entered. I shrugged it off though and took a seat in a booth by a corner. The chef walked over towards me. "What can I get'cha?"
"I'll take a simple (mild/spicy/extra spicy) ramen bowl." I ordered, looking around the place.
"All right, coming right up!" He left to make my order as I continued to look around. I noticed some familiar figures sitting on the bar stools, ShinganCrimsonZ. I started to slightly panic realizing it was them, especially since Rom was there. Minutes later the chef brought my food to me, I thanked him and started eating. As I ate, I watched whatever the tv across the room was showing to my mind off of the band. The tv showed what seemed to be a Baiganba V show, I thought they only did live shows?
"Hey what's wrong? You're staring at that girl..." My wolf ears perk up and I look around to see who said that. Eventually I make eye contact with the drummer of ShiganCrimsonZ, Rom. I flinched from his harsh stare, afraid of being recognized. Luckily I had just finished eating, so I put the money on the table and stood up. As I walked past them I hear Rom mutter my real name under his breath. Fear had struck me that I took off running out the door.
As I ran through the city, I could hear another set of footsteps running. I knew it was Rom and I wished he would give up, but I knew that wasn't gonna happen. I continued to run, bumping to people as I went through a large crowd. I hear Rom shout for me, possibly meaning that he lost me. I don't stop though, I continue to run until I ran straight into someone's chest. I look up to meet eyes with Rom. 'But how? I thought I lost him in that crowd.'
"I know a lot more about the routes in this city than your do, (Y/n)." Rom said, seeming to have read my confused expression. "Where have you been? You disappeared after-"
"I have nothing to say to you, just forget you saw me." I interrupt him, struggling out the hold he had on me. I never noticed he had hugged me when I ran into him. "Let me go!"
His grip got tighter as I continued to struggle. "I'm not letting go! Tell me where you had been."
"I told you! I have nothing-!"
"Don't you dare tell me that! Just because of what he did you can't just shut me out like-!"
"Shut up!" I shout at him, managing my way out of his arms. "You know what he did! He left you guys and me! He didn't even tell me he was going to leave! He was gonna let me be oblivious to everything! I had a right to know!" As I shout at him I felt tears run down my face. "He could've told me we were over because of a selfish desicion he made!"
"But you didn't have to disappear like that!"
"I had to leave! You guys were gonna remind me too much of him! I-I had to, I couldn't stand being in a place that only had memories of him." I feel arms wrap around me, but I push him away. "Just forget you saw me, please. In fact just forget about me all together."
"You just want me to forget about you!? What kind of stupid request is that!? Like hell I'm gonna forget about you! I'm never gonna forget about you! You're-" He paused, seeming to not want to say that sentence anymore. I was curious, but I didn't care.
I turned away from him, wiping away the tears that had yet to fall. "Then I'll have to hide even better then." I said, a bitter smile on my face as I started to walk away from him.
"Wait!" I hear him attempt to follow me, causing me to take off into another run. "Damnit wait! (Y/n)!" I run faster, attempting to lose him in another large crowd. "(Y/n)!" I heard Rom continued to yell as I lose him in a very large crowd of females. I blend in as he passed by the crowd, yelling my name non stop. I sigh in relief when his voice started to fade away, the crowd of females becoming louder as a very long limousine had finally stopped. I looked to see Trichronika step out, causing the other females around me to scream louder at the three males.
Shu☆zo was saying something but I couldn't hear him due to the screaming. He and the twins started to walk, I wasn't sure where they were going and I didn't care. They seemed to head towards my general direction so I waited for them to pass so I could go back to my dorm room. As they passed I looked at Shu☆zo, wondering why his smile seemed fake. Then suddenly he turned his head and we made eye contact. He stopped for a second, something is his eyes swirling that I couldn't recognize. Soon he was back to normal when the twins came up to me.
"Hey you're from Voice! Alpha's twin sister, Omega, yeah?" Kai asked. I nodded, giving a small smile.
"Yes, I'm Omega. It's very nice to meet you." I said as politely as someone who was crying minutes ago could.
"I'm Kai and this is Riku, though I bet you knew already!" He said cheerfully, smiling with his brother at me. I smiled back of course. "So what are you doing?"
"Oh, I'm just exploring the city. I've never been to such a big city before." I replied, lying about my reasons. They then asked me about how my 'twin brother' Alpha was doing. "Oh he's doing fine, he's been mostly staying in his dorm room writing songs."
"Ah I see! Well-"
"Kai, Riku." Shu☆zo interrupts, putting hands on their shoulders. "We must be going."
"Right!" The two replied, following the blonde. Kai turned back to me and shouted. "When we finish with work and still see you walking around, we'll show you around the city!" I smiled, nodding my head. I could see Shu☆zo looking at me again and I harshly glanced back, turning my head the opposite way and walked aimlessly through the city.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Thank you." I thanked the man behind the ice cream stand and sat at a bench to enjoy the frozen creamy treat. After wandering around I eventually found this park, it seemed to be slightly private due to the fence surrounding the area. But from what I can see the public can enter, but only until a specific time on specific days. I didn't mind it though, the place was beautiful. I could see many other myumons enjoying the lovely park, smiling and laughing along. Suddenly my phone started to ring, I looked to see it was Shaka.
"Yo." I said as I answered the call.
"Hey dude! So how's it going? See your aunt?" She asked.
"No, I...ran into someone." I replied, thinking about my next words. "Someone who knew me before I joined voice."
"Ah, I get'cha. Anyway, I was just checking on you. Making sure no one tried hitting on you or something like that." I laughed, shaking my head at how Shaka was being like an over protective big sister.
"No, no has hit on me yet. If someone did we both know I would walk away soon after. Otherwise you would somehow appear put of nowhere, I swear you have some kind of six sense on my love life." We both laughed, as we did I didn't notice something heading my way until it hit me in the face. I dropped my ice cream and phone as I got hit. "Ow!"
"Ah I'm sorry!" I opened my eyes to see two little boys with light blue hair running my way. Both of them had horns and horse like ears so I only guessed they were unicorns. "Please forgive me miss!"
"It's fine, we all make mistakes. Just be careful next." I say as I used the napkins I grabbed earlier to wipe down my top. "Ugh, I hope Shaka won't kill me over this."
"I'm sorry." The smaller one of the little unicorns said, looking down in shame.
"Hey, it's fine. I'm not upset." I smiled at them. "Now run along back to your parents." They suddenly had a worse expression, one of them close to tears. "Hey what's wrong?" I asked them, lowering to my knees.
"Mama and Papa aren't with us."
"Oh? Where are they?" They hesitated in answering, I assumed the worst until they muttered something about work. I sighed in relief. "Well do you have an older sibling?"
"Yeah. He's working also." I frowned, is no one watching these kids? They seemed a bit upset as well. "But we know how to take care of ourselves miss! Besides Onii-chan will pick us up when he finishes work!" I smiled as they tried to reassure me.
"I see, how about I play with you two until he comes?" Their faces lit up and nodded, causing me to laugh at how cute they were. "Alright, let me grab my phone." I picked it up to see Shaka still in the call. I gestured the two that I'll take a second on the phone. "Hey, sorry about that. Something just happen, I'm fine don't worry. I'll call back to tell you what happened."
"Alright, but you better give me every detail on what happened." She replied.
"Got it, bye." I ended the call and turned to the two. "Now what are we gonna do?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After finding out their names were Nickel and Balt, we ended playing many things. They were so energetic I had sometimes had trouble keeping up. Right now we were playing knights, I was playing the kidnapped princess.
"Help me Sir Balt!" I cried in a fake helpless voice. I couldn't stop smiling at how cute the two were when playing.
"I'll save you Princess!" Balt exclaimed, causing Nickel to laugh.
"You'll never save her! She'll be mine and I can take over the kingdom!" Nickel shouted in his best evil voice.
'God damnit they're so cute! Ah!' I screamed in my head, my one weakness is cuteness. The two then started to 'fight' with swords that were actually sticks they found on the ground. As I watched I noticed someone walking towards the three of us, they seemed to have a horn like Nickel and Balt.
"Nickel! Balt!" The person yelled, they seemed to be male. It was their older brother.
"Onii-chan!" The two exclaimed, dropping their sticks to run to the male. The two managed to tackle hug the older male. I smiled at how adorable this was.
"Did you two have fun?" He asked the two, they nodded vigorously.
"Yeah! A pretty lady played with us, she even gave us ice cream!" The older male raised an eyebrow. I stood up and walked over to them.
"Hello."
"So you played with my brothers?" He asked, his smile turning into a neutral face when he faced me. I smiled politely nodding.
"Yes, I noticed they were by themselves so I decided to stay with them until you showed up. Someone has to watch." I mumbled the last but I guess he heard me when he glared at me.
"Well I thank you, I do get worried when they're by themselves." The two little let out a whine and started to tackle him again, causing a smile to appear once again.
"No worries, if I had little siblings I would hope someone would watch and play with them if I couldn't." He nodded and turned to the two. Getting a closer look at him I realized he looked familiar. The two little started to rant about what we did throughout the two hours.
"That sounds nice, we must head home though." The two whined again.
"But we want to play with Miss Omega more!" Balt complained.
"Yeah! We never get to play knights!" Nickel added.
I smiled at them as they begged the older unicorn if they could play more with me. I lowered myself to my knees to make eye contact with them. "I think your brother might be tired, you should go home. Don't worry though, I'll be here almost every day that the public can enter this park. How does that sound?" They smiled and nodded their heads. "All right then! I'll see you cuties soon then!" I ruffled their hair and stood up, they soon left after that. I decided that now would be a good time to head back.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So that's what happened, huh?" Shaka said as she grabbed the outfit I had been wearing all day off the floor.
"Yep."
"Well guess you'll need more outfits so you can play with those little ones." I glared at the teasing tone she had. "Though that guy you described sounds familiar."
"Right? I've been thinking that myself, I swear I've seen him someone before." I kept on thinking where I could've seen the male unicorn when a commercial can on Shaka's tv. It showed the band Arcareafact, that's when I see the male. "That's him! The singer and pianist of Arcareafact! That's where I've seen him from, all the advertisements for the band!"
"Wait you serious!? Man, what's with you running into famous people? You're crazy lucky or something."
"I wouldn't say that." I muttered under my breath. Suddenly the door was knocked, Shaka opened it to see Akio.
"Hey, is Alpha in there?" He asked.
"Yo dude, what's up?"
"Well I needed everyone in Voice to know that you'll be getting your first interview!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hello everyone, I am Tokiko Shirosugawa. And today with me is the new upcoming band Voice!" I smile at the camera, slightly freaking out in my head.
"Hiya! I'm Alpha, the leader and singer of the band!" I introduced myself, waving with a wink.
"My, what a dashing young man!" Tokiko swooned, causing me to sweatdrop.
"Names Shakaku, but you all can just call me Shaka! I'm the guitarist of the band!"
"Sup! I'm Akane, the awesome drummer!"
"My name's Ai! I'm the keyboard slash pianist of Voice!"
"But aren't those the same thing?" Tokiko asked Ai.
"Well kind of except for some things. Some songs require a piano instead of a keyboard, since my keyboard is mostly for the more pop electric music we do." Ai explained. Tokiko nodded, prompting the rest to introduce themselves.
"I-I'm Chouko, the v-violinist of Voice."
"And I'm Takeshi, the bassist for the band."
"Ah what lovely young people! I have over heard that your singer has a twin that sings as well, pray tell why she isn't here?" The woman asked, I froze for second.
"Ah w-well you see," I paused, still not know what to fully say. "Uh she's kind of an unofficial member of the band, she'll sing for me when I'm not in nest conditions." I finally said.
"I see! What a kind sister!" Tokiko praised, not really knowing it was actually me she was praising. "Now I also heard that you two used to sing on the internet, no?"
"Yeah, that's true." I replied, trying my best to smile. 'Why am I getting all the questions?'
"Well then, in that case I want to ask one more question before we go to break." She said, her voice taking a slightly more serious tone. "So what's the deal with your songs?"
"Huh?"
"Well all of your songs are very sad and it's very obvious to assume that something happened in the past. You also seem to still be hung over it based upon your most recent songs. So what's up with that?" She started. "Did you get your heart broken? Did a family member die? There has to be something for all those sad songs."
I sighed, of course I was asked that. I'm not an idiot, I've seen the discussions and theories online as to why all my songs are depressing. I just sat there, I wasn't going to say anything but it's obvious the studio wanted me to answer. I sighed as I finally spoke up. "Well yes there's a story as to why I wrote those songs. While I know you want the juicy details, that's not gonna happen. All you need to know is that someone I trusted the most, the first person to accept me for who I was, left without saying goodbye. And I just can't seem to forget about them. No matter how hard I try, they're always on my mind."
"I see, well we need to get to commercial. So we'll be back right after the break." Tokiko then hopped off her chair and walked to who knows where. I released a breath I didn't know I was holding and rested my head on Shaka's shoulder.
"Why did I get all the questions?" I whined.
"Aw come on! It wasn't that bad, though it would be nice to be asked something. I would love to tell them about my tribe and goddess!" Shaka smiled.
"Like they're gonna ask about some stupid desert people."
"You want me to hit you Akane?" She threatened the fellow red head.
"No Ma'am." Akane squeaked, hiding behind his twin.
"Thought so." Tokiko then walked back and hopped into her chair.
"Okay live in five seconds!" Someone of the crew shouted, placing his fingers up to count down. Once time was up Tokiko welcomed back the audience and turned to us.
"Since we have enough time for one more question, I wanna know. Alpha, are you and Omega dating anyone?"
We all blinked at the question. "Um, c-could you repeat that?"
"Do none of you know!? Why it's on tons of forums! People have been asking about you or her having an ex! I mean from your songs it's obvious, but what you have said confirms it!"
'Are you fucking kidding me right now?!' I screamed in my head, I wanted to just walk away. But I didn't, I took a breath to calm myself and answered. "Look, I don't want to answer that for many reasons. One being that if I said their name, I know several people who I don't want to see will come find me."
"Oh? Is she an idol?" Tokiko pushed.
"I am not-"
"Are you worried about ruining her career? Or yours?"
"I honestly could care less about his-"
"Maybe you two are still dating! A secret love affair hidden from the eyes of her fans!"
"Can I-"
"Oh Alpha! You must tell us all her name! You have no reason to hide-"
"I'm not dating anyone!" There was silence for a few minutes, the crew were staring at me in shock. I felt a hand on my shoulder, squeezing to calm me down. I took deep breaths until I sighed and bowed. "I deeply apologize for my outburst, I just can't handle being questioned about my past. It's something I still need to get over, when I do I might be able to answer your questions."
"N-no, it's alright. I understand." Tokiko stuttered, nervous sweat clearly flowing down her forehead. She coughed then faced the camera. "Well that's enough time for today, tune in next time for our special event! The Summer Beach Bash! Voice, I wish you luck in the event!" The filming stops and the crew start to wrap everything up.
"Hey Alpha, you okay there?" Takeshi asked, putting his green jacket back on. I nodded and put my head in my hands.
"Ugh, I messed it up. Sorry guys."
"D-don't be. You were j-just getting anxious over the barrage of questions." Chouko reassured me, giving me a shy hug for a quick second. "I know that would make me feel uncomfortable as well."
"Let's change topic, I wonder what Tokiko meant by The Summer Beach Bash?" Shaka said, scratching behind her fox ear.
"You don't know?!" Ai exclaimed. "It's an event that takes place during late summer. Selected bands go against each other in various beach games to win a prize."
"What's the prize?" I asked.
"I'm not sure, they change it every year." She explained. "Last year was over a hundred million sound dollars!"
"Holy shit, really!? I though it was only that weird looking trophy."
"Language." Shaka warned Akane.
"No Onii-chan! You really don't pay attention do you?"
"I do!"
"To the girl bands maybe." Takeshi replied, pushing his glasses up. Everyone but Akane laughed, causing the male twin to pout and cross his arms.
"You guys are mean!"
"You love us anyway!" Ai laughed, jumping onto her twin. I smiled as I watched the other five interact, grateful I said yes all those years ago to the once homeless runaways.
////////////////////////////////////////////
Finally done!
I actually got an updated reference of your bandmates!

From left to right is Takeshi, Chouko, Shakaku, Akane and Ai!
I didn't draw Alpha because you get to imagine what she looks like. Though I might draw how I designed her for the next chapter.
Also I wanted to say how disappointed I was on there being no UR card template for OCs, I had to created my own one. Wah! I had to do more work. *sighs* Whatever, I'll have to do that for SSRs as well since I want to do those.
Maybe I could make a blog for this fan made band I've had for a couple of years....hmm.....
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the extra long chapter! I'll seeya guys later, have some random facts on my characters if you care enough to read!
-Akane was originally a girl before I decided to change him so the genders would be an "even split"
-If your wondering, yes Shaka is gay for Alpha. She isn't a love interest but I wanted to keep that part of her in the story
-Takeshi learned how to play the bass from his older brother whose in college
-Chouko is obviously shy, but the reason is because she was yelled at by her father when he was drunk. Causing to being afraid to make people upset, so she would barely. This of course backfires on multiple occasions
-Akane and Ai wearing a chain necklace with a violet gem is a symbol of their family, they did run away but still love their parents
Edit- I changed the Beach Bash from Late Summer to Spring Break since that's when I'll release the next chapter!!
