Realistic or Modern Rush (Lets start a band)

[HorizonBringer]

Nore tapped her boot in mild irritation, tapping on the body of her macbre guitar with long dark blue nails, waiting to start. She didnt have a whole lot of patience.

Kai pulled out his notebook and started writing lyrics it was clear that the first practice should've been more of an icebreaker than an actual rehearsal. "Maybe we should just practice tomorrow." He put his long white hair in a ponytail showing off his chiseled jawbone. "Hey.. Nore, can you stay a little late? I wanted to ask you some questions."

 

[HorizonBringer]

Nore paused, "I think my brother, Ollie is outside, waiting for me to get done. But Yea, he can wait longer, he didn't have to show up." She said shrugging, she then began plucking at the strings of her guitar, after a while this would show to be a nervous tic.

 

[AlmighTy]

Kai packed his guitar and looked at Nore "When you're ready meet me upstairs." He pointed to the staircase. Kai lived in this building but his room looked like a completely different building. Kai smiled at his other bandmates "Same time tomorrow we have two new songs to practice plus the one we didn't get through today."

What upstairs looks like

"Irina, nice to meet you." He smiled then noticed her slight disappointment "Hey... If you want you can hang back with me and Nore I wanted to go over something I was working with her.. Then we can play catch up with you." Kai hated disappointing people so he felt it was only right to invite her.

Cocoa peeled the sticky note off of her clipboard and folded it away into her pocket. It seemed one task had been taken off of her hands. Maybe she should actually find some papers for the thing to hold. She'd only brought it to look more professional. She took notes of all the band members' names. Tonight she would do some digging, maybe stop by some of the places in the binder to see what they're all about. Speaking of what everyone is about...

"Before you go," she said, her tone sounding something more official than before, "I suggest you all start thinking about your stage personas. Nore here is fine just the way she is, but the rest of you could use a makeover. You have to look like a unit, and you have to look like the music you're playing. At least when you're performing."

She scribbled something on her clipboard. "I'll bring some cosmetics and clothes for you all to try on tomorrow. Think of it as...costumes, if you have to."

 

[HorizonBringer]

Nore packed up her guitar and followed Kai upstairs. She hummed softly, it was the tune to "Throne" by Bring Me The Horizon. She wasn't one hundred percent sure what Kai was talking about, but she was sure he would jog her memory, she smiled at Coco, "Thank ya kindly love, I work really hard on my image" she flourished her hands down her sides in a flashy manor with a soft chuckle.

"I'm sure your not, I just remember you from the news. You had some big heart break with your fiancé or something." . I nodded at Adam's response remembering what happened with her and her ex 6 months ago. He cheated on her and that was the end of it when she learned that her ex was only in for the money and the fame and nothing more. "Maybe we should just practice tomorrow.". she turned around when she heard Kai say that and maybe it was best to leave it in tomorrow and we could practice the next two songs.

"Alright see you tomorrow", I hopped off the stage and went over to where her things were and starts packing away her guitar and her sheet music. While packing her things she heard a voice of her manager and a girl coming in as well. She heard her name, Irina. She had short ginger hair and a nice outfit on that she thought she looked cute. "I suggest you all start thinking about your stage personas. Nore here is fine just the way she is, but the rest of you could use a makeover. You have to look like a unit, and you have to look like the music you're playing. At least when you're performing.". When she heard that the first thing that went through her mind was 'makeover' and 'stage personas'. "I'll bring some cosmetics and clothes for you all to try on tomorrow. Think of it as...costumes, if you have to.". I nodded at her and she knew she couldn't say anything but what could she say at the end of the day that is her boss. "That sounds great, I was about to hit the cafe not so far from here if you guys want to join your more than welcomed". She says while putting her guitar on her back seeing if anyone was going to tag along.

"Frick frick frick! I'm gonna be so late!" the redhead mumbled frantically to herself. She had forgotten about the rehearsel for the band and she slept in late like she usually did in the afternoon. She saw the ad online and saw it as her big chance. Irina had been going to college and majoring in Economics. She had all her classes early in the day and usually slept through the afternoon. She was a drummer, but it had always been a hobby for her. However, she really wanted to make it into her career.

Her parents, who were rather serious business people, thought she was being too idealistic. They thought she could never be a drummer alone and the people in the big bands only got lucky. Irina wanted so badly to prove them wrong and show them that she could do it, and not with luck, but with determination and strength. She had the talent and the drive, so what made her so different from other successful drummers, making millions a year? If they could do it, then she could do it too.

Irina started her car and drove to the venue where they were supposed to meet up. She parked her car at the side of the road and walked inside. It was dim except for the multicolored strobe lights hanging on top of the stage. She looked at the 5-piece set that was at the stage and she nodded approvingly. Irina spotted the group and made her way towards them.

She suddenly heard Kai say they were starting tomorrow and she frowned a bit. She really was too late. However, she made her way towards him calmly. "Hi. I'm Irina. I saw your ad and I'm here for the drummer role," she said pleasantly with a small smile, holding her sticks in her hands.

Adam was the first to give a sigh of relief as Kai ushered the word tomorrow.
"Oh, thank god." he quickly packed up his guitar, leaving the sheet music on the stool where he was looking at it. He noticed the new girl that came into the hall and introduced her self to Kai. He wanted to walk over and strike up a conversation, but his attention was torn away by Gig who was just about to leave for the Cafe. "Hey wait up! I'll come." he yelled out, hoping she would wait.

“Wait hold up I’ll come”, she heard as she was about to wall out the door. She turned around and realized it was Adam rushing to pack his things and get out of there asap. Gigi smiled and says “Yea alright if anyone would like to join us we will be around the corner it’s not that far”. She looked at her phone after ot was flashing and it was a text message from her father to meet him up for dinner and she knew that to her dinner met about the bussiness that she don’t want to take over. She had a step brother and she always asked herself why can’t he just take over the company and more reason is because he wants his first child to be in charge but it was just a waste lf time. Her passion was music not bussiness thats why he sent his son to bussiness school for a reason but all well what can she do right?

 

[Shabazz]

Nobody else seemed interested, so Adam followed Giselle alone to the cafe. It was a quiet little spot, only four people inside: one barista, another staff cleaning the tables, an old man looking out the window as he drank his coffee and another lady by the door who was busy typing away on her laptop.

"Hi, what can I getcha?" the barista asked Adam, clearly happy to have any customers at all.
"Oh, I'll just get a cup of water, thanks."
"And for your girlfriend?" She asked, Adam didn't bother correcting her. He just turned to Gigi and gave her a smug look.

While Adam and Giselle was walking to the cafe which wasn't so far she noticed the little spot didn't have much people today which was a good thing because long lines wasn't her thing when she wanted a cup of coffee. She noticed the old man and the lady who was typing like her life depends on it, it all reminded her of how she used to be while studying for college and dealing with her ex problems but she is over everyhting and ready to move on with her life and do what she loves to do whichw as music.

"Hi, what can I getcha?" the barista asked Adam as I was right next to him as he ordered his drink. "Oh, I'll just get a cup of water, thanks.", she heard him respond and that's when she thought he wasn't really a coffee person, but at least she is getting to know him better. "And for your girlfriend?", she was knocked out of her thoughts when the barista said 'girlfriend'. She saw the smug look Adam make and he didn't even correct her because she didn't care at the end of the day. "Can I just get a caramel latte", she asked the barista and when she told us the price she looked at Adam and says "Do you want me to pay for it, it's not really a big deal?", she said about to go in her little bag to pull out her wallet.

 

[Shabazz]

"Okay, princess." Adam joked. The barista handed him his water "Thank you." He turned back to Giselle. "You know, I'm not really much of a coffee guy, tastes kinda gross. You wanna sit down or are you in a rush to meet the President?" he motioned to a newley cleaned table nearby.

Jacob​

"Damn I'm late, I guess the old guy is gonna have to wait for 15 minutes." The busy musician scout was headed down the dirty street towards his office building. Jacob was usually late for meetings, for he found them pointless and unnecessary. As his polished black suede's hit the concrete of the sidewalk, a loud click could be heard. Suddenly, the clicking noise stopped. As Jacob looked down to see what was stopping the noise of his left shoe, he struck an angry face as he noticed there was gum on his new shoes.
In a rage, he ripped a poster off the closest light pole next to him and began ripping it. "Damn this city! Can't you clean up for once?" As he turned his head back towards the pole, he saw a poster for band rehearsals being held soon. "Well, at least I know who I'm checking out next." He then pulled out his phone and put in a note for the rehearsal.

After paying for her coffee and whatever she needed and she rolled her eyes playfully at Adam's joke when he called her a princess. "You know, I'm not really much of a coffee guy, tastes kinda gross. You wanna sit down or are you in a rush to meet the President?". She was in shock when he said coffee tastes kinda gross, that broke her heart when she heard that. Coffee is the best thing she loves so much and she just enjoys it all the time when she has time to just by it. When the barista gave her her coffee she wasn't in any rush at the moment so she followed Adam to the clean table and putting her things right next to her as she took a slip of the latte.

( Queen_Liyah idk what the others are doing so I guess we're just having our little moment in the spotlight )

"So what made you want to become a singer? I feel like you have to really love it to get out of the whole 'family business' thing."

"So what made you want to become a singer? I feel like you have to really love it to get out of the whole 'family business' thing.", she heard Adam say to her while sleeping her coffee. "That's a good question, why become a singer when you can take over a family business and make millions". Gigi paused for a second and adds "When I used to live in Australia, my mum would always sing to me during the day and when I would help her out in the bakery she had own. I wanted to be just like her and sing like her, her singing inspired me to make my mum happy. So after my father's divorce with my mother he wanted me to come to America with him and as much I didn't want to leave my mother all alone in Australia, she pushed me to go to America and do what I always wanted to do and that was become a singer."

Fwd to the next day.

Kai sends out a text message to the band saying "Hey... Sorry, I can't make to any more band practices. I got scouted for my music writing abilities so I'll be traveling around the world for a while. Dont worry I found a replacement for the time being, His name is Jasper Green.He's going to be great when he auditioned I just knew I was leaving you guys in good hands. I'll send you guys one song a week and I put my keys in the mailbox so feel free to rehearse there anytime. I bought the building with my bonus check so don't worry anybody nagging tell them you know the owner. Also, it would be great if someone could move into the apartment upstairs I had renovated."

 

[Alpha_Tortoise]

Jasper had awoken, somewhat tired and groggy, the sun had beamed through the tall oblong glass shining down upon the dark spruce flooring, he had wondered if Kai had ever got back to him about the audition before prepping himself for the long day to come.. He had grabbed his phone somewhat impatiently reading out the text Kai had sent earlier in the morning. An awkward smile had formed upon his face, as he stretched out his arms somewhat happier than usual.

He took a long sigh, before picking up his guitar and making his way out in town to arrive at the area Kai had specified.
All he could hope for is that the group he'd be practising with would pertain the same sort of passion and skill he had sought after in a group of musicians. In time, he had arrived outside the building, standing tall and prepared for what was to come.
