Band AU/Songfic. I have mixed emotions on these band AUs but something possessed me to write one. So this is going mainly going to be SoMa, but it shall have hints of KiMa, TsuStar, BlairxSoul, KidxLiz and another couple I cannot say or it will spoil some things ;). I make no promises on how often this will updated, but I will try to do itas much as possible. I am truly, madly, deeply sorry if there are any grammatical errors or if the characters are OOC. Enjoy
Disclaimer: I do not own any songs used in this story, nor do I own Soul Eater.
…Soul "Eater" Evans…
"That was the fifth audition we have had in the past month, and we still don't have a female singer," said Liz, one of my band mates. I personally didn't think we need another vocalist, considering the fact that we have me, but our manager, Stein, says otherwise. So we have been hosting auditions all around the Death City area trying to find a girl to sing in our band. We have had no luck. I said to our manager, "Do we have to find a chick singer? We are doing just fine without one, and it's not too late to cancel auditions."
"Soul, I know you don't want another member in the band, but having a female vocalist will boost your popularity," Stein replied unenthusiastically. I groaned in annoyance at his response. Liz chimed in, "You know what? Today has been stressful, so let's go to a club and party our asses off!"
BlackStar, our drummer, and Patty, one of our guitarists and Liz's younger sister, cheered at Liz's idea; those two always wanted to party. Our two other members, Tsubaki and Death the Kid, just kind of nodded. I shrugged. BlackStar yelled out, "YAHOO! To the club!"
…
Not long after making our decision to party, we went to a night club. We all just nodded at the bouncer since we have a pretty good reputation going, so we didn't even need to stand in line. When we were inside, we mostly went our separate ways. Kid and I went and sat at the bar, Liz and Patty started dancing on the dance floor, BlackStar started trying to impress chicks, and Tsubaki was one of the women he attempted to impress. I turned to Kid, "Did you really want to come here?"
"No, I'm not one to go to clubs and party like the rest of you. What about you? Won't Blair go berserk whenever she finds out you went somewhere where you were surrounded by scantily clad women?" Kid replied. I sighed at the mentioned of my girlfriend, Blair. I didn't hate her or anything, but she was one to overreact about every little thing. I responded to my symmetry obsessed friend, "Yeah, yeah she is. I wasn't too enthusiastic about coming here either, but even if we said no, they were gonna drag us here. So what was the point of putting up a fight?"
Before my friend could reply, we were interrupted. "What can I get you two to drink?" said a blonde haired bartender. Unlike most the women that worked at the night club, she wasn't dressed scantily. She had her blonde hair tied up in pigtails, a black t-shirt with the club's logo on it and it was tied with a ponytail holder on the side most likely because it was too big, and from what I could tell, just a normal pair of skinny jeans. She was actually kind of cute, but not my type. Plus, I have a girlfriend, and cheating isn't cool. Kid, however, seemed rather fond of her. I nonchalantly replied to the bartender, "I'll have a Caribou Lou."
"I'll just have water," the bassist told her. She smiled and began to grab various bottles of the shelf. As she prepared my drink, she was singing. It actually didn't sound bad. I turned to look at Kid and he whispered, "You can hear her too, right?"
"Kiddo, I think we just found our new vocalist."
"Don't call me that."'
"Here's a Caribou Lou and water. Call me over if you need anything," the green eyed bartender said as she placed two drinks in front of Kid and me. She started to walk away, but Kid addressed her before she could leave, "Uh, Miss, were you just singing not too long ago?"
"Yes?" she replied with a confused look. I spoke up before Kid could respond, "Could you do it again?"
"Uh, sure? Anything in particular you want me to sing?" she asked us. Once we both shook our heads in response, she took a deep breath before singing,
"I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we are riding side by side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself"
"Happy now?" she asked before starting to walk off. I had never heard the song before and it sounded kind of bubbly for our usual type of music. One of her coworkers stopped her, "Maka, did I just hear you singing?"
"Free, shut up. You hear me singing pretty much every time you are at work."
"Yeah, but never for anyone."
"Well, according to Papa, we are supposed to make the customers happy while they are here, and I sing all the time for people here!"
"Oh, really now, how about you go up on stage and sing then. I can handle the bar by myself."
"Fine then I will!" The girl whom he had called Maka stormed off to go on stage. The man, who I believe was named Free, turned to us and said, "I know you two are in the band Soul Resonance, and are looking for a female singer. I can tell you right now, Maka is the girl you need. I think she has listened to your band before, but she focuses on work way too much so that's probably why she didn't recognize you guys."
"Why do you think she'd be good for our band?" Kid questioned him. Free laughed, "Maka is really ambitious, once she sets her mind on something it will happen. She loves to sing and write music, and she's good at both of them too, so if you can convince her to join, you won't regret it."
"Anything else you can tell us?"
"If want to know anymore, you will have to ask her. The rest is not my place to tell."
Before I could get a word in, Maka was speaking into a microphone on stage. She announced, "Hello, Boozy Call!"
The club cheered as if that was their way of saying hello.
"Well, those of you who are a regular here should know that I sing for you all, all the time. Free, the man over there with the tattoo above his eye wearing the tight black shirt," she pointed to him, "Yeah, him! He tested me saying that I don't sing on stage often. So I am going to prove him wrong!"
She stuck her tongue out at Free and he muttered, "Cocky little girl."
Maka announced, "But for the song I'm going to do, I need two female volunteers preferably ones who can sing."
"We'll do it!" yelled two familiar voices from the crowd. I searched the crowd for who I thought it was, and my theory was proven true whenever Liz and Patty climbed on stage next to Maka. They conversed for a minute and Maka handed them a sheet of paper. Maka yelled, "Kilik! CD 8, Track 2!
[MAKA LIZ PATTY ALL]
She got a body like an hourglass, but I can give it to you all the time
She got a booty like a Cadillac, but I can send you into overdrive oh!
(You've been waiting for that, stop, hold up, swing your bat)
The petite blonde made an hourglass shaped to her own body even though she lacked the curves. She swayed her hips seductively as she sang the song.
See anyone can be bad to you,
You need a good girl to blow your mind, yeah
Maka dropped it low as she sang those two lines. You could see men in the crowd going nuts.
Bang bang into the room (I know you want it)
Bang bang all over you (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute 'til ya (ah)
Bang bang there goes your heart (I know you want it)
Back, back seat of my car (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute 'til ya (ah)
Liz joined in as an echo for the chorus and threw the paper that had the lyrics on it. The two girls got back to back and slowly lowered themselves to the ground seductively. Liz got up first and pulled Maka up. As Maka rose, she arched her back in a flirtatious fashion.
She might let you hold her hand in school, but
Imma show you how to graduate
No, I don't need to hear you talk the talk,
Just come and show me what your mama gave (oh, yeah)
(You've got a very big, shhh, mouth but don't say a thing)
See anybody can be good to you,
You need a bad girl to blow your mind
Liz pointed to Maka as she sang the first line and pushed her away when she sang the second. She then pointed to the crowd and did a "come here" motion with her finger as she bent over flirtatiously. Maka pulled Liz up straight and put a hand up to make it look like she was telling her a secret whenever they sang a line together. I forgotten how much Liz loved to perform, and she seemed to be really enjoying it up there.
Bang bang into the room (I know you want it)
Bang bang all over you (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute 'til ya (ah)
Bang bang there goes your heart (I know you want it)
Back, back seat of my car (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute 'til ya (ah)
Liz and Maka danced provocatively for pretty much all of that part of the chorus. They ended standing up next to each other.
(You know what, girls? Lemme show you how to do.)
Patty got in between Liz and Maka and put her arms around them as she "Showed them how to do."
Its Myx Moscato
It's frizz in a bottle
It's Patty full throttle
It's oh, oh
Swimming in the grotto
We winning in the lotto
We dipping in the pot of blue foam,
So Kitten so good
It's dripping on the wood
Get a ride on the engine that could
Go, Batman robbin' it
Bang, bang, cockin' it
Queen Patty dominant, prominent
It's me, Maka, and Lizi
If they test me they sorry
Ride us up like a Harley
Then pull off in this Ferrari
If we hanging we banging
Phone ranging, he slanging
It ain't karaoke night but get the mic 'cause I'm singing (uh)
B to the A to the N to G to the uh (baby)
B to the A to the N to the G to the hey
See anybody can be good to you,
You need a bad girl to blow your mind (your mind)
Patty lightly shoved Maka and she then leaned her back against her older sister's.
Bang bang into the room (I know you want it)
Bang bang all over you (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute 'til ya (ah)
Bang bang there goes your heart (I know you want it)
Back, back seat of my car (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute 'til ya (ah)
Maka did a cheerleader kick, swayed her hips, and dropped it low various times while singing that part. Liz and Patty did those things as well.
Bang bang there goes your heart (I know you want it)
Back, back seat of my car (I'll let you have it)
Wait a minute let me take you there (ah)
Wait a minute it 'til ya (ah)
As Maka sang the final line of the song, she dropped to her knees, either out of exhaustion or she intended on it. She looked pretty damn adorable as she did it though. Liz and Patty blew kisses to the crowd as they got off the stage. Maka got on her feet once more, hopped off the stage, pushed her way through the crowd, leaped over the bar, shoved her finger into Free's face, and said, "In your face, Free! I did sing and I rocked it!"
"Alright, I'll give you that one, Miss Maka. You're lucky your Papa didn't see you up there. He would've thrown a fit," Free replied while knocking her arm down. The man then proceeded to playfully pull out her pigtails. Maka blew her hair out of her face. She calmly stated while crossing her arms, "Then let's keep that between us and the other staff members, of course."
Their conversation was interrupted by Kid clearing his throat. Maka turned to face us, "Oh yeah, sorry. Completely forgot I was at work. What is it that you need?"
"My name is Death the Kid, but you can call me Kid. Have you heard of the band, Soul Resonance?" Kid asked her. The blonde bartender was silent for a moment as she thought. After a minute or two of her thinking she replied, "Hi, my name is Maka Albarn, and you can call me Maka. I think so. I'm not quite sure, to be honest."
"Well, Soul" Kid pointed to me, "Those two girls you sang with, two other people that are somewhere in this bar, and I make up the band. We are currently looking for a female vocalist. That vocalist could be you, if you want to join that is," The bassist told her. Her eyes widened in surprise. She stammered, "Uh, I don't know. Are you sure I am good enough to join your band? I mean, I am just a girl who works at a bar and sings whenever she feels like it. I don't think that I could join an actual band that is most likely going to get somewhere in the music industry."
"You're right. You aren't good enough to be in our band," I said to her. Kid kicked me and I sent him a look that told him that I knew what I was doing. Maka crossed her arms before retaliating, "Okay, what do I have to do to be good enough to be in, Soul Resonance?"
"Sing with me."
…Chapter 01 End…
Hooray! The first chapter is done! I liked this chapter a lot, and I hope the others are as good as this one. Also, I had to change "Bang Bang" up a little bit to make it work. I'm personally not a big fan of that song, but I had my reasons for using it. So yeah, next chapter will have a duet in it!
