While the others got comfy for the performance, Kazuki had to jury-rig the stereo system to play strictly the drum portion of the songs they would be playing. While Darling took a brief moment to warm up his voice, after he had retrieved his bass guitar from his car. "Want to play some old songs?" Kazuki asked. Darling nodded. "Yeah. Some from when we were younger, but I'd rather do primarily newer ones." He replied. Kazuki nodded again, then stood up when he was done. "Alright then. You actually going to show your whole face?" He asked. "Not a damn chance." Darling said as he pulled his coat off, and tossed it in to a near by chair. Which revealed the tattoo on his right bicep. It was identical to Kazuki's, however, his rose had been wrapped in leather, and a guitar cord. Once they were done setting up, they stood in front of the others. Darling with his Virgo tuned, and adjusted. While Kazuki held a Dean Spire bass. With that, Darling turned the stereo on, and they went right in to their performance. {Right now, they're doing Ballad of Mona Lisa. They might go in to a couple of Porcelain Tramps songs here and there. But it'll only be a couple. Darling's guitar: http://bcrich.com/models/guitars/Virgo/Virgo-Celtic-Tremolo/123 Kazuki's bass: http://www.deanguitars.com/ashleypurdy_series.php First one on the list. }

(( I love that song. I need to look up Porcelain Tramp though lol))
Everyone got comfy and waited patiently and so did Z. He watched Kazuki get ready and laughed quietly at the few jokes here and there. He couldn't wait for the performance.
(( love the instruments. ))

{Tis a good song. As for Porcelain, go with the older stuff. Her stuff as Porcelain Black isn't very good. Porcelain Tramps, however, I like. It's very angsty, but it suits Darling's younger years.} The two brothers wasted no time in beginning the small show. They started with the Ballad of Mona Lisa. It was rather weird for Darling to not have his touring members, but he'd get used to it. And for only hearing the song once, Kazuki was certainly playing it well. For a couple minutes, they stood still. But as the song picked up, the duo eventually grew comfortable, and began to move around. Out of habit, Darling kept his right eye closed, in case his hair moved out of place. But either way, he and Kazuki were having a blast preforming together. And it was nice for Darling, because he didn't have to worry about a fritzy microphone messing up his sound. They only hoped the others were enjoying the performance. The song soon ended, and they wasted no time in going in to the second one. This time, they decided on Planetary Go. {The My Chemical Romance song. And I'm glad you like the instruments.}

(( I looked up some of there stuff and not bad. I love that song by My Chemical Romance. They are one of my favorite bands))
Takumi and Z loved every single bit of the performance and really loved the songs. Z knew Darling could sing but he sounded so much better live and he loved that Kazuki play and he was really good at it. He moved to the music as they played.

{I agree. They are amazing.} Kazuki and Darling were having so much fin with their little show. Darling even cracked a grin while he sang, and played the song. Kazuki was glad to see his younger brother enjoying himself. And it was amazing that he still remembered how to play bass. When they finished the song, they took a short break. Darling pushed his bangs back, but kept his right eye closed. "How many songs do you guys actually want to hear? Nii-san and I could probably keep this up all night." Darling pointed out. He didn't want the others to get bored. Leonide shrugged. "It doesn't matter to me." He said, then looked at the others. "What do you guys think?" He asked.

(( Yes they are))
Kinji came out from the back of the room and smiled "That was great. I would love to hear some more and by the looks of Z rocking out on the couch..i think he loves it too. Makes me miss playing with him. How bout you guys do a few more songs and then I want Z to play at least one song..Lets see if he can still play". Takumi agreed next to Leonide "I agree after a few more songs I want to see our birthday boy perform". Z just blushed at the attention and looked away.

Kazuki looked over at his younger brother. "What do you think, Dar?" He asked. Darling thought for a moment, while he pushed his bangs back in to place. "Fair enough." He said. They decided to play about three more songs, having decided on Mz. Hyde, King of the World, and Bulletproof Heart. Despite those three taking about fifteen minutes, it seemed to go by much quicker than that. Darling slid his Virgo off, and tapped the neck of it with his finger. "Alright then. Let's see what you boys come up with." He said, with a bit of a challenging tone to his voice. Kazuki shook his head, then dragged his brother away from the stereo. "You can have a battle of the bands contest with them later. Just not at night." He scolded, as they switched places with Takumi, Z, and Kinji. {In order of appearance, I used Halestorm, Porcelain Tramps, and MCR.}

(( I had to hunt around for songs lol and I threw in two English songs. ))
The rest of the performance was great but Z had butterflys in his stomach. He hadn't performed since way before his accident and he was so scared he would not be able to play. He went and got his new guitar and let takumi tune it up since he was great at that. Kinji got out his ipod that had music incase he needed and located all three songs and what instruments were needed and got it ready. Z just looked at Darling rambling and paid no attention..he was terrified. When they did the first song IN MY HEAD it was just him and Kinji singing but He was surprised he could still play and a smile crossed his lips as he sang. Takumi played along with the guys. Then they played Z's favorite song BURN IT DOWN . Kinji raped why Z once again sang and Then finally Takumi sang NO MATTER WHAT. Z hand hurt a little after but he was happy when it was over.
(( in order CN Blue (song in Japanese) , Linkin Park and Papa Roach))

{Lol! Its alright.} Kazuki sat down next to Leonide, while Darling took a spot on the floor. Everyone, except Darling, was fully expecting K-pop, but the rock songs were such a nice treat. It was nice to hear every now and then. And they were all surprised by how much they liked the songs. Kazuki tapped his finger on the arm of the couch, along to the songs. Leonide would bob his head every now and then. And Darling was actually grinning with enjoyment. When they ended their performance, the three of them applauded the old band mates. "That was really good!" Leonide said. Kazuki nodded in agreement. "I agree as well. That was quite enjoyable." Darling said.

(( lol I was like ok I know what song I wanted but the others lol but I got it ))
Kinji smiled "I know everyone was probably expecting us to do K pop but with my current mood and the fact that Z was nervous I went back to who we used to be and then of course I picked Z's favorite rock songs for his birthday". Z rubbed his hand and smiled "I was surprised on how much I knew by memory and that I could still play". Walking over to the kitchen he took a pain pill for his hand and smiled again "Sooooooooo" He said "More presents". he said with a child like smile. Takumi got him some movies that he really wanted and some new shirts. He waited patiently for more.

Kazuki shrugged to Kinji. "That. And K-pop doesn't really seem like it would be your style anyway." He said. Darling stood up, and stretched. If he sat there any longer, he'd end up falling asleep, since he was up rather late the previous night. But he had to agree with the others. The show was quite interesting, and he really enjoyed it. "You three were really good." He said. When Z came back, the three of them couldn't help but laugh. "He really is like a child. Congrats Nii-san." Darling joked. Kazuki merely shrugged. "He's cute though." The artist said, then handed Z a large, custom, leather bound note book. He and Leonide disappeared for a few minutes, while they dragged out a couple of larger gifts. Both being brand new, Marshall amplifiers. And Leonide had special ordered Soju from Korea.

"That is very true...but tomorrow will be a different story cause I will be doing a K pop song". Kinji said with a laugh. All three thanked darling for the compliment. They all laughed at Z and Z being himself blushed greatly at what darling said and even brighter at Kazuki. Z was rather happy with the notebook since it was different then anything he had been given. And Z about died when he saw the Amplifiers. He was so happy about his gifts. He went and hugged Takumi and then Leonide and Shyly thanked Kazuki from across the room. He wanted to kiss him but suddenly felt shy with everyone there.

Kazuki was a little put out when Z only shyly thanked him. But, he still nodded. Darling, on the other hand, looked from his older brother, then to Z, and then turned to Leonide. "Care to give me a hand with these two?" He asked, as he indicated to Z, and Kazuki with a wave of his arm. The blonde nodded. "It would be my genuine pleasure." He said, with a grin. Working quickly, the two of them pushed the two love birds closer to each other. Hard enough, that Kazuki instinctively grabbed Z's arm, for fear of the other boy falling. "Now then. Quit being so bashful." Leonide said. Darling nodded in agreement. "You're both among friends. And family, in Kazuki's case. To put it simply. Show some freaking emotion around your other half." He added. Kazuki blinked in surprise at his friend, and brother. But shrugged an instant later, then pulled Z in to a kiss.

(( I like your avi ))
Z was standing there trying not to blush and when the others came up with a plan to push them together his eyes went wide and he had no time to protest at all as they pushed them together.
Z grabbed Kazuki's arms as Kazuki grabbed him..which he knew was from fear of him falling. He could hear Takumi laughing in the background and applauding Darling and Leonide for there quick movement at getting them together. Z just looked up at Kazuki as Leonide spoke and almost laughed at Darling when he told him to show some freaking emotion...but that thought quickly went away as he was pulled into a kiss. Accidently letting out a gasp of surprise he kissed back.

{Thanks!} Leonide smiled at Takumi when he applauded him, and Darling. He folded his arms over his chest when the other two finally loosened up. "Much better." He said. Darling nodded. "I agree. But someone better open a window before they steam up the room." He joked. Kazuki let go of Z long enough to flip his brother off, but quickly returned his arm to the other boy's waist. And he couldn't help but smirk when he hear a gasp of surprise from Z. He pulled away a few moments later, so that they could breath. "Much better." He said with a grin.
