After a fairly successful band practice Kris walked home. She was thinking about how much fun it was seeing Corey today. She couldn't wait to see him again. She pulled out her phone and texted him: "Hey sweetie! I had a great time today!"
She hit send and kept walking.
Corey was on his way to Amigo Taco. He was lazily rolling along on his skateboard, his favourite song blasting in his head phones, and as he rolled along he felt his phone vibrate. Corey couldn't stop to look at his phone because he was about to cross the street. Once he crossed, he was already at Amigo Taco and so he couldn't look at his phone. He was too focused on the menu; unsure if he should get the usual, or to get something different for himself and the twins. Once it was his turn to order, he totally and completely forgot about everything. "Yo! Uhm, I'll haaaaave. . . Two number Fives, One number Two- With NO hot sauce on it. Uhhhhmmmmm. . One number Four- WAIT! Two number Fours, and One number Three with some Guaco on the side!" The girl rang up the order and told Corey how much he owed. Corey happily paid for the food, and then waited for it to all be made. Right now he was excited to see his two best friends, and he was excited to eat some Amigo Taco.
-Rikka-
Rikka smiled at Vittorio and spoke "Yeha, some food later would be sick! just... go put on some pants, k?" she said with a giggle. "we go on around 8:00" She said as she waved and dragged her things into the venue. Ronnie stood on the stage with the rest of the band and looked down on Rikka with an angry face. "You are late gallows" he said in a disproving tone. Rikka smiled and jumped up on stage. "I just like making you bitches wait for me is all" she said with the flick of a lighter and the puff of smoke from one of the cigarettes that vittorio gave her. Ronnie rolled his eyes as she got her guitar all pulgged in and they began to sound check.

Vittorio nodded and said to Rikka, "Alright, alright. Take care- I'll be here at about 7:30. I'll see you later." Vittorio smiled then walked out of the venue. On his way to the car, he twirled his key chain on his finger and wondered what he should wear later. As he was driving off, he was not even half a block away when he realized that Rikka was wearing his shirt. At this thought he smiled, "I'll let her keep it. What the hell." Vittorio got to Rikka's apartment about twenty minutes later, and the first thing he did when he walked in was finish his bowl of cereal. It was a little soggy at this point, but he was never one to start what he couldn't finish. He was now planning to just grab his clothes and run to his place to finish getting ready, as he didn't like to over stay his welcome.
Kjorla stood outside looking at himself in a bejeweled compact, adjusting his makeup and trying to look as good as he possibly could with these 'rags' the school called uniforms. Why were these a thing? It's a university not a ******** army! He should have listened to his brother Yuushin when he tried to explain the rules of Gaia before he arrived. The young demon modified the uniform to the best of his abilities. If the school had a problem then they'd just have to deal with it.

Corey was skating along with bags from Amigo Taco full of food for himself and his friends. Corey had to stop for a moment though, because one of the bags felt like it was slipping out of his hand and he needed to adjust. Before coming to a complete stop, Corey could see someone straightening out their uniform, and they seemed lost. Corey smiled at this girl and said, "Yo, you need some help? Are you, like, lost or something?" Seeing the girl in her uniform threw him off a little. It was summer time currently, and classes weren't to start for another couple of weeks.
Caught off guard by the sudden sound of someone's voice, Kjorla looked up to see a young-looking dark elf. A grin slid across the demon garnet-colored lips at his question, "Oh, why hello there. No I'm not exactly lost...not in the physical manner anyways...I thought I was late moving to the university due to my indecisiveness. I'm not sure how to proceed. He lifted his delicate hands with a shrug and bit his bottom lip in a care free manner.
His blue eyes skimmed their surroundings over. There seemed to be a lot of freshmen arriving. "Seems like I'm right on time how ever. It's so unlike me heh heh." he chimed, "Still...I don't know my place around. I barely left The Isle since arriving in Gaia."

After soundcheck, Rikka and the band walked down into the basement greenroom of the club and took a seat on the couch. She pulled her smartphone from her back pocket and pulled up a messaging window to Vittorio. "Hey vitt, when you head back to my place, can you grab my leather corset? it's hanging on my closet door and I really don't wanna go on in your t shirt, no offence. Also, bring some ******** people with you, I don't care who, but we are gonna need some inside support for DDD to win over the crowd a little bit more before the main act goes on". She sent the message and looked up to see a beer can flying at her face. She awkwardly caught the can of 'Barton Craft Beer' and popped it open "Don't ******** do that!" she yelled playfully at ronnie as she sprayed the beer in his direction.

Corey felt bad that he got the person's gender wrong- He could've sworn he was talking to a girl, but whatever. This person looked cool. Corey was going to volunteer to show this person around, but he looked down at the bags of Amigo Taco, and then he had an idea, "Well, uhm. I'm about to go take this food over to my Bro-ham and Sis-turkey- Wanna come and hang and stuff with us? There's enough food here for, like, ALL of us." Just then Adam and Katherina had walked up to Corey. "Hey, Corey- We just saw you and thought we'd come over." Katherina said, Adam only game a weak smile. Corey smiled and replied "YO! Duuuude!- You guys, I got us a lot of food, and stuff!" "So, who's this?" Corey's eyes got big, and he let out an 'Uhhhhhhmmmmm' then asked the person, "Yo, what IS your name? I didn't catch it."
Meanwhile, Vittorio's dorm. . .
Vittoriohad just finished getting himself ready for later. His hair was officially done, he was dressed; He wore form-fitting trousers, his motorcycle boots with his favourite handkerchief wrapped around the ankle of the right boot, his favourite chains hanging off his pants and belt. He wore some of his favourite necklaces as well. As Vittorio was getting his keys and his phone, he saw that he had gotten a message from Rikka. After reading it he replied back, "Sure thing. Be there in ten or less." then hit send. Right after hitting send he drove over to Rikka's apartment, which wasn't too far away, and did as she had asked and grabbed her leather corset which was exactly where she said it would be. Afterwards he locked up and drove over to the Venue. Once there, he quickly walked inside. When he saw her he waved it around in his hand and handed it over to her, "I'm going to invite some people out now. Anyone in particular you wanted me to invite out?"

Kris got back to her room and plopped down on her bed. She checked her phone for the 10th time, seeing the Corey hadn't texted her back, she shut her phone with a sigh. She picked up her music theory book and began to read the first chapter. After about 5 pages she nodded off.
The demon smiled at the elf's offer. He hadn't known them to be friendly to anyone not of their own kind; then again his kind hadn't been known to be friendly at ALL. Before he could even accept the offer, the two of them were suddenly joined by others. "Oh I forgot a proper introduction, so sorry. I'm Kjorla; a Freshman I suppose. And whom might you be kind little elves?" There was a giggle in his voice and he winked his long lashed eye at Corey. Kjorla was always such a flirt.

Corey replied, "I'm Corey! These two are my best friends Katherina," Katherina gave Kjorla a slight wave and said "Hey." "And this is Adam!" Adam nodded then extended his hand to shake Kjorla, "Hello, Kjorla. Pleased to meet you." Corey smiled. He was glad to see Adam was finally out of his dorm and out walking with his sister. Adam seemed to look a little healthier, but still had a long way to go. Thinking about his friends made him forget completely that he had gotten a text earlier.

Rikka lit up a new cigarette and put her arm around vittorio "Naw, just anyone you think will be good to support the band" she said nervously.

Vittorio reciprocated her affections by also putting his arm around her while accessing FaceSpace through his phone. He came to the unfortunate realization that he didn't have as many friends as he would've liked. In actuality Vittorio wasn't all that popular- especially since he's the manager at a Print Shop not too far from the school. And he realized that most of his "friends" are actually the employees at said Print Shop. Ever since he got that managing position a few years ago, he noticed that that seemed to repel the people he used to be friends with. As much as it hurt him, at least he knew he was valuable enough to earn that position. Not knowing what else to do, Vittorio put up an announcement: "Hello everyone, how is your day going so far? If it's not so great then it just got good. I'm inviting all of you to see my friend's band, Drop Dead Drow. They will be performing here at..." And proceeded to give as much information about the gig as possible; where it was located, who else was performing, etc. He was about to hit post when an idea popped into his head. . . Vittorio smiled and then wrote: "... And that's not all! Whoever comes to the show tonight will have their ticket bought buy me! Yes! I'm buying your tickets for you! But that's not all! I will also be buying everybody drinks! Come tonight and help support Drop Dead Drow! You won't be sorry!" Feeling satisfied with this, he hit Post. Then put his phone away. Vittorio prayed that this would be enough.
Meanwhile, Out in the Quad with Kjorla, Corey, Adam and Katherina,. . .
Adam was watching the interaction between Corey and his new friend when he felt his GPhone vibrate. Adam reached into his pocket and saw that he had a new FaceSpace notification, so he slid a bony finger across the screen to unlock it and saw that his boss, Vittorio, had made an announcement regarding a show tonight featuring Rikka's band. "Rikka. . I see she's doing well. Better than I am, at least." He thought. Before he could put his phone away, Katherina happened to sneak a glance. She smiled and she said to her twin brother, "We're going." Adam let out a heavy sigh and then said "No we're not." Next thing he knew, he and his sister were carrying on a brother-and-sister-quarrel. Katherina was stating reasons as to why they should all go to the show. These reasons were: That Adam needed to get out of the room more and socialize with other people, because his constant isolation was doing him no good except he was getting pale. Meanwhile Adam was protesting; He wasn't ready to be out and about. Even simply going out for a walk with her was a mighty big step for him. Adam wasn't ready for loud music, loud people, and drinks being thrown around. He wanted to just stay home and study. ". . . Look, Adam, all I'm going to say is: If you don't get out tonight you'll never get out. And I understand that you're depressed- I am, too- but you need this. You need to be out, you need fresh air. Staying cooped up in our dorm is NOT helping you. Isolation is NOT helping you anymore. Please, Adam?- I'll go with you! ALL of us will!" "Katherina. . ." Adam let out a sigh and thought long and hard about this. . "Well. . The tickets ARE going to be free. . And Katherina does like to drink sometimes, now. . ." Adam rubbed the back of his neck. After a couple more minutes, Adam finally caved in to his sister's wish. "Fine. We'll go -" Katherina hugged Adam, but he continued, "But only for a little while, please? I have studying to do. And if I don't get my grades up, I'll -" "- This is going to be great!! I'm going to go get myself ready!!" Adam sighed. He looked to Corey and Kjorla and sighed, ". . . I guess I'll go get ready, too. I'll see you guys there- Katherina will probably text you when she's ready, Corey. . See you guys, later. It was nice to meet you again, Kjorla." Adam gave Kjorla a weak smile, then walked off. He didn't know what tonight was going to be like, but he was hoping for the best.
Sometime later, Rikka sat in the dressing room that the club had down stairs, underneath the stage. As she did her make up in the cracked mirror, she noticed how old this building was and how well worn this particular dressing room had looked with it's yellowed walls and torn leather styling chairs, this place had probably seen it's share of weird s**t. Probably haunted too... she thought to herself, looking behind her for any spooks that might be lurking. As Rikka adjusted her red, leather, bikini top, she could hear the first act shuffling onto the stage and starting their set. After pushing her stage fright back down into her stomach, she made sure her valuables were stored away safely and walked out of the dressing room to meet up with the band, her jewelry creating a soft tune of it's own as it dangled from her neck.

Adam was incredibly nervous; he never had anxiety before. Big crowds, or social gatherings never used to make him anxious. Adam used to love crowds- he used to be a concert violist when he was younger. He wasn't sure if it was the medication that was making him anxious or if it was the constant isolation. The school's counselor gave Adam a book, which teaches you how to cope with anxiety. So as the noise in the venue continued, Adam practiced his breathing. Occasionally he would take a sip of his club soda and cranberry juice, and continue breathing. Adam looked up from the bar's counter, his sister having the time of her life; dancing with Corey and Kjorla. Adam now felt bad- he felt like such a downer for not participating in the activities. He felt horrible for allowing himself to be engulfed in his own depression and anxiety, and he couldn't believe he allowed thoughts of his father to hurt him like this. But he couldn't bring himself to get off of the bar stool to go into the crowd, and hang out with his sister and their friends. Adam took more deep breaths, and continued sipping his beverage. He would calm down eventually. .
