*A small child runs up to the stage excitedly and begins looking around* Is this the singing place? Where they're having this cool thing for all those music people? *The child looks around at the mostly empty area* Ummm... W... Where are all the singers? It looks a little empty.

The thing is that we chose people out of the Crowd. Do you maybe want to give it a try?

O.... Oh... S... So I just... Go up and sing? I... I guess I can do that. I've practiced quite a bit for labcoat guy.

{Tai and Agumon make their way into the concert hall and take a seat.} A: We're late Tai! And who's fault was that Mr. "Feed me now even though I ate an hour ago"? {Agumon shyly scratches the top of his head.} A: Ehehehe...fair point.

@Kuudere Then I wish you good luck. *She steps aside*

{Tai cracks some glow sticks and hands two to Agumon, holding two for himself.}

O... Ok *The child runs up onto the stage and grabs a mic* Um.... It... It's nice to see you all today. I... I'll... Um... I'll just get started now. It's... Nothing much really. Just a silly little song I learned. About some... *clears throat* N... Nevermind. I... I'll just start singing. *After a few deep breaths Kuu begins to sing in his immature, boyish voice* Through mostly vacant streets a Baker from the outskirts of his town earned his living peddling sweets from a ragged cart he dragged around. The clever Fox crept close behind, kept an ever watchful eye for a chance to steal a Ginger spicecake or a Boysenberry pie. Looking down was the hungry Crow: When the time is right I'll strike and condescend to the earth below and take whichever treat I like! The moment the Baker turned around to shoo the Fox off from his cart, the Crow swooped down and snatched a shortbread cookie and a German chocolate tart. Using most unfriendly words that the village children had not yet heard, the Baker shouted threats by Canzonet to curse the crafty bird: You rotten wooden mixing spoon! Why, you midnight winged raccoon! You'd better bring those pastries back, you no good, burnt-black-macaroon!!! The Fox approached the tree where the bird was perched, delighted, in his nest: Brother Crow, don't you remember me? It's your old friend Fox with a humble request. If you could share just a modest piece, seeing as I distracted that awful man...

This failed to persuade the Crow in the least, so the Fox rethought his plan: Then, if your lovely song would grace my ears, or, to even hear you speak would ease my pains and fears. The Crow looked down with the candy in his beak. Your poems of wisdom, my Good Crow, what a paradise they bring! This flattery pleased the proud bird so, he opened his mouth and began to sing: Your subtle acclamation's true, best to give praise where praise is due. Every Rook and Jay in the Corvidae has been Raven about me too! They admire me, one and all... must be the passion in my 'Caw', my slender bill, known through the Escadrille, my fierce, commanding claw... *Kuu stops singing for a moment* S... This is a part of the story that doesn't pick up into song very well. So um, basically the cookie drops, Fox retrieves it -- there is commotion in the town as the Baker gives chase. Crow is humiliated, realizes he's been tricked, continues his song. And... Oh yeah, I should pick up there too. Ah, I've got a Walnut-brownie-brain and Molasses in my veins, crushed graham cracker crust, my powdered Sugar funnelcake cocaine. Let the Crescent Cookie rise! These Carob-colored Almond eyes would rest to see my Cashew Princess in the Swirling Marble Sky. We'll rest upon the Knee where all divisions cease to be and rootbeer float in our Banana Boat across the Tapioca Sea. When letting all attachments go is the only prayer we know. May it be so, may it be so, may it be so, oh

*Audience and Aki begin cheering*

{Tai lets out whistles and hollers, as Agumon dances around cheering and shaking his glowsticks.}

*Kuu blushes and stammers into the mic* Um... T... Thanks for listening and... Um... Geeze.. I.. I... *Kuu drops the mic and scrambles off the stage, trying to blend in with the crowd*

This was an amazing start. So are ther any others who are willing to sing.

A: This guy! {Agumon pushes Tai out of the seats and into the stairs down to the stage.} I uh....Sure! Let's rock! Show Matt he isn't the only musical one! {Tai walks up to the stage as Agumon sneaks up to the catwalk above the stage.}

Alright then go ahead. *She smiles*

{He hops onto the stage and stands ready at the mic stand.} May my voice continue on, may it become a flower Can't you hear this sound, continuing on for eternity? In this time that is coming to an end, I don't want to have any regrets I have the proof of our dream clasped in my hand - I want you to believe in me Whether we're solving a riddle or running a relay Our journey will continue on It's an eternal puzzle - if you ever get stuck I will be your missing piece North, south, east and west Let's take the first step Like a butterfly flapping its wings And shine the way to tomorrow {From the catwalk, Agumon begins sending small fireballs that explode into harmless fireworks. Some red, some orange, and some blue.} The throbbing in my swelling chest is ringing with the light of hope It's too early to look back - can't you hear my voice? Whether we collide or intersect We'll have an adventure crossing over time and space {Tai dances as he sings, mimicking the lyrics as best he can in a physical form.} It's an eternal compass - if you ever get stuck I want you to hold both of my hands tightly Spring, summer, fall and winter It's okay if we still don't know where we're going Like the drifting clouds And shine the way to tomorrow This important thing, not written In any textbook, is in my hand You might call it "tomorrow," but, If I'm with you, we can go anywhere It's an eternal puzzle - if you ever get stuck I will be your missing piece North, south, east and west Let's take the first step Like a butterfly flapping its wings And shine the way to tomorrow Shine the way {With a hand slowly being raised to the sky, Agumon let's out the biggest firework yet as the song comes to a close.}

I can sense these strong emotions from both, This what i hoped to see today. *claps*

{With heavy breaths, Tai smiles and walks off stage to the seats. Agumon climbs down from the catwalk and follows suit.} Thanks for the opportunity Miss!

*Gamma slowly claps from somewhere in the audience* Bravo bravo, you were all very nice and energetic. Lovely little performance if I do say so myself.

@Tai no problem. I just kinda want to share some Talents and emotions through this contest , so who is next.

*Gamma sighs and steps towards the stage* If I can be so pained to intrude, I would like a chance to go next. *shrugs* If you're looking for others though, I can understand.

Gamma, fine with me, I am curious. Give it a go.

*Gamma sighs and steps on stage* Very well then, let us begin *Gamma's voice is low and slow, though he performs on a stage, he sounds more like he's singing at a funeral* I don't want to be a human anymore I'm done I don't want to make mistakes anymore They've won I'm too old to change *Gamma gestures towards his chest, before moving his arms out as he sings the next line* Take my heart and I'll restart; please just let me fall apart *Gamma paces the stage a little before stopping and facing the audience* You may say it's strange *as the next line comes out he moves one arm out to the side, then the other, making a shrugging motion before his upper body seemingly goes limp near the end* But I quit, guess that's it; for a human, I'm unfit, so... *Gamma stands back up straight and begins to pace slowly and methodically* Make me a robot Make me a robot Make, make me cold Make me a robot Make me a robot Take, take my soul *Gamma steps to the center of the stage and his voice grows softer and softer until the chorus* I don't want to have to fight anymore I'm tired I don't want to have to feel anymore Uninspired I am too worn out Broken down, on the ground; I'm too shy to make a sound All I have is doubt *Gamma once again makes a slow shrugging motion on-stage* I don't care, you can stare, cause a human can't compare, so... Make me a robot Make me a robot Make, make me cold Make me a robot Make me a robot Take, take my soul *Gamma's voice picks up in beat and pitch , though there's still something unsettling about it* To human is to err, forgiveness is divine I don't care, you can take my spine Cause I'm spineless anyway, I don't need another day or a call Take it all *Gamma finishes his performance with a full bow in front of the audience, arms outstretched to his sides*

*The Audience cheers loud , some may teared up a bit* This was a great Performance , I think you captured the crowd.

*Takumi enters the stage* It's time to show you guys what real music is. *He shoves aki aside*

*Gamma quickly jogs off the stage to get out of Takumi's way* Why do I get the feeling we're about to experience mood whiplash?

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me-

*Aki pulls the lever on the stage and Takumi falls through a door* Now that that's settled who is next?

*Gamma can hardly control his laughter* Yep.... Mood whiplash right now. Man, that was great.

At least you are having fun. This guy interupted practice 4 times.

*After a few moments Gamma controls his laughter* I mean.... he Did sing. That means he's a contestant I'm pretty sure. Can't get out of that one.

Tch, fine. *She opens the door* Hey Takumi , you can come out.

Grr. Never Silence me again . *He continued singinging all star*

Walks in and sits down. "Well this will be interesting."

*Aki lets clerval take over for the show* Hey Aincrad, how's it going.

"Not much Aki. Just the usual trying not to get myself killed. How about you? Besides this contest." He grins and looks on stage.

Oh well, I manage. The missions I get have helped me to get enough for the price here.So I can't complain for now. Also it's great to hear others sing than myself.

*Jade steps onto the stage* Oh my seems I found myself in a new Situation. Let's see what the crowd thinks.

"That's good to hear, though not everyone's a good singer." He chuckles a bit and leans back in his chair. "Trust me, my singing makes people's ears bleed. It isn't a pretty sight."

*Gamma looks up at Jade and sighs* Probably a normal person. Considering I've never seen him before. Well, the show must go on.

@Aincrad_Hazel , well no one can do everything. I am very bad at crafting. *She takes a weird looking doll out of her pocket*

*After the song he lets out an evil laugh and goes*

He chuckles and looks at the doll. "Very true, though I must say it does look cool." He then turns to the stage at the evil laugh and claps for Jade. "Good song, and good evil laugh."

I feel something bad is about to happen. *She turns to what Jade ledt at the side of the stage* I knew it he left some of these love potion drops like he did in leblanc. Any thanks Aincrad. *She gives clerval the drops who throws them in the trash.*

Hmm...? What is this?

@Migrant Perfect timing. You had a great Voice at the Talent show. E are doing a singing contest. Would you like to try.

Aincrad raises an eyebrow. "Hmm? I have no idea what love potion drops you're talking about. I'm just a sucker for an evil laugh. It's so corny that I love it. But if something was gonna happen, thanks for stopping it. This contest deserves to continue."

@Aincrad_Hazel Yeah, it's better. Love is something no one should force. They only last for an hour, so I think he is just a prankster. But I agree mad scientists evil laughs are great. The song was awesome too.

"Oh Amen there. Let's hope that's all he is, cause that might cause a lot of trouble." Sighing he lays back. "But yeah, evil laughs are a lost art these days. We have villains to spare, but none corny enough to do one."

Hehe true. Maybe he will use his smarts for great things. But he should stay with that mad scientists theme. It's cool

So just get on stage and sing? Shouldn't be too hard.

He chuckles and gets up stretching. "Hopefully. And who doesn't love a mad scientist? Nobody. Mad scientists are amazing." He grins and looks at Aki. "I recommend you put your ear plugs in. I'm gonna make people's ears bleed."

"Or after Mig." He bows before Mig. "Yep just go on up and sing. Have fun."

@Migrant I'll be cheering* for you * @Aincrad_Hazel Alright,then, after Mig and you I'll go then again . I

*Ryoji arrives and looks about with excitement* Ooh is the concert still going on? I got a special song that I want to perform for the ladies.

@Ryoji Sure you can go after Aincrad

(Head appears next to Aki.) I too, would care to participate!

(And did Mig disappear?)

(I need to not get so distracted on discord. One moment.)

*Mig gets up on stage and with a few deep breaths, starts to sing....* *It takes a bit but she does start getting back into it, woo!*

(Hahaha fair enough)

Aincrad claps. "Go for it Mig!"

OOC: know this youtube singer tooo she is great. IC: Great as always. *She smiles* . So Alright Aincrad , after that Ryojik and the John Cena.

Aincrad grins and jumps onto the stage. "Before I start, I recommend ear plugs." Smirking he snaps his fingers and Shadow forms beside him. "Well hope everyone is ready." Even though everyone can tell he's singing from his heart, his voice was just not meant to sing.

OOC: @Aincrad_Hazel we have way to much in common. Skillet is awesome . IC: *She whistles and cheers * *She seems to immune because she mostly listens to the emotions behind it*

(Are you my long lost sibling?!) Aincrad bows and Shadow disperses before he jumps down and rejoins Aki. "Why thank you Aki."

(Seems that way.XD) I felt you lots of fun. And this what it takes . Let's see what the other two can do

(Hahaha! Yes! Another sibling! Woot!) He grins and nods. "I'm shite at singing, but man do I love doing it. And yes let's see."

( Well my sister does not share much with me so i am glad also I am tired gotta go now.Others can stil sing.) This is all it takes.It doesn't matter if you are good or no. *Her Phone beeps* Damn the next Mission, Clerval will take care of the show but I gotta go. Was fun today, Aincrad. *She waves*

(Head disappears into the void and appears on stage.) Ahem. That is all. (Fades into the Rift.)

He waves back. "Always is Aki. Have fun with that mission!" (Nights)
