Makoto loved the rush of the stage, the screaming of the fans, the melting melody of her and her band-mates. It was..electric. She didn't have time to groan at her own bad pun, she was too busy kicking it with a rockin' guitar solo.
Her band Valhalla was pretty popular back in the States, but her manager and her band-mates thought they could and should make it big worldwide. Instead of going to somewhere like Canada and Australia were they at least speak English, their first stop on the path to global stardom was Japan. Makoto came from Japanese born and bred parents, but have never once visited her ancestral homeland herself. Hell she didn't even like sushi.
Makoto ended her solo and looked out into the crowd. The nightclub was kinda smaller than she was used to and so was the crowd. There was maybe only twenty or so people there. She frowned, she was used to thousands..
This night couldn't get any worse.

Miki sighed as she wondered what she was doing here, she had gone into the nightclub because she thought that it would make her overcome her anti-social behaviour. So far it wasn't working, while the nightclub wasn't packed it wasn't exciting either and she was getting bored by the minute, worse still was that several men had tried to pick her up and although she had refused their advances she didn't know how much more she could take.

Vahalla finished its last set for the night and let some local DJ take over who began to blast a mixing of Jpop and American Gangsta rap.
"People like this garbage?" remarked Tad the bassist.
"I thought you were all about Jpop being, you know, Japanese," smirked Josh the vocalist.
"I was born in Vancouver, asshole," said Tad, rolling his eyes.
"I'm hungry," interrupted Ray the drummer, "Let's get us some eats! Hey, where did Makoko go?"
Makoto had wormed her way into the audience, her head moving to the beat, her eyes fixated on the DJ.

Miki turned to the DJ as she found herself tapping her foot to the beat as she let her mind wander and she became immersed in her own little world.

Makoto, who had put on a large grey hoodie after the show ended, noticed a girl really getting into it from the corner of her eye.
She causally strolled over and said, "Hey there. Having a good time?"

Miki snapped out of her world and looked at Makoto as she quietly nodded, "Y-yeah," she said quietly unsure of what to say.

"No need to be so nervous, I'm not trying to pick you up or anything sketchy like that," Makoto smirked, "I may try to roofie your drink though."
"Classy.." said the inner Makoto, "A rape joke.. If I had any sense, I'd walk away right now.."
"How do you like the music?"

Miki trembled as Makoto made their joke as she gave a small shrug, "It's not bad I suppose..." she said.

"Oh? And what about that band that went before? Valhalla I think it was."

"Really?!" Makoto's eyes began to sparkle as she took Miki by the hands, "Tell me you're not joking! I want your 100 percent honest opinion!"

Miki yelped when Makoto grabbed her hands as she nodded vigirously, anything to get the woman off of her, "Yes it was very good," she said.

"That's great to hear!" she practically shouted while shaking the other girl's hands, "Would you consider yourself a fan?"

"That's.." she realized what she was doing at last and let the girl go before saying in a calmer voice, "Cool."
She placed her hands in her hoodie pockets, "I'm Makoto. The lead guitarist."
