499 Is It Fall Yet?
by SSj04 Mewtwo
***
The bass player bangs his head a little as the lead guitarist jumps into the solo. The instrumental part of the song was almost as long as the lyrical part was. Then the bass player starts singing the third verse. After the final repeat of the chorus a hauntingly keyboard melody joins in during the final solo. The song finally ends.
"That song's too damn long." Jessie complains.
"Not used to playing seven minute songs are you?" Daric asks.
"How about a shorter one...,Dirty Window?(1)" Trent asks.
"Don't get him started about that album." Angel says.
"They broke several cardinal rules during the creation of that album. They should have gotten a bass player first thing." Daric states.
"I don't have to bang on a metal trash can for this song do I?" Max asks.
"Nah,1 2 3 4...," Trent counts and the band launches into the song. Afterwards Trent smiles.
"I think we've found ourselves a new bass player." Trent states.
"And Angel?" Daric asks.
"As long as we don't go electronica." Trent says.
"If you even say that word I shall burn your soul in the flames of hell." Angel states calmly.
"Hey, Flames of Hell...,"
"Nah, that's too over the top Jessie." Trent states.
"Plus, that's a death metal band name." Daric adds. "Now, let me hear your original stuff."
***
Trent sighs as he stretches on his bed. Daric and Angel would work out just fine. That, however, wasn't on his mind. He had warned Daria that Tom was interested in her, but she didn't listen to him. Of course, why should she? She was the smartest person he knew and he was just a slacker musician. Tom, however, was the bad guy in this whole situation. He kissed her and didn't seem that remorseful in the slightest. Jane was now at that arc colony still hurting from that whole mess. Trent shakes his head. He needed to focus on the band at the moment. Daric had somehow arranged a road trip that got them gigs outside of Lawndale. Daric knew people and having connections was a good thing.
***
"This thing is almost ready." Daric says smiling.
"You do realize we basically rebuilt the engine, the fuel system, re-upholstered the front seats, put in a second and third row of seat,and the transmission right?" Max asks grinning.
"Yeah, didn't know that much was wrong with it." Trent says smiling.
"Hey Trent," Jessie says quietly, "I think that's Daria coming this way."
"Yeah, hmmm, wonder what's in that case?" he muses aloud. The satellite radio blares out a System of a Down song which gets Daric and Angel singing immediately.
"Can I talk to you...,inside?" Daria asks.
"yeah," Trent says and the two go back inside.
"Hey, was that a guitar case?" Max asks.
"Yeah," Jessie answers.
"C'mon, let's go listen in." Daric says and the band goes inside to spy on their leader.
***
"You sure you wanna do this?"
"I'm tired of this town, I'm tired of my mother trying to get me to do more than get my ass up and find work, and I'm tired of trying to make a relationship with Tom work. I'm not used to a guy who was dating my best friend kiss me." Instead of replying to that comment, he decides to change the subject a little.
"Let me here you then." Trent states.
"Nothing Else Matters(2)," Daric quietly whispers.
"Six? Is Trent nuts?" Max asks.
"Silence, or I shall rap your tongue around your head." Angel states.
"That's was good...,but are you sure about this? You might end up liking this. You've got more potential than just being in a band."
"I appreciate that, but right now I need an escape, and Mystic Spiral's music is my best chance to escape. Besides, it beats working with Mr. O'Neill for the summer."
"Alright, you're in."
***
'What a gig," Trent muses in the back seat of the tank, 'Daric's songs and lyrics certainly come from a dark place.' He looks over to the half napping Daria. He then hears Daric start singing out lyrics to himself.
"Another song?" Trent asks.
"Yeah," he answers not missing a beat. Finishing the second verse in his head, he quickly grabs his notebook and furiously writes. He passes it to Trent who looks over it.
"Pure(3)?"
"I know it reads like a ballad and might sound like a ballad when we start putting music to it, but I think we can make it sound heavy at the same time."
"Cool," Trent replies not knowing that someone had been reading over his shoulder.
"Well, we know where all the lyrical talent will be in the band." Daria states.
"We wake you?" Trent asks.
"I was only half asleep. Besides, I shouldn't use you as a human pillow."
"It's alright."
"You were right...,about Tom."
"I'm not mad. Why should you listen to someone who sleeps half the day." Daria bites her lip. Trent seemed to know that he was flawed when it came to needing too much sleep.
"I was blinded by the fact that I thought that no guy would be interested in me so long as my sister was in the same area code."
"Your sister is an air head."
"While that might be true, she knows exactly how you males function. Stimulate that part of the brain that controls the male organ used in sex and then suck the money from you."
"Bitter?"
"She's wasting her real potential away. There's a brain in that head, but the problem is that she doesn't use it because she wants to fit in."
"This is new...,defending the little sister?" Trent teases.
"Tell anyone and I'll kill you."
"Now that's the Daria I know."
"Grab my guitar...,we'll hammer out some music since sleep is the furthest thing from our minds. The three start quietly playing as Max continues to drive the tank.
'Find something pure...,this relationship with Tom is the furthest thing from pure.' Daria muses.
***
"A nervous breakdown...,a nervous breakdown...,a nervous break...,down!(4)" Daric sings as the club goers mosh near the front of the stage.
"Heard you were sitting in on some of these musicians' gigs...,what possessed you to do that?" Jane asks.
"My mom wanted me to go work for O'Neill's emotional mush camp...,and I'm having trouble being in a relationship with your former boyfriend."
"Hmmmm, paradise not paradise I see."
"Look, I thought Tom wanted to talk about you, I was wrong and stupid for getting in that car with him. However, you were the one that wanted us to get along. Had you allowed me to keep my blood lust for him this might not have happened. No, I take that one back, had we'd not asked Trent for thirty seconds of music then I damn sure know that things would have been different. Why he said 'yes' I'll never know. In fact, I wonder if he would have said 'yes' if you had been there when I asked."
"Uh...,errrrr,..."
"More yentaing?"
"I plead the fifth?"
"You risked your English on a yenta chance?"
"Ok...,so I can't help myself. I'll go to YA one of these days."
"I'll check you in myself if I have to."
"Going to fix things with Tom?"
"No. Being on the road with Trent has cleared my head."
"Hmmm, I thought being on the road with my brother only got you humiliation and embarrassment."
"That's only when you're around, Lane. I'm not going to try to stay in a relationship with Tom. He kissed me while still with you. Nothing says that he won't repeat that same mistake."
"I guess you and Tom makes more sense than me and Tom."
"You're trying to date a male version of me...,is there something you want to tell me?"
"No! Hell no!"
"Hmmmm?"
"Sorry, by-sexual at the colony."
"Oh boy..., do I even want to know?"
"Trust me, you're better off not knowing." Jane retorts.
***
"Enjoyed the life on the road?" Trent asks Daria as the two sit in the back seat of the tank as Max drives them back to Lawndale.
"I don't know if I'd want to do this for a career, but if I need to get out of Lawndale for a few years, I know who to talk to."
"What are you going to do about Tom?"
"I'm not going to try and continue that. However," she begins looking up at Trent. Trent grins and kisses her on the lips. He pulls back to see her smiling at him.
"What?"
"Had you kissed me on the lips instead of the cheek I would have been forced not to think that you were unreliable."
"I swear on my guitar that I won't say 'yes to something that involves your school again, except for coming to your graduation." Trent says and wraps an arm around her shoulders and she falls asleep against him.
