"Unbelievable!" Gilda growled as she tried frantically to open the door to her apartment with her key. Nothing was working, and the frustration and anger inside her was
about to boil over.

After about two minutes of trying the key, pounding on the door and attempting to ram it open. She finally gave up and turned her attention to the end of the hallway
where the landlord's room was located.

"That dweeb messed with the wrong girl." She said to herself as she stormed down the hall towards his room.

She only had to give the wooden door two loud knocks before she heard footsteps approaching from the inside.

"Gilda?" the landlord called out, his voice obviously shaky and nervous. "We gave you plenty of opportunities to pay your rent. I'm sorry but you no longer live
here."

Gilda clenched both of her fist tightly in utter fury. "Open this door and face me like the pathetic little worm you are!"

There was a slight pause before the landlord replied. "I'm not going to do that, Gilda. I've seen how you handle your battles. It always ends with either someone getting hurt mentally, or in some instances physically."

"Those two dweebs picked the wrong day in moving that piano in front of me" She muttered. She was never the patient type.

"The little belongings you had are downstairs by my office" the landlord said softly. "Best of luck to you, Gilda. I hope you can find a place to stay at."

Gilda just rolled her eyes.

"This is the worst day ever!" she thought.

"This is the best day ever!" Sonata Dusk exclaimed proudly to herself as she walked out of Taco Palace, a bag of deliciousness in her hand.

Sonata loved tacos. She loved the taste of them so much. Every Tuesday she would head over to Taco Palace and pick up a few yummy tacos to feast on.

As she walked along the sidewalk through town, she suddenly felt the presence of someone near by watching her every move. She looked around for the source of her uneasiness, but it was hard for her to see since it was now night time.

"Anypon...I mean anybody there?" the blue haired siren girl called.

Silence and cricket chirping was her reply. She let out a sigh.

"Get a hold of yourself, Sonata" she said to herself out loud. "It's just your imagination messing around with you. There's nobody watching..."

Before she could finish her sentence, a shadowy figure appeared from an alleyway in front of her. Sonata gave a terrified shriek and jumped in surprised.

The shadowy figure quickly reached out it's hand and grabbed the bag of tacos from the poor girl's clutches. As they turned to run away with the food, Sonata all of the sudden sprang into action and tackled the figure mid-air.

"Ow!" Gilda cried out as they fell onto the ground. "Get off me!"

Sonata snatched up her taco bag and got off of the thief. "Never mess with my tacos, especially on a Tuesday!"

Gilda sighed as she slowly got up from the ground. Clearly she had underestimated this girl.

"Look" Gilda said. "I need something to eat. I haven't eaten in like a day. I get a little testy when I haven't eaten in a long time."

Sonata chuckled. "Then why don't you go and get your own silly."

Gilda shot her an evil glare. "I would if I could afford some! I'm homeless ya dork!"

"For realsies?" Sonata asked with a look of concern. "Aw, you poor thing. Wanna stay with me at my home till you get off your feet?"

"Get on your feet." Gilda corrected her.

"Yeah, that's what I totally said." Sonata replied with a smile.

Gilda let out another sigh. "Fine. But as long as ya don't get on my bad side."

Sonata scratched her head. "You have a bad side? Is it by your ear?"

Gilda facepalmed as Sonata began looking into each of her ears. "It's a figure of speech!"

"Oh. Right." Sonata answered with an innocent chuckle.

Gilda shook her head. Boy, this was off to a great start.

"Before we go anywhere, let me introduce myself" Sonata said. "I'm Sonata. So what's your name?"

"Gilda."

Off To A So-So Start

"So what do you think?" Sonata asked as they both stepped into into the siren girl's apartment.

Gilda looked around the room in complete disbelief. This room was a whole lot nicer and slightly more spaceous than the one she had. She wondered how this geeky blue girl could afford all this.

"It's alright I guess." She responded.

Sonata walked over to her small kitchen area in the corner of the room and sat the bag of tacos down on the counter. She immediately began going through and taking everything out, the eroma of the mouth watering food filled the room in an instant.

"So, how many of those tasty things do I get?" Gilda asked as she quickly made her way over to the kitchen.

Sonata grinned. "Halfsies. Two for me and two for you."

Gilda took a seat, glanced down at the delicious tacos in front of her and sighed. She was hoping for more, but I this would have to do.

"What kind of tacos are these anyway?"

"Palace Royals" Sonata replied with her mouth full.

Gilda stared blankly at her new roommate. She clearly had no idea what a Palace Royal was.

The blue siren shook her head in dissapointment. "It's a larger version of the regular taco. Duh!"

"Whatever." Gilda muttered. The conversation was going absolutely nowhere.

-------

After dinner, Sonata took Gilda on a small tour of her apartment. As she talked and talked about where certain items were located, Gilda could feel her patience running thin. She hated it when people talked too much about things she didn't even care about in the first place.

"Well, that's everything." Sonata concluded finally as the two girls made their way over to the living room area.

Gilda let out a sigh of relief and fell on to the turquiose couch in front of her.

"You seem tired." Sonata said as she took a seat next to her.

"Nah, ya think?" Gilda grumbled sarcastically. "I really didn't need to know how the sink, toilet and shower works. It's common sense. We could have saved so much
time."

Sonata giggled. "If Aria and Adagio were still here, you three would get along so great!"

Gilda scratched her white hair in confusion. "So you had roommates before?"

"They were my friends" Sonata sighed sadly. "My family, my bandmates, my world."

"They ditched ya, didn't they?" Gilda asked with a cold chuckle. "Been there. Can't rely on anyone for loyalty these days."

Sonata turned her head and looked away. This conversation was becoming way too personal and melancholy.

"Can we not talk about this right now?"

With a roll of her eyes, Gilda slowly nodded. "Fine. Whatever."

The two sat in silence for a few moments. Then Sonata cleared her throat and spoke.

"Wanna hear a funny joke I heard?"

"Is it funny?" Gilda irritably replied.

Sonata nodded. "Two moo cows walk into a bar..."
