"This is not a happy story...there will be no shinning hope...no salvation. Darksouls descend as they get lost in one another-" Tao sang softly to himself as he prepared for his gig, pinning his long plaits securely in an intricate updo. No need for makeup to complete his traditional geiko appearance, being ghastly pale with black tattooed lips. His elaborate kimono worn right over left. He licked over his teeth, tonguing his dull acrylic fangs as he looked at himself in the mirror.<br/>There was a gloom about him that didn't used to be there. Things weren't the same, he glanced at his hot pink cellphone that sat on his vanity table. The phone had childish doodlings on it of unicorns and other cutesy things drawn in black permanent marker. His long thin fingers gently caressed the phone as he lost himself in thought.<br/>A knock at the door drew him back to reality and he abruptly picked his phone up and tucked it away in his instrument case after picking up his guitar which matched his phone. "Lets go Baby." he uttered as he carefully made his way out of his dressing room.
