(A/I means Authoresses Interlude)
Chapter One: It Begins...
It was around 9:30p.m & a girl was backstage waiting for her turn on stage. Let me describe her for you.
She was sixteen, her birthday was on Oct. 31st.
She had bright blue eyes with a dark red ring in them.
She had shoulder length brown hair with dark red streaks. Her bangs were dark red, they framed her face, & reached past her chin. The tips of her hair were kinda spikey.
She wore a black spaghetti strap tanktop that said: 'Don't hate me because I'm hot. Hate me because you're boyfriend thinks I am.', a pair of blue jeans with the knees ripped out & a black studded belt, a pair of black fingerless gloves, & a pair of black & white checkered converse sneakers with pink laces with black stars. She also had a pair of black aviator goggles on her forehead.
She wore a charm bracelet with at least twenty-five different charms on it. She had four small silver hoops in each ear. She wore a dark red jewel pendant around her neck along with a black choker with a dark red flame charm hanging from it as well as a silver heart shaped locket. Her nails were painted black & she had on dark red eyeshadow.
Oh, and she was a mutant with the ability to copy any power she wanted.
Finally her turn came up.
"And now the girl you've all been waiting for... PHOENIXFLARE!" An eighteen year old guy announced her as she walked up & everyone hollered.
Turning to the band she nodded & they started to play.
Sweet Sacrifice
By: Evanescence
It's true, we're all a little insane
But it's so clear
Now that I'm unchained
Fear is only in our minds
Taking over all the time
Fear is only in our minds
But it's taking over all the time
You poor sweet innocent thing
Dry your eyes and testify
You know you live to break me- Don't deny
Sweet sacrifice
One day I'm gonna forget your name
And one sweet day,
You're gonna drown in my lost pain
Fear is only in our minds
Taking over all the time
Fear is only in our minds
But it's taking over all the time
You poor sweet innocent thing
Dry your eyes and testify
And oh you love to hate me don't you, Honey?
I'm your sacrifice
I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
Erase the silence
Erase my life
Our burning ashes
Blacken the day
A world of nothingness
Blow me away
Do you wonder why you hate?
Are you still to weak to survive?
You poor sweet innocent thing
Dry your eyes and testify
You know you live to break me- Don't deny
Sweet sacrifice
"Aw, come on Phoenix, give us something new." The guy said into him mic. The girl, Phoenix, grinned at him.
"Fine you want new, I'll give you new." She told him with a smirk.
She whispered something to the leader of the band, a guy with black hair with blonde tips. He smirked & nodded his head at the band.
Fighting Fire With Fire
By: 'PhoenixFlare' (A/I: I just thought this song up, beware of suckyness)
It all started with a smirk
I can't believe that
I couldn't see through that jerk
But he set my heart on fire
And made my senses fly higher
Than ever before
But now I'm fighting fire with fire
Getting him back for everything
Ever since I found out
The truth behind that liar
I'm giving him a taste of his medicine
Fighting fire with fire
(Fire with fire)
Can't wait to see his face
When he realized
I'm not just a pretty face
I'll put him through his pace
But now I'm fighting fire with fire
Getting him back for everything
Ever since I found out
The truth behind that liar
I'm giving him a taste of his medicine
Fighting fire with fire
Fighting fire with fire
Fire with fire
Fire with fire
I'm fighting fire with fire
(You're such a damn liar)
Phoenix finished singing her song, giving the guy a smirk.
"Nice, you should go pro, Phoenix. Speaking of which, since tonight is your final performance, how about finally telling us your name?" He told her.
"You really wanna know?" She asked & everyone screamed 'YES!' at the top of their lungs.
"Fine, but no stalking me. My name is... Kaia Kaze Hikaru a.k.a: PhoenixFlare." She told them with a grin.
"Nice name, Phoenix. So, mind filling us all in on why this is your last perfomance?" He asked.
"I'm going to a new school in New York, on a scholarship." She told him.
"Well, I hope you have fun, but how about you sing for us some more?" He asked.
She smirked & nodded to the band.
The Only One
By: Evanescence
You know you're not the only one
When they all come crashing down - midflight
You know you're not the only one
When they're so alone
They find a back door out of life
You know you're not the only one
We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding
All our lives
We've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies
I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me
So afraid to open your eyes - hypnotized
You know you're not the only one
Never understood this life
And you're right I don't deserve
But you know I'm not the only one
We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding
All our lives
We've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies
I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me
Don't look down
Don't look into the eyes
Of the world beneath you
Don't look down, You'll fall down
You'll become their sacrifice
Right or wrong
Can't hold onto the fear
That I'm lost without you
If I can't feel, I'm not mine
I'm not real
All our lives
We've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies
I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me
She finished her song and finally headed home to her apartment. As she pulled up to the complex and got out of her car, a guy jumped her.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? Why is someone as pretty as you all alone on a Saturday night? How's about you & me have a little fun?" The guy asked her.
"I have a better idea, LET'S NOT!" She said as she elbowed the guy in the gut & then hit him with a sauce pan she pulled out of her purse.
"Bitch, your gonna pay for that." He snarled. he ran at her & aimed to hit her in the stomach but she dodged & he punched the wall behind her, which succeded in breaking his hand.
"Aw, did the big tough guy break his hand? Why don't I kiss it & make it all better?" She said as she did a kick to his stomach while he recovered from the hand into wall incident.
"Give up yet? 'Cause I can do this all night if need be, dumbass." She told him.
"I'm outta here!" He said & he ran off.
"I guess he was all talk & no bite. That sucks, I was lookin' forward to a good fight." Kai said as she walked up the stairs to her second story apartment.
She opened her door & flicked on her light & shrieked when she found three people in her living room.
"HOLY FUCKING GODDAMN SHIT!" She shrieked, jumping five feet in the air & nearly fazing through her floor & into her best friend's apartment.
"Kai, damn it! Be quiet, I'm trying to sleep!" Came a muffled yell from under her ass.
"Excuse me one sec..." She said & she fazed her head through the floor & said something to her best friend, Trinity.
"NO EFFING WAY!" Came the reply to whatever she said. There was a slamming of a door & a the 'thud' of someone running up stairs & suddenly Kai's front door opened & a girl ran in. She had blonde hair with light blue streaks & her eyes were emerald green with an ice blue ring in them. She wore a dark blue Breaking Alice t-shirt & a pair of dark blue shorts with a white stripe up the sides.
Kai, who had just gotten up, walked around her & closed the front door.
"What, no 'OH MY GOD THE X-MEN ARE IN KAI'S LIVING ROOM!'? I'd of thought you'd have fainted or something, but I guess I was wrong." Kai said to Trini.
"I'll faint later, when I'm in my apartment & I don't have to worry about fazing through your floor & my ceiling." Trini told her.
"Ok, down to business, why are you here?" Kai asked.
"If this has anything to do with your school, we've already got it set up to head out tomorrow. Everyone thinks we have a scholarship to a prestige(sp?) school in New York & that we have to leave tomorrow to get good dorm rooms." Trini told them.
"Well, that certainly was unexpected. Why don't you just come back to the mansion tonight?" Prof. Xavier asked.
"Can we bring our cars?" They asked in unison.
And that is how one hour later Kai & Trini, along with their cars, were on the X-Jet headed to Xavier's School For Gifted Younsters.
Kai: Chapter one is done!
Trini: Please Read & Review!
Both: Ja ne!
