Rising Star Prologue/Teaser


Hundreds of screaming fans surrounded the stage, each routing on
the newest sensation,
singing along with the vibrant male. The electric beat thundered
through the area
accompanied by sweet vocals.

`Funny how everything changes for me
Memories take me away
Each time I open the door to my room
Where I must stay in all day
I don't want to be here, I'm much too tired
So I close my eyes and, `snap', I'm with you
We are on vacation, you and me together'

A toned body moved with the rhythm of the song, in a complex
series of choreography.
His red hair messy, obscuring one light green eye. Spinning on
stage, allowing the music
to overcome his soul, he continued to sing with fervor.

`Lying in the sunshine
I travel to Romantis
I travel to Romantis
Where nothing but the blue skies
Will tell me that the time flies
I travel to Romantis
Everytime I think of you'

********************
In one of the many safehouses, the other four pilots sat watching
the concert. Seeing
someone their age so happy brought pangs within each of their
hearts. No one knew why,
but all four of them where drawn to this new Rising Star. Two months
had passed since
that fateful night when Shinigami finally left them for good, the
same night when `Adam'
made his debut.
//gods, I miss him// Heero's thoughts always were on his lost
beloved. Ever since that
night, he was more closed off than usual. Spending more time
in `their' room, sleeping in
his bed, anything to keep his presence with him. //Wait for me
Duo//. All was quiet,
except for the television, where `Adam' was performing for the first
time.

*******************

Adam walked to his dressing room, tired from the performance he
just gave. Running
into various backstage workers, stopping him to congratulate him.
Smiling and thanking
them all, he finally made it back to his room. Locking the door, he
moved to the chair in
front of the mirror. Light green eyes, short wavy red hair, tanned
skin, putting on his
trademark smile, that didn't reach his eyes, he closed his eyes and
gave out a deep sigh.
Minutes passed and he just sat there recollecting his thoughts, his
hand moving to grasp
the single gold cross that hung from his neck in a involuntary
gesture from times past.

"Adam, time to go home" his manager said through the door.

Opening his eyes, he got up from his seat and left the room.
