Bring Me to Life Chapter 1, a twilight fanfic

"You don't want me?"

"No."

"SASHA YOUR ON!" I blinked my eyes coming out of my day dream and laughed.

"Jeez Marissa can't you wait, I mean come on I can run over there in about 5 seconds!" I laughed looking up in to her golden eyes. She was wearing a pink shirt that said JUICY over the front with her long blond hair tied up in a bun. Her expression made me go in to another round of laughter.

"Not when you are on in about 1 minute and you are not even dressed! Look at you! This is a fashion disaster!" she cried staring at my outfit. I was wearing jeans with a white t-shirt. God she reminded me so much of Alice.

"OK I will brb!" I yelled as I ran in to the closet. I threw on a black dress that had side cut outs. It flowed to the ground in gentle waves and it had a long diamond by my chest. It was absoultley stunning. I took out the pin in my mahogany hair and let it flow down to my back.

"Ready!" I yelled as I ran out the door with Marissa behind me. I went down the stairs and sat at the black grand piano that said my new name on it; Sasha Striker.

"Your on! Start playing!" whispered Marissa.

I began playing as the platform with me and the piano rose up to the stage.

"HOW YOU DOING TONIGHT NEW YORK!" I yelled and was welcomed with screams. I threw back my head and laughed still playing. I love the attention!

The music started out slow and flowed in to something a little bit harder and I began to sing.

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
I got up form the piano and danced across the stage.
Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything

Without thought, without voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

I punched my fist in to the air breathing hard to look exhausted.

"Thank you everybody! How did you like that first song?" I was answered with a bunch of whistles and WOO! Man these people loved me!

"Well we are going to go a little softer now! Are you guys ready for you found me?"

"WOOOOO!" I grinned.

I found God on the corner of 1st and Amistad
Where the West was all but won
All alone, smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?" He said, "Ask anything"

Where were you when everything was falling apart?
All my days were spent by the telephone that never rang
And all I needed was a call that never came
To the corner of 1st and Amistad

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late, you found me, you found me

But in the end everyone ends up alone
Losing him, the only one who's ever known
Who I am, who I'm not and who I wanna be
No way to know how long he will be next to me

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late, you found me, you found me!

The early morning, the city breaks
And I've been calling for years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never sent me no letters
You got some kind of nerve taking all I want!

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor, where were you? Where were you?

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late, you found me, you found me!

Why'd you have to wait to find me, to find me?

This song always got to me and probaly always will. It always made me think of him. Right now I really want to grab my chest and hold it. It felt like it was falling apart. Instead I just smiled and looked at the crowd. I pretended to take a swig of water but of course it was empty!

"The next song I wrote after someone who actually seemed like my immortal, but I guess not!"

I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

Thats when I happened to glance at the fith row and I saw them. There eyes were bugging out of there heads, his in particulars. I locked my golden eyes with his and took him in, his bronze tousled hair, pale bauetiful skin, and smoldering golden eyes. I tore my eyes from his and danced across the stage.

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along

When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me, me, me

I looked everywhere except at them and flowed in to the next song.

Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one, I still got the seed

My eyes connected with his when I said the next line.

You said move on, where do I go?
I guess second best is all I will know

'Cause when I'm with him I am thinking of you
(Thinking of you, thinking of you)
Thinking of you, what you would do
If you were the one who was spending the night
(Spending the night, spending the night)
Oh, I wish that I was looking into your eyes

You're like an Indian summer in the middle of winter
Like a hard candy with a surprise center
How do I get better once I've had the best?
You said there's tons of fish in the water, so the waters I will test

He was looking at my moventments whenever I moved and glared at and guys who would whistle at me.

He kissed my lips, I taste your mouth, oh!
(Taste your mouth)
He pulled me in, I was disgusted with myself

You're the best, and yes, I do regret
How I could let myself let you go
Now, now the lesson's learned
I touched it, I was burned
Oh, I think you should know!

Oh, won't you walk through?
And bust in the door and take me away?
Oh, no more mistakes
'Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay, stay

I grinned at the crowd. "How did you like that song?"

"WOOOOOO!"

"Alright next song!"

Breathe you out
Breathe you in
You keep coming back to tell me
you're the one who could have been
and my eyes see it all so clear
It was long ago and far away but it never disappears
I try to put it in the past
Hold on to myself and don't look back

I don't wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I'm out from under
I don't wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I'll get it all figured out
When I'm out from under

So let me go
Just let me fly away
Let me feel the space between us growing deeper
And much darker every day
Watch me now and I'll be someone new
My heart will be unbroken
It will open up for everyone but you
Even when I cross the line
It's like a lie I've told a thousand times

His eyes looked agonized.

And part of me still believes
When you say you're gonna stick around
And part of me still believes
We can find a way to work it out
But I know that we tried everything we could try
So let's just say goodbye
Forever

Without hestitation I went in to the next song. My eyes connected with his for this song. I let my emotions spill out from my eyes. I listed the mic to my mouth and sung.

I've never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go
Til' you opened the door
And there's so much more
I'd never seen it before
I was tryin' to fly but I couldn't find wings
But you came along and changed everything

You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me Crazier Crazier Crazier

His eyes were filled with love. Love? He didn't love me! I wish he did though.

I watched from a distance as you
Made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And you made it so real
You showed me something that I couldn't see
You opened my eyes and you made me believe

You lift my my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier crazier crazier

Ohhhh

Baby you showed me what livin' is for
I don't wanna hide anymore
Oh Ohh

You lift my feet off the ground
You take me away
You make me crazier crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier crazier crazier
Crazier Crazier

I ripped my eyes from his and looked at the cheering crowd and winked.

"Time for an awesome intermission!" I laughed as the crowd groaned. Man they love me!

"Its ok! You can buy some popcorn and throw it at me when I sing again!" The crowd laughed while I ran back stage. I ran straight to Marissa with agonized eyes.

"They are here!" I screamed at her. How can they be here! I have had enough pain for a life time!

"I know um I was going to warn you that they won the contest. Im sorry!" she cried at me. I felt kind of bad but no way was she getting out of this mess she created!

"Sorry is not enough!" I yelled as I stormed off to my dressing room. I threw on my black jeans and my black striped shirt with my black jacket over it. I slipped on my black converse and my light scarf. I need a breather tot hink things through. I putmy hair up in a pony tail and walked out on the balcony. Ok my name is Sasha Striker who has the power to change her apperance and voice. I can also control people sometimes without me knowing I am. I am not the girl who got broken hearted by E..Edward Cullen. I am not Isabella Swan. I am a vampire singer. Sigh that didnt help one bit. I glanced down and saw a man standing in the parking lot pinching the bridge of his nose. It was Edward. He glanced at the forest and sighed.

"SASHA COME ON!" yelled Marissa. Edward spun around and looked at me. Our eyes locked and a warm tingle went through my body. I ran back in and so did Edward.

"I'm ready!" I yelled running back to the stage. Dang ti this is gonna be one heck of a concert.
