The audience erupts into applause as their favorite German band 'Sehnsucht' finishes their last song of the concert. The band looks out to the audience of 12,000 fans, they smile, wave and then finally all take a bow and walk off stage. Feeling pumped from the energy of all those fans, and extremely tired from the 3 hour, flame filled concert, the band make their way backstage to congratulate themselves on the last concert of their 5th tour.
Making their way backstage, they are pleasantly surprised to see that the staff have provided them with plenty of alcohol, food and quite a few beautiful women. They sink into their comfy leather seats and relax.
"Ahhh...
another tour over... drink up boys!" Richard states; Richard is
one of the guitarist of the band, he is also the one who formed the
band 14 years ago. They all raise their glasses and make a
toast.
"To the best damn tour we have even done, and for the
next one to be even bigger and better!" Paul announces and they
all cheer. Paul is another guitarist of the band, he's know as 'the
funny one' of the group.
Over the next few hours, the band have plenty to drink, talk absolute crap and watch the gorgeous women dancing to their favorite music.
"Well,
we better head of boys, lots of press in the morning... very... very
early in the morning" Till sighs and gets up; Till is the lead
singer of the band, he is the more dominate one in the group as he is
quite clearly the strongest. A very drunk Christian, more commonly
know as 'Flake' the keyboardist, he is also the skinniest German
you'll ever meet, gets up with Till, as well as Oliver the bass
player, who is the youngest, calmest, and tallest one of the group.
The standing three, look at the three sitting down, when Christoph
the drummer, or Schneider as he is commonly known says;
"Yeah...
we're going to have a couple more drinks... but, we will see you back
at the hotel." Till smiles and nods and the three walk out.
The hotel is quite close so they decide to walk; It is pitch black and freezing outside, Flake starts walking in front, by walking I mean, swaying and occasionally dancing with the odd tree. Till and Oliver walk behind him.
"I
wonder why he is so drunk, yet we are fine and we have drunk the
same." Oliver says to Till in his awesome German accent.
"I
think, it is that he is so small" Till answers and they both
laugh. The rest of the walk to the hotel is in silence, they all want
to get back quickly to get out of the freezing cold. As they reach
the door, Till suddenly stops. Flake doesn't see this and continues
into the hotel, but Oliver does.
"Till... you okay?" he
asks, looking at Tills completely blank expression.
"Can you hear that?" Till responds, now with a focused face. Oliver try's to listen but can only hear the sounds of the hotel; so he moves next to Till and listens deeply. Then he hears what Till hears, it was extremely faint but it was definitely the most beautiful singing voice the two had ever heard.
He also managed to notice that the voice was singing one of the bands songs; it was only one line, but she kept repeating it, it was almost like a lullaby. The boys look at each other both with curious expressions. Till slowly starts walking towards the voice, away from the hotel; Normally Oliver would tell Till to come back and ignore it, but this voice was so amazing that he was also attracted to it, so he follows Till. It's not long until they figure out where the voice is coming from, they find themselves standing at the top of an even darker alleyway, they both feel they must go on, so they venture forwards.
