Chapter one

An introduction to the Characters

Fang POV


It's Friday night, so I'm doing what I do every Friday night. I'm at the local teen club to play a song off my newest CD. Now you're thinking that I'm some big hot shot or something. No, not really, just in this immediate area. I'm a seventeen year old mini superstar and let me tell you, the ladies love it.

"Fang the curtain is about to go up. You ready?" The club owner, Bill, asked. I gave him my famous half smile and nodded. Standing right behind the mike I took a deep breath before the curtain rose up. I saw Lissa right up front. We have some sort of thing going on. I also so saw this girl Bridged that wants me and a girl that was hot and familiar but I didn't know who she was.

"The song I'm singing is I Dare You off of my new CD." I introduced the song. Almost everyone applauded besides the familiar looking girl, then I started to sing.

Hello, let me introduce you to

The characters in the show

One says yes, one says no

Decide - which voice in your head you can keep alive

Even in madness, I know you still believe

Paint me your canvas so I become

What you could never beI dare you to tell me to walk through fire

wear my soul and call me a liarI dare you to tell me to walk through fire

I dare you to tell meI dare you to

Hello, are you still chasing

The memories in shadows

Some stay young, some grow old

Come alive, there are thoughts unclear

You can never hide

Even in madness, I know you still believe

Paint me your canvas so I become

What you could never be

I dare you to tell me to walk through fire

wear my soul and call me a liar

I dare you to tell me to walk through fire

I dare you to tell me

I dare you to

Hello

Hello...

I dare you to tell me to walk through fire

Brand my soul and call me a liar

I dare you to tell me to walk through fire

I dare you to tell meI dare you to

Hello...

Hello...

I dare you to tell me

I dare you to

I dare you to tell me

I dare you to

After I was done everyone was applauding, even the girl I swear I seen before. Lissa ran backstage to congratulate me and give me a huge.

"Fangy you did awesome!" Lissa cheered hugging me. It's awesome to have your own personal cheerleader.

"I know." I told her. What is she dumb? I wouldn't have a record deal if I wasn't awesome. Lissa can be so annoying some times. I was about ready to ask Lissa if she wanted to leave and go to my place so I could do the other thing I do every Friday night when I saw the familiar looking girl walk up onto the stage. The curtain was down and the background people were moving things around for the next performance. I couldn't tell you who always goes after me because I never stick around long enough to see. I have betting things to do and I think you know what.

"Hey Max you got everything ready?" Bill asked the girl. So her name was Max. where have I heard that name before?

"So Fangy you ready to go back to your place and have a little fun?" Lissa asked clinging on to me.

"Actually I thought that I ought to stay tonight. You know see the competition. Not that there really is any." I bragged.

Lissa huffed then strutted back to her seat. I walked over to the Max girl.

"I don't believe we have met." I spoke to her back. She turned around looking annoyed.

"You don't remember me. Of course you wouldn't. Ok Mr. All high and mighty lets get off of that little white horse of yours for a minute and think back to freshman year. I was your biggest completion for the school's talent show and so I wouldn't even have a chance at winning you screwed up my mike." she hissed at me. Umm… not ringing any bells.

"Oh yeah. So I never did get to hear you sing. Hopefully you can hold up to my crowd pleasing performance. Well I wish you luck." God, girls are just so much fun to tease.

"I would keep your luck id I was you. You're going to need it if you want to keep in the business." Max smirked at me then walked out on stage. When did they raise the curtain?

While Max was making her introduction about who she is and that she was going to be singing Note To Self Don't Die I made my way back to Lissa. I sat down in the seat that Max was earlier occupying and settled down to hear whether this Max girl could really sing or if she got her record deal out of pity.

I'm as blue I'm as blue as the ocean is true,

it's just reflections of the sky

I'm as cold I'm as cold as the stories you told

but never sick enough to die

Note to self don't change for anyone

Note to self don't die

Note to self don't change for anyone

Don't change just lie

I'm as sick I'm as crass as the things in your past

you wished that you could let them go

Caged Birds Caged animals starving for class

In your house when you're alone

Note to self don't change for anyone

Note to self don't die

Note to self don't change for anyone

Don't change just lie

Who do you call when you're alone

Nobody, baby

Who do you want to be, f

igure out and just let me know

Don't change,

don't change,

don't change

Just let me go

Just let me go

Just let me go

Ok so she was good. That don't mean anything.

"Let's get out of here." I said looking at Lissa expectantly.

"Finally. I call top this time." Lissa smiled and tugged me out of the club.


So you might have noticed that the characters are a little ooc, but they need to be that way. I'll try to keep them as close to the origanal as possible though. PLEASE REVIEW!
