Chapter 2

"Ranele, Ranele, Ranele..."

The magnanimous stadium was packed to the brim. Flashing lights danced about the stage: each beam bouncing and twirling in every direction like a luminous cabaret. The projection screens surrounding displayed the countdown as thousands of fans cheered in every direction for the world's number one idol. Outside of the massive dome, red carpet reporters spoke energetically regarding the concert they were about to witness.

"She's done it again folks! After three platinum records and seventeen music awards, Ranele is about to perform the second to final concert in her world tour! All around me, the crowd is going wild!"

"That's right Vuitna! People everywhere are tuning in to witness the biggest event this city has ever seen! I can't wait to see what the performance will be like- Ranele never does the same concert twice!"

Behind velvet curtains, she listened to the harmonic cries beckoning for her presence. After applying the final touches of her make-up, brushing her side-swiped bangs from her eyes, flipping the ends of her golden hair, humming several practice notes and finally adjusting her awe-inspiring engagement ring: she arose from the lighted vanity and paced slowly, anticipating with exhilaration. Within seconds, the stage manager approached her from behind and tapped her shoulder.

"Ranele, you're on."

Her aquamarine eyes brightened, lips forming a soft smile. The stage was her canvas, the crowd her muses, her voice the art. The world was at her fingertips; it was her time to shine.

'I am ready.'

Once timers struck zero; the stadium became immersed in darkness. The crowd automatically became silent, despite their edacious cries moments before. Amidst the stillness, a single spotlight awakened, revealing the blonde superstar standing motionless in a red satin ballgown. She looked upon the masses for a brief second, closed her eyes, and began to sing.

"Ahhh, ah ah ah ah..."

The tranquil sound of Ranele's alluring phonation floated about the dais, resulting in piercing shrills of joy from the masses. As the last note of melodic coloratura passed from her lips, loud bass pumped in the speakers, following with large bursts of electrical rage instantaneously consuming the singer and stage.

"Vuitna, what's happening inside?"

"I don't know Bobba! people are screaming, and the stage is electrocuting! Quite shocking indeed!"

Thunderous bolts thrashed ravenously like pillars of fire, entrancing the audience with blinding pulsations. The masses continued to cheer viciously as the lightning reached maximum climax of power, opening forth to expose the stunning vocalist: arms over her head, coquetry in her eyes, and a seducing smirk across her lips. Ranele was wearing a polar opposite outfit from her gown: black shorts, a yellow tank top with a lightning bolt studded in gold sequins, eight-inch stiletto heels, and 12 gold bracelets on her left arm: tied together by the shocking current of static lightning. She treaded sensually across the stage, twirling to the rhythm of the music.

"This is a total first for Ranele, I have never seen a performance like this!"

"That's right everyone! In her hometown concert: she really has pulled off all the stops tonight!"

Once she reached center stage, she began to sing once more, blending sweet tones with raging rhythm:

"The rain is falling outside

Storm clouds arising

Nowhere else to hide

Static colliding..."

She pivotted and gyrated, mesmerizing the audience with each sway of her hips. The lightning soon began to release more dancers, following the moves of Ranele's body. Fans in the pit began to bound with the beat, creating more excitement throughout the theater.

"...We're running out of time, oh

Coming closer, striking the floor

Hear the thunder, watch it roar!"

The lights began to strobe, tantilizing both reporters and audience alike.

"Thunder bolts! Thrashing the dance floor-

Hurricanes! Releasing

All we have, is this night together

Shock me with your touch."

The stage burst into electric rage as Ranele and her back-up dancers vibrated and jerked to the dubstep beats filling the stadium.

"Bobba, I have never seen a performance from such an amazing artist ever in my life! All I can say is her fiancé made a right decision to hire her to SICEL records and then ask her to marry her! Truly amazing!

"I could not agree more Vuitna!"

Within several minutes, the beats the electricity and the aggression slowly died, only remaining Ranele and a simple piano riff.

"Falling rain- and lightning,

static colliding.

Hurricanes- releasing,

shock me with your touch."

With her last sentence, the stage released a final burst of raging thunder and lights, immediately dispersing into darkness. It was her greatest performance.
