Oh my GD.
10 chapters.
I'm like a motherfucking boss.
Thanks so much for the reviews and I'm sorry this is short and I didn't update yesterday! I was watching City Hunter...
I think Allen's plan is obvious, but I'm trying my best to make it as dramatic as possible. Sorry if you're disappointed, but the future assasins should be much more fun.
I actually asked my dad bout this..."Dad...what if there was a singer...and he died because of a problem on stage...but not like lighting or explosions...something more dramatic..."
"...What the hell are you talking about?"
Allen twisted the key and yanked open the door.
"I can't believe they have a whole room for their props," the backstage staff next to him muttered, "Their god damn prop room is bigger than my own room…"
He took a peek in the room and gave a low whistle, "This place is a Halloween fair…"
The staff member snorted, "I know right? Let's just get the props and load 'em in the van before the boss yells at us for being late, Dan."
" 'Kay, Chris," Allen nodded to the staff worker and turned back to the room.
The entire place was gothic, punk, metal, and black. Some of the props looked much too realistic to be fake and Allen handled them very carefully, overcoming his irrational fear of the wax figurines and models as he did so.
"I got the drapes and curtains…damn, they're heavy. Could you get the rest?" Chris heaved, holding four rolls of gigantic purple and black cloth that had been purposely shredded for effect.
"Sure," Allen nodded as he left.
He shoved his hand in his back pocket and pulled out a list of the props necessary for the Jasdevi concert that night, whilst sighing, "Daniel…Sebastian…how many fake names does a person need?"
"Let's see…Curtains (2), check…Drapes (2) check…Wigs…where's that blonde wig…?" Allen rummaged through the junk and pulled out a cardboard box labeled, "Wigs". He plucked out a long haired, platinum blonde, "Here we go…darts…where the heck am I gonna find darts...and the board for crying out loud?"
This was turning out to be a really weird concert.
Chris came back in with an empty cardboard box, "Toss the stuff in here and bring 'em to the van. The boss just told me to go to the stage and set up the curtains…dammit…"
"Thanks," Allen grinned as he dropped the wigs in.
"No prob," Chris shrugged and left.
"Alright…darts…" Allen managed to track down a set of darts that were in black and purple along with a dart board shaped like a bleeding heart, "Talk about sappy…"
He tossed it in the box and read through the list, "Curtains…Drapes…Wigs…Darts and board…oh, I forgot…that Devit person needs a fake handgun…"
Allen tossed in the gun in the box and read his list over again, "Bloody hell…they need a butcher knife…and a figurine of a child…what kind of concert is this?"
He sighed as he rummaged around again looking for the props.
"The trial has begun!"
"Look, Jasdero and Devit's New York midnight concert started!" Rhode screamed as she ran over to the TV at 8 PM.
"Rhode, aren't you going to finish dessert?" Lulu Bell called, "I even made a cake…"
Rhode looked back at her older sister with eyes torn between the two things she loved most in the world – her family and sweets.
Lulu Bell sighed, "Fine, we'll eat in the living room."
Rhode cheered as the French woman brought the cake and muttered, "What does Jasdero and Devit think they're doing promoting such bloody violence…?"
"Even the most disgusting criminal will be freed if they can pay the price; after all, money is the best judge in hell!"
Rhode grinned wider as Jasdero held up a butcher knife and thrust it into the chest of the figurine of a child that had been innocently standing next to the drummer as he sang, "Your life is now in my hands; you are a victim of my JUDGEMENT OF CORRUPTION!
"Did Jasdevi's concert begin?" Tyki asked as he plopped down onto the couch next to his sisters, "Hm…Isn't this song –"
"Judgement of Corruption! It's my favorite out of all the songs they've written so far!"
"You only like their cheesy stage effects…" Lulu muttered under her breath.
Rhode hadn't heard her.
"The guilty laugh and innocent cry in my court!
If you wanted salvation, then you should have begged; you are at the mercy of my JUDGEMENT OF CORRUPTION!"
Jasdero held up a black dark and threw it at Devit who held the board in his hands, "Even if other humans are ruined for crimes they did not commit, it is their fault, for they cannot pay!"
The board was crashed onto the cymbals of the drums and abandoned as they continued, "Am I going to Heaven? Am I going to Hell? The Lucifer is to decide such a thing!
Even the most disgusting criminal will be freed if they can pay the price; after all, money is the best judge in hell!
I smile as I whisper into the Lucifer's ears, 'I won't ever hand my fortune to the likes of you!'
He simply smiled as he waves a hand' my body flies into the gates…"
Devit held up a fake, but realistic handgun and pulled the trigger. The background sound effects made a loud popping noise as though he had actually shot himself and he dropped his head, "I fall into the deepest, most filthy place, made for me as I fall to Hell!"
Rhode's grin had become a Cheshire face-split as her smile stretched from ear to ear.
"But even if I fall into Hell, I will return with my sins in hand…until then, Hell will become my utopia!"
The song ended with the sound of the electric guitar and bursts of flames from the ends of the stage as the crowd cheered.
"That was Jasdevit, bitches!" Jasdero shrieked into the microphone, resulting in major screams of approval from the audience.
The TV suddenly shut off and Rhode's wide grin dropped, "Hey…what…?"
"The concert's over, isn't it?" Lulu sighed as she dropped the remote and stood up.
"The concert still has about three more songs! They're taking a break!" Rhode frowned as she grabbed the remote.
"I still don't approve of you watching them. They have very dirty mouths, something inappropriate for a lady to listen to."
"I don't care. I like Jasdevi," Rhode insisted as she turned the TV back on.
Lulu Bell sighed as she left the room.
"Jasdevi from Noah's Ark Entertainment, hell yeah!" Jasdero continued to jump around the stage as Devit laughed.
"We're having our next concert in L.A. California, so if you can, be there!"
Another roar of approval.
"JD in LA from NAE!" Devit screamed as the crowd chanted their names.
"Jasdevi! Jasdevi! Jasdevi!"
From the living room, their little sister smiled, whispering to herself, "Jasdevi. Jasdevi. …Come home soon…"
"I.D. please?" the security guard asked.
Kanda, Lavi, and Rinali flashed their fake I.D.s and the guard nodded, allowing them entrance.
"Be careful with that thing! It could kill someone!" Tewaku snapped as the backstage crew hoisted up lights onto the ceiling of the stage, "I'm not going to save an idiot if he falls or drops something!"
"Geez, Leila, be a bit nicer," Lavi called to the small medical staff.
"I'll try being nicer when you try being smarter," Tewaku snapped.
"Hey, Haru, could you bring the props over?" another staff member tapped Kanda on the back, "Short stack should've left it in the van."
"Short stack…?" Kanda raised a brow.
"You know, Dan. The midget dude?"
Kanda held in a snort, "You mean bean sprout?"
The staff member chuckled, "That's original. Anyway, could you go get them? Short stack's on break."
Kanda nodded and left for the supplies.
"Hey, the lighting dudes. Lunch break. Let's finish it up later."
"We're almost done anyway…let's go," the people in charge of the stage lighting jumped down from their ladders and filed out to the far back where the picnic tables of the park were.
Rinali and Lavi pretended to look extremely busy with whatever there was on the side of the stage as they all filed out, leaving the two alone.
Lavi counted.
"One…two…"
"Three."
Rinali ran over and stood as lookout as Lavi ran over to the ends of the stage where there were little devices that gave off bright flames and lights. He began to install a small bomb.
"Hurry…" Rinali called, "The manager just finished giving a speech to the staff…he's coming this way to check the stage!"
Lavi fumbled with the small device as he planted it inside the flamethrowers.
"Aaaaaaaand DONE!" He shot up and the two ran to the right stairs of the stage and ducked out of view.
"Hm…not bad, not bad at all," the manager mumbled as he walked about the stage.
"Where's the button to the bomb?" Lavi asked.
"Allen has it," Rinali whispered back.
"It doesn't seem any different than our original plan of blowing them up to kingdom come," he sighed as the two crept back to the picnic tables.
"I know…I just hope he knows what he's doing."
"Concert starts in 10 minutes! Get ready!" Lavi called to the makeup artists and Jasdero and Devit.
"We're almost done," one of the makeup artists replied as Lavi left.
"Hey Devit, have you played Russian Roulette before?"Jasdero asked.
"Nah, I have horrible luck. Why?" He replied as he flipped the page of the magazine he was reading while the hair stylist worked on his hair.
"…We have a rat backstage. He's asking for a challenge. And it's your turn."
"The trial has begun!"
Yes, the song is Judgement of Corruption by Akuno-P and sung by Kaito. It's not really a rock song, but I wanted the lyrics to mean something and I couldn't find a good song that wasn't cliche like something from Linkin Park. I edited some of the lyrics and stuff...you should listen to it. I wrote a radio play about the song for Language Arts :)
By the way, Nasha Rei-Kun asked for AllenxRoad or AllenxFou. I haven't read or written any fics about it, but I can research if you want and add fluff and such. Honestly, I'd rather not have that much romance going on between Allen and co. but I don't see why I shouldn't comply to (probably her) her wishes.
And arkee, yeah, I just noticed that. I can't believe that the writer didn't realize that...
Yellow Watermelons, I love you. In the most straight way possible. Your reviews just make me smile.
And You Still Love Me, I'm sorry about the light Yullen there. I read a lot of Yullen fics before, so it might have rubbed off here. I'll try to look out for any signs of Yullen and do something about them :)
Thanks for reading and I am now on my knees for reviews!
Next chapter should be more interesting!
