Back in the tour bus again, Melody sat with the brothers. Joe was icing his back. Melody didn't realize how much force she had used to body-slam him.
Mr. Jonas walked up to the four sitting on the bus. "I just got off the phone with a social security worker in Olympia. She'll pick Melody up after the show."
"Thanks Mr. Jonas," Melody said and he walked back to the front of the bus.
Joe groaned as he sat up.
"Oh, stop being such a baby," Melody teased.
"You try being pushed to the ground with the force of a pro wrestler and see how you feel afterward." Joe retorted back.
"Well at least we know who's left," said Nick.
"Who?" Melody said.
"Me," said Kevin. Melody realized he was right. Nick and Joe had both been targeted. Only one brother remained. "And I'm not staying to find out if this psycho kills me or all three of us."
"What?" Melody, Nick, and Joe asked.
"When we stop next for our concert in Olympia, Washington, I'm leaving the band."
The other three stared at him in disbelief. "That's crazy Kevin," said Nick.
"If it stops this person from killing us than I'm going to do it,"
"It might not," said Melody.
"What do you mean?" asked Kevin.
"If she is going after individual Jonas Brothers, it won't matter where you are. She'll find you and kill you. You're much safer if you're here with us," said Melody.
"She's right you know," said Joe, "And even if she does kill you, we'll be fine."
"YOU"RE NOT HELPING," Nick yelled at Joe. He turned back to Kevin, "Seriously man, you'll be fine as long as we have Melody."
"Yeah," Melody said. She didn't feel the need to add that she wasn't going to be with them after this show. Kevin didn't need another reason to leave.
"Okay, I'll stay," said Kevin. He sat down beside Melody.
"Plus we haven't even gotten a letter yet, so she probably won't strike again," said Joe.
"Yeah," said Melody. She looked out the window at the passing scenery. She wasn't at all convinced by Joe's comment.
