"Hey, were having a concert at the Beach Amphitheater, you guys wanna come? I'll get you in for free." Don said.
"Come on!" Freddy said, really not wanting to go.
"It will be an awesome show!" Taryn said.
"I told ya, I hate Dokken!" Freddy said.
"Come on Freddy, please go? Please?" Kira asked, wanting to see Dokken in concert, because she never got a chance to before.
"It's not like this is your first time to see Dokken." Freddy said.
"It will be my first Dokken show. Summer of '92 I saw Lynch Mob, not Dokken." Kira said.
"Oh, I dumped $80.00 on Lynch Mob tickets? What was I thinking?"
"You wanted me to be happy!"
"Fine, I'll go to the Dokken concert for your sake, Kira."
"Thank you Freddy." Kira said, touching his blond hair. In the dreamworld Freddy is burnt, but in the real world, her looks like he used to, blond and blue eyed. Both Freddy's made Kira go crazy.
"Uh huh." Freddy said, dreading the concert, he knew something was going to happen, but he couldn't place his finger on what.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Taryn, can I borrow one of your shirts?" Kira asked, knowing where she could get Dokken shirts of every style.
"Sure. I left most of the tank tops home, but you can wear this one." Taryn said, throwing a neon green (it was extremely bright) spandex tank top that has George Lynch on it, playing a guitar and says Dokken above George's head.
"Taryn! We all know he left the band! I know you have more Dokken shirts!" Kira said.
"Yeah, well you said it was your first Dokken show!"
"Give me that black one that says Dokken in pink glitter!" Kira said, throwing the George Lynch tank back.
"Why?"
"Because I know your wearing the Under Lock And Key era extreme hot pink spandex tube top that has Don and says 'My Heart Belongs To Don Dokken'" Kira said.
"Fine, but you spill any thing on this tank, your gonna search eBay for a replacement." Taryn said, handing Kira one of her favorite tank tops.
"Okay." Kira said, pulling on the top, then the denim mini skirt, and then she started doing her hair and make up.
Then Taryn did the same. She put on her hot pink 'My Heart Belongs To Don Dokken' tube top, a leather mini skirt, and her knee high boots.
The tube top was really nice, It had Don Dokken on it, playing the guitar, then in black letters it says "My Heart Belongs To Don Dokken".
Then Taryn put on her make up.
Then Kira noticed Freddy.
"You can't wear a sweater to this concert!" Kira said to her husband.
"Why?" Freddy asked, seeing nothing wrong with his outfit.
"Uh you don't wear sweaters to metal shows." Kira and Taryn both said.
"Well what do you want me to wear?" Freddy asked.
"I know you have your Sex Pistols shirt. Wear that." Kira said, throwing the punk shirt at Freddy.
It was better to look punk at these shows than it its to look like a Hallmark card.
Then Kira threw a pair of those pants you see the goths in Hot Topic wear at Freddy.
"Kira, he's gonna look goth." Taryn said.
"Better goth than a Christmas ad." Kira said.
So Freddy got dressed and goodness did he look like he just walked out of Hot Topic.
"Is this okay?" Freddy asked.
"Yeah. Don's waiting at the front gate to get us in so let's get out ass over to the Beach Amphitheater." Kira said.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The Beach Amphitheater was a huge venue. It was like an arena, but right by the beach.
"About time you guys came. Your seats are in the floor section, front row, center. Of course Taryn is gonna get the best spot available." Don said, putting his shoulder around Taryn.
"Oh and these, for the after party." Don said, putting V.I.P. passes around Freddy's, Kira's and Taryn's neck.
"Okay. Ratt is going on first, there set is about an hour or so, then we go on, who knows how long we'll play." Don said, leading them into the amphitheater.
"RATT? OH MY GOD! THIS IS AWESOME!" Taryn flipped out.
"Well your gonna enjoy this then!" Don said, hugging Taryn before he ran back stage.
Ratt was going to hit the stage in 30 minutes.
"Is that your guy's daughter?" A woman who was standing behind Kira and Freddy asked.
"Who, the one in the hot pink? Yeah."
"How old is she?"
"15." Kira said.
"You let her get a tattoo?"
"Well yeah."
"Well I'm just glad it's Don Dokken." The woman said.
"You have kids?" Kira asked.
"Yeah. But they are so clone like. They look fake. You daughter is really unique, that's nice to see. My daughter wouldn't be caught dead at a Dokken concert."
"Taryn would die to see a Dokken concert." Kira said.
"That's her name? Taryn?"
"Yep. Taryn." Kira said again.
"How much of a Dokken fan is she?"
"The biggest. Her room is completely Dokken. Bedding, clothes, make up, you name it she has it."
"Wow, is this Taryn's first time seeing Dokken?"
"No, she saw them 4 other times. This is my first time, I saw Lynch Mob in the summer of 1992, but I never saw Dokken." Kira said.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"PLEASE GIVE A ROCKING WELCOME TO RATT!" An announcer said, and Ratt ran onto stage and played for an hour.
Then after Ratt finished, it was time for Dokken!
Taryn screamed her head off in excitement.
"Hey! How's everybody tonight?" Don said to the screaming, adoring crowd.
Dokken opened up with "Standing In The Shadows" from the Back For The Attack album.
Then after they played a few songs, Jon Levin did a guitar solo.
"JON! I STILL LOVE YOOOOOOU!" Taryn screamed, remembering that night the two of them saw Dokken, instead of going to a school dance. They kissed while "Kiss Of Death" was being performed, and Jon told George Lynch that he would replace him.
Jon looked at Taryn.
She looks so familiar... where did I see her? Jon thought.
Then Taryn mouthed "Spring of 1988. Dokken. Springwood Arena. Kiss Of Death."
This is not Taryn from high school. I know that much. She's much too young. Jon thought, so he shook hands with Taryn and gave her a guitar pick.
"This one goes out to a dear friend of mine." Don said, looking at Taryn, right before performing "Jaded Heart".
Taryn was having a blast. She loved this. It was awesome.
After Dokken was done playing there 2 hour set, and an encore, Don said, "THANK YOU ALL FOR COMIN OUT HERE! WE HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN!".
Taryn bought a new Dokken shirt, then she, Kira, and Freddy went back stage for the big after party.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Taryn showed her V.I.P. pass to the guard, and she was granted access back stage.
"So Taryn, what ya think of the show?" Don asked.
"It kicked ass." Taryn said, grabbing a piece of shrimp from a seafood platter.
"Wait, Do you know her?" Jon asked.
"Yeah, I do. Her name is Taryn Kreuger."
"I used to go to school with a Freddy Kreuger, and I used to date a girl named Taryn. I don't remember her last name. Oh speaking of Freddy!" Jon said, as he noticed Freddy walk in with Kira.
"Jon? Dokken obsessed annoying guy Jon?" Freddy said.
"Yeah, and see where that got me?"Jon said.
"Yeah, well I don't think being a crazy fan ever got that Taryn you dated anywhere!" Freddy said, looking at Taryn.
"Jon?" Kira asked.
"Kira! You were Taryn's best friend right?"
"Yup. So I see your a rock star."
"Yup."
"So Taryn, how long you been a Dokken fan?" Jon asked.
"Uh sense last summer!" Taryn said, quickly making something up.
"More like sense 1987." Freddy said, causing Don, Taryn, and Kira to look at Freddy with a hateful glance.
"Hey can I have this?" Taryn asked, holding a can of Red Bull.
"Yeah!" Don said.
Taryn was really loving this.
"But yeah, Taryn, I used to go to school with a girl who reminds me alot like you. I dated her, we saw Dokken together once. She was the biggest fan. Her name was Taryn too, and she had the same eyes and hair you do. I could never forget those blue eyes, and those various Dokken tee shirts." Jon said.
"Do you know what happened to her?" Taryn asked, playing along.
"She got killed. People say it was one of her class mates, others said that she started to do heroin again for the first time in 2 years, and she over dosed. Others said it was suicide." Jon said, remembering the rumors that went around school after Taryn died in 1988.
"Jon, we all know she was killed by a class mate!" Kira said.
"I still don't want to think about it. I like remembering the happy times. Hanging out with Dokken after the concert, and stayin out all night." Jon said.
"What if I said that Taryn from high school wasn't dead." Don said.
"But she is. Okay? As much as I miss my first love, I'm married now." Jon said.
"Fine suit your self." Don said, hugging Taryn.
Then all you could hear was a huge CLANK.
Freddy tripped over a wire, and landed on a lamp.
"OHH THAT HURTS!" Freddy said, he was getting burned by that lamp.
"That's hot." Kira said, finding burnt Freddy sexier than nice skinned Freddy.
"DAMN IT! HE'S GETTIN BURNED!" Jon screamed, stepping away.
"Hell." Taryn said, squeezing her rock star boyfriend, Don Dokken.
"That is so hot!" Kira said again.
"Taryn, you wanna go meet Ratt? Let's go." Don said, as he and Taryn left the room.
"DON'T YOU FEEL PAIN?" Jon asked.
"No."
"This is so hot!" Kira said.
"Your sick Kira!"
"Piss off." Kira said to Jon.
Then Jon un plugged the lamp, but Freddy was still badly burnt.
Freddy now looks like the burnt dream demon he is in reality now.
"Freddy, you sooo sexy." Kira said, wrapping her arm around his shoulder.
"Thanks sweetie, now do we wanna go meet Ratt?" Freddy asked.
"Sure." Kira said, and so they went off to meet the members of Ratt.
When they got there, Don and Taryn were sitting on a leather couch.
"Where's Ratt?" Kira asked.
"They are on the bus with some female fans, if you get my drift." Taryn said, implying that the were having sex with groupies.
"Oh." Kira said, face turning white, like she walked in on Ratt and the groupies.
"Taryn, I'll see ya tommorow." Don said, as Taryn, Kira, and Freddy walked back to the motel.
What a wonderful night.
