"Hey Finn," Nick said, "how do I look."

"You look great dude," Finnick replied.

Nick was wearing a black shirt that had someone giving the horns on it. Finnick was wearing a shirt that said, "born to rock," on it.

"You look great too," Nick replied. They both thought their clothing was really edgy.

"Ah you two," Tarja said, "Mahtava. All right let's get this on the road."

"Ah yeah," Nick said as they left their apartment and got on the metro.

"So," Finnick said to Nick as they rode the train, "ya think they'll play Enter Sandcat?"

"Well of course," Nick replied, "it's their best song." He was still young and hadn't expanded his music taste yet.

"Maybe," Finnick said, "we can catch a pick from James Catfield."

"Oh shit!" Nick replied, "'twould be great!"

"Did you just say ''twould?'"

"Uh, yes," Nick replied.

They walked into the arena where the concert was happening. About 16,000 attended this event in total, as it was sold out. The venue was the old Zootopia Arena, which had been built decades prior and was already starting to fall apart (it would be replaces by a venue nearly twice the size in just over 10 years. It had U shaped seating and a floor area. The stage was put in the middle of the floor area, where Tarja followed Nick and Finnick too. They got a spot really close to the stage.

"Yo Nicky," Finnick said, "I'll pay ya if ya go in the mosh pit."

"Deal," Nick replied.

Tarja looked a bit concerned for her child.

"Well," a familiar voice said, "you'll definitely love it!"

Nick looked over to realize it was Emmitt Otterton, who he sold one of the pawpsicles to the previous day.

"Hey it's you again!" Nick said.

"And you brought a girlfriend," Finnick said, "hey I recognize you too!"

"Yeah," Ashkii Lutrana said, "I told you I'd be there with my boyfriend."

"So," Emmitt said to Ashkii, "you've seen these two as well?"

"Uhhh, yeah," Ashkii (who would eventually be known as Mrs. Otterton) said, "This one named Nick cracked a Varg Vikernes joke in public."

"Yeah I'm very proud of that one," Nick said.

"Oh he really did?" Emmitt Otterton said, "Nice. This must be your first metal concert?"

"Uh, yeah," Nick replied.

"Well you'll have a time. Also check out all the other metal bands out there. Kreator, Anthrax, Slayer, Megadeth, Iron Marten, Judas Purriest, Pantera."

"Alright," Nick said.

"Hey you," Ashkii said, "are you this kid's mom?"

"Yeah," Tarja replied.

"Well your son is really nice and so is his friend. What's your name?"

"Tarja Kettu Wilde," Nick's mother replied, "last name used to be Louhimo."

"Well, great to meet ya. I'm Ashkii Lutrana."

"And I'm Emmitt Otterton. We met each other in Sahara Square back in the spring. Turns out we both go to Zootopia University. Plus I intern at the botanic gardens"

"The two of us are trying to form a band called OrcBattle. Emmitt want's all the lyrics to be Orc themed."

"Why the hell not," Emmitt replied, "I was a total D&D kid!"

"Well you do it," Tarja replied.

"Great to meet ya," Ashkii said.

Suddenly the lights dimmed in the building as the massive crowd cheered loud. Metallicat walked onstage and opened with "So What". A mosh pit formed nearby and Nick went in. Originally a bit nervous, he then found out he was having such a great time. Finnick even went in too and they both raged throughout the show as the band churned out hit after hit. Even Tarja went in eventually and she was having fun as well. Emmitt and Ashkii were in the pit all throughout the show. Pyro was used, and so was a lot of audience interaction. Eventually they played "Enter Sandcat" which was the two tweens' favorite song which they went crazy to, and closed with Motorbreath after a nice long show.

"HOLY SHIT!" Nick said, "that was totally fucking worth it!"

"Here's five bucks for you," Finnick said.

"Plus look what I got," Nick revealed to Finnick that he caught a guitar pick from the band.

"Oh you really did it!" Finnick said, "me too!" he showed the pick he caught as well "now let's get some shirts!"

Nick and Finnick both got shirts from the band, and even got a third one just for Tarja (she really enjoyed it).

"Hey kids," Emmitt said, "look what we got!"

Ashkii and Emmitt both revealed that they caught drumsticks.

"Nice," Nick replied.

"Alright," Tarja said, "great meeting you! Gotta take these guys back. The Fennec is having a sleepover. They don't have school tomorrow."

"Well bye!" Ashkii said, "we'll get drunk while listening to some Goatenburg Death Metal back at the University!" They left.

Nick went back to his apartment.
