Musical Worlds Collide

Author's note: I know it's been nearly a couple of months, but I got caught up in other things in my personal life, as well as not touching this story for a while. I will try to come up with more stories for this soon. I still have some ideas.

Jeanna Slick, Floyd Stone, and Allen Ash were in the cafeteria in the safe house discussing their future gigs and how their most recent gig was what they initially thought was a success, despite performing in front of a horde of zombies.

"I cannot believe we played for the undead," said Floyd, still a little shocked how the band performed in front of zombies. "I really thought we had a bunch of people rocking out to us, mate."

"Even though the audience was dead, love," said Jeanna. "No one has been more into our shows. Sure, when we played in London, Newcastle, Leeds, Manchester, all of our bloody fans went wild, but not as wild as them zombies."

"I disagree, Jeanna," Allen said, after drinking some water. "I thought some of our shows back home were even more tough. We played in front of a bunch of bloody zombies."

Jeanna doesn't quite agree with Allen's opinion, neither does Floyd. "I don't know, Allen. I thought it was crazy when Floyd smashed his guitar onto the stage and a lot of the zombies just blew up like that."

Bibi walks into the cafeteria and looks for something to drink because she is a little stressed after what she had gone through. She did not realize at first that she sang in front of a horde of zombies.

"Oh my, I cannot believe I sang in front lots of fans," Bibi said as she got out a bottle of water from the refrigerator in the cafeteria. "I can't believe my fans tried to eat me."

The members of Angel Lust look up at Bibi and then she looks over at the band.

"What are you looking at," Bibi asked the three musicians.

"Oh, nothing, love," Jeanna said, with Floyd and Allen looking at Bibi as well. "We heard you say that you sang in front of zombies. We performed in front of zombies as well."

"Really?" Bibi said. "You guys are singers too?"

Floyd corrects Bibi. "Actually, Jeanna here sings, I play guitar, and Allen is the bassist. We are Angel Lust."

"Angel Lust, huh?" Bibi said. "That's weird. I think I saw a poster of you guys out there on the Silver or Platinum Strip. I am a singer. I am making my comeback."

"Who are you, love?" Allen asked Bibi.

"I am Bibi Love," Bibi said while standing before the band. "I was once a well-known singer, but now I am back to make myself known again. I still have fans out there, I know it. I just had the performance of a lifetime in the Slot Ranch Casino. I owe it all to one man."

"Okay," Allen said, out of a lot of confusion.

"Wait, I think I know who you are," Jeanna said.

"You do?" Bibi asked.

"Yes, I do," Jeanna said. "Me mum had some of your records. I think I remember seeing some of her record collection and coming across your records when I was a little girl. I remember me mum going to a concert of yours in London. This was back in the 90s. I was really young then, but she loved you."

"Now that you mention it," Bibi said. "I think I do remember touring in the UK back in those days."

Bibi is a little flattered to hear that someone still remembers her. She can never let go of her old glory days.

"So I was wondering," Bibi said. "Does your mother still have my records?"

Jeanna responds. "I think she does. I have not spoken to me mum in a while since I have been touring with the band. It's been crazy lately. I used to listen to your records when I was a little girl."

Bibi could not be anymore delighted to hear that. Allen and Floyd look at each with a lot of confusion.

"Wait, Jeanna," Floyd stops Jeanna to tell her something. "What is the deal here? I thought you said that you were always into metal. We are a metal band, remember?"

"Floyd, I have liked other things when I was little," Jeanna responds. "I was little then. Me mum and me sister were fans of hers, and I enjoyed it, too."

Bibi is letting what she is hearing go to her head. It suddenly became an ego-boost for her, as if her ego was not high already.

"Oh my god, I can't believe it, I still have fans," Bibi said with a lot of glee. "I have an idea, why don't I do a song with you?"

"Excuse me," Allen said, shocked at what he had just heard.

"Oh, come on," Bibi said. "This might be a good opportunity for you. It would be like our worlds colliding musically. Bibi Love meets Angel Lust. Two worlds collide! What do you say?"

Floyd turns his head and doesn't know what to say. Jeanna isn't generally opposed to the idea, but she feels like she needs to add her input.

"Bibi, I wouldn't mind doing that," Jeanna said. "But why don't I sing a song with you and see where it might go or maybe have Floyd and Allen here provide guitar and bass to one of your songs. What do you think?"

"Hmmmm, doesn't bother me," Bibi said. "We could do a duet first and then maybe a full-on collaboration."

Bibi is boasting with so much excitement right then that she didn't know what to think anymore.

"I am about to go to the bathroom," Bibi said. "We'll talk more about this later. This is great, I can't believe this."

After Bibi left the cafeteria, Floyd and Allen try to talk to Jeanna about this idea she has.

"Jeanna, are you sure about this?" Allen asked.

"Yeah, I am up for trying new things, but this is crazy," Floyd said.

"Relax, mates," Jeanna said, feeling confident that she knows what she is doing. "I think this might be a good opportunity for us to explore different horizons within our sound. She is an old pop musician looking to come back. We are trying to make it in the US. We could do this. Besides, I was a fan of hers at one point."

"Okay, we'll do this," Floyd said.

"On one condition, though," Allen said. "She needs to calm down a little bit before doing this. Part of me thinks she is a little crazy."

"Relax, Allen," Jeanna said. "I would not let all of us down. We are a band. We are Angel Lust. We are going to take the US by storm."

Hearing Jeanna said that put smiles on Floyd and Allen's faces, despite the skepticism of performing with Bibi Love.
