Heh, short chapter, ^^;;;

Sure enough, it was her. She still looked the same, excluding the clothes. He wanted to jump out and hug her, ask her where she's been and what she's been up too. His face then turned grin. 'Jeez, did I really miss her that much?' he thought.

Before he could pity himself, one of the band members strolled up to her. He had on a black baseball cap, baggy blue jeans, and a white shirt that in yellow letters, "Bite Me". "Hey Vix, great guitar playing tonight," "Thanks," she said flatly, putting her guitar away.

The guy then leaned against the wall next to her. "So uh, how about you and me go somewhere sometime?" He asked, rubbing his hand across the stubble on his chin and Vixen sighed heavily. "I've told you a million times Dick, no,"

The man growled, "It's Rick, Vixen." "Well you certainly act like a dick, you also think with yours too I see,"

"Come on babe, why do you always have to play hard to get?"

"Because all you want is someone to get laid with, because all men these days are just horny, skirt-chasing shallow bastards!" She then briskly walked past him, but not before turning around and grabbing the collar of his shirt and said venomously, "And don't call me 'babe'"

She then sat on a box and started to re-buckle her boots, when Rick sat down beside her. "Whatever happened to um…Tracy? Stacy, Mitchy, Bitchy…" "Beth!" Rick grumbled and Vixen furrowed her brows. "Oh, now I see why you want to go out with me…you just want a replacement!"

Rick jumped to his feet and blurted out in a panicked tone, "Wait, no, it's not like that! Don't you ever get lonely?" "Oh course I do! I'm always alone! I'm livin' on the edge baby!" She yelled back, standing up as well and balling her fists then sighed and dropped her hands. "Can we just change the subject?"

"Fine." Rick agreed, then another band member, one with a mid-drift back shirt and tight black pants with short blonde hair, strode up and asked, "Hey, didn't you say this was your hometown?" She nodded slowly. "Yeah…"

"Well, don't you wanna go see all your old friends or something?"

She blew a raspberry. "My dad died, my mom doesn't know I exist, and all the friends I've had either die or disappear,"

"That's because you're a jinx," Rick interjected.

"I'm also a moron magnet. And I attract weird people,"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Like……like you!" She shouted, pointing an accusing finger at Rick. "You're a vampire/cannibal!"

"I am not!"

"Oh yeah? Well what about when you ran over that guy and drank his blood, then ate his insides?!"

"I was thirsty!" he paused, "…and hungry,"

"Come on, the people you meet can't be all weirdo's," the blonde said, giving her a sympathetic look. "Well, a few were really nice…like Jimmy…" Johnny's ears burned. He wondered who this Jimmy guy was and he listened closely.

"Who's he?" Rick asked curiously and Vixen sighed dolefully. "I knew him a few years back. He was kinda strange and obsessed with the homicidal maniac who committed all the vicious murder cases, who I met, but I don't wanna get into that right now,"

Johnny's heart leapt up into his throat. She couldn't be talking about the same Jimmy who wound up on his doorstep several years ago, the one he had killed with a scythe and a mallet. He really, really hoped she was talking about somebody else…

She put on a black trench coat and made her way to the door. "I'm going out. See ya when I see ya," She then left and he silently followed her, he didn't want to say hello to her, just yet.

Heh, sorry that was such a short chapter, I didn't have much time to write today…
