When Pain Strikes
Tonight is the first night that I will perform solo and I am freaking out. My palms are so sweaty that I'm afraid I'll drop the mic, my throat is sore, and to make matters even worse Michael is sick with the flu and he couldn't come to cheer me on. A stout man pokes his head out from behind the curtains and exclaims "You're on". Now I was really scared, I took a couple of steps and then realized that I was starting to dissolve and soon my hands were just a swarm of black dots. Calm down, I told myself, pull yourself together, literally. But my body was still disintegrating and soon I was completely gone. I could hear the crowd screaming my name and the curtains were starting to pull back, my signal. I had no choice, I was going to have to go into the audience and grab Serena. I had asked everyone to come but they were all back in last week with Catty trying to figure out who had witnessed me disappear. Finally after a few minutes I found Serena and when she sensed my presence and followed me back stage. When we got there she pushed into my mind and asked me, why aren't you on stage?. I'm nervousI replied wearily, as soon as I was about to get onstage I disintegrated and now I can't get back! Then Serena pushed a picture of me singing at planet bag into my mind and I started to calm down. Then I realized that I loved singing and that I need to be there for my fans. Aw shit that's a bunch of crap, I was still as nervous as ever. I quickly told Serena that I was going to go to Planet Bang and when she started to protest I simply just told her that she could either come with me or stay here.
A minute later we were both on our way to Planet Bang, by then I had materialized and I was feeling like shit for leaving. The one thing that was cheering my up was the wind blowing through my hair making it whip through the wind. As soon as we got to Planet Bang I felt much better as the music started to pound through my body. I was soon moving my body to the music letting it take me. Then I saw something that made me stop dead in my tracks, Michael was dancing with Morgan in the middle of the dance floor.
