Now back to the story.
"…Me" Into the spot light stepped none other then Sam Manson. A collective gasp rippled through the shocked student body not only from her presence but also from her outfit (batten down the hatches and tie down grandma cause here is the big one). She was wearing a mid thigh length black jean mini skirt that hugged her curves like a formula one racer (I cannot tell you how awkward I felt writing that). A tight black V-neck belly top adorned her with "Don't judge me based on your ignorance" written in purple letters. The top showed off a small purple navel ring shaped like a rose, which had an intricate pattern of body jewels surrounding it. Around her hips diagonally was slung several silver chains that winked in the spot light. Purple and black horizontally striped leotards decorated her legs. Bellow them sat a pair of black knee boots laced with purple ribbons. Her hair was streaked violet and tied in a high ponytail, two pieces hanging down framing her face, while perched on top of her head was a pair of black smoked lens goggles. Her purple eyes were outlined with black eyeliner; making them pop and instead of her normal purple lipstick, Sam was wearing clear lip gloss that made her already full lips glow in the spotlight. From her ears hung large purple hoops and around her neck was a black velvet chocker with a large purple jewel hanging from it. On one wrist hung a silver charm bracelet with each charm held a memory of an important moment in Sam's life. On one of her slender fingers toped with black nail polish covering the long fingernails was a simple silver band. Danny was shocked he recognized that ring; subconsciously he raised his hand to touch its twin, which hung on a silver chain below his shirt. Bought on a shopping trip where both friends were high on sugar the rings were a symbol of their friendship. Engraved on both ring were the words "You're My Haven In Life And Death".
Sam smirked at the aghast faces of her audience. "We are The Second Chance and we're hear to play for you" Sam shouted into the microphone "You ready guy? One, Two, Three, HIT IT!"
Amber swayed softly from side to side while Dex tapped out a soft beat in the background as Tucker spin discs on a turntable with excellent precision. Gripping the mike with both hands Sam bobbed her head to the beat waiting for her turn to come.
No one sits with him, he doesn't fit in
But we feel like we do when we make fun of him
Cause you want to belong do you go along?
Cause his pain is the price paid for you to belong
Bright multi-colored lights rotated and flashed over head giving the stage and eternal glow. Sam let her eyes sweep across the audience as she sang, resting on certain ones as her word washed over her audience. Some averted their eyes in shame at her accusatory words.
It's not like you hate him or want him to die
But maybe he goes home and thinks suicide
Or he comes back to school with a gun at his side
Any kindness from you might have saved his life
Sam smiled as Amber's low voice joined hers, this was what Sam had lived for she was making a difference.
Heroes are made when you make a choice
Raising her fist in the air she belted her favorite line of their song with every emotion she held.
You could be a hero
Heroes do what's right
You could be a hero
You might save a life
You could be a hero, You could join the fight
For what's right for what's right for what's right
Amber began strum her guitar adrenaline racing through her veins. Sam was now bobbing her head as she sang energetically pointing at random people in the audience.
Tucker Dex and Amber played their instrumental parts hard and with emotion. This song held a lot of truth for them, all of them and it felt good to express how they and many others felt. All their feelings sadness, hurt, guilt, anger it could all be heard as they played.
The music quieted down until only Tucker could be heard in the background. Sam closed her eyes as she sang. This part was the hardest for her as it hit a personal note, but this was for her and Amber. This was her chance to feel.
No one talks to her, she feels so alone
She's in too much pain to survive on her own
The hurt she can't handle overflows to a knife
She writes on her arm, wants to give up her life
Sam softly smiled as Amber joined her once more. It felt good to know that someone had felt the same way she did, that she wasn't alone
Each day she goes on is a day that she's brave,
Fighting the lie that giving up is the way,
Each moment of courage her own life she saves
When she throws the pills out a hero is made
Raising her head and opening her eyes she showed the audience she had no fear as she spoke her words with conviction.
Heroes are made when you make a choice
You could be a hero
Heroes do what's right
You could be a hero
You might save a life
You could be a hero, You could join the fight
For what's right for what's right for what's right
Once more Amber Dex and Tucker lapsed into their music playing hard but sweating under the hot spot lights. No matter how hard it was they loved it. Sam knew the next verse was going to cause some controversy but she was prepared for the worst and this was a chance she had to take.
No one talks to him about how he lives
He thinks that the choices he makes are just his
Doesn't know he's a leader with the way he behaves
And others will follow the choices he's made
Sam's eyes at this point were focused on one person at this point. This part was directed at him and he knew it. She could see the shame in his eyes. The eyes of a bully, no of a frightened little boy whose body grew up but mind didn't, the eyes of Dash Baxter.
He lives on the edge, he's old enough to decide
His brother who wants to be him is just nine
He can do what he wants because it's his right
The choices he makes change a nine year old's life
Glaring down at Dash she sang. She pointed at him challenging him to make a choice.
Heroes are made when you make a choice
She drew her gaze away from him and focused once more on the audience in front of them. Once more her band members slammed on their instruments even harder then before Sam's passion energizing them.
You could be a hero
Heroes do what's right
You could be a hero
You might save a life
You could be a hero, You could join the fight
For what's right for what's right for what's right
Sam swiftly stepped back to where Tucker was spinning his disks and flawlessly took his place it was his turn. Tucker holding the mike stepped up to the front and center of the stage and raised it to his lips. Danny was worried for a minute. Tucker? Sing? It seemed very dangerous to him but surely Sam knew what she was doing. Right?
Little Mikey D. was the one in class who everyday got brutally harassed
This went on for years until he decided that never again would he shed another tear
So he walked through the door, grabbed the forty-four out of his father's dresser drawer
And said I can't take life no more
And like that life can be lost
Tucker could see the awestruck crowd wince. Michael Daniels had gone to Casper High and been picked a lot, a little while ago didn't showed up for school. Michael had killed himself and the sad part was it barley made a ripple. People just pretended it didn't happen that Mikey never existed.
But this ain't even about that
All of us just sat back and watched it happen
Thinkin' it's not my responsibility to solve a problem that isn't about me
This is our problem
This is just one of the daily scenarios which we choose to close our eyes
Instead of doing the right thing
People just pretended it didn't happen that Mikey never existed. He was forgotten but it was time he was remember, it was time to open some eyes.
If we make a choice and be the voice for those who won't speak up for themselves
How many lives would be saved, changed, rearranged
Now it's our time to pick a side/Save a life
So don't keep walkin' by
Not wantin' to intervene
Cause you wanna exist and never be seen
So let's wake up and change the world/For what's right, for what's right.
Our time is now
Setting the turntables on autopilot Sam grabbed another mike and stood beside Tucker who was really getting into it. Thrusting his fist in the air after every line he was almost screaming.
You could be a hero
Heroes do what's right/ our time is now
You could be a hero / Save a life
You might save a life/ our time is now
You could be a hero/our time is now
You could join the fight
For what's right for what's right
Tucker and Sam jumped aside and Amber leapt to the center of the stage and started slamming on her guitar as Dex beat his drums with renewed vigor while bobbing his head enthusiastically. The music's volume slowly began to lower as the lights dimmed then flashed white leaving the stage completely empty except for a thin layer of smoke as the last cord died.
I think there will be one last chapter two at most but they will be short.
