A/N: Cool, so writing this wasn't a complete waste of time after all. I got reviews so therefore I'm gonna write more. Jeez, the fact I left homework that was supposed to be due on Monday at school is REALLY pissing me off. But I digress so on with this story.

P.S: The lyrics that are contained in this chapter are my own, so hope you like them.

Love, the Dragon

Everything on the bus was silent, until Yumi creeped open the door to reveal herself and walk out from her room sullenly. Walking straight to the kitchen she was casted perturbed looks from Ami and Kaz, who were eating either ramen or sushi around a small mahogony table.

"Yumi, are you okay? We heard a crash from your room." The pom-pom haired girl sat worried for her friend who was rubbing her fist as to soothe the pain from before, and hide the blood.

"Yeah, I just knocked my lamp over, that's all. Hey Ami?" Yumi directed her somewhat calmed face over to her best friend.

"Yes?"

"I want to go see that band that's playing our gig tonight. I wanna know if they got the talent and not just the money to be able to sell us out." The purple haired rocker looked out one of the bus windows to see a moonlit sky and dirt road. Ami's eyes had widened, putting to thought how angry her friend was because the band even existed.

"Umm, well...I guess so. Can we Kaz?" She looked over to their manager.

"Eh, why not? Just don't let Yumi get drunk again, bunmyou?" He narrowed his eyes pointedly to Yumi who growled back at him with her 'For-the-hundredth-time-I-quit-' look.

"Hai Kaz. Alright Yumi, we're going!" Ami ran into her room then immediately ran back out with a pink Puma hoodie. "It's chilly out Yumi, maybe you should wear a coat." She told her rockstar friend, who simply shrugged and lazily walked into her room, coming out with a black Slipknot hoodie. They both waved to Kaz and exited the bus, taking a mini trek to the road.

Half an hour later they were blended to a prodigous crowd of headbangers and goths bellowing with draconic voices and cusses. Yumi could feel Ami holding tightly to her arm in fear of being hit on by one of the more horrid-looking guys, and maybe even a girl, judging by some of their decieving looks.

"It's alright Ami. They're just here for the mashpits and music, not to hit on girls. Uh, hey! It's starting." And it was, as the crowd began screaming and jumping with hysterical exitement when the entire concert was shrouded in black and the noise of static invaded. Suddenly, very quietly, the sound of an electric guitar could be heard playing a phrenetic solo, and a seething voice could be heard echoeing on the stage of words "You have entered the realm of Headcore, and that was your mistake." Suddenly red sirens started blazing and horns were being blowed.

"WARNING. You have entered the Dead Zone. This area contains amass torture to those who cannot escape. Please exit through the front doors now or be trapped within the grasp-

"OF HEADCORE!" All the lights turned on and the horns stopped. The sirens were still turning with red but their noise had ended. A figure, covered by a half robot, half skeleton mask stood at the tip of the stage and two people on guitar, one person on drums and one person on records were behind her. Yes, it was a GIRL standing before Yumi and Ami and all of the audience. The voice was barely clean enough through the scream to identify but Yumi was able to decipher. The girl, wearing a black tank top with a black buckle chocker, one rocker watch on her left wrist and spiked bracelet on the other, black cargos covered in chains and black boots, pulled her mask over her head to reveal blood red hair, that was cut short so it spiked at the end just like Yumi's. On the small screens above the stage showed a close-up of her red-orange eyes that said 'Love' on one eye and 'Hate' on the other going around her pupils. They then frizzed out and the girl laughed draconically into the microphone that sent chills up Ami's spine and made her pull Yumi's arms around her. Rolling her eyes, Yumi embraced her, and watched as the song began.

"In the grasp of rivalry, under the pressure of sodomy,
burning irons and screaming men, the last warning that I will send.
Implanted weapons of mass destruction, in the grip of humans under construction,
phrenetic of envy, the core of my rage, the fall of mankind on the same page.
The human is a failed expirement, grappled in the chains of confinement,
the chaos man dared to bring, giving birth to it's ultimate machine.
Crossfires of a war, a darkness so feared it cannot be ignored.
We are the war standing before,
cowards destroyed, until no more.

Destroy our world, destroy our world.
Where no man sees us secure.
Rivalry, sodomy,
in the grasp of blaspheme!

By fault of strength slipping away, darkening arsenal to kill the day
earthquakes disturbed of underground hysteria, steel wings slashing of aerial paranoia.
Demonic artillary to enslave our souls, the path to freedom shall never unfold,
isolated by cages that will not set us free, to realize the reality no human sees.
The truth of death as we live and fall, to hear grinding words such as bow down to all!
adrenaline raging with hearts bleeding of hatred, crawling through the mazes of a world that has faded .
Amain force pounding to beats of cadence, shockwaves disperse until dawn of silence.
Fighting with pain, marching with strain,
everything lost and with nothing to gain.

Come set us free, come set us free.
Tell us the true meaning of creed.
Hysteria, paranoia,
burning our dreamland Utopia!

Let me burn than be controlled
spirits rising from the cold
ending all that kept us dead
terrorists awed by bloodshed
fight the towers of rigid flame
with the nightmare of rising battle to blame
revenge is always far away
but the time to avenge has come today.

With these two hands shaking of temptation, I will destroy man's deadliest creation."

All fell silent on the stage but the screaming from the crowd only grew. In the small screens, Yumi now with her eyes wide in astonishment, looked up and saw the cold sweat pouring from the girl's face, and her eyes glow with deepening red and orange. She also realized Ami was almost at tears binding tightly around Yumi. Looking back at her friend, and then looking up to the stage, where she was the girl with her mask back on glaring down at her, Yumi sharply gasped. Those 'I want you to burn' eyes were glaring into her 'I want you to die' ones. And the burning glare was slowly defeating her glare and consuming them in flames until Yumi jerked away and graped Ami tightly.

"C'mon, we're getting out of here." She held Ami close to her. The other girl nodded and they snuck away from the crowd and out the emergency exit, into an alley with the full moon shining on them.

"Yumi, where are we?" Ami loosened her grip on the purple-haired woman and scanned the long, dark alleyway, seeing a large crack in the opposite brick building that seemed large enough for a person to walk through. Yumi payed no mind to this, and turned her head in random directions as if looking for something.

"We're on the opposite side of the entrance. All we need to do i-YAA!" She was cut off as a figure grappled with her from behind until they pulled a knife up to her chin. Yumi gasped and mumbled in the figure's hand when she saw Ami get gagged and have her hands tied together by another person. They were both shrouded in darkness as to not be seen.

"You girls made one hell of a mistake walking into Cougar territory." Yumi's confronter pushed the knife closer to her chin and let his hand fall away from her mouth.

"Let Ami go you sons of bitches!" She yelled while forcing her self away from the figure and knocking the knife from his hand. But the shadow immediately peformed a roundhouse kick as Yumi was turned around and brought her to the concrete, knocking her out cold.

"YUMI!" Ami cried to her friend, who had already blacked out and lay there with no reaction to her call. Suddenly, three figures walked from out of the crack in the building and there eyes glowed with a merciless yellow in the moonlight. Before she could scream for help the one holding her shoved her to the ground harshly, having her head barely skin the brick and begin to slighly bleed. The injury made her feel light-headed. She looked up the second one of them gripped her by her hoodie collar and forced her above them with one hand.

"She looks tenderizing, boys. Think she'll be a good toy for tonight while we kill the other one later?" His teeth glowed and showed sharp fangs that caused Ami to whimper. Her body was trembling and felt cold in the lifeless air. She was at the edge of crying, until she saw Yumi shakingly force herself on her feet behind them, and they didn't notice. Yumi's eyes were revealed from her bangs, and they screamed death with seething red.

"I said, let her go." When they heard her voice, they turned fully aware she was awake with a gun in their hands. The larger shadow dropped Ami and her head banged against the bruck harder than before, causing her to yell in pain and slowly black out.

"Well then, guess we have to just kill you now, don't we?" He laughed, ready to pull the trigger, until he along with the other figures felt a darkness in the fog that seemed to have appeared from nowhere. Yumi's eyes returned to normal and she looked around as confused as her confronters in the rising thickness of the fog. She then heard yells and screams in front of her but couldn't see through and attempted to run inot the direction of the screams, but was not able to move her legs.

"Grr, why the hell can't I move! Gaah, dammit!" She jerked and turned but could only move her torso. The screams soon ended, and with one giant attempt to move, Yumi launched her body forward and flew to the ground.

"What the hel-wait...AMI-CHAN! W-where are you! Ami!" Suddenly, the fog lifted rapidly, and as it cleared she squinted to find her friend laying unconscious like before. She sharply gasped and rushed over to Ami on all fours.

"Ami, wake up! Damn, what happened! They're gone. Huh, nani?" Beside her, a piece of black paper was crumpled up. She picked it up, unwrinkled it and read the contents inside. Putting it down, her pupils were small and her face turned pale.

"A...dragon?" The paper she let drift into the wind said: 'If I were you, I would be afraid the Fog. Love, The Dragon.'
