Koutai: Hi!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for Special Agent Ali and Silvereyed angel for reading review, and talking to me!!!!! Love you guys, u rock!
Devi/Nick POV
Telepathy/ flashback
I DON'T OWN JONAS, MICHEAL JACKSON OR SIMPLE PLAN!!!! FOR THE CONTEXT OF THIS FANFICTION, THE SONGS WILL BE WRITTEN AND SANG BY THE IMAGINARY BAND, VIP. I DO OWN DEVI, ROSE, THE BOSS, AND THE SONG ETERNAL NIGHT!
"Alright, they are really good. The guy's voice, Fang…wow. He sounds so into it and perfect for this song. All out rocker and husky, you can tell he loves to sing. And Rose, her voice fits with his perfectly! Never too high or too low, and always has had had the right amounted of energy. They could even surpass us!"
I couldn't help but chuckle. "Yeah, I bet even Nick would be impressed." Joe laughed sadly.
"Yeah, he would be. But then he would go straight to his keyboard or guitar and whip out a sing that could easily best this one."
Kevin smiled and pats my back. "That he would."
…..(BOSS'S POV)
Now, are you both going to listen to what I say, or do you need the pain of your loved ones as persuasion?"
JOE'S POV
Kevin and I were standing at the concert for VIP. The opening band just left, and the crowd was silent, eagerly awaiting the arrival of their idols. The crowd held the most diverse people I have ever seen. Girls and guys from all ages and sizes stood, waiting and watching. Most in black VIP shirts that had a faded and grayed silhouette of Rose and Fang, and only their eyes were colored and the band name was written in a blood red and shone, the girls in short leather skirts and the guys in skin tight pants. Kevin and I were not approached once, and not even given a second glance, welcome to the world of VIP, I overheard a fan saying, and they were right.
The lights dimmed and the crowd started chanting "VIP, COME TO ME! VIP COME TO ME!"
The guitar started and the lights flashed in beat. Just before the singing started, two figures were launched, ten feet in the air, from under the stage and they both flipped two times before landing perfectly. As soon as they landed, the singing started and the crowd went wild.
(ME AGAINST THE WORLD BY SIMPLE PLAN)
(Fang singing, Rose singing, both singing)
We're not gonna be
Just apart of their game
We're not gonna be
Just the victims
They're taking our dreams
And they tear them apart
'til everyone's the same
I've got no place to go
I've got no where to run
They love to watch me fall
They think they know it all
I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own
I've gotta prove them wrong
Me against the world
It's me against the world
We won't let them change
How we feel in our hearts
We're not gonna let them control us
We won't let them shove
All their thoughts in our heads
And we'll never be like them
I've got no place to go
I've got no where to run
They love to watch me fall
They think they know it all
I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own
I'm gonna prove them wrong
It's me against the world
Me against the world
Now I'm sick of this waiting
So come on and take your shot
You can spit all your insults
But nothing you say is gonna change us
You can sit there and judge me
Say what you want to
We'll never let you in
I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own
Me against the world
I'm a nightmare, a disaster
That's what they always said
I'm a lost cause, not a hero
But I'll make it on my own
I've got to prove them wrong
They'll never bring us down
We'll never fall in line
I'll make it on my own
Me against the world
Throughout the whole song, Rose and Fang ran around their stage, interacting with their fans, kissing their hands, and singing right to them. They flipped, break danced, and did everything humanly possible, in just one song. I was blown away. Both held a guitar and neither slowed down because of it. Rose's was glittery black with red lightening shooting from the edges and had dark green strings. The pegs at the top look like little thorns. Fang's was spiked and had about ten edges. It was a glittering deep gold with a thick black outline. His strings were blood red and his pegs were shaped like bones.
They both stepped into the light with smirks on their faces as the looked at their fans. Rose wore a short black leather skirt with a tight and low cut dark blue short sleeved shirt and ripped blue and black striped leggings. She wore a spike collar, black nail polish, a necklace that looked like the rose of death, and skull earrings. Her black hair flowed behind her and her bang tips were died blue for the occasion. Her starling green eyes glinted happily and amused.
Fang was in a sleeveless leather jacket that had spikes on his shoulders and around the bottom hem. He was shirtless, showing off a nicely toned and abed stomach. His pants were skin tight and a dark and ripped blue. His black hair was messily flipped out, and it suited his pale skin and face. His storm cloud eyes were full of conflicting emotions, but mainly of glee and excitement.
Both of the musicians wore shoes that resembled Converse, but were called VIP, Violent Imagination Producers. Apparently, you could design your own shoes with their style. Rose's were black, red bottomed, and green laces, with a long rose and stem intertwining around her shoes. Fangs were black with a grey bottom, and gold laces.
"How are you all doing tonight?" Rose screamed into her handless mike, amusement riding on her voice. The crowds' screams answered her question.
"Awesome!" yelled Fang. "Ok, to kick off this concert, we are going to show you all a special talent Rose and I possess. It is even better than my good looks and talent." The crowd laughed and few wolf whistled, causing Fang to laugh lightly, showing off his signature fangs.
"Alright, Fang and I can throw or voices and sing like anyone on the planet. So, we decided, or in other words, were forced to by our management, to sing a tribute to Nick Lucas of JONAS, who, as everyone knows, disappeared." Rose stated, sounding a bit annoyed and bored.
Fang finished. "So we are both gonna throw our voices; I will sound like Nick and Rose will be a female Joe. Hope you guys enjoy it more than we do, because doing this kills our throats. And if we miss a few notes, bear with us."
Fang walked up to the drums that were now center stage and sat down. Rose stayed with her guitar. They each took a few deep breaths and cleared their throats. That is when they started playing "Keep it Real."
You dream of a day when the songs that you play
Are blasting through the speakers in your car
It comes in a flash and you hear the crowd
Screaming out your name for the encore
Living life
Life in the fast lane
Not that bad
No we can't complain
Who's to say
That we won't keep it real
Hold on tight
Don't you dare let go
Now's the time to let the whole world know
You can shine bright but still keep it real
Who could know that you'd be on the road
Selling out the tickets to your show
Where you're from you're still the one
You were before you left to go on tour …Whoo!
Living life
Life in the fast lane
Not that bad
No we can't complain
Who's to say
That we won't keep it real
Yeah
Hold on tight
Don't you dare let go
Now's the time to let the whole world know
You can shine bright but still keep it real
Did you ever think your dreams
Would become a reality? Woohoo.
And all you did was just believe
Living life
Life in the fast lane
Not that bad
No we can't complain
Who's to say
That we won't keep it real yeah!
Living life
Life in the fast lane
Not that bad
No we can't complain
Who's to say
That we won't keep it real
Hold on tight
Don't you dare let go
Now's the time to let the whole world know
You can shine bright but still keep it real
I gasped in shock, not just because Fang sounded exactly like Nick, and I sounded good, no awesome as a girl, but because of the way Fang was playing the drums. I watched his face and how he hit the pads, and something stirred in my memory. I saw Nick playing the drums to this song, it the exact same way; the same facial expressions and the same power and intensity of playing. I wasn't sure, but I was starting to see my brother in Fang.
I looked at Rose, who was now sitting at the Piano, waiting for Fang to get settled with his acoustic guitar. I leaned toward Kevin, who leaned toward me.
"Watch how they play their instruments, and tell me if the style seems familiar." Kevin looked confused, but nodded anyway. We both turned our attention toward the stage again.
"Alright everyone! This song is our number one hit for 3 weeks straight!!! I wrote it about a year ago, when I was going through a hard time in my life, and then I met Fang and things looked up for me, and this song became the distant memory of my past. Sing along if you know the words."
Rose started playing a beautiful but simple opening on the black piano that had a large red rose on the top. Her fingers danced an elegant waltz across the keys, hitting everyone lightly and lovingly. My jaw dropped as I saw Nick tutoring a very persistent Devi, on his keyboard. I remembered becoming mesmerized by her fingers that lightly danced across each key, very much like I was seeing now.
Fang started strumming his guitar, and I had seen the serious, but bored look on his face too many times to fail to notice it. I looked at Kevin, who was starring at me, shocked.
(Eternal Night, written by me…aka, the author)
Why didn't you say, that you were moving on? You could have saved me from a ton of pain, But you left me in the dark, Left lost in the pain of losing you, Cursed forevermore in my misery.
Lost in the Eternal Night I'm waiting for you, to become the light that reveals the path to set me free From all the feelings you forced on me.
(Oh, yeah,)
So, why did you say, that you wanted me? When all you wanted was to see my pain. Am I hurt enough for you? Can you hear my poor soul weeping? Another heart is lost to the darkness…
Lost in the Eternal Night I'm waiting for you, to become the light that reveals the path to set me free From all the feelings you forced on me.
(Oh, the feelings you forced on me!)
I'm Lost in the Eternal Night, Realizing you, Will never become my light, To lead me away, From the darkness I feel, I'm lost in the dark, Can anyone save me?
*****Fang is singing only the chorus, Rose is singing what is in ()
Lost in the Eternal Night (holding "me") I'm waiting for you, (I'm waiting) to become the light (will you be my light?) That reveals the path (please set me free) to set me free From all the feelings you forced on me.
(Oh, ho)
Can anyone save me? Save me from my Eternal Night...
Why is this song so familiar? I searched my brain, and came up empty.
"Nick sang that song. We heard him sing it, remember? And Devi was singing it with him…"Kevin said, his voice filled with elation. We had found our brother and sister…maybe.
"Yeah, and Devi said that this song was her past in a nutshell, until she met Nick!" I smiled, and turned my gaze to the figures I believed were my lost loved ones. They were standing, and it took me a moment to realize they were kissing. I gagged a bit, and realized Nick would never do that. Kevin nudged me and pointed off stage.
I saw a large man, with glinting brown eyes that I could see form this far away, a handle bar mustache, and a mean and powerful aura. As soon as I saw the look of hunger in his eyes, I knew.
"The Boss…" I whispered. Kevin nodded.
"We need to find a way to meet Rose and Fang. Only then can we be sure, but if they are Devi and Nick, then they won't act like themselves with the Boss watching them. And how is it possible that Nick can look like that?"
I sighed, horror dawning on me at what the Boss had done to my brother. "Do you remember how Devi told is she can change her appearance, thanks to one of the Boss's shots?" Kevin nodded. "What if he gave Nick that same shot?" Kevin's eyes widened and murder showed in his eyes.
"I'll kill him." I couldn't help but agree with my anger driven brother. The Boss was about to lose, and this time, he would stay down.
Koutai: Yeah, this isn't as good as I thought it would be. Imagine the concert as a Jonas concert, or Michael Jackson, but ten times better and more energy filled, and you have VIP. Sorry it took so long and that this chapter is a bit if a disappointment, next one will be so much better, I promise!
