Koutai: Hi!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for reviewing and reading, and talking to me!!!!! Love you guys, u rock!
Devi/Nick POV
Telepathy/ flashback
I DO NOT OWN JONAS!!!
Rose and Fang smiled, but it did not quiet reach their nervous eyes. They each shook our hands before walking away. Was it just me, or did they both seem reluctant to let go, and that Fang's hand seemed to squeeze mine in a more than friend, maybe a brotherly way? I hoped the Boss didn't notice.
,….……,
"So, do they suspect?" the Boss whispered. Fang and Devi opened their eyes, the answer clearly showing.
"No. They are ignorant." They both said simultaneously. The Boss's cold and evil laugh echoed around the halls, and it caused Joe and Kevin, who were walking out the door, and to freeze.
ROSE'S POV
I sat in my hotel room, starring at the door that led to Fang's. I felt my suppressed tears finally overpower my will and escape, rolling down my cheek in a gently kiss of rain that soon turned into a storm. I hated this, but I knew that in order to preserve the lives of those I loved; I would have to continue this for the rest of my life. I would have to become who I am not, become a wilted rose that was dying slowly inside. I wonder, if in ten years, or even one, if I would remember who Devi Amal really was, and if I could ever be able to be her again. I hoped so with all of my hidden heart.
Are you ok? I heard Fang's concerned voice enter my head, and I almost laughed at the stupidity of the question.
Of course not. We just saw your brothers, and could not do anything to show them who we are. And what's worse, they suspect. We lied once to the Boss, but can we do it again? We have to be careful!
It took him a second to answer my silent worries. I know. It was so hard to see my brothers, to see the pain of losing me and you behind their eyes, and not be able to do anything about it. I really hoped that whole tattoo thing would have thrown them off the sent.
I smiled, unable to help recall the look of shock and disbelief on Joe and Kevin's faces. It might, when they see our ink. But we are lucky and can change them and make them disappear; at least they are not permanent in this horrid life.
Fang laughed a bit, but it was not as happy as I once heard it. It seemed dead and weak. True and I am looking forward to seeing our new band mates in frilly, poufy, pink princess dresses tomorrow night. And this life isn't horrid. I still get to do music, and I get to do it with you. That isn't horrid.
I allowed myself a humorless smile, one Rose gave a lot. Yeah, but still, we are torn from our family and friends, and worse, we have to act like we like the Boss!
I could practically see Fang's smile, adding just a bit of light to his once perfect, though still beautiful eyes. I think that proves to my brothers I am the best actor ever!
Geez Fang, ego much? I couldn't help but laugh for real at his statement, and I heard him laugh warmly too. But the laughter and happiness would fade, just like everything else in my dark abyss of a life.
MACY'S POV
My heart was still torn in two. I felt like it would never be one again until I had Devi back. Not even the music of JONAS could cheer me up. I tried calling Stella, but she is at a fashion show and Joe and Kevin are busy with their own worries, so it is just me.
I am lost in my worries and fear, lost in myself. Wondering if I will ever have the strength and will I need to move on, or move from my bed. I needed to hear Devi's voice, I needed to feel her embrace in a hug, and I needed her back, more than I ever needed the Lucas brothers. More than I ever needed Stella. Devi was my sister and when she left, she took a piece of my heart, the piece that allowed me to be happy, and the piece that made my Macy Misa.
Why Devi? Why did you leave us?
JOE'S POV
Has anyone ever tried to solve a puzzle that some of the pieces just won't fit? That is what I feel like now. I know in my heart that Fang is my brother, but the clues, the evidence, just don't add up to me. Nick would never get a tattoo, but he would make that stupid bet. He wouldn't smile like that at the Boss or smile that often period, but he is a pretty good actor if he has to be. Those songs sound like him and Devi, and they play are exactly in the same style, so why am I still having doubts?
Ugh, it has been 2 days and, I can't lie, Kevin and I are watching the VIP concert, real time on our computer. So far, all we learned is that pink is not the color dress for any of their band mates and if it is possible to laugh and sing at the same time, Rose did it very well. The look on the band members faces were priceless; regret of the bet, embarrassment, and so forth. But Leon looked like he made the best of it and he was prancing and skipping around stage in a way that I would do. That brought Fang to tears and his back from laughing so hard and Devi was trying to hold herself up on Sid's shoulder.
They played different songs from our concert, but the performance still blew my socks off. They still had the same intense and catchy energy that they had during ours. But this time, fans weren't the only ones that screamed when Fang took of his shirt, and when Devi turned, exposing her shoulders.
Down Fang' arm was a black, red and green dragon that was made from a guitar. The dragons head was on top of his forearm and it spiraled around his arm and its tail wrapped around his neck, like a scarf. The guitar was seen if one looked hard enough; its body was the body of the guitar, the neck was the neck, and silver strings could be send running down it. Its ears and spikes were the tuners at the top of the guitar and its fire had subtly hidden music notes. It was beyond cool, if you were into those kinds of things.
Rose's was simple, about the size on my palm and on her left shoulder blade. It was a skull with crossbones, except the skull wore dark sunglasses and had fangs and the cross bones were throne blood red roses with black stems. In other words, VIP's symbol, except without the golden words VIP stamped across it diagonally.
Ok, more pieces to the puzzle do not fit. This was not a very Nick or Devi thing to do, but I still stood by my brotherly instincts that told me they were indeed Nick and Devi. I looked at Kevin, and his shock was still etched on his face. Something stirred in my memory, like a snake uncoiling from a long sleep.
"Kevin?" I asked. He looked up at me. "Remember when we walked in on Nick that one day? And he had a tattoo on his arm?" Kevin looked thoughtful, but laughed as he relived through Nick's bewildered face at our anger, and then our bewildered face from his laughter.
"Oh yeah! He had some crazy design on his arm and we yelled at him pretty badly and he laughed in our face when he made it disappear from his arm…wait, you don't think…We are so stupid!"
I laughed lightly, only because I just thought the same thing, moments ago. "Yeah, we are. But could stupid brothers find their brother again after an evil mastermind took him away? I think not. Now, let's go save our brother!"
"Wait, Joe." Kevin said, blocking me with his arm and putting a halt on my enthusiasm. "Think to Nick's letter, what did he write?"
I was confused. "The part about us being his everything? His sadness of leaving? Ummm…"
Kevin shook his head. "No, the part about him not being able to tell us why he is leaving, and Devi's letter saying the same thing. What could that one thing be? It can't be their lives because they aren't exactly easy to kill now, but what if…"
"It was our lives." I ended for Kevin, who nodded slowly. I mentally smacked myself on the forehead. Duh! Joe how could you miss this?!?
"Ugh, I hate the Boss. I want to see him dead for forcing them to do this with that threat." I growled, letting all of my hate, anger and need for revenge flow into my voice. Kevin looked at me and nodded.
"I know Joe, so do I. But I really wish we could talk to Nick and Devi right now. Not Fang and Rose, but our brother and our sister. I really need to hear their voices right now…"
I felt my eyes moisten, but I blinked away the tears as I hugged Kevin. "Me too, big bro, me too."
My phone rang, but I ignored the call. It rang again, and I looked at the number, could it be?
"Nick?" I asked into the mouthpiece, hesitation and hope filling my voice.
"Hey Joe."
