Well since no one is saying yay or nay then that means that's ok for me to write this fanfic. There will be polls for the GH section and that's mostly on which GH character gets what instrument, mostly guitar, bass, mic, and drums. I WILL be adding side quests outside of the main ones I'm planning. Meaning I'm adding Queen. Got inspired by a Pepsi commercial using Queen and it feels like a sin not to add them. I mean it seems that everyone forgets that Queen was technically a rock and roll group. Also, I'll be adding some rock and roll songs that are my favorite plus, and hate me or not for this, but I'm adding metal covers of some songs. If you want a reference on what I think Eddie would sound like as well as the dead husband look up Jonathan Young for the dead husband and Caleb Hyles for Eddie. I know Jack Black has a voice, it was proven in the Super Mario Movie immensely but somehow I see Caleb Hyles as his singing voice in my opinion especially with Jonathan Young. Look up some of the songs they did together and tell me if I'm wrong or right. Oh, I almost forgot. There's a YT user named MahaloVideoGames that did a walkthrough of the game including side missions, so more or less 100% playthrough that I know of. So I'm mostly following that user for this story as well as the users Nick Maxwell Weddings, GAMESPUB, and Gamer's Little Playground in case I miss a cutscene or something. So when you see a break in the story where my OC goes on her missions, that's because that's Eddie doing his side missions during the walkthrough.
Chapter 1
It was concert night for Eddie Riggs and Judy Nails. Eddie was fixing his guitar for the millionth time as Judy was writing notes to help her students at LEAST fix their tone-deafness. Like hell that was happening but she was getting paid a pretty penny so she just had to bear with it until Eddie and Judy's contract expires…5 years from now. Dear Lord. 5 more years of bad metal music from phonies while there were perfectly musically metal bands that survived the 80s and the late 90s that are at the height of their career. Silently Eddie and Judy are kicking themselves in the pants that they didn't find a better deal and went cheap thanks to 2008. It was thanks to that year that they lost their homes, their possessions that they couldn't carry on their backs let alone better jobs that follows their passion. No one wanted a man that thrives in the early 70s and a woman that can't even walk since birth. The world was cruel there would be days and nights they wish they can go somewhere else. Especially Judy since the death of her husband. The pain was still fresh and since his funeral, none of his family has talked to her. It was as though they erased her from their family tree. Still, Judy had hopes and would send Christmas and Birthday presents every year, that is until last year when all of her presents returned with a note saying 'Returned to Sender' meaning they completely cut her off. Some in-laws. At least the Queen's family was nicer to Diana than Judy's.
Anyway, Eddie was adjusting the strings on the newly rebuilt Clementine when the band popped up. They weren't even full-fledged teens and yet they act like 2-year-olds. Almost as bad as Caillou but worst. Where's a belt or a wooden spoon when you need it? "Ha ha! Watch it, dude! Check it!" Raz, the masher of Eddie's guitar chortled as he approached. Then he turned around and noticed the 2. "Oh! Hey, Riggs! Um, Sorry I smashed your guitar last night." He went back to laughing but Eddie presented him with the fixed guitar. "What the?!"
His own bandmates couldn't believe it. "It's like new." Sid declared.
"Woah! How did you do that?" Raz asked.
Just looked at him. "Have you met my brother Mister D-flat?"
Raz gave her the finger and took the guitar. Eddie got a cigarette and lit it up. Raz then said, "Yeah I'll try not to," Then he turned to them mockingly, "smash it so much this time." Then he and the band turned away.
"Don't mess with them. They scare me." Said Paul. He was an ok guy and the 2 respect him, but on rare occasions, he can also be a dick. Luckily not to their faces but silently. They head out to the stage, and the fans started to cheer. Maybe they were more tone-deaf than the band was.
Just then the lead singer, Erik Faust, came out playing on his pre-iPod phone. "Hey, Eddie, man, I hate to ask, but our manager wanted to know. When are you going to build us, like, a new set?" he asked. "This Stonehenge stuff was funny in a kind of ironic, retro sort of way, but…" Eddie wasn't happy about that. "Look, Eddie, don't get me wrong. You're the best, okay? The greatest roadie in the biz. Everybody knows you. An fix anything, build anything…"
Judy was groaning and getting annoyed. "Get the point Phantom Phan!" yelled Judy.
"So maybe you can go back to building us something that would speak more to our 'tween' demographic," Eddie growled silently as Judy did a sigh of contentment. "Is all I'm saying. Sooner or later you're going to have to join the modern world, you know?" He turned off his phone and turned to Judy. "Also, we need you to teach us more advanced singing and music stuff. We've been stuck on your 'level 3 out of 100' lessons," He quoted mockingly. "since we first started 3 years ago. You need to be a better teacher for us you know and you using Guitar Hero and Rock Band is just a stupid video game and isn't helping us learn the notes. All those songs are old and stupid." He fixed his hair and ran girlishly into the stage.
Judy said as she looked at him. "When your balls finally drop, get a decent voice, and know where the fingers go MAYBE you can be level 3.5, but until then, ain't gonna happen. Fucking bastard." Eddie stood up and walked up next to Judy as they hear the thunderous cheers. Then Judy felt embarrassed. "Though now I know how Boomers felt when we did the same thing in school." Eddie put a hand on her shoulder.
On stage, Erik took the mic. "Alright! Do you people want to hear some Heavy Metal?" Erik shouted into the mic. The crowd of fans cheered in response. They kicked it off with Raz strumming on the guitar, Sid on the drums, Paul on the bass, and at the moment everyone sounded 'ok'. But then…Erik started to sing and Reggie started to work on the DJ booth. "Ooooooo~" Erik's pitch was so high so tone-deaf, it was awful. And then the song started. "Girlfriend, you wanna make my heart bend? You know you'll always be my best friend. And what I'm saying to you, I can't pretend. 'Cause I'm turning inside out."
Eddie facepalmed, and Judy put her head in her hands and shook her head. As this was going on, another roadie walked up to them. Eddie said, "We can fix and teach anything, except that." He said.
The guy shook his head. "Metal is dead." Eddie took another swig of his cigarette.
Judy said, "I wish you could stop smoking Eddie."
Eddie said, "Doc said I have good genes so I can smoke as much as I want." He playfully pushed her head.
Erik continued to sing nonsense. "You're so fine, all mine. I'll treat you, like a porcupine(say what?)"
"Ever feel like you were born in the wrong time? Like you should have been born earlier. When the music was…real?" he asked.
The roadie asked, "Like…the seventies?"
Judy asked though humoredly, "Or the twenties like the grannies?"
But Eddie was serious. "Earlier. Like…the early seventies."
Judy nodded her head. "You got us there. Wouldn't mind skipping the disco to go straight into metal or rock and roll."
The roadie looked up and saw something. "Uh oh."
It was stupid Raz walking on one of the spikes on the monster set Eddie made like an idiot with no protective gear on. Judy said, "This asshole is gonna give me gray hair before I hit 60."
Eddie was pissed off. "I told you not to climb on that, you stupid motherfuckin' piece of shit!"
And of course, when Raz got to the edge of the spike, it started to bend and Raz has hanging on to it trying not to fall to his death. "Please let him fall." Said the Roadie.
Judy said, "Do it. At least in the afterlife, my husband can give him a good wedgie."
But Eddie, being a great guy, had to do what was right. "Damn it. Let's go, sis." He tossed his stick away, got his sister by the chair, and ran onto the stage so Raz won't be another celebrity pancake. Horrible Histories already has enough stupid deaths on their show. As Eddie ran to the stage. he thought back on his own roadie code that he, his father, sister, and his brother-in-law once honored. 'A good roadie knows his whole job is to make someone else look good.' Eddie and Judy look up at the idiot hanging on for dear life. Raz looked down and saw Eddie and Judy. 'Keep someone else safe. Help someone else do what they were put here to do.' He saw Eddie was keeping the set clean and Just wheeling herself in front of her brother holding her arms out. Raz dropped the guitar and Judy caught it. 'A good roadie stays out of the spotlight.' Eddie climbs up a bit to try and catch Raz at a good height so there won't be any backlash. 'If he's doing his job right, you don't even know he's there.' Raz tried to climb back up but he slips off the spike and falls. Luckily Eddie was there to catch his poor ass. 'Once in a while, he might step on stage just to fix a problem- to set something right.' Luckily Eddie caught him easily and placed him back on the ground. Then he and his sister backed up so the light wouldn't hit them as Raz got back on stage. But… 'But then before you even realize he was there, or what he did, he's gone.' Judy heard something, looked up, and leaped off her chair to her brother, trying to push him out of the way, but the set pieces fell on top of them hurting them badly.
As the band saw Judy's wheelchair roll away, they walked up to the wrecked wondering if the two were ok. Under the wreckage, Judy was on top of her brother, head on his chest and blood from their hands went to Eddy's belt buckle to its teeth. Only it wasn't a belt buckle but something more. The demon much started to glow as blood came from its mouth. Just then the set was glowing red eyes and was doing the same thing. It was coming to life. Then from the ground, the great metal beast, Ormagöden, appeared. Silver and shiny as a star yet hot as the sun. Once it was out of the ground and was looking around, it made a mighty roar with heated breath coming from its mouth with fire coming out of this piped spikes on its back like tripped out car or truck. It was a spitting image of the set that Eddie has been building now looking more like a shrine to Ormagöden than a stage set. Ormagöden looked down at the fallen beaten-up Eddie Riggs and Judy Nails and looked at the bandmates that did this to him. The DJ guy was smart and ran out of there as fast as his legs could. It was every man for himself while the drummer was looking at everything from behind. But Erik, Raz, and Paul weren't so lucky. They looked at Ormagöden in awe, as Ormagöden pointed at the mutilated bodies of their former carpenter and teacher and though Ormagöden didn't know the two, he knew that the band treated them like shit. Ormagöden let out a mighty roar on the 2 bandmates and it was so hot, so beautiful, so amazing that Paul, Erik, and Raz lost their heads with ease as it was cut clean off and their heads and bodies fell on the floor. The drummer saw all of this and was getting extremely scared since he was next and Ormagöden was looking straight at him. The poor boy tried to back off Ormagöden by using his drumsticks as the holy cross but it didn't nothing to stop Ormagöden from punching him out of existence. Once that was done, Ormagöden pushed the drums away and lay Eddie and his sister on the platform. Then he turned to the crowd and let out another mighty roar. The fan thought it was all a show, but when they saw that Ormagöden was being dead serious…well…who would say what happens when you make a Fire God angry.
