One shot city Chapter 7: Abuse-warning!, a grojband fanfic

So I apologies for not updating sooner, but I've had some serious summer fun time going on! And I'm sorry to AC FTW, but I know absolutely nothing about Assassins Creed, or Animus or any of that stuff :( so I would have to do some massive research, and it will take awhile. Expect it though! Okay, so this chapter is gonna be a little violent….laney gets abused and some minor pieta….. so don't read if you don't like that stuff. This has been really long already, so here's the next chapter!

COREYS POV:

I am a little confused. Every day after Grojband got lyrics and preformed, Laney would run home super quickly. And if we didn't perform until a little after 4 or 5, she wouldn't be able to do it cause of some mysterious reasons.

Sometimes when she could spend time at the Groj, she would get weird phone calls and get terrified after them. It was like another version of the 'abusive boyfriend*' incident. That actually might be it, because she was getting bruises on her neck(get your mind out of the gutter folks :p) and having much more trouble playing the bass,

"My hands just hurt right now, that's all." She had said when I asked her why she was playing weirdly. No one could see her hands though, because she wore gloves all the time. However, the one time she didn't wear gloves, her wrists were all red and swollen. I don't think it was self -harm, but it was something.

I was 99% percent sure that nothing was wrong with her for the first 2 months when it started, after her mom died, but then it started to get to the point where she was skeleton thin, and had a strong change of attitude. She was sarcastic and awesome, but now she was timid and scared. I was kind of worried for her.

"HEY KIN!" I yelled after Laney had ran home at 6 o'clock. He looked up from his keyboard,

"What is it Corey?" he responded.

"What do you think is wrong with Lanes?"

"Um-" he got cut off by Kon.

"Ooo! I bet future Laney came and was like 'you are so good at playing the bass, do you want to come and be famous in my time?' And present Laney was like 'sure!' and she left, but future Laney had to have a Laney in this time, so she left this sad laney here!" Kon exclaimed. Kin rolled his eyes.

"What I was going to say is that maybe she just has something bad going on at her house, her mom did die less than two months ago."

"That's true, so lets go check up on her and her dad, just to make sure she's okay and junk." I declared. Kin and Kon agreed.

THIRD PERSON:

Corey, Kin, and Kon walked up the stairs leading to Laneys house. The house itself was in a very bad condition. The windows were broken with shards every where, the once trimmed lawn was overgrown with weeds, and the paint was cracking. They heard some weird noises that sounded like a whimpering dog, but it was more human. There was also some creepy laughter, kind of like a villain from a Disney* movie.

Kin was the first one to look through the broken window inside the house. He was also the first one to stand gaping at the window and then fall backwards. Kon rushed over to his fallen brother and tried to revive him by slapping his face.

"Come on bro, speak to me!" He yelled in between slaps. Kin just stared at him.

"Dude, I'm still awake. YOU CAN STOP NOW!" he yelled pulling his brothers hands away. Kon smiled sheepishly.

"sorry bro I thought you were dead."

Corey rolled his eyes at the brotherly love. He walked over to the same window Kin was at and looked through it's shattered glass.

Inside was the most horrific sight he ever saw. All over the floor, literally covering the entire area, were empty beer bottles. Some were smashed, but still. Also attached to the wall was the most depressing thing in the world. Laney had said she had gotten a dog ,named Rainbone, and had a green collar. So, it was shocking to see the same dog, green collar and everything, hanging by a rope on the wall.

It made Coreys heartbreak. Laney had to deal with some person killing her dog in her own house. He decided to make a plan to get into her house.

Corey, Kin and Kon crept over to the front door, which was the only thing that didn't look like it hadn't been touched if five years. Corey opened the door and tip toed inside. Kin and Kon watched the door to make sure no one was going to see and stop him. Meanwhile, inside Corey was having some minor issues. Laney's dad was walking around and yelling something at someone.

He walked around the corner and stopped at the entrance of a bedroom. As he turned to look inside, Lanes'es dad was so close to the entrance, Corey had a mini heart attack on the spot. Then he yelled something that he heard clearly:

"YOU LITTLE BRAT! IF YOU WANT TO BE FED, YOU COME HOME AT 5:30! NOT 6, NOT 5:29, 5:30! IF YOUR LITTLE IDIOT FRIENDS CARED FOR YOU THEY WOULD BE HERE RIGHT NOW!" In the corner there was a small sob and the sound of a harsh kick. Not breathing, Corey looked around the corner to the sight before him. LANEY was tied to a wall with some small looking handcuffs on her already bruised wrists.

Laney was a mess. Her hair was matted, and even though she had red hair, you could plainly see that there was blood on her head. Her own father was slapping her and kicking her, all over her body. He was horrified.

LANEY'S POV:

I came home late, which I already know I'm going to be punished for. My stomach felt like it was going to cave in, and my hands were frozen.(LET IT GO!:P JK)

When I got home I was face to face with my dad. The rest of the time was kind of a blur, but I remembered getting hit and kicked. Before I passed out completely, I swear I saw a flash of blue hair. Then I let go to unconsciousness.

THIRD PERSON:

Laney woke up in a white room, with little stickers all over the wall in an attempt to make it more colorful. The heart beat monitor was annoying the crap out of her. With a sigh she tried to get the IV plugged into her wrist off. She paid little attention to the one person that walked into the room.

So, when some one pulled her hand off the IV, her first instinct was to scream and slap the hand away. The owner of the hand redrew quickly.

"Laney? Are you okay?" The voice was really familiar…

COREY!

"Umm… yeah. I am. Why am I here?" Laney was trying to act like she didn't know, but it wasn't turning out to well. Corey looked angry for a second before smiling like normal.

"So your dad turned out to be abusing you, and Me, Kin and Kon went to you house and saved you! But you passed out before you could explain why you weren't telling us…so… why didn't you tell us?" He looked so sad! Laney flinched, she had never wanted Corey to know. Especially Corey.

"Well, like you already know, my mom died. And my dad turned to drugs and got drunk, like all the time. But it wasn't his fault! He was just being a drunk idiot…" Laney finished awkwardly. Corey looked at her with his signature eyebrow raise.

"Laney, you have 2 broken ribs, a black eye" as he said that, he lightly touched the area around Laney's eye. "And both your wrists are sprained." He continued. Laney looked away. Corey frowned. This was not the Laney he knew and loved. This Laney was so different from that! It made Corey sad that her own father turned her into that.

SKIPING ALL THE SAP TRANSITION!

Two weeks passed and Laney was allowed out of the hospital. Since she no longer had a dad, he got sent to jail then rehab for abuse and his drinking addiction. Corey had offered to take her in, and she had agreed. 'Bout two months passed before the next gig, and Kin and Kon were very excited. Laney and Corey had been acting like idiots toward each other, (it was so obvious that they liked each other) so Kin being the smart genius he was, had decided to do something about it.

He knew about Corey's mental scars from seeing his crush all broken, and he also knew about Laney's abuse issues. He and Kon worked all night on a song for Corey, and it didn't work some well.

"KON! Don't screw up my computer! That has the song on it!"

"Kin, the song doesn't have any food mentions!"

"Kon, that's not what the song is supposed to be about!"

"Kin, come on!"

"*Sigh* Fine. Lets just print a song off the internet."

"Agreed"

NEXT DAY TRANSITION!

Corey got on the stage with the lyrics Kin had handed him.

"HELLO PEACEVILLE! ARE YOU READY TO ROCK?!" He yelled like in a normal concert. He was rewarded with an enthusiastic cheer of the town that was watching them.

"Battle Scars""Battle Scars"
(feat. Lupe Fiasco)

[Intro: Lupe Fiasco]
Hope the wound heals but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
You're at war with love, yeah

[Hook: Guy Sebastian]
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle...

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
Arrow holes, they never close from Cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up
And you know that you should know
And let her go
But the fear of the unknown
Hold another lover strong
Sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
A lover not a fighter
On the front line with a poem
Trying to write yourself a rifle
Maybe sharpen up a stone
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone

[Pre-hook: Guy Sebastian]
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over (never be over) until you tell me it's over

[Hook: Guy Sebastian]
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle...

[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
(Then just leave then)
You shouldn't have but you said it
(And I hope you never come back)
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Shields, body armors and vests don't properly work
That's why you're in a locker full of hurt
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
The best medicine's to probably just let it win

[Pre-hook: Guy Sebastian]
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over

[Bridge: Guy Sebastian & Lupe Fiasco]
Cause you set me on fire
I've never felt so alive, yeah

No, hoping wounds heal, but it never does
That's because you're at war with love

And I'm at the point of breaking
And it's impossible to shake it (yeah)

See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
Hope it heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love!

[Hook: Guy Sebastian]
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
I ain't ever gonna change
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle scars don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
I ain't never gonna change
These battle...

Corey ended the song with a little glance toward Laney. Then, totally random, he rushed over and kissed Laney in front of all of peaceville. It was dead quiet.

Long story short, Corey and Laney are dating now, and everyone lived happily ever after.

THE END!
