At the show, Cody was loving every moment of this spectacle Blade Cross was putting on for all his fans going wild at seeing his cool moves. Without admitting it, Loona herself was liking this kind of event a great deal.

The celebrity was posing in front of the audience audience like he was a WWE champion, flexing his muscles and all

"Are you all not entertained?!" The audience roared in cheering as a response, including Cody. "I said: are you not entertained?!" Then the crowd cheered louder than before. "Yeaaahhh! Nothing is as sharp as a Blade. That's right, no Blade will ever be as sharp and deadly as me!"

From the looks of it, this guy sounded rather full of himself and would probably kiss at himself in a mirror whenever there was a mirror. Nevertheless, everyone in the audience was enjoying this martial arts show. The next part of it was; an armored man came out from backstage to the right, and looked ready for a fight. Alas, Blade was also ready for a brawl to happened. He began punching and kicking the armored man and dodging some punches from his opponent.

This battle was getting fierce between these men, but eventually Blade cross managed to gain the upper hand by giving a sweep kick to the armored man's legs, and kicked him in the chest, making him fall to the floor, right on his belly, leaving the crowd applauding and cheering some more as the event ended.

"Thank you!, Thank you all for your love and support, everyone." Blade bowed himself proudly as the curtains closed.

"Well, I gotta admit," said Loona. "That was pretty awesome."

Before being led backstage and getting to meet his idol, Cody needed to pee. After he was finished, he met with her outside the bathroom. Being led by a couple of bodyguards, Cody hadn't been backstage here since the Tesla concert two years ago with his dad before the terrible tragedy. There was a long line of people just waiting to meet and greet Blade Cross right now. Cody hoped that this wouldn't take all night, for it was already ten-thirty right now.

Of course, being his adopted big sister, Loona kept close to Cody in case something bad happened to him since people weren't allowed to bring weapons to this event for obvious reasons. Both of them were having sodas, with Cody having a medium cup and Loona an extra large one (probably because of her large hellhound appetite and metabolism).

At last, after almost five minutes, it was Cody and Loona's turn to meet this legend.

Cody excitedly stepped up and accidentally tripped, accidentally flinging his drink up in the air, and, to add insult to injury, the whole drink landed on top of Blade Cross himself, making him yell and curse, having his head, shoulders, and his shirt were wet from the soda that was splashed on him.

The crowd gasped in shock to see what had just happened. "Jesus Christ!" Said Blade. "This is my favorite shirt!" The next thing he did was; get out of his booth and give Cody supposedly a dressing down to put it lightly.

Blade towered over the kid, and Cody gulped. "I'm... i'm very sorry, Blade." said Cody, looking very embarrassed.

"Oh you're sorry?" said Blade sarcastically with his arms crossed and rolling his eyes. "Yeah, that makes eveything better. Just fan-fucking-tastic!"

"It was an accident." Cody said.

"Accident? Pah! Nothing happens by accident. No. Everything happens for a reason."

"But, Blade-"

"Look at you, you kids are all the same to my eyes, fucking reckless, stupid, and just plain chaotic." Cody looked shocked and hurt by those words. "Oh why an i even talking to you?" Blade scoffed. "Just look at you," then he sniffed the top of Cody's head, giving him a look of disgust. "Did you sleep in a pig sty last night?"

Appalled by this asshole's actions, Loona was shocked by this. This is supposed to be great "Blade Cross" that Cody and many people loved and adored so much? A self-centered egomaniac that would talk to a poor child like this? Deep down, Loona was now feeling guilty about buying those damn tickets in the first place.

"But Blade," said Cody, "i'm your biggest fan, and it was an accident, I promise! I swear on my mom's grave!"

"You're my biggest fan? And, wow! Ok, swearing on your mother's grave? That's a new low for a kid like you, You're-" before he could finish however, he was interrupted by Loona stepping up to defend Cody, snarling and growling at the egomaniac

"Shut the fuck up, you fucking asswipe!" Loona said to Blade

"Ho ho ho, who do we have here?" said the martial artist in an amused voice. "A pretty lady coming to bask in my fame and glory?"

"what? Pfft, why the fuck would i even bask at somone like you?"

Before Loona knew it, he felt herself being swooned by Blade, holding her in a tango dance position, "because i'm famous and rich. I get all the money and sexy ladies that i want to get, including you." He bounced his eyebrows three times to prove his point.

"Ok, now you've gone to far." Loona narrowed her eyes before giving him a slap to the face.

"Let me tell you, you're the most beautiful lady i have ever laid my eyes on. Are ya married?"

"No, but you're not my type." Loona bluntly said as he got. her wrists off of this Big Shot. Alas, Blade Cross looked unfazed by her rude remarks.

"Heh, Got a feisty one here, I like that." said Blaze,

Loona growled and angrily said: "Feisty? Feisty?! REALLY?!"

"Whoa whoa whoa, Loona calm down." said Cody.

"Calm down?" said the disguised female hellhound. "How can i possibly calm down when this... this..." she looked at some of the other kids who are with their family members in the line, "Bozo is being fresh with me?"

"Blade, do you really think i'm a loser?"

"Look, kid, can I talk to you in private for a second?" Blade pulled him away to behind the booth. "Look, buddy, i don't care about my adoring public, or my fans or what they think. All i care about is the money, nothing more. So do yourself a favor kid, and go away, i need to tend to everyone else and get more money on me." At this, a tear fell from Cody's left eye, just seeing how much of an asshole someone he admired was. Zakk Wylde and his badass band definitely didn't behave like this.

The martial artist ignored the tear from Cody's eye and just brought him back to Loona. "As for you, little lady, how about we make out after i'm done meeting my fans?"

"Oh i think not." Loona said

"Come on, i have mint breath." without warning, he tried to Kiss Loona but the disguised female hellhound gave him a hard punch to the face, knocking him out cold.

"I think, Cody, we should leave." Loona calmly said. "Come on."

"Yeah... let's go." Cody sighed as he followed Loona to the back door, and sat under the porch-light. "I can't believe him."

"I know! What does that fucking asswipe think he is?" Loona agreed while sounding offended. "That asshole." she looked at the back door with her teeth grinding as she was snarling. "World's greatest martial artist, my ass!" trying to calm herself down, she sighed, and looked at her adopted brother. "Are you ok, Cody?"

"Yes." but Loona could tell that Cody was not ok by the sound of his voice.

"Come on, just tell me."

"Fine, no. I can't believe i like that guy in the first place." he then kicked a nearby empty soda can in anger, making it crash to the front of a dumpster.

"what did he say to you?" asked Loona in a soft voice.

"That he doesn't care about his fans, only money." the boy wiped his nose.

"Aw, Cody." the next thing the disguised hellhound did was hug him close to her on the side. "I'm so sorry."

"That guy is a big jerk. Definitely not like Zakk Wylde."

"Heh, tell me about it." Loona smirked. "But, i think it's like that saying: Never meet your heroes."

"I guess so."

Looking very sympathetic to him, Loona said: "Look, how about we go get some air at the Blood Burger, huh?"

"Sure."
