Chapter 4

The bus was a mansion! They failed to tell us that there were two buses. The one we were on was a recreational bus. The bus that followed us had the beds in it. Two bathrooms, a kitchen with a fold out table. The one we were currently on had a kitchen also with a table. It had a small bedroom in the very back that held a full size bed. Before you got to that was the small recording studio. It was the size of a bathroom without the shower. It had a stool, a mike that hung from the ceiling, and a stand. It recorded to a small box that hung on the wall. When we were done we would take our work to a studio and tweak it how we felt it should be. Both buses had a room for video games or watching movies. The floor to these rooms was made out of mattresses. So comply.

We had been on the road for about 3 hours now; some of us were in the movie room watching Drag Me To Hell. This was a messed up movie. I was sitting with my back to a pillow with my legs spread out in front of me. Wesley was on my right, and my left was empty. Zachy and Johnny were sprawled out on the floor at our feet. Next to Wesley was Jimmy. Where our guys were I had no clue. It was too quiet if they were on this bus.
Watching the movie, the old dead woman was haunting the cursed girl. She was going to hell no matter what. I was jumpy, I loved scary moves but they did scare me. Screaming out when the dead lady appeared out of no where I scared Zachy, as he jumped.

“Sorry, Zachy.” I laughed a little.

“It’s good. This old bat is a little creepy.”

I hadn't noticed that the door had opened, the room was dark except for the movie, Wesley had his arm around me.

“Hahahaha.” A cynical voice at the door not only scared me, but Wesley, Jimmy, Zachy and Johnny as well. I screamed, but not as loud as Jimmy.

Throwing my head in Wesley's chest. I was afraid that the woman had come back in demon form to get me. But the voice sounded like the person who wanted to hurt me from so long ago.

“Damn, I should have done that a while ago.” What the hell?

Looking up I saw Shadows standing at the door with a flashlight on his face. Oh that fucker was gonna pay.

“Dude, your dead.” I stood up slowly.

“Fuck man, RUN!” Wesley screamed at him. I was serious, when I said someone was dead.

Throwing the flash light on the floor, I chased after him. This bus was big, but not many places to hide. Running to the front of the bus, He was no where to be seen. What the fuck.

“Where is he?” I was angry. I nearly pissed myself back there. I still have no clue what I was going to do. I felt my adrenaline pumping through my veins.

“Where is who?” Syn stopped playing with his guitar to stare at me. Aron and Vince were on the couch playing with their guitars as well.

“Shadows.” It came out as a growl, I was furious.

“Um, he went back that way,” Syn motioned behind me, “Towards the bunks. What he do?”

“Scared the fucking piss outta me.” I was mad. I was beyond mad. I wanted revenge.

“Oh shit, he’s a goner.” Vince was looking at me. I was enraged.

“This could be good.” Aron stood up, to follow me.

Walking back to the bunks, I listened softy. Turning to glare at the boys who had followed me to keep quiet I listened. It was quiet, too quiet. I don’t remember which bunk he had claimed as his own, but I doubt he would be in it.

“Okay, what the hell is going on?” Jimmy had left the media room to investigate.

“She is out for blood, man.” Syn, stood behind me. I did not see him motioning that who I was looking for was hiding in the media room where Jimmy had just come from.

I couldn’t do this now. No I would make him suffer. My boys knew I meant business when I got revenge. So doing what I did best, I walked over to the small recording room. Shut the door, turned on the mike. Pressed record. I had a few lyrics that had been stuck in my head.

“Made a wrong turn
Once or twice
Dug my way out
Blood and fire
Bad decisions
That's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, missundaztood Miss "no way it's all good"
It didn't slow me down Mistaken Always second guessing Underestimated Look, I'm still around...
Pretty, pretty please Don't you ever, ever feel Like your less than
Fuckin' perfect Pretty, pretty please If you ever, ever feel
Like your nothing You're fuckin' perfect to me
You're so mean When you talk About yourself
You are wrong Change the voices In your head
Make them like you Instead So complicated
Look how big you'll make it”

It was all just a big jumble right now, but that felt good. I felt a little bit better at the moment. I just hope my demons weren't really coming to get me. I know that I am putting myself out there in the public eye with the band. But this was my outlet in life. They wouldn’t try anything while I'm in the public eye, hence all the weapons. I could defend myself it need be. I am a yellow belt.

Pushing the stop button I turned around and saw some of the guys were staring at me. Well not my guys, the Avengers were. Especially the one I wanted to rip apart a few minutes ago. But I will be nice; he is young and needs to live his life. They all, minus Johnny, were only three years older than me. They could also buy us underage people liquor. Wes wouldn’t have to use his fake ID.

I just stared at them. I wanted to tell them, but it’s not their place to know. Maybe in due time I will open up to them. But for now I wanted to watch another movie. We would be on this damn bus until we either stopped at a hotel for the night or come to our destination tomorrow night.

“So who do I have to convince to get the driver to stop for drinks?” I asked after I stepped out of the booth. I need a strong drink.

“I can do it.” Jimmy took off like a bat outta hell. I swear where does he get all of this energy form? Looking around I only saw Syn and Shadows now. He looked scared a little.

“Don’t worry your safe, for now.” I smiled at him, and walked back to the media room.

“Fuck man, what did you do to her?” Syn asked his friend. He had never seen someone go from raging mad to perfectly calm in a matter of minutes. And he had gone to school with some messed up teenage girls. Even dated a few. So had Shadows.

"Shit i thought i was just gonna play a joke on them. damn she's gonna kill me."

"At least she's hot." Syn just laughed as he walked away.

"Ya, that's true."

I wonder if she's dating that Wes guy?
