Life's Passing

Andy's POV

We got out of the concert with little word from CC. I knew that I had scared him to death. I mean once I saw that night how I looked as I was wiping the blood off my face. I kinda scared me to.
*** I stood looking at my self in the mirror. Ashley waited outside of the door to keep an eye on me. Apearntly I had gotten up in my sleep with a nose bleed and just loomed over CC staring at him. I could tell that he was afraid. After he made sure I was myself he got up and went straight to his bunk.
I picked up the wash cloth and began to wipe my face not finding much progress. The blood came off, but it left behind a pale face with black circle under the eyes. My brow looked like it was starting to get winkles in it. I couldn't even remember the last time I smiled other than being on stage, and my eyes. They were going red.
*** We walked to the meet and greet after the concert and I sort of kept to myself. John opened the big back doors that lead out to the parking lot and everyone perked up. We rushed to meet our fans and talk to them, hearng there stories and giving what we could in exchange. There was mostly girls in war paint hooving around and a couple guys who were strangly just as passionate. There was one man dressed in a dark hoodie pulled so tight that you couldn't see his face. I shrugged it off and saw a girl with cd and a t shirts waving it around the air and calling my name. " Hi! How did you like the show?" I asked walking over to her.

~POV~

They guys all found them selves busy signing objects that people had brough to the show. Most were pusshing and shoving to try to get a glimpse or a touch of one of the boys, some how making it around the body gaurds. However there was one person how seemed to monover with no problem at all. The man in the black hoodie walked through the crowd with ease slowly getting closer and closer to Andy. Once he was right on top of him the hooded man reached in his front pocket and pulled out a gun shoving it into Andy's back and pulled the trigger as fast as he could then took off.

Everyone in the crowd covered there ers at the sound as Andy seemed to realise the pain he was in. With a distorted face he looked down and the hole that had just been created in the front of his hip and then fell to the ground.

Ashley's POV

There was a loud bang. Then chaos broke loose. I looked over to Andy and saw him falling to the ground. A group of gaurds pulled the fan girls away from him as I rushed over to him. " ANDY!!" I screamed. I looked down to see his hands trying to reach for his side. They were covered in blood that was spilling out of him. All the guys were circled around him trying to calm him down. I held shoulders to the ground, Jake and CC were trying to hold his hands down Jinxx and John were on the phone with 911. "What the fuck happened?" I yelled hoping anyone could answer me. Andy was screaming and struggling against us. "You have to lay still Andy." Jake was screaming at him. Finally he passed out and stopped fighting against us. I could hear the sounds of sirens getting louder and louder. There must have been a billion cops there holding the crowds back. Three guys came running over to us with a streacher. They urged us to move back so they could take a look at him. "Lets the cops know that the bullet isn't in him anymore." One of them said. I looked at him strangely. "Bullet?!" I yelled. "Sir, I'm going to need to ask you to calm down. How well do you know him?" He asked me. "Very well, whats going on?" I was so confused. " Will you ride with us in the ambulance so we can get medical information from you?" He asked me I shook my head yes as they were pulling his body onto the make shift bed. I followed behind them as the other guys rushed off to John's car.
We climbed into the back of the ambulance and I put my hand on Andy's shoulder as the men pushed needles into him and forced oxygen into his lungs.

Andy's POV

There was a loud noise, and then lots of pain as I felt my legs fall out from under me. I clutched my side and I felt blood oozing out onto me hands. "Fuck!!!" I crid out. I tried to get to the pain to see what had happened but they guys were holding me down. The pain took over my whole body as I screamed out. I had never felt this before not even when I jumped off stage or when I broke my nose. Nothing could even compare to this. I waasn't able to take it. I tried to concentrate on Jake telling me to be still but his voice was slowly fading. I looked over to CC. Poor CC, I wonder if I will get the chace to apologize to him. Ashley sitting right above me. God, he took me under his wing in the worst of times. He'd take care of them if I didn't come out of this. Slowly then the blackness started to take over the sounds of confusion that surrounded me and one prominate face came to mind. The same one that had been haunting me for the past couple of weeks. God Dammit.

I could see his whole form now. He stood there seeming to loom over me with a cheeky grin streching his face. He turned slowly wating me to look over in the distance. I saw Juliet. She stood there looking unresponsive. I yelled for her to run but she stayed in place. Then man walked over to her and I tried to cath up but couldn't. "Fucking run Juilet!!!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. "Get away from her!" I yelled at the man. He turned back around to me and with a flash his face and body turned to mine though slightly different. My eyes were a terrible yellowish color and my left hand was extended into a claw. He moved to stand behind her and and placed the claw across her chest just under her throat. I tried to run over there when I felt restrained and looked down to see chains wrapped around me. "Dont fucking touch her you peice of shit!!" I growled at him. He looked over to me one more time. " I love your anger." and with that one sentence he moved the claw in one swift movement across Juilet's throat. The blooded poured from her neck yet she remained standing. I screamed out as I saw it puddle on the floor. The other me slowly moved from behind her and started walking over to me. I sat on my knees sobbing onto the floor.

"Keep it up, and you will be right where I need you."
