The Worst Wedding Of The Century, chapter 3
It was one week after the shocking funeral of Gerard and Claire Way. The people who attended the funeral were all still shocked about what had happened.... But had to get on with their daily lives.... Everyone except the dead couples' best friends Frank Iero and his wife-to-be Sam.
"Its been a whole week since their bodies vanished and theres been nothing. No sight or sound out of either of them." Sam was feeding her baby trent his breakfast of gooey porridge. On the other side of the table frank was feeding the same disgusting goo to Gerard and Claires orphaned daughter, Electra.
"I think they're waiting for something big to happen, then they're going to strike...like a world series final or something."
Sam shrugged off this idea straight away. "No no no....they wouldnt waste their time on something as unimportant as that..... They will hit somewhere that had meaning in their lives.... Somewhere that was important..... And I think I know just the place...."
"Here. Why here?"
One week later, Sam had taken Frank to Manchester Arena. There was method in her madness.... As she was about to explain...
"Dont you get it? Exactly one year ago, today was the day that Gerard and Claire first met! And us two.... But you dont seem to hold that in high regard....And I think that this will be the first place that they will attack. Vampires usually prey on places that had significant meanings in their lives.... They start from a place that they hold in their hearts, and work up to the place where they met their death. Cant you see? This will be the first target... And the church will be their last! I dont know how i know this...i just know it. It's like I've done it all before..." Sam stopped there to think about what she had just said. It had all come out so quickly and she didn't even realise what she was saying. How did she know all of this? She didn't exactly pay much attention to Claire's vampire talk.... But maybe she was paying attention now... Listening to those beyond the grave...
"Ok ok. Let me take all that in. So tonight, a year on from our meeting, Gerard and Claire will come back here as vampires and will kill.... Who exactly will they kill?"
"Ok that I'm unsure of. Who's performing here tonight?"
They both ran up to the ticket booth and grabbed an advertising leaflet.
Frank looked down the list, "Erm...tonight will be....Green Day!"
"What?!?!? They cant kill Green Day! Jeese Frank, Billie Joe's like one of your best friends!"
"I know.... Shit Sam what are we gonna do?" Frank started to walk out of the building with his head in his hands. It was all getting too much for him. In the last few months he had become a dad, whitnessed his very best friend be brutally murdered, then he was loaded with his dead friend's baby. Now he was told his dead best friend was gonna come back and kill one of the best rock bands in the world. He didnt know how much madness he could take....
"Frank... Dont worry.... I wont let Green Day die. We dont know who Claire's gonna kill....." Sam somehow knew that all this was beyond her control, yet she felt that she had to try and help out...it was her duty... "Come on...lets get some coffee and phone up the babysitter...i hope Trent doesnt crawl too near that washing machine again...."
