Say It What It Were!, chapter 3
(No one's POV)
A loud crash flooded the arena. The crowd gasped as they saw the bright sparks flash and fly to all directions. ''FUCK! '' Billie's eyes grew wide. They rushed over to the scattered pieces of glass and metal. ''SHIT, TRE? ''
''Mike, what is it? '' Billie asked, worried. Mike pointed at the unconscious Tre, pinned under the pole that must have been at least a foot thick. Billie's eyes started to water as looked at his body. He had a large gap on his head that was bleeding consistently, a fat, purple lip, and a black eye. Jason propped up his head and cradled him softly. Billie kneeled beside Tre, ripped a piece of his sleeve off and pressed it softly on his head. At first, Billie pressed too hard on the fractured part of his head; causing it to 'give-in'. Crap, that can't be a good sign. ''Some one call the ambulance! ' Billie shouted, ''It's gonna be ok... Just hang on, help is on your way. '' Mike said softly, rubbing Tre's cheek.
Things started to get a little crazy on stage. Fans were pushing and shoving trying to get closer to the scene. One fan got past the security and went up to Billie, Mike and Jason. ''Hey can you pose near Tre? It'll make an awesome picture! ''
ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY?! '' Billie screamed. ''CAN YOU SEE WHATS GOING ON?! ''
''Erm, well... '' the fan started to tremble as Billie got up into his face. ''WHAT KIND OF FAN ARE YOU? ''
''Sorry, all I wanted was a picture... ''
''FUCKIN GREAT TIME FOR THAT, ISN'T IT! '' Billie yelled sarcastically, pushing the fan backwards. Mike stood up and put his hand on Billie's shoulder. "Hey, Bill, he's not worth fighting... Just chill. '' Billie looked down, and put his head into the palms of his hand. He began to cry. You see, when Billie gets mad, he acts mad, and when he's sad, he yells and screams like he's angry. "Dammit Mike! '' Billie said all broken-up. Mike embraced him in a hug. Billie pulled away, shaking his head. ''This is stupid... Thi... This whole day. '' Billie mourned. ''I just don't understand what went wrong! ''
''Neither do we Billie... Now were are those damn paramedics? '' Jason whined, still on the ground cradling Tre in his arms.
Mike's POV
The lights flickered, and came on nice and bright. Then I saw probably the most beautiful sight I had ever seen. It was like the amazing archangels came down from heaven to save us. It was only the paramedics... But, still... You know what I mean. They rushed over here with a dragged-out look on their face. When they saw Tre's crippled body, I thought they were going in shock. ''This is way worse than I expected. '' One of the ladies spoke-up. ''We need to get him to the ER right away! '' One of the men in the crew, ran and got the mic from the ground.
''Please evacuate in an orderly fashion. The concert has been cancelled. '' Our fans booed. For a moment I thought they were going to riot, they all started pushing and shoving trying to get to the front.
''Remember, this is for your safety, the safety of people around you, and drummer Tre Cool. ''
Nice save... Things were getting so chaotic. I didn't think we were gonna get out of here alive.
They strapped Tre on a helicopter lift and pulled him up. ''Wait! '' Billie shouted, grabbing onto the cord, ''Can't we come too?! '' The man looked down, ignoring Billie, and shrugged his shoulders. They were off the ground, and hovering off into the distance. ''Hey wait! '' Billie yelled.
''what a bitch. '' he said, plopping himself on the ground. He looked down at his feet, and crossed his legs looking into the crowd. ''ya know Mike, '' he said softly, looking up at me with guilty look on his face and red, tearful eyes. ''I really don't know what to do. '' I was speechless. I never thought I'll see the day when Billie gives up. He was the one who always had a back-up plan for the back-up plan. He was always ready to take the extra risk. But this, I had never seen. ''Well what are we doing just sitting here? Are we gonna see Tre or what? '' Jason said breaking the silence. I didn't even look up, I was still fixed on Billie's facial expression. It was so different; like he was a whole -nother guy. Jason grabbed me by the collar and whispered, ''Come-on guys, we can't kill ourselves over this, Tre needs our support more than ever! ''
