What's taking Hazal so long?
Do I need to keep saving her spot all the time at the concert? Do I not have a life of my own?
She was always like this. Bossy. Commanding. She acted like she was the head of the military rather than an older sibling.
She was lucky she had me. Had she been blessed with a brother, they would have been boxing everyday.
" Cara. Come over. The band just came on stage. You don't want to be missing. "
It was Rosey. My best friend. She was my all time favorite. Soft and gentle. Understanding. Very unlike the tyrant I had to bear with everyday.
" Coming, " I yelled back. I was going. Hazal could boss her way in if she wanted. I didn't give a damn about it.
It was the Offsprings. The most popular boy band around. The guys were supper cool. Charming and talented. They made the entire crowd swoon.
" Weeeheeee! "
We joined the crowd. They were yelling and screaming.
" We love you Offsprings! "
Suddenly a crazy b***h tore her top and threw at them. And suddenly started shifting.
" No shifting during the concert guys. We have to ask anybody who is shifting to leave first. Please. It's in violation of our concert rules. "
The moderator immediately spotted the anomaly. And two Pack Warrior Guards came towards to drag and escort b***h high on her transformation, outside.
This was the only thing I didn't like about these events. The chaos and insensitivity of most people. But I really liked drooling over these males. Their perfect physique, their perfect looks. It took me to another dimension of fantasy, where I could spin silly romance in my head.
" Cara this way, " Rosey pulled me further. Taking me towards the front of the stage this time.
" Hello everybody! Miss me? "
It was my favorite, Brett on the mic and that was his catch phrase.
I turned towards him. Looking. Because that was all that could ever happen between the two of us.
Tapped the mic sexily with his fingers. The bitches around me were fainting with o****m.
Damn. It would have been better to stay at home and listen to his voice alone in peace. Here , though I got to see him in person, the noises kept getting to my brain.
Rosey had by this time, successfully pulled me infront.
" Ouch! "
I had a clear view of Brett now. But things got more problematic. The crowd kept pushing me from the back.
" Ouch! Ouch! "
I kept complaining repeatedly.
Their first song had already started. The crowd too was singing along.
All hands risen. Swinging to and fro. Matching the perfect rhythm. The lights beeped and swayed. Perfectly synchronised. Filling the air with more endeavor.
There was sudden light in the sky up ahead.
Was it a part of the lighting arrangements. Nobody seemed to notice it but me. I looked around and then began to sway again.
" We hope you guys liked it, "
Their first song was over. The crowd cheeres to confirm. " Lets move onto the next, " They changed the notes and shuffled a bit. Brett even went ahead and changed his coat.
I must admit he looked even more dashing.
" Ahem... Ahem... "
Mic check done. They were about to begin the second song when suddenly they stopped and turned back. There was some commotion at the backstage.
Shouts. Hustle. Some screams. Was it a super distressed fan?
There was murmuring. Heads turning this way and that way guessing.
The boys on stage too kept looking at their back.
Then there was an unforeseen happening.
A man, tall, sturdy, handsome walked right upto the mic from the backstage.
The boys immediately moved back. Scurrying to be exact.
There was a soft yell from the crowd.
I turned to see the masses step back. Only I was the one still standing.
" Cara... Move back... Move back. "
It was Rosey. Hiding behind another girl. Calling me desperately with one hand.
I looked up again. The man was looking straight at me.
He smelled very weird. Nothing like a wolf.
" Hello everyone. "
He smiled as he took the stage.
Was he mimicking my Brett? It made me furious.
" I see my presence has spoilt all your fun. But I come in peace. "
He lifted his hands as if to surrender. His eyes. They looked like they belonged to a ghost.
" I swear. We have come to meet your leader. We are an official representative.
Its just that our Pod crashed as we reached the moon's surface. And I got separated from my friends.
I just needed to know the direction to your Governance House. I have been asking around so long for that but everyone seems be running and hiding from me.
Do I really look like a monster? "
He looked like he was enjoying what he was saying. Like it was some great achievement.
" Hey you over there. Come here. "
He was pointing towards me.
I looked around to make sure. Yeah. It was definitely me.
I could hear Rosey's faint whimper. Why the heck now was she crying.
I walked confidently upto him.
" Yes? "
" Yes? "
His lips curled back as he leered. His teeths exposed. No they weren't teeth. Those were fangs.
" You do not seem to be afraid of me. "
He asked looking me down head to toe.
" Why should I? "
Apart from his smell, I could not find anything odd. May be his eyes. And hair. And ears. Whatever. They weren't scary at all. Were they?
" No reason. Then please take me to the Governance House. "
He smiled.
" Why would I? Just go there yourself.
Glide up. Hundred leaps forward, left turn, then another two hundred. It's not that far. "
