Thump. Thump. Thump. Somebody on stage dropped something. Apparently it was small, round, as it bounced three times before drifting across the stage, away from the roadie that was trying to set something up. Samantha watched as the unknown roadie scrambled to set up the background before abandoning that cause to someone else so he could run after whatever it was that had dropped. It was almost an amusing scene, but she was feeling a pain in her side where somebody's hit her in the mosh pit during The Dillinger Escape Plan, which was the band that had just played. She wasn't exactly a fan of Dillinger, and in fact had only ever heard a few of their songs before, but it seemed the fans were insane.
Even now, as Dillinger had long since left the stage, it seemed the Dillinger fans were trying to kill. They swooned left and right, back and forth, creating what must have looked like a wave to anybody standing on a balcony above. Sam saw a girl disappear beneath somebody, only to resurface a moment later, kicking and cursing at somebody for pushing her down. It was ridiculous, Sam thought, that people were going crazy, even though there was no music playing. But she'd known ahead of time that was what Dillinger fans were like. It was a serious change from the first band that had played, Nightmare of You. Almost nobody did anything during the duration of their show, and indeed as they ended a song, somebody shouted out, "GET OFF THE STAGE!"
It was a rude thing, but Sam couldn't have agreed with them more.
Finally, as the crowd seemed to grow more and more anxious, the band she was there to see finally came onto the stage. Everything went dark, and the beginning of Miseria Cantare began. Odd, it was, for that song to start, as they normally start off concerts with the first track of their latest album. The first track of Decemberunderground was Prelude 12/21, so shouldn't that have been the first song played? But whatever, she liked this one so much better.
Davey Havok's voice filled the small theater, nothing but darkness on stage. But even so, Sam was only a person away from the front, and could easily see a silhouette walk on, wearing an all white outfit. "Nothing from nowhere, I am nothing at all. Radiate. Recognize one silent call as we all form one dark flame."
The crowd shouted out, "INCINERATE! LOVE YOUR HATE! YOUR FAITH LOST! YOU ARE NOW ONE OF US!"
And indeed she was.

Samantha jumped, startled by the arms that suddenly wrapped themselves around her body. But the touch was familiar, and it did not take her more than a moment or two to realize who it was. "How on earth did you get through this crowd?" She screamed over the loud cheering, ducking lower as a crowd surfer went over, taken down immediately by a guard and sent to the back.
[[Eeew. Sucky post. XD Oh well.]]

"YEAH RIGHT!" She said, pushing a kid away from her who was trying to get into her spot.
Just then, the highlight of the event occured. Davey, the lead singer of AFI, backed up slightly. The crowd cheered, they knew what he was going to do. And then, without hesitation, he jumped into the crowd. Sam raised her hands to help keep him in the air, smiling all the while. He stood on them, held up by nothing but the hands of his cheering fans.

Damion laughed keeping him up as well,and watching all the girls and some guys going nuts including his girlie,it was fucking brilliant the mind controllthis guy had over everyone,and thats all damion ever really wanted, to be a leader..
As the set started to end the crowd seemed to get a bit crazier on the arrival of the last song and of davey's good bye's,he stood back and admired a true hero and insperation nothing could ruin this night..
Standing with rizzo at his side as the last song ended he smiled.
"wanna go ahead and get outta this thing or u think the amazing davey is gonna pull more songs out his sleeve?"

"I don't know," she called to him, pushing her way through the crowd. "PIT! THE PIT!" She said, turning her head to look at him. "LETS GO!" Okay, she'd only ever been in a pit once before, and that was during a Metallica concert. Hardcore, really, but she about had her nose broken. That didn't stop her from trying it again. This was AFI. Not just any old band, but AFI. She wanted the full experience.
"Come on!"

Damion laughed shoving his way thru with her and on went the full blown mosh,fist were thrown,ribs were bruised,and dame was nowhere else but his own heaven.
Coming out of the show he was laughing with Riz about earlier events of the show.
"man Rizzy ud never believe how i got here",he laughed more thinking about it."i hitched a ride from three people and this one guy he looked like he wanted to eat me and it turns out he was comin here as well with an extra ticket in his pocket"
He laughed smiling,his arm around the back of her."wheres ur buddy Alek i may hate her but hey that was a kick ass show that the whole world deserved to see even Alek,and where the hell is Gomory..i havn't seen or heard from her in a few days to be truthfull and thats abnormal for me and her and even u know that..ah oh well shes probly ok,and who cares anyway cuz right now im with my one and only"
He smiled and kissed her head.

Samantha shrugged and pushed her way through the exodus. One person, in an aweful capricious voice, said, "Watch it!" As she shoved them out of the way. She was exhausted, and most of all, dehidrated. She needed water, and didn't care who she hurt on the way out!
"I have," she said in a breath voice, "no idea where Alek is. I haven't seen her for a few days, either, at least not outside of school. She actually comes to school, you know." She made her way up to the guys selling water, and slapped down a five. "Two waters please," she coughed, her throat dry.
The guy handed her two bottles, and she hurried off with Damion before he could give the change back. Opening the bottle, she downed about half of it. "That concert was fantastic. Can't say I liked the first band, but Dillinger was okay, but oh my god... AFI..."

Dame laughed a bit.
"i'll uh pay u back for the water, and yeah AFI fucking rocked",he took the whole she actually comes to school thing kinda to heart,i mean yeah she goes to school cuz shes liked, she doesn't get into fights for breathing everyday by jocks,he had a damn good reason to be out of school he felt but obviously no one else saw that,not even his own girlfriend and thats what he liked about Gomory she was the only one to understand cuz people fight her too.
In other words he wasn't going to let one comment bring his night down..and maybe it was stupid he even took it to heart,but now he seemed more distant.
"so uh i guess i'll walk home,my car broke down earlier and its being a bitch to me,so if im ever going to make it back before 5 this morning i better get going now.."

"Oh, don't be an emo kid." She said, leaning up against a wall outside. People filed around her, laughing and joking, playing with their friends. Cars honked on the street, they could hardly get through the clogged area. It seemed a million people were there, but it was probably around two-hundred. "I'll drive you home. My car's working, and I don't think it's going to break down anytime soon. And didn't I tell you to get a new car? Told you it was going to break down." She winked and poked him in the chest. "Emo."
