The Halloween Switcharoo

Pre-Show Jitters

Shelby and I were following the boys through the chaos when suddenly...

"Ahh! Shit!!" Shelby screamed.

I looked over at her and I saw a couple zombies grabbing her and pulling her to the ground. "Fuck no!!" I yelled.

"Alpha gamma annihilate!" Tré yelled. That caused me to beat another crazy drum fill onto all the zombies' heads and stabbing one of them in the eye with one of my drumsticks. The zombies all burst into flames and vanished.

"What the hell?!? You trigger drum fills with groups of three words?!?" I yelled at Tré. He nodded.

"That one was specially made to kill zombies!" He cheered. I looked at everyone else.

"It's Tré..." Billie said.

"You shouldn't be surprised..." Mike continued. Shelby nodded in agreement.

"Well...I'm glad you were...prepared..."

"Yea me too! I thought I wasn't gonna need that until 12-21-12!" Shelby laughed.

"Tré, you think the zombie apocalypse is gonna start on 12-21-12?"

"No! That's bullshit! I think that people are gonna be up late on 12-20-12 and then they'll become zombies! With that fill, I can stop the zombies all by myself!" Shelby and I looked at eachother and chuckled under our breath.

*************

We arrived at the venue. It was small, but still, it's a fucking concert.

"Christon... Can I talk to you for a sec?" Shelby sounded shaky. She walked behind a wall. I followed. "I'm scared as hell..." she muttered.

"Aww... It's okay." I pulled her into a hug. "I'm pretty scared, too, but hey! Look at it this way: we finally got to go to a Green Day concert together." She laughed.

"Yea, but we ARE the Green Day concert!"

"Just pretend we're playing Rock Band at home. And have fun! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!"

She smiled. I sensed a newfound confidence in her. She went back out towards the boys with a cocky grin. She looked at everyone for a moment.

"Alright..." She took a deep breath. "Let's do this shit..."

The boys smirked. "That's the confidence I like to see!" Billie said.

Tré hopped up and down. "This is gonna be great!!" he cheered. "I can't wait to see it!!"

"Tré, we have to try and change everything back to normal!"

"Oh..." Tré looked down. "Okay."

"The witch is in that huge mansion that was behind us when you found us. Kick her ass," I growled. Tré and Billie nodded and ran off.

"Okay, this is the setlist. You sure you two are gonna be okay?" Mike asked.

"As sure as ever!" We said. Mike laughed.

"Then let's do this."

***************

(Billie's P.O.V:)

Tré and I looked at eachother once we got to the mansion. He nodded at me to knock the door.

"She can't be that scary, right?" he asked.

"Surely not as scary as you," I teased. He put his hands on his hips.

"Hey now!" I laughed harder and knocked on the door. The witch came out. She wasn't that scary. In fact she was kinda attractive... Okay, focus! She had a terrifying look in her eyes.

"What do you want?" she growled. Tré screamed and hid behind me.

"Okay! She's scary! REALLY SCARY!! BILLIE KEEP HER AWAY FROM ME!!!" I rolled my eyes.

"Tré..." I growled.

"So you're the actual Billie Joe Armstrong and Tré Cool?" she cackled. "So what'd you do with those two girls? And more importantly, why are you here?"

"Noneya. And we're here to change everything back."

"You really think YOU can stop me? That's a riot! Two musicians think they can take on ME!"

"Not just any musicians, bitch! We're fucking punk rockers! We know how to handle ourselves in a fight!"

"Says the doll with a drag queen who's scared shitless of me."

I looked over at Tré, who was hiding in a bush.

This is gonna be harder than I thought
