Nighttime in Vinyl City was quite the sight to behold, as the lights shone ever so brightly then before after the Music Revolution, since Tatiana allowed all artists to perform. And with the aftermath came new promising artists, new friendships, and a new lover that opened a new chapter in the life of the manager of 1010, Neon J.

Neon J first met (Y/N) when they moved into the Metro Division District of Vinyl City, and he noticed them as they attended one of the concerts his 5 robot sons performed in. (Y/N) also had a backstage pass and got to meet the 1010 members along with their cyborg manager and father, quickly becoming friends with Neon J and helping him take care of his sons.

Eventually the two got closer until they started dating, then it led to Neon J and (Y/N) being married almost a year later. Neon J's sons were thrilled that their dad found love, and that (Y/N) was their second parent too. Things were looking up for the famous kpop robot boyband in Vinyl City, fans, music, and family wise, but there were still some troubling issues that Neon J was still struggling with.

Being a war veteran as well as a kpop manager took its toll in the form of PTSD, which included near hyperventilating, and terrifying nightmares that kept Neon J awake at night.

Before (Y/N) became his married partner, Neon J would stay up on most nights after waking up from one nightmare after the other. Some nightmares would contain explosions, sounds of airplanes, screaming, and massive rubble and damage, but the worse ones would be the cyborg reliving the times he saw people die, especially his friends who fought alongside him, only to be killed right in front of him.

Neon J did his best to keep his personal issues and PTSD to himself, not wanting to worry anyone such as his coworkers, but his sons knew that something was up and tried to talk to their dad about it, only for Neon J to deny and dismiss their worries. After (Y/N) became a part of his life, the nightmares Neon J had seemed to almost stop completely, but sometimes they would come back to him.

Neon J knew that his spouse suspected that something was bothering him, but he didn't want (Y/N) to worry about the nightmares he was having. However on this night in particular, things were going to change...

Neon J and (Y/N) were snuggled up and sleeping together in their bedroom, as the night was in full swing. (Y/N) was sleeping peacefully as they were cozy under the blankets, but Neon J on the other hand started to stir a bit violently, having another nightmare of his time in the war. This time it was him witnessing the death of all his friends at the same time, from being shot to dying in an explosion, which brought back the trauma of those days. After seeing each of their deaths that played out one at a time, this nightmare began to show as the worst out of all the other nightmares Neon J had previously.

Neon J was then surrounded by all of the ghosts of his dead friends, each of them having their own wounds and cause of death showing. Each of the ghosts then proceeded to scream in agony at Neon J, their words terrifying the war veteran even more.
