The crowd jumped to the beat of the song, hyping Roxy up as she performed.

Dylan hung by Y/N closely. "Are you having fun?" He laughed over the crowd.

"Heck yeeeaaaah!!" Y/N screamed. She hadn't had this much fun in ages, she was always worrying about it Kaiden and having to deal with her father. This was a nice break.

Roxanne played the final notes of the music, jumping around the stage and high-giving desperate fans and waving as she was pulled back down under the stage.

Y/N hoped Monty would be up next. The crowd quieted down a bit, eager to see who was up next. A few minutes after Roxy went down, the sound of the stage lift rising started up again, followed by a guitar.

Guitar... Chica! The crowd cheered, jumping up and running towards the stage as the white-pink feathers rose from below. Chica didn't even have to look around to spot Y/N. Her eyes were already on her. Chica beamed, struggling to stifle waving so she wouldn't break her solo.

...

"Monty!!" Roxanne called, running over to him from the stage lift, "Y/N is here!!"

Monty shot up. "What?! She is!?" Swish swish swish swish.

"Yeah! I saw her! She must have come with some friends or something cause there was this guy hanging around her. Actually, I think it was Dylan. The Dylan that... uh... had the drama...

Monty's huge smiled faded. Dylan? She's here with Dylan? This is bad. He had to get her away from him.

He felt a low snarl escape his lips, causing Roxanne to take a cautious step back. "Woah, dude! Calm down, I'm sure he's gotten past all that. Don't get snappy!"

Roxanne threw her hands in the air, walking over to the group of staff who were waiting for her post-show check.

Monty could hear Chica's song begin to end. Guess she'd finally listened to the staff and didn't sing this time around.

The servos of the stage lift began to click and turn, preparing to come back down. Monty was up next, and he needed to see Y/N.

...

Chica jumped up and down, flashing peace signs at the crowd as she was pulled downwards, the screams slowly quieting as she did.

She made sure to give Y/N a direct wave before she was out of view. "You really are friends with all of them, aren't you?" Kiyomi chuckled.

Y/N smiled. There was barely enough time for a breather before the crowd began to go crazy, realising who was up next. The crowd was even louder than before. 'Montgomery!!'

A bass solo boomed through the building, flooding every restaurant and every arcade. Dylan nudged Y/N with his elbow, flashing her a wink. The stage lift slowly began to rise, plumes of fog sliding off the stage.

Y/N recognised the song... 'Welcome to the Jungle'. Y/N felt her heart begin to pound nod her face grow warm and the green and yellow alligator appeared, his eye taking only a few seconds before they met hers.

Almost immediately they softened as though relieved. Y/N smiled, waving. Monty smiled back.

Before she even realised, his eyes shifted to Dylan. Whatever was in them when he was looking at her disappeared, bursting into rage. His pupils dilated and his pink-red hues morphed into a menacing blood red. Y/N looked at the boy, who was stiff and pale with fear.
