What happens when Nikki Sixx falls for his biggest competition?
The year is 1995, the 80s glam rock has been dead and gone, and grunge and alternative music are on top now. This brings Teagan Foxx and her band to the top, leaving bands like Mötley...

Nikki POV
Vince had just joined the band again, so there was still a slight amount of tension between us. It was like rubbing styrofoam together over and over again. I hated to admit that too because I knew we'd never be the same band we were all those years ago. We had all been through too much and fought too much to be the same people. But when we were on stage it was almost like nothing had changed, we still had that same chemistry we had on the Sunset Strip in the 80s.
I had stayed up so many nights worrying about this damn band that there was a moment there I thought I was actually going to go crazy. My marriage with Brandi was falling apart at the seams and I had gotten to the point where I did not even want to fix it. I was still freshly sober and she was snorting enough coke to kill an elephant and she knew how I was struggling with everything, but she is so selfish she just doesn't seem to care. She made me dread coming home to my home every night. There were so many times I would stay so late at the studio doing anything I could to avoid coming home. I missed my kids but she made it so hard to be around them.
And now the fact that we were gearing up for tour made it easier for me to have an excuse to stay away from that hell. I had slowly been working on new songs for the first album that we would drop with the original band back together. I hated the fact that the times were changing the way they were and I couldn't keep my band up to date with them. That will really add years to how old you feel. Seeing the Red Stilettos rehearing their songs and watching them grow more fame over the course of a few weeks was kind of disheartening because they were new to the music scene and they were quickly gaining more popularity than we were. If I was young and there was a band full of hot chicks, I'd listen to them too. So I can't really be too mad at them.
Me and Tommy were at the studio late just messing around with beats and lyrics trying to get creative juices flowing. We had heard girly giggles coming from down the hall which made us feel the need to go investigate, and possibly get killed but who cares? I had said something to Tommy about how they could be murderers who are trying to lure us to them.
"So what? It is Halloween time, it's very festive of us to be possibly walking to our deaths right now." Tommy said to me taking larger steps to get in front of me. I rolled my eyes and just walked behind him. At least he would be the first one to walk in and if he got killed I had time to run. We approached the door and Tommy poked his head and a gasp left his mouth, dramatically of course.
"Oh my god Tommy you scared us you bitch!" I heard a familiar voice shriek. I popped my head from behind them to see the girls sitting around each other with papers scattered and Stella had her acoustic guitar settled in her lap. Tommy let out a loud laugh and we walked in fully and my eyes met with Teagan, whose cheeks were heating up with the contact we had made.
