Normally when someone runs away from their problems, they are not looking for new ones. That is usually the mindset. Never did Sabian think that accepting new friendships would do exactly that.

A/N: When I originally started this story, I was using a site that I thought was reflecting accurate dates till comparing with another, it was far from the truth. Instead of going back through and correcting all dates, I figured to just allow it to run its course and then slowly slid accurate dates in at correct time. From here on out I should be able to correct dates, so bear with me.

September 28th, 1991
Pantera had finally made it to Tushino Airfield, Moscow, Russia. Right from the start it was a crazy sight to see, already sea of people was showing up and were ready to rock. Promoters had allowed the show to be free and from the looks of it, all of Russia had taken the day off. This show was making history where in the U.S.S.R, the young challenged the old. Those who questioned authority triumphed. We were in the middle of a revolution. Just a month ago the Soviet Army went head-to-head with their people, buildings were destroyed, fires broke out and people had died fighting for what they believed in. They were done being pushed around. At the end, the Soviet Union became no more.
Looking around, faces of those who were enduring what their country had put them through was apparent but today that didn't matter, today we were here for another reason. Today everyone was brought together because of one thing, music.
Pantera was quickly escorted to a set of tents that were set up for the entertainers, separating them from the chaos that awaited them. Jeffery had showed up and reminded the guys that this event was filming but also to have them aware that what was left of authorities were here to keep people in line, so no openly doing drugs. That didn't stop us though from rolling a joint and smoking before their set. Darrell and I were sitting around as we ate lunch that was available to those who were on today's set list, trying our best to wrap our heads around in what was going on. We were told prior that hundreds would show up but just moments ago someone let everyone know that there were in fact millions. Millions of people were gathered to hear these bands perform, this show meant something to them.
Pantera was no longer touring with Annihilator which meant dealing with Jeff was no more, we were excited to start wrapping this chapter of our Europe tour and were ready to return back to the states. Jeffery today had made himself aware that he was going to stay close by, I tried to keep mine and Darrell's PDA way down because I didn't want to add another reason in why their tour manager didn't like me. Surprisingly he had not fired me months ago. I am sure he was hurting to do so.
I had swallowed my bite before taking a sip of my juice, "I am nervous. Won't lie," admitting my concern towards Darrell who was sitting next to me. I knew he had his own things running inside his mind right now, was hoping that maybe we could calm each other, this was huge for them. Darrell shot a raised eyebrow at me as he placed his drink back down, "What's going on in that head of yours?" he asked. Since we allowed ourselves to explore our sexual side with one another, it had allowed our relationship to open up and grow more, Darrell was someone I grew to rely on now. Maybe even love.
