As Brittney, Zacky, and Sean entered the courthouse for the trial of the man who had butchered her friends and almost killed her, her brother, and her fiancé, they walked through the doors to the courtroom where the proceeding was taking place. She sat down next to her brother and her fiancé.

Brittney hoped to God this guy would face the death penalty for murdering her friends and for kidnapping them. As the police brought the maniac into the courtroom, she grew nervous. Sean, her brother, noticed and grabbed her hand. She looked up at him, and he smiled.

"Everything is ok babe!" Sean whispered. "I promise he won't hurt you now!"

Throughout the whole trial, Brittney was incredibly nervous because the man who killed her friends and almost killed her, her brother, and her fiancé was literally in the same courthouse as her. It turned out the lunatic and his family were sentenced to life in prison.

Two months later....

It had been two months since the events, and everything was slowly attempting to go back to normal, but Brittney remained anxious and paranoid. She was so traumatized that everything scared her. For instance, when she went out by herself, she became overwhelmed with anxiety.

She was currently in her dressing room, getting ready for a concert that was raising money for M, Syn, Arin, Olivia, and Jonny. She really didn't want to go on stage, but she knew she needed to do this for her friends. After she was done getting ready to perform, she walked toward the stage, grabbed her microphone, and looked at Sean with a frown.

"You ok babe?" Sean asked her.

"I don't think I can do this!"
Brittney replied. "Especially after what happened!"

"Babe, you got this!" Sean replied. "I have faith in you!" He smiled and gave her a kiss on the lips.

She smiled and kissed him back. "I love you!" She looked at the stage; there was a full crowd of her fans. "Where's Zacky?"

"He went to get food!" Sean replied. "He will be back soon!"

"Okay!" Brittney replied. "Okay, I'm ready for this!" She grinned.

"You got this, babe!" Sean replied. "Don't worry about anything!"

Brittney nodded and walked out on stage. The lights dimmed, and her band started playing her new song, "Darkness." She began singing the lyrics as the lights started showing different colors. Walking around and singing, she looked into the crowd and thought she saw the guy who almost killed her. She stopped singing and froze in fear. Her band stopped playing their instruments and stared at her. She dropped the mic and ran off the stage in terror. With tears rolling down her eyes, she ran into her dressing room and locked herself in there.

Falling to her knees, she was crying her eyes out as she struggled through a panic attack. She just couldn't breathe. All she could think about was the horrifying things that had happened to her, Sean, and her brother.

Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door. "Babe, open the door please?" Sean pleaded as he knocked.

She ignored him, looking over at the door and just staring. I can't do this anymore, I just can't. I'm too messed up and too broken, she thought. She got up, went over toward the bathroom, and opened the door. She busted the mirror with her fist and just cried.

Looking down at her hand, she saw blood all over it; she was cut badly, especially around her wrist. Suddenly, she fainted, losing a lot of blood due to having cut an artery.
