Welcome to the Black Parade

This is How I Disappear

They made their way down the road, as far as they could. Until, they started to cut through the woods to avoid being seen. The dim sun began to set and a few minutes had passed, and they started to feel weary. They figured that they ought to rest a while before continuing on. So, they settled in the woods, far enough to not be seen, but close enought to have an easy escape. They set a spot on the ground and started a fire.  

"I can't believe we did this," Mikey said enthusiastically, "I didn't think we'd be able to pull it off!" 

"We've been dreaming about this since forever!" Gerard smiled.

"It''s fucking crazy," Frank giggled. 

"I can't believe we actually had the guts to do this!" Ray smiled. 

"Well," Gerard started, "We probably would've never had the balls to get out of there without Diamond, of course." 

"Thank You," Diamond smiled, "I just wanna go home, y'know?"

"Yeah, we all understand," Frank smiled.

Later, they all did their best to fall asleep on the dark, forest floor. Little did they know, someone was watching them behind the tall groups of trees. Hours passed and they were still asleep. When they woke up, they were tied to a lage tree trunk. They were all blindfolded, everyone except Diamond. She could see that there was a group of women around them. There were four of them. They all had dark hair. One of them was fairly tall, and slender, her hair was tied into two pigtails. She had pale skin, and big brown eyes. Her lips were bright red, and she wore a red and black plaid skirt that fell a few inches above her knees. She wore a black tank-top under her bright red vest with studs and patches on right side. She wore black, fingerless gloves on both hands, and a spiked cuff on her right. On her feet she wore nude leggings, black, knee-high socks, and big combat boots. Around her neck, she wore a black bandana that covered some of her chest. She also had a sleeve of colorful tattoos on her left arm.

The next woman also had black hair, but she wore her's down. Her skin was light, but not as light as the first woman. She was quite tall, and had the same body typ as the first woman. She wore dark make-up on her eyes, and nude lips. She wore a plain, black tank-top and over that, she wore a short, black dress with thin, white, vertical stripes that ran down throughout her dress. Her dress was zipped up almost all the way, revealing some of her chest which had a tattoo, but Diamond couldn't make out what it said. Her arms also had tattoos, most of them were colored. She had a nose peircing like Frank's except, her's was on the left side of her nose. She wore black and white striped leggings as well as black combat boots that went more than halfway up her shin. 

The third woman, however, was a tiny bit shorter, and had short hair. Her body was the same body type as the other girls, and she wore dark clothes like the others. She wore a black t-shirt and blue jeans that were dirty from the dirt on the floor. She wore an oversized sweater that was not zipped up at all, exposing the belt she wore in the belt loops on her jeans. She wore standard white converse that were also dirty from the forest floor. She too had big brown eyes that glittered under the sun. Her bangs covered most of her forehead, leaving a small strip of skin that remained visable. Her brown hair was shiny and fell just above her shoulders never touching them at all. Her hair flicked outwards at the ends. Her bangs were swept to the side never covering her both of her eyes. 

The last woman was of average height. She had brown hair that fell below her shoulders in the front, but was cut short at the back with peices of lighter brown hair peepin through. She had an average body type. She wore a black tanktop under her black sweater and she wore basic blue jeans that flared a bit at the ends. She wore black sneakers that had asymmetrical white lines on each side of it. She had the same big-brown eyes that sparkled in the sunllight that peeped through the forest trees. She was propped up against a tree with her arms crossed. All the women were beautiful. 

"She's awake Lyn-Z" one woman said, as the woman she reffered to smiled.

"Finally, we've been waiting for hours," another lady said.

"Go undo their blindfolds, Jamia," Lyn-Z said, gesturing at the woman with the short hair.

"Will do," Jamia smiled. 

"What should I do?" The third woman said.

"Go take the ductape off their mouths, Alicia," Lyn-Z ordered.

"And Christa," Lyn-Z started as she made eye-contact with the last woman, "You go check on the boys to make sure they don't do anything funny."

So, just like that, all of the bandmembers were wide awake and just as confused as Diamond was. 

"So, what are you Paraders doing in this part of the forest?" Alicia smirked, 'Trying to steal the last of us for your sick little games?" 

"Hell no," Frank answered, "We were just running away from the Parade."

"Yeah," Mikey started, "We knew that there was a path that would take us back to civilization."

"And trust us," Ray smirked, "We wouldn't do any of Mother War's bidding."

"Plus," Gerard added, "We need to bring her back to the divide."

The women paused, and averted their eyes towards Diamond. 

"So," Lyn-Z started, "You aren't a parader?" 

"N-No," Diamond answered, "I just wanna go home. I don't want to die just yet."

"Oh.." LynZ said, "I see."

"If you wanna join us," Gerard smiled, "You're welcome to."
