katana looked back at the mirror for her outfit— which was pretty simple. it consisted of a v neck tied at the bottom, high-waist jeans and a nike roshe run with her hair on a ponytail.

"hey kat, you ready?" cali poked her head from katana's door. katana went over to caliber's and trigger's house to apologize and caliber didn't hesitate to forgive her bestfriend. although, bullet and katana are still glaring at eachother.

"yeah, hold on. let me get my bag." before she could grab her bag, caliber stopped her, "no need. i'm bringing a backpack." katana nodded and spilled the items she was supposed to bring with her. caliber handed her the bag as katana returned the items she didn't really need back into her bag.

"okay, ready?" katana nodded and grinned at caliber. believe it or not, it's katana's first concert. well, her first concert was a teletubbies and barney but it is an understatement.

they soon reached the venue, going past the guards and to their assigned seats. after an hour or two, all the lights were shut off, the fans' scream echoing throughout the open stadium. "are you ready, los angeles?!" a pitchy voice screamed, making the people— fans —around then scream louder. a note started to play as the screams got louder and louder.

katana looked over at her side to see cali completely caught up in screaming and fawning over them, making cali roll her eyes.

for the whole show, katana was just standing there, trying to blend in with the crowd as she got a few side comments like, "is she even a fan?" or "why's she just standing there?"

"i hope everyone's having a good time!" the crazy-colored hair guy— michael —smiled, "now, we're gonna do the usual. pick a fan who knows how to play one of our songs." blonde guy– luke —said. the screams got louder and they brought up their signs as katana observed.

"hey kat, you know how to play safety pin, right?" katana nodded and as soon as she did thay, cali put up a sign saying, "my bestfriend knows how to play!" with an arrow pointing directly at her. katana nonchalantly face palm myself at the sign she made.

"how about that girl whose sign is pointing at her," luke trailed off, "the one that says, my bestfriend knows how to play!" he grinned at the girls. cali started jumping, obviously more excited than katana. a guard guided her towards the side of the stage, waiting for her queue. "come on in, young lady!" katana breathed. once she got out, she locked eyes with their curly-haired drummer— ashton.

she looked away in a second, walking towards luke. "hi! what's your name?" he placed a microphone infront of her, "katana." luke, calum, michael and ashton's eyes widened at the name. it's quite a rare, rather, unique in los angeles to be named after a japanese samurai sword. the boys quickly recovered, though.

"anyway, katana, what song do you know how to play?" michael smirked, looking back at ashton who was still staring at the oblivious girl.

katana thought for a moment before remembering what cali had said, play safety pin, "safety pin." katana bit her lip nervously.

"since we never played that before, alright!" ashton mumbled to the mic, the boys nodding in agreement. michael handed her his guitar, which she thankfully took. her eyes wandered through the crowd, in search for cali. she found her, squished to the front. apparently, she managed to push past people to support her bestfriend.

katana breathed once again and placed her fingers on a cord, smoothly strumming the strings— which were followed by the drums and the bass. she noticed the tune started changing; soon realizing they've skipped to the chorus, which katana gratefully remembers. she strummed, smiling. she looked back to see the boys smiling at her. the music faded and so did her strumming.

"wow! what other songs do you know how to play?" ashton asked, katana thought deeply as flashbacks went through her mind. "castaway." they nodded. she skipped to the chorus, strumming once again. they finally finished, michael taking the guitar back as luke and calum approached her.

luke was about to say something but calum beat him to it, earning a glare from luke which calum smirked at, "what's your full name?" katana's eyes widened but answered anyway, "katana rose melcha." ashton grinned, luke looking back at him. "backstage." he mouthed at luke, "thank you, katana!" calum grinned, "katana melcha everyone!" she earned screams from everyone as she waved goodbye and hugged the boys, waving at ashton.

before she could get back out, she was stopped by a guard, "you'll have to stay at the backstage." katana was surprised, very. she was cut off before she could even talk, "your friend is already there." she bit her lip, nodding. she was guided to the green room, staff greeting her which she returned with a smile.

"katana, do you think ashtonafiii is ashton irwin?" cali asked.

she was cut off again, "you're right." both girls stood up from the sofa, eyes widening.
