-The title of this chapter is from Emily by My Chemical Romance-

*Emily's POV*

I slowly walked into the house with Gerard, hand in hand. Frank was already sitting on the couch waiting for me. When he noticed my presence he immediately got up to hug me. At that moment I let all the tears escape, it was almost as if the flood gate to my eyes had broken. Frank held me close to him as I cried on his shoulder, soaking his shirt with my tears.

"I can't believe I just did that." I whimpered out.

"I know sis...It was hard for me to leave too." Frank admitted.

Eventually I was able to slow my tears down. Frank slowly let go of me, as if he was afraid I'd break.

"What are we going to do? I can't just look the same as I do. If I go outside and someone sees me it'll be a dead giveaway that I'm still alive." I said.

"We can dye your hair. Maybe even get you some piercings. I'll take you to get some tattoos if you want. When you turn your eye color will change a bit. Then you'll look less recognizable." Frank said.

"Okay, we should probably get that done as soon as possible. Mom and dad may have a search party going right now." I said.

Frank nodded, taking my hand and leading me to a bathroom. He went through some cabinets, picking out different boxes of hair dye.

"Pick a color." Frank said holding out three different colors.

There was a bright firetruck red, bright blue, and a navy blue. I pointed to the navy blue one. Frank nodded and grabbed a bleaching kit from the cabinet to try and get some of the color out of my hair. He put the bleach in my hair and let it sit for about thirty minutes.

The red had faded to a light pink and the black faded to a grey. Frank put the navy dye all throughout my hair, making sure not to miss anything. We let that sit in my hair.

"Do you want any other piercings or anything? I have a piece of jewelry you can use for a lip ring or a septum." Frank held up a small piece of jewelry.

"Septum." I picked.

Frank nodded and went to find a needle. I took my nose ring out and set it on the counter. I didn't want that in anymore anyway. Eventually Frank had found a clean needle.

"Okay just hold your breath, I'll get it over with quickly." Frank instructed.

I did as told and closed my eyes. I felt a small pinch in my nose before I felt him putting the jewelry in my nose. It didn't hurt that bad surprisingly. Within a few seconds it was over and Frank was cleaning it.

Frank took a step back and looked at the piercing.

"It looks good on you actually." Frank said sounding surprised.

By now the hair dye was ready to be washed out. I rinsed the hair dye out of my hair in the sink, making dark blue water run down the drain. Frank helped me quickly dry my hair. I used my hairbrush that I had brought here and brushed my hair out.

I took a moment to look at myself in the mirror. I looked different, and I liked it. It all suited me well, and I was now ready to start my new life. Frank and I walked out of the bathroom to reveal my new look to the guys.

"Presenting...the new and improved Emily Iero!" Frank announced to everyone.

Everyone turned their heads to look at me. Everyone looked dumbfounded as they stared at me. Gerard's jaw was practically hitting the floor.

I cleared my throat to snap them out of their trance. All of them quickly looked away and regained their composure. Gerard stepped over to me and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"You look beautiful Sugar." Gerard complimented.

"Awww.." Ray awed at us.

"Shut it fro fro." Frank said playfully.

All of us laughed a little at the boys.

"I'm excited for you to join us Em." Mikey admitted.

"At least I'm being accepted." I sighed out.

"Well, are you ready to become one of us?" Gerard asked nervously.

I sighed heavily and looked at the ground. I looked up at Gerard, he was waiting for an answer.

Well, I guess it's time to say goodbye to my human life.

"Yes." I shortly answered.

I looked over at Frank, he looked so worried but he was trying to hide it. Gerard nodded slowly and took my hand, leading me out of the room. Gerard took me up a set of stairs, taking me to what looked to be my room. My guitars were on the walls, a few amps in the room. My clothes folded on a dresser, not put away yet. My CDs were on a shelf, along with a stereo.

Gerard sat me down on the bed in the room, holding both of my hands.

"Okay, let's get this over with I suppose." Gerard sighed.
