*A/N: Hey all Ruby here with our new story, Scarred Vision. We will be taking it in turns to do chapters. This is going to be a Bullet for my Valentine fanfic, other bands may well be mentioned somewhere in here too. We need to make it clear that this is purely for fun and for our own entertainment, but we hope you'll enjoy reading it too. Any real life relationships the people mentioned in it will not be taking place in the fic. We only own our O/Cs. There may be adult content and if there is it will be clearly marked so you can skip this. May contain alot of swearing and drinking too lol. Anyway enough with the boring introduction stuff. We hope you enjoy. Please just click the littel star and give us a vote and even a comment. I'm sorry this first chapter isn't brilliant, it just has some much needed info in it to get the story going. Love Ruby xx*
Scarred Vision
*Emz POV*
‘I seriously think I’m going to throw up again.’ Steph moaned as she leant forward in her seat to place her head in her hands, her long lilac hair covering her face
‘You’re not the only one. This is the most nervous I think I’ve ever been.’ I replied to her as I walked the length of the room for the hundredth time. The reason for being so nervous, well our band Scarred Vision, was about to play Download festival in England for the first time. We were really excited yet nervous at the same time. Sure we’ve played a lot of gigs, and been on a few small tours, but nothing truly compares to a festival. The headliners tonight were Slipknot and they were expecting crowds of about 90,000 people. We were playing fourth from headline, on just before Bullet For My Valentine.
It had taken us a good 4 years to get where we were now. Lots of blood sweat and tears had been shed in the process. Finally after the success of our first album we were billed on a festival. Our music was a dancy type Metal, we loved seeing the crowd get up, dance about and go outright crazy. The band is made up of 5 members, myself playing Bass, Steph on drums, Tony was our lead guitarist, Chris was the vocalist and rhythm guitar and Liam was on keyboard and also the band manager.
‘I honestly don’t get you girls sometimes. We’ve done plenty of shows in front of large crowds and now you’re nervous.’ Tony said as he warmed up on guitar by playing a few chords, tuning up as he went.
‘Come on, Chris you must be feeling it, being our front guy and that’ I looked over to Chris who was leaning back on a chair, a beer in hand. I rolled my eyes.
‘Sweetheart just breath. Enjoy it.’ He took a swig of his drink looking over to me. ‘I mean what are you both worrying about. We already know the guys out there love you both, you’re both hot as hell, so stop worrying.’
‘You’re such a pig. We aren’t worried about whether or not they fancy us, have you thought that maybe we are just worried about performing in front of such a large crowd and getting each song right.’ Steph responded as she stood up, brushing her lilac hair back out of her face. Her face looked pale, even with the small amount of make-up she was wearing. Her normally bright green eyes weren’t as glossy as they normally were.
‘You want to go get some air hun?’ I asked looking at her. She nodded.
‘You’ve got 15 minutes then you need to be stage side.’ Liam warned us. We both saluted before heading out of the door.
‘How many years have we dreamed of this?’ Steph asked as we took a slow walk away from the cabin we were currently in.
‘Since you first moved down from Scotland, what 5 years ago. Weren’t we actually in the audience watching Slipknot on the main stage saying that we would be there someday. I mean sure we’re not headline, but to be playing on the same day as them, that’s pretty amazing.’ We looked at each other before high fiving and laughing. ‘Speaking of which’ I elbowed her as I spotted Corey Taylor being interviewed on one of the sofas.
