Another concert, another show over and over again always the same. I love the band, glad I joined, but when is something going to change? I mean life is not supposed to be repetitive. I sigh as I enter the hotel room the rest of the band is already in.
"Hey you came back to us",Gabriel exclaimed.
"Of course she did, she always does", Michael responds.
"We need to get back on topic guys", Castiel groans.
"Oh alright we can work now", Samandriel mopes.
"So what have we got on the idea table", I question?
They present me with the ideas they had come up with while I was out walking. I look through each one slowly before deciding on one. The other four look at my chosen idea and nod to show their agreement. The idea was to hold a contest, where each contestant would submit a video of them playing or singing a cover or their own original work. After that we would all pick one winner each to come meet us in The City of Angels.
With all that worked out we posted the details of the contest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I screeched at the very top of my immense vocal range. The noise alerting my brothers, who both had drawn their guns scanning for threats. I roll my eyes and show them the post I had been looking at. They lower their weapons visibly relaxed and read the post.
"You all want to enter together", Sam inquires.
"Sure sounds good", I reply, while Dean nods in agreement. I quickly fill out the information needed to enter the contest and submit the document.
Sam leaves the room to grab his guitar mumbling about practice. Dean goes to get his drum machine, while I put on my headset and pick up my electronic keyboard.
Once we are all ready and tuned, practice begins. Our chosen song is Carry on my Wayward Son by Kansas.
~~~~~
After 4 days 17 hours 58 minuets and 36 seconds our video was ready to be submitted.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The entries are really starting to pile up now. The videos are made by soloists, duos, trios, and more. It won't be a simple decision on who should win, that's for sure.
~~~~
Alright time to pick the winners. Michael clicks the first video and it begins. Several videos later four of five winning acts were selected. Michael chose a kid on cello named Kevin Tran. Gabriel's choice was a girl named Charlie who sang. Castiel picked a duo, the two were named Jo and Ash. Samandriel selected a pianist named Garth. Now it's my turn, but I haven't found the act I feel should win. I scrolled through some more of the videos when one caught my eye.
"Oh my god I know those three", I screamed. I clicked the video and watched, listening with rapt attention. It was unbelievable, I didn't think that I would find an act I felt should win, but it was found.
"We have all five winning acts", I called out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We won the contest. I think I'm going to faint. We are going to California. OMG, We are going to meet Heaven's Light. I'm gonna freaking flip my shit. I mean how often do you get to meet your absolute favorite band in the whole freaking world. I got to tell Luci about this.
~~~~~~~~~~
Adam-we won a contest and are going to meet Heaven's Light
Luci-awesome news
Adam-yeah, wish you could come
Luci-don't worry about me, just enjoy yourself little bro
Adam-alright got to go pack ttyl
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I grin at the texts from my youngest brother. He is super excited, it's kinda hilarious actually. I can't wait until they get here. Everyone should be landing by tomorrow or the next day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are finally here. I am freaking out right now. The city is so vibrant. The hotel we're staying in is super clean. Later today is the meet and greet with the band.
~~~~~~~~
The studio we are taken to is spacious and looks really nice. I'm so caught up in the background that I don't notice when I crash into someone.
"Sorry wasn't watching where I was going" I quickly apologize. The person says that it wasn't a big deal. I turn to help them up and almost stop breathing. It's Samandriel, and he's even more attractive in person. After he goes and sits down, I quickly locate my seat and breathe.
All of us are welcomed by Michael as the rest of the band fills in. My breathing almost stops for the second time because there with the rest of my favorite band was Lucifer.
I don't completely register the conversation after that realization. It seems like that one winner, uh Charlie is guessing who selected each of us. My head snaps when I hear that the three of us were chosen by Luci.
I wonder what tomorrow will bring for all of us.
