It was a late afternoon of 1992 when the sun was setting in New York city. People crowded into the big theater back in Manhattan. Some people were crazy, half drunk or high on drugs. It was the perfect place to gather round and get money. Going into the theater it was packed with hundreds and hundreds of people.
It was a whole rat house of people waiting for their favorite band to come on stage. That is Nirvana with Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl. There pushing through the crowds to get too the front was a dark black haired girl, her hair went down too her shoulders covering half of her face, and her eyes were dark brown.
She wore a black Nirvana crop top and dark blue jean shorts with a metal chain as the belt. She also had a small silver cross necklace. The girl was about the age of twenty five when she looked over the railings up too the stage. The lights flashed on for the stage, she saw the flag of the bands logo from behind the drumset.
Everyone behind her went crazy screaming out for the band. Some drinks were spilled everywhere on the ground and cigarettes filled the air. Finally the three musicians came up on stage. Kurt on lead, Krist on Bass, and Dave back on the drums. Everyone once again went wild in the audience.
Kurt broke aggressively playing the song "Aneurysm" as Dave Grohl went off on the drums beating them with his drum sticks. Krist played his bass low below his waist his knees rocking forward as his arms held the guitar low with the long strap around his shoulder.
The song was played loudly and could be heard all the way in the back. The speakers were so loud that it vibrated the floor and the audience. Kurt had his lead low strumming his guitar and his greasy blonde hair in his partially unshaven face.
He sang the sound loudly in the mic so he could be heard. Everyone jumped around in the audience, one fan jumps on stage to dance around like a crackhead. Then the fan runs and jumps back into the crowd as he was caught by the crowd.
Kurt screamed as he sang into the mic finger picking and strumming,
"BEAT ME OUTTA ME!--BEAT ME OUTTA ME! BEAT ME OUTTA ME!--BEAT ME OUTTA ME!"
The guitar roared and echoed throughout the whole building. He ran around stage playing his guitar crazily, but it was amazing too watch for the girl. She watched singing along loudly to match up with him. However, there was a random nirvana fan that was just as crazy as the audience, he came up and smacked the girl's ass.
The girl turned around pissed as the guy laughed at her. He acted as if everything was fine but, as the music played louder, the girl punched the guy square in the face. He fell back on the ground as everyone was still wild for the band playing. The guy nirvana fan was taken out of the theater as the black haired girl flipped her hair with a scoff.
Soon the song ended and Kurt spoke into the mic,
"Crazy bastards. This one is called Breed."
Soon the bass started out with Krist and then a riff from Kurt. Then finally Dave going off on the drums once again, his long hair swishing around. The sounds reverberated off the walls and at the concert, inside of the theater. Everyone rocked out too the tune as some sang along. Cobain sang into the mic.
The lights flashed on and off for the stage. Another fan jumped and danced around on stage as the band just continued playing like no problem. Soon the fan ran and leaped off stage although no one caught the person and the fan landed right on his face. Krist the bass guitarist made a face thinking, 'That's gotta hurt!'
The black haired girl rocked out listening too the song once more. She looked up to Kurt singing, that's when she noticed as he sang his eyes looked down too her from the stage for a split second, and then back to the crowd. Whatever it meant, it was interesting. Krist flipped his hair around as he continued on the bass.
Soon enough when Nirvana came too it's last song it played one in which was his least favorite song of all. He played it anyways because he knew it topped off the Billboard charts in 1991. He broke into the song "Smells Like Teen Spirit." Everyone once again had loved the song.
After the whole show the black haired girl hurried out just so no guys could try to get her possibly and try to take her home. She was aware that most guys there were drunk or high. She went to a back alley way where no one could find her. Just as she turns around she faces the same guy that got thrown out.
"Well hey there princess, what are you doin' out here?"
"Get the hell away from me!" she shoved him.
Suddenly the guy punches her back for revenge. Then lifted her off the ground and pins her too the wall chuckling. She kicked him several times with her knee hitting between his legs. He yowled in pain, until then he came back and punched her again angry, drunken with rage.
He hits her again with an empty glass bottle, she screamed in pain. Then someone punches the fan from behind twice. The guy turns around and Kurt stuck a heroin needle in the man's neck. The Nirvana fan fell on the ground and died, stabbed in the neck. Kurt looked over seeing the girl.
He got down, a cigarette hung from his bottom lip as he turned the girl over too see if she was okay. He recognized it was the girl he took a glimpse at, at his show. Krist and Dave walked up from behind him seeing what Kurt had done.
"Holy shit Kurt what the hell did you do?!" Dave said looking at the Heroin needle stabbed in the man's neck.
"He was about to kill this chick that's what." Kurt blew a drag of smoke from his lips.
"What are we suppose too do?" Krist asked.
"No one can know what happened here, we take her with us, otherwise she'll be fucked up when the police thinks that she killed that guy." Kurt said dryly.
"Dear lord..." Dave said facepalming.
Kurt lifted her up in his arms and waved towards the van. The Nirvana band places her in the back of the van. Dave drove at the front next too Krist. Kurt sat in the back with the girl's unconscious body. Soon they drove off into the night too their next tour else where.
He looked too the girl that was not awake, though she was still breathing, she had lots of scratches on her face. However, Kurt gently had his finger push away the hair from covering part of her face. His head tilted slightly getting a better look at her face. Then he looked back up and starred out the window.
The van had driven away from the concert theater...
