Amazingly, you didn't have to wait for three months like the last time. :P Anyway, I'd like to send out a big thank you to the folks out there who have helped me along in my little endeavor. First off, thanks to Mystery for being my pretty little editor and one hell of a kick ass chica! Second, thanks to my Vicious Sex Kitten Gabriella (MSR), Kat (How Can You Love Me) and MJ (Shape of My Heart) for giving me all the encouragement that I could ever need. And finally, thanks to Neto and Priscilla for kicking me in the ass and getting me to type faster! :) While you're here, check out some of my favorite stories: MSR-Gabriella How can you love me, Eternally Yours, etc.-Kat Shape of my heart-MJ Kevin and Justin-Peter Kamphuis Brian and Me-DLS Search and Rescue-MH *And anything else that I'm too damn brain dead to remember!* --My stories are hosted on Kat's Slash Fiction site at www.angelfire.com/boybands/KathFiction/Main.html along with some other kick ass authors. --Or you can visit my own newly made site at www.angelfire.com/boybands/druid555/index.html where I will also be hosting other writers in the near future along with my own work. Disclaimer: Yes! I DO own them! I use them around the house for decoration, menial chores and manual labor (except for Lance who is chained to Gabriella's bed, Chris who is filling in for Kat's foot stool, and Kevin who is Neto's new house boy)! If you want to know their actual sexualities...GET OVER IT! It's none of our damn business! Do not read this if: 1) You are too young to be doing so. 2) It is illegal to read this type of material in your area. 3) You are offended by homosexual material and/or situations. If none of the above applies to you, continue reading and enjoy the show! D-Evolution Chapter 15: **Seeing Pink** As a unit we all swung our heads around toward the snarling voice and were quickly pushed aside by a seething pink-headed vessel of pure whoop ass. Stopping in front of Danielle, she fixed her with a baleful glare. "I told you bitch, take your hands off my boy!" growled the enraged singer. Glancing momentarily at the young woman with naked contempt, Dani ignored her and turned back to what she was doing. Chris tightly closed his eyes as she again raised her hand to strike. However, before the blow could be dealt, he heard an ear-piercing yell followed by the sound of flesh meeting the concrete floor. Gathering up what little self-control he had left, he forced himself to open his eyes and was horrified by what he saw. In the middle of the floor, Danielle was on her back with Pink straddling her. The singer was pounding away at her target's body with a horrible ferocity. AJ, after getting himself together, pulled Chris away from the two women into a tight embrace. The shorter man tried to burrow his body into his boyfriend's chest in an attempt to get away from the violence. Alex whispered soothing words into his ear while stroking his hair in an effort to comfort his trembling and whimpering lover. "Make them stop, AJ. Please make them stop," Chris whispered almost too softly to hear. As the fighting escalated, his whimpers turned into sobs that wracked his entire body. Unwilling to leave his hysterical lover, Alex turned his gaze to us in silent askance. Getting the message, Howie and I both rushed forward and pulled the two women apart. Pink's lip had been split and it bled as she strained against my grasp in an attempt to continue the beating. Danielle was kicking and screaming in Howie's arms. Her face was bloodied and her right eye was already a very noticeable purple. As she was fighting to break loose, Danielle kept screaming, "Fucking let me go you bastard!" but there was no way she was getting out of this until Howie let her go. Pink had already stopped struggling, but was still looking at the other woman with murder in her eyes. Not seeing a way to solve this problem on our own, I yelled into the hall for the bodyguards. Within a minute, the room was filled with a bunch of really confused muscle-bound men. Quickly being given the short version of what had happened, they took Danielle bodily from the room STILL kicking and screaming. I was amazed that the psychotic bitch hadn't gone hoarse yet. When Pink's security got there, they took one look at her and demanded that she go see the venue's on-call medic. She, of course, had to be stubborn about it. "I don't need to see no fucking doctor!" she snarled at the men. Seeing the determined look on her face, her bodyguards looked to me for help. Sighing to myself, I turned her around so that I was looking her in the eye. "Alecia," she bristled at the use of her name, "your lip looks bad and I think that it's gonna need some stitches." When she opened her mouth to protest, blood began to trickle from the wound again. "Look, you're bleeding all over the place so you're going to get it looked at!" I ordered in the sternest voice that I have. Because of the tone, she blinked at me owlishly for a moment before reluctantly nodding her head in agreement. She still didn't look too pleased by the idea and that was evidenced when she stuck her finger in my chest and backed me into a wall. "Fine! I'll go! But you have to do something for me now. First, I want you to make sure that Chris is taken care of and then I want you to go make sure that that fucking skank gets what's coming to her! Do ya get me?!" Her gaze never wavered once as she told me this and I simply nodded my head to tell her that I understood. Smiling in satisfaction, She went over to run her hand soothingly down Chris' back before placing a gentle kiss on top of his head and allowing herself to be lead out of the room. Now that Pink was gone, I was able to turn my attention to the pair still clutching each other on the room's only sofa. It broke my heart to see the terribly haunted look in Chris' eyes and hear his broken sobbing. I had seen this type of reaction in a female friend of mine who had been the victim of abuse. Unfortunately, the fear and self-loathing left behind by her abuser had eventually led her to take her own life. As I felt my heart grow cold at the thought of Chris doing the same, the room was suddenly filled with the rest of the guys. Seeing the state of their band mate and friend, the guys started firing questions at AJ, Howie and me until they managed to get the whole story from us. The guys from NSync were sickened to find out that Dani, a person whom they had considered a close friend for years, could do such an atrocious thing to the man she supposedly loved. I could see that they were all probably blaming themselves for not seeing it sooner, and I hoped that they would eventually see that this situation wasn't anyone's fault but Dani's. As she came into my thoughts again, I asked Howie and AJ if they had the situation with Chris in hand for now. When they both nodded their heads, I quickly ran from the room in search of one of the bodyguards. Seeing one that I thought I recognized, I called out to him and he turned. Quickly, I caught up to him and grabbed him by the arm. "Lonnie, right?" when he nodded I continued, "I need to make sure that Dani has been taken care of." At the mention of her name, the usually sweet looking man's face darkened frighteningly. Growling, he said, "Don't worry about the little whore. The higher ups are with her right now and I can tell you one thing. They are very protective of their artists and she's gonna be lucky to get out of there in one piece!" I pat his back in a conciliatory way before giving him my thanks. Telling him that I was going to check on Chris, he agreed before turning to finish the exit preparation. Retracing my path towards Chris' dressing room, I wasn't surprised to see the forlorn looks on everyone's faces when I returned. The phrase 'abuse hurts everyone' is not empty and the scene here bore evidence to that fact. "How's he doing, Alex?" I quietly asked. AJ looked up at me with a heart-wrenching look in his eyes before responding. "There are too many people in here. I know that everyone is worried and upset, but they're scaring Chris. I think he's still in shock and isn't registering anyone but me as safe." When the others heard this, they all quickly stood looking very disturbed by AJ's words and intimated that they understood before leaving. "See if you can bring him out of it before we head out to the bus, Alex. I really don't think he could handle that crowded a space in his present condition." Looking down at his shivering angel, he nodded before whispering, "I will." Seeing that I wasn't needed anymore and was probably making Chris uncomfortable, I walked out the door and joined the rest of the guys in the hall. "Nick, do you know where Richie is?" The blonde turned to me and replied, "He's in Howie's dressing room right now asleep. I left one of the security with him just in case." "Thanks Nick." And then I tapped Kevin's shoulder. "Yeah, Doug? What is it?" he asked me quietly. I waited a moment before venturing forth with, "I really think that your management should bring in a psychologist for Chris and the rest of you. He has all of the symptoms of an abuse victim. One of my friend's killed herself five years ago as a result of repeated abuse and I don't want the same thing to happen to Chris." When the guys processed what I said, they all fell over themselves in agreeing that a psychologist was what was needed. Even going as far as to say that they would pay for it out of their own pockets if necessary. All that was on their minds at that moment was helping the shattered man that now lived in their friend's body. God, everything was just so fucked up. Tbc... Well guys, I hope you liked it! Right now, I'm hoping to have chapter 16 out in about 2 weeks, so look for it then. Thanks again for taking the time to read the story and I hope you'll come back for more! :) Questions/Comments: E-mail me at ardcypher5@hotmail.com Catch ya later, Druid
