Start of a fic? Read please :D [a7x is in there somewhere]

She looked down on the almost lifeless man that was lying on the floor. Some smoke came out of the gun she had in her hand. His body were shaking, his life was hanging in a small tread between life and death.

 

“Why?” His voice was weak. Blood was starting to stream out of his chest and it quickly became more and more. “Why me?”

 

“Why you?” She looked down at him, as if he was an insect. Her eyes were looking straight in his. The poor guy weren’t more than 21 years old. “Couse I got my orders to kill you”

 

He looked up at her with confusion. After his father had died he’d become the owner of some of the biggest in the finance marked in London. His breath became weaker and he felt the taste of blood in his mouth. The room became darker and darker, and soon there was only a lifeless body lying there.

 

She got down on her knees and closed his eyes with her fingers. She’d once been a normal girl. A normal girl with lots of friends, but everything changed after she’d finished her graduation. Now she was one of the best agents in the European mafia.

 

She quickly got her gun and hided it in her bag. She took a last look at the boy and went out of the big and modern apartment he used to live in. Of course she’d moved all kinds of marks that would lead the investigation of the murder to her, she wasn’t that stupid.

 

A black car slowly drove in the gate to a small apartment in the central London. She walked up to the door and turned the keys in the lock. The apartment wasn’t big, but not small either; a small living room, a bedroom, a small kitchen and a bathroom, just enough for her.

 

She turned on a small light so she could see something. The sun had gone down hours ago, and she could barely see the moon behind some clouds at the sky. A black and white cat came slowly out of the living room. You wouldn’t believe a person like her would have any love for pet’s but she did have a cat that she’d found on the street some weeks ago.

 

She went over to the bedroom window and closed it. Though it was almost summer outside, it was cold in the night. She hadn’t prepared for any mission this night, but her sources had told her that the guy would leave the country the next day, and by then it would be too late.

 

She felt tiredness in her body and went over to the bed and sat down. She didn’t bother change clothes, she’d change them in the morning. Soon, her eyes went heavy and she lied down with her head on the pillow. Soon she was sleeping, dreaming of a normal life.

 

 

A irritating sound came out of a small speaker on the top of a clock that was standing on the small table by her bed. She opened her eyes and looked at it. It was 9:30 and she had to get ready for the part time job she had at the small café ten minutes from her apartment.

 

She hit the button and the awful voice went off. Her body wanted to sleep some longer but she managed to force it out of the bed. The warm water from the shower streamed down her back. It felt refreshing to her pale skin. She turned of the water and got one of the towels around her.

 

She loved that sound, the sound of a car engine starting. She slowly drove out of the gate and out to a small, old, road. After a good 30 minutes she finally came out on the busy highway into London. She knew that the gun she’d used the night before was lying underneath the passenger seat. 

 

The café was small and unknown. That’s why it was so wonderful to work there, couse there would never be any stressing days, though she didn’t really earn that much money. Some old people would sit and eat lunch, maybe some totally random people would come for a cup of coffee.

 

The bell over the door made a small sound. She quickly looked up from the newspaper, out of curiosity, only human. A group of young men had just gone trough the door, and sat down by a table, centered in the middle of the café. They were all dark clothed and didn’t look like they gave a damn about it.

 

“Do you want to order something?” She stood next to the table with the guys that’d just gone inside. An embarrassing silence gathered around them.

 

“I want coffee” one of them eventually said. “Haha, fuck Gates, you’re gonna have coffee?” the long one of them said. “Fuck you, you have anything against that?” the guy named Gates said back to the tall person.

 

“Ooook, so 1 coffee. Anything else?” She asked and looked at them. “I guess we’ll all take coffee” the tall one said eventually. “Fuck Rev, and you were whining about me ordering coffee?” Gates literally spat in the tall’s face.

 

Great.

 


 

I started this AGES ago, and Idk, maybe I'll continue it?
What do yuo think?

There is a funny thing called love..

The bus moves up the street. He's sitting in the back, resting his head against the glass. He is tired. The bus stops. A car tries to pass by. A girl is looking up at him. Their eyes crash, the world stops. Everything stops for a second or two, but then it's all back to normal, the bus moves on, the car the other way.

There's a funny thing called love at first sight.

 

If time can break us down
And not keep us around
I wont wait
I wont mind
Not this time
I've started up the clocks
It's time I left behind
And everything we've lost, disappears
I'm calling, I'm calling out
For answers on the long walk home
I've started up the race
It's something I cant change
I'm calling, I'm calling out
For answers on the long walk hole
And now we're not the same
I'm running past the words
To finish up the faults
Cant come back
I wont wait
Wont live like that
I've started up the clocks
It's time I left behind
And everything we've lost, disappears
I'm calling, I'm calling out
For answers on the long walk home
I've started up the race
It's something I cant change
I'm calling, I'm calling out
For answers on the long walk home
And now we're not the same
I'll find myself once more again
I've started up the race
I'll find myself once more again
It's something I cant change
And now we're not the same
I cant help by myself again

Comments, comments and comments :D

So, like I’ve mentioned earlier, I’ve been gathering a lot of wierd comments about me. It’s not that many, but I’ll take that as something positive XD

Matthijs:
- Moo, Baah
Comment: Um, yeah.. When he was here in Norway, under the Hove Festival, all we said to eachother was “moo” and “bah”. And ppl would look weird at us cause of that. It was the only way to communicate with him.

- Makes me hug everyone
Comment: Haha, I told him that it was a Norwegian tradition to hug everyone you saw. It’s not, just to get that straight, it was just so fun to make him hug everyone XD

Tonje:
- Have a mouse in the fish tank
Comment: It’s my pet mouse :O It’s a Japanese mouse that I’ve had for about 3 years. It lives in my old fishtank now, cause Frankie has the other cage.

- Can go to a concert with a band you don’t like
Maan, I love concerts. I’ve been to a total of 40 this year already. And I know she refers to the Iron Maiden concert, cause I don’t like Iron Maiden :] I was there to watch Avenged sevenfold, that’s it. But hey, they had an amazing show!

Comment: Hehehehehe >:D

Comment: Well, I can’t deny it, I got atleast one friend on each continent. But hey, I love making new friends, and I hope that you like to be friends to me too :)

Annette:
- Ogaboga Frankie

Vacation in Denmark

I am currently sitting in a hotel room in Taastrup, somewhere between Roskilde and Copenhagen. It's really boring here, cause there's nothing to do.

If someone has a good idea for something to do, please tell me :O I'm about to die of boredness..

And we've driven about 10 hours to get here, so I'm really tired too, but it's way too hot outside to fall asleep X_X

Tomorrow we're going to Copenhagen, to "Strøket" or something like that Oo I hope there's lot of musicstores there.. If someone is in Copenhagen tomorrow or wednesday, I'd love to meet you :D

I met Avenged Sevenfold II

This has been a quite unique week, I’ve been to a total of 11 concerts.

But hey, I promised ppl to write about the time I had in Oslo, seeing Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold and Lauren Harris.

So, me and Annette took the train from Arendal to Oslo, which is about 4 and an half hour long drive.

We arrived in Oslo at 2pm. There we met Ylva, and we took the bus to her place, where we were gonna sleep over. After a while we went out to get something to eat and later her dad drove us to Valle Hovin. Me and Annette had ordinary tickets, but her dad got us VIP braclets, which was pretty cool! :D

Around 5 we got inside the stadium, and we found a good spot to watch the show at the VIP area. The thing about VIP braclets was that you had a own place to sit and watch the concerts, and toilets, bars and food that you didn’t have to wait 1 hour to get help. We were suppose to be able to go out and in from the pit’s to the VIP area, but later they wouldn’t let anyone in again.

Lauren Harris started around 7. From my POV she was pretty boring. Ppl seemed to love her though, just not me :]

After Lauren Harris had played we went out of the VIP area so we could watch Avenged Sevenfold from the inner circle, but when we was about to enter, they wouldn’t let us in, even though we had VIP bracelets, and while they refused us to enter they let other ppl enter. So we had to watch the concert from far behind.

But hey, the positive is that you’ll be able to see more, not just watch yourself so you don’t fall and stuff. Anyway, I can hardly remember the songs they played though. I remember Critical Acclaim, Almost Easy, Unholy Confessions, Beast And The Harlot, Bat Country and Gunslinger, but not any of the other ones.

When they were finished (and they were awesome!) we went to the merchandise place and bought t-shirts. I bought a black one with the skulls from.. I don’t remember from where, and the whole European tour (a7x that is) on the back. What was amazing was that my hometown, Arendal was the first show at that tour! :O Annette bought a green and black one, and a white with the tour on it’s back and Ylva bought the same as I.

After that we went back to the VIP entrence, but we had said yes to not be able to get inside again to the guard there, but she was like “Do you regret it?” and we were nodding, looking sad I guess :] and she let us inside again.

We watched half of the Iron Maiden show from the VIP area, watching the big screens on the side of the stage. It was an awesome concert, and that comes from someone that don’t even like ‘em.

The singer called us Vikings XD And he jumped around a lot, and he talked about a guy in a crane, and an albatross too. And that most of the fans watching them that day weren’t even born when they started. About that guy in a crane, there was a building place right to the right of the stage, and there was a guy up in the crane to watch Iron Maiden play, and I guess the band noticed, so the singer said “Aww, look at him, he’s happy. Just look at him!”

It was cooool.

Anyway. We left the Iron Maiden show early, cause we wanted to see if we were able to meet Avenged. And Ylva had seen the busses earlier, so we went up that way. We came to the fences where the busses were, and we waited there for about 20 minutes or so.

Then suddenly, while I was bending down for some weird reason, and Annette and Ylva were fighting over a t-shirt I see the doors on the bus open, and I see Johnny jump out with a girl, and I’m like trying to tell my friends, but I wasn’t even sure it was him, so we end up, not dare to say a word while he walks right pass us.

We saw the whole band, except from Johnny on top of this roof, apparently watching Iron Maiden, and what’s funny is that we’d seen them up there, not seen who they were xD

Anyway. I think we met Matt once before we met Jimmy, Zacky and Syn. Anyways, later, after more waiting, Annette suddenly says “Maria, there they are, coming up the road” and I was like “yeah, right” and then I saw them, and I started shaking like a leaf, I have to admit, I must have looked terrified.

They came up the road from the backstage area just after Maiden was finished, and when they came over to us, we took pictures with first Jimmy then Synyster. Zacky ran off to the bus I think, before we were able to get a pic. We talked to them a lot too.

They had said, on stage, that they were coming back in February, and we asked Syn about it, and he was all “We told everyone that we'll be back in February. but actually it'll be more March, and when a rockstar says a date and the fans figure out it's later, they'll become pissed. So make sure to tell everyone that we'll be back in March, not February, but March"

I didn’t have a pen on me, so when we were suppose to get Jimmy’s autograph, we were all like “DO SOMEONE HAVE A PEEEEENN??????” to everyone we saw, but I got him to sign my map (over Oslo XD) with some eyeliner, and he took a bit on himself afterwards. Then a girl wrote her phone number on his arm and took a pic with him when he didn’t notice, making it look like she was spanking his ass xD

Later I was still trying to get a pen, so I asked Jimmy if they had any pens on their bus, and he was making fun of me cause I was so nervous so I forgot a lot of English words XD I talked Norwegian to them at several times. Anyhow, Jimmy started jumping on this fence, making it almost collapse, and at the same time drink some stuff from a bottle. And I was trying to ask him about pens.

We met this boy later, that had a flag poster (like the one we had at Hove) that he tied to the fence right next to the bus (someone in avenged stole the poster btw Oo) He was taking a pic with Syn, and Syn gave his bottle to Jimmy, who started to hit the fence with it, saying “Look Syn :D Syyyyyyyyn???” Trying to get Syn’s attention xD

After a while with chat’ing with them, they went into the bus, and we tried to get them out again. They Matt comes from the place they had dressing rooms, and we took pic’s with him, and got his autograph (at this point I had only Matt and Jimmy’s) and we asked if he could get them out of the bus again, but he said that he couldn’t make them come unless they wanted to, and I just kept saying that he had to force them xD

After some waiting for them to get out of the bus, the doors open and Syn comes out and sits down at the floor in the bus with his legs outside xD And we get his autograph, and he had to tell me over and over again to hold it still xD hahahaha, it was a bit embarrassing xD

While we were talking with Syn, the boy that we’d met earlier shouted “Johnny, come out” and all we hear is “Bro, I’m right here” and Syn saying “But he’s right there” and none of us had seen him come at all, and he was standing right next to us xD

Then we took pic’s with Johnny too, and got his autograph (it was at this point the poster got stolen, by either Matt or Syn) and they went into this van / mini bus, and I shouted to Matt that we’d be at the gig in March, and he shouted back that he’d be there too. xD

Then we waited for Zacky to come, and when he finally did, he was to sign my map, and he took my hand :O He took my hand and dragged it through the fence to make me hold it while he signed. I was all “:O :D” and then we asked if we could get a pic with him, and he said yes and was about to get to the gate, so he could be on the same side of the fence as us, but then this crazy chick shows up and tries to take him to the van / minibus and he said no and, I am dead serious, he held onto the fence to stay there :O to take the pic with us. But the chick lady took him from us :C

Some funny quotes :
Boy: So where are you partying tonight?
Jimmy: *looks funny at boy* Well… I’m not gonna tell you >:D

Boy: So you’re playing here again in March?
Matt: Yeah.
Me: We’ll be there!
Matt: Awesome! I’ll be there too!
Me: Haha, no shit XD

Jimmy: I’m terrified of heights, but I love skydiving though, but I’m terrified of heights. (I think this was while Ylva talked about how he managed to have a spider on his face in Afterlife)

Me: *talks some random shit on Norwegian to one of the guys*
Ylva : Så du skal snakke norsk til dem? (So you’re gonna talk Norwegian to them?)
Me: Fuck. *blushes*
(or something like that)

Me: We have friends / fans “at home” that couldn’t be here tonight :C
Syn:  Aww

Me: You sure you don’t have any pens on the bus?
Jimmy, while jumping on the fence: *long silence* hm.. noooo.
Me: You suuuuuure?
Jimmy: *silence yet again* I just have this bottle of *something*
Me: You can’t sign my map with that… thing… :C
Jimmy: Laughs at me >_>

Boy: Johnny, come out!!
Johnny, right next to us: Bro, I’m right here
Syn: But he’s right there
Everyone: *dies of laughter*

I still don’t have the pic of me, Ylva and Johnny, cause the girl that took the pic, which was with her father’s cell phone has gone on vacation or some shit ._. And the pic’s I have is so bad quality, I could kill myself for not taking my camera with right at that moment.

After we’d talked with all the guys, and they were gone (and we saw The Barry’s too btw :D) we walked home to Ylva. Where we ate a little and watched tv, then went to bed. The next day we spent in Oslo before I and Annette had to catch the train home.

 

This week I’ve seen:
Bentley Music
Bertine Zetlitz
Lizz Wright
DeLillos
Lauren Harris
Avenged Sevenfold
Iron Maiden
Farmers Market
Ane Brun
Solomon Burke
Heroes & Zeros

I’ve been to two of the days at the Canal Street festival here in Arendal, cause my sister got me free tickets, cause she works there. The ppl at the gates thought I was over 18, so they let me in without see my ID, so I could by beer and stuff, but I didn’t :] They didn’t even check if I had a ticket Oo

I got an Avenged Sevenfold, or a “A7X” tattoo on my wrist too :] It’ll go away on 3 weeks or so though :C

Next week I’m going to Copenhagen. Yay.

I have no idea if I got it all in the journal, or if I’ve written something two times, cause it’s in the middle of the night right now >_>

I'm still in shock. We met them all, Jimmy, Johnny, Shadows, Syn and Zacky. Even the Barry's or what they're called. We got pics, autographs and we talked WITH them.

I'm gonna write more when I've calmed down ._.

Avenged Sevenfold tomorrow

I leave for Oslo tomorrow with Annette :D
We're gonna see Avenged Sevenfold and Iron Maiden at Valle Hovin with Ylva!
And we'll stay at Ylva's house the night and then take the train back to Arendal at Friday.

Which means.. I won't be online tomorrow :D :]

I just don't hope that the hardcore maiden fans will be all "booo" at A7X, it'll make me really pissed off :]

Oh, and what's funny is that tomorrow it's exactly 1 month since I saw them last! :D
It'll be their 3rd concert in Norway in ONE month. That's awesome.

Do I believe in God?

I got that question today. Who asked, is not important, rather the answer.

"Do you believe in God?"
"Yes, mather of fact, I do, but not the God you believe in, I have my own God, a God that I look up to"
"And what is the name of this God of yours?"
"His name is Nikki Fucking Sixx"

What does it matter anyway?

From below the bridge, part 1. (Fanfic, yay.)

Ok, so I wrote this story for my exam last winter, and I kinda just wanted to post it here to see your response. I got 5+ out of 6, which is very good.

 


”Get out of here!” I heard my mother shout through the open door to the small bedroom that was mine. “I do not want to see you here ever again!”
I felt tears in my eyes. I had never seen her so angry, it was like our lives had gone to pieces. I quickly got up from my bed and gathered some of my belongings in a small backpack.
I saw the picture of me and my family on the small table next to my bed. I saw my father, holding around my mother and me in the front of them. I missed him so much, it was just weeks since he died of cancer. “April!” I heard my mother shout from the kitchen. I took the picture and put it in the backpack.
“Bye mom” I said while I ran out the door, hoping that she would come after me and give me a hug and beg for me to come back. It didn’t happen.

I stopped a bit for my tears to dry up and looked around. It was getting pretty late already. Feeling tired, I started to look for a place I could stay. This wasn’t the first time I would stay out alone at night, but it was the first time I had been thrown out of my home. Slowly I walked towards the bridge a couple of houses away. I’d been there so many times, to be alone and gather my thoughts.

The bridge looked big and scary in the dark. I couldn’t hear anything which probably meant that no one was here. Some empty beer bottles and pizza cartons were lying in the shadows, but I couldn’t see anyone. At least not anyone alive. Quickly I looked through the pizza cartons to see if there was any pizza left. I was lucky. A small piece was still there in the last carton. After eating the small bit I felt the tiredness in my body. I was glad there were grass on the ground here, and I laid down on it. Soon the tiredness took over my body and I slowly fell asleep.

The next couple of days slowly passed. I had some money so I could buy something to eat. I didn’t eat that much at all, just some pieces of bread a couple of times at day. It was easy to get water, just steal from houses with garden watering on. I didn’t really do that much at all, I didn’t go to school, I just stayed under the bridge trying to stay away from trouble. People didn’t seem to care a lot about me at all in this town. I just prayed that no one would come here.

“Hey” I woke up by feeling someone poke my head. “Are you alive?” I opened my eyes and saw a boy sitting next to me. I quickly sat up and looked at him. He had beautiful black hair and some even more beautiful eyes. Besides that he was skinny, wearing some jeans with a t-shirt. His hair was messy and a bit long.
“Oh, so you are alive?” He joked and laughed a bit before he looked back at me, “what are you doing here?” I looked away from him and didn’t say anything, hoping that he would go away.
“You don’t want to talk to me?” I looked back at him and wondered if I could trust him.
“I’m April” I said after a while.
“Hi” he said and looked at me again, “I’m Zack, but my friends call me Zacky”
There was an awkward silence. I looked at him again, he was looking at all the trash around the place that I’d slept. Every time I looked at him I got that weird feeling in my stomach, it was like being in heaven I thought.
“So.. How old are you?” I snapped out of my thoughts and turned away again, totally red in my face because he’d noticed that I was staring at him.
“I’m 16” I said eventually and hoped that the most of the red color was gone and turned back to him, “you?”
“I’m 18” he said and smiled at me, as if nothing had happened. That warm smile made me feel like I could trust him and open more up for him than I did.
“So what are you doing here?” he asked again.

Suddenly it all just flew out of me, like I was hypnotized. I told him about almost everything. That my father died, that me and my mom always fought, then getting thrown out of my home.
He just sat there and listened to me. Why would he do that? Sit and listen to a stupid 16 year old girl under a fucking bridge?
He didn’t say a word until I was finished with talking about all my problems.
“That sucks” He sat closer to me and watched my tears flow down my cheeks. He started to look at my stuff again. I’d literally just put it around on the ground.
“Do you have any food?” I looked at the little piece of bread I had left.
“This is all I have” I gave it to him, but it didn’t seem like he was going to eat it.
“Is this all you have?” He looked at me, suddenly really serious. I nodded slowly and he looked at me like I was crazy.
“And I thought I was skinny” He mumbled to himself, real quiet.
“Come, let me get you something to eat” He stood up and reached his hand to me. I took it and got up on my feet. I felt the weakness in my body. He took my things and the backpack. We slowly walked out from below the bridge and into the warmness of the sun.

 


I know it sucks, but I wanted to post it here ^^
The story is not finished, the task was to only write the beginning.
I can continue on it, but if I do is something else.

Happy B-day, Syn :D


 

Oh, and I got that whiskey t-shirt Zacky always use :D
I'll find a pic of it (:


That one :D Just like a t-shirt, and black instead of grey.
