Dead Angelica Version 20 *-* You Ripped My Heart Out Of Me, Then You Put It Back
A Baby?! Chapter 6- The End- "Four or Five Years Later"
   Millions of cheering fans... strobe lighting effects illuminating us... me jumping up and down... making music... ohh yeah!
   Okay, maybe not millions. But a lot of people. A whole sea of faces, in different colours, singing along to the sounds coming out of our guitars and drums.
   And it's great, I feel so alive, so triumphant. Being on stage exhilarates me, fills me. Envelopes me in a glow, an aura.
   Ah shit. I hit a bum note, which earns me a death glare from Joel.
   But you know what? I'm happy. Yeah. The thought rises slowly inside me, a bubble of pure elation.
   I haven't forgotten. I will never forget her. But I've moved on. I've got a beautiful new girlfriend who I love dearly and who holds the same ideals and morals as me. God, I can't believe I put my tongue inside the mouth of someone who ate dead animal carcasses!
   I have wonderful supportive friends. I never have to face bastards like Sam Cartland again.
   Ha. I made it. In your face, Cartland. In your face, Jessica. I made it without you, in spite of you.
   We start to play 'The Anthem'. I launch myself into the song, strumming hard and singing along.
   "You, don't wanna be just like you..."
   I'm happy being myself. I don't know where Jess is, but I hope she's happy too. And I hope that if I ever get to heaven, I'll see the smiling face of my unborn child.
