Tex looked at the solemn faces of his band member. Well, three of them anyway. Katlin gave a small smile, and swallowed and Tex put his arm around her. He could tell she was scared, they all were. But Tex and Neil were looking after her, Katlin’s best friend and her brother were both there for her and they both defended her as much as they could.
“Round two.” Came a voice from the door, and the three of them turned to see Toby. They’d trusted him, and now Tex wished they hadn’t. He nodded and went first, the instant he was out of the holding cell that doubled up as where the trio lived these days a Black Raven came and sat on his shoulder.
Tex flinched when it pecked at his throat, but he didn’t dare bat it away. The last time he’d done that the blue skinned men had beaten him. Tex didn’t really understand he didn’t really believe all this was happening. He and his family had stayed away from the world war, the continuous struggle he had never really believed the immortals had existed and now he was being thrown head long into this.
The club was already busy with more of ‘them’, Tex and the other took their places on stage. He had to be confident now, he was the front man, the rest relied on him. The announcement kicked over ‘Ladies and Gentleman, Encrypted give you Sweet Raven’
Toby started the drums and once again their fight for their lives began.
Naturally though the crowd loved them. Tex was good, they all were, and as the song fired up and he gave all his energy into their first piece of the night the terror and nerves drained away. It was all about the music – no matter how deadly the audience were.
His voice pitched out over the already bouncing crowd. Clear and confidant. Tex was a born performer, and he played up to the monstrous crowd.

"Baby's got blue eyes and she's wanting to stay
But I am running out of time with nothing to say
So it's that kinda night when the beers are gone
Now I'm all alone man there's something wrong
And this is not the first time and I'm sorry to say
But when it comes to pretty girls I fall apart on the way
So it's that kinda night when the beers are gone
Now I'm all alone man there's something wrong
And if you don't believe me
Watch, and I will make it happen
If you wanna see me, fall apart again
But if it's going to be this way, here I come to
Save the day!
And while I'm at it throw a hand grenade
On everything good around
Here to stay!
To make a mess of all the plans we made
And everything good around here
Cause if you wanna see me
See me out the door girl!
I need you to believe me
Cause I don't want to hurt you!
If you really need me
I'm only gonna let you down!
I've seen this a thousand times and I've been here before
Now I'm afraid to blink my eyes and end up outside your door
So I think that I might. When the goings gone
Play it all alone. Man there's something wrong
And if you don't believe me
Watch, and I will make it happen
If you wanna see me, fall apart again
But if it's going to be this way, here I come to
Save the day!
And while I'm at it throw a hand grenade
On everything good around
Here to stay!
To make a mess of all the plans we made
And everything good around here
Cause if you wanna see me
See me out the door girl!
I need you to believe me
Cause I don't want to hurt you!
If you really need me
I'm only gonna let you down!
And if
you get too close I'm
gonna hurt you
I can't trust you I'm
Never gonna come
Through
If you get too close I'm
Gonna hurt you
I can't trust you I'm
Never gonna come through
(If you get too)
Close I'm gonna hurt you
(I can't trust you)
We're never gonna come through
(If I come through)
Here I come to save the day!
And while I'm at it throw a hand grenade
On everything good around here to stay
Don't make a mess of all the plans we made
And everything good around here
(And if you wanna see me)
See me out the door girl
(I need you to believe me)
Cause I don't want to hurt you
(If you really need me)
I'm only gonna let you down
(Hand grenade)
If you get too close I'm gonna hurt you
(Hand grenade)
I can't trust you I'm never gonna come through
(Hand grenade)
If you get too close I'm gonna hurt you
(Hand grenade)
I can't trust you I'm never gonna come through
