Awww... that was so sweet...
I don't even know where to start. Love the line 'It was bumpy and the guy drove like he had a death wish.' That made me lol. And the subtleties of the romantic tension... omg, they're so sweet... I so wanna be Lan! *laughs*
But I love the fine impressions of detail. You don't go overboard (Like I do) and it doesn't detract from the story. You have nice visual imagery.
The sand, the sea, body heat, all of it is nicely done. I like.
CAN'T WAIT for more! And the way Rav responded when she met Rob - yeah, I'd probably swallow my own tongue in real life to even see him so that was probably an accurate description. Nice.
Anyway. Get cracking. More, damnit! I wanna see these two have a big (traditional? Molatov!) wedding and have lots of little Lan's and Rob's. *s******s* But of course, drama will make it more memorable... and I don't know at all what that Manga you mentioned is about, so 0_o *looks vague* But so far reads well. Nice inclusion of Drave and Chaz too... makes me wonder what the 'unspoken' tension between the lead vox and percussionist is, anything major or as yet undeveloped?? Hmmm...
Thanks bud, *hugs*

*gets excited* awwww can't wait!! I've subscribed to this thread, dagnammit!! I need the updates... (my ***, how pathetic did I suddenly just sound?) But this story is amazing. Usually Mike and Chaz are the main protagonists - having Rob in lead role (or equal share lead opposite OC) is a refreshing change! Thanks Phi! *squeeze hugs*

"What is your problem Chaz?"
Mike asked incredicuously, Chester sat on the floor with a humph.
"I mean this chick comes out of no where and suddenly Rob's in love. There has to be a catch to it."
Chester said heatedly, Mike chuckeled.
"You're just jealous that little Rob has a girlfriend that for once actualy loves him and not you, not like the disasterous Susan episode."
Chester crossed his arms and sank lower into the floor. He would give anything to beable to sink into the ground after that disaster.
"Look I was drunk and I thought she was sam."
He said pointedly, trying to defend himself. Mike shook his head.
"You might have been drunk, but she wasnt. She knew **** well what the **** she was doing. It still hurt Rob. But the least you could do is swallow your overweening pride and apologize to him. He may be just the drummer but even they have feelings too you know."
Chester snorted at Mike even though he knew he had a point. Mike gave him a sympathetic pat on the back.
"I think we all need a nice little vacation, some time in a nice place where we can all relax."
Mike said as he pulled out a bunch of tickets from his back pocket.
"I'll be fine as long as I dont have to room with Joe. Where did you and bob put us up to stay any ways?"
"The Bahamas."
(Lan's POV Later that week.)
I gave a short blast on my whistle as I gave the dolphin Aaron another command. He rolled onto his back and let me rub his belly. Rav came up on the dock behind me and clapped. I tossed Aaron another fish, He made a happy click as he swallowed the fish whole.
"Lan we have a group of seven comming, You wanna take them and I'll film it?"
"Sure Rav."
I said as I rubbed Aaron down on his belly. I frowned. I thought I saw Rob for a moment, but most likely it was just a figment of my imagination.
"Lan!!"
I turned around to see Rob.
"What are you doing here rob?"
"What am I doing here what are you doing here?"
Rob asked back as he hugged me. It felt nice to see him again.
"This is my Biology 2 field trip. I guess I'm gonna be the one showing you the dolphins."
Rob smiled as he brushed away a stray strand of hair from my face. I looked at chester, he still had the same look of anger and irritation on his face that he did a few days ago on the beach. I got the hint there was a little tension between them....strike that, loads of tension. Once everyone had gotten seated, I blew my whistle and called for Aaron.
"Alright lets get this thing started. Who would like a dolphin kiss?"
I saw the guys look between eachother and shake their heads. Then the girl beside the guy with the fro raised her hand.
"I'll do it. Come on Brad."
She took Brad by his hand and they lowered themselves onto the ledge. Rav had the camera and told them to get on their knees.
"Now Brad kiss her when the dolphin kisses her."
I gave Aaron the signal, Brad and Aaron kissed the girl at the same time. I could tell that she and Brad were together. The girl had reddish hair and glasses, from the looks of it, she was a bit shorter then brad. I looked over at Rav, She was biting her lip the whole time she filmed the thing. Soon they all got into the water. After Aaron gave out all of his dolphin hugs, he rolled over so they could pat him. Rob grinned as he finished patting Aaron's belly.
"Did you like that Aaron?"
I gave him another hand signal and he started nodding his head.
"Why dont you get Rob a treasure?"
I touched Aaron on the nose and then made a triangle with my hands. He dove into the water and was soon out of sight.
"Where did he go?"
The shivering bald guy asked. Rob seemed to be the only one smart enough to wear a wet suite.
"He went to bring back a treasure, didnt you hear her?"
Brad said as he huddeled with his girlfriend.
"Oh by the way, Lan, these are my best friends and Bandmates. You already met chester....."
I could hear the disdain in his voice.
"That's brad and his girlfriend Taylor, Dave, Mike, and joe. Guys this is Lan, the girl I was telling you about."
Suddenly there was a huge splash and a yelp. All of us looked over to see a wet Rav sputtering and trying to get the hair out of her face. The camera had landed on the deck and thankfully not in the water. Aaron swam up behind her and was making a rapid clicking sound that sounded alot like laughter. I helped Rav out of the water and Aaron gave Rob his little gift. It was a little rock. Everyone climbed out of the pool and started toweling off. Rob sat on the edge of the little floating dock where I gave Aaron some fish. Rav was shaking as she helped the guys up onto the dry dock, she was doing a great job concealing her excitement about the guys.
"Did you here about the mass dissaperances that's happening all over the US?"
Rob asked in a small voice. I shook my head.
"I've been stuck on an island for the past thirteen days. We dont get newpapers here."
Rob's brow furrowed.
"Well I think there's a connection. It was either a Rock star or someone who was close to a Rock star. I want you to be careful, they seem to think that our band might be the next target. Just stay safe."
He kissed her on the cheek as he changed and she walked him to the ferry that would take him back.
"When are you leaving?"
I asked him as Aaron followed us in the water.
"Not till later tonight. What about you?"
"We leave around three tomorrow. our plane should land some time around ten, eleven o'clock at night."
Rob got on the boat.
"Don't forget I love you lan."
"I love you too Rob!"
I grinned as Aaron made the dolphin laugh again. I turned to him and gave him another signal. He did a multitude of flips ending with waving the boat off with his tail wave.
Mike asked incredicuously, Chester sat on the floor with a humph.
"I mean this chick comes out of no where and suddenly Rob's in love. There has to be a catch to it."
Chester said heatedly, Mike chuckeled.

Awww, Phi, this is just altogether sweet. I know that sounds crappy but I can't think of a better word to describe it... it's just so sweet... moving. Sentimental. Hopefully you get the gist...
Beautiful update by the way.
Have to admit the Chaz/Susan thing rocked me - OMFG, so didn't see that one coming. Funny how Chaz is more cut over it than Rob is. I know Rob has moved on in essence with a new love but it almost seems as if Chaz had wanted to get a reaction from Rob over the affair and is ****** he hasn't gotten it. Strange... that's guys for ya.
Well, just... awesome-ness. It's a beautiful story. Flows quite nicely too.
The whole mass disappearances thing was a bit befuddling but... *shrugs* I'm sure that will be made clear as it develops, yeah?
BTW, Rav's reaction to the band. Nice. I'd've thrown up and been one undignified shade of beetroot after being made an *** of infront of the guys let alone Rob (or being a general *** myself) so that's a dignified description. I was almost afraid Rav even as Lan's friend was gonna get jealous over the budding romance given she's as love-struck for Rob as she is (practically wetting herself whenever he's near) - maybe her and Chaz may concoct a scheme huh?? Ohhh, the plot so thickens...
I really can't wait for more. Just... just... awesome. Keep up the great work. But one thing wrong with it as far as I can see - not enough. I WANT MORE! Pretty please with cherries on top??

I'm not kidding when I say this is one of the best fanfics I've read
this one will share the top spot with the Chaz story lprunaway wrote a while ago
I'm just really enjoying this story.
the thing with fanfics is that most fanfics's quality kinda disappears with every chapter, topic sounds good at the beginning, then gets kinda old
but this one sure doesn't

alright thanks for the kind words, viking and Rav. I hope you enjoy this next part of the story.
(general POV)
Rob stood on the tips of his toes trying to see over the crowd at the baggage claim where he promised to meet Lan. He gave Rav a friendly wave as he came up to her.
"Hey have you seen Lan about any where?"
Rav shook her head. He still made her feel awestruck, but she was getting used to him pretty quickly. She turned her head to the conveyer belt and pointed.
"She's over there getting her bags........Rob? Rob?''
Rave looked in all directions, Rob was no where to be found. She peered past the crowd but he still wasnt there. Lan struggeled to make it over to Rav.
"Have you seen Rob yet?"
She asked as she put her bag down.
"I dont know he was here just a moment ago, now he's dissapeared."
"Maybe he had to use the WC."
Lan said as she started looking around as well.
"I dont konw I would have seen him......Lan?"
Suddenly Lan and her bag were gone with no where in sight. Rav stuck out her bottom lip and gave a small pout.
"Why is everyone leaving me?"
(Lan's POV)
Some one shoved me head roughly into a sack so I couldnt see a **** thing. I was thrown in a car or a van of some kind. There was a familiar grunt from the thing I landed on. My eyes went black and little stars formed in them as my bag was tossed ontop of me. My hands were jerked and roughly tied together. I heard someone's heart beat speed up since who ever it was seemed to be jammed inbetween me, two walls and a floor. The body swore loudly.
"Rob?"
Came me muffeled voice.
"Lan?"
I breathed a sigh of relief. Rob placed what felt like his chin ontop of my head, It was comforting considering I was scared out of me skin.
"Don't worry Lan, I'll be here. Nothing's gonna happen."
Rob said. His heart was racing, Mine was pounding in my throat and I felt like I was gonna puke.
"I'm scared Rob."
I wimpered. Rob nuzzeled the top of my head with, I think, his nose.
"Don't be afraid. I wont let anything happen to you."
"SHUT UP YOU FILTHY SON OF A *****!"
a gruff, roaring voice shouted over the din of a rusted up engine. We were both thrown sideways so we were lying in an awkward position.
"Just dont try to move."
Rob whispered as he began to squirm into a comfortable position, as comfortable as possiable with me lying dazed half ontop of him. I felt myself start to cry softly. Rob Nudged me with his head.
"Dont cry, shhhh. I promise I wont let nothing happen to you. I love you too much to let it happen."
He whispered again in my ear. I sniffed as I laid me head down on Rob's strong chest.
"That's it. Sleep."
He whispered again. The sound of his heart beat was calming, rythmic like the waves. His scent of hickory and sea water was intoxicating and serene. Me eyes fluttered open and closed as sleep took over.
The screeching rusted engine was harsh on me ears. There was a grunt as Rob was jerked awake too. Some one pulled me by me legs and threw me into what sounded like a room with three other people in it. There was a hiss of pain from Rob as he landed on my back. My hands were untied and we were left here. I pulled off the bag from my head and looked at rob. His eyes were wide with pain as he clutched his wrist. Oh ****. I gently examined it.
"I'm sorry Rob, it looks like you have a broken wrist."
I pulled something out of my bag that had been tossed in with us. I looked at the three other people who lurked in the corners with various injuries that looked atleast days old. I pulled a first aid kit out of me bag. I took the surgical tape and carefully set Rob's wrist. I then handed him one of my painkillers.
"This should numb the pain for 24hours."
I said patting him gingerly on the back as he swallowed the pill dry. There was a tap on me shoulder and I looked at the other three.
"Could you fix us up?"
"Benji? What are you doing here?"
Benji shrugged his shoulders and winced as the cut near his eye opened up and started trickeling blood again.
"I dont know, one day I'm at school the next I'm here."
I made Benji sit down on the hard concrete floor. I dabbed it with rubbing alcohol. As I bandaged it up, benji made a motion with his hand.
"This is Tom DeLongue from Blink-182 and Aaron Lewis from Staind. We think Aaron has a broken leg and Tom needs stitches on his back, think you can play nurse and help us out?"
I smiled as I felt Rob's touch on my back.
"Yeah, of course I can."
I said. I first put liquid stitches on Toms back and then covered it up with gauze. With Rob and Benji's help, I made it to my feet. They helped me over to Aaron. He was laying on a mattress in the corner of this dingy room that had pipes running all the way through it. Aaron raised his head slowly to look at us.
"Aaron, I'm gonna fix your leg. I promise it will only hurt a little bit. Which one is it?"
Without a word he pointed to his left leg. I nodded and set to work.
Brad and taylor sat worried. Dave paced the length of the living room with mike. Chester sat broodingly in Rob's large squishy arm chair. Joe was asleep in the other chair, jet lag was really getting to him. There was a loud thump as Mike and Dave collided painfully with each other. As Dave stood up, rubbing the top of his head, he looked around the room.
"I'm going to go look for him."
Dave said decidely.
"I'm going to come too. Has any one tried Rob's cell phone?"
Mike asked. they shook their heads.
"Yeah, but every time it just keeps ringing or theres no signal."
Taylor murmered. Dave and Mike grabbed their jackets

Hey Phi,
I have to agree with Viking on this one, the more you progress with your updates the stronger your story becomes rather than wanes like many (most) others. This chapter by far IMHO excedes those previous, just in it's intensity. I'm just in awe of how well you write, it's amazing. The flow is great, the twang to differentiate between character dialogue is also good and the small details again, the scents of hickory and the sea for example, is just superb.
You really are a genuine talent.
Can't wait to see where this goes. If I had my way I'd have you locked in a room updating this all the time! *laughs*
Just great. Keep it up!

"So what is this place?"
Rob asked as he clumbsily fed himself from the megar portion of what looked like high
school cafeteria food.
"I have no idea. But it sounds like we're close to the ocean."
Lan said as she looked up at the barred window that sat about two and a half feet above
her head when she stood up. She sat on the mattress with Aaron. Lan had taken it upon
herself to care for Aaron, he seemed to be alot worse off then any of the others. He barely
moved and spoke, when he did make a sound it was a harsh, hacking cough. Benji turned
his head towards Lan and Rob. A hatch above their heads opened and blankets were
unceremoniously thrown from the ceiling down into the cell. There were only four
blankets. Lan took one and placed it over Aaron. She moved closer to Rob as he wrapped
the blanket around the both of them. The warmth was comforting. The others seemed to
be asleep when she looked at Rob through the small sliver of moon light that fell through
the tiny window.
"What's with you and Chester?"
Lan asked quietly. Rob let out a sigh.
"If you don't want to tell, its alright."
Lan said as she snuggeled deeper into Rob's arms. Rob gave a small smile as he laid his
cheek on her soft hair.
"No its ok. I guess you'd ask about it sooner or later."
Rob said as he began to reaccount the painful memory.
"We were on tour for Summer Sanitarium and we had just gotten out of dallas. Since it
was one of the last legs of our tour, we decided to go out and have some fun with our
girlfriends and everyone. Alot of us got really drunk. But me and chester, we were
suposed to be the designated drivers, but as usuaul, chester got so drunk he was yarfing
everwhere. Susan, my ex, said she'd take chester up to his hotel room and she never came
back. We found out she was having an affair with chester the whole time we were on
tour. That's the story."
He finished some what lamely. Rob nuzzeled his head down to her cheek.
"You dont have to worry about anything. I dont even know Chester like that."
Rob nodded, his scruffy gotee tickeled her cheek.
"But in all essence, I'm over it. stick a fork in it done. But its like Chester keeps
belaboring it. I swear if he does it any more I'm gonna kick his narrow ***."
Rob said darkly. Lan reached up and stroked his cheek.
"You're a very strong man, Rob, I admire that."
They finally kissed.
"ok ok so you're saying that you were waiting for your friend to come back from the
airport?"
"Yes!"
an exasperated Mike said to airport security.
"You wont get any where with them."
A small voice offered. Mike looked over to see Rav.
"You're like that chick from the dolphin place."
Rav nodded her head turning a wonderfull shade of red, like a raddish with a bad
sunburn.
"My name's Rav. I'm looking for my friend who dissapeared along with Rob."
"Then we should like combine fources and work together. You're like Lan's best friend
right?"
Brad asked as he and Taylor had their arms wrapped around eachother.
"Yeah but she's missing too. I can be the first one to tell you that even if they're missing
you might not ever see them again."
rav pointed to a newspaper. The guys quickly pooled their spare change. Hey, whats a
little money between friends? not a **** of a lot.
"**** we're five cents short. Rav, you got a nickel?"
Rav fished a nickel out of her pocket. Dave pulled open the newspaper stand.
"Rockstar kidnappings have two new victims. Rob Bourdon, 26, and Faollan O'Connor,
19, joined the list of the missing people. The victims were either close to rockstars, or are
rockstars. Authorities say...... we know about this **** already."
Joe grabbed the newspaper and flipped to a different page. He started reading a list of the
people that had gone missing.
"Rob, Lan, Tom DeLongue, Benji Madden, Aaron Lewis, Mike Dirnt, Slash, Jessey
Margera, Mike Valley, Chuck Comeau, Ryan Key, Sean Mackin, Gerard Way, Tony
lovato, Travis Barker, Billy Martin, Dave Grohl, Lars Fredrickson and Davey Havoc. This
is just too strange."
Joe commented. The others nodded in agreement.
"And there's like no demands and no ransome note. THis is like way too freaky."
Brad said, shaking his head. Joe punched one fist into his open hand.
"Looks like we need a rescue mission."
"Who do we know has access to a swat team? incase you havent noticed, there are only
hmm lets see, seven of us I think... yeah seven of us. How are we gonna get enough
people to overpower the people who kiddnapped the rockstars?"
Mike said levely, trying to see where Joe was going with this. Joe gave a huge grin.
"well you have to remember there are atleast four other members of the band that hasnt
been kidnapped."
(what is joe thinking and will he actually make it through with what ever plan he's come
up with in his brain, and will the LP guys ever have enough change to buy another news
paper? i have no clue
phi)
Rob asked as he clumbsily fed himself from the megar portion of what looked like high
school cafeteria food.
"I have no idea. But it sounds like we're close to the ocean."
Lan said as she looked up at the barred window that sat about two and a half feet above
her head when she stood up. She sat on the mattress with Aaron. Lan had taken it upon

Classic!
OMFG, I was so excited that you updated this I've read it three times already! *fans self* Great work... great... Rob kickin' Chas' narrow ***... *s******s* And they finally kissed! *collaspes*
Seriously sweet. Despite the fact that they're caught in a terrifying situation, it's nice to see trauma bringing people together like that
About time too... but sweet. Can understand the apprehension from both sides; Rob doesn't want to get hurt again, Lan's dating a rock star and all the insecurities that go along with that I'd assume... just... *awww*And Rav hanging with the rest of the guys... swish! Just can't wait to see what plan they all formulate/execute. Who's doing this? Why?! *stares at screen waiting for more* If I blink I'll miss something... might have to call in sick for work huh?
But excellent hon,
keep up the great work.

alright its another update. things will get even stranger with this chapter, just try to keep up with it all. n_n
(lan's POV)
"There has to be some reason to the disarry and anarchy of all this."
I said. Rob looked at me tiredly. we had been in this metal death trap for *** knows how long.
"They're looking for something."
Tom piped up. Rob raised an eyebrow.
"What are they looking for?"
The talk was cut off as the hatch overhead was opened and something was thrown in with us. There was a groan as Benji ran to the lump mass that was on the ground.
"Billy!"
Rob and I ran over there. Billy was frail and his whole body was shaking.
"What happened billy?"
Benji and Rob pulled him up as I tended to the cuts on his face.
"They are trying to find the balance."
"Balance?"
Billy promptly fainted. I continued to tend to the wounds on his upper body.
"Balance....."
I murmered. It reminded me of a story I once heard.
"Do you know what the **** they want?"
Benji asked as Tom helped me put Billy on the other mattress next to Aaron.
"The balance, you know, like.......... man let me see."
I frowned as I tried to figure out a way to explain it.
"Alright its like this. Fire and water, Air and earth. They exist together in a balance, sort of like yin and yang in the other asian cultures. Some stories tell of the balance splitting in half and residing in people. The stories say that as long as the two people live harmoniously then the world stays in balance, but once the two get out of sync then its over."
I hoped that it was a sufficiant enough explanation.
"But what are they looking for exactly in us? I can understand about the cults taking the legends way too seriously but this is nuts."
Benji said.
"Sounds to me like they want to throw everything out of balance."
Rob wandered out loud. There was a loud harsh chuckle. the wall slid open as a man with five heavily armed gaurds. They looked like comandos with swords instead of guns.
"Take them and seperate them, I dont want them together. They're too much of a problem. As long as they are on this ship, they are to never see each other."
The man growled, he gave a wave of his hand and the gaurds sprung into action. I grabbed onto Rob, who wrapped me in his strong arms.
"Nononono dont let them take me rob!"
I cried hystericaly.
"I wont I promise, I wont."
Rob whispered, his eyes frantically searched the room for a way out. The man gave a low chuckle.
"How cute, the love birds dont want to leave each other. Cut them down if you have to!"
He roared. Two gaurds grabbed me roughly around me stomache. The other threegrabbed rob by his arms and neck.
"ROB!"
I screamed as I tried to pull free with my arm out streatched. Tears ran down my face as I watched him struggle.
"I WILL DIE BEFORE YOU HURT HER YOU BASTARDS!"
Rob roared as he used and forced all of his strength forward with a single step. The room rocked and quaked. Rob took another step and the room shook even more violently. An enraged fury over came his eyes as he gave another yell of frustration. The man who seemed to be the one in charge stepped back untill his back was up against the wall. 'i have to get to rob!' I thought frantically as I struggeled. a harsh wind wipped through the cell as Tom and Benji retreated to the corner where Aaron and Billy laid on the mattresses. I panted as I was loosing focus and the two were choking me....I need....air. I gasped for air. I felt as if I was falling into the ocean. Water was my friend, Rob was right, but it felt so cold, so freezing. I needed a breath of warmth, a breath of fire. I heard a cry that seemed to shake the water around me. My eyes snapped open to a flooded cell. The walls were all twisted, dented, and half melted. I fell to the ground shivering, trying to catch my breath. Five men were welded into the wall while the sixth man was pinned with by huge rocks. Rob dropped to his knees beside me.
"I....promise nothing...will happen."
He gasped. Suddenly I saw it, the balance.
"Yin and Yang."
Benji said shaking his head. Tom pointed at me.
"water and fire...."
He then pointed at Rob.
"Earth and Air."
"The balance."
Benji said awestruck.
Joe had a mad scientist look about him as he gathered around members of various bands. he gave a fake evil laugh.
"alright guys this is what we're gonna do...."
you know me, I love reviews.
