The Umbrella Academy
Crash The Cemetery Gates
One hour later…
Harley’s POV
As we finished our rehearsal, the girl came back and was wearing that same smirk I saw a some hours ago.
“Are you guys done?” she asked.
“Yeah.” We all replied and smiled.
“Come along then.” She said as she gestured for us to follow her.
We followed her, leaving the instruments.
As we followed her, she lead led us to a really big hall where are these vampire angels were glaring at us.
She ushered us onto the stage and then went away.
We froze for a minute, but looked at each other and smiled.
We had decided to play Thank You For The Venom and a song called Cemetery Drive.
The two that had first gathered up the band were tuning their guitars. They looked really professional as they tuned their guitars. I looked at the guy called Ray as he talked with the girl called Silvia.
“Hello? Are you listening Harley?” Courtney said as she waved her hand in front of me.
“Huh? Oh..sorry.” I said as I walked over to the drum set. As I sat, I felt a warm hand settle on my shoulder.
I looked up to see Ray.
“You’ll do good.” He said as he went over to the others and gave them the thumbs up before he went to his place.
Was I...Was falling in love with...
Suddenly, I was brought back to the present as Ray and Silvia began to play.
Billie began to sing,
Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal

And you never had a chance

Love it, or leave it, you can't understand

A pretty face, but you do so carry on

And on,
And on
Ray began to sang in harmony with Billie and also Jasmin.
Jasmin sang,



I wouldn't front the scene if you paid me

I'm just the way that the doctor made me,
On
And on
And on
And on

Silvia began to sing,
Love is the red of the rose on your coffin door

What's life like, bleeding on the floor,
the floor
the floor
Billie went to the front as he sang,


You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

Give me a reason to believe
The trio, with Ray doing the harmony, sang,


So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts

And make me ill

You're running after something
That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will
Billie stood in the same place again.



Preach all you want but who's gonna save me?

I keep a gun on the book you gave me, hallelujah, lock and load
Silvia slyly smiled as she gave Jasmin her que as Jasmin stepped forward.

Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpent son

It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you one
And one
And one
And one
Billie smiled as he took Jasmin’s hand and began to dance with her on the stage.



You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

Give me a reason to believe
Then, Billie’s voice became a whisper into the mic as he and Jasmin looked into each others eyes as Ray and Silvia began to giggle a bit.
Courtney began to play the piano.
So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me all your hopeless hearts

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want then…
And then, at that moment, Billie and Jasmin let go of each other and Ray and Silvia came out and screamed into the mic in front of them.
Fire at will!!
And then it became the two doing solos and duets and they were having a small competition between them.
Billie jumped in front of them after they were done.

You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

You wanna follow something

Give me a better cause to lead

Just give me what I need

Give me a reason to believe

And then all of them began to sing as I kept hitting the drums.


So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills
And give me all your hopeless hearts
And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want
Then fire at will
And then, the song ended with the finishing of the two guitarists.
The room was silent for some seconds, and then a roar of applause and asking for more from us.
Billie looked over at Silvia who smiled and mouthed “Cemetery” to Billie and he nodded his head as he ruffled Silvia's hair.
Ray looked over at Courtney and then at Jasmine who nodded her head in agreement.
Silvia looked at me and I gave her the thumbs up.
Billie went up to the mic.
“Our next song is called “Cemetery Drive”.”
There were some whispers and groans in the audience but we didn’t worry at all.
I started the beat as the others joined in. Courtney had taken the bassist’s place since we later on figured out that she could also play the bass too.
Billie started singing again.
This night, walk the dead

In a solitary style

And crash the cemetery gates

In the dress your husband hates

Way down, mark the grave
Where the search lights find us
Drinking by the mausoleum door

And they found you on the bathroom floor
Ray and Silvia began to sing,

I miss you, I miss you so far
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard


Billie took a step forward again.
Back home, off the run

Singing songs that make you slit your wrists
It isn't that much fun, staring down a loaded gun
Ray began to sing,


So I won't stop dying, won't stop lying

If you want I'll keep on crying

Did you get what you deserve?

Is this what you always want me for?
Billie came in,


I miss you, I miss you so far

And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard


Silvia and Jasmine whispered into their mics,
Way down, way down

Way down, way down

Way down, way down

Way down, way down


Billie half yelled half sang into the mic,
I miss you, I miss you so far

And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard

I miss you, I miss you so far

And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard

Made it so hard
Ray and Jasmine were singing softly,


Way down, way down
Way down, way down

Way down, way down

Way down, way down

Billie looked at the audience of vampire angels.
Way down
And then the song ended and then there was another round of applause as we got off the stage.
Billie was helping Silvia off from the stage when suddenly, the room became very silent as someone came into the room.
Silvia looked at the figure and held Billie's arm tightly.
“Well well...quite a good band I see?” the girl cackled as she advanced forward.
Billie was also staring at her, but his eyes quickly turned into ones of hatred.
“Lilia…” Billie growled as he tried to control himself.
“Why Billie..what happened to your arm?” she mocked, ut she advanced toward Billie quickly.
Billie tried to get away from the girl called Lilia but she was too fast for him as she caught his arm.
“Lilia...What are you going to do to him?” Ray asked in a calm voice.
“Just healing it…that’s all…” she said in a more softer tone as she said some kind of ritual and Billie’s arm healed instantly.
“Lilia..but…” Billie mumbled but Lilia shook her head.
“Don’t think that was for kindness…but for…being one of my friends.” Lilia said quietly and then looked at Silvia.
“Silvia…” she purred, but Silvia backed up against the wall away from Billie and Lilia.
“Stay..away…from…me…” Silvia gasped as she ran out of the room.
Billie’s POV
I ran after Silvia, but so did Lilia for some reason.
I looked at her weirdly.
“Why are you all of a sudden being so nice?!” I shouted at her as I ran after Silvia.
“I don’t know…I DON’T CARE ANYMORE!” Lilia screamed at me and she whammed me against the wall.
“What the hell Lilia!! What the hell is your problem!” I shouted as Silvia came running up to me.
“Billie..Billie you ok?” Silvia asked frantically as she tried to get up, but one look at Lilia and she was shivering all over.
“Why are you afraid of me?!” Lilia said angrily as she advanced toward Silvia.
Silvia just shook her head and hugged onto me.
I put a protective arm around Silvia as Lilia tried to grab her up from the floor.
“Don’t you get it? Of course she’s afraid of you. You broke her heart and what else did you do? Give her that damn curse!” I shouted at Lilia as Silvia buried her head in my chest.
“No more Billie…don’t say anything more…” Silvia whispered and then looked down again at the floor.
Lilia clapped her hands and some of the vampire angels appeared.
“Take them back to the jail.” She hissed and the vampire angels carried us roughly to the place and threw us back in there. The others were there, waiting for us.
