 “Hi I’m John Norris and this is an Mtv news brief. Today Nick Carter and Jessica Phillips were found dead in a hospital room earlier this morning…apparently they committed suicide. Whose misadventures piteous over throw docked with their death bury their friends and families strife’s the fearful passing of their death marked love and the contentious of their friends and families rage, which brought their end not to remove. Is now the two hour dilemma of our stage,” he replied.

Nick looked out the window of the moving tour bus. He sighed and fell back into a plush blue chair.  He thought to himself,

           

“What if I just left the group?” He shook his head. He had been very depressed lately, and his friends and family were getting very concerned. He shut his eyes to shut out the light shining through the windows. He got up and walked over to the area with the bunks. He sat down on his and shut the curtain.

           

Brian watched the curtain close around the bunk. He shook his head and sighed. Nick had never been this bad. The phone ringing interrupted Brian’s thoughts. He reached over and answered it,

           

“Hello?”

           

“Brian?” Jane Carter came over the line.

           

“Yes?”

           

“Is Nick ok?”

 

“I don’t think so.”

           

“He shuts his windows and lets no light come in at all…he sits in his room and creates his own light,” she replied.  Brian nodded to himself.  Nick closed the blinds in every room he went into.  They talked for a awhile more before they hung up.  Brian looked at Nick’s bunk again and sighed.
