In Fact, The Whole Damn Tour!No. Theres Too Much At Stake, Said Terry. We Risk Losing Millions.We Risk Losing Our Lives! The Bassist Shot Back.The Band, Tour Manager, Big T And Charley Were All Crammed Into Ashs Dressing Room Backstage At The Nationwide Arena In Columbus. Word Had Leaked Out About The Message On Ashs Computer, And The Band Had Been Spooked.I Tell You, It Was An Accident, Insisted Terry. Just Because Some Anonymous Hater Posted A Message Online Claiming He Was Responsible Doesnt Mean Its True. Theres Absolutely No Evidence Of Foul Play. This Is Simply An Internet Troll Taking Advantage Of A News Story. Now Get Yourselves Ready For The Concert.Charley Kept Her Mouth Shut. She No Longer Knew What To Think. Big T Had Launched An Investigation Into The Source Of The Message, But It Had So Far Come Up Blank. This Was Suspicious In Itself. Yet An Examination Of The Spotlight Had Pointed To Basic Mechanical Failure Of Its Clamp As The Reason For The Accident. The Fact That The Safety Chain Hadnt Been Attached Was Put Down To Human Error, Rather Than A Premeditated Murder Attempt. Nor Had There Been Any Reason To Suspect The Bus Crash Was Anything More Than An Accident. However, Following The Ominous Message, Charley Began To Wonder If That Was Really The Case.Hey, Its Not Just Ash Out There Onstage, The Bassist Reminded Them, Crossing His Arms Defiantly. Any One Of Us Could Be Hurt Or Killed. So We Have A Right To Say Whether We Go On Or Not.Fine, Said Terry. If You Dont Want The Gig, Well Get Another Bassist In.Well, I Hope He Wears A Crash Helmet! He Sneered.Terry, Youre Missing The Point, The Drummer Piped Up. We All Know About The Death Threats. Someone Has It In For Ash. He Directed His Drumstick At Ash, Who Sat Mute In His Chair, Staring Blankly At Himself In The Mirror As The Stylist Made The Finishing Touches To His Hair. Are You Willing To Gamble His Life, And Ours, Like This?There Is No Gamble, Said Terry. Ive Discussed This With His Manager. Someone Is Playing A Cruel Game, Thats All. Theyre Trying To Scare Ash, Intimidate Himsabotage His Career. And We Wont Let That Happen. Apart From The Threats Before The Tour, Its All Been False Alarms. The Crew Has Doublechecked Everything At This Venue. I Can Assure You, Therell Be No More Accidents On This T
