*KNOCK KNOCK*
"Yamazaki-san, 5 more minutes before you go onstage" the crew uttered while knocking on his room.
"Alright!, can you call the guys over for me then?"
"Sure! Let me call them"
Inside the shabby worn-out backstage room, he can hear the roaring sound of the crowd singing to the song the current band was playing. He smiled, remembering the feeling of their first performance.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
"Ko, you were looking for us?"
"Huh?! Were you guys outside already? No need to keep acting formal guys, We've been together for 6 years now, Come inside."
"6 years huh, its been a long ride. I'm happy its with you guys."" He smiled and whispered to himself as he stood up to get the door
"I never thought in my whole life that I'd be able to reach this far. Thanks Guys."
*KNOCK KNOCK*
"Sir, 2 minutes before you go onstage, please be ready"
The room fell silent, everyone was holding back their emotions. They knew that this night would be their final performance. All the hard work, the Misunderstandings, the struggles, and the Memories they made all boils down to this.
Gently holding back their tears, everyone stood up and hugged each other.
"This is it guys! We made our dreams come true, now its time for us to explore other things."
"You make it sound like you wanted this."
Laughter bursted out through the whole room. Not a single regret was seen on their faces. Everyone cheered each other on as the crowd's cheers grow louder and louder as they walk closer to the backstage.
"Here to perform their last concert..." The announcer hyping up the crowd.
"Down By Four, be ready 5...4...3..." Staff member reminding them.
"DOWN BY 4! DOWN BY 4! DOWN BY 4!..."
*Badump Badump*
"Do you remember our first performance?"
"Where was it again?"
"Whaaaaaaaat?! How could you! I can't believe you"
A sudden rush of nostalgia kicked in as they finally reached the stage.
The crowd was going nuts.
"Mic Check, Mic Check... Thank you guys for coming here, It's been a long ride and we would like to thank YOU. Our fans, who've been there from the very beginning. If it wasn't for you guys, we wouldn't have been here today..."
