Clarissa had been shopping with her friends Kendi and Rachel. It was late since she had been at volleyball practice before going to the small mall that was a couple blocks from the school. Clarissa ,other wise known as Classy, was a junior. This fact, she had just turned seventeen a few weeks ago. When Classy had gotten home her mother was in another one of her suicidal fits again. Classy walked into the room with Kendi and Rachel in tow.

"Mom?" Clarissa asked walking up to her unstable mother taking the knife from her hands "what's wrong?" She asked handing the knife to Kendi. Kendi quickly put the knife in the drawer and locking it and handing Classy the key to the lock. Clarissa never felt very embarrassed about her mothers disorder around her friends, the girls had been with each other for as long as any of them could remember.

Classy's mom didn't say anything as Rachel helped Classy take her mother to her room. When they returned Kendi, as always, was in the refrigerator looking for even a morsel of leftover food of any kind.

Classy frowned knowing there wouldn't be much in the refrigerator so she spoke up. "Hey guys I am gonna go to the store and get mom some more pills and something to eat, I'll be back in a jiffy" she said with a wave and walked out the door. She hugged her light jacket closer to her when the wind hit her. Clarissa didn't look when she crossed the street. Right as Classy was about to hop off the curb she tripped and fell into the street as a large grey hound bus whizzed by. Classy screamed and barely making it across the street as a bus zipped by. Classy took a deep shaky breath. How could she have missed the bus? She stood up as a strange guy that haven't been there before walked up to her. Classy tried to ignore him and turned to walk away like she had been told to do several times.

It seemed a lot brighter that it had been walked over to the next street but the small store wasn't there, in its place was a liquor store that said ' no ID no Booz , No Drugs' . She looked around brushing some stray hair out of her eyes. This place wasn't familiar to her at all. Clarissa could hear music coming from the door next to the building she was standing in front of. It was hard rock music which told Classy something was opened the door slowly to see what was going on crowd was small but it didn't help that she had stage fright and she was standing on the back of a stage with a band quickly passed out from fright and excitement.

The band never stopped playing, since they hadn't noticed, but a few people in the crowd stopped cheering and stared at the girl laying on stage. The blonde man, who had been singing, turned around to see what people were looking at. Just like that! The band stopped playing, the singer went over to the girl and shaking her arm, trying to bring her back to consciousness. At that point Clarissa started to come to she blinked her hair was laying In her had a massive head ache from hitting her head on the hard floor.

"Wh-what the hell?" She said looking was dark and she could see someone that looked like her estranged father but he was much... quickly slapped him away signaling him to back off.

"Who are you?" She said accusingly her stomach dropped when she saw
the crowd staring at her all of team rather quiet or whispering something about her to their fellow rockers.
"Uh you alright?" One of the taller guys asked her as he held out a hand to slowly grabbed his hand and stood up eyeing them suspiciously.

"Come on" he told her as he lead her off the appeared to be the guitarist of the quartet grabbed a chair for her as one of the other guys told the crowd to wait a second while blondie asked her if she was alright.
"Yes I'm fine!" Clarissa said sitting down on the chair "just ...I'm soooo confused." She said looking around as the
guitar players walked off then finally the percussionist joined brushed her blonde hair out of her eyes.

"Uh are you?" She said unable to finish her question.

"Motley Crüe love " The bass player answered her.

Classy shook her head then looked back at him "so your Nikki Sixx?" She asked still not believing it. The guy nodded, his hair not swaying even in the slightest hinting as to how much hair spray he was using.
"Yeah , uh Vince helped you off the stage and..." Classy cut him off.
"I know who you are!" She said standing up " I'm related to Vince!" She said matter-of-factly. Clarissa wasn't sure how she was going to pull this was , in fact, his daughter, but how were they going to believe that? Also another question crossed her mind. How the hell did she get here? It was almost ten years before she was even conceived.

Clarissa looked at them to see there responses. Classy could see a lot of confusion "long distance" she decided to lie to them protecting them until they were almost sighed with relief when Vince nodded.
"Yeah how are we related again?" Vince asked suspiciously, a look of concern on his face. Clarissa could clearly see that he was trying to remember her but
remembering her would be like trying to remember someone who never existed.
"I'm your cousin Classy, well Clarissa " she thanked god that he named her after one of his cousins when he was still with her and her mother. Clarissa watched him slowly nod.

"I sort of got kicked out of home " She added looking down hoping to catch his soft spot since he too had been kicked out. It wasn't exactly a lie but it wasn't
the truth either.
"Well family can't stay out on the street " Vince said reluctantly, Clarissa could see his hesitation but he was inviting her to stay with him. That of which she had no room to deny.

"Okay" Clarissa said with a weak smile " thank you " she added as she looked over at Nikki again she knew about the drugs and alcohol plus she really didn't want to get involved with it. Clarissa was going to stand her ground and not drink till
she was of legal age. Clarissa Nikki Neil was gonna be a good girl while she was in this freaky ass time warp shit. She was also going to keep her promise of not doing drugs that she made to her father the first and last time she ever saw him where he knew who and where she was also going to keep the promise of absence. She was going to keep the last one for her own sake.
"Yeah well we gotta get back to the concert " Mick butted in. Clarissa nodded and stepped aside. They all walked on and she got wide eyed at someone grabbed her butt before they stared and blushed as Nikki winked at her as they started rocking out to ' Take Me to the Top'.
