Chapter 193: 193 – The Truth Ep 01

– Holly’s POV –

Staring at the screen of my laptop, I was furious.

How could this BlackVelvet guy have the nerve to make a video, or rather a docuntary, trying to slander and spread lies about my Dark Pistol?!

As the owner of the largest Dark Pistol fan club site, I followed the guys in the band in everything they did, and this wasn’t the first ti that so small artist had shown up to try and take advantage of the Dark Pistol hype.

It was always the sa story: small artists who couldn’t make it on their saw that Dark Pistol was doing very well and tried to attack them to get a little bit of fa.

With the group of other girls who also had fan clubs, and with the hundreds of thousands of followers we all had together on our fan club pages, it was easy to attack these small artists until they disappeared or gave up.

But this ti we had found a worthy opponent.

Although BlackVelvet was only a D-rank artist, he was very popular!

His Tube channel had 500k subscribers before the video he posted about the Dark Pistol, and now it has up to 600k subscribers!

The problem was that those 600k subscribers were real people!

All of his videos got over 300k views, with so vlogs even getting over 1 million views, which I had to admit showed that he had charisma.

And that left confused, why would an up-and-coming artist like this, who had a large and powerful fan base, want to try and ride the Dark Pistol hype?

Wasn’t he already growing fast enough to beco a B-rank artist like Dark Pistol in a few years?

Unfortunately for him, he was in our way, so last week the other girls and I tead up to attack this Black Velvet as hard as we could.

Despite a strong counterattack from the BlackVelvet fan clubs, we were bigger and managed to beat them in numbers.

The problem is that this didn’t stop BlackVelvet from posting the crappy episode one of his docuntary.

And looking at the 80,000 people who gathered to watch the release on his Tube channel, I was rooting for this docuntary to be bad…

10… 9… 8… 7… 6… 5… 4… 3… 2… 1…

At the end of the countdown, I saw the video scene change to a scene of a woman looking at old photos.

The woman was looking fondly at these photos, photos of a little girl holding a violin… maybe photos of herself?

[Ever since I was a child, playing the violin was everything to …it was where I found peace, where I could express myself, where I could have my voice heard, where I could get the attention I didn’t have at ho].

This woman’s voice erged as she explained what these photos were.

Suddenly the scene changed to an animation of the sa woman next to a little girl holding a violin.

[When I had my daughter, I saw myself in her and thought about making the violin as important to her as it was to …].

She said.

So the scene changed to the woman making the little girl practice for several days, with the sky in the animation changing rapidly from day to night to represent this.

[But as much as I showed her how good the violin was, how cool it was, how it could give my daughter good career opportunities, she never saw the violin the way I did…].

The scene changed to the woman alone watching her daughter playing with other things, much happier than the violin.

[And out of immaturity, I thought I should just insist that my daughter would enjoy playing the violin as much as I did at her age…]

With that, the scene cut to the woman being taped in so kind of interview as tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Suddenly the narration changed.

[For as long as I can rember, my mother has forced to learn the violin…]

The voice this ti was that of a girl my age, perhaps the little girl in the video?

The image changed from the cara recording the woman crying to an animation of a scene of the little girl trying hard to learn the violin while looking at her mother expectantly.

[But no matter how hard I tried… I never felt that I had that much talent, and my mother would get angry because of my mistakes…] The girl said in a trembling voice. [No matter how hard I tried, it doesn’t matter in the end…]

Hearing her say that, I felt a chill run through my body…

As a huge Dark Pistol fan, I had listened to their latest song ‘In The End’ until I’d learned all the lyrics and could sing it without thinking too much.

Then, when I heard the lyrics spoken by this girl, I quickly thought of the full lyrics and realized that they really fit this girl’s story.

Is it possible that this song was really made for this girl? A feeling of doubt began to rise in my chest.

‘No, the guys from Dark Pistol would never do sothing like that…’ I tried to calm myself as I watched the video again.

Unlike what I had planned with the other girls, where we would spend the whole video looking for lies and inconsistencies in what this docuntary was going to show, I didn’t even realize that I was so involved in this story.

The emotion that both mother and daughter were showing, the animation representation of everything they were telling about their story, it was all very beautiful and well done…

Not even BlackVelvet has appeared in the docuntary so far and I was completely hooked…

The scene in the docuntary changed, the animation showed the little girl growing up and the fights between her and her mother getting more and more frequent with ti…

[I didn’t understand what my mother wanted by teaching to play the violin, my mother didn’t understand that I only wanted her attention to be happy, while I didn’t care about the violin at all… and as a result, our relationship beca very strained…].

Suddenly, the scene that had been shown in animation turned into a live-action shot of the mother and daughter fighting, one yelling at the other, until the daughter ran crying into her room and the mother was left crying alone in the kitchen.

Their emotions seed so real…

Suddenly, the cara moved to the corner and showed a little boy with black hair looking at his sad mother and then at the stairs his sister had just climbed, disappointed.

His hesitation to speak to them was clear, several tis he opened his mouth to speak to them, but he didn’t know how to act, what to say…

It was incredible how much you could deduce from his performance alone.

[As ti went on, the fights beca less frequent, but so did our contact. I stopped talking to her, she started avoiding talking to …] The girl said.

Suddenly their voices ca at the sa ti.

[And we beca just two strangers living in the sa house…]

Hearing their voices in sync, for the second ti I felt my body shudder…you could feel the truth in what they were saying…it really happened to them.

Now the narrator changed again, this ti to a boy’s voice.

[It was hard… to see my mother and sister arguing at ho all the ti, and the worst thing was that I could see reason in both of them, but they couldn’t just sit down and talk and explain their points…].

The scene changed to the boy trying to talk to them, but they would just ignore him or start arguing with him without trying to listen or understand the other side.

[But then I thought… I’ve always loved music… why don’t I learn how to make a song to convince them like that?]

As he said this, the picture showed the boy selling so things he liked to buy a guitar.

Then it showed him learning to play the guitar by himself while watching videos on the Internet.

It showed him writing sothing in a notebook, possibly the lyrics to a song…

[Music is such a beautiful art, such a touching way to express your feelings, to show what you’re feeling, a way of speaking that cos from your soul… and I knew this would be the right choice].

As the boy said this, the image changed to him finally starting to play the song.

I imdiately recognized it as the lody of the song In The End, but in a slower and more dramatic way…

But instead of literally starting at the beginning of the song, the boy sang only the chorus in a low, soft voice, making sing along with him…

🎼🎶🎤

I tried so hard and got so far…

But in the end it doesn’t even matter…

I had to fall to lose everything…

But in the end it doesn’t even matter…

🎼🎶🎤

As he sang, you could see his sister listening on the other side of the door, tears falling from her eyes as she listened to the lyrics unfold.

When he finally finished singing the song, the girl opened the door, looked at him angrily, and ran past her mother in tears.

As soon as the mother saw her daughter running, she was shocked and worried, but didn’t know how to ask what had happened, showing how broken their relationship had already beco.

Without realizing it, I was really interested in that story, and my mind had pretty much accepted that the song was really telling that story.

As ti went by, the video showed how the relationship between the three of them beca confused for a while, until the boy managed to sort himself out with his sister and help her, and then he managed to talk to his mother so that the two of them could sort themselves out and the bad atmosphere in the house would end.

Seeing the two of them develop their relationship from sothing so bad to sothing so good was very good to watch.

Especially as the docuntary showed that the boy’s career as an artist was developing so fast that in less than 4 months he was even singing with famous bands!

I was surprised because I didn’t know he had such a short career!

In 4 months he went from an unknown artist who learned to play guitar to help his mother and sister’s relationship, to soone who was making a big splash in San Francisco, getting fans in bars, singing at weddings, birthdays, and even planning solo shows!

All in all, a quick summary that piqued my interest in learning more about him and following his career in the future.

But things went wrong when the mother and daughter were at ho with the mother practicing the violin in her garage studio and the daughter was shocked to see the song from her story being sung by another band and being promoted as their product…

Seeing her story, sothing so personal, being stolen by other people made her angry.

And at the end of the docuntary, the cara showed a recording, in the style of the Black Velvet vlogs, of a producer entering the boys’ dressing room and asking to be allowed to sing this song at the concert…

[Continue…]

When I realized it was over, I was completely shocked and lost, not knowing how to react or what to think.

Was I really wrong all this ti? I thought in shock.

When I read the comnts from other viewers of the video, I saw that there were more than 130,000 people watching it with , and in the comnts, everyone was outraged by what had happened.

Not at BlackVelvet for possibly lying about the origin of the song, but at this producer who obviously had bad intentions for him…

And as a Dark Pistol fan, I knew that this was the real producer of the guys, and that if they had the recordings of everything, it was very likely that what he said was true…

“What did I do?”
