Introduction
Legend says that if you head out to the desert on a hot day, when the sun sits at the top of the sky and the winds are still...
You'll come to a crossroad you wont find on any map, there in the haze you'll find Ol' Scratch sittin' on an old guitar case pickin his strings...
Strike a deal with Ol' Scratch and what you desire most will be yours, and he'll take your soul in return...
You and your friends, an aspiring Blues band with little luck, all of you are fresh out of school and have little interest in a real job, preferring the route of a performer instead. Show after pitiful show with out any sort of break is starting to take it's toll on your pockets, just before you all decide to give it all up you go for one last shot, Las Vegas. If your band cant make it in Las Vegas then theres little chance you'll make it anywhere, but just how far will you go for your fame?
'Tis a mighty sad tale what happened to them kids, if im to re-tell it, I hope you dont mind if i start from the beginnin'. They started out in Nashville Tennesse, a group of teens fresh outta school with no jobs, no money, and big ambitions. They played show after show but thier music got no recognition down in Tennesse, not like they was wantin' anyways, but they continued on. Eventually they scrounged up enough coin and decided to try thier luck here in Vegas, but when they got here it was the same deal, small shows and no one to willing sign a record deal. A week went went by and no one heard from the kids, I had thought they had givin' up and headed home, until one day, out of no where they came back with a sound that you'd think came straight from an angels lips. They brought the blues back when it had almost died out completely, signed a record deal and made to the radio, then on to television not long after. They lived like stars for a while, everyone knew thier names, but what happened after that...

"You hungry? I think I have enough money to get you something cheap." As Veronica asked him he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, questioning her sudden generosity, but he wasn't about to take this kindness for granted and decided to agree instead of ask.
"Sounds good to me, but I've been craving steak all day, so how about you let me pay for you this once." Norm said with a smile in response to her well intended threat.
As he stood he removed his coat and tossed it over his shoulder, the mall was warm compared to the temperature outside and he was starting to regret not leaving it in the car. Once he had situated himself he turned back to Veronica. "C'mon im starving."

Slowly Kaiden sunk his hands into his pants pockets and casually walked towards the entrance of the building. His fingers twiddled around in his pockets aching to touch the smooth surface of some piano keys soon. He was going to eat lightning fast so that he could locate a place to play the piano.

"Someone is eventually gonna say something about you smoking all through the mall, you should atleast wait untill we find the others before we get ourselves kicked out." His steak was warm and juicy and he could barely wait to dig into it, he sat down across from Veronica, and the first thing he went for was the steak sauce in the middle of the table, pouring it all over his steak and potatoes. As he was eating he silently pondered where he might find Wyatt, Charlotte, and Kaiden, he knew he needed to find them but didn't feel like chasing them down so instead he decided to have the three come to him. Once he had finished with the steak, he wiped his mouth clean and removed his phone and harmonica from his pocket, he sent a text to Kaiden that read 'Come find me.' Once the message was sent he looked over to Veronica with a raised brow. "You think the others can hear me from here?" Placing the harmonica to his lips, he began with a low, soulful, bluesy stomp, and slowly worked his way up to a churning solo that sounded almost as if a old train were singing to the food court, which quickly gained the attention of everyone in the vicinity. He went on for a good five minutes, his instrument humming, and moaning as if the harmonica itself were crying. Norman had missed the sad sound of his old harmonica, it was as much a part of him as his arms or his legs. Norman had closed his eyes somewhere in the middle of his song, without realizing it, he was enchanted by his own tune.
Ending on an inhumanly long note, he took a moment to gather himself before looking back at Veronica with a proud grin. "Not bad right?"
