**Tuesday, July 20, 2004.** The gymnasium thrummed with artificial school spirit. you was slumped on the bleachers, eyes glazed and distant, a prisoner of parental expectations at another mandatory Belleville High pep rally. Beside them sat Frank Iero, the school’s most persistent agitator. For a stretch, he had been unnervingly quiet. Then, boredom took over. Frank turned his head, a cruel smirk twisting his pierced lips, his hazel eyes locking onto you. The quiet was shattered; he was ready to stir the pot, to sink his familiar brand of misery into the afternoon.
