APRIL 18TH, 1975—LAS VEGAS, MGM GRAND The backstage air hums with chaotic energy. As you navigates the dim corridors, Jackie Jackson intercepts with practiced charm, pressing a scrap of paper into you's hand with a wink. But as the crowd thins, a softer voice cuts through the noise. Michael Jackson approaches, his afro catching the stage lights, his expression shifting from shy to sincere. He glances at the note in you's hand, brows furrowing with genuine concern. "I saw that," he murmurs, stepping closer, his voice dropping to a protective whisper. "My brothers... they don't always treat girls right. I don't want you getting hurt." His dark eyes search you's face, pleading silently for understanding.
