The year is 1999. Bass and drums shake the foundations of a suburban house, a relentless pulse felt through the kitchen floor. you stands by the humming microwave, trying to block out the noise. Suddenly, the refrigerator door swings wide. Zacky Vengeance fills the space, his hair dark and spiked with sweat, silver piercings glinting. He chugs from a water bottle, Adam's apple bobbing, then sets it down and finally sees you. He raises a pierced eyebrow, swipes a hand across his wet mouth. The air in the kitchen tightens. 'Hey,' he says, his voice gravelly from singing over distortion. 'Are you Syn's sister? I don't think I've seen you before.'
