Eventually, the eggs were gone. The coffee had been drained (minus the one pot still immortalized in social media history). Autographs had been scribbled on everything from helmets to salt shakers. And somewhere in the madness, someone had duct-taped a “MARK FOR MAYOR” sign to the front door of Ruby\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was time to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The pack filtered out of the diner, full of food and laughter and the kind of happiness that could only come from completely unhinged public affection<\/em>. As they climbed aboard the tour bus, fans clapped and chanted from the sidewalk. Someone shouted \u201cWe love you, Thane!\u201d and another replied with \u201cWE LOVE ALL THE WOLVES!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The bus\u2019s engine rumbled to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And then\u2014like fate had coordinated it\u2014the fire truck pulled up alongside them.<\/strong> Lights blazing, sirens chirping a greeting. The fire marshal stood proudly on the sidewalk, clipboard tucked under his arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cEscort to the highway,\u201d he said with a grin. \u201cVIP treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thane blinked from the front lounge seat. \u201cAre we\u2026 being firetruck-escorted out of town?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gabriel grinned from behind the wheel. \u201cYup. Full send.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mark leaned into the aisle with a gruff sigh. \u201cWe\u2019re gonna break the internet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n And they did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fire truck took point, sirens warbling as it rolled down the boulevard, the Feral Eclipse bus cruising in its wake like royalty. Behind them? Dozens<\/strong> of fan vehicles\u2014minivans, motorcycles, convertibles with wolf ears clipped to the side mirrors. Every single one of them honking, waving signs, or blasting the band\u2019s music from cracked windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At every stoplight, crowds lined the sidewalks. Shopkeepers ran out in aprons to snap photos. People climbed onto benches and fire hydrants just to wave. Some were howling. Somehow, that part caught on.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Lindsay the waitress uploaded a clip of the procession to TikTok with the caption: Another post showed Thane leaning out the bus window, waving stoically, with the caption: The official Dallas Fire Department reposted it with: Inside the bus, the band stared out the windows in stunned, exhausted amusement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOkay,\u201d Jonah finally said. \u201cSo\u2026 is this what tour life<\/em> is now?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emily nodded slowly. \u201cThis is literally the best thing that\u2019s ever happened to me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gabriel reached for the horn and gave it a playful HOOONK<\/em>. The crowd responded by howling in unison<\/strong> like it was a full moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thane looked over at him, half-laughing. \u201cThis is going to get us banned from at least four more cities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI hope so,<\/em>\u201d Gabriel said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cassie grabbed a Sharpie and scrawled on the inside wall near the front window: Outside, as the fire truck peeled off and the bus finally merged onto the open highway, a single fan stood atop a parked pickup, silhouetted against the Texas sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He raised both arms in triumph and yelled, \u201cFERAL ECLIIIIIPSE FOREVER!!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The internet would never recover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Eventually, the eggs were gone.
