Bring on The Men
Neo walked into the empty theater. The huge opera theater. It seemed so empty without all the performers and the audience. Almost like the room was dead.
The mute jumped onto the stage and looked out into the seats were the people would sit. It was her day off, she could do whatever she wanted. Sure, she could go track down some people she didn't particularly cared for and put an end to them. She could go to the jewelry store and… pick up that necklace she had been eyeing. But that was business and she needed a break. So, she decided to visit a dream she once had, one that was over before it ever began.
When she was little, she dreamed of performing in opera's, musical's but it was impossible. It wasn't anyone's fault really, it was just a mean trick nature played on her. She was born mute, but she just couldn't help but admire the singers in those plays and musicals. The passion, the rage, the sorrow, that filled the room was so different, so beautiful, so seductive. She fell in love with the profession she could never be apart of. But that didn't mean she couldn't pretend every once in a while.
She pulled out her scroll, she synced the audio up with the speakers. She picked a song and placed the scroll in her pocket. She used her parasol like a can. And looked down as the song began to play. Then when the chorus began, she synced her lips as best as she could
There was a time, I don't know when
I didn't have much time for men
But this is now and that was then
I'm learning~
A girl alone all on her own
Must try to have a heart of stone
So I try not, to make it known
My yearning
I try to show, I have no need
I really do, I don't succeed~
Neo smirked. She twirled her parasol around before unfurling it and resting it on her shoulder and began to dance forward.
So, let's bring on the men
And let fun begin
A little touch of sin
Why wait another minute~
Step this way
It's time for us to play
They say we may not pass this way again
So, let's waste no more time bring on the men~
Neo stopped and rested her umbrella to the ground again, trying to look solemn as she lip synced.
I always knew, I always said
That silk and lace
And Black and red.
Neo used her power to make her look like she was wearing a red and black corset dress for a minute before going back to her original outfit.
Will drive a man right off his head
It's easy
So many men, so little time
I want 'em all, is that a crime?
I don't know why they say that I'm too easy
They make me laugh, they make me cry
They make me sick, so God knows why~
Then Neo started to dance.
We say, bring on the men
And let fun begin
A little touch of sin
Why wait another minute~
Step this way
It's time for us to play
They say we may not pass this way again
So, let's waste no more time bring on the men~
Neo collapsed on the ground in false weakness.
They break your heart
They steal your soul
Take you apart
And yet they somehow make you whole
So what's their game?
I supposed a rose by any other name.
Neo rose to her feet again and began to dance.
The perfume and the pricks the same~
As Neo danced. She sashayed around the stage spinning her parasol like a cane. For one brief second, she didn't feel like a killer or a thief. She felt like there was nothing else in the world. She felt like the center of the universe.
Sora walked by the theater and noticed music playing. Curiosity getting the best of him. He opened the door. The theater was empty, but on stage was one girl. Dancing to the music. Sora couldn't help but enter quietly. He got closer and closer to the Neo as she danced. Then he slipped and fell down a few steps. Neo stopped and looked. When Sora looked up, their eyes met. Feeling embarrassed Sora got up and started to run towards the exit.
But Neo, couldn't help but smirk. Before Sora could reach the top of the staircase. Neo fell from no where and sat on the top step, parasol open, spinning gently behind her. She stood up and closed the umbrella. As she held it with both hands she stalked forward. The music continued and even though she wasn't lip syncing any more. It seemed like the words were still coming from her as Sora took steps back.
I like to have a man for breakfast each day
I'm very social and I like it that way
By late midmorning I need something to munch
When they reached the bottom step Neo had Sora turn towards the seats
So, I ask over two men for lunch
Neo reached out and gently stroked a finger up Sora's neck, causing the boy to blush
And men are mad about my afternoon teas
They're quite informal I just do it to please
Those triple sandwiches are my favorite ones.
Neo placed a hand on Sora's chest and got closer for the next verse.
I'm also very, partial to buns.
Sora then got pushed into one of the seats, but Neo didn't leave him alone after that. She placed her umbrella on the armchairs acting as a brace. She leaned forward.
My healthy appetite gets strongest at night
My at home dinners are my men friends delight
When I invite the fella's over to dine.
They all come early~
Out of no where, Neo pressed a small, chaste kiss to Sora's lips. When she pulled away grinning Sora's face now represented a tomato.
In bed by nine~
With that, Neo backflipped back on stage and began to dance again.
So, let's bring on the men
And let fun begin
A little touch of sin
Why wait another minute~
Step this way
It's time for us to play
They say we may not pass this way again
So, let's waste no more time bring on the men~
During the last part of the performance, Sora gave a shy smile and when it was over. Neo blew him a kiss and in a flash of light, she disappeared.
You can't help what comes to mind when you're bored. If any of you care, I'm certain I'll continue these fun little one shots another day, but for now I'm out. And I have other fics that require my attention, not to mention my book I'm going to publish on Amazon. Enjoy!
