IPod Challenge (ripped off of kenobigirlliz... Check hers out: Musical Musings Also ripped off of Siriusfan13... Check hers out:Lyrics and Magic):

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.

2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.

3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterward!

4. Do ten of these and then post them. ( I changed it to ten per chapter because they were so much fun)

Disclaimer: I do not own the songs or the characters written about here.

Dave hit again. And Again. "You're going down!" he shouted and aimed one last plasma bolt at the Morganian. Horvath had returned with a vengence, and it was up to Dave to stop him. "Get off my turf, boy." came the reply. Dave laughed. "Sorry. This is MY turf. Welcome to America." Then he blasted Horvath to smithereens

"Seriously?" Dave asked again. Balthazar turned with a deer-in-the-headlights expression. "Dave? What's up?" he asked. Dave stared. Balthazar had actually been gardening. And humming. "What on Earth are you doing?" he asked his master. About a split second before he laughed hysterically. Balthazar sent his apprentice flying with a burst of air before saying, "Veronica wants a garden, and she's got a black thumb. I was the son of a farmer, you know."Dave just shook his head and laughed- this time behind the safety of a shield. "Where's a camera when I need one?" he asked rhetorically. Balthazar gave him an evil look before saying, "You know, I know a spell to put memories on paper. The one with you getting hit with your Tesla Coils during practice comes instantly to mind..."Dave put his hands up in mock surrender. "Okay, okay, I get it!"

Balthazar looked bored. "Again."Dave shot him a look before trying the new spell again. And raised the circle a bit too high. He burned himself. "Hey! I didn't know it could do that!" he shouted angrily. Balthazar just shook his head and went back to reading his Incantus. "Again."Dave sighed and aimed a plasma bolt. And hit home. Now it was Dave's turn to grin evilly. "Gee, Balthazar. What was that about keep your guard up?"Balthazar smirked and said, "Dave, I'd watch out."

Dave turned just in time to see his Incantus hit him in the face. Then it was a playful sorcerer's fight until Veronica stepped in...

Balthazar looked at the sky as David started making a break for the lab. At that moment, the rain started coming down. The master laughed. Anything to subtly make fun of his apprentice. It was a "hot date night" with Becky, and Balthazar wanted them cornered in a safe place... Say the lab or Dave's apartment. Somewhere he could hide and memorize embarrassing facts about the night and pretend to know all. But Veronica had other plans. "Coming, Beloved?" she asked. Balthazar whipped around. "Remember that night when it was raining, and Merlin was off training one-on-one with Horvath?" she asked. Balthazar took her in his arms smiled. "How could I forget?" he asked. Somewhere, ancient music started playing and the happy couple began to dance in the rain, remembering past bliss and making it anew. Of course, the master still managed to find all about the date for future reference to use against his apprentice.

Lights were going off all around the lab. Dave smiled and added a subtle perfume smell and then left to shower before meeting Becky.

Becky heard the soft music before she saw the Christmas light-like balls of pure light. Dave entered then just as she sniffed out the flowery scent. "Wow, Dave!" she said, impressed. He laughed and brought her into their favorite spot- the Tesla coil cage. Then Tesla coil's started going off in tune to the couple's song that had played the first time Becky had heard the Tesla Music. This time, however, the plasma was more than blue. It was the color as the balls of light nearest to the coil. Rainbow light sang brightly as Dave kissed his girl friend.

Dave held his head in his hands. "What am I gonna do, Balthazar?" he asked. Balthazar wanted to have an answer, he truly did. But his true love never doubted his comittment. He doubted his relationship with Veronica was going to be much help with Dave and Becky.

"Um, call her?" he asked. Dave shook his head. "I've tried that. She just cries and hangs up."

Balthazar finally put his book aside. "Try going to her radio station. I could break her antenna for you."

Dave shrugged. "Whatever. Hey! I'll just corner her there! But I don't want her freaking out about me being a Morganian in disguise like that Williams girl."

Balthazar snorted. "I don't think that will be a problem. Why don't you just wait at that bench?"

Dave looked up. "Yeah! That's what I'll do! And then I'll woo her. Thanks!" He left. Balthazar shook his head. 'woo her'? Yeah, right. Try make her laugh. But whatever worked.

Please Remember Me by Tim McGraw

Balthazar took a deep breath as he flew off on the Chrysler Building's eagle. He was worried that his true love wouldn't make it in this new world without him, but he was positive she wouldn't make it if left by herself. He sighed as he came in sight of Battery Park. He patted the eagle and told it to wait nearby. He might need a quick get away. Then he stopped and smelled his last breath of clean air. Well, as clean as anything in New York was. Then he began to see Veronica kneeling by a wounded hawk, giving it life again. He saw her laughing at a spell of his gone wrong. He saw her look at him the last time he had seen her. "I'm sorry, Veronica. I'm doing this for you."

Then he closed in on Battery Park, allowing him only to think of the battle at hand. The last thought of her he allowed to distract him was hoping that Dave got the necklace to her. That she survived. And that his willful apprentice didn't come searching for him and get himself killed.

Then he pushed it all from his mind, maybe forever.

"A dragon? Really?" David cried as he dodged the monster. Balthazar would have laughed if the thing hadn't been killing people left and right. "Just kill it! You've done it once before!" he called. Dave shot him a glare before jumping away as the beast lit the area he had just been standing in on fire.

"If I survive this, you're doing the mind wiping!" he shouted, aiming at the dragon. The dragon roared as it was levitated. Balthazar very nearly laughed then. Very nearly. "Wrong spell!" he shouted as he contained everyone who had seen the thing.

Dave didn't dignify that with an answer as the beast finally got put on fire and then instantly pulled through a vacuum sweep.

Life is a Highway by Tom Chochrane

Balthazar was finally free from so many things. Veronica had finally been freed. His apprentice had accepted his true potential. He was free to age once more. But that didn't mean life was easy by any means. Really, how stupid could the Prime Merlinian get?

"Dave, I didn't warn you because to most clear-minded people- sane or insane- it would be obvious that setting fire to water would only set of smoke detectors. And call the fire department- though we really should get those uninstalled."

"Another Morganian, Dave? Where do you find these people?"

"I can't take much more of this.. this... this flu!"

"Veronica, love, was trying to see if the plexiglass could be broken really necessary?"

"I accepted the 'locked away for ten years' excuse. I tried to understand the 'recently brought back to life' excuse. But really? Ten sandwiches simply because you're coat has a minor rip in it that Veronica is currently mending seems a bit extreme." Dave said.

Balthazar looked a little guilty for a second before shrugging and digging in as Dave slapped his forehead and eating his two. Sorcery really did make one hungry.
