Hey This is my second fanfic for IMAA I based a lot of it from some songs i like. Hope you enjoy!!!
'I'm cold and broken, It's over, I didn't want to see it come to this, I wonder if I will ever see your face again. And I know I will find a way to shed the skin. It's simple I know I will suffer in the end'
The voice had been haunting Tony for a pretty long time now it kept on saying that, will it ever stop? The sentence was harsh though, it scared him. Not to mention he also kept writing it. It annoyed him, what did it mean?
' Fast I fade away-its almost over, Hold on, slow I suffocate-I'm cold and broken, Alone'
Tony groaned. He had enough of this little haunting thing. He had to find out where the words come from! He got up and checked his clock, it was 2 a.m.!! But still he went to his computer and typed what he heard in his head.
It was a song, a song he never heard, by a band he never heard of. What did this all mean? 'I'm cold and broken' Tony groaned once again. He had enough of it! 'Fast I fade away-its almost over' Stop!!! He had to tell someone. But who? Rhodey? No he would just tell his mom, then he'd be sent to some kind of shrink. Gene? No he wouldn't take it serious. Whitney? Nah she'll just make sure im always in a relaxed situation. Pepper? Maybe...
Ring Ring...
Pepper's phone went off. Pepper moaned and picked up her cell, it was Tony.
"Hello?" Pepper answered.
"Pepper? I'm freaking out!! you've got to help me!!! I swear I'm being haunted of some time of sort!! God! I'm going crazy!!!" Tony exclaimed.
"Tony, its two in the morning no wonder your going crazy!" Pepper replied.
"NO! I've kept on hearing a part of a song, I've never heard, by a band I never heard of!!" Tony yelled into the phone.
"And how long have you been 'hearing' this?" Pepper asked getting a little bit worried.
"About a month ago" Tony replied.
"AND YOU NEVER TOLD ANY OF US!!!" Pepper yelled into the phone. She was yelled so loud, you'd think she'd wake up her dad, bbut she didn't.
"Sssshhh! keep your voice down!!" Tony whispered.
"Fine, what do you keep on hearing?" Pepper asked.
"Um, I'm cold and broken, It's over I didn't want to see it come to this, I wonder if I'll ever see your face again. And I know I'll find a way to shed the skin It's simple, Iknow I will suffer in the end, Fast I fade away-It's almost over, hold on, slow I suffocate-I'm cold and broken, Alone"
"Hmm, strange" Pepper said.
"What?" Tony asked.
"Oh it's just I think it means something more than just a song" Pepper said.
"So do I" Tony said.
"You know I think I should wait till I get my full brain power, We'll talk about this tomorrow at school" Pepper stated.
"Uh, yeah, meet me in the library" Tony said.
"Yeah, see ya" Pepper said.
"See ya" Tony said.
'Alone' He shouldn't have said till tomorrow.
"Dude! Did you even get any sleep?" Rhodey asked when Tony came out of his room.
"No." all Tony said till they got to school.
'It's over, I didn't want to see it come to this' Tony sighed. He got out his iPod and started listening to the song he heard in his head. Tony started to feel colder and colder, even Rhodey said he had gotten meaner. Tony put his hand on his forehead, he had enough! He wanted it to end. 'Broken Messiah' What? Thats new. He entered the library, there was Pepper.
'Like the brightest star you shine through' Another one? Tony sighed and sat in the chair next to Pepper.
"Hey" Tony said.
"Hey" Pepper said.
"So, about the words" Tony said.
"Well, the band your brain chose is fuckin' awesome!" Pepper stated.
"Off subject" Tony stated.
"Oh right, hehe, um, well the words talk about being alone, maybe something might happen and you end up being alone?" Pepper asked unsure.
"Thats stupid" Tony stated.
"Uh, well then you come up with something" Pepper asked a little angry.
"I don't know, when it comes to my brain, I don't anything" Tony said getting up. "Thanks for your help even though it was useless."
"HEY! You asked ME for help remember?!" Pepper yelled. She followed him out of the library. "What the hell is wrong with you Tony?!"
"No offense, but I think you should pay attention more to your I.Q. than on me, sweetcheeks" Tony said leaving Pepper as angry as hell.
"RHODEY!!" Pepper yelled.
"Hey Pepper" Rhodey said.
"Do you know why Tony is acting like a jerk?!" Pepper yelled to him.
"Huh?" Is all Rhodey could say. Tony a jerk? To Pepper? Never.
"He said that I needed to work on my I.Q. other than focusing on him!" Pepper yelled.
"Hm, well maybe he's angry with you?" Rhodey said trying to reason out the situation.
"NO! He was fine one second, next second he was a jerk!" Pepper exclaimed.
"Is there something I'm missing?" Rhodey asked.
"Maybe..." Pepper whispered.
"Then?" Rhodey asked.
"Well, he called me at 2 a.m. and he said he was going crazy because he kept on hearing voices in his head saying a part of a song he never heard of, by a band he never heard of, We said it was better to talk when I had a good night rest, and well we were at the library and then I thought of something, then he said it stupid, and the next you know he saying about the I.Q. thing" Pepper explained.
"How long has he heard the voices?" Rhodey asked.
"A month or so he told me" Pepper answered.
"A MONTH!!" Rhodey exclaimed.
"I know thats how I was" Pepper answered.
"Well where is he now?" Rhodey asked.
"I don't know" Pepper said.
"Great, he most likely skipped" Rhodey said " Come on, we're going to the lab see if there"
'I wonder if I will ever see your face again' Tony banged his haed on his desk. He knew what he said to Pepper, it came out, but it felt like he wasn't the one saying it.
"No offense, but I think you should pay attention more to your I.Q. than on me, sweetcheeks" Tony groaned. He felt cold, and alone. It was what Pepper said. He went over to his computer and put the song on, he kept on putting it louder and louder. The louder it got the colder he felt. The more alone he felt.
'Broken Messiah'
Louder.
Colder.
Louder.
Alone.
'Would you believe me if I said I was sorry? The question wasn't ment to hurt, it was just my fear of losing you'
'I will suffer in the end'
Tony started to get dizzy.
'When I asked you believe me, and never let go'
'You're the reason I need to fight'
'Slow I suffocate-I'm cold and broken'
'Broken Messiah'
Tony fell to the ground, then all he could see was black.
Tony heard a voice, it was angelic. It sounded worried. He tried to tell the voice not to worry, but he couldn't. Somehow he knew mothing will ever be okay. He saw a light in the darkness and started walking towards it.
'You're the strength I need to fight, You're the reason I still try, I'm the moth and you're the light, use these so I can fly'
"TONY!! PLEASE WAKE UP, TONY!!" the voice yelled. Tony felt happy in the light, he saw his dad and his mom, he didn't want to leave.
"Son" Howard said.
"Yeah Dad?" Tony said.
"Go back, go back to her" Howard said.
"But, I'm happy" Tony said.
"You still need to live life, son, and you need to live it with her,and your friends" Howard replied. "When it is time we will meet again, but now is not the time, go live your life, make a difference, a difference I couldn't make" And with that said Tony left and ran to where the voice is.
"PEPPER!!, PEPPER!!" Tony yelled. "OH DEAR GOD, PEPPER!!!"
Tony's blue eyes soon opened, and was greeted by a hug from Pepper.
"Pepper sorry, I didn't-" 'Would you believe me if I said I was sorry?'
"Shut up, I don't care!!" Pepper yelled. Tears where streaming down her cheeks. "All I care about is that your alive!!"
'Like the brightest star you shine through, Pepper, baby you make me fell so alive, I've got the purpose once again'
'And we both go down together, We'd stay there forever, just try to get up, I'm sorry this wasn't easy, when I asked you believe me and never let go'
'Messiah'
Tony hung on to Pepper and he never let go.
"Promise me you won't let go, Pepper" Tony whispered into Pepper's ear.
"Yeah, I'll never let go" Pepper whispered back. Tony planted a soft kiss on her lips.
"Is it a sin?" Tony whispered into Pepper ear.
"Yes" Pepper whispered back.
"Then give me my sin again"
Well that was hard work!! Guess where I took the ending part from!!! Yes, I got from Romeo and Juliet!! I was watching the 'modern' one, but they don't talk modernly. Anyway, here are the songs I used:
'Im cold and broken It's over I didn't want to see it come to this...' -Fade Away by: Breaking Benjamin, Dear Agony
'Like the brightest star you shine through...You're the reason I need to fight...' -Ashley by: Escape the Fate, This war is ours.
'And we both go down together, We'd stay there forever...' I'd hate to be you when people find out what this song is about by: Mayday Parade, A Lesson in romantics.
'Would you believe me if I said I was sorry?' -Between you and I by: Every Avenue, Shh just go with it.
