A/N: A weird little thing that's been zooming around my head since 18 first aired. I finally got around to writing it down.
Disclaimer: Shocking though it may be, I do not own Instant Star. I know, you never saw that one coming.
"The menace must be eradicated!" Mr. Harrison shouted. The crowd standing around him echoed their approval. "For too long this danger has been free to run around and hurt those we love, but no longer!" The crowd burst into cheers and began waving around their torches and pitchforks. "Tonight is the night we destroy the one who is truly dangerous to our beloved daughters. Tonight is the night Tom Quincy goes down!" The crowd of men that had been surrounding him once again burst into cheers. Mr. Harrison led the group out the door as they headed over to G Major.
-G Major-
"No Tommy! The song is fine! It doesn't need anything to be changed."
"Jude, listen to me. If you just change the chorus a little-" Jude tuned Tommy out. She had been marveling at how well she was managing today. She was successfully pretended that she hadn't had her heart stomped on by the very man right in front of her. She liked to think that she was really confusing him right now. Although she supposed that she should listen to his critique, (He really probably was right, but she couldn't let him know that) it felt much better to ignore him. To make him feel just the slightest bit of the frustration she was feeling right now.
"Jude? Jude? Earth to Jude. Are you there?" Tommy jolted her out of her thoughts.
"What? Did you say something?" Tommy groaned.
"Well, I had been hoping you were listening to my ideas for your song, but I rather doubted it. However, I did just ask you if you heard something. Listen." Jude briefly left her thoughts to listen as Tommy told her. There was a faint rumbling, and if they were in the grasslands, she might have thought it was a stampede.
"Yeah. Its sounds like a stampede. What do you think it is?" Jude asked, forgetting about her current anger at Tommy.
"I don't-" Mr. Harrison walked through the door.
"Hello Tommy. I just had a little meeting to hold with you. Its about that talk we had? I got a couple friends together so we could continue it." Tommy seemed to see something that worried him behind Mr. Harrison, because he paled, and began to run and scream out the other door.
"After him!" Someone shouted from behind Mr. Harrison. Jude stared in utter shock and confusion as a large group of men her dad's age and older began running after Tommy. What the Hell? She thought. Just as the last man left the room, she saw a paper fall from him pocket. Hoping it might enlighten her as to what this whole thing was supposed to be about she looked at it, and after she began reading it, she laughed. And laughed, and laughed, and laughed.
"Guess I won't need to kill Tommy for hurting me this time. Someone's going to do the job for me." She put the paper down and left. The paper was, in fact, a flyer, and it read:
Join the F.U.A.T.Q.
(Fathers United Against Tom Quincy)
I regret to inform that general public of father that there is a terrible threat against our daughters. A notorious heartbreaker, boybander Thomas Quincy has finally crossed the line. He has broken the hearts of more daughters than I really care to count. Please come to the meeting tonight at our founder, Mr. Stuart Harrison's (Father of two of the girls Quincy has hurt) home. The F.U.A.T.Q., otherwise know as the Anti-Tom-Quincy League, has decided enough is enough and it is time to finally eradicate this risk to our daughter's happiness.
