AN: This songfic is to the song "You're Going Down" by Sick Puppies and it takes place during the rumble. I breezed over some parts, so I hope it's not confusing. I hope you listen to the song either during or after you read this. It's from Two-bit's POV. I don't own these characters or the song.
Define your meaning of war
To me it's what we do when we're bored
I feel the heat coming out off of the blacktop
And it makes me want it more
Excitement tingled through my chest as I walked up the porch the Curtis' home. Just as I opened the door, they all flew out onto the lawn, doing cartwheels and back flips.
Because I'm hyped up, outta control
If it's a fight I'm ready to go
I wouldn't put my money on the other guy
If you know what I know that I know
God, I love the energy before a rumble. We are gonna kick some soc ass tonight! I took one last swig of my beer before joining in the commotion. The anticipation of getting to slam my fists into those bastards was almost too much to hold in.
"Hey, Two-bit, how come you like to fight?" Pony asked me.
"Shoot, everybody fights," I said like it was obvious.
It's been a long time coming
And the tables' turned around
Cause one of us is going
One of us is going down
I'm not running, it's a little different now
Cause one of us is going
Guess the pussies finally decided to show, I thought as I saw the soc's pull up to the lot.
One of is going down
Someone's gotta lose, I reasoned as I punched another soc in the head, and it's not gonna be us. It felt good letting the energy out.
Define your meaning of fun
To me it's when we're getting done
I feel the heat coming out off of the blacktop
So get ready for another one
Let's take a trip down memory lane
The words circulate in my brain
You can treat this like another all the same
But don't cry like a bitch when you feel the pain
Panicking just a bit when I started to get tired, I began to remember my reason for being here tonight and the hate kept me going. I hate that they think they can do anything and get away with it. I hate that they're the reason Johnny's in the hospital. I hate that Pony has to be scared-that all of us get scared but we can't show it because we have to be strong. Or we'll die. So they deserve this, I tell myself. This is my chance to give it to them.
It's been a long time coming
And the tables' turned around
Cause one of us is going
One of us is going down
I'm not running, it's a little different now
Cause one of us is going
They were holding in there, but we were going to win. I noticed a few of them scampering away.
One of is going down
The end is so close now.
This is hardly worth fighting for
But it's the little petty shit that I can't ignore
With my fist in your face and your face on the floor
It'll be a long time coming
But you got the message now
Cause I was never going
Yeah, you're the one that's going down
Another punch, another kick.
One of us is going down
I'm not running, it's a little different now
Cause one of us is going
"You're going down!"
One of us is going down
One of us is going down
And then they run.
