Disclaimer: *sigh* I don't own Rock & Rule, sadly. Nelvana owns R&R. But since they're so disappointed in the film and ignore its existance, can I have it? :D

And I don't own the lyrics of the song. It belongs to Joan Jett.

16-year-old Janet Swagger sat on top of the amp in her room, tuning her guitar to find the right sound to come out of it. In a few hours, she was going to make her debut as a singer like her mother, Angel. She brushed a blonde lock of hair out of her face and kept twisting the knobs at the end of the guitar to tune it. The young soon-to-be-rocker had been all over the media growing up. Rumours were always spread, such headlines as "Angel's no Angel?" and even "Careless Rockstar Mother Takes Child Away from Father." None of those headlines were true and Janet hated every lie the magazines spit out. But of course once they found out who her real father was, the conspiracies would never stop coming.

She never knew her father. Of course, she knew his name, but Angel told her bad things about him and about how he was an obsessed Satanic psycho. But that was basically all Janet ever heard about her father, the infamous Mok Swagger.

Janet had been born with her father's cat genes. Thankfully she had some modifications with her genetics, and it was a good thing she didn't look as strange and slightly hideous as her father. Her eyes and hair colour closely resembled Angel's. Her hair was cut short and she always wore leather clothes. She was a stubborn girl, that was for sure.

Angel came into her daughter's room and smiled at her when it was time. "Hey Jan. Ready to make yourself known to the rock world?" she asked.

Nodding curtly and standing up, Janet put the guitar strap around her and held her guitar delicately. "Yes'm. They're not ready for Janet Swagger," she said, smiling greatly. She heard Mylar dismiss the last group after they finished, and he then introduced Janet, so she figured that was her cue. She grabbed her guitar and walked on stage, strumming her guitar when the curtain lifted. Angel had to remind herself to thank Dizzy and Stretch for being Janet's back-up instrumentalists.

Janet grabbed the microphone and started singing. "I think of you every night and day You took my heart and you took my pride away...I hate myself for loving you, Can't break free from the things that you do, I wanna walk but I run back to you that's why I hate myself for loving you!"

Angel watched her daughter proudly from backstage. And she was good if Mylar didn't cut the curtain by now. As her daughter finished singing, she bowed and she, Dizzy, and Stretch got off stage. Janet hugged Angel.

"Mom that was the best feeling ever!" she exclaimed. Angel chuckled and patted her daughter's hair.

"And we had a full house too!" Stretch exclaimed, giggling.

"What say we all get ice cream?" Dizzy suggested. Everyone agreed and they headed out, but Angel caught sight of an upcoming concert poster with a huge M in the center, right under the letter were the big red lips of...No. It couldn't be him! He had to have been still in the other dimension! There was no way he could be back! Angel felt a very bad feeling in the pit of her gut, but she just shook her head, trying to rationalize the poster. Maybe it was from years ago and it wasn't put down. But then again, it looked fairly recent...

"Angel! You coming?" Stretch called from the car. Angel snapped out of her reverie and looked over to them.

"Oh. Yeah! Sorry, I was just side tracked. I thought I saw...a dog eat a pigeon." The blonde rocker quickly went over to her group and daughter and got into the back seat next to Janet, who was fiddling with her bracelet. Stretch stepped on the gas and began leading the way towards the ice cream parlor.

After having some delicious ice cream, the group left the parlor and decided to go for a walk. It was a quiet evening in Ohmtown. Angel had pushed what she saw earlier to the back of her mind. Maybe she was just hallucinating. Janet was playing some game on her video game console, its 8-bit music blaring in poor quality. Stretch watched Janet play with interest. He hadn't outgrown his love for video games.

All was fine until the group walked past a giant telescreen in town, many Ohmtown residents had their eyes trained on it in interest, and some with fear. "What's going on?" Dizzy asked some mouse girl.

She turned to look at him, eyes wide in an unreadable expression. "It's Mok! He's come back for another tour!" she said excitedly, pointing to the screen. Dizzy blinked, unbelieving, then he and the group (minus Janet) looked at the telescreen. They were all shocked.

"But...but we defeated him sixteen years ago! How is he back?!" Dizzy demanded to no one in particular.

"Oh no, he'll probably come find us and heck us!" Stretch said, shaking on the spot. Janet rolled her eyes.

"Stretch. It's not a heck. It's a hex. How many times do we have to tell you?" she asked, annoyed, eyes not leaving the game. Angel was too shocked and frightened. But of course she said nothing, her eyes narrowing in anger. Her fists clenched and unclenched tightly.

"Yessiree!" said the announcer on the telescreen, "Mok the Magic Man has returned from a long hiatus for his revival concert, Demon in the Black at the Ohmtown power plant in two weeks! Tickets go on sale now!" Then an image of Mok's evil face flashed on the screen, a smirk playing on his lips. Angel felt like he was mocking her. She screamed and shattered the telescreen.

"He can't be back!" she shouted, still in denial. Dizzy came over to Angel.

"We're just as stumped as you are. But we just have to defeat him again somehow," he reassured Angel.

"M-maybe he's seen the error of his was and came back good?" Stretch suggested, his voice shaking.

"Get serious," Dizzy said flatly to Stretch. Janet looked up.

"What's the big deal? Maybe he's moved on and isn't out for revenge. You never know," she sighed, shrugging.

"I don't think it will be like that, Jan," Angel told her daughter, obviously unsettled by this recent development. "Now come on...let's all go home for the night..."

Stretch drove everyone to their respective homes and then his own. Janet fiddled with her guitar strap as she walked into the small house she shared with her mother. Angel quickly shut and locked the door.

"I'm going to bed mom," Janet said, yawning and heading into her room that was down the hallway. Angel nodded weakly. Then the telephone rang. Angel jumped at first, then answered it with a quiet, "Hello?"

"Hey Angel!" It was Mylar. "Your daughter Janet? All the makings of a great star like you!" he said happily. Angel blinked in confusion.

"Wait...I'm sorry, I'm in a bit of a funk. Could you elaborate?" she stammered, twirling her finger with the curly phone cord.

"I'm saying that I loved her performance! And so did a lot of the club patrons!" Mylar continued. "She has great potential to become a big star like your band! I just need her signature on the contract I made so she can get started!"

"Really?" Angel asked, happy. "That's wonderful, Mr. Mylar! How soon can she perform?"

"Well after she signs my contract, I've got a show for her booked for next week. It'll be an even fuller house, and maybe some famous faces! Always start out your first concert small! Well, yours wasn't, but...still!" Mylar said. "Can you bring her by tomorrow so we can go over the contract and she can sign?"

"Sure!" Angel said, forgetting her fear of seeing Mok earlier. "I'll bring her by first thing in the morning!"

"Faaaaabuloso!" Mylar exclaimed. "Ta-ta, Angel!" And he hung up.

Angel grinned widely. Her daughter was growing up so fast. And now she was going to become an official singer, and that was going to be wonderful.

A/n: So I am no longer sure if this will be a few short chapters or not XD I'm digging the storyline already. I imagined Janet as a blonde version of Joan Jett, to be honest. Well...looks and voice wise. I wanted to show Janet's show start in this chapter. But worry not, your favourite "wrinkled cat man" will appear next chapter! And when the start of the chapter said "she was going to make her debut as a singer", that meant it was talent night. She was going to show what potential she had and whether or not Mylar would add her on under her own contract to become professional, I just had to clear that up because I'm too lazy to go in and change that. XD
