A/N: Okay, guys. Before I get started on the second chapter, I'd like to announce that I'm not taking song suggestions. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but I already picked the songs out for the Emotions to sing before I published "Karaoke Night". Also, I was looking at some drawings of "Inside Out" on Deviantart and I saw my request of the Emotions having a reunion with Sadness taken from "Sadness Spiral". I would like to give out a very big thank you to Craig T. Crocodile and I'd like to thank you guys for reviewing on my first chapter and now we're up to the second chapter! Are you ready to see what song Sadness will sing and pick next? Well, it starts right now!
Chapter 2
My Immortal
Sadness slowly went into the drawer and began looking through one of the CD's. She pulled one out, looked at it for a second and placed it back.
"Come on, Sadness! Just choose a song already!" complained Anger impatiently. "I don't have all night!"
"Hey! Have patience, Anger!" Sadness said sternly.
It didn't take that long for Sadness to finally decide what song she was going to sing. The teardrop pulled out another CD, walked over to the karaoke machine, opened the case and inserted the disc inside.
"So, what song did you pick, Sadness?" asked Disgust curiously.
The blue emotion picked up the microphone from the floor, turned to the four Emotions and responded, "Before I start this song, I'd like to dedicate it to a very special friend of me and Joy's."
"And who's that special friend?" asked Fear.
"You'll see." the teardrop said.
Sadness pushed the play button and a very sad, slow, piano ballad started playing. She then turned around to face them and took a deep breath.
"I'm so tired of being here. Suppressed by all my childish fears. And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave 'cause your presence still lingers here. And it won't leave me alone." sung Sadness sorrowfully.
Joy began to tear up, but she blinked back the tears.
"These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there's just too much that time cannot erase." Sadness sung. "When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears and I held your hand through all of these years. But you still have all of me…"
Suddenly, Sadness started having flashbacks of Riley's old imaginary friend, Bing Bong. The memories were Sadness comforting him after his rocket got thrown into the Memory Dump, helped Joy get him out of the Subconscious and most importantly, his own theme song. The teardrop gave a sniffle, but continued to sing.
"You used to captivate me by your resonating light. Now I'm bound by the life you left behind. Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams, your voice it chased away all the sanity in me." she sung sadly.
A tear rolled down from Anger's face, but he quickly brushed it away with his red, stubby thumb.
"These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there's too much that time cannot erase. When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears and I held your hand through all of these years. But you still have all of me…" sung Sadness, as she felt a lump in her throat.
All of a sudden, without warning, Sadness' eyes started filling with tears, but kept singing.
"I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone. But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along." she sung tearfully.
Sadness began to cry as she put her hands to her eyes.
"Aw, Sadness…" Joy said sympathetically with a sorrow look on her face.
"Are you crying, kid?" Anger asked with concern.
"No." Sadness sniffled. Then she sung, crying, "When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears and I held your hand through all of these years. But you still have all of me. Me, me…"
After the last note of the song, Sadness dropped the microphone and fell face first to the floor, sobbing.
"Wow. That was so sad." mumbled Fear shakily. "I think, I think I'm gonna cry..."
"Yeah, me too." sniffled Disgust in agreement. "That's like, one of the saddest songs we have ever heard in our life."
Joy walked over to Sadness who was crying on the floor and took her into her arms.
"Hey, it's okay, Sadness." whispered Joy sympathetically. "It's just a song."
The blue emotion looked up at the star with tears rolling down her face while Anger, Disgust and Fear joined in.
"I-It's not just the song, it's Bing Bong." she said in between sobs.
Joy suddenly knew why Sadness wanted to sing that song. It was for Bing Bong.
"You do miss him, don't you?" said Joy sadly.
Sadness didn't respond and continued crying into Joy's chest, still hugging her. Warm tears fell onto Joy's dress, but she didn't notice.
"Hey, no crying, okay, Sadness?" Fear said softly, as he rubbed her back. "You know I hate seeing you like this."
"There, there, Sadness. Just let it all out." said Disgust gently, as she held her near.
The teardrop gently pulled away from the hug away from Joy to look up at her face.
"I…" she tried to speak, but got cut off into quiet sobs.
"Shh…" Joy shushed quietly and preceded to hug her harder and snugger than ever before.
"We're all here for you, kid." Anger said soothingly, as he wiped away one of Sadness' tears with his bare hands.
Disgust looked up at Joy and asked sympathetically, "Can we get in the group hug?"
Joy gave out a sad smile and silently nodded. The Emotions gathered around Sadness and formed into a group hug.
A/N: Wow. That was like, one of the tear-jerking moments I have ever made! To be honest, I originally wanted Sadness to sing "Another Day in Paradise" by Phil Collins, but that song was way too sad and I always cry at it, so I chose "My Immortal" by Evanescence instead. Just to be clear, this was the album version, not the band version. Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter, even though it was very sad and please review, follow and favorite this chapter. FYI, when we return in chapter 3, we'll get to see Anger pick out his song to sing next.
THANK YOU & remember to review! *goes into the corner and starts crying quietly*
