Chapter Two
"Whoa, Slade?" Robin echoed Blackfire.
"Yes. Slade. Got a problem with that?" Blackfire glared at him.
"Um, no." Robin backed away.
"I do." Slade stood up like he was court.
"Here we go..." Raven shook her head.
"I am not singing with that kid!" Slade burst.
"I'm not a kid!" Robin protested.
"Wow, your stupid." Slade retorted.
Robin glared at him.
"Hey, guys?" Beast Boy spoke up. "Can we all pretend that we like each other? No enemies? I mean, that's the whole reason why I invted Slade into this thing."
Robin and Slade glanced at each other. "...Fine..."
Slade walked up onto the stage.
"Okay, I have your song all picked out," Cyborg said. "Smile."
Robin and Slade gave Cyborg demented smiles.
"Okay, I think it would be better if you didn't, never mind..." Cyborg muttered to himself.
"That's it," Beast Boy smiled. "Pretend your brothers."
Robin and Slade each took a step away from each other.
"Or friends..." Beast Boy took the brothers out.
Robin and Slade slowly took their steps back to each other.
"Very nice!" Beast Boy smiled again.
"Are we ready?" Cyborg asked.
"Is the world ready to see Robin and Slade sing karaoke together as if they've been friends their whole lives?" Raven asked. "Probably not."
Cyborg cast a weird glance at her. "Start..."
Robin:
Oh, it's a windy and sunny day
And I can hear the faint sound of the distant waves
The past weeks have been going by so fast
It's all the same, the bright sky and shinging sun
I have a feeling it's gonna be a fun day
Oh, it's a windy and sunny day
The many summers and many great games
Guess it's another trouble-free day
Our playground's so huge, we don't know where it ends
Feels energetic and groovy
Everything's cool, it's excellent
Slade stared at the lyrics. "What the he--?"
Slade:
Everyday's a new beginning, yeah!
Robin:
We don't know who we're gonna meet today
Slade:
The more I want, the less I can get
Robin:
Keep walking for a new tomorrow
Both:
But I guess I'm happy now gonna set my heart free
Now I've got nothing to worry me, come on!
Let's just get up go, go, go, go!
"Is it just me, or does this song seem a little weird for them?" Starfire asked.
"I'm making Slade suffer, who cares?" Blackfire responded.
Robin:
Hey big guy
Slade:
Hey little guy
Robin:
Can you tell me who came first
Slade:
Sorry, but I don't know
Both:
We are simply natural
Okay, all you have to do is sit up, look left, right, up, and down
"Nope. The world's not ready." Raven replied to herself.
Robin:
Hey big guy
Slade:
Hey little guy
Robin:
Can you tell me what's inside
Slade:
Sorry, but I don't know
Both:
We are simply natural
We present you with a gift--Welcome to our Paradise
"This has to be the weirdest song I have ever sung in my entre life." Robin whispered to Slade.
"What other songs have you sung besides the Move Along one?" Slade asked. "Do you sing in your room every night or something?"
Slade:
What'd you think about the incident?
Robin:
You always take me for granted
Slade:
I am asking you as a first step
Robin:
You answer first 'cause I asked you first
Slade:
You and I are friends for all of time
Both:
Tell me how you feel
But you know I can't resist that smile on your face
Robin:
Happy happy Muy Amable!
"What incident?" Robin asked.
"Don't change the subject," Slade said. "Are you actually planning on becoming a singer instead continue the hero stuff?"
"Shut up!"
Robin:
Hey big guy
Slade:
Hey little guy
Robin:
Can you tell me who came first
Slade:
Sorry, but I don't know
Both:
We are simply natural
Okay, all you have to do is sit up, look left, right, up, and down
"This is a long song." Terra said.
"I know it." Beast Boy went over to Cyborg.
Robin:
Hey big guy
Slade:
Hey little guy
Robin:
Can you tell me what's inside
Slade:
Sorry, but I don't know
"Did you have to pick a song this long?" Beast Boy asked.
"It's over in two seconds." Cyborg replied.
"The song is 4 minutes and 2 seconds."
"And the 4 minutes past and now there are two more seconds left."
Both:
We are simply natural
We present you with a gift--Welcome to our Special Paradise
Where it all comes down to just one little thing
Love
"See?" Cyborg said. "That's it."
"Okay, okay..." Beast Boy left.
"Are we done?" Slade asked.
"Yep." Blackfire yelled.
"Good!"
"I actually had fun singing that with you." Robin admitted.
"Me too. But I'm still going to fight you when this is over." Slade ruined the moment.
"Who's next?" Beast Boy asked.
"Who hasn't gone yet?" Cyborg asked.
Terra raised her hand.
"Oh?" Beast Boy got confused. "I thought we had enough people to do duets?"
"We do, Dummy." Terra rolled her eyes.
"Then who's--"
"You." Terra dragged him up on the stage.
"Oh, yeah! My bad!" Beast Boy smiled.
"Okay, I have the perfect song for you two!" Cyborg got excited.
"Oh, great..." Blackfire muttered.
"This is going to go by fast." Raven added.
I
tried to find the meaning of life
Somebody told me I was looking
for you
And now I know whatever I find
There is nobody who
can do what You do
In so many ways, in so many days
When I
was looking for the way to Your heart
But I wouldn't see
The
way I could be
Somebody loving You for who You are, oh yeah
"This a good song for them." Robin commented to Cyborg.
So
why does the rain fall down And deep inside with all that
I have
Who causes the sun to rise each
morning
Why did it take so long
To give you my heart
When
You gave me the meaning of life
I'm gonna love You more than ever before
I didn't know
the life that I had
Would only show me how I needed You more
In
so many ways, in so many days
When I was looking for the way to
Your heart
But I wouldn't see
The way I could be
Somebody
loving You for who You are, oh yeah
"This is making me gag..." Blackfire stuck her tougue out.
So
why does the rain fall down
Who causes the sun to rise each
morning
Why did it take so long
To give you my heart
When
You gave me the meaning of life
"I like this song. Will you sing it with me, Robin?" Starfire asked.
"Oh, now I'm really gonna hurl..." Blackfire leaned over her chair.
You
understand me
You know that I need You
Your love I'm feeling
inside
And I won't deny the feeling when I
Begin to
understand the way You feel
For me
So
why does the rain fall down
Who causes the sun to rise each
morning
Why did it take so long
To give you my heart
When
You gave me the meaning of life
"Alright, your done." Cyborg shut off the machine.
"This whole karaoke night is done," Beast Boy looked sad. "We can all go back to being enemies again."
"Well, it was fun while it lasted." Cyborg said.
"Yeah..." Raven looked at everybody. "I'll be in my room now." she left.
Everyone left except Slade and Robin.
"Just before we start to hate each other again, do you want to sing another song?" Robin asked.
Slade walked up on the stage. "Sure."
Robin turned on the karaoke machine. "I have to go through all these songs?" he asked.
"What?" Slade asked.
"Nothing," Robin replied an just hit the random button. He went up on the stage. "Ready?"
"Yep." Slade answered.
Give
it your all girl, give it all ya got,
You can take a chance, and
take your best shot,
Say what you want girl, do whatcha do,
He's
never gonna, gonna make it with you..
Your pullin' petals of a
flower tryin' to getcha way,
Keep pullin' til its says what you
wanna say,
Girl you can pick a field full of daisies,
But he'd
still be my baby,
And I know you can hardly wait til i'm away from
him,
He instinctively, I know what your thinkin',
You'll be
givin' him an open invitation,
But my baby won't be taken
in...
(nooo..)
"What song did you pick?" Slade asked.
"I have no idea..." Robin replied.
You
can pout your cherry lips,
Try to tempt him with a sweet kiss,
(sweet kiss)
You can bat your pretty eyes,
He ain't got his
hands tied..
No chains to unlock, so free to do what he
wants,
He's into what he's got,
He loves me, he loves you not,
"He Loves Me He Loves You not." Robin stated.
"Now don't tell me you know that because Raven sings it?" Slade asked sarcastically.
No
matter what you do, he's never gonna be with you,
He's into what
he's got,
He loves me, he loves you not...
You're the kinda
girl thas always up for do or dare,
Only want him just because
he's there,
Always lookin for a new ride,
The grass is greener
on the other side,
You're the kinda girl who's not used to hearin
no, (no)
All your lovers try to take you where you wanna
go,
Doesn't matter how hard you try,
Your never gonna get with
my guy..
"Or is it you singing in your room wanting to ecome a singer again?" Slade added.'
"I told you to just shut up about that..." Robin glared at him.
No
chains to unlock, so free to do what he wants,
He's into what hes
got, (and that's me)
He loves me, he loves you not,
No matter
what you do,
He's never gonna be with you, (with you..)
He's
into what he's got,
He loves me, he loves you not...
(doesn't
matter what you do, hes never gonna be with you)
"I swear, Beast Boy, I didn shut off the karaoke machine." Cyborg walked in to see Robin and Slade singing together.
Beast Boy followed him. "Then how come it's on?"
Give
it your all girl, give it all ya got,
You can take a chance, and
take your best shot,
Say what you want girl, do whatcha do,
He's
never gonna make it with you..
You can pout your cherry lips,
Try
to tempt him with a sweet kiss, (sweet kiss)
You can bat your
pretty eyes,
He ain't got his hands tied..
"Cyborg? Hello?" Beast Boy asked when he didn't answer.
Cyborg grabbed Beast Boy's head and turned it to look at Robin and Slade.
"What are you...?" Beast Boy saw Robin and Slade and his mouth dropped.
No
chains to unlock, so free to do what he wants,
He's into what he's
got,
He loves me, he loves you not,
No matter what you do, he's
never gonna be with you,
He's into what he's got, (take your best
shot..)
He loves me, he loves you not...
Robin noticed Beast Boy and Cyborg watching them. "Slade?" he whispered.
Slade kept on singing.
No
chains to unlock, so free to do what he wants,
He's into what he's
got, (and that's me)
He loves me, he loves you not,
No matter
what you do, he's never gonna be with you, (he's my guy)
He's into
what he's got, (and that's me)
He loves me, he loves you not
"Slade?" Robin pushed him.
"What? I'm trying to sing here!" Slade yelled.
Cyborg turned off the karaoke machine. "The song's over anyway."
Slade's jaw dropped now. "Robin, why didn't you tell me we had an audiance?"
"I did." Robin replied.
Beast Boy continued staring at them. "You two were singing like you were brothers?" he got confused and left. "I don't even wanna know..."
Ann: The last song I don't know if it was requested or suggusted, so I did it anyway. Thanks, Cat! R&R please everybody!
