Me: Finally a musical chapter! Sorry but I just love Disney songs. Big thanks to alainaGee for reviewing it means a lot. I own only Auertisse, Jasiri, Artemis, Apolla, Beastboy, Beastia, Magpie, Luna, Strike, Wasp and Hex. Now onto the fic!
"Apolla have you seen my hair brush?" Artemis asked with the worst case of bed head ever.
"No I haven't yahh what happened to your hair?" Apolla said as she rushed to her sister's side and inspected the tangled rat's nest.
"I have no clue. I woke up this morning and this is how it was." Artemis said as she was shoved onto Apolla's bed as Apolla grabbed her own hair brush.
"Somehow I get the feeling Beastia and Beastboy are behind this." Apolla said as she tackled the rat's nest with the precision of a professional hair dresser.
"Same. Wow you really did a good job." Artemis said when she saw her hair was again silky smooth and had its slight curl and wasn't tangled anymore.
"Why thank you. So I was thinking you, me and Wasp could do a song together tonight." Apolla suggested with a hopeful smile.
"Depends on the song." Artemis said with a smile as she had an idea of what song Apolla wanted to sing.
"Forget about Love?" Apolla asked hopefully as Artemis nodded her head at the choice.
They would always perform the song when they were little kids and one time Artemis and Wasp accidently kissed but didn't act on said kiss.
"Sweet! I'll get the costumes!" Apolla said happily only to realise she had to play Iago.
"Wait Wasp already said yes?" Artemis asked confused.
"Of course!" Apolla said slightly less happily but still happy.
"Well alright then." Artemis said as she got out of her sister's way.
Apolla did theatre but Artemis not in any life time. But both twins loved to sing.
"Hey sis!" Beastboy said smiling as he approached his sister.
"Hey bro! You gotta check this out." Beastia said as she showed her brother a video of Beastia messing up Artemis's hair with scary precision.
"Dude that's hilarious!" Beastboy said while clutching his stomach from laughing.
"What are you two laughing at?" Magpie asked as she appeared out of nowhere.
"Yahh! Magpie don't do that!" Beastia said as she gripped her chest above her racing heart.
"I was wondering if you two have thought about what you're going to sing tonight." Magpie said in a monotone just like her mom's.
"Well we were going to ask you if you'd like to sing with us." Beastboy said with a cheesy grin on his face.
"And what song did you have in mind?" Magpie asked dryly.
Karaoke night in the tower was required of the Teens.
"I Just Can't Wait To Be King." The twins said in unison.
"So long as I'm Zazu I'm in." Magpie said with a trace of good humour.
"Deal." The twins said happily as they dragged Magpie to get ready.
"Oh perfect!" Luna said as she finally found the right outfit to wear for karaoke night.
She was singing Colours of The Wind and decided on a Native American dress like Pocahontas wore.
"Now all I need to find is the face paint." Luna said excitedly as she flew out the room to borrow some from Apolla.
"Ah perfect." Strike said as he finally found enough blue face paint.
He was singing Never Had A Friend Like Me from Aladdin and wanted it to be perfect. Mainly because the prize for the best song was a day off from superheroing.
"Now to get the powers." Strike said with a mischievous smile as he went to find Auertisse.
"There is no way I'm wearing this." Artemis said from behind her bed room door as Apolla waited on the other side.
"If I have to wear this then you have to wear that." Apolla said as she resisted the urge to scratch.
She was wearing a dress made of red and blue feathers, yellow heels and red feathers in her hair. All in all she looked alright.
"Fine." Artemis said as she exited the room.
She was wearing the exact same outfit as Jasmine with the earrings and everything.
"Man this thing is itchy." Artemis said as she also resisted the urge to scratch.
"I know." Apolla said as she led Artemis to the common room where everyone was waiting.
Magpie was in a dress made of blue feathers with black tips and orange heels while Beastia and Beastboy were dressed like lions. Luna was dressed as Pocahontas, Strike as Genie from Aladdin and Wasp as Aladdin.
"And I thought I looked ridiculous." Apolla said under her breath when she saw Strike.
"Okay kids first up we have Luna singing Colours of The Wind." Auertisse said as she MCed the contest.
It was her turn as the other parents watched from the side-lines.
"Thanks Aunt Aura." Luna said as she got on stage.
The stage was set up by Auertisse to save time.
"You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other,
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or let the eagle tell you where he's been
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind
Can you paint with all the colours of the wind
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
Need to paint with all the colours of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all the colours of the wind." Luna sang in a sweet voice that put sugar to shame as she put as much emotion as she could into the song.
Some of the others were almost moved to tears by the emotion in the song.
"That was beautiful. Up next is Artemis, Apolla and Wasp singing Forget About Love." Auertisse said into the mike her voice a little thick.
Artemis, Apolla and Wasp got into their positions and the music started playing.
"Forget about that guy
Forget about the way you fell into his eyes
Forget about his charms
Forget about the way he held you in his arms
Walking on air's obnoxious
The thrills, the chills will make you nauseous
And you'll never get enough
Just forget about love." Apolla sang in a slightly rough but still lovely voice as she and Artemis acted out the scene from the movie.
"Forget about romance
Forget about the way your heart begins to dance
Then you feel the blush
When he's sprouting out some sentimental mush
Love really is revolting
It's even worse than when you're molting
Enough of this fluff
Just forget about love." Apolla sang almost as if she were trying to convince Artemis she was better off without Wasp.
"I had almost forgotten the way it felt
When he held out his hand for mine
My heart all a flutter." Artemis sang in a soft delicate voice while sounding clearly in love.
"Oh how I shudder." Apolla cut in with a fake shudder.
"The first time we kissed." Artemis sang dreamily
"It won't be missed
Forget about his touch." Apolla sang.
"I can't forget about his touch." Artemis sang in retaliation but still sounding like she was day dreaming.
"In the scheme of things it doesn't matter much." Apolla sang clearly annoyed.
"It matters so much." Artemis sang with a twirl.
"You're better on your own
A meal becomes a banquet when you eat alone." Apolla sang while trying to keep up with Artemis.
"Love's filled with compromises." They sang in unison Artemis happily while Apolla annoyed.
"And don't you hate those big surprises." Apolla sang.
"A cosy rendezvous." Artemis sang dreamily.
"Oh please." Apolla sang sarcastically.
"Candle light for two." Artemis continued acting like she didn't hear Apolla.
"Oh jeez." Apolla sang exasperatedly.
"Look you're calling my bluff
I can't just forget about love." Artemis sang with Apolla joining in during the 'Forget about love'.
Artemis then walked over to Wasp who was acting glum.
"Jasmine, I'm sorry. I should have told you what happened." Wasp said sadly.
"Aladdin it's fine. I –" Artemis started to say until she was cut off.
"Jasmine, please I have to say this." Wasp said ready to apologise.
"Shhh." Artemis said while pressing her finger to his lips.
"I can't forget about my heart." Artemis sang while staring into his eyes.
"I can't forget about my heart." Wasp sang in a soft voice that almost seemed to hang in the air
"Or how it felt to fall for you right from the start." Artemis sang with a smile and a blush.
"I'm still falling." Wasp sang almost embarrassedly.
"Whatever we may do." Artemis sang happily.
"Whatever we may do." Wasp sang as he repeated after her.
"You are here for me and I'll be there for you." Artemis sang putting plenty of emotion into the song.
"I'll be there." Wasp sang also putting a lot of emotion into the song.
"To wish, to want, to wonder
To find the sun through rain and thunder." They sang in unison as they spun in a circle while holding hands.
"A cosy rendezvous." Wasp sang almost as if he was suggesting it for a date.
"Yes please." Artemis sang eagerly.
"Candle light for two." Wasp sang as he looked ready to kiss Artemis.
"Oh jeez enough is enough!" Apolla sang as she popped up out of nowhere.
"We can't just forget about love." Artemis and Wasp sang in unison happily.
And at that they got off stage.
"Beautiful absolutely beautiful." Auertisse said as she got back up on stage.
"Next is Strike singing Never Had A Friend Like Me." Auertisse said as she silently temporarily transferred her powers to Strike for the performance.
Strike motioned for Wasp to help him. Wasp shrugged and did so by rubbing the lamp where Strike was hiding in.
"Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
(As Strike sang this, he appeared in front of Wasp and pulled out a deck of cards and held them out like a fan, on each card is a thief.)
Scheherazadie had a thousand tales.
(As Strike sang this, the thieves jumped off the cards and surrounded Wasp, while drawing out their swords. Wasp looked nervous.)
But master, you're in luck, 'cause up your sleeves
(As Strike sang this, he appeared out of Wasp's vest)
You got a brand of magic never fails.
(As Strike sang this, his hands turned into giant fists and knocked out all the thieves.)
You got some power in your corner now
(As Strike sang this, Artemis, Apolla, Wasp and he appeared in a boxing ring. Strike is in a coach's uniform and is massaging Wasp's shoulders.)
Some heavy ammunition in your camp!
(As Strike sang this, he turned into a firework rocket, lit himself and shot around the room. Artemis and Apolla ducked as Strike flew over them.)
You got some punch, pizazz, yahoo and how
(As Strike sang this, he changed into many different things.)
See all you gotta do is rub that lamp!
(He made Wasp rub the lamp)
And I'll say,
(Strike came out of lamp and folded his arms.)
Mister Aladdin Sir, what will your pleasure be?
(Strike made Wasp, Apolla and Artemis sit at a restaurant table. Strike turned into a French waiter.)
Let me take your order, jot it down; you ain't never had a friend like me! No No No!
(On the "no no no", Strike nudged Apolla causing some of her feathers to fall off.)
Life is your restaurant
And I'm your maître'd!
(Strike sang the first line in a sophisticated voice while making a covered plate appear. He took the metal top off, revealing a large turkey. On the second line, the turkey turns into Strike's head.)
C'mon whisper what it is you want,
You ain't never had a friend like me!
(As Strike sung the first line, he turned into a giant ear. On the second line, Strike exploded into four Strikes.)
Yes sir, we pride ourselves in service
(As Strike sung this line, the Strike clones perform spa treatments on Wasp.)
You're the boss, the king, the shah!
(Wasp appeared on a giant chair, while being fanned by Apolla and Artemis who were both scowling at Strike.)
Say what you wish
It's yours, true dish!
How 'bout a little more baklava?
(Strike filled the room with baklava.)
Have some column A
Try all of column B
(Wasp jumped from a large column of food labelled "A" to a pile labelled "B")
I'm in the mood to help you, dude!
You ain't ever had a friend like me!
(A giant Strike caught Wasp on a pillow and drops his jaw, which turns into a staircase. A normal-sized Strike in a white tuxedo comes down the stairs and dances with two giant gloves.)
Gloves: Wa ha ha!
Strike: Oh my!
Gloves: Wa ha ha!
Strike: No no!
Gloves: Wa ha ha!
Strike: No no no! Wakatuchepa! BAM!
(The gloves squished Strike into nothing.)
Can your friends do this?
(Strike pulled off his head, duplicated it, and juggled the heads.)
Can your friends do that?
(Strike threw the heads to Wasp who juggled them perfectly and threw them back to Strike.)
Do your friends pull this out their little hat?
(Strike turned into a rabbit and pulled himself out of a hat. He turned into a dragon and blows a fireball.)
Can your friends go poof!
(The fireball turns into three versions of Artemis all wearing bikinis who dance around Wasp causing him to drool and the real Artemis to get riled up.)
Well looky here! Haha!
Can your friends go Abracadabra, let 'er rip!
(Strike literally ripped himself in half)
And make that sucker disappear!
(The Artemises disappear)
So don't you sit there slack jawed, buggy eyed
(Strike imitated this line)
I'm here to answer all your midday prayers!
(Strike got in a praying position. He then turned into a giant contract.)
You got a bona genie, certified! A genie for your charge d' affairs!
(Strike turned back to normal.)
I got a powerful urge to help you out! So what you wish? I really wanna know!
(Strike pulled a long list out of Wasp's ear.)
You got a list that's three miles long, no doubt. So all you do is rub like so!
(Strike rubbed the list on his bottom like a towel and then snapped it like a whip. The Artemises appeared again.)
Mister Aladdin Sir, you have a wish or two or three,
(Wasp leaned forward to kiss one of the Artemis clones. The clone turned into Strike.)
I'm on the job, you big nabob!
(Strike zapped randomly around the room the others barely managing to dodge the blasts. He made dancing elephants and camels; large fountains, neon lights, large mountains of treasure, etc. appear.)
You ain't never (ZAP!) ever (ZAP)had a (ZAP!) Friend... Like... MEEEEEEEE!" Strike sang with a lot of enthusiasm as everything returned back to normal.
"Strike!" Artemis yelled and started chasing after the slightly younger boy.
"It was part of the song!" Strike yelled as he ran away from a very angry Artemis.
"Okay? Next we have Magpie, Beastboy and Beastia singing I Just Can't Wait to be King." Auertisse said happily as the before mentioned teens took their places on stage or above stage in Magpie's case.
Magpie looked down from above Beastboy and Beastia who were whispering to each other and smiled, "Well look at you two," Magpie said and flew down to them, "Your parents will be mighty happy when they hear you two a betrothed."
"Be-what?" Beastboy asked confused.
Magpie sighed, "In other terms," Magpie said, "One day you two will be getting married."
"WHAT!" Beastboy and Beastia said in shock, "I can't marry her, she's my friend."
"Yeah," Beastia said in agreement.
"Well it's the law, so deal with it," Magpie said sternly.
"Well that's the first thing I'm going to change when I become king," Beastboy said as everyone in the audience shuddered at the thought.
"Well," Magpie said carefully as she felt a vein start to throb, "I hate to burst your bubble, but you're not king yet."
"Well he's the future king," Beastia said pointing it out.
"Yeah," Beastboy said sneakily, "So you have to do whatever I say."
"Not yet I don't," Magpie said defiantly.
Beastboy frowned and then smirked, "I'm gonna be a mighty king, so enemies beware!"
Magpie frowned and landed on the ground to correct him, "I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair."
Beastboy kept up the acting and singing, "I'm gonna be the main event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my roar."
Beastboy roared at Magpie who was unimpressed. Magpie have him a look, "Thus far a rather uninspiring thing."
Beastboy frowned again then smiled, "Oh, I just can't wait to be king!"
Beastboy walked next to Magpie and Beastia joined him, "No one saying do this." Beastboy sang.
"Now when I said that-" Magpie tried.
"No one saying be there." Beastia sang.
"What I meant was-" Magpie tried again.
"No one saying stop that." Beastboy sang.
"What you don't realize-" Magpie said.
"No one saying see here!" Beastboy and Beastia sang together and Beastboy grabbed Beastia and ran away.
"Now see here!" Magpie yelled as she flew to follow them.
"Free to run around all day." Beastboy sang having fun while riding an ostrich that looked suspiciously like Terra.
"That's definitely out-" Magpie said before she ran into a tree.
"Free to do it all my way!" Beastboy sang free of worries.
Magpie rubbed her head and followed them again, "I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart-to-heart." Magpie sang annoyed.
"Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start." Beastia sang.
"If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about." Magpie sang then ran into a herd of elephants that looked a lot like Hex, "This child is getting wildly out of wing."
Magpie got back into the air, "Oh, I just can't wait to be king!" Beastboy sang and saw Magpie coming and smirked, "Everybody look left."
Magpie was trampled by herds of animals, "Man I hate this part." Magpie grumbled under her breath.
"Everybody look right." Beastia sang and Magpie got trampled again.
"Everywhere you look I'm
Standing in the spotlight." Beastboy sang while standing in a spot light.
"Not yet!" Magpie said and got back into the air annoyed now.
"Oh, I just can't wait to be king!" Beastboy sang happily.
"Oh, he just can't wait to be king!" Beastia sang just as happily.
"Oh, I just can't wait..." Beastboy and Beastia sang together while Magpie got trampled and sat on by animals.
"To be king!" Beastboy and Beastia sang and they both ran off stage.
"Very funny," Magpie said as she got out from under the animals, "Now let's go—Simba? Nala?" Magpie looked around, "Oh no," Magpie said and got into the air again to look for them.
"Well done all of you. Now the judges will vote on who was the best. The results will be announced tomorrow now off to bed you six!" Auertisse shouted at them as everything became normal again.
The teens shrugged and did so.
"Man it's gonna be a long night." Jasiri said wearily as the Titans started arguing on who was the best.
Me in a Scottish accent: So who should win? Personally I'm partial to Apolla, Artemis and Wasp me self but it's probably just because I love the song a wee bit too much. Well I'll see you laddies and lassies later I've got to go help me Auntie with the grub. Ahhhh I'm going Scottish better leave you lot before ya crossover too. Chavonnie26 GO!
