Hey ppl! This is a chapter that doesn't have much significance, just bridges to the next chapter. So, anyways...Ummm... Once again, special thanks to D3sstorjo, blah blah blah, disclaimer.
(I own no pokemon, no characters, no song lyrics, nothing except my story plot.)
Previously...
Everyone looked towards the back and Paul threw a smoke bomb, both him and Dawn dropping the open handcuffs, jumping out the window.
Dawn looked back at the staring crowd one last time and held out a peace sign with a loopy grin.
"Peace out suckas!"
There was a note left on the ground. Reggie picked it up. "Typical. A note, a crazy escape. Just like old times."
Misty looked at him. "Old times?"
"Yeah. Friends since kindergarten, pranksters, amazing singers, dancers, musicians, artists, and actors. Dawn and Paul mastered everything together. Even French. They'll tell you guys about it at home, that's where they'll probably be."
"How are you so sure, Reggie?", Drew challenged.
"One, they're both like family, I know them like the back of my hand. Two, it's on the note, guys."
Paul and Dawn ran home. The moment they got in and locked the door, Dawn pounced on Paul, hugging him so hard they both collapsed onto the sofa.
"One of our best pranks, Paul!", she yelled.
Gary entered the house,"They're coming in about 5 minutes guys."
Dawn took advantage that they had 5 minutes of alone time, kissing Paul quickly.
"Paul, I think it's time we play our favorite game."
"You mean your favorite game. Whatever. Your way or my way?"
Gary interrupted. "Guys, it's getting kinda weird having two of my friends openly discussing getting l-"
Dawn yelled, "Gary, not that! I am a girl, by the way, I wanted to play matchmaker with my buddies! Paul just adds some pranking power to the mix, it's powerful stuff."
"So what should we do then?", Paul said, going back to the subject.
"Make them super jealous, duh! We can start on May and Drew. Do whatever you can, be nice, give her gifts, kiss her! Anything!"
Paul raised an eyebrow. "Wouldn't I be cheating on you then?"
Dawn put on a sad face, wiping away a fake tear. "Paul, I think we should see other people for a while.", her imaginary tears left as she smirked evilly at how she'd thought this through perfectly.
Paul shrugged. "So, I get food girl, you get pretty boy?"
"Yup! Hey Paul, we should wear costumes right now!"
At Reggie's house...
Everyone had gotten over the shock when Gary casually strided to the window and jumped out as well.
Everyone was ready to leave, when Reggie held out a hand.
"Wait! Just...expect the unexpected, guys."
Drew waved it off. "Reggie, we've known them for a while, I think they're going to act the same."
They walked, and as they kept walking, they noticed how ridiculous that seemed now.
Drew scoffed, "What's gonna happen, we're gonna walk in to them dressed like barn animals?"
Everyone laughed, then they approached the house, hearing yelling noises.
"Put on the cat ears!" "No!" "Put them on!" "NO!"
There was the sound of Dawn and Paul running around the house, stuff knocking over, and Drew slapped his forehead.
"If you don't stop right now, I'm going to lock you in the closet!" "LIAR!"
Another few stomping noises, the sound of something falling onto the ground, and ending with the slam of a door, and someone's muffled banging from inside of it. They decided enough was enough, and opened the door.
Paul was looking up, smirk on his face, with a laugh so sinister you weren't sure whether you wanted to hide or laugh at how serious he was taking it. "Buahahahaha! I've got you now! Now that you're in the closet-"
A muffled squeal was heard from inside the closet!
"I've got a great idea for the lyrics game now!"
Misty looked at the closet door. "We just found out you can sing, now you have a game for it?"
"Yes. See, you get words from a conversation and find lyrics that go with it. Paul, redo your last three sentences. Since it's you guy's first time, I'll do the first one pretty long. May, can you howl for me?"
May raised an eyebrow."Why would I need to-"
"GARY, LOBA ON YOUR MP3!"
"Now we're talking Spanish!", May yelled.
"Just shut up! Do you want to hear me sing?"
"YESYESYES!", May and Misty yelled.
"Play the song. Show the beginning as a clue."
Paul laughed again. "Buahahahaha! I've got you now! Now that you're in the closet-"
The music started, Paul was cut off.
S.O.S. she's in disguise
S.O.S. she's in disguise
There's a she-wolf in disguise
May whispered, "Oh, the howl!", the song skipped forward,and Dawn started singing.
There's a she wolf in your closet,
Open up and set her free (Aoo!)
There's a she wolf in your closet,
Let it out so it can breathe.
Paul let Dawn out of the closet, and the girls were in awe.
"We thought you couldn't sing!"
Dawn winked,"I guess I can, huh? Now, let's think of something to talk about..."
Drew yelled, "Well the only things we know is your names, the fact that you all go to Cerulean with Gary, and Paul and Dawn didn't tell us they were best friends!"
"Excuse us for a moment," Dawn dragged Paul into a long hallway.
"Hey Paul, pretty please could we have the plan next Saturday?"
The group came into the hallway. "My friend's coming because-"
"It's your birthday, of course, Dawn."
May gasped and walked up. "It is? Why didn't you tell us it was your birthday? Who's coming? How'd you know it was her birthday?"
Dawn rolled her eyes. "Leaf coming was a secret, that's why. And..."
"She made me promise never to forget anything when we were 7.", Paul finished.
Dawn's face lit up.
Did you forget that I was even alive?
Did you forget everything we ever had?
Did you forget, did you forget, about me?
"Two points. Drew, how about I help you?" Dawn asked. "Here, I'll give you a good one. May, what's your second favorite dance?"
"Tap dancing?" "What do the shoes do?" "Make tapping noises, duh."
Dawn looked at Drew expectantly. Gary started the song. Paul beat him to it,
You got your high brows,
switching your walk,
and you don't even look
when you pass by.
But you don't know,
the way that you look
when your steps make that much noise.
Dawn looked at the others. "Me and Paul are winning! You guys need to catch up!"
Dawn's phone rang.
"H-Hello? Oh, hey Leaf! Just singing with all our friends. Yes, I can sing!", she rolled her eyes. "I'll tell you the rest later. Anyways, why did you- What? That's great! Okay, do you want us to- Okay, see you later!"
She hung up.
"What do you mean by see you later?", Gary asked.
"Umm...Leaf got sent over here earlier. So...she's gonna be here...today?", she said sheepishly.
"WHAT?", May and Misty exclaimed. Dawn ignored them. "So can she stay over here too?"
The boys nodded, shrugged, and generally agreed.
"Okay, good because I already told her to come to this house, not-"
Ding Dong!
"Quick, before we answer the door, what's she like?", Paul rushed.
"Well, she's kind of nerdy, but we're still friends because-"Dawn was cut off.
"No, what does she look like?", Paul explained.
"Well, she has brown hair and brown eyes, but I don't know what she's wearing because-"
"Probably some of her regular stuff, right?", Gary asked.
"No! I heard that since we were gone, those fashion designer girls attacked her!", Dawn explained. The doorbell rang again, and Gary walked to the door.
"I doubt that Leaf would change her style because of some girls that-"
Leaf was at the door, and she didn't look very nerdy, actually, she looked stunning. Only Dawn and Paul noticed Gary staring at her.
(Outfit Link on Profile)
She was wearing a dress with a white top, a bow in the middle, and a polka dot baby blue bottom. Near her shoulder was a small flower made of the same material, and she was wearing a straw hat, jewelry, and flats to match.
"Umm...hey guys! Who are your friends?", she asked.
Dawn squealed. "Leaf, you look so pretty! What did they do to you?"
"Just changed my clothes, did my makeup...So, who are your friends?", she repeated.
Dawn composed herself. "This is Drew, Ash, and Paul, my best friend. Oh! I need to tell you something! Paul, Gary?"
They went back into that long hallway with Leaf.
"Okay Leaf, since Gary knows, I think we should have a girl know, too. Me and Paul-"
"Are Acoustic Heroes!", Leaf whisper-yelled. "I think I'm the only one who noticed, don't worry. I'm your biggest fan remember? I played guitar for you guys, Paul taught me a little."
"Oh, yeah! Well...I guess I have nothing else to say, well we're going out, but nothing else. We talked about my lyrics game, Ash will ask."
They walked back into the room.
Ash made a confused face. "What were you talking about?"
"Oh, she was just telling me about that lyrics game you were playing.", Leaf explained.
Ash nodded.
They decided to go in the backyard, which was huge. Everyone was sitting in a circle in the grass (forced by Dawn).
"Okay, let's keep going on our game!"
Drew shook his head. "Isn't that game, a little...stupid?"
Dawn gasped. "Rude!"
Misty snapped her fingers, Gary played another song.
Come here rude boy, boy, can you get it up?
Come here rude boy, boy, is you big enough?
Take it, take it, baby, baby, take it, take it, love me,love me.
Drew looked at the girls. "You know, I still haven't heard Leaf or May sing. Of course," He smirked."May's chances of singing a song better than the average toad are pretty impossible."
Dawn scowled. "Oooh, May, this is a perfect opportunity, sing a long part!"
Drew raised an eyebrow, "I didn't say any lyrics, did I-?" May only winked as Gary's MP3 player started again.
Tell them all I know now, shout it from the rooftops,
Write it on the skyline, all we have is gone now,
Tell them I was happy, and my heart is broken,
All my scars are open, tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, Impossible, Impossible, Impossible.
Her voice was sweet, even Drew thought it was amazing. Everyone watched as Drew stared at May with a shocked expression.
"Uhh...wow.", he managed.
May smirked in a way that reminded Drew much if himself.
"Left you speechless, huh pretty boy?", she said.
"Aha! The tables have been turned!", Dawn blurted.
After a while, they went back in to order pizza and after dinner, they were just sitting in another circle silently, staring at one another.
"So is your school like Camp Rock or something?", Ash asked finally.
Gary slapped his forehead, and several groans were heard.
"Hey, let's sing It's On!", Dawn said.
"We need people to do the instrumentals, and we don't have any instruments, do we?", Gary replied.
"Sure we do.", Paul started. "Ash has drums, I've got an electric guitar-"
"You do?", Drew asked. "Yes, I have a few, I can play guitar, Drew."
"I've got another electric guitar!", Leaf interrupted.
The whole room was silent.
"Really? Isn't that a guy's kind of instrument?", Gary asked.
"And, I don't think Paul is that good for those solos.", Drew added.
Paul clapped his hands. "So it's settled. Leaf and I are playing guitar."
"Dude, we just said the opposite."
"Yes, but I know she has some killer guitar skills and I'm not letting you guys underestimate us.", Paul retorted.
"Fine, then...let's go rock the world."
This chapter isn't that great to me. What did you guys think? Please review! Pretty please!
