A/N: hey! So I'm pretty sure I gave everyone the reviewed a cyber hug! If not, Cyber hugs!!!!! So please, please, please polyvore profile my name on polyvore!!!
EPOV
I stood they shocked. Bella just walked away, after we just made out! I really like her, I love her, I would do anything for her! But I don't want to drag her into my messed-up life! I guess I just have to get over her! To bad it's easier said then done.
Right now I was in my basement practicing with Emmett and Jasper. The first round of the Battle was in a week. We needed two songs for the first round. We were going to sing 'Shut up' by Simple Plan and "Underclass hero' by Sum 41.
All three of us decided on the name Haywire. But Emmett suggested a whole list of things.
Fruitcake
Maximum Sweetness
Shmuck
The Great Pumpkins
Pocket Cheese
Good Cookies
Holy Smokes
Brainfart
Hard Boiled Egg
And
10. Chicken
Don't ask. This is Emmett we're talking about.
"Edward!" Alice screamed, running into the basement.
I gave her an annoyed look. "What?!" I asked.
"What did you do to Bella?" she yelled. She looked like she was about to brake into tears.
"Nothing important." I said, going back to evil Edward.
"Really?! Because she just called me, she was in tears! When I asked her what was wrong she just said 'Edward'! I can't believe you! The only friend I have besides Rosalie and you have to hurt her! You can't let anyone else be happy can you!? When ever I am close to making a friend you say…something to make them think I'm a freak! You do that to me! Your own twin! And other then that all you do it set me up to fail! I hate you! I hate you with every fiber of my being!" she ran out of the room crying.
-----
One week later
First round of the Battle of the Bands!!
APOV
I sat in the living room waiting for everyone. I had picked out all of there clothes, of course. I couldn't have them looking awful!
I was wearing a jean skirt with leggings, a yellow One Vintage Iva top (whatever that is! I found it in Esme's old things.), leather ankle boots with a buckle, a black studded head band and bracelet, silver studded earrings. I had a mix of yellow and black eye shadow on in a smoky eye design, dark red lipstick, yellow nail polish, and Dolce and Gabbana rose the one eau de parfum spray on. I looked lovely, like always!
Soon Emmett and Rosalie came down and sat in the love seat. Rosalie was in skinny jeans, a black v-neck shirt, with a black knit-studded beret, red feather earrings, red and black plaid converse, a chunky red bracelet, a red belt with a skull charm on the end. She had dark red lip-gloss on, with a mix of white and black eye shadow on, as well as some perfume (that I didn't know the name of, again it was Esme's), and black nail polish. He hair was also pin straight.
Emmett wore blue skinny's, with a white shirt, a black vest and tie, black and blue checked converse, a pinstripe paisley tie fedora, and some bracelet he insisted on wearing.
Jasper soon came down looking as handsome as ever. His hair was in a little foe-halk, he wore a black and white plaid button-up (the sleeve's were rolled up to his elbows), loose jeans, black cowboy boots, and a necklace that had a little swirly charm.
I smiled at him. He sat down next to me on the floor. Soon I crawled in between his legs and he wrapped his arms around me.
Next Edward came down. He was wearing a black top with a blue, and black argyle tie. As well as navy blue high-tops, black skinny jeans, and shades on. His hair was spiked much to my dismay), he was wearing his silver watch, and his guitar was slung over this shoulder.
He sat down in one of our lazy-boy chairs.
The only person left was Bella.
We waited. And waited. And waited.
Soon me and Rose got worried and walked up to the guest room. Bella had slept over for the night a insisted she stayed in a guest room.
We found her on the bed, hyperventilating.
We sat down on either side of her.
"Bella? Are you okay?" Rose asked.
She shock her head. "Guys, I'm scared. All those people. Everyone will be looking at me at one point, during the night." she said, shacking.
I could understand. We really hadn't practiced that much, and she had told us she has stage-fright.
We talked, and soothed her, and finally we got her down stairs.
Bella was wearing black skinny jeans, a white top with a build-in vest-like thing, pink high-top, a pink tie, and a pink belt. Baby pink, white, and black bracelets with the same studded design, and Giles & Brother stud-embellished hoop earrings. Her make up was simple. Pink eye shadow, mascara, pink lipstick, and a H&M nail polish. It was called Midnight passion.
We walked into the room and Edward stood immediately. We all turned to look at him. He blushed slightly, then sat back down (A/N: lol!!! That's in the Harry Potter movie!! I laughed so hard!! Lol, sorry! Also! You can see all their outfits on my polyvore profile!!! GO. CHECK. IT. OUT! Okay…I'm done now).
------
BPOV
We all walked into the gym, and I gasped. There were lights. There was smoke. And, oh my god, there was Tanya and the plastics in bikinis. How stupid!
They dragged Edward away. I felt, somewhat, bad for him.
"Hey Bella." I heard a deep voice say behind me. I turned slowly to see Jacob Black. "You look good. Did you do something to your hair."
"I cut it, Jacob. It's pretty obvious." I sighed, crossing my arms. All Jacob as been doing since I went through the make-over was flirting with me. It's getting really annoying.
"Oh, right. I knew that." he said, scratching his head. I rolled my eyes.
"So, you here to support? I mean, really, you sing? Please! Girls can't sing!" He rambled on.
"Actually, Black, I'm here with my band, Bloody Roses." I sneered.
His browed furrowed. "Ha! Okay, whatever!" then he walked off.
I stood there shocked. He had the never to say that girls can't sing! I'll show him! That little-
I felt a hand on my arm. "Hey. Don't listen to him. He can be a jerk." I turned to see three girl with russet skin, like the La push kids.
"Are you from La Push?" I asked.
"Ya. I'm Emily. This is Claire," she pointed to a girl in a green camisole, white jeans, and green converse. "And this is Kim." she said, pointing to pointing to the other girl in a bright blue shirt that said 'let's make magic Love muffins!". I giggled when I read that.
And Emily her self was wearing a gray shirt with some abstracted design, dark wash skinny jeans, and black high-tops with bronze studs.
I smiled. "Hi, I'm Bella. Umm, oh! The pixie over there is Alice," I said pointing to alice, who was making out with jasper. "And that blond girl over there is Rosalie. They are my band mates." I said pointing to Rose, who was sucking faces with Emmett.
"Jeez, what's up with your friends eating each others faces." Kim asked. I shrugged and they laughed.
I looked around. I hadn't noticed until not that the walls and windows were draped with black cloth. All the walls were black, and no light came from the windows.
"Okay, well I got to set up." I said to the La push girls. I smiled and waved. They waved back and I walked over to Alice.
I got really close to her ear and yelled "Stop eating Jaspers face!!"
She screamed and jumped like ten feet in the air.
She turned, and glared. "What is it Bella?" she said. If looks could kill….
"We have to set up." I said, and her face went back to normal.
"Oh, okay!" she said, perky once more. She kissed jasper on the cheek and we went to our stage.
I say 'our' stage because there was more then one stage. There were six stages in total. One for us, one for Haywire (Edward's band), Mike and the boy (when we heard the name we broke into uncontrollable laughter.), the Nomads (Tanya's band. It's a miracle that they could even spell Nomads.), She wolf, and the Werewolves.
We knew it was ours because it said 'Bloody Roses' on the base of the stage.
We helped Rosalie set up and started to practise. We had three house to set up, practise, and get all the special effects ready. If you think about it, that wasn't a lot of time.
-------
We, meaning me, the Cullen kids, and Esme, sat there watching the pathetic singers. Mike and the boys sand 'Move Along' by the All-American Rejects, and 'The boys are Back' by the Backstreet boys. They sang off key, and they couldn't play there instruments.
The Nomads sang 'Womanizer' by Brittany Spears, and 'Ice breaker' by Brittany Spears. They could sing. And all they basically did was grinding. At they end Tanya blew a kiss to Edward. He made a disgusted look, and shrunk in his seat. Everyone laughed, even Esme!
-----
The lights went out. And sounds turned on, it sounded like there was a wolf in the room. Then music started.
The little lights on the edge of the stage turned on and all you could see was Emily, Claire, and Kim dancing. They were really good! And they hadn't even started!
Then Emily grabbed the mic and started to sing.
S.O.S. she's in disguise
S.O.S. she's in disguise
There's a she wolf in disguise
Coming out, coming out, coming out
A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy
The moon's awake now with eyes wide open
My body's craving, so feed the hungry
Smoke floated around in the air, and Kim took the mic. The two other girls danced in the back ground.
Next Claire grabbed in the mic. And the two other girl grabbed their instruments, and started to play.
I've been devoting myself to you Monday to Monday and Friday to Friday
Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it
I'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office
So I'm gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover
And tell you all about it
There's a she wolf in your closet
Open up and set her free
There's a she wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe
Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey
It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way
Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent
The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student
Kim took the mic next.
To locate the single men, I got on me a special radar
And the fire department hotline in case I get in trouble later
Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys that just want to enjoy
But having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy
There's a she wolf in the closet
Open up and set her free
There's a she wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe
Everyone was on there feet dancing and clapping.
S.O.S. she's in disguise
S.O.S. she's in disguise
There's a she wolf in disguise
Coming out, coming out, coming out
S.O.S. she's in disguise
S.O.S. she's in disguise
There's a she wolf in disguise
Coming out, coming out, coming out
There's a she wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe
The song ended and the bowed, then walked off stage.
They had got a huge applause, and the judges seemed impressed.
----
The intermission started and everyone got up.
I run into the biology room where all the bands met.
"Okay guys! Listen up!" we all looked to Ben. Ben was the announcer.
"After Kim, Claire, and Emily finish their last number, Haywire will go, the Werewolves, then the Bloody Roses will close off the singing part of the night. After all the bands are done performing the three judges will go off and decide which bands will go to next round. Okay?" everyone nodded. He nodded, then got off the chair was standing on, and everyone went back to what they were doing.
I walked over to Kim, Claire, and Emily.
"Oh my gosh! You guys were great! Wow! I mean-that dancing, and singing, and-just-just-wow." I said, stunned. Then Emmett ruined it.
"Ya! You guys were hot!" Emily Chuckled.
"Um…okay?" Claire asked. Kim didn't say anything. Edward chuckled, and we all went to get some water.
"You guys nervous?" Jacob asked from behind me.
"No." I said crossing my arms while facing him.
In truth that was a total lie, I was freaking inside.
"Hmph." was all he said.
"Jacob, you have to admit they rocked. They were phenomenal!" I said.
"They were okay, I guess. For girls." then he walked away.
What was his problem?!
--------
We were all seated in our seats once more, and they were on stage again.
They were all frozen in a pose. Emily has holding the mic with both hands, her eyes closed.
Claire looked like she was tuning her guitar. She had probably done it before the show.
And Kim was slightly behind Emily (opposite of Claire), she was singing back-up. Kim looked like she was pulling up her collar.
It was slightly creepy. Claire and Kim didn't blink, and Emily didn't move. They didn't even look like they were breathing.
Once the music started they started to move. Like they were never frozen in the first place.
You've got your mother and your brother
Every other undercover
Tellin' you what to say (say)
You think I'm stupid
But the truth is
That it's cupid, baby
Lovin' you has made me this way
So before you point your finger
Get your hands off of my trigger
Oh yeah
You need to know this situation's getting old
And now the more you talk
The less I can say, oh
I'm looking for attention I waited here for you
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why are you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Just walk away
Just walk away
Like a kid waiting after school
So tell me how come you never showed (showed)?
I gave you everything
And never asked for anything
And look at me
I'm all alone (alone)
So, before you start defendin'
Baby, stop all your pretendin'
I know you know I know
So what's the point in being slow
Let's get the show on the road today
Hey
I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why are you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Just walk away
Just walk away
They were singing 'Walk away' by Kelly Clarkson. The song was a little less down beat, but it was still awesome!
I wanna love
I want a fire
To feel the burn
My desires
I wanna man by my side
Not a boy who runs and hides
Are you gonna fight for me?
Die for me?
Live and breathe for me?
Do you care for me?
'Cause if you don't then just leave
I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why are you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Emily didn't move much, she just danced on the spot, the same with Kim. And Claire played her heart out.
If you don't have the answer
Walk away
Just walk (walk) away
(Just walk away)
Then just leave
Yeah yeah
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
They really wanted to get to the next round.
--------
Red, purple, and yellow lights turned on and Jacob, Paul, Quil, Jared, Embry, and Sam stepped on stage.
They were all wearing jeans and t-shirts.
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when you grow up, When I was a young boy, Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me. We'll carry on, A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams To carry on On and on we carry through the fears Do or die, you'll never make me We'll carry on Do or die, you'll never make me
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?"
He said "Will you defeat them,
your demons, and all the non-believers,
the plans that they have made?"
"Because one day I'll leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join The Black Parade."
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when you grow up,
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?"
And other times I feel like I should go.
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
And when you're gone we want you all to know.
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And in my heart I can't contain it
The anthem won't explain it.
Your misery and hate will kill us all.
So paint it black and take it back
Let's shout it loud and clear
Defiant to the end we hear the call
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches
Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers
Ooh oh ohhhh
Take a look at me cause I could not care at all
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part
I won't explain or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar
Give a cheer for all the broken
Listen here, because it's who we are
I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
Just a boy, who had to sing this song
I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
I! don't! care!
We'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches on
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)
Do or die, you'll never make me (We'll carry on)
Because the world will never take my heart (We'll carry on)
Go and try, you'll never break me (We'll carry)
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)
Sam was playing the drums, Paul was playing base guitar, Jacob was playing the guitar, Quil played the banjo (what they needed a banjo for, I didn't have a clue), Embry played the acoustic bass guitar, and Jared played the seven-string guitar. Boy they had a lot of guitars!
So am I still waiting,
For this world to stop hating?
Can't find a good reason.
Can't find hope to believe in.
Drop dead a bullet to my head. These eyes have seen no conviction. So am I still waiting, Ignorance and understanding, How far will we take this? So am I still waiting, This can't last forever. What have we done? So am I still waiting,
Your words are like a gun in hand,
You can't change the state of the nation,
We just need some motivation.
Just lies and more contradiction,
So tell me what would you say?
I'd say it's time
too late
For this world to stop hating?
Can't find a good reason.
Can't find hope to believe in.
We're the first ones to jump in line.
Out of step for what we believe in,
But who's left to stop the bleeding?
It's not hard to see through the fakeness
So tell me what would you say?
I'd say it's time
too late
For this world to stop hating?
Can't find a good reason.
Can't find hope to believe.
Time won't make things better.
I feel so alone,
Can't help myself,
And no one knows,
If this is worthless,
Tell me [Echo x3]
SO!
with a war that can't be won!
This can't be real!
I don't know what to feel!
For this world to stop hating?
Can't find a good reason.
Can't find hope to believe!
So am I still waiting,
For this world to stop hating?
Can't find a good reason,
For this world to BELIEVE!
They finished their songs. They weren't anything special.
---------
I turned to look at the boys but they were gone.
The room went dark. Green, blue, yellow, and white lights flashed everywhere. It was kind of scary.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! Prepared to be Haywired!" said a loud voice over the P.A. system.
The lights kept flashing as the music started, then three spot-lights found Emmett, Edward, and Jasper.
There you go
You're always so right
It's all a big show
It's all about you
You think you know It seems like everyday So shut up Shut up Shut up There you go You think you're special You're always there to point So shut up Shut up Shut up Is gonna bring me down. Don't tell me who I should be So shut up Shut up Shut up So shut up Shut up Shut up Bring me down
What everyone needs
You always take time
to criticize me
I make mistakes
I just can't get it right
It's like I'm the one
you love to hate
But not today.
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today

You never ask why
It's all a big lie
Whatever you do
But I know and I know and I know
And we know

And shove them in my face
It's like I'm the one you love to hate
But not today.
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today
Is gonna bring me down
Will never bring me down.
and don't try to tell me what's right for me
Don't tell me what I should do
I don't wanna waste my time
I'll watch you fade away
Don't wanna hear it
Get out Get out Get out
Get out of my way
Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say today

Step up Step up Step up
You'll never stop me
Nothing you say Is gonna bring me down
Won't bring me down
Won't bring me down
Bring me down
Won't bring me down
Shut up Shut up Shut up
I looked around. I saw Alice ad Rosalie dancing, and clapping. I saw a bunch of cheerleaders screaming, and the plastics looked like there was loose connection from the part of their brain that makes them dance to the part that stops them from doing stuff that would make them look stupid…to late!
I stood up and danced with them, we laughed and sang along.
We turned back to the band and Edward had jumped of the stage! Playing his guitar and singing. I had to admit, I don't think we'll win anymore!
The next song started and it was just as good. They sand and danced, and we laughed and danced to the music.
The faster we're falling,
We're stopping and stalling.
We're running in circles again
Just as things we're looking up
You said it wasn't good enough.
But still we're trying one more time.
Maybe we're just trying to hard. Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep, Seems like each time Maybe we're just trying to hard. Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep, I can't sit back and wonder why. I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
When really it's closer than it is too far
All the thoughts in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
All the thoughts in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
I'm with you I loose my mind,
Because I'm bending over backwards to relate.
It's one thing to complain
But when you're driving me insane
Well then I think it's time that we took a break.
When really it's closer than it is too far
All the thoughts in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
All the thoughts in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
It took so long for this to die.
And I hate it when you fake it.
You can't hide it you might as well embrace it.
So believe me it's not easy.
It seems that something's telling me,
All the thoughts in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
All the thoughts in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
instead of going under.
instead of going under again.
instead of going under.
instead of going under again.
instead of going under again.
-------
Rosalie played the guitar and I quickly joined in with the song. I sung with both hand and the mic, and my eyes closed.
I hope the ring you gave to her
Turns her finger green
I hope when you're in bed with her
You think of me
I would never wish bad things I never read your letter Does it hurt
But I don't wish you well
Could you tell
By the flames that burned your words?
'Cause I knew what you'd say
Give me that Sunday school answer
Try and make it all okay
To know I'll never be there?
Bet it sucks
To see my face everywhere
It was you
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
Soon Alice joined in with the drums and I let loose! I didn't think about the crowd, I just sang my heart out.
You knew
Exactly what you would do
Don't say
You simply lost your way
She may believe you If she really knows the truth
But I never will
Never again
She deserves you
A trophy wife, oh how cute
Ignorance is bliss
But when your day comes
And he's through with you
And he'll be through with you
You'll die together but alone
I opened my eyes and danced on the spot. The crowd was clapping, and swaying. They seemed to really enjoy it
You wrote me in a letter
You couldn't say it right to my face
Well give me that Sunday school answer
Repent yourself away
Does it hurt It was you You knew They may believe you Never again will I hear you Never again will I kiss you Does it hurt It was you You knew
To know I'll never be there?
Bet it sucks
To see my face everywhere
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
Exactly what you would do
And don't say
You simply lost your way
But I never will
Never again
Never again will I miss you
Never again will I fall to you
Never
Never again will I want to
Never again will I love you
Never
To know I'll never be there?
Bet it sucks
To see my face everywhere
Who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
Exactly what you would do
And don't say
You simply lost your way
They may believe you
But I never will
I never will
I never will
Never again
Soon the first song was over and we had to sing the second. The second song we were going to sing is 'Everybody's Fool' by Evanescence, it was much different then the first which was 'Never Again' by Kelly Clarkson. It was a shorter song, but there was a lot of repeating at the end.
Perfect by nature
Icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that
Never was and never will be Look here she comes now Never was and never will be Without the mask, where will you hide? I know the truth now It Never was and never will be
Have you no shame? Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh how we love you
No flaws when you're pretending
But now I know she
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled
Can't find yourself lost in your lie
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled
It never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool
Once I finished I looked out into the audience they looked shocked that I could sing like that.
-------
All the bands were on stage. The judges had just come back, and now we were about t find out who wasn't going to make it to the next round.
"After many very entertaining song and some…disturbing ones, we now how will be watching next round." the first judge said.
He opened and envelope. Then smiled.
"Mike and the boys, thanks you, but your efforts were not strong enough." he said he tipped his head then slaked off.
I hugged the Cullen girls, then the La push girls.
------
That night we feast on pizza and coke zero. It was a long day and soon we all fell asleep in the Cullen's basement.
