Chapter 10
Last chapter was pretty long if I say so myself, and I do. Anyhow last time you found out Ren was kidnapped; and just when the Metals and Jem thought all hope was lost…Blud came to the rescue. Saying that all they had to do was dress Zoey up like Ren, however will the fans notice the voice difference? Guess we'll find out. Oh and thank you to my new reader for telling me about Haven house it really helps. Now ONWARD TO THE BATTLE FIELD
"Wow Zoey, you look just like her." Creepie said, Zoey narrowed her eyes; she was thick with white foundation giving her the pail tan Ren had, with almost as thick eyeliner on and around her eyes. She was wearing Ren's signature look; a black cut off top and her pleated black and red skirt, dog collar and boots, and to top all that off she was wearing a silver/white haired wig tied off into two pigtails.
"Of course I look like her; we're twins!" she shouted, which was a little amusing. Zoey groaned; they were identical twins however Ren was totally different from Zoey, in the fact that she kept her hair long and avoided the sun. Zoey sighed.
"Alright Zoey; here's the song that Ren had written for the Haven House concert." Becky said handing her the paper with the song lyrics on it.
"We don't have much time so we'll get one good practice in before tomorrow alright Zoey?" Jem said; she gave an awkward smile; with Zoey looking just like Ren, she was going to have to be careful and not talk to her as if she knew her secret like the real Ren did. Zoey looked down at the lyrics, groaning.
"My sister is really knows how to title these." She muttered, Becky looked down at the paper. The lyrics read; Poetaster and singing dolls.
"Well it doesn't matter it's pretty appropriate for the show; I mean in a sense that she hasn't used the language she usually does." Becky commented, "This song is for you and Othello to sing; so let's get to work before Othello loses focus."
"Hey!" Othello shouted, Becky shushed him and then told him to start playing; Zoey swallowed hard then sang;
Meaningless wordplay, a dream of meaningful consciousness
A tarnished yet pure melody casts a brilliant shadow
I don't understand difficult things, but as flowing symbols
It starts to chase me, and envelops even my mistakes
As they are
An infinite poem of revelation, the finite wanderings of words
At the root of the clear motive, it vaguely trembles, then stops
I don't understand difficult things, but even though you're downcast
You're cute, so take my hand and let's fly together
Until we're satisfied
I wrap things in lovely words and send them all to the one I love
Dazzling hope always transforms into a shape that's not the one I wished for
At the end of the beautiful spiral, let's admire the warped soul
In a kind moment, let's sing, carried on the rough wind
(Othello)
As I think, as I wish, it changes shape, as it's done
(Zoey and Othello)
What are you thinking, what are you wishing, what deception are you practicing, what are you talking about?
As I think, as I wish, it changes shape, as it's done
As it's distorted, as it's decorated, as it's refined, as you are!
"This isn't good." Jem said, Zoey pouted.
"I told you I didn't have the right voice for Rennie's songs." She said, biting her thumb nail nervously.
"Now what? You got another plan Blud?" Aja asked, Blud shook his head.
"I only thought that far ahead. Didn't know Zoey had a higher pitch voice." He said, Becky sat behind her drums wringing her drumsticks in her hand. Suddenly she dropped them.
"I got it!" she shouted, "Zoey didn't you write that song you and Ren sang back home?"
"Yeah; but that was when we were kids; what are you getting at?" Zoey asked.
"Write a song that you can sing; something that can be sung with your voice and still have the Metal edge to it that we do." She said.
"Yaknow Becky you're more clever than people give you credit for." Creepie said, Becky blushed.
"Gaw*, not really." She said embarrassed, Zoey pulled her wig off and sighed.
"This won't be easy; you say this thing is tomorrow?" she asked Jem.
"Yes, it's a really important concert to help Haven house." Jem said nodding. Zoey groaned.
"Well I better get to it then. If I start thinking now I'll have it before the concert even starts; but let's hope that Rennie is found by then." She said, then walked off.

"So Samantha; how have you been doing?" Riot asked, Samantha cut her eyes at him.
"Oh stuff it Riot I came down here for one reason; and that's to tell you to leave Ren and the others alone." She snapped, Riot made a face then smiled.
"But I have done nothing to them." He cooed. Samantha rolled her eyes.
"I know I may seem dumb but it's not too hard to figure out why you called me here; and it's never gonna happen." She said, Riot frowned.
"But Samantha we're a perfect match." He said, Samantha rolled her eyes.
(Perfect Match, Perfect match.)
Someone as wonderful as you.
Need someone as wonderful as me
(You need someone wonderful)
Baby, can't you see we're a perfect match, perfect match.
(We're a perfect match, perfect match)
Side by side, unified
We'll make an ideal pair (ideal Pair)
Where else can you find someone so good,
So right, so rare?
Someone half as good for you
No one is ever gonna be
(can't you see that' he's a perfect match together we could be a perfect match.
"Rory, you're a tool." Samantha said flatly. Riot gave her a confused look as she glared at him.
"You didn't think that stupid song was going to work did you? It may have before you put Hagane-sama's life in danger but that was then." She said.
I've been thinking that you've crossed the line,
if you disagree well that will be just fine,
cos you waste my time and waste my money
and you're not too cool and you're not so funny!
Spreading your seed all over the town
getting too greedy and messing around:
Oh my gosh you must be joking me
if you think that you'll be poking me.
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me ooon
Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know,
Don't try to deny cos my fuse is ready to blow
Its your turn to learn I think that you know where to go
It's a shame, shame, shame for you
With that she stood up and walked away then stopped turning toward him.
"Must suck getting turned down by two girls. How's that for the ego?"she said snidely then walked off leaving Riot a little more than embarrassed.

"Hey; Zipper guy." Ren said dryly, Zipper was standing outside of the room where Ren was. she could tell because there was a window so that he could check to make sure she wasn't up to something while still being safe from her wrath.
"Hey; this is serious listen to me!" she shouted, banging on the door, she had managed to get her hands in front of her. "Untie me!"
"Yeah like I'm gonna do that." Zipper shouted back, Ren rolled her eyes.
'no wonder Creepula could break into Raymond's office, this guy's an idiot.' She thought, "Listen buddy I doubt that creep of a man told you but I gots a medical condition." She said.
"Yeah and what might that be?" Zipper asked, Ren groaned.
"Don't matter what it is. Just untie me so I can get to my medicine." She growled. She heard a groan as well as the door unlocking. Zipper was soon in the room; Ren presented her cuffed hands to him silently demanding he un-cuff her. He did reluctantly, then watched as she reached into her pocket, pulling out the strange blue/green liquid in a bottle.
"You gotta staring problem or a Lolita complex?" she growled, glaring at him, Zipper's face turned red in frustration as he left.
'hmph, loser. And what the heck kind of name is 'Zipper?' she thought squirting the medicine down her throat. She then made sure the coast was clear then began to untie the ropes that kept her ankles together. She was well aware of the three cameras in the room and was sure that Tech-rat guy was watching her. He would no doubt see her and then tell Zipper to stop her. However when she got free instead of running to kick down the door—something she could easily do—she found the chair she was originally sitting in and sat down, crossing her legs patiently as she tore the hair bands out of her hair letting her long silver/white hair fall to her backside. (Ren's hair goes to about that length when doen, which makes her look much older.)
~0~
Tech-rat stared at his monitor with a shocked expression; Ren wasn't trying to break out, she was sitting patiently as if waiting for someone to save her.
"What is wrong with this girl?" he thought aloud, he made the camera zoom in to see what was going on a bit better, when Ren's Merlot eyes glowered at his camera.
"This girl….is creepier than me." He noted, zooming back out, he smirked, he knew there was a reason he liked that girl, which why he was going to let her be.
"Smart boy." Ren said over the camera's microphone, almost as if she had heard his thoughts.
End of chapter ten yay! Say does anyone know where the term 'Lolita' came from? A book called Lolita; I so badly want to read it. Hey come when did Lolita become a term for fashion? Was it from that same book? Anyhow today's music consisted of Poetaster and singing dolls by Hagane miku (I have the entire translation of that song in case someone wants them) perfect match by the Stinger, and Shame for you by lily allen. Review please! Ja-ne! oh does anyone know where I can find the romji and English lyrics to 'Okay green is the enemy?' by neru and rin?
PS-anyone else remember the annoying thing Eliza from 'My fair lady' would say? She just said it Xd
