After a few more songs, the show was almost over. The band left and there was only T.J. and Jason on stage.
"Okay, everyone. The show is almost over, but there is one song that I would like to share. This song is about my sister, Felicia." The spotlight shined on Felicia. "I know that most of the night, I have just been bashing her left and right. And I think she deserved it for making me miserable since we were twelve. But I want to reflect on the years before that. We were the best of friends. We could actually stand the sight of each other. We loved each other and I want to remind her of that. This is 'When She Loved Me.'"
A video started to play on the screen. It played videos and showed pictures of T.J. and Felicia when they were younger. Jason played the keyboard.
When somebody loved me,
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together lives within my heart
And when she was sad,
I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy,
So was I
When she loved me
Through the summer and the fall
We had each other, that was all
Just she and I together,
Like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely,
I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me
So the years went by
I stayed the same
But she began to drift away
I was left alone
Still I waited for the day
When she'd say I will always love you
Lonely and forgotten,
I'd never thought she'd look my way
And she smiled at me and held me just like she used to do
Like she loved me
When she loved me
When somebody loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together lives within my heart
When she loved me
Once the song ended, something awoke in Felicia's heart. She felt sad. She felt angry. Most of all, she felt guilty. Vanellope was right. She pushed T.J. away. She abandoned her and became something she hated. She then remembered her payback, but noticed that Max was gone. Before she could get up, it was too late. The video already began to play. T.J. and Jason were confused about what was happening. When the video was loaded, it showed Jason pacing back and forth in front of a closed door. A voice from behind the camera spoke.
"You nervous, bro?"
"That obvious? What's taking so long?" Jenny stepped into the shot.
"Don't worry, Jay. These things take time. It'll be over before you know it."
"I hope so. The suspense is torture." The door opened and T.J. stepped out. "Well?"
"Well...It looks like we...are going to be parents!"
"You're pregnant?"
"I'm pregnant!" Everyone screamed and cheered. Jason picked T.J. up and kissed her. The video ended and everyone was in shock. T.J.'s face lit up in embarrassment. She looked to her parents and saw the surprise and disappointment in their eyes. Jason held her close as she started to tear up. Bobby stood up on top of his chair.
"See that, everyone? Not only is she a freak, but a pregnant whore! The kid probably isn't even his!" Jason was about to jump off of the stage and beat Bobby's brains out right then and there, but T.J. held him back. She didn't want him to go off. Not yet, anyway. She stepped forward.
"Yeah. It's true. Jason and I are having a baby and it is his! We didn't want you guys to find out this way, but now you know. But the show's not over yet. Hey, Judy! Why don't you unveil our little surprise?" The seats around Bobby and his friends moved away from them. A long tube reaching up to the ceiling came down and surrounded Bobby and his friends. They were stunned for a moment before they started banging on the sides, trying to escape. T.J. picked up a remote from behind the curtain. A spotlight shined in the tube. Bobby was already angry.
"What the hell is this?" T.J. and Jason jumped down from the stage and approached the tube. T.J. smirked and turned her attention to the audience.
"Ladies and gentlemen! This is the Tube of Humiliation. This tube will simulate what I've been through in the past years because of this three jerks! All the tears shed from the emotional pain!" She pushed a button and the group was rained on by gallons of salt water. When the water stopped, they were drenched. They were spitting out the salty water. The water drained out through the floor. Jason took the remote.
"The code spilled from the physical pain you caused her by beating her and making her cut herself!" He pushed another button and they were rained on by fake code. They were covered in the sticky multicolored substance from head to toe. T.J. reclaimed the remote.
"The pain of being beaten without being able to defend myself!" She pushed the last button and boxing gloves with rocks in them fell upon them. They were pelted with blows to their bodies. The gloves stopped falling after a few minutes. Bobby and his friends were bruised, battered, and covered with fake code and salt water. T.J. slowly walked around the tube. "How does it feel to be beaten and humiliated? This is the feeling I've had since you've been plugged in. Doesn't feel good, does it?"
"When I get out of here, you're both dead!"
"That's what I thought. You can go through all the crap I went through and still won't feel a thing. You're nothing but a heartless little bully, and that's all you'll ever be. Just know that after today, I'm not afraid of you anymore and I seriously doubt anyone else will."
"You're such a little bitch! You won't even face me head on! You know that without this tube, I would tear you to shreds!"
"Yeah, because that's just what you want me to do. You want to beat me, maybe even kill me, in front of everyone. But guess what? I'm not going to give you the satisfaction and I'm sure as hell not going to put my own baby at risk. We're doing this on my terms, not yours. You brought this on yourself and you're going to take it."
"You bitch! You better let me out of here! NOW!"
"I don't think so. Hey, Casey! Why don't you help these guys cool down?"
"No prob, T.J.! These guys need to chill out!" Cold air started to blow in the tube. The sides started to mist. Bobby and his friends started to shiver and shake. The fake code started to stick and freeze to their bodies. T.J. took Jason's hand and they glitched to the stage.
"And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the end of our show! Goodnight!" They glitched back stage. Felix didn't know how to react to his daughter's actions. He was proud that she stood up to her bully, but a bit disappointed and shocked of how she did it. He turned to Tamora.
"Tammy? I'm not sure what to do about this? I'm proud for standing up for herself, but I don't approve of what she did."
"Well, I say they got what they deserved. Serves them right for beating up on her. I say we just let this one slide."
"But..." She placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Felix, she has been gone for months and she's finally coming home. We should just leave her be and be glad she's finally back."
"Well, I suppose we could let this go, but what about her pregnancy?"
"We'll talk about that later." T.J. and Jason came from back stage and approached the table. Vanellope jumped and glitched into T.J's arms.
"That was awesome! That's the most epic thing I've ever seen in my life!"
"It's nice to see you too, Vannie." She hugged the tiny racer, then put her down. Felicia approached T.J.
"Hey, T.J." T.J. crossed her arms over her chest.
"Hey. Still hate me and want me out of your life?"
"Well..." Before she could finish, there was a loud shattering noise. Everyone saw that Bobby had broken through the tube. He stood cold and angry, glaring at the two that trapped him.
"You freaks... ARE DEAD MEAT!"
"Run!" T.J. and Jason made a run for it. Bobby and his half-frozen gang ran after them. Vanellope glitched over onto Bobby's head.
"You leave my cousin alone!" She beat his head and scratched at his face.
"Get off, you little runt.!" He grabbed her and threw her off of him. She hit the wall hard and landed on the ground. Bobby kept running.
"Vanellope!" Ralph ran over to the fallen child and picked her up in his arms. "Kid! Are you okay?"
"Yeah, but my head and arm hurt." Felix and Tamora went over to them.
"Felix! Can you fix her?"
"Of course." He took out his hammer and tapped her head and arm.
"Oh, thank Mod. Don't you ever do that again!"
"You don't have to tell me twice. That hurt." Felicia made her way over to the group.
"Guys! Bobby's gonna kill T.J.!"
"Not on my watch! Wreck It! You follow them and find out where they're going! I'm going to gather some of my men! Do not let them lay a finger on my daughter!"
"Got it, Sarge!" He ran after them. Felix looked up to his wife.
"Tammy..."
"Felix, I don't want you to get hurt. You should go home."
"No! She is my daughter too, and I will do anything to protect her. I'll help you gather your men." Knowing he wouldn't back down, she nodded and they headed out on her cruiser. T.J and Jason were running for their lives through Game Central Station. They knew Bobby wasn't far behind. They would have to lose him and soon.
"T.J.! We have to get them off of our tails!"
"How? He's fuming mad! There's no way he'll let us out of his sight!"
"He can't catch both of us at the same time."
"What? No! We can't split up! It's too risky!"
"We don't have another choice! You head to the Main Plug. I'll lead him away from you."
"Jason! No!" He let go of her hand and stopped. She stopped as well. He had her look him in the eyes.
"We don't have a choice. We have to think about the baby. If one of us is going to make it, it has to be you." Tears were forming in her eyes.
"I don't want to lose you. I love you."
"I love you, too. And I promise that I'll come back and we can be a family. Just the three of us."
"You promise?"
"Yes, I promise. We don't have much time. Go! Head for the Plug! Go! Now!" She kissed him one last time, then ran for the Plug. She didn't look back. She knew if she did, she would never make it. Jason stood where he was and waited. He didn't wait long before Bobby caught up with him. Bobby saw that Jason was alone and got even angrier.
"Where's the other freak?!"
"Far from here. This is what you wanted, isn't it? A rematch. Just you and me." Bobby smirked at him.
"Oh, yeah. I'm going to enjoy this."
T.J. ran and glitched to the Main ran and ran until she came to a dead-end. She was at the end of the Plug. In the time she lived there, she had never been that far. It was a dangerous place to be. She was practically at the wall outlet. What made that place dangerous was the Static Trench. It sent power to all the games. If you fell in, you would be disintegrated. T.J. wasn't worried about that. She was worried about the approaching voices she heard.
We are right back where we started. T.J. at a dead-end, scared out of her mind, wondering about her lover and worrying for her unborn child. Even if Bobby didn't kill her, he would definitely kill the baby from the damage of her own body. She was starting to think she took her revenge a little too far. Bobby had finally reached her.
"You're mine now, freak!"
Nice cliffhanger, right? Anyways, sorry for the long update. I don't have a computer, so I started using my mom's laptop. That means there will be more updates of my stories this summer.
In other news, I have finally graduated from high school! It feels so good to finally be done with that place. Now I need to decided my next step in life.
