A/N : After a brief moment of silence in the rock world of Mobius (WTF?) the Mobians are back with more epic song, now requested by duskzilla!
BTW, since I haven't (and probably, due to lack of proper platform, can't) I can only do normal Sonic. So, sorry about that. I can't send any PM to warn you about it, because you're an anonymous reviewer.
But I'll try Shads vs. Mephy
Here goes…
Disclaimer : I own neither the games nor the songs. I do own my OCs. Eclipse is owned by duskzilla.
Chapter 11 : Home, Sweet Home Ala- I mean Mobius
Sonic couldn't believe he had just lost from his twin-tailed best friend on the game. He could've sworn Tails totally Full Combo-ed the long solo section.
"Well, I played the song before with Tails Doll" said the fox.
The Devil Went Down To Georgia, probably one of the hardest song, even almost as hard as Through the Fire and Flames, Sonic couldn't believe Tails' skills suddenly surpassed his in just one day…
"Well, at least I'm gonna beat Eclipse."
Just then, a white furred hedgehog came inside the workshop. He had his own guitar controller on his back. "You're gonna beat who, now?" he challenged.
"You." Sonic answered.
"Ha. Good luck with that."
"Okay, you two. Happy rocking, and try not to break anything mine." Said Tails, eyeing at Eclipse's dark red spiked shoes.
"What? It's not like I'm gonna kick your ornaments randomly, Tails…"
"Uh-huh. Sure…"
Cosmo approached Tails, with 2 popcorn bags, one on each hand. Cosmo gave Tails one of the bag and sat on the sofa. Tails quickly joined her as Eclipse and Sonic selected the song to play.
"I guess someone already booked a gig."
Levinski appeared on the doorstep along with Starlight. Tails was delighted to see his brother coming over, but suddenly remembered their deal, "Oh, sorry. I forgot to tell you that Sonic and Eclipse are…"
"Don't worry about it. At least we're gonna enjoy the show, right Star?"
"Sure!" exclaimed Starlight, she turned to Cosmo "By the way, can you share the popcorns?"
"Well, of course" the Seedrian answered.
Sonic || Eclipse – Sweet Home Alabama(live) by Lynyrd Skynyrd
"Ready to lose, werehog?" said Sonic.
"You were a werehog yourself, Sonic" replied Eclipse.
The song started in a small easy pattern that changes as the time went. It ended with a zig-zag hammer on, followed with hold notes and went back to the intro pattern. They got an early Star Power on the in-between notes. The pattern continued as the verse came.
# Bi-g whe-els keep on- turn-in'
Carry me ho-me to see my- kin
Singin' so-ngs about the south-land
I miss Alaba-ma my once again, and I think it's a sin #
The pattern became a bit different as the chords end every hammer ons part. It didn't last though, as the pattern changed back to normal when the second part of the verse came.
# Well, I heard mister Yo-ung sing- about- her
Well, I heard old Ne-il put- her down
Well, I hope Neil Yo-ung will- remem-ber
A south-ern man don't need him aro-und anymore #
The pattern was more chordy. Sonic and Eclipse missed some notes as they tried to adapt with the changes,
# Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Where- the skies- are- so blue
Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Lord I'm coming ho-me to you #
The pattern changed a lot more. Eclipse wasn't able to adapt as soon as Sonic did. His scores were left behind soon enough.
# In Birming- ham- they love- the governor
Boo- boo- boo- Now we all did- what we could do
Now Watergate does not bo-ther- me
Does your conscience bo-ther you?
Tell the truth #
As the chorus came back, Eclipse was left even further behind,
# Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Where- the skies- are- so blue
Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Lord I'm coming ho-me to you
Here I come…
Alabama… #
Eclipse used his Star Power to catch up and left Sonic behind in several seconds. "Damnit Eclipse!" Sonic cursed, "Alright, I'm gonna catch up with you and leave you faaaaaar away. You'll see!"
Sonic soon found it easier said than done though, as the note suddenly became a bunch of full hammer on zig-zags
# There is good people in Alabama
Let Mister Young know it too #
Eclipse missed the note as the zig zag stopped into a constant yellow-blue-orange hammer ons. Sonic on the other hand was able to keep up with the pattern, but strangely not when the zig-zags turned to single note strumming that changed pitch over time. It then stopped on blue, where the period of strumming became longer.
# Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h.
Alabama! #
The note became zig-zag again… thunks were heard as both hedgehogs missed.
# Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h.
Alabama!
Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h.
Alabama!
Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h.
Alabama! #
At that point, where Eclipse missed the Star Power, Sonic hit it all and quickly activated the star power on the full awkward hammer ons
# Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h, Aaaaaaa~h.
Alabama! #
The guitar then turned to the chordy bridge between verse and chorus. It reverted back to the non-chordy though.
# Now muscle shoals- has got the swamp-ers
And they been known- to pick a song or two
Yes, they do!
But Lord they get me off- so- much
They pick me up when I'm fee-lin' blue
now how 'bout you? #
Sonic and Eclipse now had a close scores. The chorus came back again.
# Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Where- the skies- are- so blue
Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Lord I'm coming ho-me to you
One more baby… #
Eclipse was caught by surprise as suddenly a three note chord appeared, and Sonic overstrummed, causing him to lose the hold and the multiplier.
# Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Oh, sweet home baby…
Where- the skies- are- so blue
And the governor's true…
Swe-et ho-me A-laba-ma
Lo-rd, yeah…
Lord I'm coming ho-me to you
Whoo!
Yeah… yeah… #
The fretboards were soon flooded with chords and some singles in-between. Eclipse almost missed the notes, but managed to not missing them.
As the song progressed, the bridge came back, and the hedgehogs were more ease scoring the song.
# Come on oakey…
Meet Atlanta #
Suddenly, a pair of three note chords came, almost missed. Hammer ons came next as the hedgehogs tried their best to adapt. Several strum errors were sounded, and a snicker was heard from the back, only to make the mistakes worse.
The solo keeps going on and on and on and on, causing fingers to grow sore as the frets were pushed and the strums were almost abandoned.
# Hold it! #
Since the strum buttons were almost abandoned, as said before, the hedgehogs missed the three chord.
# Oooooooooo~h!
Sweet Alabama-!
I've done all I could do for yoooouuu~ #
The notes were unusually transformed into three chord fast strums, resting the fret fingers and forcing the strum hands to do their best not to miss any note, or overstrumming.
As the song over, the hedgehogs fell down, exhausted as they held their right, sore hands.
/Player Two Rocks!\
"I won…" said Eclipse.
"Wow, I guess I'm out of season now…" Sonic muttered, "Very well, I'll beat you all up next time! I guarantee! One question though…"
"And what would that be?"
"Where exactly is Alabama?"
Eclipse looked at the blue hedgehog, "The hell kind of question is that?"
"I don't know. Perhaps we should dub it into something like 'Sweet Home Mobius'"
"Not 'Sweet Home Green Hill?'"
There was a silence for a little bit, until Levinski interrupted, "Oookay! What's the next song? I wanna play!"
A/N : Alright, next song is Open Your Heart. And the next song after that is… try searching on the bottom of my profile…
Duskzilla, if you want your character to stay there for awhile, you can ask.
