Im back! Hopefully I can sit and write soon as my summer break is coming up.
Well onward to chapter 11 of what I label ASOP. This is before Phantom planet, but other than that no clue where on the timeline it is. This is set in the summer sometime.
As usual
Danny singing
Other people
Both Danny and other people
Danny sat at the top of what was now designated "Phantom's tree", he liked this particular tree better than most of the others because it was located on a hill, looking down at the group of people standing below. From the looks of things they did not know he was sitting up here. Danny smiled he loved to people watch, and by sitting high in the tree no one would see him and few thought to look up, even near places he was known to be in his spare time. He watched as the group below him started to arrange themselves facing away from his tree going down the hill in a fashion reminiscent of bleachers. As he watched they started to sing a song he was very familiar with.
We are young!
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
But we don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart
One person stepped forward with the clear intention of singing the next part solo. Danny stood up from his perch and took a deep breath, and a second before the lone person began to sing Danny started to sing the next part of the song.
I see the children in the rain like the parade before the pain.
I see the love; I see the hate; I see this world that we can make!
I see the life I see the sky. Give it all to see you fly...
Yes, we wave this flag of hatred, but you're the ones who made it!
Watch the beauty of all our lies passing right before my eyes.
I hear the hate in all your words all the wars to make us hurt
We get so sick, we're so sick; we never wanted all this
Medication for the kids with no reason to live!
Everyone standing below him jumped at his voice, he merely smirked and continued to sing.
So we
March to the drums of the damned as we come
Watch it burn in the sun - we are numb!
The next group nearly missed their cue they were so shocked to hear him singing from the top of the tree, but they picked up the song after a minor flub.
We are young!
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
But we don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart
As we walk among these shadows, in these streets, these fields of battle
Take it up, we wear the medal, raise your hands with burning candles.
Hear us whisper in the dark, in the rain you see the spark
Feel the beating of our hearts fleeting hope as we depart
All together, walk alone against all we've ever known
All we've ever really wanted was a place to call our home
But you take all we are; the innocence of our hearts.
Made to kneel before the altar as you tear us apart!
So we
March to the drums of the damned as we come
Watch it burn in the sun - we are numb!
We are young!
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
But we don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We will fight or we will fall
'til the angels save us all
We will fight or we will fall
'til the angels save us all
We will fight or we will fall
'til the angels save us all
We will fight or we will fall
'til the angels save us all...
We are young!
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
But we don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are young!
But we have heart
Born in this world as it all falls apart
We are strong
But we don't belong
Born in this world as it all falls apart
Danny smiled as half of the assembled people spun in place after the song finished to look at him. The other half was evenly split between collapsing where they stood and just rolling their eyes, Danny assumed that the ones that rolled their eyes had at least known that there was a chance that he would be there thus they were unworried. Danny merely smiled at them and waved his hand for them to continue. One person blinked a few times before he got out a whistle, he was one of the ones who were unsurprised by his appearance, and blew it to get the rests attention. The rest jumped to attention and resumed their spots on the hill. Danny merely sat at the top of the tree this time deciding not to join in.
There is a crying in the nightfall.
There is a howling in the wind.
And when the urge is getting stronger.
We hit the streets, the city calls.
The night is free for all.
We rule the dark and we do as we please.
And nothing can stop us.
No time to catch some Z's.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Fighting for the right to be.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Templars of the first degree.
We never minded any warnings.
Or asked directions from the stars.
And when the moon stops it's ascending.
We feel the rush, the inner glow.
The crimson will flow.
We have the might, and the power to succeed
And nothing can stop us.
'Cause we're the restless breed.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Fighting for the right to be.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Templars of the first degree.
And when our allegiance is falling down.
We will crawl back from hell.
Reclaim the crown.
The sign is shining for us.
Its glow will lead us on our way.
When we are led astray.
No, no!
We rule the dark and we do as we please.
And nothing can stop us.
No time to catch some Z's.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Fighting for the right to be.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Templars of the first degree.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Fighting for the right to be.
Howlin' With The 'Pac.
Templars of the first degree
Danny smiled at the end of the song and watched as the group got ready to leave. Some of them looked up at him and waved before they started down the hill. Deciding to give them a send off Danny stood up in the tree, and began to sing. He startled a few of the people walking down the hill, and some fell down as they tried to spin in place.
Last day of the rest of my life
I wish I would've known
Cause I didn't kiss my mama goodbye
I didn't tell her that I loved her and how much I care
Or thank my pops for all the talks
And all the wisdom he shared
Unaware, I just did what I always do
Everyday, the same routine
Before I skate off to school
But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest
Instead of taking a test
I took two to the chest
Call me blind, but I didn't see it coming
Everybody was running
But I couldn't hear nothing
Except gun blasts, it happened so fast
I don't really know this kid
Even though I sit by him in class
Maybe this kid was reaching out for love
Or maybe for a moment
He forgot who he was
Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged
Whatever it was
I know it's because
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
Little Suzy, she was only twelve
She was given the world
With every chance to excel
Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell
She might act kind of proud
But no respect for herself
She finds love in all the wrong places
The same situations
Just different faces
Changed up her pace since her daddy left her
Too bad he never told her
She deserved much better
Johnny boy always played the fool
He broke all the rules
So you would think he was cool
He was never really one of the guys
No matter how hard he tried
Often thought of suicide
It's kind of hard when you ain't got no friends
He put his life to an end
They might remember him then
You cross the line and there's no turning back
Told the world how he felt
With the sound of a gat
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
Who's to blame for the lives that tragedies claim
No matter what you say
It don't take away the pain
That I feel inside, I'm tired of all the lies
Don't nobody know why
It's the blind leading the blind
I guess that's the way the story goes
Will it ever make sense
Somebody's got to know
There's got to be more to life than this
There's got to be more to everything
I thought exists
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
We are, We are, the youth of the nation
Danny jumped from his spot in the tree and did a quick loop before flying towards his home. His singing partners were shocked when snowflakes fell from the tree and landed on their heads. A few shivered as the snow fell around them forming a blanket of white around the tree in the middle of summer.
Songs are Young by Hollywood Undead,Howling with the pack by Hammerfall, Youth of the Nation by P.O.D.
I will eventually get the next chapter Phantoms Justice posted once I figure out where I want to go in the story. As it is I know that this chapter will explain more on what happened to Danny during his time captured by the GIW. Please if you have a comment on another story do not post it here.
