Someone asked about this Imagine Dragons song, so enjoy your request! I thought it would be fun if Amy and Timothy sang this with Sofia, Amber, Lucinda, Dorrie, and Candice as they learned a favorite castle game. It might be a way for Amy to get to know the royal siblings better, since their first meeting on Hexley Hall's Prank Day. Imagine Dragons is not mine.
Now that she was living in the castle following her adoption, Amy was walking around and getting to know everyone. She paused as she heard a song coming from James' room. She stopped outside his door and saw him working on a crossword puzzle. When the song ended, he put a new one on.
At the same time, Timothy, Dorrie, and Candice came up. "Amy, we see you're watching James mop the floor with another crossword puzzle!" Candice grinned.
"He's good," Amy grinned. "I'll have to have him go against Kurt one of these days."
Meanwhile, James started singing, First things first
I'mma say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of the way that things have been, oh ooh
The way that things have been, oh ooh
"He did, during Hexley Hall's Prank Day," Amber smirked. "But this time it'll be for fun."
"Speaking of pranks, watch James' left hand," Lucinda whispered as she motioned for everyone to follow her. "I'll let you know when we make our move."
"Make our move for what?" Timothy asked.
"Just watch," Lucinda smirked. As she spoke, she watched James start tapping his fingers to the beat of the song. "Now!"
As she slipped into the room with everyone, Amy grinned as she heard one of her favorite songs and joined in, Second things second
Don't you tell me what you think that I could be
I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea, oh ooh
The master of my sea, oh ooh
James looked up when he heard her voice and felt Lucinda tapping his shoulder as the three of them sang together, I was broken from a young age
Taking my sulking to the masses
Writing my poems for the few
That look at me, took to me, shook to me, feeling me
Singing from heartache from the pain
Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain
Seeing the beauty through the...
Amber, Amy, Candice, Dorrie, Lucinda, Sofia, and Timothy joined him on the chorus as they started tapping their fingers on his sides and spine to the beat. Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
Pain!
Oh let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
James laughed as he tried to swat their hands away, but Amber caught his wrist as she sang with him, Third things third
Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that you've heard has turned your spirit to a dove, oh ooh
Your spirit up above, oh ooh
Dorrie and Candice grinned as they joined in, I was choking in the crowd
Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till it broke open and rained down
And rained down, like...
The girls and Timothy joined in, Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
Pain!
Oh let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
"And I thought Prank Day was fun," Amy grinned as Lucinda cast a Tickling Charm on James.
"Dad! Baileywick! Help me!" James shouted as he saw Roland and Baileywick pass by.
"Daddy and Baileywick are busy; they don't have time for your foolishness," Amber teased him.
"Have fun, girls, and Timothy," Roland said as he continued walking. "And James, it's nice to see you taking a break from papers with a crossword puzzle!"
Baileywick entered, but instead of joining the game, and pretending to ignore it, he collected the finished papers. "Thank you for all your help, Prince James," he said as he left with them, "I'll be back later for the rest."
"Baileywick!" James yelled after him.
As he and the girls joined in the game, Timothy took the last verse, Last things last
By the grace of the fire and the flames
You're the face of the future, the blood in my veins, oh ooh
The blood in my veins, oh ooh
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till it broke open and rained down
And rained down, like...
By now, James was laughing so hard he couldn't continue singing. Amy also grinned as she picked up his crossword puzzle book, which had slipped off the bed.
The girls and Timothy mussed his hair as they finished the song, Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
Pain!
Oh let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
"James, what do you say you and Kurt go head to head in a crossword puzzle?" Amy suggested.
"Okay! I beat him once, I can do it again!" James laughed under them.
