Chapter 50: New Year's Eve

Gardevoir's POV, New Year's Eve

We wake up. We are still exhausted from the night before, but get up. I start to get dressed. "We are singing at Times Square tonight," Calem says.

"Okay. What are we singing?"

"Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana, sung by me, Radioactive by Imagine Dragons, sung by you, and Don't Stop Believin' by Voyage, sung by me and you."

I giggle. "I don't know them."

He turns into Gallade and grabs my arms. I see lyrics in my head. "Who's playing?"

"We're vocals, Genesect is drums, Pikachu's base, and Luke and Miranda are guitar."

"Sounds good."

I put my hoodie on, finishing my outfit. "You have to be in human form the whole time."

I nod. I walk out in human form. I look at the mirror. I put makeup on. I apply eyeliner. We're a rock band. I have to blend in. I go downstairs and into the music room. I flip a switch on the wall, making it like a concert would look like. I see a drum set, a microphone, a base, and two guitars. I go to the microphone and start singing. "Oooooohhhhhhhh oooohhhhhh oooohhhh ohhhhhhhhhh."

I sing Radioactive. I hear clapping and see Miranda. "Yes. That was good."

Calem, Genesect, and Luke walk in. We all get on the stage. I hand the mic to Calem. The band starts playing grunge. Calem sings Smells Like Teen Spirit. When they stop, I get ready. I sing Radioactive. When I finish, I put the mic on the stand. Calem steps next to me. We sing Don't Stop Believin'. We stop and cheer for ourselves. "We're ready."

I kiss Calem. I use Psychic to get the eyeliner off. I can use moves while in human form and call Armageddon at will. I release and leave the house. In fourteen hours, we will perform at eleven o'clock. I get breakfast ready and eat fast. I go shopping for party poppers. I come back thirty minutes later to have Storm Master pointed at me and Armageddon given to me. I go to the Training Room with Calem. I swing Armageddon clashing with Storm. I spin my blade in a circle, creating a black wind that blows him back. "Good luck getting past the winds of hell."

He points his sword at me. A lightning bolt shoots out, hitting me square in the chest. I am shocked, literally, at it. "My Zeus bolt is stronger than that."

I smirk and clash again. I see my vision blurring. I see Alexandria hold the sword up, making skulls rain down. "The hell fire rain."

I see again and am on the floor. I am at sword point. I hold my sword up, making it glow purple. A skull hits Calem in the back of the head. He rubs his head. "What the hell?!"

"Exactly. The hell fire rain."

I let Calem get pelted by skulls and I cut his hands off and stab him through the hearts. The life leaves the hologram's eyes and Calem respawns behind me. "Good job you beat me and learned a move."

I sheath Armageddon and hug Calem. My hologram body falls apart with his. I wake up in the chamber. I get out and kiss Calem, who is waiting. My virtual character is still disappearing, but I hug Calem tighter. I check the clock. "Fuck! Ten thirty! Time goes fast."

I run out and see the moon. I gather the band and everyone else. We enter the TARDIS and change human. We fly to Times Square and arrive at ten fifty. I get on stage with Calem, Genesect, Luke, Pikachu, and Miranda. "Hello!" Calem shouts into the mic. "We are the Lords of Time! We are going to sing three songs. Smells Live Teen Spirit, Radioactive, and Don't Stop Believin'!"

I take the mic. "We aren't from here, but we can tell that you already are a great audience. Get ready for Smells Like Teen Spirit, sung by Calem!"

Genesect bangs his drumsticks and shouts, "2, 3, 4!"

Calem starts singing the song and I bring out a base guitar and start playing the notes I see in my mind. Calem finishes and I take over. "Now for sing number two, sung by me, Jeanine! Radioactive!"

I start singing. The crowd quiets down and I see them waving their and in the air. I end the song greatly and I put the mic on the stand. Calem and I speak together. My hoodie gets hot, so I take it off and through it to the crowd. People reach for it and grab it. "For our last song tonight, Don't Stop Believin', sung by us!"

The band starts playing and we start singing. We trade parts and we finish together. The crowd goes wild and I look at the time. "It's almost midnight! Thirty seconds."

We get off the stage and find Luna, Blade, and Clementine. "Five, four, three, two, one! HAPPY NEW YEAR!"

I kiss Calem immediately. A news crew finds us kissing. Luke and Miranda are also making out. "Looks like you're busy Calem and Jeanine."

I release. "No. We just got caught up in the moment."

"Well, follow us to the stand."

We follow and I see my hoodie. I grab it and sling it over my shoulder. I get on stage and people are pouring two glasses of wine. I get handed one and I take a sip. Calem does too. I feel woozy after a sip, so I stop. "So, Jeanine, are these your kids?"

I nod. "What are their names?"

I gesture to each as I say each name. "This is Clementine, the oldest, Blade, the most energetic, Luna, the most shy, and Alvin, the youngest. Clementine and Alvin are adopted, but I gave birth to these two buggers," I say, rubbing Luna and Blade's hair.

They smile and laugh. "So, how old are they?"

"Clementine is nearly twelve, Blade is almost two, Luna is almost one and a half, and Alvin is a few months old."

"Where do you live?"

"A remote place in the United Kingdom. We get our western accents from shows."

"That's all, but how will you get home?"

I shrug. "I don't know."

"Well, get home safely. Goodbye."

Calem is doing away at his wine and gets it taken away. He wobbles and I catch him. I keep him stable and I get him to the TARDIS. We get in and start it. Calem is resting on my shoulder. I get us home and get to bed. I change clothes and change to pokemon form. Calem is already asleep. I wrap my arms around him and fall asleep.
