Okay, this is going to be a little 'out of the blue' for me...that's right I'm putting a song in a chapter...no, it's not a VERY famous song...but it does fit...mostly. Anywho, before I do put it in, I want you to realize that it fits with Syler and MAYBE 635, but no other experiment. Anywho, the next chapter I'm doing the same way, but I won't get into that right now. Now lets get to the chapter before my brain goes numb again...on to the chapter!
A faint light filled the commons area room, coming from a single TV in the corner. In front of it sat Syler, who's favorite band (from the planet he was supposed to be on, which is Earth) was playing a concert. (A/N: The one in Texas...btw, the band is Linkin Park.) The words of the song reverberated in his mind even after the song was over, and he thought of how it applied to his life.
I'm tired of being what you want me to be,
Feeling so faithless,
Lost under the surface.
I don't know what you're expecting of me,
Put under the pressure
Of walking in your shoes.
(Caught in the undertow,
Just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take
Is another mistake to you.
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there.
Become so tired
So much more aware.
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you.
Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly
Afraid to lose control.
Cause everything that you though I would be
Has fallen apart
Right in front of you.
(Caught in the undertow,
Just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take
Is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow,
Just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste
Is more than I can take.
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there.
Become so tired
So much more aware.
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you.
And I know
I may end up failing too.
But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you.
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there.
Become so tired
So much more aware.
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you.
I've
become so numb
I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be.
I've
become so numb
I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be.
The resemblance to how he felt was eerie for him. Nothing ever came this close to him, not even Tria. He quickly decided that this was now his favorite song, and proceeded memorize it. A few songs later, he grabbed the cd he had been recording the whole concert on and hurried back to his room. Another experiment stepped out of a shadow and shook his head.
The next day, Syler was again wearing his somewhat cheery façade while 636, who had in fact been watching the concert and continued watching the music videos for those songs AND other LP songs, was humming Breaking the Habit to himself. Mediator, who didn't know any Linkin Park songs, was listening closely. Lilo was trying to get Keoni's attention, but he was plotting again with Tria. Jumba burst into the room, looking somewhat furious.
"Okay, who has the being the stealing ginpgonp ball?" he inquired. Keoni and Tria snickered while a lobster like experiment pinched Stitch, who jumped up. "Ah, 650. In that case, you are the not being the allowed to going to outside of lab." Afterwards, Stitch glared silently at Syler whenever he wasn't looking.
"Hey, why are you staring at Syler like it's his fault?" Lilo asked. Stitch didn't take his eyes off of Syler.
"I need someone to blame and he's always a good scapegoat. I'm innocent, I don't even know where he keeps his ginpgonp balls." Stitch said, growling slightly with the first part. Syler heard this and was getting angry. But no one paid attention as at that time, 635 started tapping his fingers on the table in a very rhythmic fashion that sounded oddly like a train passing.
Okay, somewhat un-actioney chapter here, but it leads to a very surprising event...I won't say anymore. Anywho, nothing more to say here. Please review!
