Hello! As usual, I own no characters (they belong to Sega and/or Archie, Fliara belongs to k0m0d0-342, Aurora belongs to Knux Girl, and Cathy Lynn belongs to Isu!) Now let's continue tonight's entertainment! Chapter 4!
Now people began to either eat their dinner, or just help themselves to the snack tables at the back end of the show room. Unless some of the others still planed to sing, then they would wait until they had performed. The hands rose in the audience again, and Sonic picked the first one he saw.
"Well, it looks like you're next, Fliara!"
A female red dragon with orange hair, who was about the same size as Amy, walked onto the stage. Most of the audience recognized her from performing in the last karaoke night. So did Sonic and the others. She picked up her mike.
"Hey there, everybody! It's great to be back! What's my theme, Sonic?"
As he reached into the bowl, he noticed Fliara giving him a gazing stare as if saying 'It better be a good one…' Sonic just looked away and picked out a slip of paper.
"……Well, well Fliara. Looks like you got luck this time. Your theme is………… 'Wild Card'!"
She looked at him confusingly.
"It means that you get to pick your own theme!" he explained.
A grin formed on her face. "Now that, I can live with! In that case, my theme will be………… 'My Fighting Spirit'!"
Everyone looked at her feeling interested. The band began with a loud rock melody that sounded like slow battle music. Fliara waited until the intro was over, and she began as the band followed:
"Two worlds collide-rival nations,
It's a primitive clash, venting years of frustration!
Bravely we hope against all hope,
There is so much at stake, seems our freedom's up against the ropes!
Does the crowd understand?
Is it east verses west, or man against man?
Can any nation stand alone?"
"In the burning heart, just about to burst,
There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst!
In the darkest night, rising like a spire,
In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire!"
"In the warriors code, there's no surrender,
Though his body says 'stop', his spirit cries 'NEVER'!
Deep in our souls, a quiet ember,
'Cause its you against you; it's the paradox that drives us on!
It's a matter of wills.
In the heat of attack, it's the passion that kills!
The victory is yours alone!"
"In the burning heart, just about to burst,
There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst!
In the darkest night, rising like a spire,
In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire!"
The band did their solo, and suddenly, a few robots stepped onto the back area of the stage behind Fliara, and began to act like they were battling! It definitely set the mood a lot better!
"In the burning heart, just about to burst,
There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst!
In the darkest night, rising like a spire,
In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire!"
"In the burning heart, just about to burst,
There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst!
In the darkest night, rising like a spire,
In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire!"
"In the burning heart…"
The band ended, and the robots disappeared behind the curtain. Fliara received her applause and walked off the stage, feeling quite satisfied with her performance. Sonic began to look for the next person.
"Next person! I need the next person, please!"
Sonic spotted who reacted first. Actually, three people raise their hands at the same time! One of them Sonic recognized. It was Necronos! He was wearing his usual cloak and face hiding hood (blue eyes). But the two others he never saw before. So he decided called them all up!
"How about you three right there!"
Necronos walked up as the two others followed. One of them was a female gerbil. Her fur was magenta with dread style hair, and her eyes were purple. She wore a mid-thigh length yellow dress with two baby blue bows, one on her head, and one tied near the end of her long tail. The other was a female fox. She had blonde fur and brown eyes. She wore a blue tank and blue plaid skirt. She looked a little nervous though. The three of them introduced themselves.
Necronos spoke first. "Hi everyone! Like Fliara said, it's great to be back here!"
The gerbil was next. "Hello there, people! My name's Aurora! I'll admit that I don't do this too often, but I'll do my best!" she said cheerfully.
Lastly, the fox introduced herself. "Um…hi everyone," she said shyly. "I'm Cathy Lynn. I'm Rachel's best friend…"
"Yeah you are! Do a good job, girlfriend! YEAH!" Rachel suddenly shouted form the audience. Cathy then smiled and blushed lightly.
Sonic picked out the next theme. "OK you three. Your theme is going to be………… 'Your favorite song to play at the beach'!"
Cathy suddenly became excited and came up with a good one. She whispered it to Aurora and Necronos. They agreed with her choice.
Suddenly, Necronos began to glow. He was using his magic again. In a flash of light, he created a copy of himself! The girls looked surprised!
The two Necronos' spoke in unison. "We'll sing the back up!"
The girls them smiled, and took their positions on the stage. It appeared Cathy was very shy anymore. Aurora seemed to like that. The band got started, and so did they:
(A) "Ooh, ooh! Ah, here we go now, oh!"
(N1) "Like the great poets Homer, Agamemnon, or even Zeus,
We takin' a vibical expedition this pop diddy we choose!
(C & N2) "So be calm, don't ring the alarm, you see,
'Cause we go on and on, come come come follow me Britney!"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(A) "We might start riding to the music tonight,
A clever way to get by, oh.
(C) The pops keep flowin' like its fire and ice,
So give it a little blind, so…"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(A) "We have a plan, we have a definite plan (to level the vibes, vibes)
To level the vibes again, oh yeah.
(C) See, where ya bu-du for a superlative self, oh yeah,
A wicked time to the end, oh yeah, so…"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(A) "So much pop we're losin', sittin' watchin' the clock,
(C) So turn the table baby, let's go over the top.
(A & C) No one else will do,
I'm waiting for you,
So show me wha'cha got, just take a pop shot,
And we will never stop, shu-bop shu-bop!"
Now they all started to dance to the lyrics during the second half:
"The clock is tickin' and we can't stop,
(N1 & 2) Open a soda pop, bop shu-bop shu-bop,
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
(C) Girls, we need him like we've never before,
And lovin' it til we drop (we drop, we drop yeah!)
(A) We'll flex tonight until they break down the door,
The party will never stop, so, so…"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(N1) "I bet you can pop like we've never popped before,
Why we keep comin' back for more and more for sure!
(N2) It's cool Britney when we get down on the floor, yeah,
(C & N2) 'Cause we go on and on until the break of dawn!"
(N1 & 2) "Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!
Open a soda pop, bop-a shu-bop shu-bop!
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
(N1) "All we gotta do is just-,
(N1 & N2) Open a soda pop, watch it fizz and pop, (A&C: Oh yeah!)
The clock is tickin' and we can't stop!"
The crowd cheered, and everybody took their bows. The girls high-fived each other for a good job. And so did the Necronos', then they became one again. They all then sat back down.
"Boy, hearing that made me thirsty!" Sonic said. He got himself a cola and sat back down. "So, who's up next? Don't be shy!"
This time Knuckles, Espio, and Mighty's hands shot up at the same time. Sonic quickly glanced at the next theme, and was glad that he drew it.
"Alright, you guys! Come on down!"
The three of them did as they were told. They had a feeling they knew what they were going to do…
"OK guys. Your theme is………… 'Boy band'!"
Knuckles saw that coming! Why else would Sonic ask him, Espio and Mighty to come up at the same time? Anyway, they smiled and positioned themselves (Knuckles up front, and Espio and Mighty standing by Knuckles' right and left two feet back), and the music began:
'RIIIING!'
(Voice: Girl) "Hello?"
(Voice: Boy) "Hi! It's me! What's up, baby?
I'm sorry, listen, I'm going to be late tonight so don't stay up and wait for me, ok?"
"Where are you?"
"Wait, say that again?"
"Hello?"
"You're really dropping out. I think my battery must be low.
Listen, if you can hear me we're going to a place nearby, alright? Gotta go!"
'CLICK!'
(K) "Let me tell you the story, 'bout the call that changed my destiny.
Me and my boys went out, just to end up in misery.
Was about to go home, when there she was standin' in front of me,
I said 'Hi' 'I got a little place nearby……Wanna go?'
I should've said 'No, someone's waitin' for me,'
But I called my girl up and said-"
(ALL) "Listen baby I'm sorry, just wanna tell you don't worry,
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me!
Say again, you're dropping out, my battery is low, just so you know,
We're goin' to a place nearby. Gotta go!"
(K) "Now two years gone, nothings been won,
I can't take it back, what's done is done.
But one of her friend found out, that she wasn't my only one.
And it eats me from inside, that she's not by my side,
Just because I made that call and lied!"
(ALL) "Listen baby I'm sorry, just wanna tell you don't worry,
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me!
Say again, you're dropping out, my battery is low, just so you know,
We're goin' to a place nearby. Gotta go!"
(SFX) 'RIIIING!'
"Listen baby, I'm sorry…"
'BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!'
"Hello?…hello?…hello?…"
'RIIIING!'
"Listen baby, I'm sorry…"
'BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!'
"Hello?…hello?…hello?…"
"Gotta go!"
(ALL) "Let me tell you the story, 'bout the call that changed my destiny.
Me and my boys went out, just to end up in misery.
Was about to go home, when there she was standin' in front of me,
I said 'Hi' 'I got a little place nearby'…… 'Gotta goooooooo…'
(ALL) "Listen baby I'm sorry, just wanna tell you don't worry,
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me!
Say again, you're dropping out, my battery is low, just so you know,
We're goin' to a place nearby. Gotta go!"
(ALL) "Listen baby I'm sorry! Just wanna tell you don't worry!
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me!
Say again, you're dropping out, my battery is low! Just so you know,
We're goin' to a place nearby. We're goin' to a place nearby. Gotta go!" 'CLICK!'
Then came the applause. The girls cheered the loudest this time (couldn't ya tell?) The boys took their bows, and high-fived each other before sitting back down.
"Just wait until the ladies come running for your autographs, fellas!" Knuckles and the guys just snickered.
"Well, this night just keeps better and better, doesn't it folks?" Sonic asked.
Everyone cheered in response. "Which brings me to my next question: WHO'S NEXT?"
Tune innext time for more, everybody! And thanks to all of you so far who have allowed me to include your characters! You all are makin' this night ROCK! R&R!
