Bedazzled: The Ron Factor – Chapter Three
"Okay…I'm ready to make my first wish!" Ron said after a few long moments of thought, "I wish that I…Was very, very rich and very popular!"
"Hmm…Okay." Lucy thought out-loud
"How's that sound?" Ron asked
"Sounds good to me. Enjoy!" She said as she brought down her fingers on the strings of an electric guitar which appeared out of nowhere. As a strong sound filled the room, Ron closed his eyes and when he reopened them, he found himself in a dark, loud area. Hoards of screams could be heard close by. He ran his hands across his head, realising his hair was long and wild. He patted himself down and felt tattered, leather clothes adorn his body.
"Hi, Mr. Stoppable. I'm John; you're on in a minute, okay?" The man said, seeming to be in a rush
"W-w-wait! Hey John, wait up!" Ron said as he caught up with John, "Where am I? What am I doing here?" He asked
"You're kidding right?" John said, raising an eyebrow "Just get out there!" He said before he pushed Ron backwards into some curtains. Ron stumbled to regain his step and when he turned around he saw the source of the screams. He looked over a field of people, raising their arms in the air as if trying to touch some invisible aura. The majority of the crowd were dressed in black, red, purple or brown clothes; tattered jeans, tanktops and jackets seemed to be their style. Ron saw John walk up to a microphone and said
"All-right! This is for all you fan-girls out there. Give it up for the unstoppable Ron Stoppable!" As he mentioned Ron's name, the crowd erupted into even louder screams of "Ron! Ron! Ron! Ron!" Ron looked down to see a crimson axe-like guitar slung around his shoulder. His body seemed possessed as his hands started playing a few notes over and over at different pitches. After a moment, the drums kicked in behind him, Ron looked back and saw Wade playing calmly at the drums, making Ron's jaw slack.
"Okay, this song is called "Hysteria"!" John yelled into the Mic once more. As Ron played the guitar another one came in. Ron looked to his side and saw Lucy playing violently at the other guitar. Lucy looked up to Ron, gave him a wink and held up the "Rock on!" symbol with one of her hands before carrying on to play the guitar. Ron's body jerked a little as his lips were brought to a microphone as he sang quietly but creepily into it.
"It's buggin' me…Grating me…And twisting me a-round!" He sang in a voice totally different to his own.
"Yeah I'm endlessly…Caving in…and turning inside out" Ron's eyes grew wide to see that the crowed loved the music and quickly grew calm to the thought of him being this Rock star. Ron looked down at the first few rows of people, most of them being rabid fan-girls which cried at his sight. One of the girls stood out at him, a stunning blonde with a broad smile on her face as she moshed to the music. Ron grabbed his attention from her and noticed Kim a few feet away. Soon, his voice began to sing louder, as if slightly angry;
"Cause I want it now! I want it now! Give me your heart and your soul…" He sang, pointing at the crowd, but giving Kim a wink
"Cause I'm breaking out…I'm breaking out! Last chance to lose control…!"
Wade's strong drum-playing began to pick up and Lucy strode over to the centre of the stage. Ron moved over to Lucy, his fingers already aching from the playing, but yet he couldn't stop. Ron leant his back on Lucy's and they both played violently.
"Its holding me…Morphing me and forcing me to strive. To be endlessly cold within…and dreaming I'm a-live! Cause I want it now…I want it now…give me your heart and your soul. I'm not breaking down…I'm breaking out. Last chance to lose control!" They both sang before they walked over to the edge of a stage with a strong type of march and performed a duet-like performance. Ron looked directly at Kim, seeming to sing only for her
"And I want you now…I want you now. I'll feel my heart implode! I'm breaking out…escaping now…feeling my faith erode!" Soon, Lucy began playing violently until the end of the song, Ron seeming to step back to allow her to have a little light.
After the song, Ron rushed backstage and looked for some-
"Ice! Ice! I need ice! Will someone just get me some god damn ice!" He yelled before turned around to see Lucy with an ice-pack. Ron quickly grabbed it and sandwiched it in between his hands.
"You know, if you're going to get anything done, you better do it soon. Unless you want to search this country for her, I suggest you find her now while she's close-by." Lucy stated before she vanished.
"Fine…-John! John! Get here." He shouted
"Yes, Mr. Stoppable?" John said, as he rushed over
"Get me the red-head, from the front row" Ron order
"Anyone imparticular?" The man asked. Ron looked at him blankly
"I…I can have any girl I want?-I mean- Yes! Of course I can! I want Ms. Possible, she shouldn't be hard to find."
"Yes sir." He said as he ran out of sight.
Ron was in his lavish dressing room, just coming out of a hot shower with one towel around his waist and another one he used to pad himself down. A few knocks came at the door
"Yes?" Ron asked
"It's me, Mr. Stoppable. I have Ms. Possible for you."
"Come in." Ron said calmly as he dried his mullet. John opened the door, Kim seen whispering to someone behind him.
"Thanks, John. Leave us." Ron said. After a moment, Kim walked into the room, seeming extremely anxious. She looked around until something caught her eyes.
"You have a naked mole rat too? My friend has one-"
"His name's Rufus"
"His name's Rufus" They both said in unison.
They both looked at each other, before Ron gave a small laugh and a smile crossing Kim's lips. Ron led Kim over toward the back where a leather couch and chair were placed in front of a large TV
"Please, sit down." He said, motioning to the leather set. Kim sat down on one side of the couch while Ron picked up the remote and turned on the TV, passing it to Kim
"Feel free to choose which channel you want, and try and make yourself comfortable; you look tense." He said as he pulled out two bags "Bueno Nacho?" He asked
"Huh?" Kim said, a little dumbfounded
"Bueno Nacho?" He said, lifting up the bags a little. Ron walked over to Kim and just as he was about to hand over one of the bags the door burst over and John came flying through in front of a wave of fangirls
"No wait! Stop! I'm telling you to STOP!-Uuuaaggh!" He shouted as he was practically trampled. Soon enough, Ron was surrounded by the girls who were tearing at his clothes shouting things like;
"I got his jacket!"
"I got his shoes!"
"I got his BOXER SHORTS!"
Ron managed to slip through the girl's legs and ran off, not forgetting to pick up a pair of jeans before running out. He ran down the corridors, noticing the fangirls were hot on his trail. He made a few quick turns and he managed to get back to his dressing room without their notice. He ran over to the TV area and looked around.
"Kim? KP Are you here?" He asked around, sighing as he realised she had probably left earlier
"R-Ron? Are you there?" A voice asked, it wasn't John's; he had been lifted to the infirmary prior to his entry. Ron looked around and saw Kim creep out of a closet; this was the first time Ron had seen Kim look so scared from a group of girls.
"KP, Are you okay?" He asked
"Yeah, I'm okay…" She said, walking over to Ron, rubbing her arm.
"That's good. Look, KP, the reason I called you here was because I wanted to s-say something" He stuttered, "KP, Even though you think we've only just met, I've really known you for a long while now, all my life as a matter of fact." He said, but he felt that his words didn't really sink in to her so he moved in for a kiss. His lips just briefly touched hers before she quickly pulled back
"I-I really have to go now. I have to go and meet my boyfriend." She said, looking around for a shoe that had been knocked off her feet.
"Boyfriend?" Ron asked, "B-but what about me? Obviously he can't compare! What about the money, the popularity?"
"Just because you have money and people worshipping you, Ron, doesn't mean that I'd want to be with you. If you know me like you say you do, you should have known I'm not shallow." She retorted.
"Okay…" He sighed, realising his chance in this "life" were zero to none "I'll see you later?"
"Sure…" She said, obviously not meaning it. Ron's anger seemed to overcome him as he picked up a lamp and threw it at the TV, making the screen shatter into a million-and-one pieces. Ron looked around his dresser table
"Rufus! Help me find the pager-thing" He said, but Rufus looked up at him with a blanked expression. Letting out a cry of frustration Ron carried on looking for it, until he found it in his socks strangely enough.
"Six, Six, Six."
-Flash-
Ron looked around seeing himself in the middle of a field
"Four!" A voice shouted as a golf ball flew at his head. Ron quickly ducked and looked around for the golfer
"Duff Killigan!" He asked
"No, it's your guardian angel" A voice laughed. Ron looked behind him to see Lucy in golfer's clothes and a Driver in her grasp
"Four!" She shouted once more as she hit the ball and hit someone smack on the head. Ron winced at the unfelt pain until he realised why he was there.
"You made me a Rock star!" He shouted
"I know, wasn't it fun?- Four!"
"Yeah…But that's not the point! Even though I was a rock star, Kim still didn't like me. And she had a boyfriend!" He exclaimed
"Hey, wait here a minute. You said absolutely nothing about her liking you or her own relationships. You just said rich and popular and that's what I gave you. Anyway, why be so hung up on Kim? You could have had any girl in that field, you know. Or even one on stage." She laughed, giving him a wink. Ron looked at her, not sure whether he was flattered that a hot girl was hitting on him or scared that that particular girl was the devil. Before shaking off the comment he braced up again.
"Fine! I'll just make another wish then."
"Go ahead- Four!"
Writer's Note: Thanks for the good comments! I hope this wish was up to your standards. I had a slightly rough time thinking of a way to mess it up for him, but ah well, I'm sure it works out. Like I said at the beginning, get the song "Hysteria"! It's awesome. So it "Time is Running Out"
Optimisticgirl94 - Thanks for the comment of it being a good story, the "No Bedazzled" part was about the first Chapter imparticular.
Finalfantasy'schild – Just to clear up, the name "Lucy" came from the name "Lucifer" which is the Devil's name. I had no intention of explaining that in the story, so I'll tell you here.
After reading this chapter could you PLEASE review? Or if you wouldn't mind, could you refer it to a friend :-) Please and Thankyou!
