Chapter Two: Invisible Chimera and Swordsman
Note: I still don't own Slayers, I'm trying to work on it, but Mesuinu hasn't manifested in the real world outside of hijacking my body. It wouldn't be so bad if she brought her powers. For those of you who don't know who I'm talking about, read my "Xellos has a daughter" fanfic. Oh, and I don't own Clay Aiken and the song 'Invisible'...his mother shares custody of him with whatever music company is producing his music. Above mentioned company has the rights to above mentioned song. Oh, and does anyone else think that Clay Aiken would make a great live-action Zelgadis? I think he'd make an adorable Zelgadis...and adorable is the only thing us fangirls care about, right? Its like wanting Keanu Reeves to play a live-action Goku...it's not because he looks like a goofy I-can-destroy-the-world-with-my-pinky type person, but because he's adorable...oh and that he could pull the character off. If not for that last requirement my b/f would be eligable to play every role imaginable. Okay, enough chit-chat, on with the story!
Disclaimer: There is no Slayers live-action movie in the making that I'm aware of, but if there isn't, I'll just have to make it myself one day.
The patrons slowly pour into the Mysterious Melody, taking seats at the bar and around the stage. Lina and Amelia sit near the front awaiting the boys' performance while Filia and Xellos are forced to waitress. "Hey Lina, why are Miss Filia and Xellos working as waitresses (yes, Xellos is in a dress)?", Amelia inquires. "I think Phurye said something about 'punishment for messing up her kitchen.'", Lina replies. "Oh Miss Lina, can I get you anything to drink?", Xellos inquires, looking all too lovely and comfortable in the gothy waitress uniform. "Oh, no thanks Xellos, I kind of want to live long enough to see Gourry and Zelgadis make fools of themselves on the stage.", Lina retorts. "You don't seriously think I'd do something like poison your drink?", Xellos replies. Lina gives him a stern and angry look. "Get back to work, Xellos! No slacking off or I'll get Filia on your case!", Phurye warns. Xellos sighs in exasperation and continues his forced servitude. Meanwhile, on the other end of the karaoke bar, Filia snickers at the Mazoku's plight.
The karaoke stage lights up as the elegantly dressed owner of the Mysterious Melody makes her way up on the stage. Taking one of the two karaoke microphones, she greets the guests of her lovely establishment. "Welcome all and everyone to the Mysterious Melody Karaoke and Bar. I am Phurye, owner and hostess for tonight's grand opening. I'd like to take a moment and thank all of you for coming. Tonight we have two very special guests who have volunteered to perform the first song of the night. Singing Clay Aiken's 'Invisible' tonight will be Gourry Gabriev and Zelgadis Greywards!", Phurye announces. Zel and Gourry slowly make their way onto the stage from the back curtain as Phurye mysteriously vanishes. As they make their way to their microphones, a large white screen scrolls down from behind them.
"Hey Lina, what's that large screen behind them for?", Amelia asks her companion. "Not sure. I guess she's going to have some video play behind them, like a music video or something. I have no idea what it'll show though.", Lina remarks.
Gourry is dressed in a black leather jacket partially zipped, revealing his sexy and smooth chest and a pair of low-cut bluejeans. Zelgadis is decked out in a partially zipped bluejean jacket with a black tank underneath, and TIGHT black leather pants.
The music begins to play and Gourry starts off the song.
"What're you doin tonight? I wish I could be a fly on your wall."
A video begins to play behind the duo on the screen. The first image is a close up of Gourry performing.
"Are you really alone?", the adorable blonde swordsman sings as the image fades from him and to the room where he and Lina stayed in the first season after they had beat Zelgadis's minions.
"Still in your dreams, why can't I bring you into my life?"
The image shifts into Lina sleeping in bed the morning she had received Filia's letter.
(So tell me)
"What would it take to make you see that I'm alive?"
The scene disperses into an image of when Lina and Gourry first met when Gourry had offered to escourt her to Atlas City. Zelgadis now joins Gourry in singing the chorus.
"If I was invisible, then I could just watch you in your room."
An image of Gourry standing guard outside of Lina's bedroom appears on the screen.
"If I was invincible, I'd make you mine tonight."
The scene transists to that of Gourry reaching out to grab Lina after falling off the giant rock created by Kanzel.
"If hearts were unbreakable, then I could just tell you where I stand."
The screen then cuts to Lina and Gourry embrassing each other after Lina had been taken away by the Lord of Nightmares. ( Oooooo but they don't remember that scene, did they?)
"WHAT THE HELL! That NEVER happened!", Lina protests.
"Gee Miss Lina, I wonder how Miss Phurye was able to obtain all this footage about you and Mister Gourry.", Amelia remarks. Meanwhile, Phurye is smirking behind her counter, her hands in prayer. "Oh Lord who shines like gold upon a sea of chaos, I thank you for bestowing upon me such sweet images to display in my karaoke bar. A-woman." "Well, it seems someone has connections.", Xellos comments looming about the mysterious owner. "Ah you know, she can be a bit benevolent.", the owner replies sweatdropping.
"I would be the smartest man if I was invisible."
The adorable image quickly reverts back to Gourry singing.
"Wait I already am."
"Saw your face in the crowd," Zelgadis sings.
The screen transits into Zelgadis, Lina, and Gourry standing in a crowd where ships are getting ready to set sail to the Outer Continent.
"I call out your name."
The screen shows Lina calling out to Amelia to catch her attention. (So Zel, you have to get your friends to do your dirty work for you, eh?)
"You don't hear a sound."
Amelia does a double-take on and off-screen.
"I keep tracing your steps."
Each move that you make
Wish I could be what goes through your mind
(Oh baby)
Wish you could touch me with the colors of your life
If I was invisible Then I could just watch you in your room If I was invincible I'd make you mine tonight If hearts were unbreakable Then I could just tell you where I stand I would be the smartest man If I was invisible
Wait I already am
(I'd make you mine tonight)
Invisible
(I'd make you mine tonight)
I reach out
But you don't even see me
(No you don't no you don't)
I scream out
Baby you don't hear me
I am nothing without you
Just a shadow passing through
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
(I would make you mine)
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(I'd make you mine tonight)
If I was invisible
(I'd make you mine tonight)
If I was invisible
(I'd make you mine tonight)
