Sorry it took a while, but here's Chapter 4. This is going to be a romantic scene. So enjoy the show!
Everyone cheered after the song was over. Nikita, NightStar, and Poppy bowed down to the crowd and left the stage. They were proud of their performance and were pleased to see that everyone liked it. Nikita was especially pleased that Aqualad liked her song. She began to blush as he approached her. She was really glad that he showed up for karaoke night. Maybe being on this ark will give Nikita the courage to tell Aqualad how she felt about him. She just had to wait for the right moment to do so.
"Wow, Nikki. You were amazing." He tells her. "Well, thanks. I've had a lot of practice." Nikita said, blushing. "You did great too, NightStar." Prince D said. "Thanks, Darnell." NightStar said.
She and Prince D soon began blushing in each other's presence. Poppy and Branch do the same. They didn't know what to say to each other after all.
"Who's up next?" Ella asked. "I think Shawn should go next." Jasmine said. "What?! No way! I... I don't know how to sing that well." Shawn said, nervously.
Then suddenly, Sugar makes her way towards the group and starts acting all sassy. The group stares at her with bitter contempt, for they all hated Sugar a lot. Shawn and Jasmine hated her for getting the latter voted off of Pahkitew Island. Nikita hated her for the way she treated Ella during the entire season. She hated Sugar more than some of the other contestants except Amy. She had also hoped that Sugar would not be on the S.S. Onward, but she had somehow found out about it.
"Ha! I can sing better than all y'all combined." Sugar said, confidently. "Oh, yeah? Then how come you were voted off the island?" Shawn asked.
Sugar felt a little upset over that snarky comment, but she let it slide for now.
"Well that Chris McLean fella didn't know what good singing was." She said, filled with pride. "Yeah, right. If you ask me, you should've been voted off a long time ago." Nikita said. "Oh, is that right?" Sugar asked. "Well y'all better keep your guard up from now on."
Nikita felt a huge pout of rage boiling inside of her. She had wanted to grab Sugar by the neck and toss her over the side of the ship. But she had tried her best to restrain herself from attacking Sugar, even though she wanted to pound that ugly, fat bitch to the ground. Suddenly, Leshawna shows up to see what all the fuss was about. Heather had already left the room after having another spat with Leshawna. She saw Nikita and the others arguing with Sugar.
"Hey! What's going on?" Leshawna asked. "Sugar's being a pain in the butt, that's all." Nikita said. "Now, now. There's no need for such harsh words." Ella said, trying to ease the situation. "Looks like little miss princess here's doing her "nice, sweet girl" act again to get me to lower my guard." Sugar said. "Leave Ella out of this, Sugar!" Nikita said. "Yeah! All you ever did was bad mouth her when we were on the show." Shawn said.
Everyone else stood by Ella's side and defended her from Sugar's rants. Nikita felt strong for standing up to Sugar like this. She felt like she should've stood up to Sugar a long time ago back on Pahkitew Island. She had wanted to get revenge on her for treating Ella horribly and getting her voted off. She also felt like she should've stood up to Chris as well for his behavior too.
"Humph! I guess I'll be taking my business elsewhere." Sugar said as she left the room. "Well now that she's gone, Shawn, will you do the honor of singing for us?" Poppy asked. "Well... Okay, I guess I can give it a try." Shawn said.
He got up on stage and grabbed the microphone to begin singing. He began to stare at Jasmine as he started his song.
Shawn: A hundred and five is the number that comes to my head
When I think of all the years I wanna be with you
Wake up every morning with you in my bed
That's precisely what I plan to do
And you know one of these days, when I get my money right
Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life
Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush
But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough
Shawn takes a moment to breath before continuing to sing as he stares into Jasmine's eyes. Sparks began to fly between the two as the song continued.
Shawn: I'll say, will you marry me?
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say, will you marry me?
Singing, uh-oh-oh, uh-oh-oh
Uh-oh-oh, oh-yeah
Everyone sat and stared as Shawn continued singing the song. They had never heard him sing with such a wonderful voice before. They had never imagine that a crazy zombie conspiracy theorist would have a great talent for singing.
Shawn: How many girls in the world can make me feel this way?
Baby, I don't ever plan to find out
The more I look, the more I find the reasons why
You're the love of my life
You know one of these days, when I get my money right
Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life
Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush
But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough
Shawn reminded Poppy of Branch: he's a wilderness survivalist with a wonderful singing talent. She didn't think he was a much of a singing, but it turns out he was a great singer after all.
Shawn: I'll say, will you marry me?
I swear that I will mean it
I'll say, will you marry me?
Singing, uh-oh-oh, uh-oh-oh
Uh-oh-oh, uh-oh-oh, singing
Everyone cheered as Shawn finished his song. He bowed to the audience as Jasmine ran onto the stage and grabbed him. The two kissed as everyone awed at them.
"That was incredible, Shawn!" NightStar shouted. "Yeah! That was awesome!" Nikita said, cheering loudly. "Oh, it was nothing, really." Shawn said. "You're an excellent singer, Shawn." Jasmine said as the two continued kissing. "Sammy, do you wanna sing next?" Poppy asked. "Hmm? Oh! No thanks. I don't feel like singing in front of people today." Sammy said. "Well okay, if you say so." Nikita said.
The group decided that they've had enough of karaoke for today and left the room. They soon went their separate ways and went straight back to their rooms. Nikita and NightStar lead the trolls back to their rooms as the storm continued brewing outside.
"What a day! I'm ready to kick back and relax." Branch said. "Yeah, me too." NightStar said.
Nikita looked outside to see the storm getting stronger. She hoped that the S.S. Onward would hold together for the next few days, but she grew worried for her friends.
Song: Marry Me by Jason Derulo.
