Chapter 5
It was a really rough first round...so far...Benson walked off in an angry rush, and Muscle Man somehow suffered series of ass-cramps. Every competitor that stepped onto the stage, had their fate sealed one way after another. Worse of all, it was in the fate of Roderick's hands. And one by one...every competitor fell...
One that definitely took notice was High-Five Ghost who was singing his perfect rendition of Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight".
High-Five Ghost:
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Ive been waiting for this moment, all my life, oh lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, o-ah, ah, ah-choo!
(High-Five Ghost sneezes.)
"Stop! Judges?" Roderick said in an arrogant tone.
"What? That wasn't fair! I just sneezed! Ask the dust particles!" High-Five Ghost complained.
"8, 0, 0, and I hold up a exclamation mark." Roderick said as he held up a sign that has a "!" symbol on it.
"What kinda score is that?" High-Five Ghost replied as he raised an eyebrow.
"BOO! Hahahahaha!" Roderick laughed annoyingly as High-Five Ghost found it offensive in an unknown fashion.
High-Five Ghost left in an angry fashion, but not without leaving a few choice of words for the punk-rocking sparrow.
"I took a big crap in your car! You may think its eggs, but it's a whole different story!" he said as he angrily went to his seat.
Mordecai scowled at Roderick for doing that to High-Five Ghost (Girls would think he's adorable!). He should've gotten a chance.
"I wonder what more crap he's gonna pull out?" Mordecai said in a tense, but fearless tone.
And then, it was Skips turn with a rendition of "U Cant Touch This" by MC Hammer. He was pulling out all the stops to impress Roderick Sparrow.
Skips:
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
"Damn...he's really killing it out there!" Mordecai replied, being impressed by Skips dance moves. Who knew someone so big and large could have moves like that. Benson wasn't that impressed, knowing that he got a huge crowd reaction better than him.
Roderick or "The Rod" was less than surprised. That sly smirk that he has in his face must mean that he's up to something.
My-my-my-my (U can't touch this) music hits me so hard
Makes me say,"oh my lord thank you for blessing me
With a mind to rhyme and two hyped feet"
It feels good
When you know you're sown
A superdope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat-AAAAAAAH!
Skips' singing was cut off my that hole in the ground that Benson made earlier. It brought a sick smile to Roderick's face. But he decided to act concerned, knowing in Mordecai's mind that he wasn't.
"Can someone get Skips to the hospital as well? Get back-up as needed! And someone fix the damn hole that idiot machine with gumballs made in the first place!" Roderick spoke as the medical team tended to Skips, who just happened to have suffered a splinter on his foot. And then when he turned away, he shot back one tine insult at him in hidden fashion, in which he muttered. "What a dumbass..."
"Oh man, I hope that isn't me..." Mordecai thought to himself. He was still confident though. Even though not confident enough as where Margaret is concerned.
Oh, man. The way Mordecai looked at his angel was heartwarming. The way that she served him coffee. The way she always had that nice, care-free smile made to him. They way that her beauty shone as much as just about every female in this planet? He then wondered what could be happening to him if he didn't win Margaret's heart.
He wondered...
His dream sequence began when Mordecai was entering the coffee shop as usual with Rigby. He just happened to see Margaret alongside her good friend, Eileen.
"Hi, Margaret! What's up, Eileen?" Mordecai greeted them as he went inside and took a seat next to Rigby.
"Not much...Oh, I forgot...I won't be serving any coffee anymore..." Margaret said as she had a disappointed look in her face. So did Eileen.
"What? What happened?" Rigby replied having a "WTF?" look on his face.
"Margaret just decided to become married instead!" Eileen exclaimed, turning her face to pure joy.
"What? But you can't be married that quick! What about true love, between us?" Mordecai said, in panicking fashion.
"Ohhh...I forgot about that...I just found out that for you and me...life is just too short. So...I'm breaking up with you..." Margaret said, looking down on Mordecai who had a sign of disappointment in his face.
"That's impossible! This can't happen! Who are you getting married to?" Mordecai spoke to her as Margaret's face had a very good reason.
"I'm getting married to Roderick Sparrow!" Margaret replied happily as the whole news just dropped him on his knees.
"Ahhhhhh, caaaaaaaahm on!" Mordecai reacted in panic fashion.
Their conversation was cut off when Roderick "Rod" Sparrow appeared in arrogant fashion wearing what seems to be an airbrushed black jacket which in the back has an airbrushed picture of Mordecai with a censored sign covered over it. He also seems to be sporting a red bowtie as well.
As soon as Mordecai looked back at his friends, they all soon dressed up in formal. Rigby, Muscle Man, Skips, High-Five Ghost and Benson also appeared out of nowhere wearing formal as well, except that Benson was dressed up as a minister.
"Guys? You too?" Mordecai said as they looked at his best friends like they turned on him whatsoever.
"We get to have free cake! You know who else gets to have free cake? My mom!" Muscle man exclaimed.
"Okay, dude...that was horrible..." Mordecai spoke out, referring to Muscle man's lame Mom joke.
"Oh...you look very cute Mordecai..." Eileen cooed as him for some unknown reason.
"Why?" Mordecai oddly said, but then realized the nightmare that was when he was dressed up as Margaret's Maid of Honor. "...Aaah! Roderick, you bastard, what did you do to me...?" he continued angrily at him.
"Aw, don't be so glum, love. You make a pretty maid, Mordecai..." Roderick said to him, teasing Mordecai harshfully. And so did the rest of Mordecai's friends.
Mordecai growled angrily at him as Benson withstood the podium. Margaret and Roderick soon faced each other embracefully.
"Do you, Margaret?" Benson said to her, joyfully.
"I do!" Margaret exclaimed to minister Benson.
"And you...?" Benson then said to Roderick.
"Me too, ya bloody little cretin!" Roderick exclaimed to Benson, who didn't understand the insult at all.
"That settles it! You and her are now man and wife and Mordecai's fired! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Benson manically laughed like a maniac as Roderick held Margaret and gave her a passionate kiss.
Mordecai's heart just sank lower in despair.
"NoooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOO!" Mordecai screamed in slow-motion dropping to his knees once again. His brain was hurting from all this turbulent mess. Luckily for him, someone's voice snapped him out of his dream.
"Mordecai! Mordecai!" Rigby said, finally breaking Mordecai out of his sudden nightmare.
"Aah! What?" he said, just coming back to reality.
"You're up next. Go get 'em!"
"But what about you?" Mordecai questioned Rigby as he was busy wiping off the sweat from his forehead.
"I killed it out there with "Sweet Home Alabama"! I had so much girls screaming at me, they threw panties at me with their numbers attached to them. They think I'm some kind of Southern Elvis or something! My score is 26 by the way. Not bad, huh?" Rigby spoke like he was proud of his performance.
"Oh..." Mordecai spoke like he was somewhat kind of stoned. "...Sorry I missed it..."
"Go get 'em..." Skips said to Mordecai, giving him support as he got off his seat and headed straight for the stage.
As Mordecai did, he gave himself second thoughts. He was actually gonna do this with Margaret watching him. And most importantly, his new-found rival Roderick was holding his fate in his hands.
"I'm not gonna let Roderick get me down any longer...I have to do this..." Mordecai thought to himself as with his mind, body, soul and the woman that he adored for so long...
...he was about to break out on his own...
How will Mordecai's performance go in the next chapter? Will it make or break? Still, it was confusing a bit, but I pulled it off. Read and review if you can, and I will be back for more!
