I am good on my word readers! Here is the next chapter for your lovely eyes. This chapter is a song-fic and if you want to hurt my feelings, you don't have to read it. I'll just be in my corner being a sad little author... This song is called Polyamorours by Breaking Benjamin. I hold this band close to my heart along with Dnangel.
Special Event
The lights dimmed as the last of the students filled the auditorium. The windows were covered with dark cloth and many doors were locked from the inside so no one could get in. The whispers from behind the velvet blue curtains that draped the stage could not compete against the raor coming from the vast audience. Then the headlights flicked on and zoomed to a girl who had appeared from behind the curtain in a all blue attire so she could easily be hidden by the curtains. She opened her eyes to a full house of students and she could easily view a sign on the door saying in bold letters,
"-Student Sex Education Program In Process, Do Not Disturb-"
The sudden female scanned the audience for any trace of blue hair. If such boy was here, then this whole operation could fall through. When nary a bluenette was found, she smiled and started looking to the sides of the auditorium where her many stagehands stood. Each gave their thumbs up as an 'all's clear' when they had finished their tasks and with each thumbs up she recieved, her confidance rose. Lastly she looked up and saw the final two that were working the lights and sound smile at her. They each mouthed the words 'ready". Without further wait she stepped forward and placed a headset upon her head. It took just a clearing of her throat and two taps on her microphone to get the general population to quite down. With her head held high she smiled to the crowd,
"Greetings my fellow peers and welcome. It warms my heart to see that you have survived our new principal's rein of terror. As you are well aware, I am the stage director for the school. Now my crew and I have a special program to show you all today- oh, and pay no heed to the sign because this is not a sex education program."
Groans from the seats before her rose from the darkness. Many of the faceless crowd laughed because the loudest groan was most easily recognizable as Dark. The stage director could feel the anger vein protruding from her forehead at such an action. She cleared her throat and continued with the presentation of introducing the ones that would be performing for them shortly. Suddenly a loud sound of dropped symbols echoed through the auditorium in a chain reaction, everyone kind of gave a nervous laugh as a weak "I'm ok!" was heard.
"Well," with a glance at her watch the stage director picked up her pace and snapped her fingers. Her crew nodded, walking to their stages. Some were at the lights and others were now behind the curtain. They started to draw the curtian as the stage director walked to the side, "without any further adieu, I present to you a musical production by none other then the Crash Crew!"
The lights finally went off, except for the ones on stage. The stage was bathed in hues of blue and reds, mixing together in a purple mash of things. Smoke quickly began to crawl across the still barren stage. The stage director's snapped fingers revirbirated from the shadows and the curtains fell to reveal a drum set on a raised platform. Sitting behind them was Nikki with her head downcasted. Then another snap was heard and two more pillars of curtains fell to reveal an Izzy and Nia on guitars. Izzy was dressed in a black collar dress shirt with purple thin tie and Nia was dressed in a purple dress shirt with black tie. Nia's right leg was purple material and the left pant leg was black, but on Izzy's the left pant leg was purple and the right pant leg was black (semi-matching both same purples and blacks).
The sounds the amps turning on boomed from the back of the speakers which laid hidden in certain areas around the place as the Crash Crew heads rose to face the crowd. On their faces they wore matching purple eye shadow and purple lips with black lip liner. Nikki started tapping on her drums and the music's volume got louder, their heads bobbed to the beats and there eyes opened to show violet and black eye contacted orbs. Nia brought the microphone up and started to hum while Izzy strummed on her electric guitar. The song they had chosed was called "Polyamorous" by Breaking Benjamin. The girls wanted to sing this cover song for quite a while due to the band's recent success and with some string pulling from the drama department, they finally got their wish. It was a known fact that Mr. Hiwatari would never give the green light for such a thing, saying that education is important and such filth should be kept in their garage. This did make some sense, it really did, but lately Mr. Hiwatari was being such an asshole to the student body that it was high time for a little fun.
Izzy could remember the fiasco of when she fainted in class; that was a nightmare. It ended up with her mother being called in and having her miss a few days of school. The time she spent at home wasn't worth it because of the mountian of homework Mr. Hiwatari assigned her so she'd be "busy". At least the guys came to visit her on seperate days, Daisuke made her cookies and the girls came too. They stayed the night and had a stress-free day full of movies and cartoons and regaurding to their little wager that they had, Nikki and Nia thought it to be fair just to push Izzy's deadline to another date. When Izzy went back to school she was welcomed with opened arms, well, everyone except for Mr. Hiwatari.
Mr. Hiwatari was an evil man who believed that Izzy fainted for attention; this resulted in him giving her dentention. He had her scrub graffitti off the walls and clean dirty dishes after school, all of this to try and help break her spirit. Mr. Hiwatari wanted Izzy to snap so her company would be passed to him but with every chore she did, Izzy completed it. Now it was almost time for winter break and Izzy's shenanigan meter was dangerously in the green.
Everyone in the group knew that Izzy's bottled up emotions were about to burst and she when she strummed her guitar, her bottle finally broke,
"Let's go!" She rasped into microphone. Nikki started to bang away on the drums to keep the beat and the song took off.
"The day has come to an end, The sun is over my head" Nia held her mic in both hands, her voice lulled the audience to stand from their seats and into a rhythmic bounce while Izzy tossed her a guitar pick. Both looked to each other and smiled before Izzy whistled to a stage hand for a headset. A teenager ran out and placed it on while she and Nia strummed away. Only when the headset was secure did she step off of her platform. Nia picked up the strings and kept strumming while Izzy pushed the mic closer to her,
"My polyamorous friend, You got me in a mess of trouble again" she finished and winked to the audience. She stuck the tip of her tongue out of the corner of her mouth and continued to play along with Nia and Nikki. They both took a breath and paused, then they hit the same chords the band had in the song which made the beats tripled.
"So, just when you think that you're all right,
I'm crawlin' out from the inside- I never hurt anyone. I never listen at all." They all screamed the last line, their eyes traveled over the audience looking for no one in particular- everyone was standing and pumping there fist while their face shown excitement. The show was starting to look like a huge success, everyone was having fun and even the stage director was smiling. The only thing that could make it worse was a certian bluenette, and he was here. None of the girls saw him as Satoshi stood in a room above the audience, the same room where the sound crew were. They had lied to their director but the fear that Mr. Hiwatari had on them was bigger than their fear for the director. Either way, Satoshi was here and watching.
"Interesting song, isn't it?" He murmmered more to himself than to the sound crew. They just tensed at the slight laugh Satoshi gave as he continued to look to the center of the stage, watching the girls while unbeknownist to anyone that one eye was gold and the other was blue.
"They've come to get me again, the cloud is over my head" Nia sang out to the crowd, everyone could hear Nikki's voice as she whispered in unison.
"My polyamorous friend, you got me in a mess of trouble again." Izzy flipped her hair over her shoulder and looked over her shoulder to the girls and nodded. That was the signal they were all waiting for as they all took a breath and started to sing together,
"So just when you think that you're all right, I'm crawlin' out from the inside. I never hurt anyone, I never listen at all.
Just stay away from the white light, I'd say your worst side's your best side, I never hurt anyone. I never listen at ALLLLL."
"Well how do you know?" Izzy had jumped back onto her platform, her guitar swung to and fro in front of her as she repeated the question to the audiance. It wasn't until a flash of blue caught her eye that she took off her head set and yelled to the crowd and her eyes never left Satoshi's, "Well how do you know!"
Izzy then grabbed hold of her guitar and strummed hard. Neither Nikki nor Nia could of known that Satoshi was here, Izzy even had a thought that maybe no one but her knew of his prescence. Regardless of the situation, Izzy was damn sure that she was going to finish this performance. Again, here eyes never left Satoshi's as she gave him a smirk and joined everyone back on earth.
"So just when you think that you're all right, I'm crawlin' out from the inside. I never hurt anyone, I never listen at all. Just stay away from the white light, I'd say your worst side's your best side. I never hurt anyone I never listen at aaallll" The audience had started to sing along with the band and none of the girls mind. In fact, it was the encouragement they all needed to help bring it to a close.
"Let's go" Shouted the crowd just as Nia and Izzy struck the last few chords, only for dark smoke invaded the stage and to obscure everyones sight. When everything cleared, the stage was bare of the instraments, platforms and the girls. The lights gently brightened as the music went less auditable by the second. Soon the entire place was filled with a standing ovation while the curtian closed finally.
"Our performance is over." Came the Stage Director's voice, "please return to your class's and dont tell Mr. Hiwatari of this- speak only of sex-related stuff so he wont be suspitious. Terminating Session."
At last, her fingers snapped and the doors flung open on cue, signalling everyone to move out. When the sound crew glanced over their shoulders, Satoshi was no where to be found.
Well? How was this? I hope everyone (somewhat) enjoyed this chapter. Oh, I've deleted the 12days of Christmas story because I am going to re-write that as well, PLUS, I need to have it make sense with the one that I'm currently writing. It will be about one or two more chapters here before I start posting the Twelve Days of Chrismas seperately- OR I could add it on as a really long chapter here :O You're choice everyone. Remember everyone,
