celestialstarynight: thanks for thinking it was a real song, lol. I had a mash up of it I'm hoping for it to be the tune of "KrisDayanti - I'm sorry goodbye" I haven't looked up the translations yet and I'm hoping to make a lyrics video of it soon. I guess I'll sample my voice and put the link here and the reviewers can think of it before I sing it myself.
Hipturtle15: thx and I checked your profile so I can find a way to say "thank you" for reviewing and I guess you want tips for being an author. I can either PM you them or tell you them here. Your choice. :)
Layra: thanks. Wish I updated sooner. :/
Penguin-pirate-lover: thanks =)
Reznov: thanks and sorry for making you cry. I guess when I wrote "Misery Road," I thought of when I was depressed and how lonely I felt and that kind of stuff. I guess when you cried, I cried months ago which shows exactly how I felt during my life. It's weird but the key to making a sad song is to BE the sad song.
Hammerbro: thanks and my thoughts too of the song.
Lovekit and Silverkit: is that poem for me or for the chapter. Either way the poem is sweet. :)
POMFan101: thanks and will do with the song!
AnthonyAngrywolf: lol, nope. I just thought it would be funny if I keep knocking him out instead of killing him.
I'm so sorry for the long update. I tried to finish one of my other stories first then do a chapter of this story but I got bored of it. I miss writing here and I'm back! I'm glad that everyone liked my last song "Misery Road." When this story's over, I'll upload the full lyrics since everyone seems to like it. And I'm in need of a beta reader. I need them to check my spelling and send me back the story: in HTML code. My computer's not working and the last chapter has been written by phone since my computer doesn't work with Fanfiction. Please PM me and I'll give you the next chapter.
This chapter is dedicated to Daisy, Sean Klitzner's dog. He's a youtuber and a funny one. Check out SeanKlitzner and SeanKlitzner2. (vlogging) Check out his second channel and he'll make you feel like family. And he'll explain about Daisy. She got hit by a car. She's fine but scared about what had happened and Sean's simply worried about her! ( you can tell by his voice ) Poor Daisy and I hope she feels better.
It had been days since they slept. Days since they ate. Days since they stopped walking. Days since they smiled. Days when they spoke alot.
They walked and walked like zombies that came back from the dead: bloodshot eyes and walking (or limping) in a zombie-like way. They wouldn't stop: just kept on walking. They only had one goal: brains. (Zoo) Nobody talked but mumbled and they understood eachother. Nobody cared about themselves: just Private and the zoo.
"Mommy look at the animals!" A little girl exclaimed to her mother. The mother turned around and saw the animals walk by slowly and tiredly. She was about to scold at her daughter for interrupting her phone call but didn't. It was a fight with her friend, anyway. She saw the animals too and couldn't help but feel badly for them.
"Daisy, help me pick them up and we'll drive them to the zoo." Her mother said to her 5-year old daughter.
"Yes, mommy," Daisy walked to them and stopped their tracks. She gently picked them all up. They were about to refuse but when they heard her talk, they stopped, "Mommy's gonna drive you all to the zoo so you can feel better!"
They didn't struggle nor try to break free. They saw that girl wanted to help them and be nice to them. They simply cuddled closer to her and listiened to her talking about random stuff. She talked about how she loved the zoo and playing with dolls. She felt like they could understand what they're saying because she can feel their nods and shakes when she asked a question.
The mother led her to the car and got a large box. She went to the back of the car and pulled out blankets used for when Daisy ever got cold. She also pulled out pillows and put them in the box. Daisy put them down gently and the mother put them in the back of the car. It was big enough to fit twenty gallons of water so she knew it was enough space.
As Daisy's mother drove to the zoo, the small animals fell asleep after a long time, knowing their goal is doing it for them. When they woke up, they were still in the car and we're glad they were picked up by nice people otherwise they would have to walk. They knew Private was still breathing so that helped them relax. After minutes of talking, they fell asleep again. This time, taking their time and enjoying each moment of peacefullness.
When they woke up they weren't in the car or in the middle of the road: they were in the zoo's hospital. Skipper looked around the room and saw Marlene, Kowalski, Ringtail, Rico, Sad Eyes, and Maurice asleep. But he saw no Private. He tried to stand up but felt too weak to get up. He knew he must in some intensive care or something so that helped him relax alittle.
A few days later, the animals, except Private were permitted to come back to their habitats. Skipper and Rico decided to sleep since they could finally sleep soundly without being interrupted by noises. Kowalski, on the other hand, couldn't sleep. He kept thinking about Private and how he yelled at him. He was finally tired of not being able to sleep so he got outside and let the night breeze hit his face. He looked at the sky and saw the New York City clouds. He heard police sirens, wind, cars passing by and radios. Yep, New York alright. The city that never sleeps. (Or is that L.A?) But it seemed like the city was starting to sleep. He saw the building's lights slowly turn off and traffic grew lighter. He sat down and absorbed the sounds. He listiened to the radios of cars and suddenly a song popped out that made him suprised:
I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lying here tonight"
He realized that he knew the song before. And suddenly he found himself singing the rest of the lyrics even though the car that had the song drove away:
"And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain
How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again
So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't
How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me"
He realized how much the song related to him and on how he felt. He wanted for all of the pain to end and doesn't why it happened to him.
"I'm sorry, Private! I'm sorry for not being the brother I'm supposed to be!" He screamed. He sobbed wildly not caring who was hearing or who was caring. All he wanted was for Private to be by his side and telling him everything's okay. He knew all he could he do was scream and yell why it's happening to him.
The song is Untitled by Simple Plan. Not a song by me this time. Though I wish it was. I named Daisy after Sean's dog, of course.
