Worlds Apart Chapter 7: Karoke!, a fruits basket fanfic

Worlds Apart: Chapter 7

TQL: Yay! Chappie 7! I don't own Fruits Basket!

We all know the girls that I am talking about.
Well they are time bombs and they are ticking
And the only questions when...they'll blow up!
And they'll blow up, we know that without a doubt.
Cause they're those girls, yeah, you know those girls
That let their emotions get the best of them.
GO!!!

"Wow… Kyon-Kyon can sing pretty well…" said Ellen.

And I've contrived some sort of a plan
To help my fellow man...

Let's get... emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking,
Just what they're thinking...

She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her mood are swinging on the swing set almost everyday
She said to me that she's so happy it's depressing
And all I said was "Someone get that girl a mood ring!"

"I give him credit on the song," said Shana, "It's funny!" Yuki and Kakeru nodded.

If it's drama you want, then look no further
They're like the Real World meets Boy Meets World
meets Days of Our Lives.

And it just kills me how they get away with murder
They'll anger you then bat their eyes
Those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize
GO!!!

"Interesting…" noted Kori, smiling.

And I've contrived some sort of a plan
To help my fellow man...

Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking,
Just what they're thinking...

She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her moods are swinging on the swing set almost everyday
She said to me that she's so stressed out that it's soothing
And all I said was "Someone get that girl a mood ring!"

Cause when it's black means "watch your back" because you're probably
The last person in the world right now she wants to see
And when it's blue it means you should call her up immediately
and ask her out because she'll most likely agree
And when it's green it simply means that she is really stressed
And when it's clear it means she's completely emotionless
And that's alright I must confess

Kakeru started snickering.

We all know the girls that I am talking about
She likes you Wednesday, but now it's Friday
And she has to wash her hair
And it just figures that we'll never figure them out

Well, first she's Jekyll and then she's Hyde...
at least she makes a lovely pair.

By this time, everyone was laughing

Mood Ring, oh Mood Ring,
oh tell me will you bring the key
To unlock this mystery?
Of girls and their emotions
Play it back in slow motion
So I may understand
The complex infrastructure known as the female mind

(Mood Ring By Relient K)

The 5 of them let out whistles and burst into a huge applause. Kyo opened one eye, saw them, and cringed. He quickly got off the stage, his face red and veins popping out everywhere. He sat in the booth ignoring the laughter of the others.

"Shut up! Who's the next victim?" He replied.

"…"

"I say Kakeru." Said Shana.

"Agreed." They said.

"Wha? You all are so cruel…kyu…" He said, with fake tears. They all just pointed to the stage. "Fine…" He went and told the manager his song and walked out onto the middle of the stage. The music started. Kakeru fixed his eyes upon Kori. (Hey Juliet. Don't know who it's by.)

Hey Juliet...
Hey Juliet
Hey I've been watching you.
Every little thing you do.
Every time I see you pass in my homeroom class,
Makes my heart beat fast.
I've tried to page you twice
But I see you roll your eyes
Wish I could make you real
But your lips are sealed. That ain't no big deal.

"This song fits him perfectly." Noted Yuki. Kori nodded.

Cuz I know you really want me. I hear your friends talk about me.
So why you trying to do without me. When you got me
Where you want me

Hey Juliet
I think you're fine.
You really blow my mind
Maybe some day you and me can run away.
I just want you to know.
I wanna be your Romeo.
Hey Juliet Hey Juliet! Hey Juliet...

A blush grew on Kori's cheeks, as Kakeru's eyes never left hers. The rest of the group wore small smirks.

Girl you got me on my knees.
Beggin' please, baby please.
Got my best DJ on the radio waves sayin',
"Hey Juliet, what are you doin' to me?"

"Strange song…"said Kyo

Too far to turn around
So I'm gonna stand my ground
Gimme just a little bit of hope
A smile or a glance
Give me one more chance

Cause I know you really want me.
I hear your friends talk about me.
So why you tryin' to do without me.
When you got me where you want me

Hey Juliet.
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
Maybe(maybe) someday(someday) you and me can run away
I just want you to know.
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
Hey Juliet

I know you really want me.
I hear your friends talk about me.
So why you tryin' to do without me.
When you got me. Where you want me.

Shana started grinning. She nudged Kori and giggled.

If you want us to stay forever
For us to hang together
So-hear-me-when I-say
Hey(Hey hey hey Hey) Juliet

Hey Juliet Hey Juliet...
I think your fine (your fine)
You really blow my mind (blow my mind)
Maybe (maybe) someday (someday)
You and me can run away
I just want you to know
I wanna be your Romeo

Hey Juliet(hey hey Juliet) Hey Juliet.
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
Maybe(maybe) someday(someday) you and me can run away
I just want you to know.
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
Hey Juliet

Hey Juliet(Hey Hey Hey Hey Juliet)

"Woo!" cheered Shana and Ellen.

"Nice job, Kakeru." Said Kyo. Kakeru grinned.

"I choose the next sucker." He smirked as he eyed the remaining. "You're up Shana."

"Aww man…." She groaned, "But I don't wanna…."

"No buts, Missy. Now march yourself to the stage right now like a good little girl." Shana stuck her tongue out at him as she walked to the stage. Yuki chuckled. They watched as she chose the song and walked onto the middle of the stage and the music started to play.

Ellen and Kori recognized the song.

"Oh no…" said Kori.

"Not this song…" groaned Ellen. Yuki turned to them.

"What?" He asked.

"Let's just say you better listen to the lyrics." Said Ellen and Shana began to sing. (A/N: The song is called Cinderella by the Cheetah Girls.)

When I was just a little girl,
My mama used to tuck me into bed,
And she read me a story.

It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory.

I'd lie in bed
And think about
The person that I wanted to be,

Then one day I realized
The fairy tale life wasn't for me.

Yuki could tell that Shana was really passionate about the song by the way she sang.

I don't wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend on no one else
No, no, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself.

Someday I'm gonna find Someone
Who wants my soul, heart and mind
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am
Don't need nobody taking care of me
(I will be there) I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me
When I give myself then it has got to be an equal thing

Ellen and Kori were slamming their heads on the table, and rolling their eyes.

"The baka!" exclaimed Ellen. Kori nodded in agreement.

I can slay (I can slay) my own dragons. (My own dragons)
I can dream my own dreams. (My own dreams)
My knight in shining armor (shining armor) is me.
So I'm gonna set me free.

Kyo cocked an eyebrow and looked at Yuki, who was surprised at this part of the song.

I don't wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free.
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side

I don't wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody (oh -Oh) to come and set me free.
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend
No, no one else.
I'd rather rescue myself.

"It's her favorite song. She can never be even a LITTLE subtle, can she?" asked Kori. Ellen shook her head.

"Nope. Not ever…" said Ellen.

"I guess your 'princely' image won't work, eh Yun-Yun?" joked Kakeru.

Shana quickly came down from the stage, embarrassed. She didn't like being in front of a lot of people or being the center of attention.

"Well, that was interesting." Yuki smiled at her as she sat down next to him. Her cheeks flamed.

"Ellen." She said, ignoring Yuki's comment and the smirks of the rest of them, she pointed to the stage. "Go." Ellen sighed in annoyance.

"Ugh…" She walked up to the stage and chose her song. She walked onto the middle of the stage as the music started to play. Kori and Shana started laughing.

"What?" asked Yuki, Kakeru and Kyo.

"Kyo, you better listen to this song, and listen good!" said Kori, grinning. (A/N: It's called I Hate Everything About You by Three Days Grace)

TQL: Well! Interesting, right? Tell me what YOU think in a review!
