Remember how I told you about all those songs?
They're so many I had to divide The Battle of the Bands into 3 parts. (Who knew Hips don't Lie is a ridiculously long song?!)
As I said before,
Songs in Fanfictions are overly used and lame.
And now, i'm doing it to...
What has the world come to.
But I will also be posting a subchapter after all three parts containing the events of the Battle if people don't want to read all of them.
Battle of the Bands: Part 1
Our gym is really big and can hold a lot of people, probably about 300 or so.
So when we came onto a crowd of about 500 we decided it would be better to not question the universe. We were standing behind stage tuning our instruments before we heard Kira' voice, amplified, echo in the gym.
"Welcome to the first ever, Battle of the Bands!" The audience went wild screaming names and getting hyped.
First we have Pale Lightning, Azula, Hahn, Mai and Ty Lee." They all tromped on stage Mai looking depressed.
"And singing a Solo will be Song Asai, let's give her a hand folks!" Her face was bright red but she was still pretty her white dress fluttering slightly.
Miya, Smellerbee and Longshot got on stage before Kira even said their names, "Umm ok and next we have Zuko, Jet and ShuFeng as The Insiders" I whispered a "good luck" before they went up on stage.
"And singing a duet we have Harmonic Duality, Yue and Suki." Suki was dressed in black while Yue was completely in white.
"And finally the band that will be performing first. Give it up for, Last Chance!"
"Are you guys ready?" I was hiding my nervousness behind a face of a brave leader.
The curtains opened revealing a large crowd.
Aang just raised his arm in the classic "Rock on" sign.
I knew were we going to be alright, I started out on my guitar and Aang joined me, Sokka coming in on drums and Toph playing piano
It's too late baby, there's no turning around
I've got my hands in my pocket and my head in a cloud
This is how I do
When I think about you
I never thought that you could break me apart
I keep a sinister smile and a hold of my heart
You want to get inside
Then you need to get in line
But not this time
Cause you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
-
Aang sang his solo, his voice heard even over the screaming fans.
-
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine.
-
I won't try to philosophize
I'll just take a deep breath and I'll look in your eyes
This is how I feel
And its so surreal
I got a closet filled up to the brim
With the ghosts of my past and the skeletons
And I don't know why
You'd even try
But I won't lie
You caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
-
He looked me right in the eye and winked.
-
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?
-
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
I'm feeling like a new born child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded
And you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
-
Silence, then…
-
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?
-
(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded
(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
Never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded
The song ended with all of us panting for breath while we basked in the crowd's enthusiasm. I had turned to congratulate Toph and Sokka when I found them hugging.
"SOKKA!" Ty Lee squealed from backstage.
Sokka lifted his head slightly and ,blushing, removed his arms from Toph.
"WOW! Good job! Let's give our next band a little time to set up. Let me introduce you to our judges. Ti, Haru and Meng" They gave a little wave to Kira and then to the crowd.
A felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned to see Aang sweating but looking proud, "I just wanted to say good job." He pulled me into a hug.
I was blushing when he turned to see the next band perform.
Zuko was playing guitar while Jet was adjusting jet-black bass. ShuFeng was testing the drums.
Zuko grabbed the microphone and began whispering.
Long ago
Just like the hearse you die to get in again
We are so far from you
-
An explosion of sound and earsplitting fan girls. Even I had to admit Zuko does have very hot Emo bangs.
-
Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
And what's the worst you take (the worst you take)
From every heart you break (every heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (the blade you stain)
Well I've been holding on tonight
-
It slows a bit, Jet and Zuko both singing.
-
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
-
Came a time
When every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And what's the worst you take (the worst you take)
From every heart you break (every heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (the blade you stain)
Well I've been holding on tonight
-
ShuFeng was bobbing her head along keeping perfect time.
-
What's the worst thing I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
-
Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide?
-
What's the worst thing I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
I swear the explosion of girls screaming broke my ear. They were all yelling at Zuko to marry them. He just looked smugly satisfied and bowed to them.
"Very nice choice you guys! Next up we have Song Asai she will be accompanied by Teo on the synthesizer."
She walked up on stage and began singing in the most beautiful way.
Skipping beats, blushing cheeks I am struggling
Daydreaming, bed scenes in the corner cafe
And then I'm left in bits recovering tectonic tremblings
You get me every time
-
Why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go
-
Follow you home, you've got your headphones on and you're dancing
Got lucky, beautiful shot you taking everything off watch the curtains wide open
Then you fall in the same routine flicking through the TV relaxed and reclining
And you think you're alone...
-
Why d'ya have to be so cute?
-
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go
-
One of these days, you'll miss your train and come stay with me
We'll have drinks and talk about things, any excuse to stay awake with you
You'll sleep here, I'll sleep there, but then the heating may be down again
At my convenience
We'd be good; we'd be great together.
-
Say goodnight and go,
Why's it always always
Goodnight and go
Darling not again
Goodnight and go
No one spoke during her performance as if any sound would ruin the moment and soon as she finished the masses began cheering her she blushed and walked over o hug Teo before descending to the backstage.
"Song, that was AMAZING!"
"Thanks, I practiced a lot."
She was still blushing slightly but not out of nerves.
"That was great! Let's give another round to Song!" The crowd happily obliged whistling and catcalling.
"Our next song is going to be done by The Unspeakable. With Miya singing lead."
She stepped out on stage abandoning her pirate wear for a horrid peach neon suit. Smerllerbee and Lonshot were dressed similarly but didn't look as pleased as she did.
Longshot arranged himself on the guitar while Smellerbee donned her gloves.
---------OK so some copyright things.
All songs belong to their respective owners. I had no part in the making of them, I just have used them.
Auuugggggg there's still two parts to this...I can almost feel my soul dying every time I copy/paste a song from Metro Lyrics.
