Wind Beneath my Wings Chapter 2: TryOuts, a Maximum Ride + Glee Crossover fanfic

RACHEL'S POV:

Well, try-out day. I can't wait to see what they sing.

First is that Iggy boy. He's got no sheet music, but when he tells the band his song, they nod. He takes center stage.

Oh her eyes her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying

She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Yeah I know I know
When I compliment her
She won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see

But every time she asks me "Do I look okay?",
And then I'll say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Yeah Her lips her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Oh you know you know you know
I never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same

So, don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I'll say

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Yea-eah.

Everyone claps, and he smiles. It's obvious he's in. His voice is pretty good.

Next is Ella. She has this big grin on her face, and she gets sheet music from her bag and hands it out.

If time came to an end today
And we left too many things to say
If we could turn it back
What would we want to change
And now's the time to take a chance
Come on, we gotta make a stand
What if we gotta lose
The choice is in our hands

And we can find a way
To do anything, if we try to

Live like there's no tomorrow
'Cause all we have is here, right now
Love it's all that we know
The only chance that we ever found
Believe in what we feel inside
Believe and it will never die
Don't never let this life pass us by
Live like there's no tomorrow

If there never was a night, a day
And memories could fade away
Then there'd be
Nothing left, but the dreams we made
Take a leap in faith and hope you fly
Feel what it's like to be alive
Give it all that we've got
And lay it all on the line

And we can find a way
To do anything, if we try to

Be here by my side
We'll do this together
Just you and me
Nothing is impossible
Nothing is impossible

Live like there's no tomorrow
'Cause all we have is here, right now
Love it's all the we know
The only chance that we ever found
Believe in what we feel inside
Believe and it will never die

She ends, and her applause is even louder. She smiles, hugs Iggy, and walks off.

Next is Max. She looks kind of nervous. She hands out the music, and starts her song.

I took the zing out of the King of Siam
I took the starch out of the sails
Of the Prince of Wales
It's no great art, gettin' the heart of a man
On a silver platter
A little brains-a little talent
With the emphasis on the latter!

I made mince-meat out of a sweet young farmer!
I knocked the fight out of a knight
When I pierced his armor
And I'll bet, I can upset every male
In a Yale regatta!
A little brains-a little talent
With the emphasis on the latta!

You gotta know just what to say and how to say it
You gotta know what game to play and how to play it
You gotta stack those decks with a couple-a extra aces
And this queen has her aces
In all the right places!

I've done much more than that old bore, Delilah!
I took the curl out of the hair of a millionaire
There's no trick gettin' some hick who is cool
Just a little warmer
A little brains-a little talent
With the emphasis on the former!

Split up a home, way up in Nome, Alaska!
And wrecked the life of every wife
Down in Madagascar
Ask me why weak men'll die for me
Strong men simply shatter
A little brains-a little talent
With the emphasis on the latter!

You gotta know just what to do and how to do it
You gotta know what tea to brew and how to brew it
You've seen the sign that says George Washington once slept here
Well tho' nobody spied him
Guess who was beside him?
Bring out that boy, he'll be a toy to Lola

Just one more case she can erase with that old boffola
What's my plan. same as with any man
I'll use the standard platter
Plus a little this-a-and a little that-a
With the emphasis on the latter!

That was risky, singing a song from a musical. But she pulled it off with effortless grace, and all the boys cheer.

Finally, Fang. I know this will shock all of us. He doesn't talk, so what will his voice be like?

He hands out the music, sits down at at the piano, and starts.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strength.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

He looks at Max the whole time, and she starts crying. When he's done, she runs up and kisses him. Everyone gasps, including me.

FANG'S POV:

Well, the song worked. She's going to hate me later, but it was worth it.

MAX'S POV:

Well, let Rachel see that!

I was kind of embarrassed, but I got over it.

That Finn guy looked disappointed at me liking Fang.

I've heard rumors that he and Rachel dated, but she found out he had slept with Santana, the school slut, and in anger towards him, made out with Puck. Puck and Finn have had this kind of problem before. Puck kind of got Finn's girlfriend, Quinn, pregnant last year. So, since Rachel was a bitch, Finn broke up with her. She still isn't over him.

I think that Finn misses her too. All I need is some match-making advice. Time to call Nudge for a visit.

Okay, if any of you can tell me the names of these songs, I will reward you with putting you in my story.

HINT: One was sung at the wedding, one is by a Disney star, one is from a musical, and the last is by someone with the initials B.M.

Good luck, and Faxinchel!
