What Brings Us Together
Chapter 3
Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN ANY SONGS USED IN THE FIC!!! I DON'T OWN NARUTO EITHER!
I stood on the sidelines, tired of Naruto's stupidity, Kiba's annoying voice, and Sasuke's moodiness. Fucker must be on his fucking period or something. I hid in the shadows, seeing as stealth came natural to us vampires. The girls walked to the stage. The drummer was pretty, but too pink for my taste. The bassist had a funny do, but was pretty. The guitarist would be extremely attractive if she wasn't so damn shy. They weren't the ones that caught my attention though. My eyes had found the Uchiha girl. Now that was a beautiful woman right there. Her black hair was up. Notice the past tense. The black clip holding her raven locks back was now in her hand. She tossed it to the stagehand before shaking her hair. It reached her hips, long and straight like a waterfall. She looked back at her band mates; her eyes were a sparkling set of onyx orbs. Her smile was genuine; she was truly enjoying herself. "Hiya people! We're Angels Cry. You sure you're ready for us?" the crowd shrieked their response. "Gotcha! Hit it Hina-chan!" The shy Hyuga girl began strumming with the Uchiha, their strums perfectly in sync. Then the Haruno girl started with the drums a split second before the Uchiha girl brought her lips to the microphone.
(Decode by Paramore)
How can I decide what's right
When you're clouding up my mind?
I can't win
You're losing sight
All the time
Not gonna ever own what's mine
When you're always taking sides
But you won't take away my pride
No, not this time
Not this time
How did we get here?
I used to know you so well
How did we get here?
Well, I think I know
The truth is hiding in your eyes
And it's hanging on your tongue
Just boiling in my blood
But you think that I can't see
What kind of man that you are
If you're a man at all
Well, I will figure this one out
On my own
(I'm screaming, "I love you so")
On my own
(My thoughts you can't decode)
How did we get here?
I used to know you so well, yeah
How did we get here?
Well, I think I know
Do you see what we've done?
We've gone and made such fools
Of ourselves
Do you see what we've done?
We've gone and made such fools
Of ourselves
How did we get here?
I used to know you so well, yeah
How did we get here?
Well, I used to know you so well
I think I know
I think I know
There is something I see in you
It might kill me
I want it to be true
The crowd went wild when the song ended. The girl could sing and play guitar pretty good, and the rest of the girls were pretty good themselves. When an orchestra bit began, the crowd almost stilled completely. They were anxious. I could tell. Just when I thought the Uchiha girl couldn't surprise me anymore… she did.
(Angels by Within Temptation)
Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my savior
In my time of need
Blinded by faithI couldn't hear
All the whispers
They're warning so clear
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
Now mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realize
It was all just a lie
Sparkling angel
Couldn't see
Your dark intensions
Your feelings for me
Fallen angel
Tell me why
What is the reason?
The thorn in our eye
I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realize
It was all just a lie
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
This world may have failed you
It doesn't give the reason why
You could have chosen
A different path of life
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realize
It was all just a lie
Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end
Damn, that girl could hit a note. That's all there was to it. The crowd was going absolutely nuts right now. The Uchiha girl went to the side and took a giant swig out of a water bottle they had ready for her. "Ok. Enough of that stuff. You ready to take it to the next level?" she asked the crowd. "YES!!!!!!" was the booming reply. "You sure you can take it?" the Uchiha pressed on. The crowd was screaming, showing their readiness. I smirked. She could get a lot of energy from a crowd that had been going on for some time now. Haruno clicked her sticks into a countdown. This was it. They were going to go all out on these last two songs. The Hyuga walked to the keyboard set, setting it to classic piano as the orchestrated part was played.
(Imaginary by Evanescence)
I linger in the doorwayOf alarm-clock screaming
Monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling
Tell a story
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me
Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos
Your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me
*Hinata's piano and Noriko's acoustic guitar part*
Swallowed up in the sun, they'll be screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh heavy sleep so they'll keep dreaming
The darkness of imaginary light
*waving guitar riff*
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me
Uchiha kept singing quietly, the guitar still going strong, till her final strum. It echoed out, and the crowd was wild…again. Another countdown started, and this one went harder then the others.
(Going Under by Evanescence)
Now I will tell you what I've done for youFifty thousand tears I've cried
Screaming, deceiving, and bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
(Going under!)
Don't plan to end this time
I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
(Wake up for once!)
And I'm tormented daily
Defeated by you
Just one night
Thought I'd reached the bottom
I dive again
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
Got to break through
I'm going under!
Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
(So I don't know what's real and what's not
So I don't know what's real and what's not) Always confusing the thoughts in my headOooooh
So I can't trust myself anymore
I dive again
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
Got to break through
I'm…
So go on and scream
Scream at me
So far away
I won't be broken again
I got to break
I can't keep going under
*Noriko's solo*
I dive again
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
Got to break through
I'm going under!
(Going under)
I'm going under!
(Drowning in you)
I'm going under!
The Uchiha was breathing hard, and her bangs were plastered to her forehead in sweat. The others were breathing just as hard, and were just as sweaty. They all ran forward, grabbing hands and taking a bow, before jumping up and down and offstage to the sidelines. The crowd was jeering the entire time. Panda ears blew kisses and Haruno hugged Hyuga while jumping up and down. They walked back to the green room, and I followed. Everyone from both bands was inside. The announcer was currently tallying votes to see who won. It would take a while till we would know the results. I smirked to myself. This contest was gonna be a close one.
(BIG FAVOR TO ASK REVIEWERS!!!)
Ok, hiya ppls! I need to ask you reviewers out there to participate in a vote. By reading these three chapters, you know it is a battle of the bands kind of thing going on. In your opinion… who wins?
