Songbirds Chapter 6, a keeper of the lost cities fanfic

A/N- Yeah, I don't know why I haven't been putting any songs into the story recently. In all honesty, I had meant to put one into the last one, but my plans and my writing-mind had different ideas. So, I'll do my best to put one into this chapter, and make it a bit longer. At the very least, you get what will hopefully be at least a semi-funny sleepover!

Speaking of which, I only got three suggestion in the reviews. Actually, I only got four reviews. Seriously, you all left me with having to resort to my mom, aunt, step-sister, and psycho friend?! Not cool... But you're all awesome, so I'm not gonna yell at you in caps lock.

Thanks to Everblaze, ForeverFreeFall, and Katie for the ideas. I'm not really good at writing humor. (Which is why I had to resort to what I'm dubbing my Prank Team)

Now that I'm done ranting, onto the chapter!

Sophie's POV

The next afternoon, after school let out, my group of friends and I walked to the preserve where I lived. It wasn't that far from the school, and it was a nice day out. The others-excluding Fitz, of course- had all their stuff for the sleepover.

When we walked in, we were greeted with snacks from Grady and Edaline. They couldn't stay long, though, having to take care of the animals. We all sat around the kitchen table, pulling out our homework, so we could get that out of the way early. Luckily, the teachers had been pretty lenient with the amounts of homework they gave us. So, it was only about two hours before everyone was done, and we could get started with our sleepover.

Jensi, Fitz, Dex, Keefe, Biana, Marella and I all sat in a circle on the floor, trying to figure out what we wanted to do first.

"Oh, oh, let's do makeovers!" Biana exclaimed. Marella nodded eagerly

"Yeah, no." Keefe shot the idea down.

I sighed, knowing that they would only insist on it later in the night.

"Well, why don't we do prank calls?" Dex suggested.

Fitz shook his head. "Too early. We gotta wait until later in the night to do that. Same with Truth or Dare."

An idea popped into my head. "Why don't we watch some movies?"

Everyone shared a look, and we agreed. Then, came the next question.

What to watch.

It took about an hour, but we decided on Despicable Me, which seemed to suit everyone just fine. You really can't go wrong with a kids movie.

We watched that, then the second one right after. Somewhere in between, we ordered pizza, and were just finishing up dinner by the time the second movie was over. I glanced at the clock, checking the time. 7:30. It was prank calling time.

We all sat on the floor (during the movie, we had kind of moved around, and weren't in our original circle), and started a debate about who to call first. We settled on a friend of Dex's, who had moved away. Biana entered the number onto her phone, put it on speaker, and we waited. After about a minute, he picked up.

Fitz was the first to talk. In an unrecognizable accent, he started yelling. "Ling! Ling Choy! You have dishona famiry, and da Shir-Wee Tempru!"

We hung up, but not after listening to the person on the other end sound confused. Then, we decided on one of Keefe's teachers, whom I had the phone number to. When they picked up, Marella was the one to talk. "Herro, and dis is Microshoft. You has virus on computa, we fix for 100 paper monays."

"What? How would-" We didn't listen to the rest of the response, just hanging up. An idea suddenly popped into my head. I took Biana's cell, and started punching in a number. When they picked up, I started talking in a fake voice. "Hello? This is Chevy, right? I have a problem with my car."

The person on the other end paused. Then, seeming to sense that this was a prank, started playing along. "Yes, how may I be of service?"

"Well, somebody stole my car radio, and now I just sit in silence."

"And, how long has the radio been gone?"

"About a month. I ought to replace that slot with what I once bought."

"I understand. You will get a new car radio soon."

"Thank you. Sometimes quiet is violent, you know."

"Yes. Have a good day!" Then they hung up. We all looked at each other, then burst out laughing. I knew that they would have played along.

We kept on prank calling people, but we soon ran out of people to call. So, that meant that it was time to move on to Truth or Dare.

Oh, crap.

Fitz's POV

I was kind of scared of what would happen during Truth or Dare. And you really couldn't blame me, given the mischievous looks on Biana, Marella, and Keefe's faces.

"So," I said, kind of nervous. "Who's going first?"

That was the million dollar question. No one wanted to be chosen first, but everyone seemed to want to be the one to give the dare/question. Keefe answered the question, though.

"You are," he smirked. "Truth or dare?"

I eyed him, not sure what the safer path would be. Knowing him, neither. Well, then, my answer was of course going to be "Dare."

Keefe's grin became evil. Starting to regret my decision. "I dare you to... go outside and sing Let it Go loudly."

I sighed, kinda regretting my decision. But, I stood up, walked outside, and sang the stupid song. When I turned to go back in, I saw that the others had followed me, and Keefe had recorded the whole thing. Well, there goes my social life...

When all of us were back inside, and we were settled back into our circle, the game resumed.

"Dex," I said, "truth or dare?"

"Truth."

I thought for a second. "What is the most embarrassing thing you ever agreed to?"

Dex sighed. "Other than this conversation? I let my siblings put me in a dress."

Everyone laughed, and Dex blushed. "Keefe, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"Hmm. I dare you to repeat the last three words I say for the rest of the game."

"Of the game." Keefe turned to Sophie. "Foster, truth or dare?"

Sophie looked slightly worried. "...Dare?"

Keefe smirked. "I dare you to kiss me."

...What?!

Sophie blushed scarlet, and I had to hold myself back as she walked up, and gave him a quick peck on the cheek. Why was I jealous? I mean, I was seriously pissed, and that was understandable. But jealous? What was wrong with me?

Sophie cleared her throat. "Biana. Truth or dare?"

"Truth."

Sophie had paused. "Longest you've gone without showering?"

"One week." Biana wrinkled her nose. "I hated it. Marella, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"Dare you to sing everything you say for the rest of the game."

"Okay," Marella sang. "Jensi, what do you choose."

Jensi apparently felt like singing along, because his words continued Marella's tune. "I choose dare."

"I dare you to sing Let it Rock with me."

"Let's do it!"

(JensiMarellaBoth)

I see your dirty face
High behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow
So you pray to God
To justify the way you live a lie
Live a lie
Live a lie

And you take your time
And you do your crime
Well you made your bed
I'm in mine

Because when I arrive
I, I'll bring the fire
Make you come alive
I can take you higher
What this is, forgot?
I must now remind you
Let It Rock
Let It Rock
Let It Rock

Now the son's disgraced
He, who knew his father
When he cursed his name
Turned, and chased the dollar
But it broke his heart
So he stuck his middle finger
To the world
To the world
To the world

And you take your time
And you stand in line
Well you'll get what's yours
I got mine

Yeah!

Weezy!

Just let it rock (rock!)

Let it rock (rock!)

Let it rock (rock!)

Let it rooooock!

We all clapped, because, honestly, they were pretty good. Jensi turned on Keefe. "Truth or dare?"

"Dare."

Jensi grinned evilly. "I dare you to steal a squirrel from the park."

"Excuse me, what?"

"Get a squirrel from the park, and bring it back here. You can enlist the help of anyone in this room."

Keefe nodded slowly, obviously formulating a plan. "I'll need Fitz, Dex, and Foster, plus a box, a stick, fishing line, and a ton of nuts."

Great.

A/N- The song was Let it Rock, by Kevin Rudolf. Personally, I prefer the shortened version, because it isn't dirty. Here's the video I usually watch: watch?v=GNWBAcFLAmE

Keefe's dare will be completed in the next chapter. Yeah, this is probably gonna be fun to write! I'll have to consult my psycho...

Okay, I will give a shout out to the people who got my quote, along with who said it. And, I would just like to say, I have done all of those prank calls before, along with a bunch of others. It is SUPER funny when the people respond right

Hope you enjoyed, please review, follow, fav, and feel free to PM me! Until next time, Peepsicles!
