Hello readers! Now to continue the story that you all love so much! Enjoy!
Chapter 6
It's been a month since that weird encounter with Doc and she hasn't really been acting the same. But I had to put all of that aside because I was faced with a certain…problem. A talent show and not just any talent show…a talent show that Doc took the courtesy of signing me up for! Damn her! "Why in hell would you do that?!" I yelled at said strawberry-blonde, who was currently sipping coffee without a care in the world "I thought it'd be nice to give you some exposure to contests and besides…" she stood before continuing "I know you have talent! And you need to show it!" she proclaimed as she pointed at me.
"But…you…Damn it Doc!" I exclaimed as I glared at her but she smirked, knowing that I can't get out of it without having to break the rules but I would never try to do that. "You have a week before you have to perform in front of all of Beacon…have fun!" she said as she plopped down and went back to drinking her coffee. Growling, I turned on my heel and left her office and towards Team JNPR's room, hoping one of them could help get me out of it. I knocked and waited, soon Jaune opened the door "Hey Alex, what brings you here?" he asked "Jaune…can I come in?" I asked calmly, trying to keep my rage under control. He stepped to the side and allowed me to come into the room. Looking around, I noticed that all except Nora were in the room "Hello Alex" Phyrra said as she saw me and Ren only gave me a nod "Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you could, uh…talk Ozpin into letting me get out of the talent show?" I asked and after a moment of silence, Ren answered "I'm sorry Alex, Goodwitch made it clear that once you're signed up for the show, there's no way out" I sighed and muttered out "Well shit…" I suddenly looked up at the three "Are any of you in the show?" I asked, hopeful but all of that was shattered when they all shook their heads no.
"Damn it…" I said 'There's no choice…I have to get disqualified' I thought but before I could think of any way for me to get out of it, I heard Team RWBY's door slam shut. I peeked my head out to see Weiss storming off, I shrugged and decided to see what was happening with Team RWBY. After almost bumping into an angry Yang when I went to knock, I was suddenly drug into their room and plopped onto a bed "Sit there and don't move" Yang commanded me and I did as I was told. I noticed that Blake, Ruby, and Nora were in the room as well, Yang cleared her throat which got my attention "Now tell us what you think" she said as I looked over them and noticed that Ruby was starting to fidget as her face started to turn as red as her cloak. Suddenly Blake and Yang started to harmonize while Nora seemed to be sucking in a breath and suddenly Yang, Ruby, and Blake started to sing:
They see you as small and helpless
They see you as just as child
Surprise when they find out that a warrior will soon run wild
Prepare for your greatest moments
Prepare for your finest hour
The dream that you've always dreamed is suddenly about to flower
We are lightning
Straying from the thunder
Miracles of ancient wonder
This will be the day we've waited for
This will be the day we open up the door
I don't wanna hear your absolution
Hope you're ready for a revolution
Welcome to a world of new solutions
Welcome to a world of bloody evolution
In time-your heart will open minds
A story will be told and victory is in a simple soul
Your world needs a great defender
Your world's in the way of harm
You want a romantic life, a fairytale that's full of charm
Beware that the light is fading
Beware as the dark returns
Ruby then started to sing by herself and if my jaw went any lower, I'm sure it'd snap off:
This world's unforgiving
Even brilliant lights will cease to burn
Legends scatter
Day and Night will sever
Yang and Blake then joined her again:
Hope and Peace are lost forever
This will be the day we've waited for
This will be the day we open up the door
I don't wanna your absolution
Hope you're ready for a revolution
Welcome to a world of new solutions
Ruby then started to finish the song:
Welcome to a world of bloody evolution
In time your heart will open minds a story will be told
Yang and Blake joined back in and I could tell it was about to end:
Victory is in a simple
Victory is in a simple
Soul
With that last lyric, Ruby, Yang, and Blake hummed while Nora continued the beat for five seconds and it ended and I just sat there speechless "Well? What do you think?" I heard Yang ask but I couldn't stop staring at the four girls. After finally finding my voice, I answered "I didn't know you girls could sing!" I exclaimed, causing Ruby to blush more "Thanks" Yang said as she grinned. I got up and looked at the four "So I take it that you're in the talent show?" I asked as they all shook their heads "I didn't want to but Yang decided to put my name down" Ruby said as she glared at her sister. "Don't worry Rubes, you'll do fine" Blake said as she tried to calm the young scythe-wielder "Especially with a voice like that…" I muttered but they seemed to hear it, causing Ruby to blush more. Without anything else being said, I left the room and went back to JNPR's room.
Once Jaune opened the door, I immediately asked "Please do the show for me?" I asked as I crossed my hands in front of me in a pleading manner. After the team looked at each other, Ren answers "I can't…not my forte" and with that, I looked at Jaune and Phyrra with, and I couldn't believe I did this, puppy dog eyes causing the duo to smile and agree.
Immediately, I started to find something we could perform and after assessing Jaune and Phyrra's skills, I came to the conclusion; Jaune can play a guitar but Phyrra can't sing. I'm screwed royally…damn it Doc! I will make this work however, talent show be damned. But what I didn't know is that my competition will be very tight.
Talent Show! Now then everyone, I will say that what the song was that the girls sang was called: This will be the Day (Acapella cover by AwkwardMarina) look it up, it's very good but next chapter will be the talent show…hope you guys enjoy but until next time…stay tuned readers!
