Chapter 2: Is It You?
~A few years later~
Goku walked the streets of the city. He decided to stop for a little break at the cafe. He sat at a table near the stage where a girl with midnight hair came up onto the stage and sat at the piano.
She spoke into the mic, "Hi everyone. This song is about what it like for me when I was a little girl when I was kidnapped. Hope you all like it."
Shed Some Light on Me
(Plays piano)
*In the meadow
where we used to play
the memories of how we lost our way
In a flash you were gone and
Darkness all around me
(Violin plays w/ piano)
I've waited so long for you
to rescue me
So forgive me if I seem so
distant than I was before
Just promise me you won't leave me again
I've been away from home too long so come
and bring me home
Bring me towards the light
I'm tired of only seeing darkness
Come shed some light on me
(Cello plays w/ piano and violin)
I've been scared and alone
I was in the hands of a stranger
Who only was seeking revenge
I broke free and again was thinking about you
I've been away from home too long so come
and bring me home
Bring me towards the light
I'm tired of only seeing darkness
Come shed some light on me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, oh (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Ah, ah, ah, ah (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Everytime I close my eyes
All I see is your face! (Ah, ah, ah)
I can't get you out of my mind!
You keep haunting me (Oh, oh, oh)
In my dreams, I dream that we never
apart from each other
I've been away from home too long so come
and bring me home
Bring me towards the light
I'm tired of only seeing darkness
Come shed some light on me
(Cello and violin die)
I wish we could be at the meadow
where we belong
I've been searching and never gave up on you
Because you are my one best friend*
There was a round of applause and Goku knew who she was. As she got off the stage, Goku walked over to her and spoke," Akari?"
She turned around and gasped in realization, "Goku? Is it truly you?"
"Yep," Goku laughed.
She hugged him, "I missed you."
"I missed you too. Great song."
"You really think so?"
"Yep!" Goku smiled.
"Thanks. So why are you here?"
"I should be asking you that. How come you didn't come home?"
"I don't know. I guess because that was were Kadeem would search if I ran away there."
"Oh...um...Akari you don't mind if we...you know hung out...like we use to?"
"Sure, I can't turn down a day with you."
Goku gave Akari a huge smile making her smile back.
