Can You Save Me? Chapter 9: The Audition, an adventure time with finn and jake fanfic

Author's Note: Last chapter Fionna got adopted by someone who actually wanted her as a person not a free check. Yay! Lol yesterday at work I was helping out with registration (I work at the jr high) I was helping the upcoming seventh graders who were having trouble opening their lockers open them and after they failed twice they would usually figure it out and I would say "YAY!" like it was the best thing in the world that they opened their lockers and they would just look at me weirdly. It's not my fault that I get happy about simple things and that other things piss me off so too bad meh. But they were all like "Da fuk is up with the cray-cray freshman?" lolz I love that I'm going to me a freshman next week. Anyways back to the story.

Chapter 9: The Audition

Fionna's P.O.V.

Yesterday my foster parents came back and Simone adopted me. It was pretty big. Today we were going over the rules. Since Simone became my guardian she thought she should set down some rules. Even though she trusts Marsh completely. She wanted to have the fun of setting rules.

"Marshall Lee, what is rule number five?" Simone asked

"Do not under any circumstance go into Fionna's room if she isn't home." he repeated

"Good Mar-Mar." she patted his head like he was a dog.

"Simone." he warned even though he loved this woman like she was his real mother he still had a temper.

"Your no fun." she pouted "But I do have to go now. See you crazy kids later" she speed out the door and Marshall and I slumped on the ground.

"I know we both love her to death but," Marshall started

"She's just too clingy." I finished and a worn out Marshall walked to the couch and was soon followed by and equally exhausted Fionna

They had spent many days and nights just sitting on the couch enjoying each others embrace watching movies or just talking. They had almost forgotten the audition until Marceline called to let them that if Marshall didn't make it to practice she was going over to our house and kick his butt. She said that I was okay since she probably couldn't kick my butt if she tried. I found that amusing and we walked downtown to the arcade whose name I finally learned: This. Lamest name in the history of names.

"Hey Marsh why did they name it This?" I asked mistified

"You know how some people say that 'this' is the place to be? Well they decided that 'this' was the place to be but hardly anyone comes here anyways." he said

"I see. So do you know what I should do for the audition?" I asked I was terrified I didn't know what to expect.

"Dependes Bonnie's the one in charge of the songs we have our auditionies sing. So far none have passed her test but I'm sure you'll do fine." he said which for some strange reason didn't give her any comfort at all.

We walked into the back room where the band would practice and then I saw the mics again but I had to wait.

"Yo Bonnie! We have another contestant." I heard Marshall Lee shout

"Oh another victim." she rubbed her hands together evily

"But I think this one will surprise you." he said

"Then I will make it extra hard." she said and Fionna gulped.

"Who is this contestant anyways?" she asked

"Me." I said trying to be brave

"Intresting." she came up with the perfect challenge "I know that you write songs as well as Marshall Lee so sing one of those." she said smirking

Fionna paled she didn't want to sing one of her own songs she thought they were crap and that when she wrote them she had poo-brain but then she saw Marshall give her the thumbs up sign and then she felt a burst of courage. She picked up an electric guitar, she knew how to play all the instruments there were she was just musically talented like that so she could've been given a balloon and she would be able to play it.

She thought of the perfect song. She smirked at Bonnie.

"I would like to sing an origanal that I made up recently. I hope you all like it. It's called Love or Leave 'kay." I was still smirking when I started playing the electric like a boss

Love or Leave by Becca (Fionna)

I've given you a second chance
One too many times again
No wonder then say we won't last

Though no one thinks we're meant to be
I'm still not sure what to believe
I just keep hanging on cause you're all I dream of

Wake up
I'm asleep in love again
So what
Maybe I'm not ready to begin the end

Do I love or leave you now?
Will we ever figure out we're wrong?
I wanna find the kind of love that's right where it belongs
Do I love or leave you now?
Is our timing running out of fate?
I wanna find the kind of love I know is here to stay

I was into the music and I opened my eyes for just a second to see a surprised Bonnie. Fionna-1, Bonnie-0

I keep on hiding from the truth
Because we're good when it's on mute
And that's the part I'm scared to lose

Maybe I have to crash and burn
Before I'm ever gonna learn
I'm wondering which way this loves gonna take us

I'm not
Seeing clearly anymore
Can't stop
Cuz I wanna believe you're worth fighting for

I can't bear to think I've wasted all this time
Being with someone who's poison
I am hoping that you won't be on the list of my mistakes
Is it time to break away?

Love you or leave you
What to do?
Love you or leave you
What to do?

I finished the song with a flourish and I totally nailed it since well I wrote it.

"So Bonnie, is that all you got?" I asked smirking

"Nope. I want you to sing one more song, it's something that I wrote." she smirked at me and handed me the lyrics and she jumped on stage and got behind the piano. I heard the intro and I swore to myself I was going to nail this.

Make it in America by Victoria Justice in Victorious (Fionna)

Bonnie started playing the piano and I got ready. You can do this Fionna

"Got a one way ticket down a 2 way street
Got the wind in my hair and there's dust on my feet
I'm just trying to make it in America

Only thing to my name is an old t-shirt
Faded 1985 from a Stones' concert
And I'm dying to make it in America

Something I knew and ironically I had a 1985 t-shirt that I got from a garage sale a long time ago.

And I'm singing the words to my favorite song
With the rag top down and my glasses on
And I'm driving straight through America

I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one

I, I wanna show some skin
Yeah baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I want to make it in America
Make it in America

I can see my star sunset and vine
Gonna carve my name in the Hollywood sign
Yeah I gotta, gotta make it in America

See me wearin' a smile, even if I'm broke
I'll be singing the words from a song I wrote
And I called it Make It In America

I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one

I, I wanna show some skin
Baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
Make it in America

I can feel the sweat dripping down my face
I can hear my heart as it starts to race
Yeah sometimes this world's such a lonely place
If I just push on I know that

I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one

I, I wanna show some skin
Baby I need the ocean
And you can't stop me now I've got my heart in motion
I wanna make it in America
Make it in America

I wasn't used to this kind of song so I didn't know if I did it right or not so I looked at Bonnie she nodded and then turned to the band.

"Who votes Fionna in."

I was overjoyed when the whole band including a brooding Bonnie agreed to let me in. She stormed off grumbling about something.

"Marsh is she going to be okay?" I asked

"She'll be fine she's just not used to people getting past the sing a song of your own part of her test because everyone else had never prepared a song before she was bluffing when she said she knew you wrote songs. Hell even I didn't know that." he said but then it looked like he hit a sour note in his stomach because he made a face of shock "Fi I think you need to go apologize to Bonnie." he said and I did kind of feel so I went to find her.

I walked to the alley behind This and I saw her crying.

"Bonnie? What's wrong?" I was worried was it me that made her cry

"You sang the song I wrote better than I ever did!" she burst

"I highly doubt that no one can sing a song better than the writer. Why don't we go inside and we can prove it." I smiled at her and she looked up and nodded

We went back inside and we got everyone together.

"Bonnie is gonna sing us a song you guys! She is going to prove that she can sing "Make it in America" better than me, and since she wrote it I think she will." I said

"What! Bonnie I didn't know you could sing?" Finn exclaimed

"I never sing, but that doesn't mean I can't." she responded

"Let's do this." she looked at me and I started playing the piano instead of her.

Make it in America by Victoria Justice in Victorious (Bonnie)

"Got a one way ticket down a 2 way street
Got the wind in my hair and there's dust on my feet
I'm just trying to make it in America

I looked at her and she was into in as much as I was when I was singing my own song. And I was right she was better than me.

Only thing to my name is an old t-shirt
Faded 1985 from a Stones' concert
And I'm dying to make it in America

And I'm singing the words to my favorite song
With the rag top down and my glasses on
And I'm driving straight through America

I wanna taste the sun
Cause baby I'm born to run
I got a feeling that I'm not the only one

Not only is Bonnie a great song writer she was a great singer.
