During the weekend, at the mall, Harvey was doing some tricks for the talent show. "Behold my amazing talents of conjuring and legerdemain as I take this timepiece and perform an illusion of such subtle nuance as to amaze the crowned heads of Europe!" Harvey said from the stage as the crowd cheered for him.
"This watch is the best a teacher's salary can buy. Please be careful, Harvey." Mr. Layer said, giving Harvey his watch. "Harvey? I know not this Harvey of whom you speak. I am the Great Harvini. And my next feat of illusion shall be to wrap this watch in a handkerchief... and seemingly smash it." Harvey said as he pull a hammer from behind his back and smash the watch.
"Man, if Harvey gets detention, I'll be amazed." I said, watching from behind the curtains before heading backstage, where Sabrina, Zelda, Hilda and Chloe were at in a bubblegum band outfit. "No, I'm Strawberry Babe. Dibs." Hilda said. "Dibs. How old are you? Let Sabrina be Strawberry Babe." Zelda said.
"Okay. walked in a conversation I have no clue about." I said. "I called it first. Sabrina can be Vanilla Babe." Hilda said, acting like a child. "I don't want to be Vanilla Babe. It's so milquetoast." Sabrina said. "Well, I'm certainly not gonna be Vanilla Babe. I'm Juicy Babe!" Chloe said. "Ooh, I'm wanna be Juicy Babe too!" Hilda said.
"And this just turned awkward." I said. "I thought you wanted to be Strawberry Babe?" Zelda asked Hilda. "Juicy could be my middle name." Hilda said, twirling her drumstick. "No. Sabrina, you're Strawberry Babe. Chloe, you're Juicy. I'll be Vanilla Babe and Hilda, you're Chocolate Chunk Babe." Zelda said.
"Chocolate Chunk Babe? I'm Chunk Babe? I don't think so." Hilda said. "Look, who cares what flavor we are, as long as we get to play together. That's all that really matters." Sabrina said. "Exactly. Though I don't know what you gals were talking about and got really confused by it." I said. "Aaron, there you are. Ready to help us with this?" Sabrina asked as one her guitar string snapped.
"Easy for you two to say, Miss Strawberry and Mr. One Man Crew! You've got a cool flavor, Sabrina. And you're the one who records our performance, manage our special effects and made our outfits, Aaron." Hilda told us. "That doesn't mean you could be sassy, Hilda. Just accept the flavor you are." I said, just as I heard Harvey getting booed at by the crowd. "Guessing his act wasn't a hit." I muttered as I pulled Harvey behind the curtains.
"Tough crowd tonight." Harvey said. "But it's the middle of the day." I said, holding out my iPod which showed the time. "Next onstage, Greendale's own Gem Stone!" Ms. Bleachstain announced. "Good luck. You'll need it." Gem said, wearing an orange wig and black dress, as she walk passed us to the stage. "Hey, Gem! Break a leg! Literally." I said. "Aaron! That's something I would say." Sabrina said in shock. "I know. Thought to say it myself." I said.
Gem had a blue spotlight on her and some fog. She then started singing.
"Candy, candy
"I love candy
"Candy, candy
"I really love candy
"Candy, candy
"Isn't it dandy?
"Candy, candy
"Did I mention candy?"
"Wow, she sounds great." Chloe said. "No she doesn't. She's just repeating the same thing over and over again. Just like that Justin Bieber song, Baby. And at least that have different words in it." I said. "Then why do you have it in your playlist?" Sabrina asked. "Because it's okay in my books." I said, as we saw Gem drinking water, yet the singing still continued.
"She's lip-synching. She's not even singing." Sabrina said. "Huh, should've noticed that since it didn't sound like her. Usually she sounds terrible when it comes to singing." I said. The song ended while the crowd cheered.
"Okay, we know how dumb everyone is." I said. "How dumb are they?" Chloe asked. "Dumb enough to not notice Gem was lip-synching when she drank water." I said. Gem's backup dancers, who showed up during the 'song' carried Gem off stage. "Boo, you stink." Someone from the audience said.
"Can you say, first place?" Gem asked us. "Obviously, you can't. Unless it's been pre-recorded and played back for you." Hilda told Gem. "Sure. First place, for them." I said to Gem, pointing at Sabrina, Chloe, Zelda and Hilda. "You know, Aaron, it's not too late to join me." Gem said. "Let me think about it. No." I said simply.
"Forget about her, Aunt Hilda and Aaron. We're up next." Sabrina said. "And we're gonna show Gem Stone how it's done." Chloe said. "Knock them dead, girls!" I said with a thumbs up. "Sure thing, Aaron." Sabrina said with a thumbs up.
"Last...*Gets interrupted by chicken clucking*, but hopefully not least, put your hands together for the Flavor Babes." Ms. Bleachstain said, as the curtains opened, showing Sabrina, Chloe, Zelda and Hilda in their places with their instruments. The crowd cheered loudly for them as Sabrina sang.
"Orange, mango, coconut and peanut butter brickle
"Bubblegum and tapioca tickle
"Cotton candy, caramel
"Banana from the bayou
"Got a la mode with rocky road
"We're here to satisfy you" Sabrina sang as everyone covered their ears in cringe. Heck, even the chicken did so. The chicken then grab two suitcases, grab a hat, and left. "Wait for me!" The same person said, running out with the chicken. The flowers wilted and Harvey's hat drooped. "Geez, that's a bit extreme." I said, uncovering my ears.
"Then again, maybe not." I said, covering my ears again while seeing rabbits jumped out of the hat. "Wait, why didn't Harvey went with that trick?" I asked, before noticing that the Sabrina, Chloe, Zelda and Hilda were disorganized with their music. I just face-palmed at that.
I guess even Ms. Bleachstain got fed up with this, since she pulled the plug on the show. Literally. "That's enough. Thank you. That certainly was wonderfully...unique." Ms. Bleachstain said. "So, do we get the prize money in cash or check?" Hilda asked. "I don't think it's gonna happen." I said.
"Without further ado, I'd like to announce the winner of the First Annual Greendale Community Talent Show. Gem Stone!" Ms. Bleachstain announced, much to our shock. The curtains closed on us, but we could still hear the song and the crowd cheering for Gem. "Yep, they're stupid to not notice lip-synching." I said.
"Ms. Bleachstain, why didn't we win?" Sabrina asked as Ms. Bleachstain walked backstage. "I felt there was something missing. You just didn't have enough star quality." Ms. Bleachstain said. "Aaron?" Sabrina asked for confirmation. "Well..." I began with some hesistance.
"Sabrina. Maybe later, I'll introduce you to two of my friends, Blue and Sir." Gem said before closing the curtains. "How could they not like us? No star quality? We've got star quality coming out of our sweat glands." Sabrina said.
"Well, at least I know it wasn't me. I was on pitch." Chloe said. "What's that supposed to mean?" Sabrina asked. "Girls, girls. Remember, the reason we formed this band was to have fun." Zelda said. "I know, but can't you guys used magic? Give us some star quality?" Chloe asked.
"No magic." Zelda said. "I agree. After all, using magic for events like this make us the cheaters." I said. "Do I hear the need for a little magic? For I am Harvini the world's greatest mistifier." Harvey said as random music came from nowhere. "Seriously, where is all this random noises coming from?" I asked. Harvey shrugged before leaving.
"Please, one little spell?" Sabrina asked. "Absolutely not." Zelda said, shaking her head. "Magic is not to be used-" Zelda began. "For frivolous purposes. I know. I know. It's just this one time, please." Sabrina begged. "Oh, we'd be supplying those love outfits. Come on." Chloe said.
"I'll even take Vanilla and let you take Peppermint." Hilda added. "Oh sure, on the surface, the life of a rockstar sounds fun with fame, unlimited money, screaming fans, all the parties, muscular roadies. Do you know how quickly you'd get tired of that?" Zelda asked. "I think they won't get tired anytime soon." I said. "Never!" Sabrina, Chloe and Hilda said, confirming my words as I shrug.
"Though, we, mainly me, waste a lot of money just to buy the fabric for your costumes and your guys special effects. So maybe if you do this, you can repay me." I said. "Hmm. You've got a point. I want in!" Zelda exclaimed. "Aaron? You are our one man crew. What you say?" Sabrina asked. "I say let do it for the music!" I said, joining in.
Later at Sabrina's house, Sabrina was looking at a spellbook. "Pop stars! Make us into pop stars!" Hilda said. "Well, give Sabrina a moment to find the spell first." I said. Zelda grab the spellbook and look through the pages. "Here it is. Bangles go-go, Spice Girl supremes. Bring to life our pop star dreams." Zelda said as green magic came and swirled around us.
The magic gave Sabrina, Chloe, Zelda and Hilda all new clothes, while I had some new equipment for their performances and wearing Blue's outfit from FireRed and LeafGreen. "Well, the magic knew what we need. And then some." I said as I felt my pockets and found extra money.
"Killer threads." Chloe said with a snap of her fingers. The five of us soon high-fived each other. "Scope this guitar." Sabrina said as she played a note that sounds good. "This keyboard rocks." Zelda said after she played a couple of notes on it.
"Ooh, sparkly shirt." Hilda said. We soon heard people cheering. We looked out of the window to see everyone in town outside the house, with a couple of people pressing their faces against the window. "Gah!" I exclaimed in shock. "Wait, does anyone noticed that the house is bigger?" I asked.
"The spell must've altered reality. We're famous!" Sabrina said. "You mean, nobody will treat me as a freak?" I asked with a smile. "Since you're our one man crew, no. They won't treat you like a freak." Sabrina said. "Yes! Yippee! I can finally be treated like anything except a freak!" I said in excitement.
"Ladies, ladies, ladies, I've been looking everywhere for you. You too, Aaron. We're late." Salem said, wearing a purple business suit and sunglasses. "Wha?" I asked, staring at Salem's fashion choice. And we're talking about the cat who wears a bathrobe most of the time. "Late for what?" Sabrina asked. Salem just motioned for us to follow him.
The six of us soon arrived at a random room. We saw the instruments set up. "Cool, backstage passes." Chloe said. "Who's playing?" Sabrina asked. Salem gave us a unamused look and his hands on his hips. "You are. Chop-chop. And Aaron, get the television cameras set up, and start filming them." Salem said.
All of us look shocked by his words. "Are you kidding? We don't even know how to play our instruments." Sabrina said. "And the only recording I've done is from an iPod." I added. "Who cares? You look great. And you don't need a whole lot of experience to film people, Aaron. You just need to point the television camera at them and not move it around that much." Salem said as he pushed the four onto stage. He then rushed back to me and pushed me onto the seat with the television camera.
I used the camera's controls to move it outside. From what I see from the camera's the whole city was in the audience. "Holy mother of pearl." I muttered, already breaking out in sweat. Now, as you recall in my last story, I mentioned I don't sing in front of others. Well, the reason why is because...my voice kinds of crack if I know someone notices me singing. Heck, just seeing a big crowd causes me to break out in sweat.
Anyways, the others walked to their instruments. Chloe blew into the wrong side of the tuba. "Heh, sorry. Wrong hole." She said through the camera. "Well, at least she help me forgot about the crowd. Now just need move the camera to face them." I said as I carefully moved the camera controls to do that. The music started palying as Sabrina started singing.
"Orange, mango, coconut and peanut butter brickle
"Bubblegum and butterum, tapioca tickle
"What's your favorite flavor?
"When you're on a sweet snack tear
"You want something to savor
"We'll make your tonsils ring
"Come on, Sabrina, sing
"Cotton candy, caramel
"Banana from the bayou
"Got a la mode with rocky road
"We're here to satisfy you
"The Flavor Babes will tempt your palette,
"Like you've been hit with a wooden mallet
"The flavor babes are hot & icy,
"Tart & tangy,
"Salty spicy,
"Tutti frutti
"Sweet n sour
"Flavor Babes got flavor po-oower
"Orange, mango, coconut and peanut butter brickle
"Bubblegum and butterum, tapioca tickle
"What's your favorite flavor?
"When you're on a sweet snack tear
"You want something to savor
"We'll make your tonsils ring
"Come on, Sabrina, sing"
Suddenly, Sabrina pushed Chloe away from the center of the stage, taking all the attention. "Oh lord and ladies no. The price of fame is upon them." I commented as I continued recording. All while Chloe had a look of anger on her face.
Within the next week, the five of us were chased down by the Flavor Babes' fanbase. AKA, the entire town. And all while the song was playing, due to a music video Salem swore I helped made for Sabrina, Chloe, Zelda and Hilda. And yet despite all this chasing, I was smiling, due to nobody looking at me like I was a freak. Which I'm not.
Heck, their fame is off the roofs, their CDs were sold out. We stop at a crosswalk due to the signs. We all laughed at the taxi full of crazy fans driving by. The signs soon told us it was okay to walk across the street, which we began to do. However, the others stop in place as I recorded it, similar to a Beatles' reference. Yeah, this was another music video for their band, with Salem giving me a thumbs up for the work.
I arrived to school first with a lot of kids wanting my autograph, asking how it is to be a one man crew for the Flavor Babes. I sign some autographs and told them it was exhausting, but it has to be done. Soon, Sabrina arrived with everyone wanting her photo and autograph. However, Chloe arrive via helicopter, getting everyone's attention and causing Sabrina to be mad. Despite this, I'm just glad to be treated like this. Like everything I do is at least normal, or something worth positive reaction.
Soon, Sabrina and Chloe were competing over the attention. First, with Chloe relaxing on her yacht, only for Sabrina to have a cruise ship. Or the two trying to be in the literal and metaphorical spotlight. Heck, Sabrina broke her guitar over getting pushed out of it, and the crowd cheered for that. Only for Chloe to jump the gun by using explosives to send her tuba into the air, no wait, into space, with Sabrina getting mad at that.
Soon, we were looking at a picture of Sabrina and the others. "You know what this says about me? That the Flavor Babes are sloppy drinkers. We pass. What else do we got?" Sabrina asked Salem and me. "Okay, how about this hot, little item? Guaranteed to sell half a million units. Flavor Babes action figures." Salem said, holding one up. It was one for Hilda.
"Ooh!" Hilda said before grabbing it out of Salem's paw and licking it. "Hey, this doesn't taste like my flavor! This should taste like my flavor." Hilda said. "Well, he never said they have any flavors, did he?" I asked Hilda. "We pass. What else have we got?" Sabrina asked.
"Well, we have a Flavor Babe comic book, a Flavor Babe clothing line, Flavor Babe candy." Salem said. "Does it taste like my flavor?" Hilda asked. "Yes, of course the candy taste like your flavor." Salem said. "I was talking about the clothing line." Hilda said.
"No, the clothing line doesn't taste like your flavor. Because it doesn't have flavors." I said. "Well, they better." Hilda said. "Ah. I'll, uh, make a note." Salem said, before he took a drink from a bottle he took out of his suit. "I'm starting to like this version of reality. I'm treated as normal. Salem is our best bud. And even better, you four are famous! What's more could we ask for?" I asked.
Soon, the T.V. was on a random channel. "You know you've made it big when Weird Al parodies your song on T.V." A guy said. "Hmm." I said in wonder. It showed Weird Al doing a ad, wearing a weird outfit. "Well, they don't call him Weird Al for nothing. Then again, I got 'Dare to be Stupid' on my playlist." I said as Weird Al start the parody song.
"Got hair and galore from every pore
"We're scared that it might kill us
"Now we want to shave our heads
"More often than Bill Willis
"I've got an electric shaver
"For all my back hair
"Wanna do me a favor?
"If you would be so kind
"And help me reach behind" Okay, this just went from weird to disgusting, fast. A commercial with tons of body hair and all that. Ugh. *Shudders in disgust*
"I find a lot of shaving cream's the slickest way to do it
"It makes my back bone tickle and it turns my spinal fluid
"I got an electric shaver
"For shaving my back hair
"I love my electric shaver
"It cuts me real close
"It's great for up my nose" It continued with showing Weird Al in a Tarzan's outfit, swinging in his own nose.
"Switch." Sabrina said, as the channel changed. "Switch, switch." Sabrina repeated. "Switch." Chloe added. "Thank you." I said. "Did I say you could switch the channel?" Sabrina asked Chloe. "Switch back." Sabrina told the guy holding the remote.
"Who cashed out and made you Tupoba? Switch." Chloe told the guy. The two soon argue about switching, causing the guy to sweat, trying to figure out who to listen to. The remote got heated up due to this that it melted.
"Wait, this is ridiculous. We can't treat each other like this." Sabrina said. "You're right." Chloe said. "I mean, we're acting like children." Sabrina said. "We are children." Chloe reminded her. "You're right." Sabrina said before she and Chloe started the argument of the channels again.
"Excuse me, ladies and sir. You have a visitor." One of the butlers said. "Not Leo DiWolf again." Sabrina said. "The young actor gentleman? No, ma'am. We have a restraining order against him." The butler said, as Harvey came flying in on his skateboard. "It's Master Harvey." The butler then said.
"Sab. Chloe, Aaron, where have you guys been?" Harvey asked us as he landed on the back of the couch. "I've been looking all over for you at school. I need my best bud in the world." Harvey said, nudging me with his elbow.
"Really? Wait, what did we do at the sleepover two years ago?" I asked Harvey. "Well, I wanted to play Truth or Dare, but you politely declined and I respect that. So, we just watch some of those cartoons you like to watch." Harvey said. "W-We did? I mean, of course we did." I said, feeling happy that Harvey was also treating me like a average person.
"Public school? Are you running a fever?" Chloe asked Harvey. "So, you guys heard that Gem was caught passing notes with, get this, Rory Fleischman. Can you believe it? Snoring Rory!" Harvey said. "Ha! I can believe it." I said.
"And to think that Gem used to think she has a chance with you, Aaron? Before you got famous with Sabrina and Chloe." Harvey said. "Wait, Gem's not after me?" I asked. "Uh yeah. Haven't for years." Harvey said. Added bonus: Gem's no longer after me. I wouldn't trade this for the world!
"Is that why you came here? To tell us that?" Sabrina asked. "How quaint." Chloe said. "Well, not just that." Harvey said. "Go on. Tell us more." I said, while Chloe and Sabrina looked at me with shock. "I just wanted to, you know, chill." Harvey said. "You want to chill? Take up ice-skating." Sabrina told Harvey, to which Chloe laughed at. Harvey look angry before getting up.
"Sabrina, can I ask you something?" Harvey asked. "I'm not gonna give you a autograph. If you want an autograph, you'll just have to buy one like everyone else." Sabrina said. "That isn't what I wanted to ask. I wanted to ask what happened to the old Sabrina. The nice Sabrina." Harvey said as Chloe started laughing again.
"And you too. You know, you guys used to be so cool. For girls, I mean. You used to be cool. Right now, the only who's cool is Aaron and he's acting like some of this is new. See you later, Aaron." Harvey said as he let. "Harvey, wait!" I said, but too late as he left. "Thanks, you two. You drove off Harvey." I said as I left them alone.
Later, I was waiting with Hilda and Zelda. "They're late again. How are we suppose to record the song with half the band?" Zelda asked. "Have you noticed the change in Chloe and Sabrina ever since we became superstars?" Hilda asked.
"Aside from the narcissistic, self-absorption, and the megalomaniacal self-indulgence? No." Zelda said. "You forgot to mention they're acting like spoiled brats." I said. "That too." Zelda said just as Chloe came in. "Sorry I'm late. I was staffing my summer home. Is it ghost to hire a full-time flosser? You know, for my, uh, teeth." Chloe told us. Before we could answer, Sabrina came in.
"I don't care how you do it, Chauncey. From now on, I want authentic French Toast from Paree. Capisce?" Sabrina asked someone on her phone before she end the call and flip the phone shut. "So, are you ready for my vocals?" Sabrina asked us.
"Your vocals? I'm gonna sing lead on the next track." Chloe said. "No. But maybe you can sing lead in your next life." Sabrina said. "Either I sing or I walk." Chloe threatened. "Hold on here, girls. Let's just try to keep our cool." Hilda said. "Exactly. Let's not say anything we might regret." I added.
"I'm keeping mine. Too bad Chloe never had one to begin with." Sabrina retorted. "What did you say?!" Chloe asked. "Chloe, you play the French Horn. Do you know how lame that is? A French Horn in a rock band? Everyone laughs at you." Sabrina said. Chloe grabs the French Horn back. "Wait, you were using a French Horn?" I asked.
"I am so outta here!" Chloe snapped as she left. "Wait! Chloe, don't go! We can't do it without you!" Hilda called out as Chloe left. "If that's how you feel, fine. I've got three words for you: so-lo career." Sabrina said. "That's actually two words." Zelda said. "Yeah, you just made solo two words." I said.
"Okay, geniuses. Here's another two words: goodbye." Sabrina said. "Now you're down to one word." Zelda said. "It would've been two words if you said them as two words." I said. "Grrr." Sabrina growled as she left. "D-Did she actually growled at us?" I asked. "Yep." Zelda and Hilda said. "See ya!" Sabrina snapped at us as she left.
"Back up to two." Zelda said. "They'll be back." Hilda assured Zelda and me. "They better be. If not, we're all in trouble." Zelda said. "So what? We'll just reverse the spell and live with the fact that we were one-hit wonders." Hilda said. "No. We're not reversing the spell!" I said.
"We can't anyways. We give up our magic when we took up music. We're musicians until the spell runs it natural course." Zelda said. "But if the band dissolves, if we break up, that may never happen." Hilda said. "And we'll be stuck..." Zelda began. "Forever." Hilda finished.
"Well, there is someone who still have his magic, since he didn't became a musician." Zelda said, looking at me. "No, I'm not reversing the spell, not even for you guys. I like being treated like a person and not a freak." I said. "Aaron..." Zelda began. "In fact. Until I say so, the spell is permanent!" I said as I recited the spell from memory, but with a forever spell I found from my father's spell book.
"There, now I'm the only one who can remove the spell. And I won't!" I said. "Aaron, please." Zelda pleaded. "No! You guys at least can live like normal people. Sure, people might give you the odd glances, but at least you two and Sabrina are still treated like normal people. Heck, you three are treated as people, period!
"Me? I'm the freak of nature, because I can't control my uncle's powers he passed down to me! I'm the one who get told I'm not a person! So, this is the one chance I have to being at least normal, and no one, not even you, are gonna take it away from me!" I yelled before using the Warp Whistle to leave.
Five weeks later, I saw a news broadcast, where people were wondering where the Flavor Babes were. Hilda have taken up political causes, mainly doing charity. Chloe continued her career for a while until she accidently blew up the drummer of a band she was with instead of her horn. Zelda was doing performances, re-enacting events with another guy. And nobody knew where Sabrina was.
Now, you'll think that since they split up, that means people stop talking to me, you're wrong. People ask me which one of them do I talk to, how bad was their split-up, etc. And the only way they contact me is via mail, since I was in a location that I'm not revealing, except it was abandoned. And no, it wasn't my house, given my own parents sent me mail. Mainly asking for an autograph from their famous son.
However, I'm guessing someone saw me leaving and entering it one day and told the Zelda, because that's who came to the place. "Go away." I said. "Aaron, can we please talk?" Zelda asked. "What is there to talk about? Oh wait, you guys want me to give up on being normal? Is that it?" I asked, my eye turning red.
"Aaron, please. Let me come in at least." Zelda pleaded. "*Sigh* Fine." I said as I opened the door for her. "Aaron, everyone's back together." Zelda said as she sat down. "Whoopie skippy doo. And what do you want me to do, rejoice over this?" I asked sarcastically.
"No. I want you to remove the forever spell. So that the spell can end naturally." Zelda said. "And what do I get out of it? Besides getting called a freak 24/7?" I asked. "Aaron, that's not true." Zelda said. "Oh really?" I asked. "Okay, I may have phrased that the wrong way." Zelda said.
"You may not know it, but it seems like everyone here hates me. You, Hilda, Sabrina, Chloe and Quigley are the only ones who don't. My parents leave me alone most of the time and when they are here, they don't give me any kinds of rules. Salem and I may not be friends, but we're not enemies. Harvey is debatable, especially with... Anyways, the main thing is everyone else in this God-forsaken town hates me because I can't control my uncle's powers!" I said, before breaking down into tears with my face on my table.
"Aaron, are you okay?" Zelda asked with concern. "No! My whole life is a mess! My parents don't pay attention to what I do! When I do something worth their attention, they let me get away with it! All their time with me is focused entirely on my training! They don't even want to help me train with my Gem powers or even acknowledge them. I never even had a shot of being normal! I-I wonder if they even loved me anymore, if they ever did in the first place. I wonder if they blame me for uncle Emerald's death." I ranted through the tears.
"Aaron, your parents love you. And I'm sure they don't hate you for Emerald's death. Sure, they might be sad, but they don't blame you for it. And I know you want to be treated normal, Sabrina told me about that. But if you keep this spell up, you're just making everyone miserable. And I don't know Emerald well, I only met him twice. But I know he wouldn't want this on anyone, would he?" Zelda asked.
"*Sniffles* No. No he wouldn't. And I'm being selfish with this whole thing, aren't I?" I asked. "Well, even if nobody else treats it as such, it's completely normal to be selfish at some points in your life. The question is, what are you gonna do now?" Zelda asked.
"I'll get rid of the spell. As for the spell you guys made, I'll let that end by itself. Even if I'll be treated as a freak, you guys need your magic again." I said. "Thank you. Most people in your case will decide to stick with want they want. But you, you choose to sacrifice everything for others. And I'm sure that if your parents knew of this, they'll be proud of you. Heck, I'm sure your uncle is proud of you right now." Zelda said.
"Heh heh. Thanks." I told her. "And while I can't promise that things will get better, your life can. And next time you're left by yourself, just call me and I'll look after you. Okay?" Zelda asked, offering her hand to shake on that. "Sure." I said, shaking her hand.
Later, we were on a balcony. Yes, I took off the forever spell, meaning the spell will end soon. "I just want to say how psyched I am that we're all together again." Sabrina said. "Me too." Chloe said. "Me three." Zelda said. "Me four." I added, holding up the iPod to record them. "So, you ready Babes, and Aaron?" Hilda asked. "Yes. Do it." I said as they started the song.
"Orange, mango, coconut and peanut butter brickle
"Bubblegum and butterum, tapioca tickle
"What's your favorite flavor?
"When you're on a sweet snack tear
"You want something to savor
"We'll make your tonsil ring
"Come on, Sabrina, sing" As they hit that verse, the magic had started to wear off.
"Cotton candy, caramel" Soon, the magic worn off everywhere in Greendale. Everyone started complaining about the music. Salem soon came outside. "Uh oh." Salem said, ducking under a tomato. However, a chicken fell on top of his head, with even the chicken confused. "Well, at least they're our gals." I said as I tapped my foot to the beat.
