Stand and Fight/Turn and Run - Marianas Trench (edits by me)
Chapter 11 - Time to be Heroes
Moments earlier at Popper and Flurry's palm tree
Popper and Flurry were sitting by their palm tree, Even though it's been all day. They haven't eaten anything yet still, but they didn't care.
"Flurry, how did you figure out I was being controlled by something?" Popper asked.
"I don't know, It just came to me, it was sort of sudden, really" Flurry replied.
"It's still not safe for you, though" Popper said looking down at the ground.
"I know, but... we can figure out a way to separate you from it and defeat it some how, can't we?" Flurry asked.
"I don't know, but until I figure that out, you should get somewhere safe" Popper replied.
At that moment Sarah, Lilo, Stitch, Candy and RB came out from the bushes.
"Flurry! you need to back away from him, now" Sarah said.
"But..." Flurry stuttered.
"I know, Flurry but we have no idea what it's capable of" Sarah stated.
"Please" Lilo whispered to herself.
Popper then began to grunt in pain. "Flurry, do what they say, please, I don't want it to hurt you" Popper struggled to speak.
"No, Popper, you can fight it" Flurry said. Flurry then remembered when she split from Flarry. "Popper remember when I split from Flarry, just concentrate on separating yourself from it" Flurry stated.
Popper collapsed to the ground an tried to do what she asked. He started getting flashbacks of everything that has happened in the past. The Love of his Ohana, and Friends including the friend he lost.
"No, Dark Popper, If you think my mind is going to be consumed by you, think again" Popper said.
"No, what are you doing" Dark Popper said in Popper's mind as he was being forced out. "Noooo!" he yelled in Popper's mind.
Popper then began to split in two, a gray version of himself started tearing off of Popper like an cell, just like what happened to Flurry and Flarry. They finally both fully separated.
"Flurry, I did it" Popper said as he hugged her.
"You did, I'm so proud of you, Popper" Flurry said.
They looked over at Dark Popper getting up off the ground, now he was furious.
"What have you done" Dark Popper said grinding his teeth. He clenched his paws so tight he could crack a coconut with ease.
"Not letting you win, that's what I've done" Popper stated as he hid Flurry behind him to protect her.
"You'll regret that, you see, Zem will rise again, it's only a matter of time" Dark Popper stated.
"What, no" Popper said.
"Yes, Popper, Zem will be back, this time, he will be the most powerful being in the universe. I just need more energy" Dark Popper stated now with a evil horrifying look on his face.
"We won't let you" Flurry said now standing beside Popper.
"No, we won't" Sarah said as they all surrounded him.
"hehehe, even in my weakest state, you guys will be no match for me" Dark Popper stated.
Dark Popper raised his paw and black chains popped out from the ground and cuffed Flurry, Sarah, Lilo and Stitch. Candy and RB jumped out of the way. Popper was then imprisoned in a purplish colored Crystal letting out a big flash of purplish light then dimmed.
"Kids, go find Bluey, stay somewhere safe" Flurry yelled.
Popper tried to pound on the Crystal to get out but it was no use.
"You guys are our only hope, you just have to believe in yourselves" Popper said. "go now, find the Power of three" he added as they ran through the bushes.
"ahhh, noooo" Dark Popper raged as he lost them.
Present time
Bluey stud there, paralyzed with fear, but he gathered the courage to ask more questions.
"So, Dad is trapped in a Crystal and the rest are chained up?" Bluey asked.
"Yes, Dad said we must find the power of three, we just need to believe in ourselves" RB said.
Bluey grabbed onto his ears and pulled as he sat down in the doorway.
"What does that even mean?" Bluey asked.
"I don't know, ok" RB replied. "He didn't really tell us where to find it" RB stated.
Candy stood in the corner of the treehouse thinking for a second.
Candy's thoughts
Popper: you just got to believe in yourselves
Herself: I wish I wasn't so depressed all the time
RB: I wish I could stop bullying
Bluey: I just wish I could be brave, like Rueben, Galley officer of the BRB 9000!
Joy, Friendship, Bravery
End of Candy's thoughts
"Of course" Candy said as she came out of her thoughts. "Guys" She called calmly.
"Bluey you can't just sit here, we have to find the power of three" RB said trying to get Bluey to stand up.
"You, will have to find it without me, my fears will only weigh you down" Bluey stated.
"Bluey! RB! LISTEN!" Candy yelled finally getting their attention. "We don't need to find the power of three" She stated.
"What? What are you talking about, you heard what he said, find the power of three" RB said.
"I heard Uncle Popper, yes, but we don't need to find the power of three because..." Candy said stopping for a minute. "We are the power of three" she finished.
"huh?" Bluey said confused.
"I'm Sad all the time, RB is Mean and you are scared" Candy said.
"Yes, but how does that make the power of three?" RB asked.
"We need to do the opposite" Candy stated.
Bluey looked back out the doorway feeling more scared then ever. Candy Walked over to Sarah and put her paw on her shoulder.
"RB, I'm going to fill my life with Joy from now on" Candy stated.
"I'm going to be more kind and friendly" RB stated.
They both looked at Bluey as he was still sitting on the floor by the doorway.
"Please, Bluey" Candy said.
"I... I can't" Bluey said in his fear voice.
"Bluey, you got to believe in yourself" RB said. "Please, I don't want to loose our Ohana" she said as a tear fell from her face.
"It'd be better... if I turn and run" Bluey stated.
"But, Bluey" Candy said.
song starts*
RB saw Candy get that look in her eyes, the look that she gets before crying. RB stepped forward making Candy look up at her. For the first time RB was doing something other then being mean.
RB: You've been holding on *she held her paw out for Bluey but he turned his back*
To what should have been
To a fantasy of a life *She brought her paw back and her ears flopped down*
But you missed the joke
That it's holding you *A tear falls from her cheek*
And the punchline falls out of spite
So stand and fight *she puts her paws near her chest like she was praying*
Stand and fight
Stand and fight
Stand and fight
Candy: When you've had enough *Candy jumps in*
we'll stay with you *walks closer to him
You're not alone *tear falls from her cheek as well*
If you try
But we can't make you want this for yourself *Bluey continues to sit in the doorway, ears down and tears in his eyes*
Now only you can decide
To stay and fight *held her paws close to her chest*
Stay and fight
Stay and fight
Stay and fight
RB: For every time that we've begun *clenched her fist*
For every time we turn and run,
For every time we don't get right,
We stand and fight *made a stance*
To each new dawn that felt like that
To all those years we don't get back
To еvery hope that we hold tight
Wе stand and fight *sang from the heart*
No in between, no wait and see
We all just need the right time
We only get to live one life *she bursts into tears* So stand and fight
Candy: This battlefield you're standing on *put her paw on RB's shoulder as she cried*
It'll never hold through the night *more tears fell from her cheek*
But it's not the fall, it's the getting up *looked at Bluey at the same time a tear fell from his face*
Of who we are that defines *Candy and RB walk over to Bluey and sit beside him*
So stand and fight
Stand and fight *puts her paw on his shoulder*
RB: Stand and fight *RB put her paw on his shoulder as well*
Stand and fight
Stand and fight
Stand and fight
transition to next song*
Bluey: At first I froze *looks at his Paws with tears in his eyes*
Now it's so close
What if its to late to try.
We're by a thread, *put his head down*
Though its unsaid
Know that I should stay but I
Could leave tonight and run *closed his eyes as tears released from his eye*
I know that I'm not fooling anyone,
But what will I become *opened his eyes again*
If all that I do is turn and run, *stood up*
turn and run. *clenched his fist and his eyes turned electric Blue*
It's right ahead, Tears that we've shed-
*RB and Candy whipped the tears from their eyes as he walked by them*
-On stones we lay on roads that lead us to the end *Bluey helped them stand up*
But I can't pretend that all along I don't know,
We could leave tonight and run *RB and Candy's eyes also turned Electric blue as well*
I know that I'm not fooling anyone *looked at them with the look of a true hero*
But what will I become
If all that I do is... *they all held each other's Paws*
Bluey, RB and Candy: turn and run *electricity flowed through all of them*
inside the Crystal*
Popper: Walk onto the edge *looking through the Crystal at everyone*
Welcome to the edge
Feel it in my bones *looking at Flurry in chains*
These are parts unknown *ears are down as he looks at Stitch, Sarah and Lilo in chains as well*
Welcome to the edge *Looked at the Dark version of himself in anger*
Welcome to the, welcome
outside the Crystal*
Flurry sees a constant beam of Lightning in the distance*
Flurry: We're on the edge of where the world drops
Stitch: We're on the edge of where the world drops *also sees it*
Sarah: How do we live through this *Looking at her Brother locked in the Crystal*
Lilo: How do we live through this fire *looked over at Stitch with tears in her eyes*
Flurry: We're on the edge of where the world drops off *looked at her boojiboo Popper in the Crystal*
Back in the Crystal*
Popper: Just don't turn and run-
*put his paw on the wall of the Crystal as he watched the lightning beam*
-Just don't turn and run *turned his head away with his ears still down as the song ends*
