"Oh, No, I'm Gonna Die Today..."

...to quote Ethan Daniels.
Dreamer FINALLY finished Chapter 3 of A Text to Save the World. Here it is, in its entirety:

Chapter 3

“They Have the Boy!”

Now, as I found out later, a few feet away from where I was standing, a teenager was having a major crisis.

“Blast! Does Simile know yet?” The raven-haired eighteen-year-old lifted a two-way radio to his mouth. “Hello? Yes, this is Xaq. They have the boy!” Xaq told the person on the other line.

“Evan Peterson’s son?”

“Uh-huh.”

“Oh, Xaq, that is perfectly okay. Just ask the boy a few questions and report back to me. Just make sure you ask the boy those questions,” A silk-like voice said from the other end of the two way radio.

 “But---!”

“It will be all right Xaq, goodbye,” said Simile.

            “Yes, Simile. ‘Bye.” Xaq shoved the two way radio back into his pocket.

That's it. Vice President Raistlin is going to write Chapter 4. He has 2 weeks, pretty much. 

Also, Horse Love and Tiger are having a BIRTHDAY on Wednesday!!! Happy birthday, you two! (Or early birthday, anyway.)

We had a musical practice on Saturday, and it worked quite well. A week from Saturday, we'll have the next one. And here are the promised lyrics to Something More and Once Upon a Time. 

SOMETHING MORE

Silver Lining: Take a look at a story

One that you’ve heard before

What makes you love it?

It’s just that it is yours

And nobody’s but yours.

Take a look at the world,

And there’s a thousand tales.

There is always a song,

Always something more to sing…

All: I wonder if I’m

Thinking too hard

I wonder if maybe my story’s right there.

CHORUS

All: And it’s got

Kingdoms and castles and dungeons and princesses too!

Grumpy kings and a dragon or two

And it’s got

Everything from before and everything more,

It’s what I want it to be,

It’s got something more.

Silver Lining: It’ll have a wizard,

Maybe then a prince

How about a hero?

All: Maybe he’ll fall in love

And she won’t love him back

Silver Lining: I hope it’s what you want.

‘Cause it’s what I’ve got,

All: And it’s all I’ve got to give…

CHORUS

All: And it’s got

Kingdoms and castles and dungeons and princesses too!

Grumpy kings and a dragon or two

And it’s got

Everything from before and everything more,

It’s what I want it to be,

It’s got something more.

It’s got something more

Yeah…

BRIDGE

Everything

And nothing

It’s what I want it, what I want it to be

CHORUS

And it’s got

Kingdoms and castles and dungeons and princesses too!

Grumpy kings and a dragon or two

And it’s got

Everything from before and everything more,

It’s what I want it to be,

It’s got something more.

And it’s got

Kingdoms and castles and dungeons and princesses too!

Grumpy kings and a dragon or two

And it’s got

Everything from before and everything more,

It’s what I want it to be,

It’s got something more.

It’s got something more

And it’s so old,

And it’s so new,

Silver Lining: And it’s got more

All: Than you can imagine,

More than you can imagine

It’s got life and light and love,

And something more

And now, the lyrics for Once Upon a Time:

ONCE UPON A TIME

Silver Lining: Once in a land far, far away

The sun rises from day to day

But yet, somehow, the light doesn’t seem to come

(VILLAGERS 1 AND 2 ARE TALKING CONFIDENTIALLY)

Villager 1: Something is wrong, no one knows what,

Villager 2: And no one cares, nobody but,

Villager 1: One person who is looking for the light

All: We can’t wait anymore

We’re ready to see

Little Girl: Some bit of light before me!

CHORUS

All: Once upon a time

No reason or rhyme

Were across the land

On the sea and sand

Once upon a time

The darkness beat the light

And destroyed our sight

Once upon a time

Peter: Although right now, the world seems dark

I know that I will find a spark

To light up this blackening world again

Things just can’t be all that bad

Though thick and thin, and steep and sad,

There just has to be more to life than this

I can’t wait anymore

I’m ready to see

Some bit of light before me!

CHORUS

All: Once upon a time

No reason or rhyme

Were across the land

On the sea and sand

Once upon a time

The darkness beat the light

And destroyed our sight

Once upon a time

Peter: And when the waves begin to rise

And all my hope fails

Somehow, somewhere, in the night,

Someone will be there

All: Be there

CHORUS

All: Once upon a time

No reason or rhyme

Were across the land

On the sea and sand

Once upon a time

The darkness beat the light

And destroyed our sight

Once upon a time

Once upon a time

No reason or rhyme

Were across the land

On the sea and sand

Once upon a time

The darkness beat the light

And destroyed our sight

Once upon a time

The darkness beat the light

Once upon a time

Peter: We will regain our sight!

All: Once upon a time

There. Actually, in the final musical, we will have ONE original song, called "You Ain't Seen Anything Yet". 

More fun to come tomorrow. (Possibly...)

P.S. Ah, yes, Tiger! I would like you to mention something in my bio about my constant advertisement of AIO and The Ceiling Fan. I wrote Dreamer's bio (I'm not done yet).
