I rushed to the Amphitheater carrying my flute which turned turned into a sword if I pushed the tiny button on the bottom of it, I finally found a guitar just sitting there. I played guitar in Year 3 so I took it and sat on the stool on the stage, Nobody was therein the audience so I just started to strum on it and sing:

"You were in college working part time waitin’ tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with a fear of fallin’
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts

I say "Can you believe it?
As we’re lying on the couch?"
The moment I can see it.
Yes, yes, I can see it now.

Do you remember, we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time.
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter.
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Flash forward and we’re taking on the world together,
And there’s a drawer of my things at your place.
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded,
You say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes.

But we got bills to pay,
We got nothing figured out,
When it was hard to take,
Yes, yes, this is what I thought about.

Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Oh, oh, oh

And I remember that fight
Two-thirty AM
As everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the "Goodbye"
‘cause that’s all I’ve ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said, "I’ll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it’s like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter
She is the best thing that’s ever been mine."

Hold on, make it last
Hold on, never turn back

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
(Hold on) Do you believe it?
(Hold on) Gonna make it now.
(Hold on) I can see it,
(Yes, yes) I can see it now."

Just then I heard clapping and I feel out of the stool in fear.

Wang Xiao Yan stood slowly from her seat, clapping lightly. She managed to send the girl a small smile through her sleepy exterior, ans stretched her arms high above her head. Her back cracked a few times, and she led her arms drop back down to her sides.

The mewl from the top of her head sent her chocolate brown eyes up to focus on her black kitten, Jei, and she reached up once again with her left hand and scratched his ear.

Manoeuvring placidly through the stands, the Chinese girl hopped down the steps expertly, still half-asleep. Vaulting up to sit on the edge of the stage, she looked at the younger girl through her feathery black bangs and said quietly, "You...have a...beautiful voice...for someone so young. Do you...know...the song named...'If I Die Young'...by The Band Perry...? On that," she nodded towards the guitar, "...I mean." Her words came gradually, as if she was having a hard time saying them. Which she kind of was. She was, after all, constantly drowsy due to her father. "You know..." She started to sing.

"If I die young, bury me in satin
lay me down on a bed of roses
sink me in the river at dawn
send me away with the words of a love song..."

DANIELLE~ROSE~MAPLE
Apollo
"I can heal everything except a broken heart."
Dani heard the pleasant sound of singing coming from somewhere and had to see. She walked until finding the vocalist, who she knew. It was her little half-sister, Star. Dani smiled and clapped as Star finished her song. Dani then realized that she wasn't alone, another girl was there as well." Good job Star!" she commented. Dani loved her siblings, which included Star.
