Come What May Part 6
By aragorn_8
A couple weeks passed and it was now the last day of school. The day they get their report cards. At Lunch, Robyn, Jacob (still with the choke chain. Robyn put it on everyday because she thought it was funny), and Rick were walking around the halls. Soon, Justin ran up to them.
“Guys, big emergency!”
“What is it?” Jacob asked. Justin looked at the string with a puzzled look. “Don’t ask.”
“Anyway,” Justin said. “MQP is raging war on us!”
“What!?” Rick shouted.
“Yeah, I was just over there and one of the Tappers, who used to go there, told me to get people from this school and to meet them on their field.”
“Crap. What are we going to do?” Jacob asked.
“Well my cousin is one of the most well known people in the smoking area. I’ve already talked to her and she said that she can get most of the smoking area people to help us. I also just talked to Weasel and he’ll also be helping us.”
“So it’s War.” Robyn said. “We’re going to War.”
“No.” Jacob said, turning to face her. “No we. It’s too dangerous. I’m going, you’re not. You’re staying.”
“Is it because I’m a girl?” Robyn asked. Before Jacob could speak, she continued, “Because if it is, tuff. I’m going and I don’t want to hear another word.” Jacob was about to say something, but Robyn put her hand on the rope. “Not another word!” she repeated.
“This war could also make a great story.” Jacob added.
*Start of ONCE AND FOR ALL*
During this song, the group is walking down the halls, slowly getting Weasel, Justin’s cousin, Lisa, and the smoking area people.
JUSTIN
This is the story you wanted to write,
Well, today is the day that you can.
JACOB
Just get this done and by afternoon’s late light
We can finish the fight We began.
RICK:
This time we're in it to stay.
ROBYN:
Think about seizing the day.
JACOB:
Think of that Plane
As she rolls into old Alberta,
Tell 'em I'm on my way!
SMOKING AREA KIDS:
See MQP snug in their school.
They don't care if we're dead or alive.
Head’s on their desks
While we’re fighting to pass!
MQP, if you're still countin' sheep
Wake up and read 'em and weep!
You got your kids
With their sticks and their slugs
Yeah, but we got a promise to keep.
Once and for all
JUSTIN
Something tells me the tide'll be turnin'
Once and for all!
JACOB
There's a fire inside meThat won't stop burnin'
Now that the choices are clear,
Now that tomorrow is here,
Watch how the mighty will fall
For once and for all
EVERYONE:
This is for kids shinin' shoes in the street
With no shoes on their feet every day.
This is for guys sweatin' blood in the shops
While the bosses and cops look away.
This is to even the score.
This ain't just school no more.
This ain't just kids with some pie in the sky
This is do it or die
This is war!
Once and for all
We'll be there to defend one another!
Once and for all
Every kid is our friend,
Every friend a brother.
Five thousand fists in the sky!
Five thousand reasons to try!
We're goin' over the wall!
Better to die than to crawl!
Either we stand or we fall!
For once
Once and for all
Once and for all!
By now, they had they’re little army. They had all reached the street and started running across it with cars coming. Robyn was in a dress, so she couldn’t run very far, but Jacob was trying to run, but due to the choke chain, he kept choking and having to wait for Robyn, almost getting hit by a couple cars. Robyn was laughing.
On the other side of the street, not that far away, they saw the army that MQP had made and was waiting for them. The small army from MacDonald Drive started singing another song, this one louder.
*Start of WE WILL ROCK YOU*
LISA
Buddy you’re a boy
Make a big noise playing in the streetGonna be a big man someday
You got blood in your face, big disgrace
Kicking your can all over the place
Singing...
EVERYONE

We will, We will rock you!
LISA
Keep the beat up, why, I’m gonna turn your heat up

JUSTIN
We causing utter devastation
When we stepping to the place
And better believe that you can see
We’re gonna rock and never stop.
And here we go again

We’ll bring it on again -- shout it out...
EVERYONE

We will, we will rock you!
We will, we will rock you!
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
WEASEL

You got mud on your face, big disgrace
Somebody better put a bag over your face,
Singing...
EVERYONE
We will, we will rock you!
We will, we will rock you!
We will, we will rock you!
They reached MQP and there were about the same amount of people there as well, including the Tappers.
“Fight!” one of the MQP kids shouted.
Everyone charged at each other and before anyone knew it, Lisa and the people from the smoking area whipped out water balloons and started throwing them, smashing them on the MQP kids, getting them soaking wet, some even getting hurt.
Then one kid noticed that only a couple had water in it. Others had mustard, paint, other harmful and staining things.
One MQP kid got bleach in his eyes from a balloon and he covered his eyes and stumbled around, blindly. “My eyes, my eyes!”
MQP started throwing rocks, braking most of the balloons before they even reach them. Then some of the rocks started hitting the Smoking area kids.
Jacob ran over to one of the Tappers, who had a rock and was about to throw it at Rick. “I have a score to settle with you.” Jacob whispered as he ran over. He tapped the Tapper on the shoulder and when he turned around, Jacob threw a punch, knocking the Tapper out. Once the tapper fell, Jacob stood above him and glared down at him. “Woof.”
Robyn was in a cat fight with another girl and she was on the ground, the other girl on top of her, about to punch her. Then all of a sudden, the girl was kicked off of her and she went flying into the pond. Lisa reached down a hand to help Robyn back up and they both started fighting together.
The rest of the fight was pretty much the same. It turned into a giant fist fight, with everyone throwing punches, kicks, throwing, tripping, spitting, head butting. Sometimes MQP kids would get bet up, other times it was MacDonald Drive kids.
After about an hour and a half of fighting, the remaining concise MQP kids, including one of the Tappers, turned and ran inside their school.
A minute later, one of the windows opened and a couple of text books were thrown down and missed everyone by a mile.
“Must be that Tapper throwing them.” Jacob said to Rick, who smiled. Lisa reared back and threw a balloon up and it went into the classroom. With was shouts and the window slammed shut.
“What was in that?” Robyn asked.
“Oh not much. Just crushed up rotten eggs.” a giant smile crossed her face. Everyone who was concise let out a victory cry and started cheering and singing.
*start of WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS*
LISA
I've paid my dues,
Time after time.
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime.
And bad mistakes I've made a few.
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face,
But I've come through.
EVERYONE
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting, till the end.
We are the champions
We are the champions.
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions...of the world.
WEASEL
I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls.
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it.
I thank you all.
JACOB
But it's been no bed of roses.
No pleasure cruise.
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race -
And I ain't gonna lose.
EVERYONE
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting, till the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers,
'Cause we are the champions...of the world.
The singing faded as they got further and further away, heading back to their school.
Left back in the felid, Jacob and Robyn stood looking around.
“Robyn?” Jacob asked. She turned to him.
“Yeah?”
Jacob took Robyn by the waist and leaned in and kissed her. The kiss lasted for several minutes and when they were done, Robyn looked up into Jacob’s eyes, smiled, and whispered. “Now that was dramatic!”
“Come on, let’s go get our report cards.” as they were walking, Jacob felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and quickly covered it with his hand, and after a minute, it was gone.
About half an hour later, the halls in the school were filled with kids emptying out their lockers, and leaving.
*Start of SCHOOL’S OUT FOR SUMMER*
As this song goes on, different kids do different things. Some rush outside, others egg the office, others clean out their lockers, others walk in groups.
PRINCIPAL
Well, we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin' all that noise
Cause they found new toys
The Principal is hiding under his desk as eggs fly through the door.
STUDENT WHO IS EGGING OFFICE
Well, we can't salute ya
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
That's a drag
ALL STUDENTS
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
Some students start throwing ripped up peices of paper around the halls as they run down them and out the doors.
STUDENT
No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
ANOTHER STUDENT
Well, we got no class
And we got no principals
And we got no innocence
I can't even think of a word that rhymes
ALL STUDENTS
School's out for summer
School's out forever
My school's been blown to pieces
No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
School’s Out for summer
School’s Out till fall
We might not come back at all
School's out forever
Suddenly, Mr. Park appears and starts singing as well.
MR. PARK
School's out for summer
School's out with fever
EVERYONE
School's out completely!
Rick, Justin, Robyn, and Jacob were waiting at the entrance for Robyn and Rick’s bus to come. Suddenly, they saw it starting to come.
“Hey Jacob,” Robyn said. “You’re coming to my party in a couple days, right?”
“Of coarse.” Robyn’s birthday was ina couple days and the entire party was being held in a Rec Centre and was going to be a dance. Now wasn’t the team for Jacob to tell her that he couldn’t dance.
“Good. You still like to write stories, right?”
“Yeah.” Jacob answered.
“Good. Then for my birthday, you can write me a song!” the bus pulled up and kids started to get on. Robyn kissed Jacob, waved buy, and got on as well.
“But...but...” Jacob whispered. “I can’t write songs.”
Justin patted Jacob on the back as they started to walk away. “You’ll think of something.”
The night of the party, dance music was on and a strobe light was going off. Jacob, Rick, and Justin sat at a table, neither one knowing how to dance. Jacob watched Robyn as she danced with her friends.
Soon, people had gathered round, trying to talk Jacob into dancing with Robyn, and after a few minutes, he admitted that he couldn’t dance.
Robyn’s mother and father led Jacob out onto the back balcony. “This is how you slow dance.” Robyn’s mother said. She took Jacob’s hands and started slow dancing with him and Robyn’s father whistled a tune.
“See.” Robyn’s mother said. “It’s not that hard. Just move you’re feet like this. One two three, one two three, got it?”
“I think so.” Jacob said slowly.
“Good.” They led him back inside and he sat down.
Then, once the party music ended, the lead musician said, “I have a request that everyone clears the dance floor.” there were some moans. “And make room for the birthday girl and her boyfriend.”
“Who requested that?” Jacob demanded at his table. He turned to his friends. “Who?” then he saw they were smiling. “Great.”
He was dragged out to the dance floor and felt his heart sink. He had never actually danced before. What if he was no good? What if everyone laughed at him.
Robyn took Jacob’s hands and leaned her head on his shoulder as the music started. Slow music. “Just dance like my mom taught you and you’ll do fine.” Robyn whispered. They started slow dancing around.
*Start I’LL NEVER BRAKE YOUR HEART*
As they dance to the music, Jacob looked out at all the watchful faces, and the smiling and encouraging faces of his friends. Then he saw Robyn’s mom crying tears of joy.
SONG:
Girl, I know you're hurting.
Right now you feel like You could never love again.
Now all I ask is for a chance To prove that I love you.
From the first day that I saw your smiling face
Honey, I knew that we would be together forever
Ooh and I asked you out, you said no But I found out
Darling, that you'd been hurt
You felt that you'd never love again
I deserve a try, honey, just once
Give me a chance and I'll prove this all wrong
You walked in you were so quick to judge
But honey, he's nothing like me
I'll never break your heart
I'll never make you cry
I'd rather die, ten live without you
I'll give you all of me
Honey that's no lie
I'll never break your heart
I'll never make you cry
I'd rather die, ten live without you
I'll give you all of me Honey that's no lie
As time goes by you will get to know me
A little more better
Girl that's the way love goes baby, baby
I know you are afraid to let
Your feelings show (feelings show)
And I understand
But girl it's time to let go
Girl it's time to let go(girl it's time to let go because)
I deserve a try honey, just once
Give me chance and I'll prove this all wrong
You walked in you were so quick to judge
But honey he's nothing like me Darling, why can't you see
I'll never break your heart
No way (no way)no how
I'll make you cry
Oh, need me
Honey no way I'll do you right(no how)
I say no how
I would never do that to you girl
Ooh, just give me a chance
To prove you how much I love you
I would give you the world
If you're my girl...
The song ended and Robyn and Jacob kissed and everyone cheered as they crowded the dance floor. Jacob went and sat back down with his friends and they started talking. After a couple songs, My Heart Will Go On started playing.
*Start MY HEART WILL GO ON*
MUSIC
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on
Jacob stood up and walked over to Robyn’s seat, where she was sitting with Megan and another couple of her friends and younger brother, Joey. Jacob looked down at her.
“Care to dance?” he asked.
“I’d love to.” Jacob and Robyn went back out to the dance floor and slow danced through the song. As they did, Jacob saw pretty much the same reactions and faces as he did the last time and everyone else slowly cleared the dance floor, then towards the end, they started coming back on, and slow dancing as well.
Megan danced with Joey.
MUSIC
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
As the song ended, a tear came to Jacob’s eye because he knew that he would be moving soon, and all this would be but a memory in his mind. He didn’t want it to end. He didn’t want to move.
“Those two songs we danced to,” Robyn whispered to him. “Are our songs.”
Once that song ended, the lead musician said, “Now that’s all the music I have for you tonight, but I’ve been told that the birthday girl’s boyfriend has a song for her. Let’s hear it for Jacob LaChance!”
There were cheers as Jacob was pushed up on stage, Robyn cheering the loudest. He passed a musical sheet to the band, who quickly found the right key and started playing.
*Start of YOUR SONG*
During the song, Jacob starts off up on stage, but slowly walks down the steps and everyone starts making a path for him as he walks towards Robyn.
JACOB
My gift is my song and this one’s for you
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It maybe quite simple but now that it's done
Hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words, how wonderful life is
Now you’’re in the world
I sat on the roof and I kicked off the moss
Well some of these verses well they, they got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on.
So excuse my forgetting, but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is - what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
BAND
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It maybe quite simple but now that it's done
JACOB
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simply but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world.
He stopped right in front of Robyn, who was smiling and blushing. “Happy Birthday Robyn. I love you.” he then held her and they kissed as everyone cheered.
The next day, Jacob is at home watching T.V., when suddenly, he screams out in pain and clutches his stomach.
His parents run in and his Mom goes over to him. She turns back to Jacob’s dad. “We have to bring him to the hospital!”
Robyn was at her house, on the computer, when her phone rang. It was Rick. “Oh hey! What’s up?”
“I’m afraid I have some bad news. It’s about Jacob.” His voice sounded really sad.
