Sing(My Version)

Chapter Seventeen:

*Hey guys I'm back with another chapter of my version of Sing! YAY!!! As you all notice(if you're in the Sing fandom) I put in three mini-movies that were on the Sing disc and threaded them into this story. So, this is published on September 23, 2021. If you guys like this chapter, don't be afraid to vote and comment. That will be greatly appreciated. The songs used are called "Immortals" by Fall-out Boy and "Burn" by Phillipa Soo! Enjoy! Heads up, the next chapter will be more intense and emotional. Alright, bye!!!*

Eddie was staring up at the ceiling, watching the ceiling fan spin around and around in endless circles to keep the poolhouse cool from the warm air outside. Eddie sighed as he knew that he's not going to be needed for a week until the next week. What was he going to do in the next week? Eddie glanced over to see the blue box of headphones that he saw in the commercial...that his mother bought without a second thought.

Eddie's mother wanted him to bring her the graduation certificate...just to get him to be fit. However, Eddie could only just stare at it. He bit his lips ragged and sighed heavily.

"Do it, it'll be good for you!"

His mother's voice rang through his head as he exhaled deeply. Eddie opened the box and took out the pair of blue headphones. It had a smooth curve to it that he extended it to fit it around his head. Eddie turned it on and put it over his ears.

"This is so stupid," Eddie muttered to himself.

"This is so stupid."

Eddie jumped at the headphones speaking, repeating what he just said a minute ago.

"That's what you might think but now is not the time to think!!!" A familiar voice of Gary "The Winner" Wishman announced into Eddie's ears.

Eddie tilted his head, having some second thoughts.

"Now is the time to go beyond your limitations! I know that this is a slow process and it'll take more than a week to get through it! But I promise you that all of this will be well worth it! The graduation certificate will be your reward for the week you chose to listen to me! So, let's get started! First things first...we need to clean your exterior before we could clean your interior."

The song began as Eddie was given the first step to clean his poolhouse since it's a huge mess compared to most nice places. Throughout the first verse, there's a daytime lapse as Eddie was cleaning up the place---with a few distractions such as napping, gaming, and eating the whole bowl of chips before they go stale.

"They say we are what we are.

But we don't have to be!

I'm bad behavior but I do it in the best way!

I'll be the watcher of the eternal flame!

I'll be the guard dog of all your fevered dreams!"

"Next step, remove all distractions," Gary said through Eddie's headphones as Eddie sadly put his game console in the cabinet.

"Goodbye, little buddy," Eddie replied sadly as he closed the cabinet door.

"Oooh--ooo-oooo--oooo--oooh."

Meanwhile, Buster opened the cabinet door to search for something in the theater. His smile went wide as he found wax to placed the posters up with. Mizuki had the posters printed as they made their way towards Les Calamars with the song playing in the background.
