Poppy was handed a mic.

Something she hasn't held in a long time. The bar cheers as they see her, Her dad looks at her expectantly as he leans against the bar, waiting for her to sing. She sees Slider nudge her old man before raising his beer again. She shakes her head in astonishment before dramatically leaning on the piano.  

Looking around, she noticed everyone was waiting in anticipation for her to sing. She lets out a small laugh before thinking of a song to sing. She briefly glances over to the records on the wall, thinking of a song before looking out the window. 

'Perfect,' she thought; she now had the perfect song to sing. Winking at Amelia, she heads to the jukebox and keys in the song. She looks back at the crowd and smiles, taking a deep breath, she opens her mouth and sings.


I was cheated by you 

and I think you know when 


The crowd goes wild as they hear a familiar '80s lyric. Slowly, she moves away from the jukebox and back to the middle of the stage.


So I made up my mind

It must come to an end


Her dad's students walk into the bar. Her eyes noticed Rooster as she saw him take off his shades in surprise. 


Look at me now, will I ever learn?

I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control

There's a fire within my soul


She takes a deep breath before looking back to the crowd. Nerves rack her brain; she's already committed to the performance, she closes her eyes as she remembers her dad's words.

'Don't think, Just do.' 

She opens her eyes and smiles wide before turning towards the crowd. 


Just one look and I can hear a bell ring

One more look and I forget everything, w–o–o–o–o–h


"The round worth it?" Maverick said in shock as he watched his daughter singing her head off on stage. 

"I haven't heard her voice in over four years, and she still got it." Penny smiles in disbelief as she watches the young girl prance across the mini-stage. 

"So worth the money." Slider states before cheering.


Mamma mia, here I go again

My my, how can I resist you?

Mamma mia, does it show again?

My my, just how much I've missed you


"She sings," Pheonix says in disbelief as she watches their head engineer prance around the stage, singing a classic song.
