Krystal numbly sat in the auditorium of the Ned HQ. It was the day of Chad's funeral, and Gigi and Krystal were seriously depressed.
People were socializing, and relating memories of Chad.
Snow leap: "There was the one time in class where he attacked Cleocatra, my evil mother.......
*flashback*
Wind and Snowleap, and Gigi teleported to my first class. They found three empty seats next to each other in the front row, and unfroze everything. The teacher- also a leopard- jumped three feet in the air before throwing Snowleap a dirty look."Snowleap."
"Yeah mom?"
"Why have you teleported here with a dog? Especially that one."
"Uh.... you know what they say, keep your friends close..."
"Hmmm. I see."
She turned and wrote on a black board, "Mrs. Cleocatra, Confidence 101."
"Class, when first meeting someone, first impressions are important." She walked calmly and confidently across the room. Defenses lowered as if she was the toughest person and feared nothing.
"Now, if you saw me prancing about like this, and this was the first time you had seen me, what would you think about me?"
"I'd think you were cocky and overdue for a fight!" The Labrador who had spoken leaped at her.
Chad leaped in and out of striking distance with the speed of a snake, and before Cleocatra could really react, she had a torn ear and a bloody nose.
After the fight, Chad(the Labrador) gathered his groupies and left the classroom without having been told. He had minor scratched and a smirk on his face.
Cleocatra picked up a phone, evidently a hotline to Mrs. Lawrence, and yelled into it, "MS.LAWRENCE I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOUR SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
*End Flashback*
Kate: "he told me about it at the dance where I met Gigi."
*flashback*
so while the squad leaders updated each other on mission developments, the other members would brag about past missions."yeah? i attacked the bosses close partner, Cleocatra, and got away with barely a scratch!" said chad.
"i doubt-" began another dog, a female black lab.
"i was there," said Gigi, who had just walked up.
"you must be Gigi. I'm Kate, Chad's sister."
"Chad never mentioned he had a sister."
"we were separated at birth. Bro doesn't remember, but I've got photographic memory."
"it may be true. but until i see the results of our DNA test, I'm not counting my chickens." said chad.
"i can sense stuff chad. There's definitely some thing connecting you two."
"not as much as whats connecting you and me. may i have this dance?"
"you may."
they danced. and for the second time ever, chad kissed gigi.
*end flashback*
Sweet arts: he was one of the best we had."
Gigi:"..............."
Gigi was deep in thought. Everyone I fall in love with, dies. And everyone I get close to gets hurt.... Even Krystal got hurt.
Krystal: *still sobbing*
Gigi: "let's start the ceremony everyone."
Gigi walked onto the stage.
Gigi: "Thank you all for coming. We are here to honor a loyal comrade, father, and mate. Chad Lawrence died, struck down by the enemy. He will be well remembered by us all. And now we must say goodbye to him. Krystal will now lead us in a song."
Krystal walked up on stage as Gigi walked off.
Krystal: "As you know, Chad was my father. He was the best father I could have asked for and I want to honor him by singing..... "If I Die Young" by the Band Perry."
Krystal begins singing in a beautiful voice, and soon enough all the needs start to sing along:If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in a river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love songUh oh, uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh,
And life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her babyThe sharp knife of a short life, oh well
I've had just enough timeIf 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 songThe sharp knife of a short life, oh well
I've had just enough timeAnd I'll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger,
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holdin' my hand,
There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever,
Who would have thought forever could be severed by......the sharp knife of a short life, oh well?
I've had just enough timeSo put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is doneA penny for my thoughts, oh, no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'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 songUh oh (uh, oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh, oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, ohThe sharp knife of a short life, oh well
I've had just enough timeSo put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls.
And then they brought out Chad's ashes, and allowed Gigi and her children to get a small scoop put inside special lockets to wear around their necks. Then they took the remainder of the ashes, and barrier them in the field, where he had once sat on a blanket enjoying a picnic with his true love.
And this is one of the saddest things I've ever written. But don't worry, it will get better in the next book with Gigi in it. It won't be posted for a awhile, but I will work on it. Just a side note. The next book I think I will seriously work hard to finish is Songlight. Anyway..... Let's just say that Gigi finds love eventually. ;-)
May the force be with you-
