Danny watched as White performed on stage. The Isle of Sirens was where he shined the most. One of the few places that the two felt love.
As for the song choice. As usual, White had gone with country. Amity Park is far from the south, but you could easily mistake White for someone from the south for two reasons. One, his amazing country singing. Two, his gumbo. Just thinking about it made Danny's mouth water.
"Street lights along the highway
Throwing shadows in the dark
And the memories keep on turning
To the rhythm of a broken heart."
"You only need a roof when it's raining
You only need a fire when it's cold
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Is the only thing that you have left to hold."
"Sun comes up and goes back down
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Say the word and I'll be there for you
Baby, I will be your parachute
Parachute."
White walked around the stage, the other sirens cheering for him. He was most free when he was on stage. Even despite his talent, his voice went unnoticed at their so-called home.
"There's a song that I remember
I never learned to play
And a lifetime of forgotten words
I never got to say."
"You only need a roof when it's raining
You only need a fire when it's cold
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Is the only thing that you have left to hold."
"Sun comes up and goes back down
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Say the word and I'll be there for you
Baby, I will be your parachute
Parachute."
"If you think you're going down
Just know I will be around."
Danny felt the same way he did. There was always that skill that they use to put on their illusion. A smile. Pain hidden behind a smile.
"You only need a roof when it's raining
You only need a fire when it's cold
You only need a drink when the whiskey
Is the only thing that you have left to HOLD
Sun comes up and goes back down
And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground
Say the word and I'll be there for you
Baby, I will be your
Baby, I will be your parachute
Parachute."
The sirens all burst into applause. A country fair with flare, as White likes to call it. He went over to his brother. Danny gave him a big bear hug.
"You're amazing, you know," he complimented.
"I'm a siren," White chuckled. "If I didn't sing, I'd have to throw myself in the dungeon."
"Incredible as ever, Gold Siren," Krinos congratulated.
Their friend, Krinos, had come up. It was rare for him to be on the Isle of Sirens, but he never missed it when White performed.
"Thanks for coming, Krinos," White said, hugging him. "You're one of the few that have stayed with us. In terms of humans, anyway."
"One, I'm barely human. And two, what they do is wrong," Krinos says. "I just wish I could do more. But nature is my job. And speaking of that, I need to go destroy someone trying to bulldoze the Amazon. Again."
"They will never learn," Danny said.
"No kidding. The work of the lord of nature is never done," Krinos complained, vanishing in a floral swirl (mini flower petal twister).
