It's been a while...I know.BUT I write finals and I'm almost done(five more subjects to go)so I'll be done on the 13th.No,don't be happy,after that I'm going to have English and German on daily basis so yes my schedule is really hard AND I have seven more stories to write!However,I promise you it will all be worthing when we're done :-)
Until next time,listen to Glee,read some Maze Runner,*don't*watch Aos,see some youtube(Ryan Higa is awesome,Manos is okay and 2J is life*also the most subscribed greek youtuber*)and listen Panic!at the disco because their music is perfection.
P.s I got a new phone and I'm still not used in using it so there might be some spelling mistakes.(yes I write my stories on my phone because the computer is way too slow)
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
15:15,choir room
"Make a wish"Brittany breathed.Both Quinn and Santana raised their eyebrows at the blonde woman.She returned the look of confusion written on their eyes and shrugged her shoulders.
"It's 15:15,so you got to make a wish."she explained as if it was obvious.Quinn frowned and looked at Brittany with a strict look"Brit,we have no time to waste on magic"
"Easy there"Santana warned her.Brittany was sensitive at these things and the last thing Santana wanted-and needed-was breaking her little heart.
"Don't get on the defensive mode"Quinn chuckled while Santana crossed her arms and raised her head.
"I wouldn't have to if you didn't attack Brittany just because you're having a bad day"
"Try a bad year"Quinn snapped"and since when do you care?Rumour has it,you released your Snix rage on her"
"That's different"
"Girls"Brittany whispered struggling to get their attention.The two women ignored her and continued their arguement.
"Yeah because you released your rage on the source of it"
"You know I didn't mean to"
"Please stop"Brittany begged.The blonde didn't like fighting and yelling,she was a peaceful soul and listening to intense situations made her anxious.Quinn and Santana turned to face her as their hearts raced.
"What happened between Brittany and I is not your concern"
"That's not what you said on court"she laughed and began pacing around"In fact,I remember you specifically saying that I shouls pick a side.And I did"
"You obviously chose wrong"Brittany blurted out.Santana glared at her ex-wife and took a step closer to her"We are not having this conversation again"
"I'm just speaking the truth.It's so funny how Quinn took your side but I mean,she too h1ad cheated so she should know"
"How dare you say that?!"Santana yelled at Brittany.She hated that reasoning of hers,she hadn't cheat and Brittany shouldn't blame her for that.
"I'm with Santana on this"Quinn replied"She kissed Sebastian one time when she was drunk and you're acting like they were fucking behind your back"
"Might as well have"
"You're being delusional again"Santana laughed at her"You said it yourself,kissing isn't cheating.Especially when I'm drunk!"
"Whatever works for you"Brittany replied bitterly while throwing her arms in defense.Quinn sighed and laid back at one of the chair's.
"I don't think I can do this"
"Neither can I,you two are a pain in the butt"
"I don't mean that"Quinn explained with a sad smile"We are three very very broken people and being together it just break us more"
"I have nothing broken"Brittany whispered.Quinn and Santana gave her a soft weak smile.
"Look what breaks,can be fixed"
"But it never is the same,is it?Look at us!We used to be best friends and now we keep fighting"Quinn stated.The two other women nodded slightly and took a seat next to her.
Brittany and Santana:Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what you've done
Cause baby now we got bad blood
Hey
Santana rose from her seat and stood above them.She wrinkled her nose while crossing her arms.Her expression turned into a serious and agressive one towards both of them.
Santana:I remember when we broke up
The first time
Saying this is I've had enough
Cause like we hadn't seen each other in a month
When you said you needed space
What?
Quinn went on the defensive mode and stood up before Brittany could react.She walked closer to Santana with her old queen bee style.
Quinn:Did you have to hit me
Where I'm weak baby
I couldn't breathe
Rub it in so deep
Salt i n the wound
Like you were laughing right at me
The two girls exchanged a killer look ready to tear each other apart-not in that way-before Brittany walked between them.
Brittany:Ooh We call it off again last night
But ooh
But this time I'm telling you I'm telling you
All:Cause baby now we got bad blood
You know it used to be mad love
So take a look what you've done
Cause baby now we got bad blood,hey!
The trio paced round and round in a way similar to most duels back in the days.
Brittany:You go talk t o your friends talk
To my friends talk to me b ut we are never ever ever ever
(Quinn and Santana: Cause baby now we got bad blood)
Getting back together
Like ever
Santana:I'm really gonna miss you picking fights
And me falling for it and screaming
That I'm right and you hide away and find your peace of mind
With some indie record that's much cooler than mine
Quinn climbed the black piano at the corner and faaced her two friends from above.She formed a 'T' with her hands to make them stop.
Quinn:Did you think it all through
All these things catch up to you
And yeah time heals but this won't
So if you're coming my way
Brittany:Just don't
Santana:Oh it's so sad to think
About the good times
You and I!
Those girls were always puppies around each other,they were best friends and that never changed.Not even after highschool.But in a fight they were lethal and that never changed either-even if the fight was between them.
Brittany:I'm telling you I'm telling you!
All:We are never ever ever ever
Getting back together
We are never ever ever ever getting back together
Now we got problems and I don't think we can solve them
You made a really deep cut and now baby we got bad blood
(Santana:Getting back together) Ooh
(Quinn:Now we got bad blood)
Cause baby now we got bad blood
Santana gave the two others a hug and looked ar them in the eyes.Brittany returned as she placed her head against her ex-wife's shoulder.Meanwhile Quinn let a tear slide.
Quinn:Band aids don't fix bullet holes
With Brittany:You says sorry just for show
If you live like that you live with ghosts
Quinn with Santana and Brittany:If you love like that blood runs cold!
All:Cause baby we are never ever ever
Ever getting back together
We are never ever ever ever getting back together
Now we got problems
And I don't think we can solve them
But we are never ever ever ever
Getting back together
(Santana:Cause baby now we bad blood
You know it used to be mad love)
That was going to be the last time,wasn't it?Because many people say that one can be fixed and one can get broken,but truth is that,humans work like vases.A ball can break a vase and you can desperately try to glue it back together-you can even say that you got it fixed-but the vase is meant to break again.
Together
(Quinn:So take a look what you've done
Cause baby now we got bad blood)
You go talk
To your friends talk
To my friends talk to me
(Santana:You made a really deep cut
And now baby we got bad blood)
Getting back together!
"So it's true?We are never ever getting back together"Santana nodded and kiss Brittany's forehead while Quinn rubbed her back.

18:40, highschool yuard
"Hey"Brenda greeted and sat next to Thomas.The boy lifted his eyes to catch a brief glimpse at her before looking back down to the little wooden artifact Chuck had given him.He liked to hold it,it made his mind feel more free,with no boundaries.
"What have you been doing?"
"Nothing really"he simply replied.Of course he'd rather not get into details about his conversation with his mother,and honestly,he didn't feel like telling her.It wasn't as if he should lie to her about something-there was nothing to lie about-but that didn't mean he had to report to her either."How about you?"
"I was with Marley and George"
"Sounds like you had fun"
"Oh yeah,they're awesome"she added with a smile."Did you talk to your dad?"
"No,I don't think I will just yet"
"Well aren't your curious?You always looked for answers and now they are waiting for you"
"I'm just not ready"
"How can you say that wh--"
"Stop"he snapped.His voice was rough and sharp-which took her by surprise-but when he looked at her his gaze softened"I'm sorry,it's just,I'm not at my best these days"
"I figure"she smiled and kissed his cheek.It felt wrong in so many ways,you know,Thomas struggled not to pay attention to it.He didn't love Brenda-unconditionally-but he would in a while.After all you can always learn to love someone and that's a true fact.
"Hello shanks"Mihno greeted and sat next to them along with Sonya and Gally.Mercedes soon came outside while holding a blanket with Harriet.Aris stumbled in front and fell to the ground-where luckily they had placed the blanket-and let sleep take him away.
Marley and Ryder also came to sit at one of the tables while George was holding his mother by the neck.Thomas turned to Santana who walked in avoiding talking to her team and sat to the Gladers' table.
"What is going on?"
"What is always going on.We gather up,review the next day's plan and have some fun before we go to bed."
"It's 19:00,when exactly are we supposed to sleep?"
"Well we have George so Ryder has strictly requested no noise after 21:00"Santana laughed and opened a can of beer.Quinn chuckled as she grabbed a can herself and another one for Noah.Sam passed some water to Brittany-because who wanted a drunk-stripper Brittany-and Blaine open a packet of cigarrete.Rachel began nagging about how breathing the smoke would ruin her vocals while Artie tried-and failed-to keep Kitty from attacking the diva.
Tina and Mike were silently unloading their guns and checked their reflexes as Hunter explained them some military tricks.Daisy just sat next to Harriet and,sleepy,Aris while tapping her fingers at the table.
"Okay people,let's start"Santana announced"Look things are difficult and they'll probably be difficult for a while but,we will make this work.I promise"
"Hold the phone,are you making an inspirational speech?"Kitty questioned and began laughing.Santana glared at her and muttered something in Spanish.It was definetly not a compliment.
"Anywho,Tina and Noah would you have the honor to walk up here and take the attention of me"
"Are you sure you want them?Because their vocal skills are no matc--"
"Shut it Berry!"
Rachel rolled her eyes as Tina and Noah stood up.Thomas looked around to get a clear view of everyone until his eyes landed on Brittany.Something was up with her.
Tina:I guess we're in deep
I guess we got higher
You'll never believe
What I heard on the wire
Brittany tapped her foot and scratched her head.Three words were keep spinning inside her head.She struggled to find the connection,there had to be a connection.Until the truth hit her..
I know it ain't right
It's getting so tired
If we put up a fight
We'll be fueling the fire
She quickly rose from her seat and ran inside the school.She got it,her memory was trying to keep it away but she remembered,she remembered the only place that America's ex-president and ex-Mckinley's principal and of course ex-coach hated.
Noah:Oh, cause now all the things that we said and done
Twisted around, turned 'em wrong
Feels like all the love is gone
We lost it
We get stuck up inside our heads
Talk shit 'til we're walking dead
Talk shit 'til we're walking dead (dead dead)
Thomas saw her leaving.He decided to follow her for one reason or another,maybe it was his curiousity(unfortunately,curiousity killed the cat),or perphaps a power drew him to it.Brenda and Mihno exchanged a worried look before following him along with Daisy and Santana.Because really,who would leave a genius-but not really-and a hero-but not really-without being afraid of the outcome?
Both:Why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Yeah, why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Oh, cause I don't need to lie to you
You'll never break my heart
Yeah, you'll find the truth here in my arms
So can you tell me why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Brittany tried to open the trophy case on the principal's office.She got frusturated after failing to open the lock and toshed a chair at it.The glass smashed while Brittany took the Glee Club's trophy.She turned around to see Thomas looking at her with confusion before she cleaned the blood from her left cheek.
Noah:The envy runs deep
The jealousy down low
It's easy to see
But it's harder to let go
We ain't gonna hide (Tina:we ain't gonna hide)
We know what they don't know
A hell of a ride I swear I'll hold you close
She smashed the trophy against the table and saw it crack.Brenda covered her mouth as Mihno looked at her and back at Santana who came running.Brittany looked at the broken pieces maniacally until Daisy pointed out a flashdrive which was covered from the red stripes of the trophy.Brittany took it and connected it to the computer happily.
Both:Oh, cause now all the things that we said and done
Twisted around, turned 'em wrong
Feels like all the love is gone
We lost it We get stuck up inside our heads
Talk shit 'til we're walking dead
Talk shit 'til we're walking dead (dead dead)
Why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Yeah, why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Thomas and Daisy ran to sit next to Brittany with their eyes locked on the screen.Brenda shrugged her shoulders and joined them while Mihno and Santana looked at each other again.Santana smiled at him and messed his 'flawless'hair before they joined.And yes,for the first time,Mihno did not complain about someone messing his hair.
Oh, cause I don't need to lie to you
You'll never break my heart
Yeah, you'll find the truth here in my arms
So can you tell me why do we care about the rumors, baby?
A picture of an eagle in grey and black appeared as Brittany put the code.It was an easy and yet ironic phrase for everyone,wckd is good.
Tina:Try to keep an open heart
Try to just let down your guard
Don't, don't care about the rumors, babe
Noah:Get out of the gossip game
Get out of the haterade
Don't, don't care about,
don't care about
Don't care about the rumors
(Don't care about, don't care about)
Tina:Rumors Rumors
Don't care about the rumors
The shield cracked and a bunch of codes came on screen.Daisy was the most anxious of them,purely because she knew that logo,she fought against that logo.
Both:Why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Yeah, why do we care about the rumors, baby?
Oh, cause I don't need to lie to you
You'll never break my heart
Yeah, you'll find the truth here in my arms
The phrase Ilisium experement:Day 1 was at the bottom of the first video that played.The camera opened to reveal a woman with blue stripes of hair and glasses smiling.
Daniella Johnson a.k.a Dani a.ka Santana's ex-girlfriend.
So can you tell me why do we care about the rumors, baby?
"Ilisium experement day one"she smiled and waved"If you see this,then it means our experement is almost finished.It also means that we are most likely dead but you can't have it all in life"there was a laugh and a pause when she said it.It made Santana feel sadness inside of her.
"Today we are going to have our first-and hopefully last-subjects;Newt Puckerman and Teresa Abrams"
Thomas almost jumped from his seat.Meanwhile Mihno's jaw tightened at the mention of his best friend and cr--a girl he felt closed to.
"My name is Daniella Johnson,I'm a scientist of WCKD-the good WCKD-and I'm part of a group that will save the world."
///\\\///\\\
19:32
"Hold the camera tight,Elliot!"Dani instructed the man.They were now at day 8 and up until now they had meet Dani,Elliot and Bree.Santana explained quickly to them that Bree was the wife of Jake,Noah's brother and the one Hunter killed,and mother of one of their friends,Alby.
"But I'm so nervous!"
"Hello ladies and gentlemen"Bree announced as she entered the lab with two other men.Santana's eyes shined as she wiped away a small-barely visible-tear,Brittany faced her for some split seconds and returned to the screen.Thomas looked closer and turned to Santana.
"Who are they?"
"This is Kurt Hummel-Anderson"Brittany smiled and pointed at the man with the man with the scarf-yes because Kurt could make everything work-"Your dad"
Thomas couldn't help but smile,not a happy smile,a longing smile.A similar one to Santana's.
"And who is the other man?"
Brittany turned to see the man Mihno was pointing at,they were cuffed him in a bed and pull up his sleeves.Bree whispered something and injected him.The man let out a groan and turned to Kurt.
"I know you want to comment on this"
"Yeah I'm biting my tongue not to"Kurt laughed"but karma'a bitch"
"I'm not dying!"
"That's Sebastian Smythe"Santana explained.The name was enough to change the mood between her and Brittany,but frankly she didn't care about their little spat.She just cared about this moment.
"We write history today"Dani smiled"either that or Smythe dies"
"For the record,this was not on my contract!"
///\\\///\\\
20:05,undentified location
"You're ruining everything"the voice itself wasn't scary,nor the person from which it came,it was the power that made everyone scared.Because everyone knew that they could die at this very moment and there would be no mercy.
"I'm so-orry,I'm t-t-telling y-ou the tru-uth"she managed to stummer.The blood was dripping from her cheeks and it was mixed with the tears on her eyes.She hadn't seen that blood since she changed.She hated the sight of blood.
"Well,if you're sorry I guess I could overlook it"
There was that laugh again.A kind of laugh that would make anyone feel sick to his stomach because it wasn't a laugh to your words,but a laugh to your life.
There was a sound of breaking.She saw the shatter glass was everywhere and she was pretty sure there would be more things to be broken.
"Tell me something Beth"there was venom at every word"Do I look stupid to you?You swore loyality and out of all people,I never expected you to be that stupid to defy me"
"Please let me--"
"I wasn't finished"the reply was sharp and deadly.Beth was swore that these were her last moments,she would die in any second.
"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you?You mean nothing,you're replacable,I could kill you right now and in less than two minutes I'd have some other Crank taking your place.Might even use one of my Inhumans"
"Because I followed Thomas,he is at a highschool which is used as a secret military base an--"
"I don't care about the boy"Hive snapped"The boy was a test to prove that you are loyal and have no weaknesses.You failed the test so the boy does not ma--"
"Agent Daisy Johnson is with him,the quake woman"
"Skye?"the name slipped from the creature's lips in a way Beth hadn't seen in a while.She remembered these moments,moments when Hive would appear to have human-like behavior.It made her wonder if it was Hive's host who was so fond of the Inhuman and not the creature itself craving her powers.
"You got my attention,kid.There is just one thing I need you to do for me though-before I grant you a second chance"
"I'll do whatever I have to"
///\\\///\\\
20:55
"This is day 47 and we--"the video stops and the screen goes black.There are so many questions unanswered and Brittany feels like screaming...until she sees two familiar faces appear in the last video of the flash drive.
"My name is Leopold Fitz and I'm an ex-engineer of a secret organisation called S.H.I.E.L.D"
Mihno,Brenda and Thomas turned to face Daisy.The three of them want to ask her if she knows him.She just nods.And maybe that's enough.
"If everything are going according to plan,then you found it"he laughed while wiping away his tears of joy as Jemma sat next to him.
"We're so proud of you,Brittany"
"We're almost there"Jemma added with a soft smile.
"I knew you'd get the puzzle and find the tape-I just didn't know how long it would take you.Anyway,your journey is just about to begin-but if our calculations are correct-you are going to have people who support you"
"At least that is what Kurt and Sebastian told us"
"Remember when we told you about Hive?"
Thomas looked at Brittany who was thinking.Yeah,she remembered Hive,she remembered everything about that creature.
"Hive is a very strong Inhuman and if we don't do something,it is going to destroy the mankind.By the time you see this,it'll probably have recruited more Inhumans to its group,it will be harder to stop it that way.But we have successfully found a weakness"
"It is the host!Hive has the memories of its host so it has his weaknesses."Jemma finished Fitz's sentence.Brittany missed the science babies.
"You need to find Daisy Johnson and show this to her"
The group turned around to see Daisy being a lot less confused at them.She took a deep breathe and walked closer to the computer.
"Skye,you are the only one who can stop Hive.You're the only one Ward cared about,we are depending on you.The whole world is depending on you"Jemma cried and held Leo's hand.
"But we did had to find a plan B in case you can not find Daisy-she could be dead as far as we know-so if that's the case"
"There is a sanctuary in England.We wrote the coordinates at the back of your helmet in case you would forget them.Go there and take your friends with you,you're going to be safe-not forever-but it will be the last place Hive will destroy.It's your best chance"
The screen turned to black for the last time.Thomas awkwardly coughed and closed the screen"So,Daisy,care to fill us in?"
"I don't think I have a choice"she sighed"Get ready people because this story contains romance,betrayal,some psychopaths,battleship,selfish idiots,a broken person and the most stupid person in this whole damn universe"
"Gally?"Brenda asked.
"No,me"Daisy replied.

21:57,Fabray Manor
"I see you're alive"Malick stated and sat at the first chair he saw.Beth spinned around and looked at him with mad eyes.
"Not thanks to you,rat"
"A survivor does what he has to do to survive"
"I knew you'd say something like that"she laughed and looked at her house's livingroom.She missed the days when she would live there.She missed her mum,her dad and she missed Newt-even missed Mihno who ate all her food.
"So it spared your meaningless life?"
"Yeah it did"Beth smirked"I learned something actually,turns out,Hive doesn't like rats."
Gideon flinched at her words.She unbottoned her jacket leaving only her bloody top on and let her hair fall to her shoulder.She began laughing as she took the matches from her second drawer.
"He also said he'd let my Crank side to take over for a while"she smirked while her eyes turned"He said it would be worse for you"
Beth opened the front door letting a bunch of Cranks enter.The creatures run towards Malick as she sat down and laughed.
Beth:Did my invitations disappear?
Why'd I put my heart on every cursive letter?
Tell me why the hell no one is here
Tell me what to do to make it all feel better
She watched them rip his flesh apart.The music calmed down her spirit,she still had to have some sanity in her.And though she felt bad for the man's death,she knew the bastard deserved it.He had it coming.
Maybe it's a cruel joke on me
Whatever, whatever
Just means there's way more cake for me
Forever, forever
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
She stood up and pat the Cranks like they were some kind of animals.All these time she had spent with the bad guys made her actually see them as creatures worse than animals.She let down her matches one by one while Malick begged her to help him.His body was almost devoured but he used every strength that was left inside of him to yell.
Maybe if I knew all of them well
I wouldn't have been trapped inside this hell that holds me
Maybe if I cast another spell
And told them that decorations were in pastel ribbons
Maybe it's a cruel joke on me
Whatever, whatever
Just means there's way more cake for me
Forever, forever
She let down a lighter and watch the room burn.She liked the warmth of it but she knew she had to leave.Maybe stay for just some minutes.Just feel the fire.
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames It's my party and
I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
She saw Malick slowly passing away and she saw her house being burned down-for the second time-and she was sad.Yet she wanted to laugh so hard at what was happening.Why did she feel so much?
I'm laughing, I'm crying It feels like I'm dying
I'm laughing, I'm crying It feels like I'm dying
I'm laughing, I'm crying It feels like I'm dying
I'm dying, I'm dying
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
If I want to, if I want to It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Her sanity came back soon enough.She took a deep breathe and ran outside the burning house.
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party, it's it's my party
It's my party, it's it's my party
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry cry cry
She took out her phone-or at least what was left from the device-and looked at the broken screen.She still had her and Newt as the screensaver,Beth touched her brother's face and smiled.
"I'll see you soon,I promise"
Notes:
I'm wondering if anyone caught the easter eggs(a.k.a spoilers)in this chapter?If not,I'll give you a hint,pay attention to how I use the word 'truth'(and words related to it)and then look at the title.
Anyway,I know that the last song has literally no connection to the scene BUT here's the connection:
Melanie Martinez=psycho(well not her,only her songs)
Beth=psycho therefore Beth=Melanie Martinez
The whole point is that I can't help but picture this song as Beth sets the house on fire.Blame Pity Party's videoclip!
