Part 10: Motor City, Michigan Battle Of The Bands (part 3)
Leona Kenobi's Point of View:
I can't believe that I had a saddening flashback last night.... That was mortifying... But I had the Solo Triplets by my side to comfort me.... That was.... I say, a blessing to me. I still feel sad though, I... Haven't told the Solo Triplets about my ability to revert to another language when sad, I have a choice of two languages to revert to when I don't feel like speaking English in my sadness.... My most 2 fluent languages I speak well are French and Italian. Should I tell them or not? I will tell them before round 2 of the Battle Of the Bands.... Just my luck, Ben and his brothers caught me at the right moment. Now's my chance to talk to them about what happens when I speak another language fluently in sadness. Even our manager Sky comes by to listen to what I have to say... Even our band mates.... It's now or never.
Ben Solo's Point of View:
After that flashback Leona had during the first round of the Battle Of the Bands last night, she still seems very sad... So our manager, Sky, Kylo and his band mates, Matt and I walked over to her. In fact, she waved us over to her... We sat down with her, and we handed her a drink, and she starts to quiver again, but she begins to tell us, what she is going to tell us. She began with a saddening sigh, I held her hand and to calm her down, I said to her, "don't be nervous, please let the nerves go, and tell us what you have to say." She nods and lets out a shaky breath, and she replies, "Ben, Matt, Kylo and Sky, I have something to confess... When I'm very sad or feeling angsty, asides from music, I am fluent in other languages... I revert to either French or Italian, when I'm upset.... Something I feel ready to revert to either right now...." Matt replies, "I am able to translate what she says if this happens. It also may come in handy for worldwide tours... I'm good at translating French and Italian..." Kylo and I were happy to have our roadie translate what Leona says if her language changes due to sadness.
Skylar Skywalker's Point of View:
I could feel for Leona, I really did... But she never reverted to another language there, but Matt offered to be her translator. We've landed in Motor City Michigan, and this is the home to another metal band, The First Order, frontman's name is Armitage Hux. If our band and they meet, our peacekeeper Leona will stop rivalry between them. I hear that Hux has a cat traveling with him... We saw Armitage in the city streets of Motor City Michigan. "Hello, Armitage." I call to him, he replies, "hello Sky, heard your band has a female member.... She's good, I heard her on YouTube.... She's beautiful in appearance as well... Is she ok? I read the paper today, she ran off crying after singing her solo at the Battle Of the Bands in Staten Island NY...." I replied to Armitage, "she had a flashback of the death of a family pet, whom she loved dearly.... Her old Labrador retriever, Shadow." Armitage's eyes widen with shock, and said, "how saddening, I wish to meet her... Do you have any tickets for the round 2 of the Battle Of the Bands here in Motor City Michigan?" I nodded and handed 3 tickets to Hux, and if the Knights of Ren win again, they'd never need to bother about round 3.
We got to the auditorium for the next round of the battle of the bands against the Rebels.
Armitage Hux's Point of View:
I felt sorry for the female vocalist of The Knights of Ren, and to be honest, losing her mom was bad enough, but losing a dog? That's worse, I have to meet her tonight. Get to know her better. So I asked for 2 tickets for the show of the Battle Of the Bands. I'm rooting for The Knights of Ren to win the battle, it's best of 3. They already won round one. That's was on the Rebels home turf, Staten Island. Our home turf is where round 2 is taking place. The pop band, showed up first. Kylo is my friend, we both have rock bands, and that's saying something. Our manager is Snoke... Sky is the manager of The Knights of Ren. I'd like to form a metal supergroup under the name of our band, The First Order. With a girl on the band, we'd be unstoppable.
The second round of The Battle of the Bands begins
Rey's Point of View:
Ok Knights of Ren, this round is ours... The Rebels are taking you down.
Our songs for this round are:
5,6,8,8 (Steps)
Soledad (Westlife) (Solo)
take my breath away (Berlin)
If this goes well, one of our songs might just trigger off the female vocalist of The Knights of Ren... But if she's resilient, she'll be tougher to break emotionally.
Poe Dameron's Point of View:
Rey's going to try and break the female vocalist of The Knights of Ren? That's unfair. She knows how Kylo Ren and his band are better than us... She's becoming an underhanded cheater, breaking Leona Kenobi to win round 2? That's nasty...
Finn's Point of View:
We have to protect Leona's feelings... Rey is secretly planning to break Leona to win the 2nd round. I snuck away to talk to Sky.
I said to her... "Rey's going to try breaking your female singer's resolve by trying to sing a sad song to give her an unfair advantage, sky, warn the band you manage. Don't let her break her." Sky nods and does so.
Kylo Ren's Point of View:
What a turn of events, we just received a warning from the opponent band's bassist, Finn. Their singer is going to try breaking my female vocalist, reduce her to tears with her solo song apparently.
We counted with our list.
We chose the following songs our group songs are:
The Greatest Show (The Greatest Showman Ensemble)
Chillin' like a villian (descendants tribute)
Leona's Solo: Stairway To Heaven (Led Zeppelin)
My friend, Armitage Hux was in the audience in the front row, again Adam Driver was there. He lives led Zeppelin so we put Leona's solo as their most famous song, Stairway To Heaven. She's gonna sound great.
The contest starts.
Hux was called by me to host the 2rd round. He called us up first and we started with Chillin' Like A Villian from Descendants
Rey's band's, The Rebels turn, the went for a Steps classic, 5,6,7,8, from the album, steptacular.
The band the audience claps for is the Knights of Ren. Then came the Solo performance.
Ben Solo's Point of View:
The Solo performance is next, so Leona goes on stage and belts out a Led Zeppelin classic, Stairway To Heaven
Rey's going to try to break Leona, but I won't let it happen. She's singing one of the many Westlife songs that bring a silent tear to her eye. Soledad
Leona holds her own out there, and her resolve never broke... She stayed strong and never cried. Not even a flashback triggered. And the crowds went crazy for the Knights of Ren yet again. The crowds booed at The Rebels. Even though Finn and Poe warned the band about Rey's tactics.
The final group songs are next...
Leona Kenobi's Point of View: now we sang the following songs as a group. My band's singing The Greatest Show.
The crowd goes wild, and they loved us so much. The Rebels sang their last song, take my breath away.
Hux announced the winner of round 2, and we won again.
Mikata comes to us and asked, "as the winner of the Battle Of the Bands, would you guys like to join forces with The First Order and become a metal music supergroup?" Kylo nods and we become one with The First Order. Sky and Snoke joined forces to manage us all.
Adam Driver's Point of View:
Am I hearing that correctly? My potential girlfriend is joining forces with her band and the First Order? It's true. Before she leaves soon, I'll ask her out on a date... get to know her better too.
Wait, Leona is coming to me on her own... She asks, "hi Adam, what are you doing on your lonesome? A handsome man like you, out to a Battle Of the Bands, all alone?" I blushed and handed her the gifts Carmella, her friend gave for me to give her, a box of minty lindor chocolate truffles, according to Carmella, these are her favourite chocolate brand
an eternity bracelet,
and a gorgeous bouquet of black and red roses.
She graciously accepted the presents and I asked her, "would you like to be my girl?" "Yes I shall Adam. How long have you known that you loved me?" Leona replies, and I said, "I fell in love with you the moment you arrived here." Then as her band and the Rebels watched, we shared first kiss together. A cancerian and a Scorpio.... This could mean we are indeed soulmates. Could this be the start of a beautiful romance? Only time will tell if it is going to last.
