Battle of the Classes 2

Within a few weeks, everything settled back down from talks about Kas's fights. Within that period, a Battle of the Classes was announced. The theme given was "Desire," which allowed students to come out about something they want to tell, but couldn't. The only requirement was that the students had to sing three different songs. This time, the teachers were not competing.

The first class announced to perform were the juniors. Khaston stepped on stage, and told Terry to hit it.

LOVE! Comfortable, peaceful days (I love you)
Dreams of youth? It's not like that

Hey, let's water the tree in the garden (okay okay)
How am I? I'm not bad

Even so, your face is too close!
And you're pressuring me with those eyes!!
It's not like that! It's not like that, so!
Listen, I'm not that—— soft!

Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again

I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine (Oh we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind (Yeah but this is happenin')
You've been havin' real bad dreams oh oh
You used to lie so close to me oh oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love
Oh our love, our love

Awawa, awawawa, wait just a second, hold on!
It's true that I'm smiling a lot—a lot—a lot, but
It's not like that! (It's not!) Shut up! (Shut up!)
I definitely don't like you or anything!

It's not like that! It's not like that! That's not how it is!
If I'm completely honest, I really like you too much, but
I'm asking you, so please, don't look at my face
I like you, but I don't like you; I like you, but—forgive me!!

"Everyone is really important"
It's hard to express it well
You're more complicated than you look
Next time we meet, my true, honest feelings
I want to speak them...I can't say it!

Just give me a reason just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again

Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent, and we can learn to love again

If you stand still on this expanding earth
And close your eyes
You'll know the light
And the meaning of the dream you had yesterday
Believe in you - c'mon, let's go

I'm not even afraid of the sorrow
Or pain that I must get over
There is a life I'm joined with
Believe in you - I'll go towards tomorrow

We'll cross the waves of time
And finally arrive there, I'm sure

I won't lose
On that day when I was helplessly lost
Your words pushed my back

What I hear when I stare at my palms and listen carefully...
Is it someone's voice? Is it the song of the wind?
The heavens cried
Believe in you - we're living on

Illuminated by moonlight
I'll start walking to a still uncultivated land

Until the time I squeeze back
Your hand once again
There's a light I'll keep searching for

The newborn stars twinkle
As if guiding me
Now release the song of eternity

You spread out your damaged wings and looked up at the sky
And waited for the time to take flight

You dance alone in a rain of sorrow
As if having a dream you can't wake from

You departed into the light
That you saw for the first time on a joyous morning

...

The world is trying to bring about the end
And no one is trying to stop it.
---It's starting.
The symphony of destruction echoes out.
The rain that falls sounds almost like the tone of tears.

Tell me.

Do people who control and are controlled
One day forget what it means to love
Because of the hatred in their hearts,
And attack others?

I can hear this song coming to me.
All you who have life,
The truth is inside your heart
Because even in times in which I must go to the stormy ocean,
It gives you strength
That never hesitates.

However, the further we move ahead, the stronger the wind gets,
And so the flame of hope starts to go out.
"Hand over the light!" The people scramble for it,
And once it comes to this, people kill each other,
Their tears dried.

Notice it.

Your eyes are for acknowledging each other.
Your voice is to convey your feelings.
Your hand is to hold with the one who is precious to you.

I can hear this song coming to me.
All of you who have nowhere to go,
Hope is in your hearts
Because even in blazing flames,
It gives you a strength
That will never be scathed.

Are those things you tried to protect
The things you truly loved?
You gaze at your hand dyed in crimson
And finally realize the foolishness you have committed,
Admit it to be a mistake, and
Cry without an end for your sins.

I can hear this song coming to me.
All you who have life,
The truth is inside your heart
The stormy ocean has quieted,
No matter if the things you have lost are countless.

I can hear this song coming to me.
All of you who have nowhere to go,
Hope is in your hearts
When you overcome the night of sadness,
I am sure you will come out
Holding the strength to live on

Khaston and his group left the stage, before the seniors were called up. The ones who came onstage were Ren, Yun, and Blonde Chandler.

Ren Yun Chandler

I shake off the will of god, THIS IS MY LIBERATION

My tears dry up, the borderline gets blurry, my jolting puzzling emotions get erased
Tomorrow too, we wage on an eternal battle alone
We connect our bond, (I WILL) and grasp on to glory (GO ON)
If this future is about to be destroyed

UNCHAIN YOUR LIFE, Tear apart your soul
UNBREAK DESTINY, Break through it
Break your heart time & time again, revive your soul that's rotting away
TURN BACK THE TIME, repeat the illusions
FIGHT BACK THE PAIN, resurrect your instincts
Burn out time & time again, life rises from those ashes
I shake off the will of god, THIS IS MY LIBERATION

My heart clouds up, I spit out my maddened heart, my love gets distorted
Today too, we dream of a world without hatred eternally
Wishing for a miracle, (I WILL) we chose the back-lighting (PRAY ON)
If this freedom is about to get stolen away

(All)
This life
Goes on

Reclaim your light
Regain your right
Release your mind
Your heart unwind

Reclaim your light
Regain your right
Release your mind
Your heart unwind

This life
Goes on

(All)
UNCHAIN YOUR LIFE, Tear apart your soul
UNBREAK DESTINY, Break through it
Break your heart time & time again, revive your soul that's rotting away
TURN BACK THE TIME, repeat the illusions
FIGHT BACK THE PAIN, resurrect your instincts
Burn out time & time again, life rises from those ashes
I shake off the will of god, THIS IS MY LIBERATION

About an hour passed since the end of the performances and the end of class. Terry, the headmaster, Emma, and Gloria were in the room, waiting for Kayla. After she arrived, the teachers and headmaster began talking about who they thought did the best. As soon as they came to a consensus, Terry said that he will declare the winner when he has the time. The meeting ended, and the teachers saw Kas and Mudae comparing wingspan.

Ren and the Chandlers were on their way to the entrance, but stopped once they saw Kas and Mudae comparing wingspan. Soon, the hallway was crowded with people wanting to see the teachers and people who wanted to leave campus.

Eventually, the hallway cleared up, and students began to leave the school, aside from those who were going to a club. Terry went and announced the winners, the seniors, to everyone still at school.

...

Late at night, Kas arrived at the imperial castle, meeting Zen at the gates. When the latter arrived, the two made their way to the port.

"Are you ready for the concert?"

When Zen and Kas left for the port, the two stoped by their homes to pick up their instruments, before going to the concert venue.
