Here's my first WWRY story. You can also find it on fanfiction.net. It's pretty much just the play completely from Scaramouche's point of view. I know I skipped some stuff in it but it's been a while since I've seen it so... anyway, here's chapter 1. Chapter 1: www.Sally/Mcains@mygooglefacespacebook.com woke up and glared into the bright sunlight streaming through her bedroom window. She groaned and winced when she heard the familiar techno beat of a stupid Ga Ga song. Her brother must be awake and getting ready for another day at Virtual Elementary School. Sally grumbled as she crawled out of bed, walked down the hall to her brother's room and banged on his bedroom door. " Hey Mikey! Turn that noise off!" she shouted. www.Mikey/Mcains@mygooglefacespacebook.com opened his bedroom door and stared at her like she had ten heads. "Noise?" he asked, blinking his blue eyes in dazed confusion. Mikey was every inch a Ga Ga. With his bright blue eyes, wavy golden brown hair and plastic smile on his face, he looked just like their parents, Steve and Anna Marie. Sally stuck out in her family like a sore thumb. She had dyed, purple, tangled hair, dark green eyes, black, baggy, ripped clothing and a sarcastic personality. Her parents constantly looked at her with a disapproving eye, as did everyone else who saw her. Like she cared what the Ga Ga's thought. " This isn't noise." Mikey stated. " This is the latest on Radio Ga Ga." Sally glared at him. " Well, it's also crap." she retorted. Mikey just ignored what she said. " Shouldn't you be getting ready for school?" he asked " It is your graduation today. Aren't you exited?" he said with a cheesy smile. Sally just rolled her eyes at him a slammed the door in her face. "Thrilled." she said sarcastically. She went back down the hall and to her room, changed out of her pajamas and into her baggy, ripped black sweater, tattered black skirt and black combat boots. She then proceeded to stomp down the hall, down the stairs, grabbed her book bag and went out the door without saying goodbye to her parents. She shook her head when she stepped outside and into the bright gaudiness of Planet Mall. All around her was Global Soft Yuppies, Ga Ga Girls and Boy Zone boys. They always were grinning like maniacs and all she could here was Ga Ga songs. " I hate this place." she sighed as she walked down the street and towards Virtual High School. ****
"www.Sally/Mcains@mygooglefacespacebook.com, your late." a teacher said disapprovingly. Sally rolled her eyes at the teacher. " Big whoop." she mumbled The teacher shook her head at Sally with a frown. " If you hurry, you can make to the Graduation ceremony. Now go!" she hissed at her. The teacher then plastered on a bright smile. " And congratulations. I sure that you would be a... very interesting part to Global Soft." she said. Sally just shook her head and stomped down the hall, stopping and fighting the urge to vomit when she heard her classmates singing like robots. All we hear is radio Ga Ga Video Goo Goo Internet Ga Ga All we hear is cyberspace Ga Ga Marketing Blah Blah
Always something new Global Soft, all your world loves youSally grimaced when she saw all her Ga Ga classmates cheering as they celebrated their graduation. All but one. As Sally stared, a boy ran though the class, causing them to scatter. The boy had floppy brown hair, large brown eyes and he was wearing a tattered leather jacket, a black t-shirt and a pair of dark, ripped jeans. He looked confused and angry as he burst out into song, shocking the teacher who was trying to talk to him and shocking Sally as well. I want to break free I want to break free I want to break free from your lies You're so self satisfied I don't need you I've got to break free God knows God knows I want to break free
I've fallen in love I've fallen in love for the first time In love with a world that's real I've fallen in love yeah God knows God knows I've fallen in loveSally was amazed. She had never heard music like that in her entire life. It wasn't techno or computerized like the Ga Ga songs. It had a rhythm and beat all of it's own. She watched as the boy continued to run around and sing desperately. It's strange but it's true, oh! I know I'm different, there's so much I have to do But I have to be sure When I walk out that door Oh how I want to be free baby Oh how I have to be free Oh how I want to break freeSally stared at the boy. He was allot different from any boys she had met from the Boy Zone. She had strange feelings coursing through her when she looked at him. She looked down when she noticed her foot was tapping to the beat. When she looked back up again to see the boy, there were bars in her way! She could no longer hear singing, but she could hear some speaking going on on the other side. When the bars were gone, the boy was no longer there. But standing there was the teacher who had tried to talk to him and there was also a man with slicked back gray blond hair and he was wearing a gray suit and a pair of sunglasses. She did not like the look of that man at all. " Are there any other potential Bohemians in this year's Graduating class?" the man asked. Sally blinked in confusion. What was a Bohemian? She looked up when the teacher answered his question. " I'm sorry to have to report Commander, but there is one other. A repulsive creature. A girl!" she said with disgust. Sally narrowed her eyes at this statement. They were talking about her, she just knew it! That was the last straw. She didn't know what came over her, but she stepped out and began to sing. Sing the same song that the boy had sang. I want to break free I want to break free I want to break free from your lies You're so self satisfied I don't need you I've got to break free God knows God knows I want to break free!

Chapter 2:
The sound of shrill laughter made Sally stop her singing. She looked up in shock, which soon turned into annoyance when she saw who it was.It was Cici, Trixie, Minnie,Bonnie and Franny. The Teen Queens. They were the most popular Ga Ga girls. Everyone loved them.
" Check out the loser girl!" Cici called. They all laughed again.
" Look at what your wearing!" Trixie sneered " Doesn't your mom download anything nice for you to wear?"
Sally glared at them. She ran a hand over the sleeve of her sweater. "I make my own fashion statements!" she retorted.
Bonnie glanced over her outfit. " Oh yeah? What's todays statement? Hello, I'm a pathetic ugly little zero?"
Sally balled her hands into fists. She was really getting annoyed with them.
" How will you ever get a boy from the Boy Zone dressed like that?" Minnie asked.
Sally glared at them all. She didn't want a stupid boy from the stupid Boy Zone! They were all the same. Thick headed, pompous, stuck up fools!
" You are such a sad loner!" Franny said.
Sally just crossed her arms and rolled her eyes at them. " Well I'd rather be a sad loner than a bubble brained idiot like you !" she spat. The Teen Queens all gasped.
Cici looked at her with disgust. " You are a disgrace to the Ga Ga girls!" she declared. The other Teen Queens all nodded in agreement.
Sally stomped forward a bit. " I ain't no Ga Ga girl!" she said angrily. She felt so alone and that loneliness was building up inside of her. She had to let it out! She took a deep breath and began to sing again, sing like she had never sang before.
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
The Teen Queens all laughed at her. She just ignored them, even when they started singing in the background with her song. She didn't know if they were making fun of her or just couldn't help singing along.
Each morning I get up I die a little Can barely stand on my feet (take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry) Lord, what you doing to me I spent all my years to believe in you But I just can't get no relief, Lord Somebody (somebody), ooh somebody (somebody) Can anybody find me somebody to love
"Somebody to love you?!" Cici asked. "Yeah right!" Minnie jeered. "Thats so not going to happen!" Trixie stated. "Stop daydreaming and get a virtual life!" Bonnie called.
Sally just glared at them and continue to sing, even louder. She lamented her song about loneliness, desperation and she longed for someone to give her love to each night. For some reason, she thought she distantly heard that boy with the leather jacket's song about breaking free and his wide brown eyes flashed in her mind. But she quickly pushed them away. She would most likely never see him again and she felt a slight pang of sadness in her heart.
I work hard (she works hard) Every day of my life I work till I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day) I take home my broken heart all on my own I get down (down) on my knees (knees) And I start to pray (praise the lord) Till the tears run down from my eyes (oooh) Oh somebody (somebody), ooh somebody (somebody) Can anybody find me somebody to love
As she sang the part about praying, Sally fell down to her knees and threw her hands desperately in the air.
Everyday (everyday) I try and I try and I try But everybody wants to put me down They say I'm going crazy They say I got a lot of water on my brain I got no common sense I got nobody left to believe Yeah!
Sally felt stomped her feet angrily as the Teen Queens all circled around her jeering and pointing their fingers at her. She whipped around and glared at them and they all ran away screaming and trying to fix their hair. Sally then turned around at looked sadly up at the sky that was showing through the single large window on the ceiling.
Got no feel, I got no rhythm I just keep losing my beat (You just keep losing and losing!) I'm OK, I'm all right (she's ok - she's all right) And I ain't gonna face no defeat I just gotta get out of this prison cell (prison cell) One day I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Sally began stomping around as the Teen Queens sang in the background.
(Find me somebody to love Find me somebody to love Find me somebody to love Find me somebody to love Find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me oh...
(somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody Somebody find me somebody to love)
Can anybody find me somebody to love Somebody to love!
Sally finished the song with a long held note, surpassing the Teen Queens. Suddenly they gasped and ran away. Sally blinked with confusion. Her singing wasn't that bad was it? She soon saw why they ran away.
It was that man in the gray suit and the sunglasses. Sally took a step back.
" Aww, how touching girl. But don't you know the company loves you? Arrest her!" the man said.
Suddenly, two men grabbed Sally. She struggled and tried to get away.
"Global Soft equals fascism!" she shouted as the dragged her away.
She then felt a sharp pain to her head and everything went black.

Chapter 3:
Sally moaned as she came around. She had no clue were she was, why she was in a wheelchair and why her head was killing her. She looked around and saw that, sitting across from her, was the boy with the leather jacket. He was coming around as well. His eyes widened when he saw her.
" Hey Ga Ga girl! Who are you?" he asked staring at her.
Sally narrowed her eyes at him and stood up. " I ain't no Ga Ga girl, and I don't answer questions! " she spat at him. " Who are you?" she asked suspiciously.
The boy let out a sigh. " I'm... I don't know you I am." he said, downcast.
Sally rolled her eyes " Oh well that's smart!" she said.
The boy glanced at her momentarily. " But my name's Galileo Figaro!" he said proudly.
" Cool name." Sally said.
Galileo grinned at her " Thanks!" he said.
Sally crossed her arms. " I wasn't being serious." she said. " Mind if I shorten it?" she asked.
Galileo shrugged. " Well I guess just Galileo would be---"
Sally cut him off. " So Figgy, tell me, why did they arrest you?" she asked.
" Because I hear strange sounds in my head. Sounds and words. I'm mad you see!" he shouted, waving his arms and stepping towards her.
Sally took a step back. " I got arrested cuz THEY DON'T LIKE THE WAY I DRESS!" she shouted, glaring towards the door.
Galileo stared at her up and down. " I think you dress beautifully." he said softly.
Sally glanced at him. " Thats nice." she said " Except the fact that its coming from a self proclaimed madman! " she noticed the downcast look on his face. She softened slightly. " What sounds do you hear?" she asked.
Galileo shrugged. " I'm not really sure." he admitted. " All I know is that they don't like it. Because it's different.That's why the Boy Zone Boys make fun of me." He sunk down on the floor.
" The Ga Ga Girls hate me!" Sally said.
" And do you know why?" Galileo asked looking up at her.
" Yeah, they think I'm a lesbian because I don't wear pastels!" she said shrugging her shoulders.
" No!" Galileo said. " It's because your different. Your a weirdo."
" Oh jee thanks!" Sally said narrowing her eyes at him.
" No! Weird is good." Galileo said to her. " Weird frightens them."
Sally let out a sigh and sat down next to him. She balled her hands angrily into fists. " Why can't they just leave us alone?" she asked.
Galileo shook his head. " They will never leave us alone." he sighed. " Don't you see?" he asked " We're a threat! Ummm, a virus... on their hardrive. And they won't stop until they've pointed their little arrow at us..."
"And dragged us to trash!" Sally gasped.
They both looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear. They began to sing again
Pressure! Pushing down on me! Pressing down on you, no man ask for Under pressure!
Galileo stood up and looked around in fear. He continued to sing.
That brings a building down, Splits a family in two,
Sally stood up as well. The words just seemed top tumble out of her.
Puts people on streets!
She held her hands out in front of her, as if trying to grasp on to some sort of help. She sang in a desperate tone.
Um ba ba be! Um ba ba be!
Galileo took a step towards her, an arm reached out in a reassuring gesture. He sang to her.
De day oh. De day oh.
Sally took a step back from him and shook her head slightly as she sang.
That's okay
Galileo turned away from her and kicked his wheelchair away as Sally did the same thing. He began to unrrap the gauze from around his head as he sang.
It's the terror of knowing what this world is about!
Sally unrapped the gauze from her head as well was she continued to sing.
Watching some good friends screaming,
They both threw their arms into the air, their hands balled into fist and sang loudly.
Let me out!
Galileo left one arm up in the air as he sang
Pray tomorrow gets me higher!
They both faced each other and sang in unison.
Pressure on people, people on streets!
Galileo suddenly turned away and winced in pain as he clutched his and sang at the same time.
Day day de! mm hm. Da da da ba ba.
Sally stared at with nervously and sang with slight uncertainty.
Okay...
Galileo, still wincing slightly sang some more.
Chippin' around - kick my brains around the floor These are the days it never rains but it pours Ee do ba be Ee da ba ba ba Um bo bo Be lap
People on streets - ee da de da de People on streets - ee da de da de da de da
It's the terror of knowing What this world is about Watching some good friends screaming,
Sally decided to join him in singing again. They shouted once more.
Let me out!
Galileo turned to Sally and sang some more, finishing it with a long held note.
Pray tomorrow gets me higher and higher
As he held that note Sally took a few steps towards him until they were face to face and she sang softly.
Pressure on people, people on streets!
They both suddenly realized how close they were and they quickly sat down, blushing and sang quietly.
Turned away from it all like a blind man! Sat on a fence but it don't work!
Galileo glanced at her and sang some more as they leaned closer together, their lips almost touching.
Keep coming up with love but it's all slashed and torn!
Sally quickly turned away and stood up again and sang loudly, looking up at the ceiling.
Why - why - why?
She then stomped around the room singing loudly as Galileo watched her with burning eyes.
Love! Love! Love! Love!
Galileo stood up as well and began singing again.
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking!
Sally threw her hands in the air in desperation and cried out.
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Galileo watched her from across the room and sang sadly.
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Sally turned and looked at him and sang some more, they were slowly walking towards each other.
Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love Give love, give love, give love, give love, give love!
Galileo was singing as well.
'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word,
They both began to sing together as they walked slowly.
And love dares you to care for The people on the edge of the night And loves dares you to change our way Of caring about ourselves This is our last chance This is our last dance
Galileo sang softly.
This is ourselves,
When they were face to face and Sally could feel his warm breath on her face and they stared deeply into each others eyes, she had a strange longing feeling course through her. She sang in almost a whisper.
Under pressure.
They both sang in unison leaning towards each other once more, but looked quickly in opposite directions.
Under pressure.
They leaned together once more, Sally almost felt his lips brush against hers, but they both turned away and sang softly.
Pressure.

Chapter 4:Sally stood there for a few moments, until she realized how close together she and Galileo where. He seemed to notice it too. They both took a few steps away from each other laughing nervously. Sally glanced over at Galileo. " So... were to we go now?" she asked. Galileo glanced at her then grinned slightly. " Well..." he said " out into the night, out into the streets!" he pumped a fist into the air grinning. " We're rebels now ! Cause baby, we're born to run!" he cried, holding out a hand to her. Sally put her hands on her hips and narrowed her eyes at him. " Don't call me baby!" she spat. Galileo shrugged and looked down at his feet. " Sorry." he mumbled " It was a phrase I heard in my head." Sally shook her head at him. " Yeah well, keep it there." she said. Beginning to walk away. She glanced back and smirked when she saw him following her. " Like a lost puppy." she mumbled *** Sally grumbled as she walked on a dusty path, glaring at Galileo's back as he walked in front her. It seemed like he was trying to do enough talking for the two of them. " All my life, I felt I had this purpose." he said. He then turned around a faced Sally, he was still walking though. " You know, like some sort of special destiny." He looked up at the sky then back at her. "Well it has to mean something doesn't it?" he asked grinning. Sally rolled her eyes and crossed her arms as she walked. " Oh yeah it does mean something." she said with sarcasm. " It means that your a self centered, arrogant, asshole." she said. Galileo frowned at her. Sally let out a sigh and licked her lips. She was so tired and thirsty, but at least she wasn't doing this on her own. " All right, what special destiny?" she asked, hoping he wouldn't go into another long dialog. " Well," Galileo began, "first I see this huge open space." he said holding his arms out in front of him to indicate the space. " And there's these bright lights, loud noises and sounds and then there's the words." he said, his eyes had a far away look to them. Sally rolled her eyes, " Ohhh,what words?" she asked. Galileo glanced at her again. " They say, go to the place of living rock. A bright, bright star will lead the way. Go to where the champions played." he let out a small sigh and winced as if his head was bothering him. Sally glanced at him. It must be awful, constantly hearing all those voices and sounds in his head. But really, the place of living rock? " Sounds like bullshit to me." she said, walking ahead of him. She heard Galileo sigh once more. " Maybe..." he said trailing off. Sally turned around and faced him again. Galileo was no longer walking though. He was staring at her with a strange look on his face. " What!" she spat. Galileo looked down at his feet then back at her, tugging on the sleeve of his jacket." I-I think I heard a name for you too." he said. Sally gaped at him and walked back up to him. Why would he want to give her a name. She already had a name. Truthfully, she hated her name. It was so Ga Ga. But they barely knew each other and he was naming her? " And why would you do that? You only met me yesterday." Sally said with her arms crossed and a skeptic look on her face. Galileo shrugged. " Well, you never told me your name and I always just knew there was another rebel out there! Another wild one!" he grinned, poking her in the stomach. Sally shoved him away, but she was interested. " Okay... so what do you want to call me?" she asked. Galileo smiled at her. " Are you ready?" he asked. Sally grinned slightly. " Yeah!" she said, nodding. " Scaramouche!" Galileo said proudly. Sally's grin faded away. " Scaramouche?" she asked with her hands on her hips. Galileo paused and looked at her with a frown. " Yeah. What's wrong with it?" he asked. " Hmmm, well it's crap!" Sally said with a sarcastic happiness. " No!" Galileo said. Sally stared at him with a straight face. " People will call me Scary Bush." she said bluntly. " No they wouldn't!" Galileo cried. " I would." Sally said. Galileo shook his head " Well, I thought of others. But frankly, I thought that was the best one." he said. " What where the others?" Sally asked. "Long tall Sally." " Ummm... I'm kind of short..." "Honky-tonk woman." " No way." "Lucy in the sky with diamonds." " Tacky." "Fat-bottomed girl." "Hey!" "Bare Naked Lady!" "Uh!" Galileo gave Sally a " I told you so" look. Sally let out a sigh. " I'll go with Scary Bush." she sighed.

Chapter 5:
" Scaramouche." Galileo corrected her.
" Whatever." The newly named Scaramouche said.
She stood there, thinking her new name over for a few seconds. " Scaramouche!" she said waving her arms in front of her.She put her hands on her hips and grinned at Galileo. " You know, I kinda like it. It's sounds anarchic, almost like something I think they used to call a tune!"
Galileo grinned at her. He suddenly winced and clutched his head. " A tune... that's it!" he said suddenly, making Scaramouche jump slightly. Galileo walked towards her a said in a singsong voice.
" Scaramouche... Scaramouche? Will you do the fandango?" he asked, gesturing towards her.
Scaramouche narrowed her eyes and placed her hands on her hips. " Are you trying to get into my pants?" she asked.
Galileo blushed wildly. " No!" he cried. He then shrugged with a cheeky look on his face. " Well...maybe."
Scaramouche glared at him but she had that strange feeling course through her again.
"No!" he cried again.
Scaramouche raised an eyebrow at him and crossed her arms. " Well, what's doing the fandango then?" she asked.
Galileo shook his head and shrugged. "I'm not really sure. I think it was a dance once." he admitted.
" Uh!" Scaramouche said. " You mean like Ga Ga moves?" she said disgusted.
" No! I mean-" Galileo said but Scaramouche cut him off.
" Just excuse me while I puke!" she gagged. " Global Soft makes the music and adds the dance moves. It's all so robotic and rigid! And all the stupid Ga Ga kids on Planet Mall do the exact same moves! It makes dancing seem like some form of inhuman torture!" she spat at him.
" Well," Galileo began " I think that there was once a time when dancing and music was different. More free and expressive! You know..." he trailed off and Scaramouche stared at him as he held on arm out as if he was holding something and he moved his other arm in a windmill motion. He then began moving around on the dusty road and looked it he was strumming something. He then finished the odd display by falling to his knees and throwing his arms in the air.
Scaramouche blinked. " Well, that was the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen!" she said.
Galileo stood up and scuffed his shoe against the dusty ground. " It looks better when I'm holding a tennis racket." he mumbled.
Scaramouche let out a hollow laugh. " I bet it does." she said bluntly.
Galileo decided to change the subject. " Well, I think the fandango was once a dance you did with friends!" he said with a small smile.
Scaramouche eyes widened. " Friends?" she laughed walking away from him. She stopped and crossed her arms over he stomach, blinking furiously to get rid of the tears forming in her eyes. She looked down at her feet. " I've never had a friend before." she said in a tight voice.
" You surprise me." Galileo said bluntly.
Scaramouche glanced at him but couldn't come up with a retort except for. " But I'd really like one?"
She tensed up when she felt Galileo rest a hand on her shoulder. She turned around and stared into his large brown eyes.
" I would be your friend if you want me to." he said softly.
Scaramouche blinked up at him, she had a bunch of feelings coursing through her. Happiness, confusion, desperation and something else she couldn't put a finger on. She was about to answer him when a loud female voice shouted out.
" Let's get'em!"
Scaramouche let out a gasp as a man and a women suddenly came at them from out of nowhere.
The women, who grabbed Scaramouche strongly by the wrists then rapped a rope around her neck, had wild platinum blond hair with pink and purple streaks and dyed feathers laced through it. She was wearing torn purple shorts and a green, purple and black leather corset with black fishnet sleeves and torn fishnet leggings. The man, who pinned Galileo up against a broken down van, was very tall and muscular. He was wearing a ripped black shirt and a strange looking kilt. It looked like he was crushing Galileo.
" All right Ga Ga bitch. Tell us were you boyfriend got the words!" the blond women hissed, shaking Scaramouche angrily.
Scaramouche struggled angrily against the women's iron grip. " I aint' no Ga Ga girl and he is not my boyfriend!" she shouted.
" The words! Scaramouche! The fandango!" the woman shouted. She let go of Scaramouche with one arm and brandished a dagger at Galileo. " You've seen the secret texts! You been to the Heartbreak Hotel! Your a spy!" she spat at him.
Scaraouche's eyes widened. She stared at Galileo. There's no way he's a spy! Is there? she thought.
" N-no! I just heard them in my head! That's all!" Galileo cried out from the van as he struggled against the large man's grip. The man's eyes widened.
" Lies!" the women shouted at him, rushing forward.
" Oz!" the man said letting go of Galileo and standing in her way. He grabbed the woman by her arm and pulled her away where they spoke quietly.
Scaramouche edged over to Galileo and stood next to him, mumbling angrily and rubbing her neck.
" You okay?" he whispered, his eyes shone with worry as he rested a hand on her arm.
" Yes I'm fine!" she snapped at him, shrugging his arm off.
The woman suddenly spoke loudly. " If he's the one then why don't we test him and his chick!"
" Wait what are you talking about?" Galileo asked, while Scaramouche rolled her eyes.
" Oh so what I'm poultry now?" she asked. The woman ignored her.
" Test him." she said simply to the man.
The man and woman walked up to Galileo and pulled him away from Scaramouche.
" Wait! What are you doing?!" Galileo asked fearfully.
" Relax kid we're just testing you." the man growled.
" What? Testing me for what?" Galileo cried.
" We want to see if your the one! The bright star to lead us to the place of the champions! To lead us to the place of living rock!" the man said waving an arm in front of him.
" What?" Galileo asked in disbelief.
" But if you fail, we will kill you and your chick!" the woman hissed.
" I'm not his chick! Whatever that is!" Scaramouche shouted, waving her arms in the air.
The two just ignored Scaramouche.
The man stepped forward and suddenly did some strange movements and sounds, he then began to sing loudly in a deep voice.
Mama, just killed a man Put a gun against his head Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
The man and woman then turned and looked at Galileo. Scaramouche looked at him as well.
Galileo was standing there with a nervous look on his face. The man and woman exchanged a glance. Scaramouche began to get a little nervous.
Galileo suddenly took a deep breath and copied the man's strange movements. He then stood up tall with brave look on his face and sang loudly and clearly.
Mama, life had just begun But now I've gone and thrown it all away...
As Scaramouche stared, Galileo suddenly shook his head slightly as if he was coming out of a trance of some sort.
The man and woman smiled excitedly.
" He's the one!" the man said pumping a fist in the air.
The woman suddenly walked up to Galileo and bombarded him with questions.
“So what does it mean? Tell us! Who’s mama? Who’s been killed and why has it all been thrown away?” she asked talking very quickly.
Galileo took a step back, shaking his head. "I don't know!" he cried " I just hear them in my head!" he suddenly clutched his head in pain and sang very loudly at the end it came out in a squeal.
Mamma! Oooh!
The man and woman went up to Galileo and quickly shushed him.
" Thats it! You're coming with us!" the man growled.
" Well. She isn't!" the woman said, jabbing her thumb a Scaramouche. " She isn't the one! We don't need her!"
" I'm not going anywhere without Scary Bush!" Galileo said walking over to her and standing next to her.
" Scaramouche!" She cried, stomping her foot.
" Besides, who says I'm going anywhere Figgy! These people could be killers!" she continued.
" Oh we are killers baby!" the man said and the women nodded. " And thrillers and Bismillahs!"
The women grinned. " We're the resistance!" she said " The last hope! We are the Bohemians!". She turned to Galileo and Scaramouche and pointed at them.
" Now you have a choice. Are you ready to break free?" she asked.
" Do you want it all?" the man asked.
" To be a shooting star?"
" A tiger?"
" To defy the laws of gravity?"
" Are you ready to be champions?" the woman cried, throwing her arms into the air.
Galileo laughed and nodded, but Scaramouche wasn't so sure.
" Sounds kinda dull if you ask me." she sighed.
" What are you talking about?" Galileo asked, blinking at her as the man and woman stared at her strangely.
Scaramouche shook her head and laughed. " I was joking! Of course I want to come!" she shouted, punching Galileo playfully in the arm. He smiled at her and she grinned back.
The man suddenly looked at them both with a serious look on his face. " Now you have to understand. If you join us, become a Bohemian, there's no way back to Ga Ga land." he growled. " You will forever be an outcast! No longer a member of the con-human race!"
Scaramouche grinned. It was what she wanted her entire life. " Sounds perfect! Let's go!" she cried, throwing her hands in the air.
The women suddenly ran forward then turned around and pointed at Scaramouche and Galileo, singing in an soulful voice.
And you're rushing headlong, you've got a new goal And you're rushing headlong out of control
The man sang as well, belting out the words in a deep voice.
And you think you're so strong But there ain't no stopping and there's nothin' You can do about it
They both sang together, running around the dusty path.
There's nothin' you can do No there's nothin' you can do about it
The man sang again, throwing and arm in the air
No there's nothing you can,
Followed by Galileo.
Nothing you can,
Then Scaramouche.
Nothing you can,
Then the woman.
Do about it!
The all began to sing together.
And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal And you're rushing headlong out of control And you think you're so strong But there ain't no stopping
Then it was just Scaramouche and Galileo.
And there's nothing you can do about it!
Galieo pumped a fist into the air as he sang.
Heyyy Ohhh!!!!
Scaramouche threw her head and and sang loudly.
Ohhh yeah!
The woman walked forward and pointed at the man as she sang.
Hey! He used to be a man with a stick in his hand!
Scaramouche, Galileo and the man sang in response.
Oop diddy diddy, oop diddy doo!
The man then sang.
She used to be a woman with a hot dog stand
They sang back.
Oop diddy diddy, oop diddy doo
After that Galileo climbed up onto the top of the broken down van. Scaramouche ran up behind him and he grabbed her hand to pull her up onto it. The man and woman followed them as the women sang.
Now you've got soup in the laundry bag!
Then the man.
Now you've got strings, you're gonna lose your rag!
The women sang again as she leaped off the van, followed by the man, then Galileo, lastly Scaramouche, who was having more fun then she ever thought she could have!
You're gettin' in a fight and it ain't so groovy,
The man sang again, flexing his large muscles as the women watched him appreciatly.
When you're screaming in the night Let me out of this cheap B-movie!
The all ran forward, singing.
Headlong down the highway And you're rushing headlong out of control And you think you're so strong But there ain't no stopping,
The women pumped her fist in the air as she sang.
And you can't stop rockin'!
Scaramouche and the women stood back to back as they sang.
And there's nothin' you can, nothin' you can Nothin' you can do about it!
The were soon, going done into a dark tunnel. Scaramouche looked around, slightly uneasy and edged a little closer to Galileo.
" Were are we going?" she asked.
" We're going down babe! Woooh!" the women shouted.
" Get down!" the man called as he pushed Galileo forward.
Galileo started singing and doing this strange looking dance.
When a red hot man meets a white hot lady.
He pointed as Scaramouche as he sang the last bit, and she blushed a little, glad that the darkness his her pink cheeks. The man and women sang in the background.
Oop diddy diddy, oop diddy doo!
Scaramouche stepped up next to Galileo and began singing as well, throwing her arms into the air.
Soon the fire starts to burn and gets 'em more than half crazy!
The all sang again.
Oop diddy diddy, oop diddy doo!
Galileo spun around and sang some more.
Oh, now they start freaking everywhere you turn You can't start walking 'cos your feet got burned!
Scaramouche smiled at Galileo as she sang with her hands balled into fists, swinging her hips slightly.
It ain't no time to figure wrong from right Cause reasons out the window, better hold on tight
They all continued running down the dark tunnel, singing loudly.
Headlong down the highway And you're rushing headlong, out of control And you think you're so strong But there ain't no stopping and there's
They all stopped at a large door and stood in a circle. The man placed his hand in the middle of the circle and he sang.
Nothing,
The women placed her hand on top of his and sang.
Nothing,
Then Galileo.
Nothing,
And lastly Scaramouche.
Nothing!
They all broke apart and sang one last time.
Nothing you can, nothing you can Nothing you can do about it Headlong!
Scaramouche stared around in amazement at the large room they were in right now. It had drapes hanging all over the place and the amazing looking holograms. Wait... they weren't holograms!
" Where are we?" she asked.
The man and women smiled at Scaramouche and Galileo.
" Welcome to the Heartbreak Hotel." the man said.

Chapter 6
Scaramouche stared in amazement at the Heartbreak Hotel. It was huge! The were old ripped pictures with these strange looking groups of men on them. Giant ragged curtains hung all over and there was these boxes and and old chairs all over the place. Sitting on those boxes and chairs were some of the strangest and coolest looking people she has ever seen. But naming it the Heartbreak Hotel? Why name it something strange like that?
" Cool place but what a stupid name! A place that causes your heart to break." she muttered under her breath, hoping that the man, woman or any of the people sitting on the boxes wouldn't hear her.
" Who are these people Duff?" asked a man with strange looking hair. It was long and blond and a bunch of different shades of red, yellow and orange streaks going through it. His face was covered in dark makeup as well. " They look like Ga Ga's to me." he growled, looking directly at Scaramouche.
Scaramouche narrowed her eyes at him and balled her hands into fists. "I keep telling you people, I ain't no Ga Ga girl!" she shouted at him and everyone else in the room. The man and women raised their eyebrows at her and Galileo took a step towards her. The man with spiky hair just snorted and crossed his arms.
" I think I've found him. The one we've been looking for!" the large man and excitedly pointing at Galileo, who just blinked uncertainty at him.
" The Dreamer?" asked the long haired man in a low tone. He looked disbeleiving. " Just because he wears a leather jacket, doesn't make him Brian Adams!" The men and women on the chairs and boxes all nodded in agreement. " He looks like a Back Street Boy if you ask me! A clone from the Zone!"
Scaramouche felt Galileo tense up slightly next to her. She uncertainty placed a hand on is arm. She had no clue what a Back Street Boy was, but she knew all about the Boy Zone clones. He was nothing like them.
" He calls himself Galileo!" the large man said looking around at all the others, trying to convince them. It wasn't really working.
" Then he must have seen the texts. He's a spy!" cried a woman with long frizzy black hair and she was wearing a torn red and green plaid dress.
The blond woman stepped forward and spoke for the first time since arriving at the Hotel. " That's what I thought at first." she said.
Then the long haired man and the black haired woman stepped forward menacingly. " Let's kill em'!" the man shouted, brandishing a dagger, completely ignoring what the blond woman had said. The men and women all shouted and moved towards Galileo and Scaramouche.
Scaramouche balled her hands into fists and stood her ground. If they thought she would just give up without a fight, they were wrong! She stared at Galileo, who had taken a step back, wringing his hands and looking ready to run. What a baby!
The large man and the blond woman stood in front of Galileo and Scaramouche, holing their arms out. " If you want to get the Dreamer, you have to go through me!" the man growled. The group of people stopped and stared at them.
" He hasn't seen the texts, how could he?" the man continued " We guard them with our lives!"
The blond woman twirled a strand of hot pink air around her finger. " He says he dreams the words. Hears them in his head." she said.
" He calls his chick Scaramouche." the man said, pointing at her. Scaramouche blinked and put her hands on her hips. " What's with this chick business huh?" she asked, waving her arms. " Do I have feathers? Do I lay eggs?".
The entire room of people paused and looked at her behind. Scaramouche stomped her foot and growled at them.
" Hey lady!" the long haired man said pointing at her. " We beleived that there was once a time that when a cool dude wished to refer to his red hot mama, he called her his chick! It was a mark of respect!"
" Second only by bitch! Or slut! Or skank!" interrupted the black haired woman, jumping in front of the spiky man.
The long haired man crossed his arms at glared at the black haired women. " Do you mind Aretha!?" he asked in a angry voice. The black haired women then did something really strange. She hissed at him.
The spiky haired man shook his head. " We're getting off the point! All that matters is this guy is a spy!" he said pointing and Galileo.
Galileo glared at him. " Hey! I didn't ask to be brought here! I don't know any of you people or your stupid texts!"
The group of people all shouted angrily and moved towards Galileo once more. I guess he shouldn't have insulted their texts, Scaramouche thought as she stepped in front of Galileo and covered his mouth with her hand.
" What are these texts anyway?" Scaramouche asked, still keeping her hand over Galileo's mouth. Galileo shook her away.
The blond woman shrugged. " Fragments, nothing more. Stuff that us and other Bohemians found over the years. We get out names from these texts."
" I'm Aretha." the black haired woman said.
" I'm Oz, Ozzy Osbourne!" the blond woman said grinning.
" Avril Lavigne!" a red haired girl said, waving at them.
" I'm Clay Aiken!" said a blond guy in an exited voice.
" I'm Madonna. I'm a virgin." a man said, standing behind Galileo. He was wearing a pointy, golden bra. Galileo jumped and took a step away from him. Scaramouche snorted and covered her mouth with her hand.
" Prince!" said another woman with blue and silver hair.
" Jackson 5!" called a girl with chin length black hair with bright green streaks in it.
" Who are you?" Galileo asked, pointing at the long haired man.
" Me?" the long haired man said. " I'm the leader!" he bragged.
" Bruce Springsteen!" Galileo said excitedly.
" Burton Cummings..." the man mumbled, looking down at his feet.
" And who are you?" Scaramouche asked the large man, raising an eyebrow and crossing her arms.
" Who am I?" he asked as all the Bohemians grinned. " I'm the biggest, baddest, meanest, nastiest, most raging, rapping, rock and roll, sick-punk, heavy metal, phsyco bastard that was ever to get down funky! I am Hilary Duff!" he shouted, punching his fist in the air as the Bohemians cheered.
Scaramouche looked around at all the ripped, ragged, wild clothing that the Bohemians were wearing. It was so cool! " We did you get all this stuff?" she asked " You look fantastic!"
" We find them, we're scavengers." Oz said. " Hey... would you like a make over? You are a Bohemian now!" she asked.
Scaramouche looked down at her dull black shirt and skirt then at Oz's wild, green and purple clothing. She nodded hesitantly.
" How bout' some tights?" Oz asked.
" Oh, I hate my butt." Scaramouche said nervously.
" A short skirt?"
" I hate my legs."
" A crop top?"
" I hate my stomach... and my hips!"
" Well, how bout' some..."
" I like my arms, but not my hands!"
Oz blinked. " So we should get you something that accentuates you elbows?" She grinned and grabbed Scaramouche's arm. " Come on, we have loads of stuff out back." she said, pulling Scaramouche through a set of large doors. They walked down a set of dark stairs until they reached a room that was loaded with a bunch of bright, ragged clothing.
" Just pick out stuff that catches your eye and you can change in there." Oz said, pointing to another set of small doors." Then you can come back upstairs." she turned around and began to head back up the stairs. She then paused and looked back. " Oh! And welcome to the Bohemians Scaramouche." she said, grinning and climbing up the stairs.
Scaramouche turned and stared at the rows of clothing. She stepped forward and began looking through the piles of clothes until she pulled out a red, leather shirt with lace over the breast part of it, a red leather mini skirt and some torn fish net tights. She then found a pair of scuffed, red leather boots. She went and changed into the outfit. She then walked over to a box marked Acessories. She looked though the box and she chose a black bracelet, a red studded bracelet and a black choker with a tiny stone dangling off it. She put both bracelets onto the top half of both her arms and she rapped the choker around her neck. She then found a pair of black lace, fingerless gloves and slipped them on her hands. Lastly, she went over to a tiny cracked mirror with some make up in front of it and put on some red lipstick, touched up her eyeliner and put on some purple eyeshadow.
Scaramouche turned around and looked at her reflexion in a full length mirror. She gasped in amazement. She actually looked... nice. She turned around and began to make her way back up the stairs. She took a deep breath and stepped the door and back to the others.
" Ta da!" she said nervously, holding her arms out slightly. All the Bohemians cheered. " Oh shut up!" she said blushing. She glanced at Galileo and saw him staring at her with a strange, longing look on his face. She blushed an even deeper shade of crimson and looked down at her feet.
" You look amazing babe! Totally Rock and Roll!"Oz said putting an arm around Scaramouche.
" Yeah! You do look Rock and Roll Scaramouche!" Galileo said nodding. " Ummm, what's Rock and Roll?" he asked.
" What's Rock and Roll!" Burton asked, looking at Galileo as if he was an idiot. " Figgy baby, Rock and Roll is anything you want it to be!"
" It's sex!" shouted Aretha
" It's style!" Clay cheered.
"It's rebellion!" Avril said.
"It's freedom!" Duff growled, throwing his arm around Oz's waist and punching his other fist in the air.
All the Bohemians cheered and stomped their feet.
" Yeah... but what is it exactly?" Galileo asked as Scaramouche furrowed her brow in confusion. The Bohemians all quieted down and shook their heads slightly.
" We... don't really know for sure." Burton said, rubbing the back of his neck.
Oz then walked away from Duff and threw an arm around Galileo shoulder. " But we do believe that somewhere on Planet Mall, their are instruments that will bring back Rock and Roll!" she said excitedly. " And you are the man that will lead us to them!" she said, poking Galileo's chest.
Scaramouche blinked in confusion and stared at Galileo. How was he suppose to find these instruments? He barely knew who he was for God's sake!
Galileo was shaking his head and stepping away from the Bohemians and Scaramouche. " And how am I suppose to find these instruments? I don't even know what they look like!" he cried, throwing his arms in the air. All the Bohemians let out a disappointed groan.
" But I do!" Duff said, walking to the back of the room and bring back a strange looking contraption. It was a pole with a box attached to the end of it and metal strings rung over it. The box was hollow and had a hole in the middle of.
" Can't play it though." Duff sighed, shaking his head. " But Avril can!" he said gesturing towards the red haired Bohemian girl.
Avril stepped forward and began strumming the "instrument". She was playing this strange tune. The Bohemians where all cheering and snapping their fingers.
" Yeah Avril! You're not so complicated you skater girl!" Duff said throwing out his arms and accidentally grabbing Madonna's "boob"
"Ummm, that's my boob." Madonna said bluntly. Duff blinked and took a step away from him. " Oh sorry bout' that." he mumbled. Madonna just nodded and said " Respect." giving Duff the peace sign.
Duff then turned and faced Galileo and Scaramouche once more. " As I was saying, it's sweet, sweet noise and once you get that vibe, all you need is your baby!" he said, putting his arm around Oz's waist and looking first at Galileo, then Scaramouche.
Scaramouche blushed and glanced at Galileo. She was his baby? He was blushing as well and glancing at her then the looking down at his feet and pulling on the sleeves of his jacket.
" You see, what passes for music these days, is only used for money. Which is why it has no soul!" Duff said with disgust. " But when Rock and Roll started, you know why they did it?"
" Why?" Galileo asked with interest.
" They did it for their babies of course!" Duff said, slapping Oz on her bum. Oz grinned and punched him on his arm, before kissing him.
" They did it for a crazy little thing called love!" Oz cheered.
Duff then began singing once more, with the Bohemians snapping their fingers in the back.
This thing called love I just can't handle it!
Oz then joined in grinning and batting her eyelashes at Duff.
This thing called love I must get round to it!
Duff sang once more, rapping his arms around Oz and spinning her.
I ain't ready!
He put Oz down and they sang in unison.
Crazy little thing called love.
Oz began to sing again, with the Bohemians singing in the background. Scaramouche and Galileo grinned at each other from where they stood on the sidelines.
This thing (this thing) Called love (called love) It cries (like a baby) In a cradle all night!
Duff then sang, dancing around the room with Oz.
It swings (woo woo) It jives (woo woo) It shakes all over like a jelly fish!
They both sang together.
I kinda like it! Crazy little thing called love!
Duff then sang once more, while Oz danced around him. She swayed her hips and kicked her feet. He was watching her and smiling.
There goes my baby She knows how to rock 'n' roll She drives me crazy She gives me hot and cold fever She leaves me in a cool cool sweat
Oh yeah
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip And get on my tracks
Oz sang back to him.
Take a back seat, hitchhike Take a long ride on my motorbike Until I'm ready Crazy little thing called love
All the Bohemians where dancing around and cheering. Even Scaramouche and Galileo where doing some uncertain dance moves. Scaramouche couldn't help but laugh at the sight of Galileo shuffling around. She blinked and stopped dancing when Duff suddenly grabbed Galileo by his sleeve and shoved him in front all the others.
Galileo began to sing hesitantly and in a tiny voice. He was pulling on his sleeve.
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip...
Duff came up behind him and straightened his shoulders, giving him a slight pat on the back for encouragement. Galileo grinned and pointed at nothing, singing in a louder and more confident voice. Scaramouche smiled slightly as she watched him. He really was an amazing singer.
get on my tracks!
Scaramouche then stood rigidly next to Galileo when Oz shoved her forward. She began to sing, glancing around nervously.
Take a back seat,
Galileo grinned at her and sang the next verse.
Hitchhike,
Scaramouche smiled at him and felt a sudden rush of confidence when she looked in his brown eyes. She sang louder this time, holding her arms out in front her her and moving her hands as if she was revving a motorbike.
Take a long ride on my motorbike!
Scaramouche and Galileo then went back to back and sang together with the Bohemians singing in the background.
Until I'm ready! (Are you ready?)
Then they both turned and looked at Duff and Oz as they both sang back to the two teenagers.
Crazy little thing called love!
Scaramouche, Galileo, Duff, Oz and all the Bohemians began dancing around and singing together. Scaramouche laughed wildly when Galileo picked her up and spun her around. They were all flipping and kicking their legs up in the air and spinning around.
This thing called love I just can't handle it This thing called love I must get round to it I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love! Crazy little thing called love!
Oh yeah!
Galileo and Scaramouche stood next to Duff and Oz as they all held the last note as long as they possibly could. When they were finished Scaramoouched laughed and hugged Galileo without even thinking about it. They both blushed when they seperated.
Scaramouche couldn't be any happier. She felt like she finally belonged somewere. But all happiness has to end at some point.
" Well, I can't believe I'm finally checking into the Heartbreak Hotel!"

Chapter 7:
Scaramouche gasped when a bunch of police officers swarmed into the Heartbreak Hotel, followed by the blond man in the gray suit who had arrested her and Galileo in the first place. How did he find us? She thought as she took a step back.
" Commander Khashoggi." she heard Duff growl.
Khashoggi motioned with his hand and the police swarmed forward. An officer ran up to Galileo and pinned him up against a wall, pointing a laser gun at his chest. Scaramouche ran forward to help him but soon found herself pinned against the opposite wall, with a laser gun pointed at her neck. The Bohemians shouted and ran forward.
Khashoggi just laughed. " Incarcerate the rebels." he ordered.
A laser cage came down upon the Bohemians, forcing them together. Scaramouche growled and struggled against the police officer.
" Don't you dare!" he hissed at her, waving the dangerously hot laser in her face. She alsmost vomited when she saw the brute's eyes travel slowly up and down her body. " Wouldn't want to scar your pretty little face!" he snarled pressing up against her and grabbing one of her breasts.
Scaramouche gasped and spit in his face then stomped on his foot. " Pig!" she spat at him. He just grinned darkly at her and flicked the laser slighty.
Khashoggi laughed as he walked around the Bohemians and stood next to the struggling Galileo. " And now Galileo Figaro, I've captured you and your Bad-Assed Babe. Did you think you could hide from Gobalsoft forever?" he asked.
" No!" Duff shouted, running forward but burning himself on the cage.
" Don't waste your strength Mr. Duff." Khashoggi said. " No on has ever escaped the laser cage."
But Duff wasn't going to give up. Scarmouche watched with wide eyes as he shouted and broke though the cage. He stumbled out and gasped from the pain.
Khashoggi raised an eyebrow."Oh you got out!" he said, clearly shocked. " Well, good for you!"
Duff stood up tall. " You're never take the Dreamer while I'm alive!" he growled.
Khashoggi laughed. Scaramouche didn't like the look he had on his face. Even though she couldn't see his eyes through the sunglasses he was wearing, but she suspected that they gleaming maliciously.
" Well, we are going to have to change that won't we?" he said.
Khashoggi then motioned with his hand and Duff was attacked by a bunch of police officers. But Khashoggi made a mistake doing that. The officers who were holding Scaramouche and Galileo also jumped into the fray.
Scaramouche watched in horror as Duff fought viciously against all the police officers.
" Galileo, Scaramouche run!" Duff shouted. He then cried out in pain when a police officer shot him with a laser. Then another, then another. He fell to the ground.
" Noooo!!!" the Bohemians shouted, Oz was the loudest. She had tears streaming down her face.
Scaramouche just stood there in horror, until she felt Galileo grab her hand and pull her into a dark tunnel. Scaramouche heard Duff shout one last time. His final word echoed around the tunnel.
" GALILEO!"
***
Scaramouche was fighting the urge to let out a sob as she and Galileo stumbled through the dark tunnel. Duff was dead, killed by the police. The Bohemians were sure to follow. And she was certain that her and Galileo were not far behind. It was all too overwhelming. She suddenly felt claustrophobic in the tunnel, like she couldn't breathe. She ran ahead, ignoring Galileo's shout, and took huge gulps up the cool night air once the reached the outside of the tunnel. She was back in the old junkyard, where they first met Duff and Oz. She fell to her knees and clutched her stomach, retching slightly.
She jumped when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up and into Galileo's worried brown eyes. She quickly stood up a brushed off her skirt, trying to regain some of her bad-assed attitude.
" How do you think Khashoggi found us?" she asked in a shaking voice.
" They must have some way of tracking us!" Galileo said.
Scaramouche began to think about how they were able to track them. Galileo came up with the answer first.
" The hospital!" he gasped. " When they operated on our heads!"
" Oh no!" Scaramouche cried.
Galileo looked though the hair at the nape of her neck. " There! I think I found something!" he said.
" Cut it out!" Scaramouche said.
" What?" Galileo asked.
" Figgy, if they put bugs in our heads, they will track us down in no time! Cut it out!" Scaramouche reached for a piece of broken glass. " Use this!"
" Okay." Galileo said uncertainly. He parted her hair with one hand and she sensed his hesitation before he cut slowly across her neck. She squealed in pain when he pulled a small metal object from the cut on her neck.
" There! He had us from the start!" he gasped, holding out the small tracking device.
Scaramouche grabbed the bug from his hand the held it up to her mouth.
" Hello... PERVERT! It's a short sentence and the second word is off!" she shouted into it.
Galileo took the bug back from her and shouted into it as well. " YEAH!" He then threw it down on the ground and stomped on it. He then turned back to Scaramouche. " What's the first word?" he asked.
Scaramouche shook her head at him. " God Figgy, your such a geek!" she sighed.
" Okay, now me." Galileo said, handing her the piece of glass and kneeling down.
Scaramouche parted the brown hair at the nape of his neck, found where the bug was and got ready to cut it when...
"AHHHH! OH YEAH!" Galileo shouted.
Scaramouche raised an eyebrow at him. " It didn't start yet." she said. Honestly, he could be such an idiot sometimes.
Galileo shrugged. " Oh yeah." he mumbled.
Scaramouche quickly cut out the bug and Galileo winced slightly. She stared down at the bug. It must be a pretty strong micro transceiver, to be able to survive in human bodies for a few days.
"Quick! Crush that one!" Galileo gasped.
" What? A state of the art micro transceiver? No way!" Scaramouche said, walking away from Galileo. " I'll just activate the maximum negativity spectrum!" she said, pulling a bobby pin from her hair and fiddling with the tracker.
"What?" Galileo asked, confusion clearly etched on his face.
Scaramouche rolled her eyes. " Turn it off!" she snapped at him. Had he ever payed attention in school? She then placed it on the dashboard of the broken down van and let out sad sigh.
" We're all thats left Scaramouche." Galileo said from behind her. It was as if he heard her thoughts. She turned and faced him. He was sitting down on the back of the van. "The Bohemians are finished! The Heartbreak Hotel destroyed!"
Scaramouche sat down next to him. She looked up at the sky, it was covered in clouds, all except for on bright star. " Hilary Duff died to save us." she said. She glanced at Galileo. " To save you." she whispered.
"We're outcast Scaramouche. Cast adrift." Galileo sighed.
" I never really belonged anyway." Scamouche mused. " But with the Bohemians... I actually felt like I belonged somewhere. For the first time in my life... I don't hate myself." she mumbled.
" And I don't want to die." Galileo said. Scaramouche widened her eyes slightly. Galieo wanted to kill himself before? " I've found something to live for!" he continued.
" The Dream?" Scaramouche asked.
"You." Galileo said softly.
Scaramouche turned and found herself staring into Galileo's innocent face. She took in all of his features, his wide brown eyes, his mussed up brown hair, his high cheekbones, straight nose and soft mouth. That's when she realized that even though she only met him a few days ago, she cared about him deeply. Loved him.
Galileo's face had suddenly got a saddened look on it though.
" But we will be caught in the end." he said. "You know that, don't you?"
" Yeah, I know." Scaramouche sighed. " Probably killed."
They sat there in silence for a few minutes then Galileo suddenly spoke.
" I love you Scaramouche!" he said quickly.
Scaramouche blushed and felt extremely happy, despite the situation they were in. No one had ever loved her before, not even her parents. It all what she really longed for in the world, somebody to love.
" I love you too... Figgy!" she said happily. She frowned though when she saw Galileo's shoulders slump and he had an annoyed look on his face.
" You think that just once, you can use my full name?" he asked in annoyance.
Scaramouche's eyes widened. That's what he was annoyed with?
"Oh. I love you, Galileo Figaro. Though it still sucks!" she said with a smirk. She smiled at him and he smiled back.
" I know." he said. He then smiled softly at her " Then if I have you love, dying doesn't matter much at all does does it?" he asked.
He suddenly stilled. " Do you hear it Scaramouche?" he asked. " The music?"
Scaramouche frowned. " No. I'm not crazy like you remember?" she said.
Galileo smiled at her. " I always hear music... when I look at you." he said in a soft voice.
Scaramouche felt her face heat up and she looked away from him, rubbing her arm. " Shut up! You don't mean that..." she mumbled.
" No I do!" Galileo insisted. "I believe, that somewhere out there... someone is playing music just for us." he looked at her with a serious look on his face. "Don't you?"
Scaramouche blinked and looked up at the single star in the sky. " Yeah... I do." she said. She did believe that she faintly heard soft, sad music in the distance. She began to sing softly along with that music.
There's no time for us There's no place for us What is this thing that builds our dreams Yet slips away from us
Who wants to live forever?
She glanced at Galileo when he sang along with her.
Who wants to live forever?
Scaramouche let out a small sigh as she held the note beautifully.
Who?
She felt Galileo rest his hand on hers as he sang sadly.
There's no chance for us It's all decided for us This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever?
Scaramouche leaned against Galileo as they sang together.
Who wants to live forever? Who?
Who dares to love forever?
Scaramouche jumped slightly and stared at Galileo as he let out a long held note filled with pain as he sang the next line. She glanced down at his hand, which was gripping her thigh.
Oh, when love must die!
Scaramouche felt he face heat up when Galileo was staring at her with burning eyes as he leaned slowly towards her and sang.
Who wants?
Scaramouche tensed up and felt overwhelmed as Galileo leaned towards her. She jumped up and moved quickly away from him. She also felt hot, salty tears fall slowly down her face. She wasn't ready for any of this. She suddenly felt Galileo's hand on her shoulder. She turned around and faced him. He was staring at her sadly and he wiped away the tears on her face with a gentle hand. She let out a sob and ran into his open arms and he held her close as she sang.
But touch my tears with your lips!
She looked up into his eyes as he stroked her her cheek and sang to her.
Touch my world with your fingertips!
Scaramouche rested her head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat as they sang together.
And we can have forever! And we can love forever!
She looked up at Galileo again as he sang.
Forever is ours today.
Scaramouche leaned into Galileo's chest again as they both looked up at the star in the sky and sang together.
Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever?
Scaramouche sang and held the final note of the last word.
Forever is ours!
She let out a sigh as Galileo sang softly in her ear.
Who waits forever, anyway?
She looked up and into Galileo's eyes and leaned slowly towards him until their lips met in a sad, soft kiss. She then let Galileo lead her towards the old van and sit her down on the mattress. He sat down next to her and he smiled at her and she knew that she was ready. She rapped her arms around his neck and kissed him with more passion. Galileo closed the curtain. They both leaned back slowly onto the mattress, still kissing and Scaramouche rapped her leg around Galileo's thigh and he stroked her back. Oh yes, she was ready.
