McFly and Busted Adventures; Legends of The Seven Harmonies Chapter 3: Separated in Paradise

To celebrate the ongoing Busted Vs McFly tour, I have written a full length story which stars the boys from McFly and Busted going on an adventure to find and learn a song in the nine islands of Yggdrasil to find the treasure to save the world, meeting characters portrayed by Hayden Christensen who serve as Yggdrasil's guardians; setting them trails for them to earn the song. 

Here are some notes before reading my story:

It will also star my original character Dominic which I recommended you read his debut story here.

It will also guest star the Pokémon that the McFly and Busted boys and Dominic has used including those that are planned for future stories. You can read them starting from here 

I also recommend you to read McBusted: The Celestial Reunion and Love and McBusted meets Anakin Skywalker: The Forces of Light that beats the darkness where they have first meet Anakin and learn psychic powers which they will be using throughout this story. Dominic himself also have psychic powers which I do plan to cover more of for a future story. 

Here's link to the first chapter

Link to the second chapter 

The third chapter focus on James Bourne (who sadly is at the timing of this writing is unable to take part in the Busted Vs McFly tour due to ill health but I am still including him with this story was written long before and even then, he is still part of Busted/McBusted, has done a lot for McFly, he deserves better and no band members should be left behind so I am doing this for him. I hope that he'll make a full recovery soon) and Sam Monroe from Life as a House. While gathering the materials that are needed to build a house as part of their trial, James Bourne, Melody and Sam became separated from the others. 

Enjoy and I will be releasing each chapters weekly during the first couple weeks of the Busted Vs McFly tour so keep an eye on them. 

James Bourne – Separated in Paradise

Use this theme for Califordon

 Yo! It’s James Bourne from Busted! It’s about time that we Busted boys get to shine after two of the McFly guys get to have their fancy anime transformation and learn Seven Harmonies already (though to be fair, they are my friends with me being a huge fan of them and I do owe them for inviting me and Matt on stage for their anniversary tour, joining them as McBusted which opened the way for a Busted reunion).

Anyway, our next destination at Yggdrasill was a coastal island with mountains known as Califordon where we met the Princess of Califordon named Indigo. “Hello, dear travellers. What can I do for you?” asked Indigo. “We are looking for Seven Harmonies with my boy band friends who have the power to sing it. We believe that it’ll lead us to the treasure Ragnacho. Do you know of it?” asked Dominic.

“I believe that our guardian can help you all out with that,” said Indigo, who summoned an emo-looking young man from the gateways by the name of Sam Monroe. “Oh, our brave guardian Sam, we humbly request you to give brave travellers their trial to prove their worth to find what they seek. I know that you have what it takes to test their mettle,” said Indigo. “Well, it’s a good thing that I am not busy with my building, so I might as well get this over with,” replied Sam, glancing at us.

I‘m not sure if Indigo is overselling this but Sam said to us without making much eye contact, “Alright, you travellers, I don’t know who you all are but if you want to make yourselves, then find and gather the materials that you’ll find around Höðr Bay that’ll be used to build a house. It should be straightforward; even you all can do that.” Never had I expected us to build a house for our careers since we’re pop punk bands, not builders. But hey, we got a trial to complete, so we looked around Höðr Bay and found some wood, bricks, and concrete with Dominic helping to find the materials with his psychic senses.

The only required materials that we failed to find are stones. “Oh my, it’s not just any stones but only the finest quality stones at Baldr Caverns, which is where the song is said to be found. Sam, why don’t you escort our guests there?” asked Indigo.

Sam reluctantly complied, saying “This has better be worth my time and try not to get in my way.” I don’t know what’s with his attitude so I said to him “I promise that we’ll make it worth your time, providing that you’ll be a livelier host.” I guess I was rubbing him the wrong way with Sam saying “What’s with you? I say you better keep quiet.”

I’ve overheard Dougie saying “Men what’s his problem? I would expected a more exciting host” “Guess his attitude matches his emo phase” said Matt. I guess they said it a little too loud (which isn’t surprising of Dougie) with Sam saying to them “Do you both have a problem with me punks?!” I defused the situation and stood up for my bandmates by saying “Let’s put our differences aside, focus on the task at hand and get along shall we?” Sam just glared at us and moved on ahead. As we’re near the cave, we check with Melody to see if she’s doing ok. “Yes, I may not be used to this but I got to get out there for me to grow” replied Melody. “That’s the spirit. It’s just like with me when I was in the jungle” said Danny. “I know you can do this,” said Harry. “Just let us know if you need anything” I said.

Once we arrived at Baldr Cavern, we were already confronted by Cave Dragons who didn’t seem pleased that we had entered their territory. “Ugh, they’re in our way!” groaned Sam who swung his plasma-infused hammer at them known as Monotomorillonate Hammer but he missed his mark so we had to help him.

Use this theme for the McBusted boys working together

“And now this will blow you away!” I said as Danny and I fired our Psycho Wind and Muscle Blaster towards the Cave Dragons with my wind currents giving Danny’s attack a thrust. “We’re certainly taking this by storm James!” cheered Danny smiling while we were holding our hands. Sam seemed to be unsure with our mannerisms but he did his job by swinging with Monotomorillonate Hammer at the Cave Dragons. Try as I might but his sense of humour always makes me smile. Working with him reminds me of the McBusted MEAT days when we both played ‘Beautiful Girls Are the Loneliest’ which beautifully shows our talent. He owes me one when I helped him to pick the name McFly for his band.

The Cave Dragons fight by ambushing in the dark, swiping their huge claws at us so they are rather sneaky. Melody suggested attacking their claws. Tom and I followed her suggestion by combining our Spacial Cuts and Psycho Fire as soon as they were about to swipe at us. It’s like combining our brain power as one with Tom saying “Working together like this brings me back the times when we wrote for each other’s songs.” Ah yes, they do bring me back. Even if we’re different bands, I always enjoy the time when we write songs together. We smiled at those memories, blushing at each other.

I saw some of us are having trouble against the Cave Dragons firing their mud projectiles at them. Charlie knew what I was thinking and said “I’ll defend them while you take care of these dragons!” “Sounds like the plan there!” I said and I fired my Psycho Wind at the Cave Dragons to blow them away while Charlie defended my friends with his Magical Shield. It was good thinking of Charlie there and even if we had split before, I knew that it has made us closer than ever as we looked at each other.

Sam managed to slam one of the Cave Dragons onto the wall with his telekinesis but one of the Cave Dragons was about to dig its way towards him. But Dougie and I spotted that and fired our attacks towards the ground where it was digging which dug it out. “Now that’s what I call how to dig out a Dragon!” laughed Dougie. “It was right on target!” I said, laughing at his joke. Sam looked at us in awe as he comprehended our mannerisms. Dougie and I are alike in a way, coming up with good ideas while acting erratic.

More Cave Dragons fired their quakes towards us but Matt and I stopped them with our Psycho Quake and Land Explosion, allowing the others including my Pokémon including Gardevoir and Leafeon to follow up their attacks. “Alright, we got them James!” cheered Matt while patting our shoulders. Ah yes, we sure did Matt. You have always been there with me throughout Busted even during the split. It’s like you have never truly left me.

Some Cave Dragons attempted to hide in the dark and sneak up on us but Harry and I were one step ahead of them as we fired our Psycho Thunder and Healing Shot towards where they were hiding to defend the others from their sucker punch. “That worked out well didn’t it?” said Harry as we were gazing at each other. He’s someone who pushes me to do better and I know that I can keep pushing myself with music is in my blood.

Melody suggested attacking the stalactites. “Ready to give this a shot James?” asked Dominic looking at me. “I’m one step ahead” I said looking at him back as Dominic and I combined our brainpowers as we aimed our Psycho Spheres and Star Force Shocker at the stalactites which fell towards the Cave Dragons which either hit them or trapped them. Dominic would make a great songwriter and I would be happy to write with him. We cleared away the Cave Dragons, allowing us to proceed.

“So, how much longer until we find those stones you needed?” I asked. “The sooner that we keep focus without idle chitchat, the better,” replied Sam, who looked up ahead. “Could have been more specific there,” said Matt. “Yeah, and to be more sociable, too,” said Harry. Sam just glared at them. They do have a point, though. I wanted to ask him if there was anything on his mind, though I doubt that I’ll get anything out of him.

We weren’t the only ones who were in Baldr Cavern.  Idunn and Thor were fighting some Cave Dragons with their Miðgarðr mecha which resembled a human while looking for the song. “They are driving me batty!” yelled Idunn with her Miðgarðr slamming its foot on the ground which summoned a shockwave to knock them over. One of the Cave Dragons was about to ambush Miðgarðr but Thor spotted it and slammed his Mjölnir on the Cave Dragon to trap it on the earth. “I got your back Idunn. The sooner we can find the song, the better” said Thor.

Loki was by himself for his agenda. “This one half of the Binding Rokker is what I need for my goals,” he said, holding one half of the necklace. He then saw us making our way towards the chamber we were in. “So they come crawling in? I can’t risk them spotting me so it’ll be a good time for me to seal away the exits” said Loki who activated his Mistletoe bomb to make sure that we don’t follow him. He also said to himself “Guess I could have told those two though it’ll be more convenient for me this way plus this will teach them for their last two failures” as he made his way out.

The bombs caused rocks to suddenly fall from the ceiling which separated me, Sam and Melody from the others. “James! No!” cried Danny. If that wasn’t bad enough, the floor underneath them had given way, causing them to fall. Dominic used his telekinesis on them so that they made a soft landing.

None of us were hurt but we became separated. “What was that all about and where’s James, Melody and Sam?!” said Matt with concern. “Oh no! I hope they’re alright!” cried Charlie. They managed to reach out to me telepathically. I told them that we were alright but I had no clue where we were. “We’ll have to work our way until we meet up. Just say safe” said Tom. “Yeah, keep Melody safe too” said Dominic and he and the other McFly and Busted guys moved on ahead.

Use this theme for emotional moments

Melody was scared. “Will we get out of here?” she asked nervously. “Don’t worry, we’ll be fine” I said, reassuring her though the truth is that deep inside, I was hiding my fears of being separated from my bandmates. It reminded me of when I was stranded on the Caribbean Islands St Lucia during the lockdown which is where the inspiration for my second solo album Sugar Beach. It may sound like a nice way to spend lockdown but I was all alone, far away from my friends and family as I described in one of my songs Alone in Paradise. Being with my bandmates, doing what I love doing best means a lot to me and I can’t bear the thought of never being with them again in this strange place.

I wasn’t alone though with my Pokémon who could tell that I was getting anxious so they got closer to me to keep me comfort including Gardevoir, Leafeon and Pikachu. I then went over to Sam who looked at me and said “So this is what it’s like to have those close to you? I wish I had that.” Sam became open to me and said that he doesn’t have as many people close to him with his estranged family and his Father hiding his terminal illness from him when he was forced to help him to finish building a house (he works as an architect) before his death. “So I’ve been finding it hard to open and trust others who’ll only keep secrets from me so I find it easier to keep myself distance from others. It’s been years since I’ve finished building that house yet it doesn’t seem like I have moved on from that” said Sam sombrely.

“Sounds like you have it rough mate. Even if you were difficult, I’m happy to be your friend” I said warmly. Even Melody had the courage to speak out and say “I want to become stronger and to get to know more people, helping any way I can even with my autism.” Sam gave us a small smile and said “I guess I still have a job to do” as he led the way.

Idunn and Thor were caved in too. “Well, this is just great! We can’t get trapped here!” she cried. Thor stayed calm and said “Relax, I’ll get us out of here! We can use the Miðgarðr too!” as he used his strength to carry the boulders that got in the way. “We’ll better get going with those muscles of yours!” said Idunn who helped out with her Miðgarðr.

Used this theme for this section

Back to us, my Pokémon have helped us to make our way through the cavern including taking care of the Cave Dragons that got in the way (in self-defence of course) with Dragonite, Scizor and Flapple striking first with their Extreme Speed, Bullet Punch and Sucker Punch before they can ambush us in the dark. “Sucker punching them before they sucker punch us!” boasted I as I returned the favour by firing my Psycho Fire at the Cave Dragons.

 We spotted Sam having some trouble against one of the Cave Dragons, who shook the ground below him, making him wobble. So Meowscarada and I helped him by firing our Psycho Wind and Flower Trick. “After you, Sam,” I said. He seemed to appreciate that as he shoved the Cave Dragon with his force.

After that, we entered a room with multiple paths, which was rather troublesome. We could take any path and they’ll either lead us right to the others or cause us to get lost. It’s like a gamble but not the fun kind (of course, gamble sensibly folks). Melody was looking towards the far left path as if she smelled something and said “I can feel a slight breeze from the outside.  I say we should take this path.” “That sounds like the best bet” I said and we made our way towards the left path.

Melody then noticed the small stream and said to us “The stream...I remembered going past it before.” “Well remembered there,” I said, encouraging her. “You’re our only hope of getting us out of here,” said Sam. She seemed to smile with our complement and I’m thankful for her perspective which is something to go on.

However, we were attacked by some Cave Dragons with one of them swiping me with their huge claw, causing me to get knocked towards the edge. I thought this was it; I’m never going to be reunited with my band. But Sam has grabbed me just in time. “I ain’t letting you fall!” he said as he helped to pull me up while giving me an intense look. Thank goodness, my life was flashing before my eyes. The Cave Dragon that knocked me over was taken care of by Salamence and Hitmontop. “Thank, I owe you one!,” I said with Sam and I took out another Cave Dragon before it could attack my Pokémon with my Psycho Ice and Sam slamming his Monotomorillonate Hammer.

Once we resumed the path, Melody was still worried. “What if I am wrong and this is the wrong path?” said Melody. I was worried myself with all of those intrusive thoughts involving not getting out of there or never finding the others. But someone has to provide some hope and comfort so I put that aside and said “I know that we’ll find the others, we have to. As long as we keep believing, then we have to move forward.” That seemed to help her as we moved on ahead.

Meanwhile, Dominic and the other Busted and McFly guys were making their way through, fighting some Cave Dragons along the way. They have the same concerns too with Matt anxiously saying “James...where is he? He better be alright!” “We can’t afford to lose him. He’s a part of us” said Charlie. Dominic and the McFly boys helped to reassure them with Dominic saying “Don’t worry, I know he’ll be ok along with the others as they watch over each other.” “He’s a smart lad so I’m sure he’ll figure his way out,” said Harry. “No matter which bands we’re from, we’ll find him and the others in no time,” said Danny.

Charlie and Matt were comforted by their support and they reached a large room with a pillar surrounded by the stones that we’re looking for, a large hole where the fresh air was breezing through and a small stream though that’s where they have found some people but not the kind who they’re looking for. Sure enough, it’s Idunn and Thor with their Miðgarðr. “I bet you’re the troublemakers who caused the blockage!” said Idunn pointing at them. “I don’t know what you’re on about but get out of our way!” argued Dougie. “Yeah, we have friends to find!” added Tom. “As long as you’re in our way, then we can’t let you go” said Thor as they were ready for a fight.

Use this theme for the battle against Idunn and Thor

“And now, let's ready to rumble!” said Idunn who used the Miðgarðr’s mechanical feet to stamp the ground, releasing an earthquake using Raging Quake that caused my friends to topple over with Dougie landing on Danny. Bet that wasn’t a soft landing. “We’ll be the ones bringing you down here!” said Matt who tried to counter the Miðgarðr with his Land Explosion but Thor slammed the Miðgarðr’s huge mechanical feet on the ground which released a shockwave that countered Matt’s attack using Land Shocker.

“Hey no fair!” cried Dougie. “Sorry but I don’t play fairly!” laughed Idunn. “I’m all for playing fair but I’m not the kind who holds back so that Idunn can win” said Thor as the Miðgarðr was about to use Raging Quake again. Dominic had an idea and told the others to aim their attacks towards the legs. “I’m on it!” said Danny, firing his Muscle Blaster. “This better work!” said Tom, firing his Time Spheres. The attacks hit the legs which stopped the attack. “Alright! We’ll break that toy of yours!” boasted Harry who fired his Healing Shot towards the legs but Thor was one step ahead of them and used Land Shocker to counter the attack. So much for that plan as the boys became knocked down by the Raging Quake again. “Nice try boys!” taunted Idunn.

“This wasn’t as funny the second time round!” ranted Charlie. “I know, just like when we were in Japan and Danny was running naked” said Dougie. A bit too much information there though that’s Dougie for you unless he’s exaggerating. Danny was giving Dougie a particular look just like a mortified child who was witnessing their parent sharing their embarrassing story.

Once they got up, Dominic said “Looks like we better stay airborne if we were to stand a chance!” and levitated from the ground. The others did the same to avoid the Miðgarðr’s attacks, much to Idunn’s infuriation. “Alright! Try catching us now!” bragged Matt, firing his Explosive Sphere. But Thor had other ideas and said “I can see your plan but you have no idea what the Miðgarðr is capable of” and the Miðgarðr jumped on the ground which caused it to extend towards them. They couldn’t believe their eyes when the ground reached them as said by Harry “But how?! I don’t even...” and they were slammed down back to the earth.

“Ho! Ho! You think you’re flying fly when you’ll only come crashing to the ground!” taunted Idunn and she continued to pummel my friends with the Miðgarðr’s Raging Quake. Meanwhile, we were feeling the tremor ourselves with us walking on the path that is leading us towards the chamber which did not help us one bit with me tripping over and getting attacked by multiple Cave Dragons who were angry with the disturbance caused by the Odin Hunters Duo.

“No! I got to get back to my bandmates! They need me!” I cried as I was attacked by the Cave Dragons all at once. Rocks were falling towards me too.  At this rate, I’ll never reunite with them and they’ll lose with me for failing to help them. But that’s when the others got my back with Sam slamming his Monotomorillonate Hammer on the Cave Dragons and using his telekinesis to shove them away, Primarina firing its Moonblast at the Cave Dragons and Hisuian Decidueye firing its Triple Arrows at the boulders. Melody helped to pick me up though she didn’t have the confidence to turn into her Phoegon form yet to help to fight. The other Pokémon helped to defend her from the Cave Dragons and boulders including Corviknight and Grumpig using their tough steel wings and telekinesis to break or move the boulders, Accelgor and Huntail using Bug Buzz and Aqua Tail to take down the Cave Dragons while they were burnt by Lumineon who used Scald. 

“You go on ahead!” said Sam. “But what about you?” I asked. “You said you have friends waiting for you? I’m giving you that chance!” said Sam as he swung his Monotomorillonate Hammer at the Cave Dragons. My Pokémon also volunteered to stay behind to give Sam a helping hand with Gardevoir looking at me as if it’s her way to saying that they’ll be ok as they take care of them. So Melody and I rushed on ahead while we can. The ground still shook below us which hindered our movements (though I held onto Melody tightly) though I couldn’t afford to stop now. I have my bandmates waiting for me and I aren’t going to let them fall without my guidance. We need each other and nothing shall tear us apart!

Use this theme for the McBusted boys' Harmony Modes

We made it to the large room with the pillar where I saw my friends trapped. I wasn’t going to leave them any longer. We need each other and nothing shall tear us apart! I then became surrounded by pan indigo light which responded to my hope of reuniting with the others and my will to save them so it was my turn to experience this anime transformation and the first Busted guy to have a Harmony Form which is so cool men. My Harmony mode consists of an indigo outfit including a hoodie. How trendy!

With no hesitation, I went out there and saved the others, singing one of my Busted songs to summon musical notes to get them out from the Terra Protrude while damaging the Miðgarðr. “James! Thank god you’re here!” said Matt with relief and excitement at my transformation. “And the first one of us to have a Harmony Form!” said Charlie. “I shall use the power of music to aid you all!” I said, using my Harmonic ability that gives everyone extra movement that helped them to avoid the Miðgarðr’s attacks.

“What? How could they be this fast? Keep still will you?!” cried Idunn who tried to stop us with Raging Quake. “Alright! Now we’re doing it thanks to you James!” cheered Tom who dodged the Raging Quake. “We owe you one James, just like when you wrote with us” said Danny who struck the Miðgarðr using Kinesis Kick before Thor had a chance to block the attack using the giant hand.

Once my harmony effect wore off, we levitated from the ground to avoid the attacks. Idunn tried to catch up to us using The Miðgarðr’s Terra Protrude but I intercepted them with my gust of wind using Psycho Wind as I said “I’ll blow you all away!” “Now you can’t catch us!” taunted Harry, firing his Healing Shot at The Miðgarðr.

“I won’t lose just because one of you has this super fancy transformation!” cried Idunn in frustration. Thor was being resourceful and used The Miðgarðr’s hands to punch the ceiling above us which caused rocks from the ceiling to fall towards us. “Woah, the sky is falling!” cried Dougie exaggerating. But that’s when Sam and my Pokémon have arrived with them taking out the rocks for us or dealing damage to The Miðgarðr including Delphox firing its Fire Blast at The Miðgarðr, Hatterene using Psychic to move the rocks, Dhelmise slamming its Power Whip at the rocks and Leafeon using Leaf Blade to slice the rocks. “This is for all the racket!” said Sam who used his telekinesis to shove the rocks away and slamming The Miðgarðr with his Monotomorillonate Hammer “It’s good to have you all back in one piece,” said Dominic. Gardevoir nodded in response.

Thanks to their help, we were able to continue to weaken The Miðgarðr further including my Psycho Aqua (which I’ve also used to destroy the falling rocks). “And now for my grand finale that’ll end with a bang!” I said, using my guitar to unleash my ultimate attack; Ultra Starry Musical Blaster which finished off The Miðgarðr.

After Idunn and Thor escaped from the destroyed Miðgarðr, Idunn cried “Three losses in a row! How could I lose to the likes of you?!” “Because we’re that talented and keep it together, that’s what!” I said. Thor spotted the hole where the fresh air was coming from and said “Idunn, we can make our retreat from that hole for now.” Idunn decided to take that option but swears that she will get us back next time. I wouldn’t count on it.

We were glad to be reunited. “James, we thought we lost you there” said Charlie with relief as we all give each other a cuddle as if we couldn’t let go of each other. “Promise that you’ll never leave by our side again,” said Matt, looking at me in the eye.  “I’m glad that you’re all alright safe. For now on, we’re in this together forever” I said. After all, we Busted boys may have split up but our reunion was made possible, just like how pigs can fly and those McFly boys had their bonds tested but as they say, McFly is forever.

“This is where you’ll find Seven Harmonies. I wouldn’t give it you until you finished building the house but you earned this” said Sam who showed us the rock where the Indigo glow came from in the form of an Indigo Orb. “Alright, it’s time for you to learn the song,” said Tom. “Yeah, we’ll let you keep up with us this time round,” said Danny jokingly. It was indeed Busted’s turn to learn Seven Harmonies. I’ve learned the note that goes with it and the short, but uplifting lyrics that says “Look for the light within the darkness to prevail”. Maybe that’s how Danny, Tom and I have gained our Harmony Modes and I’m sure that’s how the others will too.

After learning the song, I saw Dominic who looked dizzy just like every time we learned the song. Something is definitely up. As I went to check over him, he said “I...I saw..blurry flames” said Dominic who felt confused. “I have a feeling that it could mean something. Maybe if we find more of the song, it’ll become clearer” I said analysing this. I then added, “But please, take care of yourself, Dominic”. He insisted that he’ll be fine though we all knew that it could lead up to something like a dark secret.

Once we made it out of the cave, Harry said “It feels so good to have fresh air again.” Sam said to us “Well, I guess it wasn’t half bad hanging out with all of you. Still, I suppose I have to build myself a lot more.” “I’m sure your Father will be proud on how much you have grown” I said which made Sam smile.

We then spend the rest of the day helping Sam to build a small house using the materials we have gathered, even though we technically passed the trial but we thought it’ll be our way to spend a bit more time with him. I wouldn’t say we were professionals compared to Sam, but we did a good job working together to construct a basic house, even Sam says so (though not without some accidents, including Danny dropping a brick on his foot, Matt tripping over a stone, and Dougie getting a splinter from a wood but at least we had a few laughs). Maybe it could be our recording studio. Having to be satisfied with it, Sam made his leave, wishing us good luck. It was a good experience.

Oh and Indigo have shown up and said “Oh thank goodness that you brave warriors have made it out alive! When I heard that there was an explosion at Baldr Cavern, I was so worried sick about you all that I could cry!” It was rather over the top of her but at least it does show that she cares. Dominic then asked her “By any chance, do you know what caused the explosion?” “I’m not sure but I thought I saw a young man coming out of the cave a minute after the explosion though it’s probably my imagination” answered Indigo. The stern looks on Danny’s face tell me that it seems to ring a bell to him. But we put that to one side for now.

As soon as we arrived back at the Mega McBus, I told everyone that it was Melody who led me and the others to them. “That was excellent of you Melody!” said Matt proudly. “Yeah, we couldn’t have done it without her,” I said. Melody smiled and said, “It feels so good to help.” “It shows how capable you can be,” said Danny. “Yes and I vow to continue helping you all so that I can get as strong as you all” said Melody. “I know it’ll make you stronger with us by your side” said Dominic encouraging her. Melody vows to help us more by reading the book that she has found, and working on translating the text to hopefully find out more of Yggdrasill’s mysteries. Until then, peace out.

Enjoy and I will be releasing each chapters weekily during the first couple weeks of the Busted Vs McFly tour so keep an eye on them. 

McFly and Busted Adventures; Legends of The Seven Harmonies

Tom Fletcher – Shattered Lies

Used this for Biophillicdom

Hi, I am Tom Fletcher from McFly! We McFly boys are currently on an adventure in Yggdrasill with the Busted boys. I still remember that I was actually meant to be in Busted but I got kicked out soon after I joined them. Grrrr! But hey, things happen for a reason as I’ve formed my own band though we were recently touring with Busted which is my chance to get back at them!... Though as a friendly rivalry, they are my close friends who inspire the best out of all of us.

Anyway, our newest adventure has already started with a blast with Danny the first one to learn Seven Harmonies and to obtain his Harmony Mode, making it as thrilling as my stories. We were on The Mega McBus on the way to the next Yggdrasill Island, trying to get to know Melody better though she was having difficulties interacting with a well-meaning but overeager large group at once, struggling to find the right words and making eye contact while constantly rustling her wings.

So we helped to make things easier for her by maintaining some space with a few of us talking to her at a time. “Sorry...I...don’t have many friends...only my boyfriend...who I got separated from...with some bad people chasing us” said Melody who appeared to sound sad. We felt sorry for her. “We’re sorry to hear. We’ll try to find him” said Danny gently. “And we’ll keep you safe,” I said. “Let us know if you need anything. I want to be your friend” said James. Melody seemed happy with that.

Afterwards, we have arrived at Biophillicdom. As the name suggests, it’s a city that is surrounded by nature which makes it beautiful. “Fascinating, I bet there are all kinds of wildlife living there,” said Charlie who was looking around with curiosity. “It’s good that there are cities that are doing their bit for Mother Nature,” said Dougie. We then meet up with the Princess of Biophillicdom named Saffron. “I am Saffron and welcome to our home where we Gatekeepers live in harmony with nature” said Saffron welcomingly. “It’s nice to meet you, Saffron,” I said. “Do you anything about the Seven Harmonies that my band friends McFly and Busted are trying to learn?” asked Dominic. “Why yes, I believe that our guardian Stephen Glass will guide you with what you seek” answered Saffron who pointed at what appears to be a journalist's office that is right next to a gateway surrounded by trees out of all things.

As we made our way there, Matt ranted “So the guardian is a journalist? He better not be one of those sleazy ones who write lies!” “Yeah, you have to be careful with what the press are saying these days,” said Charlie.  A Gatekeeper overheard and said “Hey! Don’t talk to our guardian like that! He saved our lives so you better give him respect!” Soon after they left, Harry said “Sounds like they worship their guardians”.

We meet up with Stephen and tell him that we’re after the Seven Harmonies. “If you want to find that song, then you have to enter Læraðr Forest and reach Ratatoskr Spring as part of your trial” said Stephen. “Now that sounds like an adventure. Are we up for it?” I asked. Everyone agreed (with Danny saying to Dougie “Remember not to run in the woods”). Stephen noticed our enthusiasm and said in a friendly, charming way (while swaying his hips to woo us I guess) “My my, I admire the spirits of you brave warriors. I’m sure you all will have no problem passing this trial.” “Why yes! We can get through anything together as one” said Dougie. “If only we have more people who are adventurous and optimist. For that I wish you all the best of luck my friends” said Stephen smiling at us.  I admit that I find myself blushing with his charismatic mannerisms.  Before we left, I briefly noticed that Melody appeared to be looking at Stephen’s desk.

Use this theme for the McBusted boys working together

Læraðr Forest was no walk in the park (or should I say woods) with many fierce Forest Dragons that got in the way. I found that they were tricky to deal with because they dodged my attacks with their swift movements and had huge leaf-like fans on their arms that they used as shields to block attacks. “Get out of our way!” I cried in frustration as I tossed my Time Spheres at them but one of them dodged it and the other shielded itself.

Melody suggested attacking them from behind while they were defending. I get her idea though I was wary if they would dodge while sneaking up on them. But it was Danny who ambushed it from behind using his Megaton Punch. “I got this one T-Bag!” said Danny as he was looking at me with his handsome smile, causing me to blush. Ah yes, that’s Danny for you. I still remember back in the boy band audition when we first met. He thought it was a rock band audition but I was amazed at his talent so we connected which made us inseparable as fellow guitarists and vocalists ever since. He seemed happy to see me smile too.

I still had trouble keeping up with their fast movements. Melody had an idea though. “Try...using the trees to slow them down,” she said. James helped me out with that and said “Hey, let me lure them in for you.” I agreed with him as he called to them “Hey Dragons, come and face me!” and ran towards the trees. I noticed that the Forest Dragons were slower as they dodged the trees, giving me a chance to take them down with my Spacial Cuts (blade like projectiles that are made out of space). I owe it to James even if we’re from different bands just like when he was the one who helped with the creation of McFly and raised us to fame by joining their shows as Busted’s support act. We smiled at each other with our teamwork working out.

The Forest Dragons were no slouch with their attacks including firing a blizzard of leaves which blew me over. But Charlie rushed to my aid who shielded me with his Magical Shield. “All yours Tom!” said Charlie as we have our eye for each other. I admire him for his different style of writing that we can learn from each other.

The Forest Dragons also fire seed-like bombs which intercepted my attacks. Men fighting them is a pain but Dougie helped me out by firing his Mind Spheres while I was attacked. “We may not be able to tame these dragons but we can kick their butts!” said Dougie. I laughed at his quirky humour that makes him fun to hang around with, especially with our similar taste in movies.

Still, I wanted to do better as it felt like I was relying on my friends without using my talent as much. So I got the idea from Melody earlier and attempted to sneak up behind one of them while my Pokémon were distracting them including Gallade, Jolteon and Lucario. Right when I was about to attack, however, it turned its head and spotted me. But Matt came by and used his mind to summon an explosion. “We got this one Mate!” said Matt. In return, I followed up the attack with my Time Spheres. I felt a little down that it didn’t work out but I was grateful to Matt as I looked at him with appreciation for his bold style which blends him with his talent.

I had an idea of using my Time Stop to slow down The Forest Dragon’s movements. It was working which helped my Pokémon including Pikachu, Blaziken and Kommo-o to keep up with them but I overused Time Stop to the point when I became fatigued. I was about to fall to the ground but Harry grabbed me and restored me with his Miracle Heal. “Here, let me take care of them” said Harry who took them out with his Healing Shot. I was grateful  of Harry for his support that makes me feel at ease even if he drives me crazy at times with his competitive and brash sense of humour he still has a heart of gold.

The Forest Dragons aggressively fired their leaves at us which is like being blown by a huge gust of wind. “Um, try to repel their attacks?” asked Melody.  I was blasted by the leaves that I couldn’t think how to but Dominic helped me out by repelling them with his telekinesis. “Ready for the curtain call Tom?” he said, humouring me which made me blush.He is full of amusing puns and I bet he got the idea from watching the musical plays that I’ve written based on my books. It’s good to know someone as talented as us. Of course, I finished the job by firing my Astro Beam (a laser beam attack made out of space).

With the Forest Dragons fleeing in defeat, we were able to make our way to Ratatoskr Spring. As I was looking back at our battle, I couldn’t help but feel that my performance was sloppy. Maybe I wasn’t cut out to slay dragons. Still, at least we worked together to send them packing, just like Power Rangers Megazoids during the McBusted days.

Putting it aside, we made it to Ratatoskr Spring which resembled a small pond shaped like a squirrel yet we looked everywhere and couldn’t find the song anywhere. “This is Ratatoskr Spring isn’t it?” said Danny who was confused. “Where’s the song?” cried Dougie. “Something is not right here,” said James with suspicion. “Don’t tell me that we came all this way for nothing?” I said frustratingly. Melody spoke up and said, “We should...turn back.” “You’re probably right about that. I think we should clarify with Stephen about this” said Dominic.

So we quickly made our way back to the office and told him that we couldn’t find the song. “Oh, I am very sorry. I guess I got it mixed up. What I meant to say is that you’ll find Seven Harmonies at Fáfnir Temple located at Forseti Mountain at your right” said Stephan. “Are you telling the truth?” asked Harry. “We have to fight those dragons for nothing!” I said. Stephan looked hurt and said “Why do you think I am lying to you? I merely got the locations mixed up with me working long hard with my journalism that’s all” We looked at him for a moment before making our way towards Fáfnir Temple (though I thought I saw Melody for a brief moment who looked like she wanted to speak up).

Used this theme for this section

We didn’t encounter any dragons when we got to Fáfnir temple which is shaped like a dragon but there were many traps that gave us trouble. It’s just like an Indiana Jones movie which I would find thrilling except that we’re the ones receiving the traps including arrows that were shot from walls, sliding guillotines (the other McFly and Busted boys quickly dodged or ducked from them, worrying about their hairstyles being chopped off) and...yep, a giant boulder that was chasing us. I tried to help but my efforts were foiled each time including missing my attacks at the arrows, the guillotines sliced my attacks and of course, our instinct where to run from the boulder.

But the others helped me out with my Pokémon including Vivillon, Tyhplosion, Escavalier and Alcremie fighting against the arrows with their Bug Buzz, Eruption, Iron Head and Dazzling Gleam, Beheeyem and Skeledirge using Psychic to held the guillotine and Torch Song to destroy the guillotine respectively and Gallade using Psyblade to slice through the boulder.

Again, I was grateful for their help but I wanted to come in use. We come across this puzzle which involves lots of mirrors with reflecting lights and an orb on top of the door which I bet is where we’ll find the song. “It looks like we have to connect the lights to that orb,” said Danny. “That sounds easy enough so let’s get this over with, the sooner the better!” I said so I took the lead in directing everyone to move the mirrors to connect the lights to each of the mirrors. It was seemingly working well with Harry saying “Aye aye Tom, taking charge just like for our band though bet I can do just as well.”  “You’re the man for this,” said Charlie.

I was the one to move the last mirror towards the orb just as the other mirror lights were connected to it. However, various traps were fired at us instead including flamethrowers, cannon balls and arrows. “Huh? But we moved all the other lights didn’t we?” I cried. “Maybe it was a booby trap,” said James. My Pokémon helped to repel the traps including Starmie and Gastrodon West Sea firing their Hydro Pump and Scald and Veluza firing its Aqua Cutter but they were coming in so quickly. Melody then noticed that there was another mirror that I’d missed which was hidden in the dark corner. She was the one who moved that one towards the one I’ve moved which turned off the traps and opened the door.

Use this theme for emotional moments

“Good for you to spot that Melody,” said Dominic. Melody seemed happy to help out. I thanked her for that but I couldn’t help but feel annoyed at myself for burdening the others including with that trivial mistake of missing out that mirror. Maybe I wasn’t cut out for adventuring. I thought about the characters that I’ve written for my stories including the Christmasaurus series, Creakers and Space Band and how they were able to overcome impossible odds. Why can’t I be like them? It feels like I don’t live up to my stories and I’m lagging behind. I guess I’m better off using my talent with song or storywriting.

 If that wasn’t bad enough, we couldn’t find Seven Harmonies anywhere. “This is the right place isn’t it?” said Danny doubtfully. “Looks like we’ve been duped again” concluded Charlie. “I’m starting to think that there’s something fishy about Stephen,” said Dominic.  Well, we did actually find something which is what appeared to be an old textbook underneath a statue. Melody seemed to be taking an interest. “I think it’s about our history. I like to...read it” said Melody. “Yeah, it would be fascinating to see what it’s about,” I said encouraging her. “I suppose it’s our consolation prize but it may come in handy,” said Dominic. Just as we left, Loki who was monitoring our attacks from his Flying Mistilteinn said “How interesting. I happened to record the transcript in my data including the other half found in Saintdom.”

Once we made it out of Fáfnir Temple without incident, we made our way back to the city with me ranting “Stephan has lied to us twice, giving us all the trouble! I shall give him justice!” Some Gatekeepers overheard us and cried “How dare you talk poorly about our Guardian! He would never lie!” “Yeah, he is kind to us and brightens up our spirits!” said another Gatekeeper. “He works hard on those articles that enlighten us so you better give him respect!” said the other Gatekeeper. The others stood up for me with Dougie arguing “Oh yeah? Then how do you explain that we couldn’t find Seven Harmonies in the two places that we were supposed to look?!” “This makes him as shady as he comes!” added Matt.

 I don’t know how someone like Stephan gets to be a guardian for Biophillicdom. What do people see in him? Lying is anything but heroic. I bet he used his wits to pull the wool over their eyes. We noticed that Melody was covering her ears and hiding behind us trembling so Dominic helped to stop things from escalating and calmly said “We’re just going to clarify with Stephan. For now, let’s reserve our judgement.”

We weren’t the only ones to be deceived by Stephen. Idunn and Thor were fighting against some Mountain Dragons with their Jǫtunheimr at Forseti Mountains. “He lied to us! That brat is going to pay!” cried Idunn. One of the Mountain Dragons fired their rock projectile at the Jǫtunheimr which caused Idunn to fall from her cockpit. Thor grabbed her in time to safety and went out of the Jǫtunheimr to physically deal with the Mountain Dragon with his punches and his large hammer known as Mjölnir. He then grabbed it and tossed it to the ground. That was enough for the Mountain Dragons to back off.

“Are you alright Idunn?” asked Thor. “I can take care of those beasts myself,” said Idunn. “Idunn, I swore to protect as my only friend with others intimidated by my muscles. I trained to stand up for myself from bullies, only to scare away others” said Thor. “Well I suppose I appreciated you being one of the few who takes notice of my brilliance yet my family have little money to go on which is why I became a treasure hunter” said Idunn with a small smile. “I swear that I’ll find you all the treasure in the world to save you from debt,” said Thor. “As long as you serve me as my bodyguard, then I’ll allow you to have a fair share of a treasure or two,” said Idunn.

Once we marched our way to Stephen’s office, he while putting on his innocent act asked “Are you mad at me?” “We are jolly well so with you lying to us twice!” I exclaimed, slamming his desk. “Do you even know where Seven Harmonies is yourself?” asked James. Stephen seemed hurt and said as if we personally attacked him “I don’t know what you’re talking about, ok? I didn’t do anything wrong! They are the real locations for Seven Harmonies!” I wasn’t going to be fooled by him any longer and said “Look at me...and say that again.” Stephen looked at me in the eye, saying “They are the real locations for Seven Harmonies!”

“Yeah right, you’re saying that there are two locations for the song?” said Harry. “I’m telling the truth! You all need to look harder!” answered Stephen. “Believe me, that’s what we did yet we have gone through a lot of trouble going on a wild goose chase all for nothing! You serve as your people’s guardians from another world yet you don’t act like one!” I boldly retorted. “And why not?! People like me so doesn’t that make me a worthy guardian? I didn’t do anything wrong!” argued Stephen. “Guardians are supposed to protect their people, using their abilities to help them in their time of need; that’s what people should look up to. You on the other hand only serve yourself with those fabrications while making yourself look good!” I said, lecturing him. “I didn’t do anything wrong!” cried Stephen who continued to play the victim. “I really wish you stop saying that!” I snapped. Maybe it was my frustration earlier but I was really letting it all out. The others were watching me with awe, seemingly impressed by how I stood up to Stephen (though Melody seemed uncomfortable).

Use this theme for the battle against Idunn and Thor

Suddenly, the windows were shattered by Idunn and Thor, using their Jǫtunheimr’s giant mace. “My office! What’s the meaning of this?!” demanded Stephen. “It appeared that you Pretty Boy have lied to us about finding Seven Harmonies and we Team Odin Hunters don’t take nicely to those who deceive us!” said Idunn. “But I am telling the truth! It’s that you haven’t looked properly!” claimed Stephen. “Yeah right! I bet you’re hiding the song in this very city and I won’t rest until I find it myself while making you pay!” said Idunn and proceeded to go on a rampage at Biophillicdom City by smashing her Jǫtunheimr’s mace everywhere. The Gatekeepers were fleeing for their lives so we all went out there to save them. Thor didn’t seem to agree with Idunn rampaging the city but he went along with it anyway.  I better not screw up this time with people’s lives at stake even if they were hostile to us.

Facing Jǫtunheimr was far from easy though with its giant size. Idunn uses its mace offensively by thrusting it towards me and the other McFly guys and others as well as the nearby buildings while Thor uses the mace to block our attacks including from the Busted guys and the others. “What such a giant abomination!” gasped James after his Psycho Thunder was reflected by the mace. “It’s like a giant Kaiju attacking the city” said Dougie who narrowly avoided the mace.

“You worms better flee for your lives!” said Idunn as we worked on helping to protect the others including Danny restraining the Jǫtunheimr with his super strength, James and Matt using their Psycho Wind and Land Explosion  to slow down the Jǫtunheimr’s tracks to help my Pokémon to attack it including Gallade using Psyblade, Jolteon and Pikachu using their Thunderbolts, Gourgiest Super Sized Form lashing its Power Whip, Frosmoth firing its Blizzard, Whiscash charging in with its Liqudation and Maushold bombarding The Jǫtunheimr with their Population Bomb, Charlie and Harry shielding the Gatekeepers, Dougie trying to use his Puppet Manipulation to control the Jǫtunheimr and Dominic using his telekinesis to save the Gatekeepers from the falling debris as knocked over by Jǫtunheimr.

I helped out too by using my Time Stop to help the Gatekeepers to get to safety as escorted by Saffron and to provide an opening for my friends to attack Jǫtunheimr. Meanwhile, Stephen was confronting Idunn and Thor saying “Both of you stop this now!” “I’m sorry but this is what you get for lying to us” said Thor. “I’m going to smash that pretty face of yours!” said Idunn mockingly as she swung the mace towards him.

I was about to use my Time Stop but I forgot that overusing it makes me feel fatigued which made Stephen open. Saffron pushed him out of the way in time but her legs were just about hit by the tip of the mace and she fell and sprained her ankle (Dominic helped to escort her to safety).  Stephen watched in horror as the mace shattered his office. I felt guilty that it was something that I could have prevented with my Time Stop. I guess I felt sorry for Stephen even if he lied to us.

Use this theme for Melody's transformation

If things couldn’t get any worse, Melody appeared to be distressed, being overwhelmed and overloaded with the chaos and the noise from the frantic Gatekeepers and smashed buildings which caused her to become surrounded by the powerful aura and to our surprise, she transformed into a draconic Phoenix-like monster. “Melody?!” I called but she wouldn’t respond and go on a rampage, not only aggressively attacking the Jǫtunheimr by charging it head-on or firing her fiery-orb-like projectile but also the surrounding buildings including the rest of Stephen’s office with only his desk remaining.

“Melody? What’s wrong?!” cried Danny with concern as we impulsively approached her. “Can you hear us Melody?!” called Harry but she repelled us by unleashing a fiery breath at us before proceeding to attack Jǫtunheimr. “What is this angry bird?!” cried Idunn as she fell off her seat upon impact. Melody used her beak and talons to break the glass but Thor in self-defense held Melody with his bare hands to restrain her. “I’m sorry to do this but I have to protect Idunn!” said Thor who trusted her away.  

“Melody...she is in pain on the inside” said Dominic sorrowfully who can sense how she is feeling. We can understand that. It’s like she’s unable to tell between friend or foe with her beastly instincts taking over.  “It’s a monster!” cried one of The Gatekeepers witnessing Melody who continues to fight Jǫtunheimr and damage the buildings. I know she isn’t a monster and didn’t mean any of this. “Stay away you beast!” cried Idunn as she swung the Jǫtunheimr’s mace at Melody, causing her to crash down.

We went over to help Melody but I stood there, unsure what to do. I mean, I want to help Melody and to stop Idunn and Thor from rampaging but all of my plans have failed. The others were struggling too with Dominic unable to restrain Melody with his telekinesis (same with Dougie with his mind), Danny tried but failed to hold the mace with his super strength and Charlie and Harry’s shields shattered by the mace.  

James called out to me and said “Tom, help us out here!” “But what I can do? I’ll only let you all down! Trying to calm down Melody and stop this thing is impossible!” I cried. “It doesn’t matter; what’s more important right now is that we work together to turn this around!” said Matt. “Sure it may not have worked out well for you but we appreciated your help which is better than nothing” said Harry. “Tom, you have been by my side as a fellow guitarist and vocalist. It wouldn’t be the same without your talent” said Danny. “Yeah, I always appreciate your talent and creativity and I know you can make use of them here,” said Dominic.  “Even if you were kicked out of Busted, show me what you can do as a worthy adversity in McFly” said Charlie. “We all make mistakes but we never give up and keep on trying” said Dougie.  

I was uplifted by my friend’s encouragement, reminding me that I can be talented as my passion for making music shows no matter what difficulties we faced but it also reminded me how impossible is only in your mind which is what I have said for my Christmasaurus story. The characters that I have written do face struggles but they never give up and believe which is how they overcome any difficulties and earn their happy ending. It’s about time that I do the same.

I’ve sent out my Pokémon to help the others to keep Melody distracted (but do not attack her and to fight Jǫtunheimr) with Alcremie blinding her vision with Dazzling Gleam, Jolteon slowing her down with Thunder Wave, Gallade using Close Combat on the mace and Lucario firing Aura Sphere at Jǫtunheimr. Gallade looked at me as if it’s his way to telling me that they’re willing to follow my orders.

I went over to Stephen was crouching down at his desk, lamenting “My office! It’s gone!” I said to him “Hey Stephen, why don’t you try to use this chance to become an actual guardian?” “But what can I do? You all have these fancy powers of yours! I was only brought here after losing my job back in my world. I thought being a guardian in this world would make me look good!” cried Stephen. “You may have had us but maybe being brought here gives you a chance to turn it around, showing that you can be the guardian that people look up to. Why don’t you use that chance now?” I asked.

Stephen looked at me as if I was getting through to him. “Those people...did give me approval back when I was first summoned to this world after doing something to save them. Maybe I could do that again” he said. “Right, now’s your chance to prove that you can turn over a new leaf and actually get out there for your people,” I said giving him some encouragement.

Stephen got out his plasma-infused spear-like weapon from his desk which reminds me of a Lightsaber. It was known as Spinal Spear. “I’ve found this when I’ve first arrived here,” said Stephen. That gave me an idea. “Why don’t you use it on that giant robot’s legs and arms? That could hinder its movements” I suggested. Stephen followed my idea and ran up to Jǫtunheimr, slicing the legs with his Spinal Spear and leaping up to slash the arms.

“Ho! Ho! If you’re thinking of slicing off my Jǫtunheimr’s arms and legs, then it’s made out of sturdy material so that isn’t going to work!” taunted Idunn. However, the arms and legs were damaged which slowed down Jǫtunheimr’s movements so it couldn’t move as quickly or swing its giant mace as much, helping my friends to have an easier time dodging or attacking it. “Alright! The bigger they are, the harder they fall!” cheered Dougie who attacked Jǫtunheimr with his Sparkle Flash. “Now you’re making yourself useful here,” said Matt. “It was your friend who came up with that,” said Stephen who helped to defend them from the cannons with what it appears to be his telekinesis that resembled the force like Anakin’s. “See that Tom, this shows that you can be creative and talented” said Charlie praising me. “Yeah, that was good thinking of you,” said Dominic.

This shows that I still have it in me though we’re far from done yet with Melody still unwillingly going berserk and Jǫtunheimr continuing its rampage (and boy, Idunn was not pleased with Jǫtunheimr’s movements slowing down. She’s slamming down its hands as if she was throwing a tantrum). It may not be easy but I got to do this to help out my friends including Melody and to protect this city, no matter how impossible it may seem.

Use this theme for the McBusted boys' Harmony Modes

I then became covered by a glowing yellow light that came from Stephen’s desk as responding to my resolve. To think that Stephen had the Seven Harmonies all along! More importantly, I have obtained a yellow pop-punk outfit style including a hat which makes it my Harmony Mode! “Alright, Tom! You and me are in harmony together!” cheered Danny. “You got that right and I shall use it to save the world one song at a time!” I said as I sang one of my McFly songs to summon some soothing music notes to Melody which helped to calm her down, turning her back to her human form. Dominic prompted the others to escort Melody from the battle field but also to give her some space. Danny, Harry, James and Matt fulfilled that request.

My singing has also helped my friends to deal critical hits at the Jǫtunheimr (just like with my Pokémon). It was wobbling as if it was weakened. “No! No! No! We can’t fail these pop stars with those power-ups!” cried Idunn. Thor remained calm and said, “Don’t worry. As long as we have the Jǫtunheimr’s mace, then we still have a chance”. Idunn promptly slammed it towards my friends and nearby Gatekeepers but Stephen stopped it with his force, causing the Jǫtunheimr to slip backwards. “You saved us Stephen!” said one of the Gatekeepers. “We can always count on you!” said another Gatekeeper. “See? Isn’t it better to do something good than writing lies?” asked James. “You do have the potential to have some good in you,” said Dougie. Stephen seemed to be moved by actual praises.

I happened to be behind Jǫtunheimr and had an idea that came to my head. “Everyone, attack the mace directly behind!” I called. “You got it!” said James as they all attacked the back of Jǫtunheimr with me firing my Time Spheres. This (along with Stephen weakening it earlier) caused the mace to break off. “What?! How dare you brats damage the merchandise!” screamed Idunn. “We still got this!” said Thor, firing the Jǫtunheimr’s cannon balls. I helped to destroy them with my musical notes, saying “Impossible is only in your mind!” which helped the others to have an opening to deal further damage to Jǫtunheimr while dealing critical hits.  “All yours Tom,” said Matt which was my cue for the curtain call with me using my guitar to unleash my Ultra Starry Musical Blaster, fully destroying the Jǫtunheimr. Idunn and Thor made their retreat with the former swearing that she’ll give us payback next time.

“See Tom? You truly shine with your talent” said Harry. “Been a big help to us here!” beamed Danny. “I have you all to believe in me, reminding me of that when it seems tough” I replied smiling at them. Stephen went over to me and said “Helping others...it did feel good”. “You kept the song hidden from us all this time! It’s all part of the trial or were you lying to us?” I said. “I suppose I wanted it for myself but...you were the one who encouraged me to get out there even after everything. Maybe all this time, I wanted validation from others though I can only do the way I know how. I guess I could...start things over” said Stephen. “Well I suppose we’ll give you a chance to start things anew. For now, I have a song to learn” I said. “Yeah, you earned it my friend” said Stephen looking at me with intensity as if he have gained some kind of connection. I know he does this sort of thing for us to win him over yet he actually does this time round.

Anyway, I’ve learned the next part of Seven Harmonies including the way it is supposed to sound and one part of the lyrics which goes; “Look towards the light; even in the darkness moments”. After I’ve reverted back from my Harmonic Mode, Saffron in clutches has turned up and said “We thank you Brave Warriors for saving our home. We’ll work together to rebuild it and I wish you all good luck”. Stephen decided to take responsibility and help Saffron and the Gatekeepers to clean up the mess. Oh and Dominic appeared to be blanked out while I was singing the song just like when Danny played the song. I went over to him to see if he was ok. “I...I thought I saw something but it’s probably my imagination” replied Dominic.

Use this theme for emotional moments

For now, we went back to the Mega McBus and Melody apologized for her actions. “I’m sorry; I was so overwhelmed that I couldn’t control myself. You all became hurt because of me” said Melody sadly. We all understood her with Danny saying “No no, it wasn’t your fault.” “We’re just glad that you’re ok,” said Dougie. “I can tell that it was getting too much for you so you’re not to blame” said James. “I assure you that we’re fine as long you are,” said Matt.

Melody explained that she is part of a special kind of species known as The Pheogons. They are said to have the ability to sing just like us (although Melody claimed that she is not a good singer unlike us). Pheogons are normally gentle but can go berserk if angered or in her case, overloaded. There aren’t many Pheogons left with many of them wiped out long ago and some are still persecuted for their powers if they get out of control. It’s why she kept herself disguised in her humanoid form.

Melody also mentioned that she is autistic which gives her trouble interacting with others or dealing with loud noises.  She turns into her Pheogon form whenever it gets too much and has difficulties controlling it so she swears to never turn into her Pheogon form. “If being part of a dangerous species wasn’t bad enough, then my autism makes me alienated from everyone,” said Melody.

We all sympathize with her with Dominic saying “I understand what it’s like to be an outcast with my sexuality and being part of the Psychokienings which gives me psychic powers and high intelligence. There are only a few of my kind left too, feared for our powers so we keep ourselves hidden. I had difficulties accepting who I was but I had my friends who helped me to love myself for who I am.” “We have no issues with who you are. I want to learn and understand you more” said Charlie. “Yeah, anything you’re struggling with and you can count on us” said Harry. “I know you are just as capable as with all those ideas you had back then. And I bet you were the one who knew that Seven Harmonies was in Stephen’s desk all along didn’t you?” I said.

Melody smiled and said “Thanks. You all along with my boyfriend are the only ones who understand me. For that, I want to help you all and get stronger.” “I’m sure you will. We believe in you” said Dominic. She gave us some biscuits for us to share (which along with music is her interest that she is fixated on). The biscuits she has shared were Magic Cookie Bars with rainbow coloured sprinkles which were delicious! It’s what we needed. Friends like Dominic and Melody reminded me that there are many different people in this world that we should accept and understand to make them feel welcome. Together, we shall unite them with the power of music just like for this adventure.

McFly and Busted Adventures; Legends of The Seven Harmonies Chapter 1: The Force is with me

 To celebrate the start of the Busted Vs McFly tour, I have written a full length story which stars the boys from McFly and Busted going on an adventure to find and learn a song in the nine islands of Yggdrasill to find the treasure to save the world, meeting characters protrayed by Hayden Christensen who serve as Yggdrasil's guardians; setting them trails for them to earn the song. 

Here are some notes before reading my story:

It will also star my orignal character Dominic which I reccomended you read his debut story here.

It will also guest star the  Pokémon that the McFly and Busted boys and Dominic has used including those that are planned for future stories. You can read them starting from here 

I also reccomend you to read McBusted: The Celestial Reunion and Love and McBusted meets Anakin Skywalker: The Forces of Light that beats the darkness where they have first meet Anakin and learn psychic powers which they will be using throughout this story. Dominic himself also have psychic powers which I do plan to cover more of for a future story. 

The first chapter will be focusing on Danny Jones and Anakin Skywalker from the Star Wars series. After finishing their Busted Vs McFly tour, the McFly and Busted boys have meet up with Dominic who invinted them for an adventure at Yggdrasil Island to find and learn a special song. Danny Jones take the charge, only to get tricked into causing an accident that leads him to aniexty. 

Enjoy and I will be releasing each chapters weekly during the first couple weeks of the Busted Vs McFly tour so keep an eye on them. 

McFly and Busted Adventures; Legends of The Seven Harmonies

Used this as the intro theme

Danny Jones – The Force is with me

I am Danny Jones from the pop-punk group McFly and super group McBusted. Lately, we have been touring with another pop-punk group, our friends and rivals Busted, in this mega tour, which both bands get to complete known as Busted Vs. McFly, which hasn’t been done before! 

Throughout this smashing tour, we have smashing it out to see who is the best band while dissing each other for our hits including “You know I hate McFly but I feel much better, occupied my mind writing you a love letter” (Busted singing Air Hostess), “Not into Busted but I love the clothes she wears” (us singing our very first single Five Colours in Her Hair – I get to sing that!), “Went out to the backyard to find out if it one of those winnables” (Busted singing Year 3000), “It’s not all about Busted” (us singing “All About You”), “McFly are the Loser Kids!” (Busted singing Loser Kids) and “Obviously, Busted are out of my league!” (us singing “Obviously”).

But outside this battle of the band's tour, we are nothing more than close friends having a good time being on tour that brings out the kid in us as we make our fans smile, having a laugh with our banter and jokes and just being together on stage. It helps that we have become a lot closer lately with our polyamorous relationship (though I say that our relationship is like a sexless marriage!).

After all, Busted were the ones who helped us McFly to rise to fame in the first place so we owe it to these guys. Even our ‘rivalry’ has helped to push each other to better ourselves as we get ideas from each other’s style (though I’ll tell you that our ‘rivalry’ started when we were both nominated for Record of the Year and we wanted to win but it was Busted who stole the award from us! We made things even by winning Best Pop Act a year later).

But even so, we have fun together as close friends, writing songs for each other, goofing off, having our gaming sessions (which is one thing that we compete with outside our music), giving each other moral support when we need it and having Pokémon battles with the Pokémon that we have caught during our Pokémon tour.

Let me tell you a secret; The idea of having both bands touring again has came to us back when we McFly boys played some songs with the Busted boys during Matt and Emma’s wedding. This inspired us to do more shows together.

We had many adventures together and meet many people including our close friend and biggest fan of ours Dominic who said that meeting us has helped him to be his true-self and to come out to his loved ones. It makes me happy to know that we helped to inspire others.  In return, he has been our guiding light who helps me to grow.

But recently, we had a brand new adventure; it was right after our final Busted Vs McFly tour at when we saw Dominic who was under attack by a pink-haired girl and a muscled man in their giant mecha that is shaped like an Elf. With him being our closest friend, we instantly rush over to protect him. “Dominic! Are you ok?” I asked, naturally worried about his safety. He wasn’t hurt thank goodness but he seemed relieved with our presence nevertheless which made him feel safe. “Who do you both think you are?!” demanded James.

“Why aren’t you all such handsome boys?” said the woman who appeared to gush over us (not that I would blame her) until her cutesy expression changed and said “Um...I mean that magical prince of yours has the key to getting us the greatest treasure there is so get out of our way or we’ll squash you all like bugs!” The man said to the woman “Idunn, please be polite”, much to her annoyance. The man then added “Pardon me but I am Thor. We happened to be treasure hunters known as Team Odin Hunters and your friend has something that we need that’ll guide us to the treasure we seek. I’ll give you all a chance to surrender to us peacefully and to hand it over.”

We can tell that Dominic refused so naturally we stood up to them. “You think we’ll let you give up that easily?!” asked Tom. “We aren’t fooling for your willies!” declared Charlie. “Well, you’re going to regret for not being good boys! I’m warning you that we don’t play nice!” cried Idunn who sets her mecha on us which she calls Álfheimr.

Used this for the battle against Idunn and Thor

Idunn uses Álfheimr to fire arrows towards us but we all work together as a team to fight those two troublemakers as we speak to each other telepathically to alert each other where the arrows are coming from and where to attack. It shows that we can work as a team outside of our song-making and touring regardless of which bands we’re from.

It also gives each of us a chance to shine with our powers. I maybe clumsy and impulsive but I make up for it with my super human strength, using my muscles to hold onto the Álfheimr when Idunn tries to crush us with its legs. Tom also helped out by freezing the arrows with his time stop ability which gives James an opportunity to fire his elemental-based powers.

Thor tried to turn things around by firing multiple arrows at us which does sting but Charlie was on our side who defended them with his shields. Dougie also gave us a helping hand by using his mind to send the arrows right back at the Álfheimr, dealing damage to it. Matt returns the favour by summoning an explosion below the Álfheimr while Harry heals us.

Idunn was getting impatient and pressed multiple buttons to fire lots of arrows at once, some of which missed us and were headed towards the nearby fans who were bystanders but Dominic helped us out by repelling the arrows with his telekinesis and firing an explosive psychic attack at the Álfheimr using Psychic Blast. People were surprised to see Dominic having psychic powers like that. With the Álfheimr being heavily damaged, Thor grabs Idunn and jumps out before it explodes. “Mark my words, as this isn’t over!” yelled Idunn as Thor ran off with her.

Our fans were cheering for us just like for our show. It’s good for them to see our teamwork and strength, though I wouldn’t want them to get hurt. “Thank you! Thank you very much!” said Dougie. They seemed amazed that we can fight with our psychic powers, yet were wary with Dominic, who is part of a special race known as Psychokinenings, humans who are born with psychic powers, though they were thankful that he helped to save them.

A while back, Dominic has told us that there are not many Psychokieneings left due to the persecution from other people who fears our powers so we keep them a secret to avoid being hunted down like his parents who were fortune tellers which is what they used to do as a living but they have to remain hidden because many people became paranoid that the fortunes they received have suspiciously came true and they tried to track them down. He finds that it’s already hard enough to hide his identity, with him keeping his sexuality a secret for years. We felt sorry for Dominic having that burden, but it’s good that he has us to help him be himself, always accepting him for who he is with his love for our music has helped him to discover his sexuality and admiring his Psychic powers (just like one time when he used his telekinesis to play the drums as Busted’s ‘drummer. He was amazing I tell you! I noticed that Harry was enviously looking at him. At this rate, he has a rival!)

We asked Dominic about why those two were attacking him and what they were after. He showed us what it appeared to be a treasure map and said “This is Yggdrasill, it consists of nine islands where it’s said to have gateways that connect to different worlds. It’s where Psychokinening have originated from and being one myself is why they were after me. I believe that those two were after a treasure that is hidden in Yggdrasill  known as Ragnacho; a powerful treasure that mustn’t fall into the wrong hands. I believe that I should be the one to find it for safekeeping.”

He then added that the key to finding Ragancho is to find a song that can only be played by those with divine voices and play divine tunes which intrigued us. “So how about we’ll have an adventure of a lifetime?” asked Dominic. We imagined finding that song for us to play though even so, I always admire our adventures with Dominic, helping him to save the world for our family and fans. Having to finish our Busted Vs McFly tour, it was a good time for an adventure so we couldn’t pass up this offer.

“Of course, we’re happy to join you, Dominic!” I said smiling. “I bet this treasure will give us a fortune!” said Matt as we jokingly imagined swimming in a pool of money that would help us to buy some more musical instruments. “We’ll be the ones who’ll find that treasure first!” said Harry who is always the competitive one. And so we were set for a brand new adventure with Dominic. We’ll also bring our Pokémon with us who’ll provide us a helping hand (just like that move!)

Dominic led us to his huge ship that resembled a bus which astonished us. “Woah! I didn’t know you could ride something as huge as this!” I said with fascination. “I guess I’ve been hiding a lot of secrets. My parents have used it to travel the world though I’ve been driving it myself” said Dominic blushing. “I say let’s call it the Mega McBus!” said James jokingly (coming up with the name from our super group McBusted). “All aboard The Mega McBus!” said Dougie. We all approved with the name of course.  

We have arrived at Yggdrasill. We were amazed at the layout of nine huge islands. Dominic who was driving The Star Carrier said “The structure of the islands reminds me of the Yggdrasill and the Nine Realms from Norse Mythology.” I’m not sure what that is but it sounds cool. We landed on the nearest island which had a huge mountain that looked like a volcano. I couldn’t resist taking a selfie with me and the boys in front of the mountain. We also noticed what it appeared to be a huge door up in the air right next to it which is certainly something you don’t see every day. I wonder how did it got there?

Used this theme for Mustadom

The first Yggdrasill  island we arrived at is known as Mustadom as told by the Princess of Mustadom named Clover (she welcomed us with her bright, bubbly personality) who added that she is part of a special race known as The Gate-Keepers. “Our job as Gate Keepers is to protect the gateways that connect to other worlds that transcend from different times and space” explained Clover.

“What do you know about Ragnacho? It’s the treasure that we’re looking for to make sure that doesn’t fall into the wrong hands” asked Dominic. Clover thought hard for a moment and said “Ooo, I don’t know what exactly Ragancho is but I have heard that the key to finding it is to find and learn this special song that can only be found by passing our island trial.”

I must say that we have a lot to take in already but this does sound interesting. We asked what our trial is. “You brave warriors have to travel to Heiðr Fields to Eikþyrnir Volcano where it’s said that you’ll find The Chosen One who brings balance to the force, serving as our guardian. If you prove to be worthy in his eyes, then you’ll gain access to part of the special song” answered Clover. “What about the Volcano? Would there be any danger of it erupting?” asked Dominic. “That would be the least of my worries as it’s been dormant for years so I don’t think it would erupt anytime soon” said Clover with optimism.

Eager to learn this special song, I’ve turned and said to the others “Alright, are we up for the challenge?” They all agreed with me. I bet it’ll be like The Bush-Tucker Trials from I’m a Celebrity which I took part in. I’m still amazed at how open I was with my camp-mates which helped to inspire others and the fact that people have voted for me to become King of the Jungle. While we were making our way, little that we know that we were spied on by the same treasure hunters who followed us. There was also a young girl who secretly watched over us.

Used this theme for this section

Heading towards Eikþyrnir Volcano via Heiðr Fields (whose bright soli were said to form by the ashes from Eikþyrnir Volcano, fertlising the land) was far from easy with the falling rocks, surrounding lava pools and Fire Dragons who as their names suggest have the ability to breathe fire but we were able to move forward with our teamwork including me helping to protect the others with my physical strength. I can’t let them get hurt after all. “These rocks are no match for my fists!” I said as I punched them with my punching move that is charged up with psychic powers using Megaton Punch. I’ve also sent out my Pokémon to help out (with Dominic giving us a Portable PC Device that allowed us to choose and swap out any of our Pokémon anywhere), including Machamp, who used its punching moves to smash the boulders.

As for the Fire Dragons, I’ve sent out my Water-type Pokémon including Milotic, Gorebyss and Greninja to take them out with their Water-type attacks. They do have the type advantage after all (see, I do know my type matchups).

Of course, it’s good for us to help each other with our super strength as shown when more falling boulders were heading towards us and some Fire Dragons that got in the way. I tripped over as I charged towards them head-on to protect the others but my Espeon and Gallade spotted me and went over to protect me with Espeon using Psychic on the boulders before they hit me and Gallade taking out the lava monsters with its Psyblade. “Don’t forget to be aware of your surroundings” said Dominic gently. Espeon and Gallade looked at me as they watched over me. I appreciated for their advice and concern.

I may be impulsive but I do my best to try smarter, not harder just like with one time when I spotted the others being confronted by several Fire Dragons. Just as they were about to get attacked by their flamethrowers, I quickly sent out Garchomp, Solrock and Appletun to fire their Scale Shot, Stone Edge and Dragon Pulse to intercept the flamethrowers (Appletun also has Thick Fat to handle the flamethrower). “Thank goodness, I would I would be burnt into a crisp,” said Dougie. “Are you all alright?” I asked them. “Yes, it was good timing there!” replied James as I commanded Exeggutor to use Hyponsis to send the Fire Dragons into a nice slumber, allowing  Pikachu to finish them off with its Thunderbolt.

There was one time when I held onto a boulder, a tripped and dropped it, shattering it into pieces with the shards nearly hitting the others. They all laughed at me with Charlie jokingly saying “Oh Danny, you could have given us splinters here!” “What are we going to do with you Mush?” asked Harry. I’m always the one who caused accidents but I smiled as it was good to make them laugh. After all, my Grand-Father once told me “Make people smile and the day is worthwhile”. I also unknowingly saved a young girl who was watching us from the distance from a boulder.

There were more Fire Dragons that got in the way and persistently fired their flamethrowers in every direction which makes it tricky to dodge at times. But I had an idea to keep us going. I got out my Spotify and played Bye Bye Bye by NSYNC with its beats and vocals encouraging me to jump and dodge their attacks while taking them out with my Psycho Combat during the “Bye! Bye! Bye!” parts. Everyone was watching me with surprise. I turned to them and encouragingly said “Come on; follow my league!” They all did the same and they all seemed to enjoy the energy. “Well that was good thinking of you Danny!” said Dominic just after he fired multiple Psycho Spheres at the Fire Dragons during the “Bye! Bye! Bye!” part. “This is giving us a workout” said Matt who dodges the attacks during the beat. “That was so much fun!” said James. “Why didn’t we think of that for our shows?” said Dougie. I was glad to come up with an unconventional way to beat those dragons. Wade Watson has nothing on us! Oh, I thought I saw someone watching us who seemed to be enjoying that but I didn’t see them. Maybe it was my imagination.

After that, I spotted a young man with blond hair who was about to get hit by a falling boulder. I quickly rushed over and shattered the rock with my fist infused with psychic energy using Kinesis Punch.  “Oh thank you! You are so kind!” said the man. “Thank goodness that you’re not hurt,” I said. He introduced to me as Loki who is a traveller and a scientist. “I happened to arrive here after hearing that Eikþyrnir Volcano is about to erupt after remaining dormant for years,” said Loki. “That sounds terrible. I dread to think what will happen to the people living here” I said with concern.

“I know, we can’t let The Gate Keepers’ lives be in danger which is why I have this device known as a Cyro-Bomb which is designed to freeze the volcano to prevent it from erupting. I would toss it into the volcano myself but I’m too afraid to get there with it being too dangerous for a travelling scientist like me” said Loki who sounded nervous so I offered to help him and said, “I’ll help to freeze the volcano for you.” Loki seemed astonished and said “Really? That would be a great help! It’s good to hear that there are people who do good for others” as he passed me the Cyro-Bomb. I agreed with him and went off with the Cyro-Bomb. Little that I know that as soon as I left, Loki had a sinister smile and said “Oh, you are so kind to be fooled.”

We almost reached Eikþyrnir Volcano where we found some boulders blocking the path. Just when we were about to clear them, more Fire Dragons showed up, persistently firing their Fire Balls at us or surrounding themselves in a veil of fire. But like before, I helped the others to take them down including by countering their Fire Balls with my Megaton Punch or intercepting their flamethrowers with my Muscle Blaster. The others helped me too telling me to wait until their veil of fire had faded before attacking them. I’ve lost the number of times when I scorched my hands touching them so it’s good to rely on my friends for that. Once we sent the Fire Dragons packing, we noticed that the boulders were already cleared away. It’s as if someone has done this for us. Either way, we were able to proceed.

We eventually made it to Eikþyrnir Volcano near where the gateway was. Much to our surprise, we have found Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker who we have met before. “Anakin!” I called. “Fancy meeting you here!” said Tom with excitement who is a fan of Star Wars. Anakin gazed at us and said, “So we meet again McBusted”.

I remembered meeting Anakin a while back who has helped us to awaken our hidden psychic powers yet we clashed with him who has turned to the dark side. He is a powerful Jedi but I wouldn’t agree with his questionable acts which involve hurting innocent lives as Darth Vader. But he seems to have taken another path and which helped him to change for the better having been brought to this world from another time. He explained that he was sent to this world long ago to protect the people from a threat which made him a guardian who can be summoned anytime. Even if we fought each other, I can only hope that it’ll help to redeem him.

“Does this make you the guardian that we have to prove our worth to you to learn this special song?” asked Matt. “If you all defeat in battle, then you will pass this trial” said Anakin who got out his Lightsaber. “You McFly and Busted boys have proved that you are stronger than me before though my powers have doubled the last time we meet. Show me how stronger you all have become since then. Show me that passion of yours” he added. I remembered that battle which was tough but it has put us McFly and Busted guys closer together. Still, I was feeling nervous with the powerful gaze from Anakin which was making me awe but with my friends beside me, I believe that we can pass this trial together. As the battle begins, Anakin said “This is where the fun begins”. Yeah, I believe that this will be fun!

Use this theme for the McBusted boys working together

Anakin was tough as ever with his powerful moves including him charging into us with his Lightsaber (with a gemstone attached known as a Gaylussite which enhances his powers according to him) at high speed using and firing a powerful blast made out of the force but I helped to protect the others starting with Dominic who I defended him with my Megaton Punch when Anakin was about to charge into him using. “You are as strong as ever Danny,” said Dominic. “Always to protect you,” I said as we looked at each other with admiration for a moment.

Anakin then fired shadowy aura spheres at us but Tom and I helped to defend the others by taking out the spheres with Tom firing his Time Spheres and me punching them with my Kinesis Punch. As the others used this chance to take him on, Tom called to him saying “You’re maybe a powerful Jedi but you’re no match for Team Tom and Danny! We have the high grounds after all!” “Yeah, we probably wouldn’t turn for you!” I added. We laughed and smiled with our jokes as we held together closely. We always make a good team as the main singers for McFly and this teamwork brings me back to when we were coaches for The Voice. I’m still proud of our contestant Ava winning for us. Anakin seemed to subtly enjoyed our banter as he responded with his dry humour saying “So you’re Team Tom and Danny. Both of you are shorter than I expected”.

Anakin is still pretty tough though who used his Lightsaber to block our moves and topple us over like bowling pins like one time when he blocked my Kinesis Kick with his Lightsaber but James gave me a helping hand who blew away with Lightsaber with his wind power using Psychic Wind. “That was good thinking of you James!” I said, praising him for his clever thinking while giving him a wink. “You keep it up there” said James encouraging me as I got back up, patting my hair. I admired James for his creativity and quirkiness. I owe it to him when I watched Back to The Future with him and Tom which helped to convince me to pick the name McFly for my band (after watching the truck chase scene when I spotted the name D. Jones on the horse manure).

As we fired our attacks including my Star Force Shocker, my Cinderace using Pyro Ball and my Decidueye firing its Spirit Shackle, Anakin reflected the attacks with his Lightsaber and fired his force blaster at us but Charlie shielded us with his Magical Shield. He looked at me and said, “I got your back as a fellow front man.” I smiled back at him. Both of our journeys are similar in a way. Meeting him and the other Busted boys has helped to widen my experience with pop music. It was a pleasure singing 3am and Not Alone with him.

Dougie tried to sneak up on Anakin but he sensed him first and used his force to send him flying. I grabbed him which caused me to fall flat on the ground. We laughed while the others including my Pokémon such as Roserade and Volcorona firing their Leaf Storm and Bug Buzz to keep him busy. “Thanks for the soft landing,” said Dougie. “And that was for The Danny and Dougie show!” I said as we laughed and smiled in admiration. I always find him weird and wonderful in his little ways which makes him cute. Maybe that’s why I like to give him a kiss on stage for fun.

Some of us were having trouble catching up to Anakin’s speed but Matt used his Land Explosion which kept him busy as he avoided the blast underneath which gave us a chance to strike him including me firing an explosive blast by flexing my muscles using Muscle Blaster and Ceruledge using its Bitter Blade. “That was pretty strong of you Matt!” I said as we complimented on our physics and held our biceps. “You’re been working out yourself” replied Matt. Fighting alongside him reminded me when we were dressed in a Twinsie on Sunday Side Up during the McBusted days.

I spotted Harry who was about to get ambushed by Anakin who twirled his Lightsaber but with my quick thinking, I spotted his tracks with my kick. “Thanks, Mush” said Harry. “Anytime Mush” I replied as we both blushed. We may not have hit on immediately at first but we have become closer ever since as we spend more time with our fitness sessions.

We also used our telepathically to keep in touch with each other including when I saw Anakin who was about to attack Matt from behind, giving Matt a warning and suggested Tom to slow down his movements using his Time Stop. Using telepathically makes us closer together. We all know what we’re all thinking.

We were evenly matched though Anakin wasn’t letting up even with our teamwork. I saw him knocking Dominic and Dougie down with his force. He was about to attack them with his Lightsaber while they were down (showing that he is still ruthless in battle). While I rushed over to help them, I felt that the heat was getting hotter and I think I saw the lava moving as if it was about to erupt. That’s when I remembered that I was given the Cyro-Bomb that Loki made to stop the volcano from erupting so I thought it would be the best time to toss it into the volcano. As soon as the Cyro-Bomb exploded, it released the ice which cooled the walls to crack and gave in. We suddenly felt a rumble within the volcano.

“What’s going on?” said Charlie nervously. Anakin took a look at the volcano and with a concerned look on his face, he said “The volcano...it’s about to erupt! Someone has damaged the walls” “Oh crud! Looks like our adventure will end up with us burning to a crisp!” cried Dougie. Huh? I thought The Cyro-Bomb was meant to stop the volcano from erupting. That’s when I realised that it was the explosion from the Cyro-Bomb had damaged the volcano which triggered the explosion. I became pale upon this realisation.

The Gatekeepers noticed that Eikþyrnir Volcano was about to erupt and were panicking. Loki (The leader of Team Odin Hunters) who has tricked me was watching this from his ship named Flying Mistilteinn with a smile. “It’s thanks to foolish people like him to do the hard work for me. I’ve always wanted to see a volcanic eruption and how people react to it” said Loki. Thor asked him “Sir, is it necessary to endanger other people’s lives just for the treasure?” “That is none of my concerns. It’ll help to clear them away so that no one will get in our way” replied Loki who is unfazed. “Well I’m all for taking down those who get in our way but it sounds like overkill” said Idunn. “This is not the time to be questioning me. I want you both to get out there and find the harmony; taking advantage of the chaos while you can. And if anyone happened to be still alive, take care of them” said Loki. Idunn and Thor did as they were instructed.

Used this theme for emotional moments

Back with us, I was feeling immense guilt for causing the eruption which would endanger other people’s lives. “...I’m sorry...this is...all my fault,” I said shamefully and fell onto my knees, blanked out. It reminded me back when I had a panic attack on live TV during the show This Morning. I was asked a question and all of a sudden, the nerves got the better of me with my heart rate going up and feeling sick. I was unable to answer the question and I was looking for the nearest exit as a way to escape. I felt like I needed to escape to get away from it all.

I don’t know if I was tricked into this or if I did something wrong but I do know that there is no one but me to blame. As my mind was filled with worry and remorse, I could hear my friends calling out to me. “Danny! Are you ok?!” called Tom. “Danny! We got to get out of here!” cried Matt. I mustered the courage to look at them and tearfully said “Everyone, I was the one who caused the volcano to erupt with that Cyro-Bomb. I was told that it would stop the volcano from erupting so I threw it in to protect you all.  It’ll be my fault for endangering you all.”

To my surprise, everyone was very understanding of me. “I don’t know the full story but I know you wouldn’t mean any harm. You were trying to help. I believe in you just like with song and magic” said Dominic gently. “We all make mistakes which make you human so you’re not alone” said James. “Trying to protect those you love. I know how that feels but right now, we have to stop the volcano and to focus the present” said Anakin as he was holding a boulder with the others were already quickly tossing the boulders into the volcano to block the cracks while I was shell-shocked.

I stood up and was moved by the comfort of my friends but right now, I have to help them to prevent Eikþyrnir Volcano from erupting with help from my Pokémon including Venusaur who uses its vines to toss the boulders, Machamp, Sawk and Hawlucha carrying the boulders and Greninja, Milotic and Gorebyss cooling down the volcano. I was still worrying a lot though, not helping that the vibration of the eruption was adding up to my anxiety which got in the way of focusing on moving the boulders towards the volcano and tossing the cracks. All of those thoughts were racing through my head including “What if we failed to stop the eruption?”, “All this shaking is making me nervous”, “I don’t want anyone to get fired because of me” and “I am still responsible for this mess” which is making me sweat and my mind couldn’t keep focus which caused me to drop the boulder, prancing around in panic and missing the cracks when I was tossing the boulder.

The others spotted me and continued to comfort me. “It’s going to be ok Mush,” said Harry reassuringly. “Here, let me carry that boulder for you,” said Dougie. “I’m here for you and we will get out of this” said Charlie. “Keep going, you can do this,” said Dominic. Espeon and Gallade gave me a reassuring look. I gave them a smile as being with them had helped to ease things up a bit.

Used this for the battle against Idunn and Thor

If things couldn’t get more hectic though, Idunn and Thor  arrived with their mecha that resembled a warrior with a huge hammer which they called it Ásgarðr. Idunn uses it to land its hammer right next to us. We could have been squashed like pancakes! “What are you both doing here?!” yelled Dougie.  “What’s with bad guys arriving at the most inconvenient time?” said James dryly. “You’re the ones who tricked Danny into causing the volcano to erupt aren’t you?” demanded Charlie. “To answer the question to you Peasants, we Team Odin Hunters are here to simply take the treasure!” said Idunn. “Well this is not a good time here as the volcano is about to erupt!” said Tom. “I’m going to make you both leave!” said Anakin fierily who pointed his Lightsaber at them. “I am aware of that though I’ll give you all a chance to allow us to get to the treasure while you all save the island” said Thor   trying to make a deal. “Aww spare the formalities Thor, getting into the action is more fun!” said Idunn as she slammed down Ásgarðr’s hammer before he could stop her.

I tried to help the others to stop Idunn  from distracting us but I still couldn’t keep focused with my mind filled with worry and anxiety (with thoughts including “They’re distracting us!” and “Why do they have to turn up right now?”) which allowed me to get knocked down by Ásgarðr’s hammer or to miss my attacks like when jumped and aimed my Kinesis Kick towards Ásgarðr but I couldn’t aim my attack correctly and was about to crash into the floor but Dominic sensed this and held me with his telekinesis. Being held by his mind feels rather warm.

My mishaps allowed my friends to get hit like when Charlie and Harry were knocked down by Ásgarðr twirling its hammer. I guess I was letting them down. “Ho! Ho! Ho! It’s fun to squash my foes with Ásgarðr’s hammer!” laughed Idunn as she was chasing the others with Ásgarðr slamming its hammer towards them. “This is no fun I say!” cried Harry.

Anakin helped them out by ramming his Lightsaber at Ásgarðr. Idunn spotted this and yelled “How dare you! I’ve spent a fortune building this machine! I won’t let you ruin it!” Just as Anakin was about to slice the hammer, Thor   said “Don’t worry, we’ll show what Ásgarðr is capable of!” as he pressed a button that released electricity on the hammer and slammed it towards Anakin, giving him a shock. We went over to help Anakin though Ásgarðr slammed down its hammer which released electrical pillars at us. We narrowly avoided it. “Bet you weren’t prepared for a shock!” taunted Idunn  as she continued to slam down the hammer at us.

Wanting to stop it, I tried to get past the hammer but I kept on getting knocked down as the hammer impacted the earth. I saw my friends who were about to get squashed by the hammer but with my quick thinking, I ran towards them and saved them just in time including when I leapt towards Dougie or grabbed Dominic’s hand. “I owe you one for saving me from becoming flattened,” said Dougie. We smiled despite ourselves.

Anakin got up and angrily said “I can’t let you both allow the volcano to erupt!” as the boulders that we dropped into the volcano were shaking as caused by the vibration of the hammer and our battle. “You look cute when you’re angry” taunted Idunn who was about to slam the hammer towards him. I ran towards Anakin to help him, only for me to get knocked over by the hammer, causing me to slam into Anakin and we both fell into the volcano. “No! Danny!” cried Tom. “We got to go after them!” said Dominic who was worried about my safety. Gallade and my other Pokémon fought Ásgarðr with Espeon unleashing its Glitzy Glow and Pikachu shocking it with Thunderbolt. Gallade looked at them as if it’s his way to tell them that they’ll keep Ásgarðr distracted. The others nodded at them as they climbed down towards where Anakin and I fell.

We landed on the ground near the boulders that were breaking apart from the strain of the battle. Anakin landed on the sand as he ranted “I hate sand”. As we got up, I thought I saw a faint green glow. It appeared to be a small orb. Putting that aside, I was worried about being separated from the others but Anakin looked at me and said “You there, help me to dam the volcano.” His intense gaze at me made me in awe but I helped him out, combining our strength to toss the boulders into the volcano. He then added “It’s getting hot here so let’s cool off a bit” as he took off his shirt. I find myself taking off my white tank top. Guess that makes me less sweaty as we do the lifting.

I still couldn’t keep focus, and my mind was full of anxiety, which again affected my performance of throwing the boulders into the lava as I kept on throwing them to the wall. The sound of the steam bursting out made me jump, causing me to drop the boulder. It made me worry that the volcano was about to erupt any minute.

Anakin noticed my concern and said while he held me against the wall and tenderly held my biceps, “You still spending time in your head?” “It seems so. I’m sorry, I worry a lot, especially with this is my own doing” I replied. Anakin gently said with our eyes close contact “I too have so many mistakes and caused so many atrocities when I’ve turned to the dark side. But I can’t change the past, I can only learn and atone from them to move forward for a new path in life which is something that you all have taught me. It’s easy to let this situation get to you and to question the choices you make but you gotta let these thoughts pass by and keep going.”

I looked at Anakin while blushing. I guess I find it weird yet smoothing that we were rather close while shirtless. Still, he was right about that. It reminded me how I was still going through my healing journey as I understood my anxiety more and opened up to others which helped to inspire hearts. That’s when the others arrived with Dominic saying “He’s right and we’re here for you to help you get through it.” “You have been a big help to us throughout with your kindness and bravery but also as my fellow guitarist and vocalist,” said Tom. “Yeah, helping us to laugh and smile,” said Dougie. “You’re always a pleasure to hang around with even if we’re from different bands” said James. “And you have proven on I’m a Celebrity that you can overcome anything that your mind tells you,” said Harry.

I smiled at my friends. Having them beside me makes me realise that no matter what I’m going through in my head, I am not alone (not like one of my songs). Sure there may be some who may take advantage of my kindness but there are many people who needs my kindness and right now, I have to keep going for them. “I promise that I’ll make you all smile!” I said. 

Used this theme for the McBusted boy's Harmony Modes

Just then, the glowing orb was glowing on me as if it responded to my will which gave me a green-coloured pop punk style outfit including a shirtless vest. I even got a new guitar! We were all amazed at my transformation. “Wow, Danny! It looks like you have an anime pop star super form!” said Tom with astonishment. “I shall use this power to protect you all!” I said as I played my guitar which released musical notes projectiles that damaged Ásgarðr.

“What’s all this racket?!” cried Idunn  as she continued to attack the others with the Ásgarðr’s hammer but using my newly obtained transformation, I sang one of my McFly songs which gave everyone a power-up, helping them to dodge the hammer and to deal twice as much damage to Ásgarðr. It’s amazing how I can use my career to help others to become stronger. It’s like we’re fighting as one. Their boosted speed has also helped them to quickly carry the boulders to seal the volcano. I helped them out too with my anxieties being pushed to the back of my mind by using my voice to move the boulders (or with my enchanted super human strength) and making use of the boosts myself; pummelling the Ásgarðr with my Psycho Combat really hard without breaking a sweat.

“Wow, Danny! It’s like hearing you live on stage as the frontman!” said Charlie as he made use of the boosted speed I gave to him to dodge the hammer. “Your talent never ceases to amaze me” said Dougie with my Pokémon making use of the power-up too including Garchomp firing its Scale Shot that was fired twice as fast while it was defending Machamp, Sawk, Hawlucha and my Water type Pokémon as they were sealing the volcanio.  “We have to come up with something that’ll match your transformation!” said Matt jokingly. I smiled at them, knowing that I am helping them with my newfound powers. “So this is the power of Harmony Mode which is the key to learning the seven harmonies. It shows that you have it in you with your songs” said Anakin as he fired his force towards Ásgarðr.

Well, I take that as a compliment! Idunn was getting frustrated and yelled, “We can’t let them win just because of that fancy transformation!” Thor   remained composed and said “Don’t worry Idunn, I got this one in the bag!” who pressed a button which caused Ásgarðr to run at full speed while mashing its hammer. I helped to defend the others with my musical notes but I also spotted that it was heading towards a young black girl with wings who was hiding behind a rock. Quickly, I rushed over and stopped its track with my Megaton Punch. I turned and said to the girl “Are you alright?” She appeared to be shy as she was startled and didn’t respond. Still, I’m glad that she wasn’t hurt. Even Thor seemed surprised to see her. I guess he wouldn’t want to hurt an innocent bystander.

Anyway, the others went over to deal further damage to the Ásgarðr while it was stunned. “We shall break that hunk of junk of yours!” said Dougie. “That is for interfering with us!” said Anakin. “And now I shall give it my all!” I said as I charged up my guitar to unleash a huge musical note while chanting “Ultra Starry Musical Blaster!” which dealt huge damage to Ásgarðr, destroying it. Wow! It’s like I’m giving it my all while playing live to my wonderful fans. It’s what being in McFly is all about.

As Ásgarðr was destroyed, Thor quickly grabbed Idunn and leapt out. “How dare you Peasants! I’ll teach you naughty boys if it’s the last thing I do!” ranted Idunn as Thor escorted her away. With that, Mustadom Island was saved, and the volcano was sealed up. “You were incredible in that outfit of yours Danny, along with your singing that enchanted us just like for your shows!” said Dominic excitedly. “It’s like your voice has guided us through,” said Charlie. “As if you couldn’t be more talented enough!” said Tom.

As amazed as my Harmony Mode transformation is, I remained humble and said “It was you all that gave me the strength to move forward”.  “I thank you all for helping me to stop Eikþyrnir Volcano from erupting. For that, I deem you worthy in my eyes and you passed this trial. You may proceed and learn part of the Seven Harmony” said Anakin. So I turned to the green orb which while in my Harmony Mode showed me the first part of the lyrics and the notes that go with it. It goes “When all things seem lost, keep on moving forward with your heart.” It was short but it felt so smoothing as I learnt it. I do tend to forget my lyrics when it comes to singing songs but it feels like it remains in my head and heart that I won’t forget it. I reverted from my Harmony Mode afterwards.

Meanwhile, Loki had witnessed my transformation and victory from his Flying Mistilteinn and said to himself “So these pop stars are the key to learn Seven Harmonies. This makes things interesting.” Everyone clapped at my singing. “Such a great voice” said Dougie. “We gotta learn Seven Harmonies and have our Harmony Modes of our own!” said Matt. “I like to see that!” I said.  I then noticed that Dominic appeared to have blanked out for a moment. I went over and asked if he was ok. “Oh, I’m fine. Guess it was my imagination” answered Dominic. I was relieved to hear.

Used this for Melody's theme

We then noticed the same girl who came out of hiding from the rock. I’m guessing that she was lured out by my singing. “Why hello there! Did you like my singing?” I asked. “Hey there, who are you?” asked Harry. I guess we were overeager as she was startled, freezing on the spot with nerves. I guess I don’t blame her for it. Dominic signalled us to give her some space. After a couple of minutes, Dominic gently said “It’s ok, we don’t mean any harm. Take your time.”

That helped the girl to pluck up the courage and said “I...I liked...your singing...Seven Harmonies.” She was having trouble making eye contact and was stumbling over words. “Why thanks, we’re two pop punk bands who like to sing” I said softly. “I...I like...that song” added the girl. “We’re on a journey to learn this song to find this treasure,” said James. “My...my name...is Melody. Can...I...join you? I...want to...help” she asked. “Why of course! We’re happy to be your friend” I said welcoming her.

We thanked Anakin for everything and headed back to The Star Carrier as we passed the news over to Clover. “That’s amazing! It seems that you are all the ones who can master Seven Harmonies!” said Clover cheerfully.

There were some Gatekeepers who were less welcoming though who blamed me for almost causing the volcanic eruption. “I bet it was you foreigners who endangered our lives!” said one of them. “This is why we don’t trust anyone! They’ll only take advantage of us!” said another. I was hurt to hear this as it was my responsibility but my friends stood up to me with Anakin who escorted us glaring at them which was enough to silence them. “That’s enough! It’s no way to treat our guests!” said Clover. “Yeah, I bet you all have the loudest voices but know very little!” said Dougie. “He was also the one to save your home,” said Dominic. “If you have a problem with Danny, then deal with us,” said James. I was grateful to have my friends standing by my side.

 The Gatekeepers have left afterwards. I also noticed that Melody was trembling with anxiety and tried to block her ears from The Gatekeepers’ hostility. I shielded her which helped to make her feel safe. “I wish you all the best of luck passing the rest of the trials to learn Seven Harmonies completely. May the force be with you” said Anakin. We thanked Anakin for everything.

As we rode on The Star Carrier, I was already hyped with the start of our adventure. I know it won’t be easy with the bumps along the way but with everyone besides each other, I believe that we will make it through together, just like how both of our bands have gone through several trials that kept us closer than ever.
