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
The second chapter will focus on Tom Fletcher and Stephen Glass from Shattered Glass. With Melody joining their side, Dominic and the McBusted boys were given locations by Stephen to find the next harmony but things are not what they seem and Tom struggles with making a contribution to the team.
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
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.
