🧡🦑 Meggy's POV:
🐙 Time/Arc: Soon after The Anime Arc
🎵 Song: 'Wake Up' by 'Julie and the Phantoms Cast'
(https://youtu.be/koCU43SpQVQ)
(Context: Y/N is an inkling who managed to break their way into the same room as the Ink Zuccer 2000. Francis found them cowering in that room and recognised them to be one of Meggy's closest friends. They were killed directly in front of her and Axol as leverage and there was nothing that the two of them could have done to save them.)
I grasped the outspread piece of paper in my shaking hands; it was the last thing that Y/N had dropped when they were killed.
'The last piece of them that actually remains.' I thought angrily. Francis hadn't caused me to lose just one, but two of my friends; I hated him more than anything for that. I was so glad he was dead.
Looking down at the paper with tears in my red eyes, I was a bit shocked to see that it was lyrics that were spread across the page. But, as I read them, I was able to tell that these were the last words that Y/N/N had wanted to say to me.
Here's one thing I want you to know
You got someplace to go
Life's a test, yes, but you go toe-to-toe
You don't give up, no, you grow
And you use your pain
'Cause it makes you "you"
Though I wish I could hold you through it
I know it's not the same
You got living to do
And I just want you to do it
So get up, get out, relight that spark
You know the rest by heart
Wake up, wake up if it's all you do
Look out, look inside of you
It's not what you lost
It's what you'll gain raising your voice in the rain
Wake up your dream and make it true
Look out, look inside of you
It's not what you lost
Relight that spark, time to come out of the dark
Wake up, wake up
Better wake those demons
Just look them in the eye
No reason not to try
Life can be a mess
I won't let it cloud my mind
I'll let my fingers fly
And I use the pain 'cause it's part of me
And I'm ready to power through it
Gonna find the strength, find the melody
'Cause you showed me how to do it
Get up, get out, relight that spark
You know the rest by heart
Wake up, wake up if it's all you do
Look out, look inside of you
It's not what you lost
It's what you'll gain raising your voice in the rain
Wake up your dream and make it true
Look out, look inside of you
It's not what you lost
Relight that spark, time to come out of the dark
Wake up, wake up
So wake that spirit, spirit
I wanna hear it, hear it
No need to fear it, you're not alone
You're gonna find your way, oh
Wake up, wake up if it's all you do
Look out, look inside of you
It's not what you lost
It's what you'll gain raising your voice in the rain
Wake up your dream and make it true
Look out, look inside of you
When you feel lost
Relight that spark, time to come out of the dark
Wake up
Mm-mm, wake up
When I finished reading the lyrics aloud, I turned to find Red standing in the doorway, with the door wide open next to him. I hadn't even heard him open it and start to enter the room.
He quickly rushed over to me, clearly being able to tell what was upsetting me, and brought me into a hug. I gave him a slight smile in return and gently put my arms around the Fat Italian.
Although I'd lost two of my closest friends, I still had the others, and... I could tell that Y/N and Desti were protecting and smiling down at us.
