This Is War
I'm trying out this new way of writing songfics. Please review and tell me what you think of it and ideas on improvement.
If you haven't, check out my other story, Nothing.
Disclaimer: I own Young Justice about as much as I own a rocket ship with enough fuel to take me to MARS so I can go to PIGFARTS! (Shout out in the Young Justice story if you get my reference!)
Lyrics will be in bold, flashback in italics.
Jasmine sat on her bed at the manor, her homework in front of her. She put her head phones in and selected a song.
A warning
To the people
The good and the evil
This is war
"We need to let them know there are still people protecting them."
To the soldier
"It's Superman!"
"I'm not superman."
"Look, you wear the S, you're as good as."
The civilian
"Look! It's Flash Boy!"
"It's Kid Flash!"
The martyr
Bruce closed his eyes as he crouched down in front of his parents graves.
The victim
"ARTEMIS!"
This is war
Dr. Serling Roquette sat there, trying to disable the fog.
It's the moment of truth and the moment to lie
The moment to live and the moment to die
The moment to fight, the moment to fight
To fight, to fight, to fight
Aqualad silently took out his water bearers and jumped out at the thug.
To the right
To the left
We will fight to the death
"You knew what would happen, didn't you?" KF asked. Robin and Jay nodded.
To the Edge of the Earth
The Bio-ship had to be the coolest thing Artemis had ever seen.
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
To the right
To the left
We will fight to the death
"Hurting? Try traumatized. I finally become leader and wind up sending all of my friends to their deaths."
To the Edge of the Earth
The League was destroyed by the ships.
It's a brave new world, it's a brave new world
Jasmine finished her work and began humming along with the song.
A warning
To the prophet
"She has the strongest telepathic mind I have ever encountered, including my own."
To the liar
"You could start by admitting you're not really Green Arrow's niece."
"Well, yeah. In fact, she's related to..."
"Enough. Artemis's relations may indeed make her a suspect. But she's entitled to a secret identity."
The honest
"You have feelings for her, don't you?"
"W-what?" Wally said as he choked on a piece of popcorn.
This is war
"We don't have powers!"
To the leader
"Then I accept the burden, until you are ready to lift it from my shoulders."
"We picked the right guy to lead, automatically making you the one to explain this to Batman!"
The pariah
"I'm done letting the League tell me what to do."
The victor
Wally put his newest souvenir on the shelf.
The Messiah
"The infiltrators have been outfiltrated!" Robin and Jay said as they highfived each other.
This is war
"Superboy! No!"
It's the moment of truth and the moment to lie
The moment to live and the moment to die
The moment to fight, the moment to fight
To fight, to fight, to fight
Red Arrow ran through Star City, arrow notched.
To the right
To the left
We will fight to the death
Wally gently laid the watch down in Dr. Fate's cold hand.
To the Edge of the Earth
Richard sat down with a book in his lap.
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
There was the Justice League.
Now, there was the Young Justice League.
To the right
To the left
We will fight to the death
Superboy pounded on the ice encasing the Martian girl.
To the Edge of the Earth
It's a brave new world, it's a brave new world
It's a brave new world
It was one of those days.
One of those rare days where everyone was at the mountain, and everyone was totally relaxed.
Jay closed her eyes as the bridge played.
I do believe in the light
Raise your hands into the sun
Superboy watched as Superman flew down.
The fight is done
The war is won
"We...did it..."
"Was there...ever any doubt?"
Lift your hands toward the sun
"Why isn't anyone ever just whelmed?"
Toward the sun
"We can show you the sun."
"I'm pretty sure it's after midnight, but we can show you the moon."
Toward the sun
"Find your own little spitfire. One who wont let you get away with nothing."
The war is won
"The team deserves...has...my respect..."
To the right
To the left
We will fight to the death
"Eventually, everyone sees the light..."
To the Edge of the Earth
"Ummm...thanks...Wally..."
It's a brave new world from the last to the first
Batman. Superman. Aquaman. Martian Man Hunter. Green Arrow. Flash.
Robin. Jay. Superboy. Aqualad. Miss Martian. Artemis. Red Arrow. Kid Flash.
To the right
To the left
We will fight to the death
Kaldur was shot from behind.
To the Edge of the Earth
"What's this?"
"Training, hand-eye coordination."
"One on one?"
"If you think you think you can handle it."
It's a brave new world, it's a brave new world
"Do you want me to turn that on for you?"
A brave new world
Jay smiled as she put on her mask.
The war is won
"He is so not feeling the aster."
The war is won
"Black Canary taught me that."
A brave new world
"Today is the day!"
"Today is the day."
"Today, is the day."
"Today is the day!"
Today is the day.
