"Written in stone, every rule, every word, centuries old and unbending. Stay in your place better seen and not heard but now that story is ending. 'Cause I can't start to crumble, so come on and try! Try to shut me and cut me down! I won't be silenced, you can't keep me quiet, won't tremble when you try it, all I know is I won't go speechless, speechless!" She started to sing more passionately. As she looked out into the crowd she saw a very breathless Edlyn reach the back of the crowd with Rahul and Vasu in tow. Tears started to roll down Ariana's cheeks. She stretched out her hands hoping the rest of the song would give Edlyn the same strength she found when she heard it in her old life.

"Let the storm in, I can not be broken, no I won't live on unspoken 'cause I know that I won't go speechless... Try to lock me in this cage I won't just lay me down and die! I will take these broken wings and watch me burn across the sky! Hear the echo saying I, I won't be silenced! Though you want to see me tremble when you try it, all I know is I won't go speechless, speechless! 'Cause I'll breathe when they try to suffocate me! Don't you underestimate me. 'Cause I know that I won't go speechless. All I know is I want to go speechless, speechless!" Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Ariana became breathless. She couldn't stop the tears from flowing. She looked back just as everyone started to applaud. She caught sight of Cayden getting up, Lobo was on the drums grinning while Xander out down his violin. Ariana thanked them wordlessly then turned back to the audience and gave a small bow before running off the stage. Edlyn raced up to Ariana but she held up her hand, stopping Edlyn in her tracks. "No... please just a moment... one minute.... I promise." Ariana said as her tears turned into sobs but Edlyn grabbed her and pulled her into an embrace.

"... Thank you." Ariana cried against Edlyn's shoulder. "Ariana! I haven't heard you sing in years!" Shirley shouted as rushed up to the girls. She quickly joined in the embrace as her cheerfulness started to calm down Ariana. "An angel! An absolute angel!" She continued to shout. "You absolutely blew me away!" Mrs. Dabney yelled as she waddled up to the small group. "Mrs. Dabney?" Ariana called out. "Oh my goodness! Was the song that moving for you?" Mrs. Dabney said remorsefully. "Phillipa had the same problem. She was having the hardest time trying to give the right emotions to the song. I just never thought the musicians would walk off! They all practiced together, I didn't think they would develop a bond with one another. Thank goodness Cayden was close by." Mrs. Dabney said as she gave Ariana a sympathetic look.

"Mrs. Dabney... did you write that song?" Ariana asked as she brushed back her tears. "No... I heard the song from somewhere else and wrote it down from memory." She answered with a bittersweet smile. "I was just surprised you memorized it so quickly." She said as she watched Ariana closely. "Honey that was nothing! This little one used to sing and work at the same time at her mom's cafe. Best place to get a show and a good meal." Shirley said as she gave Ariana a one arm hug.

Mrs. Dabney just gave Shirley a smile in place of a response. The next group went up, setting up the stage so they could perform. "Well the party has officially started so attendees will be dancing soon. I am just gonna get out of everyone's way. No one wants to bump into a pregnant lady." Mrs. Dabney said as she waved her bye and walked off.

"Ey! Little songbird!" Gus yelled as he, Chuck and Ivan walked over. "What the hell is this?! They said it was your idea." Gus continued to shout as he walked over with a glass of dark liquid. "Gus! Chuck! Ivan! Hello!" Ariana shouted back. "Forget your 'ello! W'at the 'ell is t'is?!" Ivan shouted as he pointed to Gus's glass. "Um, iced coffee?" Ariana said sheepishly. "Do you not like it?" Ariana asked as her heart sank to the pit of her stomach.

"Don't like it?! Are you daft?! We love the stuff but it's on short supply! What's the meaning of this blasphemy?!" Chuck shouted. Ariana blinked her eyes a few times before their words finally processed in her brain. "You like it?" She asked cautiously. "Nah! We love it, get it right songbird!" Gus shouted before he took another sip of his drink. "Oy! Gus! We are supposed to s'are!" Ivan shouted. "Bugger! Get your own!" Gus shouted back as he pushed Ivan away with his twig arms. Ariana couldn't help but let out a heartfelt laugh. "Shirley, do we have some more in the back?" Ariana asked as she wiped away the rest of her tears.

"Not yet. Flora's been brewing but they've been drinking faster then we can get out. We still have lots of the frozen coffee you had us make though." Shirley answered. "That's good enough. Fill the cups with milk and add a tablespoon of the coffee liqueur. That should satisfy the bush folk." Ariana said with a wink. "Right, so Shirley come with us." Gus said as he, Chuck and Ivan abducted Shirley. "Thanks!" Ariana shouted as she watched them take Shirley away. "Feeling better?" Edlyn asked with a light chuckle. "Lots." Ariana said with a bright smile. "I'm just upset that I missed most of the song!" Edlyn said with a pout.

"Where we you?" Ariana asked. "I went to go sit in the quad by the school. I was feeling a little depressed but Vasu told me you were being harassed so I ran as fast as I could to get back here to help you." Edlyn said as she scratched the back of her head and gave an awkward smile. "Thank you." Ariana whispered. "Anything for you." Edlyn answered with a giant grin. "Now my lady, can I please have this dance?" Edlyn asked in a deep, dignified voice as she stretched out an arm.

"No! Can I have this dance my lady?" Ariana said in a deeper voice as she bowed, extending an inviting hand. Edlyn laughed hard as she grabbed Ariana's hand. "I can't help but be a proper lady." Edlyn said in a dramatically high pitched voice as she batted her lashes. "We both know I'm too manly to be the lady in this relationship." Ariana said as she straightened up her back and tugged at one of the white lapels on her sleeves dress. "Oh my!" Edlyn giggled as she fanned herself with her hand. Both girls laughed as they walked onto the dance floor.
