Laetitia: Because I couldn’t let you ruin music. I’m not gonna be bought and sold, but I’m not hiding either. I’ll find my own path.

Panel 7: Laetitia walks off, leaving him to ponder things as he makes his make his way toward the still open exit door where Maeva can be seen (with silly string and junk on her) as she rushes toward it.

Panel 8: Slamming the door on her with one hand as if she wasn’t there, he can’t help smiling a bit.

Collin Thought: Actually, it wasn’t that bad.

Caption: The End.

I hope you all enjoyed the ride and I'm glad I got it done before the American Idol season ended so it would be relevant. Stay tuned for the next one, "Bad Karma", which ties up a little plot threat from a few stories back.]]>Wed, 13 May 2009 04:25:40 GMT
Panel 1: Stepping out to freedom, Collin breathes a sigh of relief, barely noticing the shadowy figure waiting for him.

Panel 2: His mood quickly turns to one of displeasure as the figure reveals itself to be Laetitia.

Collin: Oh it’s you.

Laetitia: I guess I have a lot of explaining to do.

Panel 3: Collin growls as he reveals to a surprised Laetitia that he knew of her past.

Collin: Let me guess, your stupid, fame-hating brother put you up to this?

Laetitia: How did you…

Collin: I ran a background check.

Panel 4: Suspicious and not wanting to fall for any lies she holds her ground as Collin’s frustration

Laetitia: Then why didn’t you stop me?

Collin: Because you’re not like the rest of those no-talent thugs. You had the ability to make something out of yourself.

Laetitia: As what? Your clan’s cash cow?

Panel 5: Knowing that he’s been caught on that aspect, Collin is willing to admit this. Dropping her guard a bit, she does have to reluctantly give him credit for one thing.

Collin: For the most part, but I wasn’t lying about the rest.

Laetitia: Well, it was nice to be heard. And I guess fame wasn’t as entirely evil I thought it would be.

Collin: Then why ruin your chances?]]>Wed, 21 Sep 2011 13:06:56 GMT
Panel 1: Getting separated from Collin, Priya and Shug King are running back stage.

Panel 2: Coming across the ropes and holders leading to their leaders’ sandbag, Priya stops him.

Priya: Wait!

Panel 3: Pointing up at their leaders, she pleads with him (looking all sweet and doe-eyed) to help her but Shug King tries to stand his ground.

Shug King: We Don’t have the time.

Priya: Please?

Panel 4: Reluctantly agreeing, he helps her in getting them down.

Shug King: Alright, fine.

Voice: Hold it!

Panel 5: Berserkgirl and Juicy Lord surprise and surround them as they let go of the rope sending their leaders crashing to the floor, knocking their gags out of their mouths. Priya yells back at Berserkgirl, offended at her little comment.

Sound FX: Thud!

Berserkgirl: Paws off that rope, slut.

Priya: I’m not a slut! I’ve only been with one guy.

Panel 6: Slightly disoriented, Dorian is still able to look at his co-Leader with a grin and two thumbs up pointing at himself over his accomplishment. Zatman just growls at him.

Zatman: Oh shut-up.

Panel 7: With their attackers being too focused on the rest of his clan, it’s been smooth sailing for Collin as makes his way to an unblocked exit.

Panel 1: The ushers start tearing off their disguises in front of the shocked Uppers, ready to kick some ass.

Laetitia: *singing* Eat the rich: There’s only thing that they’re good for. Eat the rich: Take one bite now – come back for more.

Panel 2: Scene changes to Sentinel HQ as they watch the incident on TV. Robin points to the fiasco as he asks Copper something. Their Leader just takes it casually while sipping coffee from a mug with the clan logo on it, remembering the crap he went with the robot incident in the official comic.

Robin: Should we stop them?

Copper: In a while.

Laetitia: *singing* Eat the rich: I gotta get this off my chest.

Panel 3: A mix of Uppers are either fighting or running away from the overwhelming force of Junkz and the Bangers. Colin tries to sneak him and his fellow judges out amongst the chaos.

Priya: What about the others?

Collin: They can take care of themselves.

Laetitia: *singing” Eat the rich: Take one bite now and spit out the rest.]]>Wed, 13 May 2009 04:22:49 GMTLaetitia: *singing* About ordinary people and how they make you sick. And if callin’ names kicks back on you then I hope this does the trick.

Panel 6: The curtain reveals the band replaced with various members of both clans; some playing music while the others are ready to fight. Both Dorian and Zatman are tied and gagged with Nerf balls jabbed in their mouths to a sandbag as they dangle in midair. Laetitia keeps singing, tearing her wig off as Collin desperately presses the button to summon the robots that aren’t coming.

Laetitia: *singing* ‘Cause I’m sick of all your complainin’ about how about how many bills. And I’m sick of all your bitchin’ ‘bout your poodles and your pills. And I just can’t see no humor about your way of life.

Collin: Damn it, Jeeves, where are the robots?

Panel 7: Split panel with the left side showing Laetita (really into the moment) as she points out into the audience and the right showing the control station that Allan and Oliver have taken over with Jeeves unconscious body, giving each other thumbs-up.

Laetitia: *singing* And I think I can do more for you with this here fork and knife.]]>Wed, 13 May 2009 04:21:59 GMT
Panel 1: Teddy and his mom (who can look anyway you want) are backstage as Teddy is focused on opening a letter in his hands.

Caption: Later that night.

Teddy’s Mom: What’s that, baby?

Teddy: Just something Leatitia gave me.

Panel 2: Close-up of the letter that reads, “Get you and your mom out now.—Laetitia.”

Panel 3: Wearing the stupid wig and a sparkly red dress, Laetitia walks down the stage to where a microphone waits for her as the audience claps at her presence. The stage curtain hiding the band slowly begins to raise a few inches off the ground.

Laetitia Thought: Hope you made the right choice, girl.

Panel 4: Taking the mic in her hands, she begins singing.

Laetitia: *singing* Well I woke up this on the wrong side of the bed and how I got to thinkin’ about all the things you said.

Panel 5: Shocked at her sudden song change, all Collin can do is nervously tug at his collar as Shug King shifts his eyes toward him as he hisses out his displeasure. Also at loss for words, Priya tries to remain positive about it.

The rest of the Uppers (minus Dorian, Jeeves and Zatman) can be seen in the audience as the attendants (Junkz and Bangers members in disguise) start chaining the doors up.

Shug King: You said she was going to sing the theme to Ice Castles.

Colin: I, uh…

Priya: It’s a…nice twist.]]>Sun, 26 Apr 2009 08:36:06 GMTColin tries to reinsure her in his own way as Laetitia seems a tad surprised by it.

Colin: Just forget about him. I know his type; they just want the fame and none of the work.

Laetitia: Excuse me?

Colin: In the world of professional music you got to make some sacrifices. Shakira had to dye her hair, Ritchie Valens changed his name, and how many musicians do you know agree to let to let some radio station beep out certain words before playing them?

Panel 6: Not quite buying it, she holds up the wig to illustrate her point. Unphased, Colin just stands his ground about this.

Leatitia: Like this stupid wig and the commercials.

Colin: I didn’t say it would be painless. Just that you have appeal to audience and your sponsors if you want to get anywhere.

Panel 7: Now feeling a little conflicted yet far from ready to buy what he’s say, she just nods and acknowledges it.

Leatitia: Exactly.

Laetitia Thought: Oh great.]]>Sun, 26 Apr 2009 08:35:38 GMT
Panel 1: Not in the mood to talk to him she lowers her head, resting her forehead against the tips of her fingers, as if a headache is about to arrive. Just like any moment where The Man is involved, Fifty begins a rant.

Laetitia: What do you want Fifty?

Fifty: Wondering why you’re selling out?

Laetitia: Just because I’m doing as I’m told doesn’t mean I like it.

Fifty: That’s what they all say; you know what The Man can do.

Panel 2: Laetitia rolls her eyes and pantomimes the quotations for The Man part. Fifty objects, pointing his finger at her.

Laetitia: Oh not another one of your conspiracy theories. Which one is it this time? How “The Man” has captured other members of the Wayans family so they can’t take over Hollywood.

Fifty: You that’s true. Why else hasn’t there been a decent Wayans brothers’ production in years?

Panel 3: She tries to reinsure him as he half-believes her as he gets ready to leave. Little do they know, Colin can be seen walking towards them.

Laetitia: Forget it, just trust me on this.

Fifty: Alright, but watch yourself ok?

Panel 4: As Fifty walks off, Colin starts talking to her. She’s a little worried if discovered anything that could blow her cover.

Colin: One of your fans?

Laetitia: Ohhhh, how much did you hear?

Colin: About half of it.]]>Tue, 14 Apr 2009 05:00:51 GMTTue, 14 Apr 2009 03:31:12 GMTTue, 14 Apr 2009 02:29:23 GMT
Collin: You can all just wear these Soakies adult diapers outside your pants then.

Laetitia and Contestants: *singing* Choco-Muscles really rule, the All Stars can all go a drool.

Panel 6: With that annoying little task done, Laetitia walks off the set, taking off her wig and wiping her brow. Little does she notice that Fifty is there waiting for her with his arms crossed and a disapproving look.

Laetitia Thought: I sure hope I Don’t have to do that again.

Fifty: Well, well, well ain’t it the little sell-out herself.]]>Tue, 14 Apr 2009 02:28:42 GMT
Page 1

Panel 1: Laetitia (with her wig on) stands with Teddy and the other eight finalists as she gives Collin a piece of her mind about the stupid song they have to do. They’re all at Clint City Beach, wearing Victorian era swimsuits, holding bags of Choco-Muscles as the film crew waits for them.

Laetitia: Out of all the dumb crap we’ve had to do, this is the worst.

Panel 2: Collin just rolls his eyes as he reminds them of their contract and tries not to let her harping annoy him.

Collin: Remember, you all signed a contract.

Laetitia: I know, but does every group song we do have to be a commercial?

Contestants: Yeah!

Panel 3: Her support becomes even more ecstatic seeing that they might have a chance to get out of this as she keeps talking and Collin signals one of the crew members to get something.

Laetitia: Sure it’s corporate music, but can’t we have a little dignity?

Teddy: Right on!

Panel 4: Laetitia gives a confident look as it seems that Collin might actually be listening to reason.

Collin: Very well then you Don’t have to do the song.

Leatitia: Good.]]>Tue, 14 Apr 2009 02:28:09 GMT
Perle: I just…

Panel 9: The damn finally breaks as she throws herself at Kawan and sobs into his chest. Kawan protectively hugs her, allowing her to let it all out.

Perle: God, I miss them so much.

Kawan: It’s finally over, Perle, it’s finally over.

Caption: To be continued…]]>Tue, 14 Apr 2009 02:27:35 GMT
Panel 1: The scene returns to the present as Amy casually puts the lid back on her ice cream. Something about this doesn’t quite click with Kawan.

Kawan: You sure Don’t seem that upset about it.

Amy: Who says I’m not?

Panel 2: Amy looks a little regretful in her subtle way as she puts the ice cream back in its bag.

Amy: I can’t change the past and I really Don’t want to try so I decided to sit back and let your little outburst take its course.

Panel 3: A bit of anger burns inside Perle as she watches Amy get up.

Amy: Didn’t think you’d go this far, but maybe I deserved it.

Panel 4: She struggles to remain polite as they watch Amy walk off with her bag.

Amy: Just promise me that you’ll be more careful next time.

Panel 5: Concerned, Kawan turns to her as she shakes with anger.

Kawan: Perle are you alright?

Perle: I…

Panel 6: Unable to contain it for a second longer, Perle starts screaming at the top of her lungs in pure anger at Amy as if she was still there.

Perle: You think that’s going to fix everything?! That your dodgy little apology is going to make me forget about my family? I’ll never see them again just because you didn’t think we had any feelings you fascist monster!

Panel 7: Her rage intensifies to the point that she’s shaking.

Perle: Because nothing you do will ever make me forgive you!]]>Tue, 14 Apr 2009 02:25:59 GMT
Panel 1: Amy reminisces as she digs out another spoonful of ice cream.

Amy: After a while you just turn everything off. It keeps you sane, but…

Panel 2: Flashback scene of Amy emotionlessly killing Perle’s mom as she begs for her life as her husband and two sons lie died around her. In the right corner you can see Perle hiding and looking on terror.

Amy Caption: You lose something in the process.

Panel 3: Seeing enough death, Perle’s tear-filled eyes glow red with her fangs bared and her fingers becoming more claw-like.

Perle: No more.

Panel 4: She pounces, nearly hitting Amy as she just barely dodges her attack.

Amy Caption: Then something happens.

Panel 5: Even more tears fall from Perle’s eyes as she slashes blindly at her.

Amy Caption: You wake-up, smell the death around you.

Panel 6: Amy retaliates via a swift kick to the stomach.

Panel 7: Snapping out of her rage, Perle looks up at Amy in fear as she towers over her, about to drive a stake into her.

Panel 8: Coming to an epiphany, Amy stops in her tacks.

Amy Caption: And finally realize how much you suck.

Panel 9: Tossing the stake aside, she turns her back to a confused Perle and leaves.

Amy Caption: And I have you to thank for it.]]>Thu, 26 Mar 2009 06:35:36 GMT
Panel 1: Refusing to give up, Darth grits his teeth in pain as he tries to reach for his uzi.

Darth: Stay out of this bitch; I’ll deal with you later.

Panel 2: Amy says something off-panel as another stake is launched into his other hand.

Amy: Wrong answer.

Panel 3: Sitting on top of the hood, Perle (whose eyes are now back to normal) looks down at him, little worried for his state. Amy casually cracks her knuckles and stretches after a job well done.

Perle: Is he…

Amy: Don’t worry; I called for back-up.

Panel 4: Moments later, Darth hisses a threat as he is carried away on a stretcher (by Marco and Larry), his wounds quickly bandaged. Kawan’s arm is in a sling as he stands with Amy and Perle. Perle gazes up on the object of her fear and obsession. Though she is scared and angry at her, Perle remembers her manners and thanks Amy for her help and is having a trouble really looking at her. Amy is just sitting on a stoop, eating her ice cream with a spork.

Darth: Second I get out of here, you’re coughing up blood.

Larry: Yeah, yeah she hears ya.

Perle: Uh, thank you, but why did you help us?

Panel 5: Amy just eats her ice cream as if nothing important is going on.

Amy: Because I owed you.

Panel 6: Perle and Kawan look surprised as she sucks on the spork for a bit.

Amy: It’s funny; I Don’t usually remember most of my adventures.]]>Thu, 26 Mar 2009 05:00:59 GMT
Panel 1: Kawan tries to dodge the bullets as Darth is very pleased to regain the upper hand, while still chocking Perle (as she desperately attempts to claw at his fingers) with his other one.

Darth: Dance, bitch, dance.

Darth Thought: This might be easier than I thought.

Panel 2: Her consciousness starting to fade, Perle continues her valiant effort to break free while scared for her friend’s life.

Perle Thought: Sorry Kawan…

Panel 3: Out of nowhere, a wooden stake is launched, impaling itself into Darth’s right shoulder blade hard enough to make him let go of both the uzi and Perle’s neck.

Darth: Oww!

Panel 4: Attempting to pry the stake out, Darth is pissed over his work being disturbed as the hand that was once strangling Perle is resting against the car.

Darth: Oh what now?

Panel 5: Another stake is launched, pinning his hand to the hood of the car.

Panel 6: All three of them (Perle tries as she’s still wheezing) turn to see Amy standing ready with a hand full of wooden stakes and a plastic bag with ice cream in it resting by her feet. Her face is calm determined as she makes her demands.

Amy: Move and I’ll crucify you.]]>
