Chapter 4: Metal
After a tour around the zoo Marlene and Brandon finally got back to their own habitat.
“Thanks for showing me around the zoo Marlene.”
“No problem at all,” said Marlene.
“And I tell you there’s a lot strange animals around this zoo, especial those penguins, and lemurs.”
“Yeah I know what you mean, but their really nice once you get to know them.”
“Even that one lemur that thinks he’s king,” raising his eyebrow.
“Well yeah he becomes a pain most of the time, but I see the good in people,” saying with a little smile.
“You know that’s why I like you Marlene I never meat a person such as nice as you. Ever one else I meat is just either mean, obnoxious, or just playing weird.”
“Thanks Brandon that’s really nice of you to say.”
Both of them where happy, both knowing that there are all ready becoming good friends. A few minutes later of talking Brandon deiced to listen to his MP3 player. Then Marlene noticed the little device, and then asked him.
“What’s that?”
“Oh this is my MP3 it lets me listen to my music.”
“Really what kind of music do you listen to?”
“I listen to heavy metal.”
Marlene looked confuse not familiar with that kind of music.
“Heavy metal, I never heard of that kind of music before.”
“Well can’t say I’m surprise need to have a different kind of taste for this kind of music.”
Then he asked.
“Do you want to listen to a song?”
“Um… okay.”
Then Brandon stands up, and to go sit next to Marlene on her rock bed, and turn on his MP3. He stared to look for a song then a found a good song to show her.
“Ah hears one from my favorite band Metallica. This song is called The Memory Remains.”
He put one ear phone in his ear, and Marlene put the other one in her ear. Then he pressed play, and the song stared.
"Fortune Fame
Mirror Vain
Gone Insane
But the memory remains
Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd, cry the
Nowhere tears of honor
Like twisted vines that grow
Hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of already faded
Prima Donna
Fortune Fame
Mirror Vain
Gone Insane-
Insane
Fortune, Fame
Mirror Vain
Gone Insane-
But the memory remains
Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the Hollywood sun sets behind
Your back
Just listen they play my song
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune Fame
Mirror Vain
Gone Insane-
Insane
Fortune Fame
Mirror vain
Gone Insane-
Dance little tin Goddess
Nananananana nananada nananananana
Nanananadana
Nanananana nananada nananananana
Nanananadana
Drift away
Fade away
Little tin goddess
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black
Fortune Fame
Mirror Vain
Gone Insane-
Insane
Fortune Fame
Mirror Vain
Gone Insane-
But the memory remains
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black…
The memories remain
Yeah
To this faded prima Donna
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah!
(Guitar Solo for about 20 seconds)
Dance little tin goddess dance
Nanananana nananada nananananana
Nanananadna
Nananananana nananada nanananana
Nanananadana"
(End of song)
After the song was over Brandon turned to Marlene.
“So what do you think?”
“Um… well it’s definitely nothing like I ever heard of,” not really knowing what to say.
“You don’t like don’t you,” saying straight forward.
“No I wouldn’t say that is just…” she paused, and then Brandon interrupted.
“Look its ok if you don’t like it, not everyone does, I just wish you don’t judge me.”
“Now why would I do that?”
“Well because… you see,” he paused for a second then he continued.
“Back at my old zoo I was the only one who listen to this kind of music, and everyone would judge me, and it just made me feel sad.”
Then he put his head down looking sad. Then Marlene spook up.
“Aw come on Brandon its okay, look I promise I won’t judge you, do you believe me?”
Brandon just shook his head, but it did make him feel better. Then she gave him a little hug.
“Thanks Marlene I really appreciate it,” just hugging her back.
“All right it’s getting late we better go to bed,” said Marlene while yawing.
“Yeah I’m getting tired too.”
Then they both went to bed.

Aw that was sweet of Marlene not to judge Brandon. Well hoped you liked that chapter. In the next chapter there will be another song, but only this time it won’t come out of a MP3 it’s going to be coming out of a guitar. In other words Brandon going to be rocking out with the guitar. Keep reading, and review.

hey have you noticed the big piece of stone in central park? the one where crazy Marlene took Julian? the place where
the lost treasure of the golden squril had something to do with it? have you ever wondered what it was?
well that, is an obelisk.
ancient Egyptians built it thousands of years ago, and it still survives today. they crated 3, and one, known as cleopatras needle, is located in london, another in paris, and one in new york, central park.
it is covered in hieroglyphics, carved by the most skilled scribes. artisans(crafts people) chipped it piece by piece it to perfection, and they stand almost 68 feet high. theese are magnificent monuments, and i was suprized to see one in the penguins of Madagascar.
well i hope you enjoyed your hisory lesson! :3
