You are an Agent underneath Burst's guidance as you two have been best friends since Elementary throughout High school together. You have all been investigating every single day and have been helping each other out through tough times. But a few weeks later,you have been acting off lately. Every time Burst tries to ask what's on your mind,you avoid his eyes,talk bullshit and shut yourself off. It's like if you're stuck in chains,stuck in your poison in your mind without a way out. The case has gone cold as you saw a note,saying that Detective Bayblade needed you in the interrogation room right away,ASAP. You managed to make it over to the interrogation room as you opened the door. You can see Burst,leaned against the chair as he looked at you not in a combative way, but in a familiar,steady rhythm.

Burst:Sit.

Burst spoke in seriousness but concern as he patted a seat on the chair. You slowly walked over to him as you sat down. He starts to hum,the low and rhythmic tune fills the silence. You knew this was going to be a long talk. He noticed the signs of self doubt so he grabbed his microphone to sing his calm voice which brought you to your surprise.

Verse 1:

Burst:There's a poison in the well,a venom in the vine, You're tasting all the shadows,you're tangled in the twine. The clues are scattered,broken,a mirror on the floor, And every piece you pick up just feels wrong and nothing more. You think the failure's dripping from your own two clumsy hands, That you've gone and missed the whole damn thing,not following the plans.

Chorus:

Burst:But Listen,(Your OC.),Listen close. Forget the tangled mess. That Rust on the machine just hides the Shine and nothing less. That negative you're spinning,all the darkness in your head, Ain't the truth of who you are,it's just a ghost of things unsaid. We'll wipe away the worry,we'll polish up the proof, Cause beneath the dust and scratches,You're solid. That's the truth.

You slowly looked down as you tried to process his words but your thoughts are swirling around again like a storm. Burst's soft singing voice got louder to bring you to the reality of the situation.

Verse 2:

Burst:You're fixated on the scratches,the chips along the side, Forgetting every time you saved my skin and turned the tide. Remember last November,with the Viper's crew in town? You saw the lie behind the smile,before it all came down. It's the insight in your soul, that's what makes the engine run, Not the fleeting fear you feel when the case is set to stun.

Chorus:

Bridge:

Burst:The poison can't survive in the light, you know that well. So let's turn the lamps up,send that bitter thought to hell. We'll re-examine everything,with clear and steady eyes, And find the true reflection where the tangled poison dies.

Burst slowly scooted over to you as he placed his hand on your shoulder in comfort. His determination in his eyes sparkle as his singing voice stands tall.

Final Chorus:

Burst:But Listen,(Your OC.),Listen close. Forget the tangled mess. That Rust on the machine just hides the Shine and nothing less. That negative you're spinning,all the darkness in your head. Ain't the truth of who you are,it's just a ghost of things unsaid. We'll wipe away the worry,we'll polish up the proof, Cause beneath the dust and scratches,You're solid. That's the truth.

Burst speaks softly,as the rhythmic tune fades to a simple,plucked string melody as he squeezes your shoulder.

Burst:Now,look at me,partner. Get that fog out of your head. You're my eyes out there. You're a damn good agent. Now, let's go find the real poison.
