Who knew Wakanda would be such a paradise? Anyway, I got word from Daddy Banks that reinforcements were coming to help me lead the defense against Sonata's droids at Wakanda, so we set off to prepare for the invasion. When the reinforcements arrived, I saw a face I never thought would help. "CONNIE?" I yelled, as I ran over to my friend. Connie hugged me because she heard of the attack I had with the orcs and she wanted to make sure I was OK. I told her that I was, and that we have to get ready. I then saw a short small boy with a pink-red shirt with a yellow star on the front. I dunno why he's here as part of the reinforcements until Connie introduced me to him and vice versa. "Oh, silly me. Steven, I'd like you to meet my friend Aria. We took those lightsaber classes together before we were attacked. And Aria, this is my friend Steven Universe. My plan to help for reinforcements is to fuse with Steven and we can have some sword-and-shield action going on." Connie explained to me, as Steven and I shook hands with each other.

There were a couple more people Connie introduced to me because Connie explained that these people were handpicked by Cupcakekitty to help secure Wakanda from invasion. First, there was a green woman with triangle hair, and to be honest, I thought she was a pony disguised as a human. Connie introduced the both of us to each other, and the green woman, who calls herself "Peridot", reveals she made her own armored suit similar to the one Trixie has, but this one can change it's shape so that it can fit on any species, such as a human, a siren in siren form, a pony, anything. I'm not even gonna question how that would work, because if I do, I think my brain's gonna explode. Anyway, Connie also introduced me to a blue woman named Lapis Lazuli. Lapis appeared to be similar to Peridot, except she looked more like an exiled princess rather than an engineer. I was then told of her waterbending abilities, and thought of how much damage this could do to the droids, so I accepted her help with ease.

There weren't that many reinforcements, mainly because 4 people came to our aide, but seeing what they have, I'm confident that Wakanda is now in good hands. This confidence, however, wouldn't last long as everyone heard a small thumping from far away. "cla-thump! cla-thump! cla-thump!" when the noise, and we all looked up ahead to see the one thing we've been waiting for all day: The droids are on their way here! And there was only one thing that would terrify me out of anything in the battle: Lord Grievous is leading the attack. I activated my lightsaber and rallied up the troops to defend our allies at all costs. Huron, with a batallion of elves behind him, pulled out his bow, and all the troops followed. One by one, the droids slowly fell to the arrows of the elves. But the droids blaster fire could stand a chance against the archers of Middle Earth. Steven and Connie danced a while before the battle started and before my very eyes, transformed 2 small children into a massive human.

The being, calling itself "Stevonnie" pulled out Connie's lightsaber, and created a small pink shield in the other hand, and just charged right into battle, headfirst into the droids! I admired their courage, but something didn't feel right. And then it hit me. From out of the corner of my eye, Lord Greivous came charging at Stevonnie like a giant bullet. Grievous twirled his green and blue sabers around in a blaze of amazing speed, so fast even that I only saw green and blue circles, and not spinning blades. Stevonnie, however, gathered their wits and blocked incoming attacks with Steven's shield and counter attacked with Connie's lightsaber. Connie's purple blade met with Grievous' blue and green blades every chance they had, and they danced with amazing speed and style. For a moment there, I actually thought to myself that Connie might be a Jedi in disguise.

I couldn't watch Stevonnie fight Grievous for too long, because the droids were making their way past our defenses. Huron decided that he would wear Peridot's armor and even the odds against the droids. Limlugeth just scoffed and continued firing her arrows at the incoming enemy. As we continued fighting, the droids managed to ambush us by having droids come around on the other side. Our defenses were surrounded, and we were on the verge of surrender. Just at that moment though, Peridot grabbed me by the arm as the both of us hid inside a building so she could tell me some sort of plan.

Peridot theorized that the Battle Droids were powered by Sonata's enchanted singing voice, and that if a stronger song were to break through the droids, then they'd simply fall apart. I almost forgot my lightsaber was also a guitar, to be honest. I then remembered that I didn't get guitar lessons along with my lightsaber lessons. That was then Black Panther showed up inside the same building to help me come to my senses again after what happened last time. "If you truly want to fight these droids, you don't need some music lessons! Just play what's in your heart!" Panther said, before he jumped into the heat of battle, covering the building Peridot and I were in shortly before I would emerge and ready my lightsaber in guitar mode.

As I rocked the song that was playing in my heart, the droids that were nearby would start glowing green and collapse in defeat. I then asked Peridot to build an amplifier that would reach across all of Wakanda and end the invasion in one fell swoop. Peridot said that she can do that, but that it would take some time. I then contacted Huron, Limlugeth, Daddy Banks, Lapis, and Stevonnie. "I have a plan. Peridot says she can build an amplifier that can short circuit the droids in 5 seconds, but we need to give her more time if she's to finish the amp!" I told everyone, as they surrounded the building. Droid after droid, they slowly surrounded the building, and we're not sure if we could take much more of it anymore. They just kept on coming. Once Peridot was done the amplifier, I plugged my guitar in and played the same song that was playing in my heart. The boom of the song just had all the droids glowing green from Sonata's song being cut off and caused them all to collapse. It seemed like we hat this battle in the bag.

I made a role call to see who's not dead and I noticed Stevonnie wasn't here to defend Peridot. I then remembered that she was out dueling with Lord Grievous, and I rushed over to see how she was. The moment I got there however, Stevonnie reverted back into Steven and Connie, both of them were unconscious, and Grievous was this close to killing him. That was before I extended my hand out and grabbed Grievous' robot hands with the Force. "You cannot pass!" I told Lord Grievous as he no longer payed attention to Connie and Steven and slowly walked over towards me. "You WILL not pass!" I yelled as the pace was getting faster and faster. I started seeing those shadows of me again, knowing that that would mean I would fall unconscious again, but this time, I paid no mind to them. "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!" I boomed as I lunged at the land Grievous was running on, causing Grievous' ghost to leave the body of Lord Tirek. Tirek was confused as all heck, but we just covered him in a blanket and put him inside. Daddy Banks was then opening a portal to tell the PBB that the Battle of Wakanda was a success, and that Sonata's droids are diminishing. I certainly would call it that as well on my end. I wonder how well it's doing on Adagio's end.
