Halo: The Interlopers

"Start spreadin' the news," Mark sang to himself.

"I'm leavin' today," Twilight joined in, smiling.

“I want to be a part of it,” Wall sang.

“New Yoke, New Yoke,” Helia continued.

One by one, inhabitants of the city and soldiers alike joined in.

“These vagabond shoes,” A human male joined.

“Are longing to stray,” A griffon female added.

“Right through the very heart of it,” A firestallion chimed in.

“New Yoke, New Yoke,” Carpenter continued.

“I wanna wake up in a city that doesn’t sleep,” Alexander sang.

“And find I’m king of the hill,” Mark continued.

“Top of the heap,” Twilight sang.

“These little town blues,” Lukas jumped in.

“Are melting away,” Svetlana added.

“I’ll make a brand new start of it,” Mark resumed.

“In ol’ New Yoke!” The whole street seemed to sing.

“If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere!” Mark was smiling more than he thought was possible, especially considering he was still covered in bruises and cuts.

“It’s up to you, New Yoke, New Yoke!” The street sang.

“New Yoke, New Yoke,” Twilight chirped.

“I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm A-number-one, top of the list,
King of the hill, A-number-one!” The group sang.

“These little town blues are melting away.
I'm gonna make a brand new start of it in old New Yoke!
A-a-a-nd if I can make it there, I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you, New Yoke, New Yo-o-o-o-ke!” The whole city seemed to be singing now.

“New Yo-o-o-o-o-o-oke!” Mark finished.
