The note

(I know I skipped the doctor zone files I just couldn't figure out how to fit Mila in without mostly writing Sara out of the episode)
Season 1 episode 3
The next morning I was able to avoid my parents I figured it could wait till after school. So me and Milo lugged our bags to school.
"Wow, my backpack sure is heavy today," Milo said as we got off the bus.
"What you got in there, Osmium?," Melissa asked, as the boys looked at her questioningly.
"You know. The densest element? Periodic table," I explained
"Boom," Melissa shouted.
"Actually, it's a doctor's note. The school lets me turn them in in bulk at the end of the month. That way, the doctor only has to sign the signature page instead of all the individual excuses. Mila keeps a record of all our adventures, so it makes it easier to catalog," Milo explained.
"You keep a record?," Zack asked
"Yeah, on my phone. The kangaroos, the tangerine fight at Mardi Gras, the asteroid...," I said, listing off the different incidents.
"The Llama Incident," Melissa reminded her
"Wait, so you've been taking pictures of this...Holy cow!," Zack said looking at Milas phone.
"Yep, we get around," I said. A little too much though if I was being honest.
"How long is your selfie stick?," Zack asked me.
"Anyway, I've got to turn these bad boys in today or else I have a month of unexcused absences and...," Milo said before Elliot stopped them.
"Stop," he said, pausing to let his stop sign turn around to reveal the words 'Milo and Mila' on the other side.
"Milo and Mila," he finished. I rolled my eyes when would it go through this idiot's head that Murphy's law didn't affect me, just my twin who I happened to spend a lot of time with?
"Hi, Elliot," Milo said.
"How do you stop people who aren't named Milo or Mila?," Zack asked him.
"I don't turn the sign around," Elliot explained.
"Ooooooh," we all exclaimed.
"Besides, there's only two people in this town I need to stop and their middle names are both danger,"
"Is that true?," Zack asked.
"No. It's pronounced "dahn-ziay"," Melissa said.
"It's our grandmother's maiden-name," Milo siad.
"Wait, so you guys have the same middle name?," Zack asked
"Yep," I said. What when I was born 2 seconds after Milo too parents who had been expecting 1 kid. Suffice to say I was a bit of a surprise.
"Enough. You guys have to do what I say, and as the duly appointed public Safety Czar, it is my job...," Elliot said.
"Um, your badge says volunteer crossing guard," Zack said pointing at his badge.
"And this one says "ask me about my strawberry waffle supreme"," Melissa added.
"They're quite tasty and they're half price this week!," Elliot said.
"Well, as delicious as that sounds Elliot, we have to go to school," Milo said.
"I have my eye on you Murphys, and I never rest. In fact, I sleep with this stop sign," Elliot said pointing at me and Milo.
"If you never rest, how do you sleep?," Zack asked him
"Very restlessly," Elliot informed them.
"Oooooooh," we exclaimed again. A truck rushed past us and the signature page to Milo's doctor's note was blown up and over a tree.
"Aaaaahh!," me and him shouted.
"Aaaaaaahh!," Zack and Melissa shouted
"Without that signature page, you'll have a month of unexcused absences," Zack said.
"Holy cow! I'm going to have to repeat the seventh grade,"
"Not if I have anything to say about it," I said, putting my note back in my satchel. What I missed just as much school, but I was a bit less accident prone.
"Don't worry Milo, we'll help you find that note," Melissa said.
"But how? This is ridiculous. I mean, that note could be... oh there it is," Zack said pointing down to the gutters.
"I'll get it," Milo said, reaching down to retrieve the note from the gutter but it was whisked away by the wheels of a passing group of cyclists.
"Murphy's Law. Boom!," Melissa said.
"Are you going to be saying that a lot?," Zack asked her
"I'm thinking about it," Melissa said smirking
"After that note!," me and Milo shouted as we ran after his doctor's note.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On Danville Street the four of us ran after the bikers.
"Hey biker gang, come back!," Milo shouted.
"I don't think you'd call them a gang," Melissa said
"What's a group of bikers then, a gaggle?," I asked.
"I think it's a pod," Zack said.
"No, that's whales," Melissa said. The note flew away from the bikers.
"Oh, there it is! I got it. I got it," Zack said, running towards the note but it was snagged by a spy drone.
"What the?," Zack asked, annoyed.
"What was that?," Milo asked.
"It looks like some kind of spy drone," I said looking up. The spy drone brushed through the top of a tree and the doctor's note came free. Milo tried to grab it but ran into a garbage can.
"Oh great, I'm covered in garbage again," Milo said, annoyed. All of us tried to grab it but it was blown away and ended up flying through a window at the top of an office building.
"Milo, wouldn't it be easier to get your doctor to sign a new one?," Melissa asked out breath.
"It's Tuesday. He's playing golf somewhere. We'd never find him," Milo said.
"One, two, three, four, five... It... It's on the seventh floor. Come on," I said counting the floors. We frantically ran into the office building. We climbed up to the seventh floor and found an office covered with piles of paper.
"Oh no, there's paper everywhere," Melissa said.
"I guess they haven't gone digital yet," Zack said.
"My note could be anywhere," Milo exclaimed.
"We'll find it. Come on, let's split up," I told my twin. We methodically checked the entire floor. Finally, Milo saw the note as someone put a cup of coffee on it.
"Excuse me. Ma'am. But would you mind lifting up your coffee cup please?," Milo asked her. The office worker lifted up her coffee cup.
"Thank you," Milo said
"Oh my gosh," she said, picking up the note.
"This coffee stain is a perfect likeness of Franklin Eugene Austin, inventor of the ant farm," the office worker said. Then all the workers began calmoring around her. The office cubicle was flooded with workers that wanted to see the note.
"That's my doctor's... no!," Milo said, trying to tell them. The note was blown out an open window by a newly turned on fan.
"Seriously?," Zack asked. We moved to the window and looked outside.
"I don't believe it. It's a ticker tape parade. You're sure you can't get your doctor to sign a new note?," Zack asked him
"I told you there's no way to find him," Milo said frowning
"That's it. It's over," Zack said.
"No it's not over! When we signed up to be Milo's friend, and twin Mila, we knew it wouldn't be easy," Melissa said, nodding towards me. 
"I don't remember signing anything," Zack said.
"Don't worry I got it covered," I said, showing Zack a signed warranty. Zack just stared freaked out. What things happen.
"So, are we going to find that note?," Melissa asked Milo.
"That's a good question," Milo said
"You're supposed to say yes, Milo," I whispered to him.
"Well then, yes," Milo said.
"That's the spirit," Melissa said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back on Danville Street there was an astronaut in the middle of the road.
"The parade must be for that astronaut," Milo said.
"Oh, it's not for that astronaut. This parade is celebrating the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of ticker tape parades," a janitor from behind us said.
"Then what's the astronaut for?," Melissa asked.
"They're just giving him a ride somewhere. Very slowly because he likes to sit up there," the Janitor siad. Diogee emerged from the crowd as Zack spotted the note stuck to the astronauts back.
"The astronaut's back!," I shouted pointing towards him.
"Yes, we know he's back. We all just saw him," Milo said
"No, I mean the...," I said. Diogee interrupted me with a bark.
"Excuse me for a second Mila. What is it boy?," Milo said, bending down to listen to the dog. Diogee barked and pointed at the astronaut.
"Hey everybody! Diogee found the note! It's on the astronauts back!," Milo said.
"Eh, fine," I sighed. Even what the dog had to say was more important than what I did.
"Hey! Mr Astronaut! Hey! Hey! Can you hear me? Hey! Can you hear me?," Milo asked, banging on the car. The note detached from the astronaut's back.
"There! I got it! I got it! I got it!," Milo shouted, reaching for the note.
"Milo, look out!," I screamed, holding Milo back as the note got swept up by a street sweeper.
"Oh well, have fun in high school guys," Milo said dejectedly
"No! You know the twin code. No one gets left behind," I said. I didn't care Milo could keep on stopping me from regular kid experiences but he would always be my twin no matter what.
"Boom," Melissa said.
"That's right! I'm going after it!,"  Zack said, running after it and promptly smacking right into the back of the street sweeper.
"Ah! Wow, that's going a lot slower than I thought," Zack said.
"After that slow moving street sweeper!," Milo shouted. We ran after the street sweeper.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrived at the Danville recycling center and found piles of rubbish everywhere.
"Ok. Could be worse," I said
"How? How could this be worse?," Zack asked.
"Eh, you could accidentally get your head caught in a helicopter door that flies you out over the ocean where it drops you straight into a pod of ravenous orca that rip you apart, leaving nothing but your bones for the hungry crabs in the inky depths at the bottom of the ocean!," Melissa said.
"Wow... I mean...," Zack said
"Yeah, I'm... I'm not sure how to respond to that," Milo said
"Aw come on you babies," Melissa said.
"Yeah come on," I said, leading them into the recycling center. We spent hours looking for it until Melissa found it.
"Milo, I see it," She shouted, jumping down onto a conveyor belt.
"That's great," Milo said. Melissa grabbed the note but her shoelace got caught in the conveyor belt.
"My foot is stuck. And I'm about to be shredded and recycled!," Melissa shouted.
"Oh no, that's not great. The being shredded part, not the recycling part because recycling is an important way to...," Milo said
"Milo!," Melissa shouted.
"Oh! Oh, I'm sorry. On my way!," Milo said, jumping on a crate and hanging from a rope.
"Here I come Melissa. Don't worry I'm... Yaahh!," Milo said as the rope holding up his crate snapped. Milo fell on a rising platform and was carried away.
"I'll get there. Don't worry," Milo said.
"I'm worrying," Melissa said as she was brought closer to the shredder.
"You know I bet that whole thing with the helicopters and the orcas is looking pretty good right now," Milo said. The chain from which Milo's platform was being lifted snapped. The platform dumped Milo and knocked a segment of a pipe into the shredder that Melissa was headed for. This stopped the machine and the conveyor belt, giving Melissa enough time to get her shoe unstuck.
"Ok. That was kinda awesome," Zack said from the ground.
"Doctor's note, Boom!," Melissa said reaching Zack
"Melissa, you got the note!," Zack said as Melissa handed Milo the note.
"Please excuse... Lola Sunderguard? This isn't my note. Who's Lola Sunderguard?," Milo asked.
"Oh great! You found my doctor's note. Thanks," Lola said, grabbing it from mIlo.
"Bam!," siad a boy from behind her who looked like Melissa.
"Well, I... I guess we're gonna be going," Lola said.
"Yeah, us too. Um," Milo said as the two said bye. Then their friends said bye as well. Dioge came up and brushed Milos leg.
"Diogee, where'd you get this?," he asked Diogee, grabbing the note out of Diogees mouth.
"Hey, it's your doctor's note!," Zack said
"Life has a strange way of working out. Good boy Diogee," I said petting the dog.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We made it back to the school crossing on time.
"Well, we have plenty of time to turn in these doctor's no...," Milo started.
"Stop!, " Elliot said, thumbing the button to turn around the sign but nothing happened
"Hang on a second, this was... this was just working," Elliot whined.
"We're just trying to get to school! Why can't you leave us alone!," Melissa said, annoyed.
"Because Milo and Mila are dangers to this town, and I'm going to protect it from them. I'm like the wind! I'm everywhere and nowhere! You're never going to see me c...," Elliot said. While we exchanged glances at each other, Elliot got struck by a ray and vanished.
"Ok wow. That was impressive," Zack said.
"Yeah, I... I don't know how you did that Elliot. But we're going to go to school now, so, see you tomorrow, okay," Melissa said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
School had been pretty uneventful that day so me and Milo went home smiling. When we got there our parents were waiting for me to talk about the letter. Milo oblivious as always walked upstairs. I went into the kitchen to see my mom and dad.
"Hey.. guys," I said
"What's this," My mom asked holding up a letter
"Ok so I may or may not have applied for a scholarship at B.O.O.M.S and that may or may not be the acceptance letter," I admitted
"B.O.O.M.S ?," My mom asked after starting at me for the good part of the century.
"Like the Boyle Oppenheimer Official Magnet School?," My dad asked
"Yes," I admitted
"Why didn't you tell us?," mom asked
"Because I know you would just say that Milo needs me and that I can't go," I explained
"Well that's true Milo does need you," my dad said
"But I want to go," I told them
"So what about Milo?," my mom asked putting down the letter.
"So? It's always about Milo! What about what I want?," I snapped
"Listen we just want you to make sure that Milo's ok with this," my dad said
"Whatever it's always about him anyway," I said grabbing the letter and storming off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked into my room I would tell Milo later right now I needed to be alone.
