Stuck in the past

rocky road.

It’s been just under a month since Kup and Leia have been missing. Leia is getting their bandages taken off and checked out by Spike's father named Ben. As Ben takes off the bandages he looks at her ”leia those are healed dear. Do you have any pain when you move your arm?” He asked her as she moves it ”nope no pain.” She said as she looks at it and she sees large vein like scars up her arm. ”good, good now you ready for your leg and torso” he asked ”I guess so.” She sighed a little. On her torso is a large scrape scar same with her leg. Who knows what happened to he arm but it was different from the other scars she has but needless to say she wasn’t used to them and she is probably feeling self conscious ”thank you sir. It means a lot to me how kind your family is.” Leia said with a smile ”you’re welcome, you really are a special little thing” he had said back ”you and your friend have been a blessing to this household and I mean it.” He smiles at her “thanks, really.” She said getting up and heading out the door into her room to put on a hoodie then she heads into spikes room ”alright I’m ready for practice” she then sees a new guy who’s not Spike, Matt, or Kup ”wait who’s this?” She asked ”hey I’m frank. You must be leia, I’ve heard a lot about you” leia noticed how friendly he was. He looked about Kups age. ”oh it’s nice to meet you frank, you’ve got it right I’m leia. So what is he doing here if you don’t mind me asking.” She asked softly ”oh right how rude of me.” Spike said ”he’s our driver, we put some money together and got a cheep van that just needs a little work but luckily enough for me I’ve already fixed it.” He said feeling proud of himself ”wait when did you buy that?” Leia asked confused ”like 3 weeks ago around.” Kup said, ”surprise?” Then Matt piped up ”oh one more thing! We have to go on a road trip today!” ”oh okay? Just in the van? Or?” ”yes! Let’s go!” Matt said going to the door with all of them following them. Kup, leia, and spike were sitting in the trunk of the van while Matt and frank were in the front. After a few minutes we arrived at a storage locker. ”Matt what are we doing here?” ”after a long time of saving I’ve done it. I found this” he said opening it ”veula!” It’s a full matching band set that is black white and red ”no you didn’t! How much did this cost?!” Spike asked amazed ”a old band broke up so they were selling it off for fairly cheap” Matt shrugged ”but they are a beauty aren’t they? C’mon let’s practice!”

Cherry sat in leia old room sitting on her love sack they used to watch shows in there all the time. Watching the show they used to all the time together, a new episode came out. Cherry couldn’t help but cry watching it, not because of their favorite character almost died, but because of how much they missed leia. They curled up in a ball and began to cry harder.

”hunny? Where are you going?” Someone asked to their boyfriend packing up ”I’m finding leia and kup. I’m going to my sisters house for a while. I’ll call every night I swear!” He said ”you know you’ve always had a soft spot for kids like that.” He said softly ”what do you mean by that-” he got cut off ”remember our band? Or our old band. Those kids your family took in?” He looked at him ”yeah I remember but what are you getting at?” He asked ”I don’t know just was thinking of that recently. What were their names again?” ”I’m not sure it was a while ago ya’know.” ”heh, yeah it was but it was a good trip down memory lane. Have fun looking for them okay? Good luck.” ”thanks love.” He kisses him then he leaves. Then rain started to pour he had driven clear to a house. The person came to the front door and knocked. ”hello- oh hey spike are you okay?” Frank asked ”no! Why am I the last to find out about Kup and leia going missing!?” spike yelled ”frank dear who's at the door- mina.” ”pennie.” ”it’s spike thank you.” ”right.” Pennie said, ”now what the heck are you doing here?” She asked ”leia and kup are missing.” He sighs ”yes I know.” She sighs ”why am I the last to find out?! They were my buddies they’d come over to my place everyday almost and I should have been one of the first to know!” Spike was clearly upset ”well I didn’t like Olivia around you.” She said ”their name is leia.” ”look. I don’t care I know her name is legally leia she will always be Olivia to me” she said. ”pennie. That’s not how it works.” He said before he heard ”UNCLE SPIKE” before he knew it cherry was hugging him

”that practice went great!” Matt said beaming ”and leia! You are a star! The people will love you when we go on tonight!” Leia was stunned ”t…tonight?!” ”yep tonight!” Spike just stood there ”you mean tonight, tonight!” ”yes! We are playing in the local bar! Tonight at 6!” Matt said ”though we are going on tonight we do need a little more work. Shall we practice more?” Matt asked ”hell yeah!” Leia yelled ”that’s what I like to hear!” Matt yelled back. Kup looked at leia, he’s never seen her like this, he blushes softly ”alright kup you start us off” Matt said as he gets ready to start. Kup, who is on the drums started up then leia and spike started and last but not least Matt started the lyrics, leia was his backup singer but in some songs she was the main singer. Before they knew it, it was 5:45. They rushed to the bar got set up and then at 6:05 Matt said ”alright guys! This is our band, our temporary name is Utahs Punks!” There aren’t that many people in the crowd but they seem interested ”hit it!” After the little concert was over it was 6:55 and when the lights weren’t on them they could see the crowd grew a lot, then they all cheered ”thank you we are Utahs punks!” Matt yelled then leia said ”thank you! have a good night!” They had fan, real fans, once they got home it was almost 7:20 ”where were you guys?”  Alice asked ”sorry mum, we got carried away with hanging out with Matt.” Spike said ”yes sorry ma’am.” Kup said softly. Alice hugs them all ”I was so worried!” She said to them ”we are really sorry miss Alice”
