Chapter Four.
Thursday morning came as Jerrica walked into Starlight Music to see Harry and the other security guard glaring at each other. "Enough glaring towards each other as of now or else."
They stopped looking at each other to look at her. "Morning ma'am,"
Jerrica looked at the guard that Eric hired. "I will be seeing you tonight at 5pm, come up to my office at that time." With that said, she walked to the elevator and walked in.
The guard looked at Harry and asked, "I don't think that is a good thing."
Harry just shrugged as he went back to the desk, flipping the approved employee list to let into the building. He looked up at the other guard. "You better get to learn who is accepted here and who's not, Brad."
Brad turned to look at him and walked over as he started to examine who was allowed in for that day. He noticed that Eric Raymond's name was on the list for that day. He looked at Harry. "Why is Eric on this day's list, I thought he was the co-owner of this place?"
Harry shrugged. "Don't know why."
Brad shrugged and looked out the big windows watching the people go by as they did their routine of checking those who were coming in to see Jerrica or Eric with the day permission sheet and booted those who were not on the list.
Eric didn't even look at Jerrica when she sat in on his meetings with the bands. Jerrica started to do more of the talking then Eric was and Eric just fumed at her. But when she told him that she had invited another band to be in the Battle of The Bands, he was furious. "This is my Battle of The Bands, Jerrica! My band is to win not some other band!"
"I am co-owner of this company, Mr. Raymond or would you like to quit and leave the company?" Jerrica glared at him.
Eric knew if he quit, he would lose what shares of Starlight Music that he owned. He leaned in his chair. "No, I am not quitting or leaving. Your band may play. What is their name?"
"Jem and The Holograms," Jerrica replied.
"Do you have their demo tape, Jerrica?" asked Eric, holding his hand out. "They must have a demo to be permitted to be in the Battle of The Bands."
"They didn't have one. I was invited to listen to them in the garage that they played in. I will get their demo to you by tomorrow morning. Be early here, Eric." Jerrica stated, as she got out of the chair and walked out of his office.
"Oh one more thing Jerrica, they must sing the same song that they did on the demo tape or they'll be disqualified understand?" Eric smirked.
Jerrica looked at him. "What are the rules?"
"Basic rules are that they are unsigned and have no record company backing them." Eric said, with a smirk.
Jerrica raised an eyebrow at the comment about unsigned bands and yet, The Misfits were a signed band, she tucked that information away as she nodded before she walked out of his office for her own. She closed the door as soon as she crossed the threshold. She hurried to the phone and dialed a number. "Kimber, get Aja and Shana here at Starlight Music now. We have to get a demo tape before we're even allowed to compete." She quickly dialed another number and spoke, "Harry, my sister, along with Aja and Shana are going to be coming here shortly. Please permit them to come up. Thank you."
It was about twenty minutes later, when her sister and the three ladies appeared; Jerrica stepped outside of her office to meet them as she had to make sure that Jem appeared as she came out of the elevator with them. Gloria looked at the ladies as they passed her and smiled as she looked at Jerrica. "I like how they look. Not like those singing prostitutes that Eric brought in."
