Jem and the Holograms: a study in Ingrid Minx Kruger

Chapter 14: the journey begins

Authors note: Jem and the Holograms belongs to Christy Marx and Hasbro.

As Minx and Rapture left on their own to start their own band, they were suddenly joined by a third woman who wore her hair in a high Ponytail. Her name was Phoebe Ashe, but she insisted to only be called Rapture. As Minx, Rapture, and Riot were rejected by a club owner as they tried to find their first gig, they had no choice but to perform on the cold streets of Germany.

As they were performing on the cold streets of Germany, the amount of cash that they got thrown into Riot's guitar case were two pairs of $1 bills, two dimes that were 10 cents, 3 Pennies that were one cents, and one $50 bill.

"Okay, even though we will have to sleep on a mattress later and eat bread crusts, I promise you guys that we will get out of here." Riot reassured Minx and Rapture who were shivering and huddling together for warmth. As Riot was about to pull out an old abandoned mattress, they suddenly saw a giant pit-bull bark at them which caused the trio to run in terror and find another place to eat.

As Rapture scammed a woman out of her loaf of bread and made up a story saying that her, Minx, and Riot are struggling college students wanting to pay for their college funds and they have no food or money, the lady fell for her scheme and gave the three of them some money and her bread so all of them don't have to starve.

"Rapture you're a genius!" Minx grinned as her and Riots mouths were stuffed with bread.

"I have my ways, all of them lead to mother Gaia." Rapture grinned coyly as she was stuffing her face in return. After Minx, Riot, and Rapture moved to another alley to perform, the crowd suddenly moved from two people to three people, to four, five, and eventually 6 crowds. As a matter of fact, they decided to move their set all the way to the stage outside.

*time skip*
"What's the name of your band!?" A man from the crowd asked.

"Call us the stingers!" Riot shouted from the microphone.

"I'm riot, the lady with the hat is Minx on the keyboard, and the very tall lady with the high ponytail and electric guitar is Rapture!" Riot shouted very loudly as the entire crowd was hooting and hollering. As The Stingers performed for their large crowd, they got a standing ovation at the end as they all took their bows on stage.

As Riot, Minx, and Rapture were packing up all their stuff, they saw the same man pull out a pen and a piece of paper.

"If you don't mind me asking, how do you feel about doing a 3-4 year tour across Europe? I'm talking about touring Italy, France, Sweden, London, Ireland, you name it!" The same man grinned as he was waiting for their response.

"Yes, we'll take it!" Riot grinned as he, Minx, and Rapture took turns signing the paper. As the three of them got their stuff, they knew that this is just the beginning for them and their lives will change for good.
