The Legacies and The Clowns

Chapter 14

   After getting all of the band equipment ready and on stage, Iris asks, what song will we sing?" "We're gonna sing Autobiography," Logan says. "I thought we were singing Crazy Am I," Iris says. "We need something we're more familiar with," Alias says. "Makes sense," Sierra says. After this conversation, they start warming up a little.   

   Kate's jaw drops when Markus approaches her and asks, "If The Clowns are such great singers, then why don't you let them sing on stage?" She looks around to her other band members, and they remain hushed. "That's a pretty good question," Kate answers. "That's what Alias said!" Markus says, giggling.

   "You talked to Alias? What did you say?" Kate asks. "I asked him the same thing I just asked you just now. Oh, I also told them about how I got Uncle Fred to let them sing. They start in a few minutes, so we gotta go. I told Uncle Fred we'd watch them and cheer them on," Markus explains. Upon hearing these words, The Legacies stare at Micah.

   In response to all of this, Micah mutters, "Come on guys. Let's go."

   Alias and his band begin singing the song that Logan wrote; Autobiography.

   Even though at the end of their performance no one really payed attention, it was worth it. Seeing The Legacies' mouths all drop made it all worth it.

   Markus jumps up and down with joy. "That was awesome! Whoo! You're my favorite band!" At this, Micah grabs Markus and whispers, "No they aren't. We are your favorite band." Markus replies, "No you aren't. I don't even like your music."

   Being manipulative, Sierra says, "Hey, it's okay to like other bands. It's just important that you support ours the most. Okay?" "Yeah, no. I'm not sure about that," Markus says.

   Another band member, Landon, says, "Do you even know what an autobiography is? How can you like a song if you don't even know what it means?" "I do know what an autobiography is. My mom is an author, dummy. Y'all are mean! I'm gonna go say hi to Alias," Markus says, running off onto the stage.

   "That was so awesome!" Markus congratulates. "Aw~ thank you. Without you it never would've happened," Sierra says.

   Markus hugs Sierra and asks, "What is an autobi'graphaphy?" Alias chuckles. "An autobiography is when you write a book about yourself," Logan explains. "That makes a lot of sense," Markus says.

   "Do you wanna go to the festival for little ones like you and ride some rides?" Sierra asks. "Yessss!" Markus shouts. "Me and Sierra will take you. Let's go," Alias says. "If you want, Alias will give you a piggyback ride there," Sierra giggles. "Yes, pleaseee!" Markus begs.

   The others laugh as Alias carries Markus around like a taxi driver.

   Getting assurance, Iris asks, "Are you sure we can go ahead without you guys?" Alias nods his head.

Alias, Sierra, and Markus run off to the festival for little kids. The little kids have so much more rides and games to play. It may have to do with the fact that they are a lot smaller and less expensive.

   Logan groans carrying the drums into the trunk of Alias' truck. "I wish you would've told them to help out with the musical equipment before you agreed to let them go." "Oh, please. We'll be okay," Iris chuckles.

   They go in the long line for the ticket booth. "First, we need to get you a bracelet," Sierra says. They go through the same process as before. "Come back in about 20 minutes," the lady says.

   "Where do you wanna go first?" Alias asks. "I see a booth selling stuffed animals. Could we go there?" Markus asks.

   Alias' face goes from happy to meh in just one single moment. At this, Sierra and Markus both give Alias their innocent looks.
