Julie's POV
I'm impatiently waiting for the show to start. I told the guys to dress in the outfits I left out for them but last I saw them they were on the floor playing war with cards. I pace backstage humming melodies to hopefully prevent more jolts. I really hope they can make it.

Caleb's POV
Time to make an appearance!!

Luke's POV
We're in the garage getting ready for our show when we hear a knock on the door.

"Hey Reg can you get that?" I called down from the bunk

"Yeah," he says heading towards the door

Then suddenly the room began to fill in purple smoke. Coughing we all passed out.

Third Person POV
Julie paces backstage wondering where her band mates are. With a worried look on her face she confides in Flynn who stays by her side worried herself. While they think of the worst and best posibilites for their disappearance the three ghosts find themselves in an unfamiliar room feeling weak and numb. They search the room for any sign of life not knowing that even though they're together they're all alone.

Caleb's POV
Perfect they'll stay in the loneliest room together not being able to see each other or hear or feel each other while I get the most important piece of the puzzle. I said marching out to the school but I pause. Or instead they get it for me. I think with a smirk and I walk back inside to the guys.

Carrie's POV
I wondered why the show wasn't starting. I looked backstage to see how Julie was doing and she looked stressed.

"Hey Julie?" I said and she turned around

"Yea?"

"You got this okay you're seriously the most talented girl I know. You got this even if you have to do it alone," I tell her and she pulls me into a hug

"Thanks Care," she whispered

"Anytime,"

Third Person POV
The guys walk out of Caleb's studio with smirks on their faces and head towards the school.

Julie's POV
Flynn walks back saying, "I can't stall any long Jules you have to go on alone,"

I realize that the guys weren't coming and something happened. Sighing I grab a mic and walk on stage alone.

"Um...Hi I'm Julie from Julie and the Phantoms. For technical reasons the band isn't able to be here but you guys were promised a show. So y'all are getting that even if it's a one woman show. I want to dedicate this to a very special electric guitarist who stole my heart, even if he isn't here to hear it." I say sadly then I move to the piano to begin playing a song

Luke's POV
We got to the school and I saw Julie on stage and completely ready to crash and ruin the show with the guys. We stand backstage impatiently when she starts singing.

"Showtime," I say with a smirk

Julie's POV
I began singing a cappella instead of the piano like usual.

(Julie, luke, All Together, Reggie, Alex)

I don't know what you've been told
But time is running out no need to take it slow
I'm stepping to you toe-to-toe
I should be scared, honey, maybe so

As I'm singing I don't notice the guys get in place behind me until they join in.

But we ain't worry bout it right now (Right now)
Keeping dreams alive, 1999 heroes
But we ain't worry bout it right now (Right now)
Swimmin' in the floods, dancing on the clouds below

I ain't worried bout it
I ain't worried bout it
(Hey)

During rehearsal this was the part Luke came to me and we sang together. But Luke had a different Look in his eyes. As if he wasn't quite himself and didn't move from his spot. So I stood at my spot as well.

I don't know what you've been told
But time is running out, so spend it like it's gold
I'm living like I'm nine-zeros
Got no regrets even when I'm broke

I'm at my best when I got something I'm wanting to steal
Way too busy for them problems and problems to feel , yeah-yeah
No stressin' just obsessin' with sealin' the deal
I'll take it in and let it go

But we ain't worry bout it right now (Right now)
Keeping dreams alive, 1999 heroes
But we ain't worry bout it right now (Right now)
Swimmin' in the floods, dancing on the clouds below

I ain't worried bout it
I ain't worried bout it
(Hey)

Throughout the performance the band seemed off they purposely gave their lowest and sometimes stop playing for a second. It was weird to me especially Luke, he gave his all every time but now? Something was wrong, very wrong.

Abruptly the music cut off and we looked around confused so I continued a cappella.

Ooh, I ain't worried
Ooh (ooh), oh, no

I ain't worried 'bout it right now (right now)
Keeping dreams alive, 1999, heroes
I ain't worried 'bout it right now (right now)
Swimmin' in the floods, dancing on the clouds below

I ain't worried 'bout it
(Ooh, hey, yeah)
I ain't worried 'bout it
(Ooh, hey)

I ain't worried 'bout it

I finished the song alone and the crowd erupted in applause. But I knew something was off but smiled and waved anyways.

"There will be two more songs right after the break," I say running backstage to where the guys looked like they were leaving

"Where are y'all going? And what happened," I asked

"Oh so you see we're about to go to Caleb's club, we realized that making music there would be better than this place," Luke said

"What? What happened to no music is worth making Julie if we're not making it with you?" I asked quoting what he told me

"Well you're always welcome to join us," Reggie said

"Are you serious?! He tried to kill you guys and he's hurting me! And you're asking me if I want to come?" I yell completely surprised just as another jolt hits me and I run into the wall

None of them run to my side to check if I was okay so I get up alone and see them looking at me expectantly.

"What? You want me to come?" I ask, "No. My answers no."

They shrug their shoulders and leave but Luke looks back before closing the door and I stop him, "wait,"

"What?"

"Luke I-I I want to give you this," I say taking perfect harmony out of my pocket and handing it to him, "you're clearly not yourself but that's how I really feel about you,"

I say running back out on stage to preform our-my next song this time without the band.

Third Persons POV
Luke stands there with the piece of paper in his hands and opens it up to see a song written. After reading it he remembers. Everything.
