Grojband: The Prequel

Chapter Eleven

"It's just like The Newmans to be late," says Corey.
"How do you even know that? We only just met them," I ask. Corey puts his finger on my lips.
"Shh. Laney, this isn't the time for very good questions." I roll my eyes.
"We're all set, Core," says Kin.
"Great. Now all we have to do is wait for The Cruelmans to show up."
    ~WICKED COOL TRANSITION~
"Took your time, Beff," sneers Corey.
"We had some problems. But it doesn't matter if we were 10 hours late. We're still going to destroy you!" says Carrie.
"As if! We're going to be so much better, that your songs will like like ants next to ours!" scoffs Corey. Remind me to help Corey with his trash talk.
"You can go first Riffin. Then we can see how much we have to smash you!" laughs Carrie.
"Yes! Like, go Mina's sister's band!" cheers Trina. I almost forgot she came to watch.
"Go Grojband!" squeal two voices. It's Kate and Allie.
"How did you know we were gonna be here?" I ask them.
"Um, duh! We're your number one fans!" they squeal.
"Let's go Grojband! Count us in Kon!"
"1 2 3 4!"
*They play a rock tune*
The Newmans actually look shocked. I have to admit, our song was pretty wicked. Then Carrie scoffs.
"Whatever. Our song is much better. Lets go, Newmans! Count US in Konnie!"
"1 2 3!"
*They play a rock tune. Yep I'm lazy*
I hate to admit it but their song was really cool.
*They play songs until they both only have one song left*
"Last song Riffin. And this last one has to have lyrics," says Carrie.
"Fine," says Corey. He looks over at Trina. Then his expression changes and he looks like he has an idea.
"Band meeting!" Our band gets into a huddle and Corey starts talking.
"Guys! I know what will make Trina go diary. Once The Newmans play their last song, Trina will think that they definitely will win. She'll get so happy that I might lose that she'll go diary. And we'll have lyrics for our final song!"
"I sure hope this works.." I mutter.
We turned back to The Newmans.
"Right. Go for it, Beff."
Carrie raises an eyebrow and then shrugs. Konnie taps her drumsticks 4 times and the band bursts into song
When the moon is high
We see life
It comes out
Out from the dark shadows.
We see the light, the life of the
Unknown
We don't know what to do
When we see the
Unknown
The unknown...
Carrie sings her last note and we look at Trina hopefully. As Corey expected, she's jumping up and down with joy.
"Corey, there's no way you and Fromage-band could beat that! The Newmans totally win and you totally lose!" Trina shoots up into the air and writes in her diary. She floats down with a smile and Corey catches her diary as it falls. He smiles. "Lyrics! We're going to destroy you now Cruelmans!" Kon taps his drumsticks and we start playing.
We started out small
But we got better with time
We will be victorious
There is one of us
In a million
And no one can replace the friendships
That we make
Over time
Time can heal, my friend
And it never goes away.
It's the one thing
That stays
Stay..
As Corey pulls the last note, several people who have come to watch us burst into applause. Carrie looks defeated.
"Fine! You win this time Gross-band but next time we will crush you!" The Newmans walk away and we all cheer.
  ~IN THE GARAGE TRANSITION~
"Gotta say, Core, we really rocked that band battle," I say.
"Did we Lanes? I'm not sure." A random spotlight appears over Corey. "Even though we did totally destroy them, we really shouldn't be battling them. All we need to know is that we are awesome. No matter what anyone else thinks, just know deep in your soul that you rock." The spotlight disappears.
"CORE! Those would've made some killer lyrics! Why didn't you just sing those at the band battle?" I groan.
"Who knows Laney? Who will ever know?" he says, bopping my nose.

"Thanks for coming out everyone!"
