This is a remake of the original first chapter.
Grojband was celebrating in their garage with cake one morning. The cause for celebration? A successful concert at City Hall the night before.
"I can't believe we pulled off something as big as that in front of the entire city!" Kon said. He was already stuffing himself with the cake Laney had brought in.
"Well believe it man because Grojband has officially been named awesome!" Corey said. He too, was stuffing his face with cake. Kin and Laney were the only ones who weren't bothering with the cake.
"I bring in a cake and don't even get a thank you?" Laney said with one eye-brow raised.
"Thanks Laney!" both Corey and Kon said, but their words were muffled by the cake.
"GUYS! It seems like I'm the only one worried that some people might not enjoy our success?"Kin said angrily from a corner.
"Chillax man, we'll worry about it later so enjoy the cake!" Corey said.
"Oh how ignorant can you be!" said a female voice. In walked Grojband's rival band, the Newmans. The person who was talking was Carrie, Corey's female mirror image.
"Stuffing your face with cake, that's why I hate boys so much!" Carrie said.
"You have Lenny in your band though Carrie. And what are you doing here?" asked Laney.
"Lenny is a different matter and I'm only here to deliver a message from the mayor."
In a flat tone she repeated the mayor's message. "After you fantastic performance at City Hall last night, I would like you guys to come to Peaceville's new indoor water park. Of course your tickets are paid so just arrive there tomorrow morning at seven a.m."
After finishing her message she walked away with her band trailing behind her.
"Do you think it might be another gig?" Corey said.
"It probably is Core, which means we're going to have to get practicing with a new set list." Laney replied. She was about to go grab her bass when she heard a "psssssssss" coming from right outside the garage. "I'm going to go outside for a little while though. Finish off the cake once I get back." Laney said to her band-mates.
Outside, Lenny was leaning onto the garage door.
"So what so you want?" Laney asked Lenny.
"You guys are going to the indoor water park right? Well I need to tell you that your band might get a little wet there so wear a swimming suit ok? Leave your instruments in the locker room." Lenny said.
"Why are you telling me this?" Laney asked.
"Look you're the only rational one in your band, the rest would probably chase me off. I'm not suppose to be saying the entire plan to you guys so I just planted a few warnings. You also might want to consider buying a new swimsuit to impress your lead singer there. You have a crush on him don't you?" Lenny replied.
At Lenny's question she blushed and stammered, " I-I-I d-don't have a c-crush on C-Corey!"
Lenny sighed and said, "It's written all over your face you know." Without another word he turned around and tried to catch up with Carrie.
With her face still red Laney walked back into the garage. The guys had pretty much finished off the cake was deciding on a set list. Core was the first to notice her.
"Lanes, your face is really red! Are you sick or something?" Core asked.
"Nah, I'm fine. Uh, guys since we're going to a water park shouldn't we wear swimming suits?" Laney suggested.
"That's a great idea! After we play we can go around enjoying the water park!" Kin said, "Laney, we're going with set list B so get you're bass out. We're gonna rock that water park!"
After a successful practice Kin and Kon left for dinner.
"Hey Lanes, you're going to wear a swimsuit too right?" Corey asked her.
"I probably will." Laney answered. Without another word she ran out the garage.
"Huh, that's strange her house is the other way, that way leads to the shopping district." Corey thought. He didn't pay anymore attention to it though. Songs from the set list filled his mind and replaced his urge to run after Laney.
I am SO much happier with this instead of the original one. The original one didn't make any sense to me after I read it. Hopefully you guys will enjoy this one more.
