Oops, forgot to add what Dead Last was about for the people that didn't know. Okay, Dead Last is
about this band that has the power to see ghost, because Vaughn read the inscription on the back of
this amulet. So now they have to help the ghosts with their problems until they die and someone else
gets to be the holders of the amulet. It's a pretty interesting show, but WB is canceling it, so I've
heard. It's on tomorrow on the WB, at 9:00. --that's all i added.
The Problem was on their way to their next show in Seattle, Washington. The Problem's last show was
in a small town somewhere in California. Barely anyone had shown up too see them perform because of
the constant date change. "Stupid, pesky ghosts." Vaughn had said looking out over the few empty
tables in the bar room.
Since no on really came to listen to them play, they ended their show early, at eight. It was supposed
to end at ten. Taking this to their advantage they set out for Seattle, with a good three week head
start. It was Vaughn Parrish's turn to drive, even though he hated driving at night. Last time he drove
he missed hitting a ghost cow and lady but managed to hit three or four trash cans. He'd gotten a
ticket for reckless driving and became an undercover FBI agent that got him into a lot of trouble with
the law.
So Vaughn's shift started at four, in the morning. There were no vacent hotels or motels because, as
The Problem laster found out, of a big *NSYNC and Backstreet Boy concert. When they were coming
out of the tenth motel that had no vacancy Vaughn spotted a car with a Maine license plate. "What
girls are willing to do these days." he had said shaking his head in disgrace.
Looking at the digital clock, of their fourth van, Vaughn read the fading green numbers: 6:45. He
groaned and rubbed his eyes trying to stay awake. His coffee had been finished about two hours ago
and his caffine buzz was diminishing, quickly! Rarely paying attention to the road Vaughn accidently
passed the exit for Seattle and turned into the next one leading to the small town of Agnes. There
was a lot of turns and no signs. Finally, a sign appeared! Speeding by he read "Mt. Horizon".
"Must be a motel or something." Vaughn thought as the road curved to the right and Horizon's campus
came into view.
Peter heard the sound of a very loud car coming towards Horizon. Sophie stepped out of the Admin.
building and gave Peter a confused look. "I didn't get a call from any parents saying they were coming."
Peter said wearing the same confused expression as Sophie. "Weird." was all that Sophie could think of
to say. The beat up van rumbled up the road and into the small parking lot of Horizon. The students
that were up and heading to breakfast stopped and stared. "Who would come this early in the morning?"
was the question on all their minds with no answer given.
Vaughn stopped the van and looked around.
"Okay, this isn't a motel." he concluded aloud. Jane and Scotty woke up after Vaughn stopped the van.
The sudden bounce that rocked them to sleep had gone away, and so had sleep. A brown-haired,
well-built man walked up to the van with a blonde-headed, young-looking woman followed at his side.
Vaughn got out of the van.
"Um, what is this place?" Vaughn asked straight off.
"Mount Horizon High School for Troubled Teens." Peter said the memorized name.
Vaughn kicked the van tire and cursed under his breath. Jane groaned.
"Nice Job Vaughny. Next time I'm driving last!" Janed said and looked away.
"Where's Seattle?" Scotty asked Peter and Sophie.
"About an hour or so drive from here. You must of passed the exit." Peter explained. Scotty and
Jane both smacked Vaughn.
"You throw us off man!" Scotty said angry.
"So this is all my fault?" Vaughn protested looking at them.
"Um, duh." Jane said rolling her eyes. Vaughn glared at her. To break the tension Peter cut in.
"You're welcomed to stay here. Why were you going to Seattle though?" Peter asked. He had told
Sophie to go get the cliffhangers up.
"Thanks, and we're a band, The Problem." Vaughn explained not looking Peter in the eyes.
"When's your show?" Peter inquisited.
"In three weeks." Scotty said giving Peter a confused expression.
"Do you think you could play at this mor...prom we're having?" Peter asked, then added,
"I'd pay of course." he said hoping to entice them. "Fine." Vaughn said just wanting to sleep.
"Sophie said you wanted to see me." Scott's voice grumbled from behind Peter.
"Ah, yes." Peter said then turned his back on the band to talk to Scott. Scott nodded then left. He
came back with a blonde-headed girl.
"What're your names?" Peter asked feeling a bit rude for not asking before.
"I'm Vaughn, that's Scotty and Jane." Vaughn introduced them, not seeing Shelby.
"Alright, Scott, you take Scotty and Jane, Shelby, Vaughn." Peter instructed and giving a few more
instructions to Scott and Shelby, walked off.
"So are you newbies?" Shelby asked Vaughn, when they were walking around.
"Um, no. We're a band, The Problem." Vaughn said checking Shelby out.
"Cool." Shelby said then sat down on a picnic table.
"Why is an attractive girl like yourself doing in a place like this?" Vaughn asked throwing her a pick-up
line.
"Wouldn't you like to know." Shelby played along.
Vaughn smirked,"I wouldn't like to know, I'd love to know." he corrected her. Shelby smiled.
"Maybe I'll tell you." Shelby said then looked over at the Cliffhangers emerging from the lodge.
"Shelby, um, I need to tell you something." Scott said not liking her and Vaughn being buddies.
"What?" Shelby asked once her and Scott were out of Vaughn's hearing distance.
"After you're done being Vaughn's buddy, stay clear of him!" Scott said jealously.
Shelby gave him a confused look, "Um, why?" she asked then smirked. "You're jealous, aren't you?"
she said laughing a bit.
"No, I just don't like him. I have this feeling, okay." Scott said then walked off.
Meanwhile ...
"Picking up another girl Vaughn?" Jane asked sitting in front of him.
"Why do you care? Besides, I think she likes me." Vaughn concluded looking at Shelby while she talked
with Scott.
"Vaughn, it's obvious that she and that guy are going together." Jane burst his bubble.
"People break up." Vaughn said and got up as Shelby approached.
"Um, where can I sleep?" he asked and Shelby shrugged.
"Beats me." she replied. Vaughn put on a frown.
"Do you have a pillow I could use?" Vaughn asked getting an idea.
"Yeah, sure." Shelby said then walked off to get her pillow.
"What are you doing man?" Scotty asked confused.
"You two got your sleep, I want mine!" Vaughn said watching Shelby return, pillow in hand.
"Here." Shelby said handing over the pillow.
"Thanks." Vaughn said taking the fluffy pillow and looked around. He spotted the gazebo and smiled.
He walked towards the gazebo, up the steps and laid down on the seats getting ready to sleep.
When it was dinnertime Peter had asked Shelby to go wake Vaughn so he'd get something to eat.
"Um, Vaughn?" Shelby said but Vaughn didn't move or wake. She cleared her throat. "Vaughn." she
said louder. Seeing no respose she shook him, this woke him.
"Whaaat?" Vaughn grumbled mad that someone woke him.
"Dinner." Shelby said, Vaughn rubbed his eyes and looked at Shelby.
"Morning." he joked, "Where's the, um ..." Vaughn said unsure of what to call the mess hall.
"Follow me." Shelby said and stepped off the gazebo, Vaughn in tow.
