PUPS MAKE A MOVIE

I DON'T OWN PAW PATROL ONLY MY OC'S

It was a beautiful & warm Monday morning. Everyone in Adventure Bay had woken up & were getting ready to start their day. Elias was feeling excited. Over the entire school week, he would be filming another blockbuster movie. It was called "Change Of Heart" & it was about a boy who does his best to convince a trio of bullies to try & be nicer to other people. What made it even more exciting was that Elias' family & friends were also going to be part of the movie. Everyone was excited to be able to spend the whole week shooting a movie. After everyone had woken up they headed to the film studio where the director Corey Serpentine handed everyone their scripts & briefed them on the scenes being filmed that day.

"OK everyone today we'll be filming the 1ST few scenes that set up the story & introduce most of the main characters. We have Elias playing the male lead Cody Dixon, Kelly playing the female lead Tennille Watson, Carlos, Danny & Ryder playing the bullies Pedro Alvarez, DJ Wildman & Brent Parker, Miss Spearwood playing the kids' teacher Miss Trinity, Ella & Ethan playing Cody's parents Mr & Mrs Dixon, Judith & Timothy playing Cody's brother Donovan & grandmother Louise, Harry & Susie playing Tennille's parents Mr & Mrs Watson, Angel & Terry playing Cody & Tennille's pet pups & everyone else plays background characters. Filming begins at Adventure Bay Elementary. Let's get filming underway" said Corey.

After everyone received their copies of the script they headed towards Adventure Bay Elementary to begin filming. Elias was excited to get going.

"This is awesome. I'm glad you're all going to be part of this movie. I couldn't be happier about it" said Elias as he smiled excitedly.

"It's not often we get to help out with your movies, music & TV shows. When we do it makes me feel special. Nothing feels better than getting to spend time with you & helping with your endeavours. This movie will be fantastic" said Kelly as Elias & her smiled warmly at each other while staring deeply into each other's eyes. They then pressed their lips against each other & passionately kissed as they held each other close. They got a tingling sensation like ASMR as usual. After breaking apart they continued smiling at each other. Soon everyone arrived at Adventure Bay Elementary. The kids were all positioned out the front of the building for the opening scene. Everything was set up before filming commenced. Once everything was in place Corey grabbed a clapper board & held it in front of the camera.

"OK scene 1 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. All the kids were shown hanging out in small groups talking to each other in idle conversation. The camera focused on Elias as he walked towards the front doors of the school building. He had a curious expression on his face as he opened the doors & looked around the main hall. He quickly took note of all the lockers that lined the halls & the doors to each classroom.

"So, this is my new school is it? I must say it looks fantastic. I have a feeling I'm going to love it here" said Elias as he walked through the halls taking mental notes of where everything was. Soon he came across the administration office & went inside. He walked over to the front desk where the receptionist was sitting. When the receptionist noticed Elias, she smiled politely as she addressed him.

"Hello. How can I help you?" asked the receptionist.

"Today's my 1ST day here. My name is Cody Dixon. I'm 10 years old & I'm in 5TH grade" said Elias as he smiled politely.

"Let me check to see which class you have" said the receptionist as she checked her computer to see who Elias' teacher was. She found his name listed under Miss Spearwood's class.

"Your teacher's name is Miss Trinity. Here's a map of the school to help you find your way around. The red circle shows where your locker is. Welcome to Ocean Bay Cody" said the receptionist as she handed Elias his school map.

"Thanks. See you later" said Elias as he exited the administration office. He began studying the school map to pinpoint where everything was before going to find his locker. Once he found it he noticed a 4-digit number on the back of his map. This number was his locker code which he needed to use to lock & unlock his locker. The number was 6927. After Elias opened his locker he began placing his school supplies in his locker. He placed some books, stationery, gym clothes & other supplies neatly in his locker. Once everything was sorted Elias grabbed the stuff he'd need for his 1ST lesson. As soon as he shut his locker the bell rang. All the kids began heading to class with their stuff. Elias walked to class curiously wondering what it'd be like.

"I can't wait to see what my class looks like. I hope Miss Trinity is a good teacher. If all goes well, I'll more than likely make some new friends by the end of the day" said Elias as he walked to class. Once he arrived he & the other kids were let inside by Miss Spearwood. Elias waited until he saw an unoccupied desk before taking his seat & placing his stuff neatly on his desk. Once everyone was seated Miss Spearwood addressed the class.

"Good morning everyone. Before we begin the lesson, we have a new student in our class & I'm sure he'd be happy to tell you about himself" said Miss Spearwood.

Elias smiled as he stood up & walked to the front of the class as everyone fixated their eyes on him. Elias smiled excitedly as he began addressing everyone.

"Hello. I'm Cody Dixon. I'm 10 years old & I moved here from Lincoln in Nebraska" said Elias.

"What's it like over there?" asked Miss Spearwood.

"It's quite warm a lot of the time. There are lots of cornfields & farmland there. It's a lot different there than it is here. The nearest beach to Nebraska would be on the California coastline" said Elias.

"That's fascinating. Thanks for sharing that with us Cody. You may take your seat" said Miss Spearwood.

Elias smiled as he returned to his seat. Ryder sat on his left & Katie sat on his right. Miss Spearwood then walked over to the blackboard.

"OK to begin today's lesson I'll write some sentences on the board without the correct grammar. You all need to write down the sentences in your notebooks with the correct grammar in place. You may begin once I finish writing the 1ST sentence" said Miss Spearwood as she began writing on the blackboard. As everyone began writing the sentences with the correct grammar in their notebooks Ryder flicked Elias in the ear. Elias turned to look at Ryder wondering what he wanted.

"Can I help you?" asked Elias.

"I'd never ask for help from a loser like you" said Ryder.

Elias rolled his eyes as he continued writing down the sentences on the blackboard. At 1 point his pencil became blunt & needed sharpening. As Elias stood up & began walking over to the dustbin to sharpen his pencil Ryder stuck his foot out causing Elias to trip & fall.

"WOAH" cried Elias as he fell to the floor. Everyone turned to see him on his knees.

"Are you OK Cody?" asked Miss Spearwood.

"Yes. I just slipped & fell" said Elias as he got to his feet & walked over to the dustbin to sharpen his pencil. After he finished he walked back to his seat while glaring at Ryder. Ryder simply glared back at Elias. After Elias took his seat he continued writing down the sentences.

"Cut. Great job everyone. Let's get set up for the next scene" said Corey.

"You all did well. Keep up the good work" said Elias.

"You're not bothered about the things I'll end up doing or saying while in character, are you?" asked Ryder.

"No. It's just a movie. I know you don't mean to be hurtful. You're my best friend Ryder. Don't worry about it. Everything will be fine" said Elias as he smiled reassuringly at Ryder.

"That's a relief. I'm glad you're not upset over the way my character acted" said Ryder as he smiled at Elias.

"Bro hug time" said Elias as he & Ryder shared a bro hug. Nothing felt better to Elias than being able to show how much love he had for his family & friends. Soon the next scene was set up.

"Places everyone" said Corey.

All the kids went into the hall to begin the next scene. Corey held the clapper board in front of the camera.

"Scene 2 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. The kids were all shown walking through the halls heading to their lockers to get their things for the next lesson. Elias grabbed his stuff from his locker & had just closed it when Carlos, Danny & Ryder approached. Ryder knocked Elias' stuff out of his hands causing it to fall to the floor. Elias became annoyed & glared at Carlos, Danny & Ryder.

"What's your problem? Why are you acting like a jerk?" asked Elias.

"You're the 1 with a problem" said Ryder.

"If you think you're being cool or funny you're not. You're acting like a moron" said Elias.

"Watch your mouth Goldilocks. You don't want to mess with us" said Danny.

"I'm not scared of you. Also, my name is Cody" said Elias.

"We don't care. If you get in our way, you'll be sorry" said Carlos.

"Right back at you" said Elias as he went to pick up his stuff. Ryder grabbed him by the collar & held him against the lockers.

"LET ME GO" yelled Elias as he tried to break free from Ryder's grip.

"Listen carefully you little punk. We're the guys that run things around here. You better learn your place. We won't have any problems setting you straight if you dare to step out of line. Let this be a lesson to you. We're watching you Goldilocks. Be a good boy & don't challenge our authority" said Ryder as he glared harshly at Elias before throwing him to the floor. Carlos, Danny & Ryder then walked off while laughing. The other kids had seen everything that had happened but none of them did or said anything out of fear they'd be targeted. As Elias dusted himself off & began picking up his stuff Kelly walked over to him.

"Are you OK?" asked Kelly.

"Yes. Those 3 aren't a major concern for me" said Elias as he grabbed his stuff. Kelly helped him gather everything.

"Don't worry about them. They think they're better than everyone else but they're not. Nobody really likes them because of how they act" said Kelly.

"What are their names?" asked Elias.

"The Spanish boy is Pedro Alvarez; The redhead is DJ Wildman & the spiky haired boy is Brent Parker. They call themselves the 3 Big Bosses because they think they're so tough" said Kelly.

"More like the 3 Big Jerks" said Elias as he & Kelly laughed.

"You're funny" said Kelly as she smiled warmly at Elias.

"Thanks. I'm Cody Dixon. What's your name?" asked Elias.

"I'm Tennille Watson. Nice to meet you" said Kelly as Elias & her shook hands.

"I think it's safe to say you're the 1ST friend I've made here" said Elias as he smiled warmly at Kelly.

"You seem like a really sweet boy. I can't wait to hang out with you later" said Kelly.

"Me either. Let's get to class" said Elias as he & Kelly walked side by side to class smiling at each other & making small talk.

"Cut. Well done everyone. We'll take a break while we get the next scene set up" said Corey.

Miss Spearwood handed out the schoolwork that the kids needed to complete for the day. It was a work package filled with various activities that focused on grammar, handwriting, spelling, maths & so on. All the kids sat together as they tried to fill in as much as they could before they began filming the next scene.

"I'm having a great time filming this movie with you all. I hope you're all enjoying yourselves as well" said Elias.

"I'd say we all are. This movie is going to be fantastic to make" said Kelly.

"It feels kind of weird portraying characters that differ from our real personalities" said Carlos.

"It's not so bad. It gives us a chance to show off our acting skills" said Danny.

"As long as we all stay focused we'll all do a fantastic job portraying our respective characters" said Ryder.

Everyone continued working through their work packages trying to get as much done as they could. Soon it was time for the next scene to be filmed. Everyone headed to the playground & got in place.

"Scene 3 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. All the kids were shown in the playground playing on the equipment & doing their own thing. Elias & Kelly sat on the seesaw playing together.

"Hey Cody, how long did you live in Lincoln for?" asked Kelly as she pushed herself upwards on the seesaw.

"I lived there my whole life. It was just me, my parents, my older brother, my grandmother & my Pit Bull pup. It's a complete change of scenery moving from an inland farming city to a coastal beach town" said Elias as he pushed himself upward on the seesaw.

"I've lived here my whole life. It's nice here. The weather is always beautiful & every time I go down to the beach I love to feel the sand under my feet & between my toes. The warm feeling of it relaxes me. I also really enjoy going for a swim. The water always feels nice & cool. You're going to love living here" said Kelly as she smiled warmly at Elias.

"I bet I will. Other than dealing with Brent, DJ & Pedro's antics I've enjoyed my time here. The more I can spend time with you the better" said Elias as he smiled warmly at Kelly. Carlos, Danny & Ryder soon walked over smirking at Elias & Kelly.

"That's so cute. Goldilocks has a girlfriend" said Carlos as he smirked at Elias.

"We're just friends. Don't you have anything better to do than make other people feel miserable?" asked Elias.

"Not really. It feels great to know that we're doing our job making sure everyone knows their place in this school" said Danny as he smirked at Elias.

"You 3 think you're so much better than everyone else but in truth you 3 are despised by the entire student body. You all need to grow up & stop acting like power hungry tyrants" said Kelly as she scowled at Carlos, Danny & Ryder.

"Don't get mouthy with us Tennille. You don't want to pay the price for challenging our authority" said Ryder as he glared at Kelly.

"Shut up. You're all acting like complete jerks. Sooner or later you'll all get the swiftest dose of karma for your horrid behaviour" said Elias as he scowled at Carlos, Danny & Ryder. Carlos proceeded to throw Elias off the seesaw before Danny punched him in the face. Ryder then grabbed Elias' underwear & tugged it upwards giving Elias a wedgie.

"LEAVE HIM ALONE" yelled Kelly as she got off the seesaw & ran over to Carlos, Danny & Ryder. They grabbed her & threw her down next to Elias.

"Foolish girl. You never learn" said Carlos as he scowled at Kelly.

"Look what happened. You brought this entirely on yourselves" said Danny as he scowled at Elias & Kelly.

"Hopefully by now you've gotten the message. We shouldn't have to tell you again" said Ryder as he scowled at Elias. Carlos, Danny & Ryder then walked off. Elias stood up & readjusted his underwear before helping Kelly up.

"Are you OK Tennille?" asked Elias.

"Yes. What about you?" asked Kelly.

"I'm OK. I'm not going to let what those 3 do or say bother me. They're acting like a bunch of fools" said Elias.

"1 day they're all going to get exactly what they deserve. I hope I'm there to see it" said Kelly.

Suddenly the school bell rang. All the kids began heading back inside to continue with their next lesson.

"Cut. Excellent job everyone. We're going to take another break before we begin the next scene" said Corey.

All the kids retrieved their work packages & continued trying to get them done. As they worked on them they talked about how much fun they were all having.

"This is a really exciting experience. I'm having a great time filming this movie with you all" said Elias.

"Me too. I think it's awesome that we get to help you make this movie" said Kelly.

"I can't wait to see how it all turns out. I bet we'll all look fantastic in our portrayals of each character" said Carlos.

"Indeed. Let's keep up the good work. We're all making excellent progress so far" said Danny.

"The thing that impresses me the most is how we're able to get through every scene in just 1 take. We'll be finished with filming in record time if we keep working hard & committing to our characters" said Ryder.

All the kids continued working through their work packages. Unlike the 1ST break they had much more time to get their work done. Soon quite a few kids had finished the entire package. Anyone who finished could go to the playground until the next scene was ready to be filmed. Carlos, Danny, Elias, Kelly & Ryder all finished relatively early & went to the playground to pass time before filming continued. They all played together happily as other kids began heading to the playground having finished their work packages.

"I'm amazed at how quick everyone is finishing their work. Before you know it, everyone will be finished" said Elias as he swung back & forth on the swingset.

"There's a chance they'll all be finished before the next scene gets filmed" said Kelly as she played on the swing next to Elias.

"How long do you think it'll be before filming continues?" asked Carlos as he slid down the slide.

"I don't know. We'll have to wait & see" said Danny as he hung upside down on the climbing frame.

"Hopefully it won't be too long. I'd say it'll be no longer than an hour before filming continues" said Ryder as he spun on the merry go round. As time went by more kids finished their work packages & went out to the playground. Eventually after 1-2 hours had passed everyone was called to the cafeteria so that the next scene could be filmed.

"Scene 4 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. Elias & Kelly walked side by side with trays of food before sitting down at a table. As they sat & eat they had idle conversation with each other.

"What's your family like Tennille?" asked Elias.

"It's average. Other than myself there's only my parents & my pet Staffordshire Terrier pup. That's how it's been for a long time" said Tennille.

"Is it OK if I come over after school & meet them?" asked Elias.

"Sure. I bet they'd love you" said Kelly.

"Maybe tomorrow I can introduce you to my family" said Elias.

"That'll be exciting. I can't wait to meet them" said Kelly.

As Elias & Kelly continued their conversation they ate their lunch & smiled warmly at each other. Carlos, Danny & Ryder then approached. Ryder dumped a carton of milk all over Elias causing Carlos, Danny & himself to laugh.

"Very funny. You 3 are so juvenile" said Elias as he glared at Ryder.

"There's no use crying over spilled milk" said Carlos as he smirked at Elias.

"That's so funny that I forgot to laugh. Grow up & act your age" said Elias as he glared at Carlos.

"Looks like you're still being defiant. We warned you about what would happen if you stepped out of line" said Danny as he glared at Elias.

"I'm getting really sick of you 3 acting like jerks. Stop being mean to everyone" said Kelly as she glared at Carlos, Danny & Ryder.

"We don't have to listen to you. Be a good girl & eat your lunch" said Ryder as he glared at Kelly.

"How dare you talk to her like that. You have no respect for women" said Elias as he glared at Ryder.

"You want respect? Here it is" said Ryder as he dumped his food tray on Elias. Carlos & Danny did the same before they & Ryder walked off laughing. Elias growled as he left the cafeteria & headed to the restrooms to clean himself up. He used toilet paper to wipe off as much food as he could while rinsing himself with water to get rid of the stains left. He was understandably annoyed with Carlos, Danny & Ryder's behaviour.

"I really don't get it. Why are they acting like this? I haven't done or said anything to upset them. There's no reason for them to treat me this way. Sooner or later I'll get to the bottom of this" said Elias as he cleaned himself up & looked in the mirror to make sure he had cleaned up as much as possible. Soon the bell rang indicating the beginning of last period.

"Only 1 more hour of the school day left. Hopefully it'll go well" said Elias as he left the bathroom & headed to his locker to get his stuff for last class.

"Cut. Well done guys. We'll have another break before we begin the next scene" said Corey.

All the kids who hadn't finished their work packages continued working on them while everyone else went to the playground. 1 by 1 the remaining kids finished their work packages & soon enough they all went to the playground to hang out while waiting for the next scene. After running, jumping, swinging, sliding, climbing, spinning & playing for a while the next scene was set up. Only Elias & Kelly were required to begin the scene. They went to the sidewalk a short distance away to begin the next scene.

"Scene 5 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. Elias & Kelly walked side by side as they headed home.

"What a day it's been. I don't know what it is that motivates Brent, DJ & Pedro to act up but I'll get to the bottom of it 1 way or another" said Elias.

"The way they acted today is normal behaviour for them. Ever since I 1ST met them they've been like that" said Kelly.

"Do they usually single out people the way they did with me today?" asked Elias.

"Usually it's only new kids they do it to. Other times they go after anyone they can find. They don't exactly target a certain group or person. I think they mostly do it because they feel powerful & it makes them feel as if they're in control of others. They're all power-hungry morons" said Kelly.

"Sooner or later something will happen that'll make them see the error of their ways. If they keep acting like this, they won't have a very bright future ahead of them" said Elias.

"I'll say. They'd probably end up in a fast food restaurant with their poor attitude" said Kelly.

Elias & Kelly continued walking while continuing their conversation. Soon they reached their houses.

"That's my house there. Do you live nearby?" asked Elias.

"I live next door. This is perfect. Now we can see each other all the time" said Kelly.

"I can't wait to meet your family. They sound like pretty lovely folk" said Elias as he smiled excitedly.

"Let's not hesitate any longer. Come with me" said Kelly as she smiled & led Elias to her front door. After opening the door Elias & Kelly went inside before shutting the door. Harry, Susie & Terry were in the living room.

"I'm home" said Kelly.

"Hi Kelly. How was your day?" asked Harry.

"It was normal. This is the new kid at school. His name's Cody Dixon" said Kelly.

"Nice to meet you guys. I live next door to you" said Elias as he shook Harry & Susie's hands while smiling warmly at them.

"Where are you from?" asked Susie.

"I'm from Lincoln, Nebraska. I moved here with my parents, older brother, grandmother & Pit Bull pup" said Elias.

"Yay there's another pup in the neighbourhood. Is it a boy or a girl?" asked Terry as he smiled excitedly while wagging his tail.

"She's a girl. Her name's Cora. What's your name?" asked Elias.

"I'm Oscar. Nice to meet you" said Terry as he extended his paw.

"Nice to meet you too Oscar" said Elias as he smiled & shook Terry's paw.

"So, what do you want to do Cody?" asked Kelly.

"Do you have any board games we can play?" asked Elias.

"I sure do. I'll be right back" said Kelly as she went to her room. She returned with a box that read "4 CORNERS" on it.

"Have you heard of this game before?" asked Kelly.

"I don't think so. How do you play?" asked Elias.

"Each of us has 2 pieces which start in the corners of the board. The aim of the game is to try & get those pieces to the corners where the other player's pieces started. You can move forward, backward, left & right but not diagonally. If you land on a square occupied by the other player, they must go back to the corner they started in. The 1ST player to get their pieces to the other player's corners wins" said Kelly.

"Sounds fun. Let's play" said Elias.

Elias & Kelly set the game on the kitchen table & sorted out which pieces were theirs & which corners they'd start in. Once they did so they began to play. Elias & Kelly laughed & smiled as they played together. Harry, Susie & Terry watched in delight as Elias & Kelly attempted to win the game.

"Those 2 are like peas in a pod. Looks like they've become fast friends" said Harry as he smiled warmly at Elias & Kelly.

"Indeed. It's nice to see Tennille with other kids. There aren't many boys her age who hang around with her. I'm glad Cody & her are having fun together" said Susie as she smiled warmly.

"Me too. Cody seems like a sweet boy. I bet his family is just as fantastic" said Terry as he smiled & wagged his tail. Elias & Kelly played together for a little while longer before packing up the game.

"That was fun. We have to play that again sometime" said Elias as he smiled.

"We will. Let's have something to eat" said Kelly as she went over to the refrigerator & retrieved 2 slices of chocolate cake & 2 glasses of orange juice. She gave 1 slice & 1 glass to Elias keeping the other slice & glass for herself. Elias & Kelly tucked in while having idle conversation. The cake had a nice soft texture & tasted chocolatey & sweet. The orange juice was cool & refreshing with an orangey sweet taste.

"This cake is divine. I've never had any cake that's tasted as beautiful as this before" said Elias as he smiled at Kelly.

"I'm glad you like it. I made it myself" said Kelly as she smiled.

"That's amazing. You have excellent culinary talent" said Elias.

"I sure do" said Kelly.

After Elias & Kelly finished eating they put their dirty dishes in the dishwasher & joined Harry, Susie & Terry in the lounge to watch some TV. Sometime later Elias' phone rang. He grabbed it out of his pocket & answered the call. It was his parents.

"Hi guys. What's up?" asked Elias.

"It's time for you to come home Cody" said Ella.

"Dinner will be ready soon" said Ethan.

"OK. See you soon" said Elias as he hung up.

"See you tomorrow Cody" said Kelly as she gave Elias a hug.

"Bye Tennille. Have a good evening" said Elias as he grabbed his schoolbag & left the house. He walked next door & entered the house through the front door. Angel ran up to him smiling & wagging her tail.

"Hi Cody. How was school?" asked Angel.

"It was OK. There were 3 boys who caused nothing but trouble, but I didn't let it get to me. The girl who lives next door is the 1ST new friend I made. Her name's Tennille. She's sweet. I can't wait for you to meet her" said Elias as he smiled while hugging & petting Angel.

"I'm glad to hear that. I bet she's really cute" said Angel.

"Kind of. She also has a Staffordshire Terrier pup named Oscar. I bet you'd be great friends with him" said Elias.

"We sure would. I can't wait to meet them" said Angel.

"Anyways I better put my stuff away so that I can get ready for dinner" said Elias.

"Good idea. It's almost ready" said Angel as Elias headed upstairs to pack his stuff away.

"Cut. Good job guys. We're going to take another break before the next scene" said Corey.

By this point almost everyone had gone home since they had completed all the scenes they needed to film. Only Angel, Elias, Ella, Ethan, Judith & Timothy remained on set for the last 2 scenes of the day.

"I'm having so much fun. We've made a lot of progress today" said Elias.

"We sure have. You're doing a great job with your performance. Keep up the good work" said Ella.

"I will. I can't wait for tomorrow. It'll be lots of fun filming the next set of scenes" said Elias.

"Your ability to act is nothing short of amazing. You're easily 1 of the biggest child stars in recent history" said Ethan.

"Probably. I couldn't have made it this far without you guys. Everyone in town is doing their part to help & support me all the way & I'm extremely grateful for it. This is the best town I've ever had the pleasure of living in" said Elias as he hugged his parents. Soon the next scene was ready to be filmed. Angel, Elias, Ella, Ethan, Judith & Timothy took their places in the kitchen & dining room.

"Scene 6 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. Everyone was shown eating dinner as they had idle conversation.

"I had a very interesting day at school. There were these 3 boys named Brent, DJ & Pedro who did nothing but cause trouble. I did my best not to let them get to me. The girl who lives next door is nice. Her name's Tennille Watson. She's the 1ST friend I've made here" said Elias as he ate his dinner.

"I'm glad to hear that. What did those boys do & say?" asked Ella.

"They flicked me in the ear, knocked books out of my hands, threw me against the lockers & off the seesaw, punched me, dumped food on me, hurled verbal abuse & made threats. I don't know why they did it but I'm going to make sure the situation is dealt with in the right way" said Elias.

"I'll bust their skulls open if I catch them harassing you Cody. Nobody messes with you & gets away with it" said Timothy.

"Jonas, I don't want you picking fights with anyone. You'll be in big trouble if I catch you acting up" said Ethan.

"I'll be fine. I'm not going to let them get the best of me. I'm better than that" said Elias.

"You're a very wise boy Cody. If everything goes well, you'll be able to find the perfect solution to the problems you have with those boys" said Judith.

"Indeed. Perhaps I can make them have a change of heart if I can get through to them" said Elias.

"Good thinking. If they realise the error of their ways, they'll redeem themselves & try to make amends for their wrongdoings" said Angel.

"If that happens everyone will be a lot happier. That's what I like to see" said Elias.

Everyone continued to eat as they talked about their day. After they finished eating they put their dirty dishes in the dishwasher & went off to do their own thing.

"Cut. Good work everyone. We'll take a short break before we film the last scene of the day" said Corey.

"This last scene should be relatively easy to film. All that happens is me going to bed contemplating the day's events" said Elias.

"Once we finish filming we can get some well-deserved rest. I feel tired" said Angel as she yawned.

"Me too. At least we put in a lot of effort & got a lot of work done today" said Elias.

"We sure did. At this rate we'll have the movie finished by the end of the week" said Angel.

Soon everything was set up for the final scene. Elias changed into his pyjamas as Angel & himself got in place.

"Scene 7 take 1. Action" said Corey as he smacked the clapper board shut & moved it away from the camera. Elias was shown walking into his room & making sure everything was packed up for the day. Angel was sitting nearby waiting for Elias to say goodnight. Once Elias had made sure everything was put away he turned to Angel & kissed her on the forehead while hugging & petting her.

"What a day it's been. Hopefully tomorrow will be a lot better" said Elias.

"I'm sure it will. Just remember never to give up even when it seems like the only way out" said Angel.

"I won't. Goodnight Cora" said Elias as he hopped in bed.

"Goodnight Cody" said Angel as she curled up besides Elias' bed. Elias turned his lamp off before settling down for the night.

"Cut. Hat's a wrap for today everyone. We'll continue filming tomorrow" said Corey.

Everyone packed up & headed home to get some rest. Once Angel, Elias, Ella & Ethan returned home they all went straight to bed since they were feeling exhausted from all the work they'd done that day. Harry, Kelly, Susie & Terry were already asleep, so they made sure not to wake them up as they prepared for bed. As Elias lay in bed he thought about how well the movie was going.

"Everyone's doing a fantastic job working on this movie. Their ability to accurately portray each character is fantastic. I'm impressed with everyone's talent. I'm glad they're all able to be a part of this movie. Nothing is better about making movies, music & TV shows than having your family & friends help you out. Tomorrow we'll all do a fantastic job. I can't wait to continue filming" thought Elias as he drifted off to sleep.
