Sorry this chapter took so long. My computer recently crashed and it took a little while to get it fixed. And don't worry (if you even read them), I'm still planning on continuing every single one of my stories; I haven't given up on any of them.
"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band?" asked Huey, "How'd you swing that, Jazmine?"
"My daddy defended them a few years ago when they were in Woodcrest" said Jazmine.
"What'd they do?" asked Riley.
"They were accused of illegally sneaking into America, since they are English citizens, because their passports were not registered in the database"
"Why was the trial held in Woodcrest?"
"Because that was where they were performing at the time the government discovered that their info was missing " explained Jazmine, "Anyway, long story short, my daddy proved that it had been a computer glitch and they were cleared of all charges. They came by our house a week ago to catch up with daddy and he told them about our band, so they asked me if we would be interested in opening for them and I said 'of course!'"
"Whoa, you rock Jazmine!" exclaimed Riley.
"This could be a pivotal step in our band's musical career" admitted Huey, "I suggest we find out as much about this band as possible"
"What!? Why do we need ta' do dat'?" asked Riley.
"So we're prepared for what their kind of audience would like to listen to, because in case you forgot, we're going on right before them" answered Huey, slightly annoyed.
"Whatever"
"Good idea, Huey!" said Jazmine.
"Kiss up" said Riley under his breath.
"But," continued Jazmine, having clearly heard Riley, "It's late, and for Riley's sake, I think we should get some sleep"
"What's that supposed to mean!?" shouted Riley.
"Riley, shut up, you know exactly what she meant. I'll go get the sleeping bags; we can sleep down here"
Later:
"Good night, Huey!" called Jazmine cheerfully when they had all gotten settled for the night.
"Ay, what about me!?" shouted Riley
"I just thought you weren't into that kind of stuff" explained Jazmine innocently.
"I'm not, but still, a little consideration would be appreciated"
"But when I tell you things like that, you always get mad at me"
"Yeah, but…"
Huey had long since tuned out the incessant ramblings of his two companions; once again he was traveling deep into the confines of his subconscious. Even hours after Riley and Jazmine and finally settled down, Huey just laid there, with his hands behind his head, thinking over matters to complicated to put into proper words. He did this quite a lot, actually, to the point where it has become commonplace for him.
Eventually Huey did succumb to the strains of exhaustion and finally dozed off. What he dreamt of, however, will blow your mind.
Huey's Dream:
"Oy, Huey! Move it along then!"
"Right, captain! Moving it along then, captain!"
"Cheeky!" shouted Jo-Jo in rather playful tone as he began to roughhouse with Huey.
"You two!" called the irrefutable Doctor Robert, "Front and center!"
"Is it okay if we stop using exclamation points, sir?" asked Huey.
"Well given my expert opinion, I'd have to say: Ob-La Di, Ob-La Da! Understood!?"
"Understood, sir!"
"Now," continued the descendant of Robin of Nottingham, "According to this evenly placed map on my left index hamper, we shall be arriving upon the Sea of Nothing in a mere matter of -"
In a mere matter of seconds, their yellow submarine had fallen off the edge of a widely known channel and was descending to depths unknown. Unknown, that is, until they reached the nadir.
Known for his enterprise, Jo-Jo was quick upon climbing out of their now domesticated vessel.
"Where are we?" asked Jo-Jo.
"I don't know" said a now present Huey, "It looks like the foothills"
"The foothills of what" asked a well-placed and intrigued Doctor.
"The Foothills of the Headlands"
They all surveyed the acreage around them, and this is what they beheld:
"Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high
Newspaper taxies appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you're gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plastercine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstyle
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds (fade out)"

"All right lads; carry on, carry on"
"And who might you be?"
"I am Jeremy Hilary Boob PhD"
"Are you now?"
"Quite. Now, allow me to show you the door"
And with that, the crew was thrown out of Jeremy Hilary Boob PhD's hilltop flat.
"We were rolling, just rolling. Then space and time suddenly stopped, I was not moving through either anymore. I was stuck upside down, in midair, staring straight at a mirror. My reflection had his arms crossed over his chest and was holding a gun in one hand and a white rose in the other. I caught the rose as he threw it to me, only to discover, at closer examination, that it was actually a Jasmine flower. I looked up, and the reflection had his gun locked on to my forehead. Glass shattered, and everything went white"
"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while, they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai Guru Deva Om,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
That call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box,
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe
Jai Guru Deva Om,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world
Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing through my open views
Inciting and inviting me.
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe.
Jai Guru Deva Om,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world"

Freeman Residence- Basement- 3:28 A.M:
The teens slumbered silently in their aphotic bandroom. Huey stirred for a moment.
London, England- Heathrow International Airport- 9:28 A.M:
"Flight 809 to Chicago OHare International Airport, now boarding!"
"Oy, lads! Let's move it along then!"
Believe it or not, that dream does have a deeper meaning. See if you can find it.
Author's Note- You can't fly to Woodcrest from London. Also, it hasn't been clearly defined what state Woodcrest is actually in; I'm just assuming it's a suburb of Chicago, Illinois.
