The three of them walk backed to Ruby's huge Victorian mansion because Frank and Len enjoy spending time with Ruby, Iris, Poe, Skull boy and Misery despite the bad luck she has.
"Wow who lives here?" asked Kurt
"Our friend Ruby you'll love her." Answered Len
"So what can you tell me about your friends?"
"Well Ruby is the happiest girl you will ever met, Skull Boy: despite being a creative inventor, he can't seem to make up his mind about who he is and who he's family background is about."
"Lucky."
"You say something?" asked Frank
"Uhhhhh…so what the others?"
"Uh right, anyway, Poe is a fat crow he usually knows what to do at times and at other times well yeah you get the idea, Iris has one eye, very energetic and always get herself in trouble."
"Wow she must be a lot of trouble."
"Not as much as Misery" said Len
"How could someone be worse the a girl that gets herself into trouble?"
"Because danger comes to her and she causes danger even though she doesn't mean to do it." Said Frank
"How?"
"One time she caused an earthquake just by jumping rope." Answered Frank
"And she gets struck by lightning like everyday." Answered Frank
"Wow that sucks."
"Yeah that's Misery for ya"
"Wait you guys are alright with this?"
"Well at first we weren't but you get used to it after a while and plus she's a really good singer." They walked inside the mansion, Kurt sees a red headed girl was sitting a big comfy chair knitting something, a skeleton building something new, and a cute little cat laying next to the red head girl.
"Hey guys," said the red head girl
"Hey Frank, hey Len." Said Ruby, "Whose your new friend? And what's that smell?"
"The names Kurt Burton and well I traveled here for the past three days with nothing but these clothes and this bass guitar."
"Um okay," said Ruby in a little creep out way, "anyways so what brings you to Gloomsville?"
"Loser, no one likes you, u suck at bass, you're ugly, freak, I wish I had that abortion." The voices raced through he's mind as he recalled everything that had occurred to the past month, a tear started to trickle down his face.
"Sorry I didn't mean to make you cry is there something?" asked Ruby.
"Oh," said Kurt as he brushed off his tears, "Don't worry about it what's past is past."
"Uh ok so let me give you the tour of the house."
"Uh yeah sure." After two hours of walking around, Kurt just collapses to the floor due to exhaustion.
"Hey Kurt buddy you alright?" asked Frank
"Uh Frank you don't think he's dead?" asked Len
"No he's not." Frank glances over at Kurt's motionless body, "We should make a casket just in case."
Two hours later"Uhhh some dream, oh well better start practicing, but first I better see a chiropractor for this sharp pain on my back." Thought Kurt as he woke up. As he opened his eyes he saw a girl with long black hair and tears running through her eyes.
"Are you alright?" asked the girl
"I should be asking you the same question."
"Why is that?
"Well you're crying like a lot so what's wrong?"
"Oh that I'm always crying so it's fine, by the way my name's Misery."
"The name's Kurt." "Misery why does that sound so familiar?" as he was thinking that to himself
"By the way I've never seen anyone that had lasted that long on my bed."
"Huh?" He then looks down and found himself on top a bed of nails and he himself was impressed.
"Oh wow… hmmmm you know this is nothing compared to the pain I felt in the past."
"What really?"
"Oh crap I said too much," thought Kurt, "Just kidding, ow, hehehehe… I'm gotta get going now talk to you later Miser," said Kurt nervously as he bolts out of Misery's room.
"Ok seeya," said Misery, "*sigh* every stranger I meet always runs from me."
Not remembering where's where, Kurt runs all over the place like a chicken without a head until he runs into what seems to be a walking skeleton.
"Hey watch it," said the skeleton.
"Sorry I'm a little lost, can tell me where everyone is ummm… your name?"
"Sorry the name's Skull boy, what's yours?"
"My name's Kurt."
"Oh your Kurt!!!"
"Yeah um what's wrong what did I do?" said Kurt with a confused look on his face.
"Frank and Len have been looking for you, they have ready and they want you to practice with them and Scaredy."
"Ok uh where are they?"
"Just follow me." So he did, they ran down the stairs, out the front door and went to the garage where they saw Frank and Len tuning, Scaredy doing his warm ups, Ruby, Iris, Poe and Misery waiting to hear their latest song.
"Hey Skull boy, hey Kurt."
"Hey."
"Aren't you the boy that was on my bed?"
"Yeah, how's you get down her so fast?"
"I've lived here for a pretty long time, I know my way around."
"Hey Kurt get over here's your bass and here are the lyrics come in whenever you want, and one more thing, try to keep up." Frank and Len open up the song with a clean melodic guitar riff, and then Scaredy comes in beating his drums, Kurt not wanting to feel left out plucks a note letting it ring and after Frank and Len played their melodic tune, they started to play faster, turning a melodic tune into a thrash metal.
Lashing out the action, returning the reaction Smashing through the

Everyone was cheering, clapping and jumping; to Kurt everyone seemed to be not faking his or her excitement.
"Wow Kurt you didn't even know what key it was in and you just went with it." Said Len
"Yes that was most impressive playing I have ever heard indeed." Said Scaredy
"Uh yeah I usually go with the first note I hear and improvise."
"Wow dude you're awesome if you don't wanna join our band RIP?"
"Yeah why not."
"Good for you guys I'm so happy for u guys, I know lets have a party for Kurt's joining with RIP."
"Alright!" said Frank and Len.
"I'll bake the cake," said Ruby. Everyone walks the garage, as Kurt puts down he's bass Misery approaches him.
"You know you were good up there."
"Thanks Misery, I heard you were pretty good singer."
"Blushing* I'm not that great, besides I'm only good when I am asleep."
"I think you'll sound fine when you're awake."
"Really?"
"Yeah, give it a try."
"Ok" Misery starts to scream like a banshee blowing Kurt away literally.
"Wow, I gotta say I've heard worse."
"Thanks for trying to cheer me up."
"No I mean it, I have heard much worse people then you. Crap that came out wrong, so misery we're going to be late for the party lets go."
"Alright, lets go, by the way I wanted to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"Welcome to Gloomsville,."
"Thanks." As he said that Misery walks out the door and gets struck by lightning.
"Ow."
"Are you alright?"
"This happens to me all the time."
"Oh well let's get going."
"Yeah and the way I saw everyone reacting around you, I think everyone's going to like you."
"Really? Wow thanks."
"Don't mention it."
"Wow finally a place where everyone likes me."Thought Kurt.
