And since that day Carley and Leah met, they became the best of friends. Carley would come over to Leah's house and play a few new chords that Carley made up and Leah would play them on her acustic guitar. And after practice, the two girls would talk for hours about themselves and how they were before they met each other.

They were unseperable.

Sometimes, Carley would talk to Leah's mom, too for a while who didn't mind it at all.

The next day when Leah was walking out of her class, she was writing down lyrics for a song she made up recently. As she was thinking, someone snatched the notebook out of her hands and saw that it was a group of girls that are in her math class.

"Hey, look, girls. Fatty here's got some lyrics for her stupid band with her stupid disabled friend," THe blonde teen named Jenel remarked as her four friends June, Michel, Jess, and Lu laughed.

"Oh, ha ha. Very funny. At least I have a life instead of making childish remarks," Leah said trying to get her notebook back, but Jenel threw it to June, then to Lu.

"Aw, look. Fatty's getting angry," Jess said as Lu was about to throw Leah's book at her until Leah was able to catch it.

"Heh, lucky catch, Fatass," Jenel said as Leah walked up to her.

"I may be fat, but I at least have enough commen sense that people like you make me feel so happy that I'm my own person and not a pawn like your so called friends that follow you around all day," She remarked as Carley from afar, saw that with Jenel slapping Leah across the face.

She was about to walk where Leah was until she saw her punch Jenel in the face knocking her down.

Carley was surprised to see Leah do that as she walked up to her friend.

"Hey, Carley," Leah said.

"Uh, hey, Leah. What's up?" Carley said, "I kinda saw you punch that prep in the face."

"Yeah. But she bitch-slapped me in the face. So, I punched her in the face," Leah replied as they walked to her house.

There, they watched the DVD of Shrek the Third. As that was palying on Leah's PS2, Carley saw that Leah was writing something when she was done with her homework.

"What are you doing?" She wondered.

"Uh, nothing," Leah said, "Just some dumb lyrics I made up in science class."

"Cand I see them?"

"...No. They're kinda stupid." But it was too late as Carley took the lyrics from Leah's hands and began to read them. "Hey! Give it back!" Leah said as Carley still read them while running away from her. She continued to run from her chestnut friend until she tackled her in the front room where her mom was on the computer.

"Gimme my lyrics!" Leah demanded.

"Never! I'm not finish reading them!" Carley said.

"Don't make me bite you!"

"You don't have the guts!"

"I'm not bluffing! So, give me my lyrics!"

"No!"

"Give it!"

"Never!"

"What are you two doing?" Leah's mom asked making them stop fighting.

"Carley took my lyrics. Uh...I mean, nothing," Leah said as Carley hid the paper behind her back.

"Let me see it?" Leah's gave her Leah's lyrics and read them.

One of them read at the top, 'Pain Can Bring More Than That as it read;

-

'Some people say that pain can bring nothing but sorrow.

Some people say that nothing good comes from it.

Of what to do if something happens.

It can make you have a better understanding. A better life and a wiser way.

You may think you have everyone.

But you don't.

You are wrong. You are wrong. You're wrong. Oh, you are so wrong.

Pain can bring more than that.

Happiness, love and thoughtfulness.

You may lose a few friends, but you'll gain others later on.

(Instruments palying for one to two minutes and 15 seconds)

(The music slows down and softens)

You may feel alone, but it's normal.

Friendships come and go, but their will be other ones.

Ones that care. Ones that really...about you.

Pain can bring more than sorrow.

Pain can bring more than regret and fear.

Pain can bring, pain can bring...absolute joy.'

(Song slowly ends)

And started reading the other lyrics Leah wrote and said, "I like these."

"You do?" Leah said.

"Of course. You're a talented writer," Leah's mom said.

"But they're lame."

"They're not lame. All you have to do is sync it together with the music."

"Yeah, your mom's right. They're awesome," Carley said as Leah's mom gave her back the paper that has her lyrics on it and walked back into her room, "Hey, you know what?"

"What?" Leah wondered.

"We haven't thought of a name for our band."

"Hey. You're right. Any ideas?" Leah suggested as the both of them began thinking until she yelled, "I got it!"

"What is it?" Carley wondered.

"How about...The Dark Thunder!!"

"That sounds cool, but I was thinking of the band name to be called Fireix."

"Can I ask why?"

"I don't know. I just think it's a cool name," Carley replied.

"But I like Dark Thunder," Leah said thinkng.

"I know, but I think Fireix is a cooler band name than Dark Thunder," Carley said as Leah gasped in horror.

"How could you say that? Dark Thunder is a kick ass name for our band!"

"Fireix is better! Dark Thunder is too, well, dark. People will think we worship Satan."

"That's not true. Killswitch Engage doesn't sing about death and neither does Linkin Park or My Chemical Romance."

"Well, yeah, but I still want it to be Fireix," Carley said.

"Dark Thunder."

"Fireix."

"Dark Thunder."

"Fireix."

"Dark Thunder."

"Fireix!"

"Dark Thunder!"

The two females continued to argue for the band name until Leah figured out how they can pick a name.

"I got it!" She said.

"Got what?" Carley wondered half annoyed.

"The perfect name for the band."

"I'm listening."

"Our band name shall be...The Dark Fireix!!"
