Dear Diary,
Well, I met up with Corey and Kin in the cemetery again and guess what Corey's plan was . . . Mmmhmmm, you guessed it. He was planning to wake up the zombies again and send them after Trina.
Sometimes I think Corey should be in a special school. I don't know Diary; maybe one night when he's asleep I could sneak into his bedroom, gag him and then drag him off to Peaceville's Mental Health Care Centre.
So anyway, I met the insane duo in the spot where we last practiced Corey's song. It looked kind of different (And less scary) probably because sunlight was streaming through the trees and the grounds man had planted a couple of rose bushes and periwinkle flowers around the graves. It looked wonderful. But I knew Corey's crazy plan would make the colorful cemetery turn into fifty shades of grey.
"The plan is simple. " Corey began. "Kin will have to scare Trina with some creepy clown puppets forcing her to run towards the cemetery. Laney and I will be rehearsing my song and wake up the zombies and when that happens, Laney?"
"Huh?" I said distractedly. I was too busy looking around at the newly transformed grounds to focus on Corey's plan but I managed to absorb everything right down to the tiniest detail. Once Trina runs away scared, Corey and I will quickly change the song to 'Zombie dance' and send them all back to their graves. Also Kin will activate hologram Kon to play the drums.
. . .
Corey, Kin and I went to visit Kon at around 1:00pm. He was looking much better then. "What have you guys been up to?" He asked Corey. "I know you're planning something, you wouldn't let the humiliation go unless you got revenge."
"You got that right."
We spent the next hour filling Kon in on the details and messing around until visiting hours were done and we left for the garage. By the time it was 5:00pm, the stage was already set up and hologram Kon was doing a drum solo. Kin tested out his remote controlled puppets and when he was certain that they were ready, he went out to find Trina. We got a tip from the groupies that Trina was planning to go to the movies with Mina and was trying to get Nick back.
Damn, that girl's pretty determined to have Nick as her boyfriend.
. . .
It was two hours later when we heard a high pitched scream in the distance, it was Trina.
"Arrrrrrrrrgh! Scary puppets!" She screamed aloud.
That was our cue. Corey and I quickly jumped to our instruments and began playing Corey's deranged song. We kept playing for two minutes before the zombies emerged, at the same time Trina came crashing out of the rose bushes with tiny leaves and branches stuck in her pink hair. She looked like she had been out in the amazon for two days. She froze in her tracks when she saw the undead folks walking towards her. She just stood there for about three seconds before letting out a second high pitched scream that echoed throughout the entire graveyard. Her eyes were filled with terror and her hair stood up on the ends, she nearly looked like a zombie herself except for the fair skin and pink hair. She ran back to the gate squealing like a piglet. The puppets weren't there. Kin came to the stage, took his keyboard and we transposed to 'Zombie dance'. All the zombies stopped chasing Trina and stopped for a moment to listen to the song. In a couple of minutes they had all danced their way back to their graves.
. . .
We snuck into the hospital at 11:00pm and told Kon all about our revenge on Trina. We were surprised when suddenly the screen came on and there was Trina screaming her head off.
"How did. . . ?" I began but Kin cut me off. "I asked Kate and Allie to film Trina."
"Awesome bro." Kon said as he high fived Kin.
We watched the show for the next five minutes laughing our heads off and then we snuck back out. It was a good night.
Yours truly,
Laney Penn (Bassist)
