Ch10: It can still work!
Jasmine sniffled hugging her knees as a silent tear rolled down her cheeks. 'It didn't work, it didn't work, it didn't work. Why didn't it work!' Kept repeating through her head.
Dr. Kauz called earlier telling them he had finished the machine to turn the boys back to their regular age. They all rushed to the professor's home to test the machine and guess what?
"It didn't work." Jasmine whispered looking at the floor. She knew someone was going to come check on her soon she'd been hiding in the bathroom for some time now. Though she was pretty sure Katie was doing the same in their shared bedroom.
"Jasmine?" A voice outside the door called.
'Right on cue.' Jasmine thought wiping her eyes. "Who's there?"
"Two boys who are really worried about you." Henry said slowly opening the door. James carefully walked in and rushed to Jasmine's side. "Why are you so sad?" The little boy asked carefully warping his arms around Jasmine's neck which he could easily reach seeing she was sitting on the floor.
"It's alright James." Jasmine said slowly returning the hug. "I just feel bad for all the things you haven't remembered yet."
"But it's okay I'll remember it someway." James smiled.
"Of course you will." Jasmine nodded patting his shoulder.
Henry sighed as he knelt down in front of her. "I'm so sorry." He said.
"It's not your fault." Jasmine sighed slowly getting up. "I need to see how Katie's doing. You coming Jamesey?" She asked smiling at the eight year old.
"Uh-huh." James nodded running ahead of her.
Jasmine chuckled watching him run.
"Are you sure your okay?" Henry asked putting a hand on her shoulder.
Jasmine nodded. "Yeah.. It's just... I'm not happy with myself right now!" She said in a whiny voice.
"What do you mean?" Henry chuckled.
"I really don't want to but I'm jealous of Katie." She confessed. "I just wish James remembered me more not just me being his niece or fragments."
Henry smiled warmly. "You really think knowing he's your brother will make much of a difference?"
"What do you mean?"
"Your friend Katie said that even when both you and James didn't know you were siblings you were siblings or acted like it."
"That's deep." Jasmine smiled.
Both frowned passing Gustavo's room hearing mutterings coming from the inside. "They are gonna make it to the concert! They are going perform at the concert! They are not gonna miss the concert!" Jasmine and Henry frowned quietly passing the room. "Poor Gustavo but the concert is in one and a half hour." Jasmine shook her head.
"Man your good!" Katie grinned once they walked in the living room.
Jasmine blinked. "You send him...?"
Katie nodded. "You wouldn't talk to me so I figured let someone fresh and new try to cheer little Jazzy up." Katie grinned hugging the older girl.
Jasmine chuckled sitting down. "Alright so who managed to get you out of the room?"
Katie smiled looking to the side. Jasmine followed her gaze and smiled at little Kendall who was drawing a hockey monster.
Everyone looked up when they heard loud commotion comming from outside. "That's my dad's car." Heinrich whispered.
BTR-BTR-BTR-BTR.
"I can still fix it!" Dr. Kauz called from his pick up.
"What are you talking about!" Kelly yelled over the blaring sound of the engine.
"The machine didn't work because we didn't have enough power! My lab that's where the shrinking ray worked I'm positive the de-shrinking ray will work to!" The men explained.
"Really!" Jasmine and Katie gasped grins coming to their faces.
"So we'll remember everything again?" Kendall asked grinning.
Dr. Kauz nodded a small smile forming on his face.
"And we will still be able to make the concert?" Gustavo asked/yelled.
"Eh no." Katie shot that down.
"The concert starts in an hour and the drive to the lab alone takes an whole hour." Kelly sighed shaking her head.
"But..." James looked up frowning slightly.
"What is it Jamesey?" Jasmine asked sounding much more like herself. James smiled. "I saw this on tv once someone else the band knows who sings good tries to stall the show before the band comes back."
Jasmine smiled. "Yeah that's a great idea but where are we gonna find someone to stall the concert for us?"
She looked up to see everyone was giving her a funny look. "What?"
BTR-BTR-BTR-BTR.
"Watch 'the hair'!" Jasmine snapped at one of the stylists when he put a silver hat on her. She stood up and looked in the mirror and couldn't help but grin. She was now in a black skinny jeans and a white sleeves top with two stars above her chest. she wore short white boots and she had a small silver star on her cheek giving her the real rock star look.
"Nervous?" Henry asked.
"I have no lines or script whatsoever and no idea of what to do I'm feeling great!" Jasmine grinned.
A men in suit walked up to them and whispered something to Jasmine.
"What is it?" Henry asked looking at Jasmine's face he could see worry and excitement. "It's sold out." Jasmine whispered. "There's no way this village is big enough to fill the entire crowd which means people all over Germany came to see Big Time Rush." She stopped to think. "I have to stall all those people..."
Henry smiled. "Don't worry this town is so boring they'll love it anyway."
"Jasmine it's time!" The stage manager called.
BTR-BTR-BTR-BTR.
"Helloooo Germany!" Jasmine yelled when she and Henry went up stage.
"Hallooo Deutschland!" Henry translated.
"I am terribly sorry to interrupt your show but Big Time Rush is running a bit late. But don't worry we are here to warm you up for the show." Jasmine told the audience grinning cheerfully.
"Ich bin teribly leid, aber Ihre Show interpt Big Time Rush ist ein bisschen spät dran. Aber keine Sorge, wir sind hier zum Aufwärmen für die Show." Henry said with the same amount of enthusiasm.
"So we all know Big Time Rush is coming so what songs are you all hoping to hear tonight?" Jasmine asked.
"So wissen wir alle Big Time Rush kommt so was Liedern Sie alle hoffen, dass heute Abend hören?" Was the translation.
The audience didn't really look to bothered that they'd have to wait longer to see Big Time Rush and all started suggesting songs.
"Did I hear someone asking for Big Time? Well let's all practice that one un till the boys come back?" Jasmine asked hoping the boys really were coming in their normal age.
"Habe ich jemanden fragen, für Big Time? Nun lasst uns alle der Praxis, dass eine un bis die Jungs wieder kommen?"
Jasmine gave the signal to start the music and she took a deep breath to keep herself for worrying. "Oh oh ooh!"
"Make it count play it straight don't look back don't hesitate." Henry started.
Jasmine held the microphone to the audience "When you go Big Time!" Everyone sang/yelled.
BTR-BTR-BTR-BTR.
"How much money does Gustavo need to pay to bribe on officer to let us in!" Katie snapped. She and the boys were still in the car. Nobody was allowed in the lab since the explosion.
"Relax Katie." Kendall said from the backseat.
Katie sighed. "It's not so easy Kenny." She muttered crossing her arms.
"Why not?" Carlos asked.
"If this doesn't work it could take years for dr. freak to fix the machine and for all we know the machine will restore all your memories." Katie explained not looking at the boys.
"If you put it that we we do have a lot to worry about." Logan gulped.
Kendall shook his head. "Yeah but you'll worry more if you think of all the bad stuff that could happen."
Katie chuckled. "You really always were the optimistic one were you."
"Dogs move!" Gustavo yelled quickly getting in the car.
"So can we get in?" Kelly asked.
"Nope." Gustavo said.
"Wait so you just gave up?" Katie gasped.
"No way! Professor step on it!" Gustavo yelled as dr. Kauz drove past the officers as fast as he could manage with the old car.
BTR-BTR-BTR-BTR.
"Ready boys?" Dr. Kauz asked as all four boys stood in front of the machine.
"Hurry up!" everyone yelled. Dr. Kauz pushed a big red button the machine shook wildly and...
"Nothing happened..." Kelly whispered when Katie sank to her knees.
"NO!" Gustavo screamed running to the machine and began hitting it. "It has to work they have a concert to go to!" He screamed kicking the machine. "Gustavo!" Kelly yelled about to warn him to watch his blood pressure when the machine began smoking.
"Look out!" Katie screamed as she, Kelly, Gustavo and dr. Kauz took a step back.
