Chapter 14: The backfire

(Disclaimer! I own nothing of Groband!)

Laney and Corey were walking around the festival and saw Amanda.

"Ready?" Corey asked as Laney nodded.

"Ready" she said.

Amanda then started walking by them and saw Corey and Laney fighting.

"What?!" Corey said play fighting.

"Yeah this is all your fault!" Laney started. "You said Amanda was more important than me!"

"I said no such thing" said Corey.

"Last time I checked was you had a photo of Amanda as your home screen." Laney scoffed

"I would never do such a thing!" Said Corey.

"I obviously know you're talking crap! Well you know what!?" Laney said angrily while Amanda smiled deviously.

"What?" Asked Corey as Laney winked.

"You're nothing but a lying, repulsive, immature teen that falls for bad bratty girls!" Laney said describing Corey. "Maybe if we're going to fight this much, we should split up!"

"OK now you're being ridiculous!" Said Corey.

"Look who's talking!" Snapped Laney.

"Really?!" Corey said.

"Screw you" she shouted, "I'm outta here!" She left and gave Corey a wink when Amanda didn't look.

Amanda smiled evilly and went to Corey.

"What do you want?" Asked Corey.

"I wanted to see how my little Cowey's doing." Amanda said putting her hands on his shoulders.

"What do you mean 'your' Corey" he asked.

"Well since Lamey mentioned that you had me as your home screen, I would happily glad to be your girlfriend again." Amanda smiled.

"No way" said Corey.

"Well I guess I have no choice" said Amanda. She snapped her fingers and Tank grabbed him.

"Did you really think I was gonna fall for that?" She grinned

"Let...go...off me!" Corey struggled.

"Don't worry" said Amanda, you'll be together with Laney soon" pork chop had Laney captive.

"PUT ME DOWN YOU MUTT!" shouted Laney.

"Let us go right now!" said Corey.

"Can't do that" said Amanda, "lock them up in the van"

"You have never changed!" Corey said.

"That's right" said Amanda. Tank and pork chop threw Corey and Laney in the van and locked them in.

Melina saw what happened and went to tell the others.

Meanwhile with Carrie and Larry…..

"Let me just say that when we fight I do not mean anything I say," said Carrie.

"Me neither."Larry said

"Let's just get this over with," said Carrie.

Larry had just let out a sigh.

"What are you talking about Carrie?!" said Larry.

"You heard me!" shouted Carrie play fighting.

"What did I do?" Said Larry.

"Many things!" Carrie exclaimed.

Tank was listening.

"You don't care abouit anyone but yourself!" shouted Carrie.

"Well you always mistaken me for a girl!" said Larry, "So maybe you're to blame for all this!"

"Excuse me," said Carrie.

Larry saw a UFO in orbit.

"Um…. Carrie?" asked Larry.

"What?!" she snapped.

Larry pointed behind her.

It was the UFO and it released the Orb experience.

"Remember us?" asked the blue orb.

Tank grinned.

Laney was trying to pound the door down.

"Ugh well done! Now what?" Laney growled.

Corey just looked to the floor.

"I can't believe it," said Corey.

Laney looked down on the floor.

"Now the band's gonna have to break up and never play another gig again," said Laney, "All because of your so called 'scheme'!"

"I guess this is all my fault," said Corey.

"Oh no you don't, you're just acting like you're the one to blame," said Laney, "Well you can stop acting. BECAUSE YOU REALLY ARE TO BLAME!"

Corey felt even more depressed.

Laney looked at him.

"Core... I didn't mean it"

"Its OK" said Corey

"No its not" she said as she hugged him, "I'm sorry. I just overreacted."

"It is. It was my idea for us to 'fight' and look where it got us." Corey said.

"Well we didn't know she would find out" said Laney, "besides we always managed to get out of situations like this" she smiled.

"Yeah I guess your right." Corey started smiling.

"Besides, no one can split me from my Corey bear" she said.

She kissed him.

"Yeah," said Corey as he hugged her.

"I love you," said Laney.

"I love you too," said Corey.

Katrina was looking for Corey and Laney.

"Corey?" she asked, "Where are you?"

She looked and saw someone that looked like Laney. It was actually Melina.

"Melina, have you seen Corey and Laney?" she asked.

"Corey…. Laney…. Kidnapped….." said Melina as she was breathing.

"Train," said Katrina.

She saw him walking by and tackled him.

She tried to strangle him and pull his arm.

Mina and Melina held her back.

"What did you do to my baby brother?!" she shouted.

"What are you talking about?" asked Train.

"You know what I'm talking about!" said Katrina as she tried to strangle him again.

Kim and Konnie were looking for Larry and Carrie.

"Have you seen Carrie and Larry?" they asked.

Train pushed Trina off him. "She's missing?" he asked.

"Wow, I guess you weren't behind this," said Katrina.

"I saw a muscled guitar player take Carrie and Larry to a ship," said a kid.

"Tank!" said Katrina and Train in unison.

They rushed over to the ship and saw the orb experience.

"You let my sister go right now!" said Mina.

"How great of you to join us," said the green orb.

"You see the orbs and we had a truce," said Tank.

"Truce?" asked Melina.

"They hate Grojband and the Newmans just as much as we do," said Tank, "So I agreed that if I could trap Corey and Laney, they'd help us get rid of a certain…. Problem. But we couldn't do it alone without a special someone."

He snapped his fingers

They brought Mina over to them.

"Mina!" said Katrina.

"We used these two as bait to draw you over to us Mina," said the pink orb.

"Why me?" asked Mina.

"Remember?" asked the blue orb.

It showed her images of when Trina left Mina to die to save Nick Mallory.

"Those images….." she said.

"Mina, don't listen to…." Said Katrina before Tank grabbed her and covered her mouth.

"Didn't you always want to get rid of her for all the crap she put you through?" asked the purple orb.

"I….." she said.

"Well now's your chance," said the blue orb. It gave her a cannon.

Tank tied her hands together and put her in the center where Mina could aim.

"Do it," said the pink orb, "This will put an end to Grojband's music writing."

Mina aimed the cannon at her.

"I'm sorry old friend," said Mina.

"Mina as much as I hate Grojband, this isn't the way," said Carrie!"

"Mina don't!" said Katrina muffled with tears in her eyes, "I'm sorry!"

She turned the cannon around and fired at part of the UFO.

"Katrina may have put me through a lot, but it was all to help Grojband become big!" said Mina. She cut Carrie and Larry free.

"Come on Lar," said Carrie. She took his hand and they jumped down.

"And if I go down you orbs are going with me!" she said.

Kin and Kon came running at tank.

"Get your hands off of her!" Kon shouted.

He punched Tank in the face and cut Katrina free.

Mina shot more of the UFO until it was close to exploding.

"Mina!" said Katrina.

The UFO exploded.

Everyone took cover until the dust settled.

"Mina!" said Katrina. She looked from scrap to scrap to find her best friend, but she was nowhere to be seen.

She saw her glasses and they were busted.

"Bernadette….." she said starting to cry, "Please don't leave me….. don't leave me like this!"

She cried and soon the others did.

Kim and Konnie hugged each other and so did Kin and Kon.

Carrie cried and hugged Larry tight.

Someone put their hand on Katrina.

"I'm not going anywhere," she said.

Katrina turned and saw that Mina was alive.

She hugged her tight.

"Mina, you're alive!" she said as she hugged her tight.

"Yeah," she said, "Um… you're crushing me."

"Oops, sorry," she said as she let go, "I promise, I'll never take advantage of you ever again."

Mina hugged her. "I was never mad at you," she said.

"Um, I hate to break the moment, but we have two dorks to save," said Carrie.

"My glasses aren't gonna do me anymore good anytime soon," said Mina.

"I'll get you some new glasses," said Katrina, "Now let's go save my little brother."

Tank called Amanda.

"We failed," said Tank.

"No matter," said Amanda, "We'll destroy them on stage in front of everyone soon enough."

Corey and Laney were looking at the lyrics he wrote.

"If Trina goes diary we might be able to finish these," said Corey.

"Yeah," said Laney, "But right now we should worry about getting out of here."

The others made it to the truck that Corey and Laney were trapped in.

"Leave this to me," said Kon.

He charged at the door and busted it down.

"Kon?" asked Corey and Laney in Unison.

"Jinx," said Corey.

"Hey little brother," said Katrina. Corey and Laney ran out and hugged the others.

Katrina kissed Kon on the cheek and he blushed.

Kin smiled.

"Don't say a word," said Kon

"Kin," said Melina.

"Yeah," said Kin.

Melina grabbed Kin by the shirt and kissed him.

"Awwwwwww," said everyone.

"Now let's win ourselves a festival," said Corey.

"Yeah," said Carrie, "It doesn't matter who gets first or second. What matters is that we beat One for All, once and for all."

They all put their hands together.

"Operation end One for All and get our stardom back and become the best bands in the…." Said Corey.

"Corey," said everyone.

"Sorry," said Corey, "Operation take down One for All, is on!" said Corey

They all lifted their hands from the sky.
