Hitting Unexpected Notes Everyone sat in Raye's living room, just being bored. No one talked. They just, sat there. Serena was lightly tapping her hand on the hardwood floor. Raye sighed. Mina twiddled her thumbs. Lita sat, day dreaming about a wrestling match. "Err... Just to let everyone know, this is an attempt to break silence." Serena started. "What do we ever want to do with this band? Be a hometown band, world famous?" Serena looked at them all with eyes of questions. "Well I guess I want to be famous..." Lita said. "Who are we kidding? We would love to be famous!" Mina laughed. "But we're not that good. We'd never make it in show business!" Raye explained. "Not with that attitude we won't!" Serena chuckled. "And you don't just walk up to a recording studio and say 'we're making a CD, get out of our way!' you start small and work up!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Thank you everyone! Your a wonderful crowd!" Serena spoke into the microphone. Serena gave a sad smile. The crowd seemed un-entertained by their music. Serena stepped down, and off the stage and reached for her water bottle. A hand stopped her and she looked up. "Hello Serena." Said a man. "Do I- Do I know you?" Serena asked raising an eyebrow. "No, but you will," the man explained. "I'm Dougless Flatt. I work for a record company." Dougless said handing Serena a card. "It's my job to go around looking for talented people. Tell me, how long has your group been playing at this bar?" Dougless asked looking at Serena, who was looking at his card. "A week and a half maybe, I really don't remember." Serena said truthfully. "Well how would you like to record a CD? You're very talented people." Dougless said. Serena rolled her eyes. "Yeah that explains all the shouts for encores we're getting." Serena said sarcastically looking at the people who were throwing beer bottles. "Serena, they're drunk. They wouldn't know good music if you shoved it up their-" Dougless was cut off. "Wait, wait, are you offering us a record deal?" Serena asked just catching on. "Ah, I see you've figured it out." He answered. "Well, I don't know, I'll have to talk it over with the rest of the band. But I'll give you a call Dougless." Serena told him walking back up the steps. "You do that. Oh, and call me Doug." (AN you mean I've been writing 'Dougless' all this time for nothing????) Doug winked then walked off.
"Who was that Serena?" Darien asked, his guitar hanging around his shoulders from a guitar strap. "It was a recording agent. He wants to know if we want to record a CD?" Serena handed Darien the card and he looked it over. "Dougless Flatt!!!??? He only talks to people with TALENT!" Darien screamed. "What did you tell him?!?" Darien asked anxiously. "I told him I'd have to talk to you guys about it." Serena replied, shrugging her shoulders. "I would have said 'yes' but...We don't even have a name yet." Serena explained. "A NAME!?!?!" Everyone shouted.
~ To Be Continued ~ HELP!!!! I need a name! Give me some ideas! Please! I was thinking along the lines of... I don't know. Anonymous? Unknown? Crowd? Star Struck??? Just please give me some ideas. I suck at band names. I REALLY SUCK at them. So please help me in my time of dilemma. : ( Writing by moon light and day light, eternal sailor moon
