I'm writing this in the timeframe of the Screwy Seven, but I digress.  Elliott will be taking Zara's place.  ((You can thank me later, Rissa.))  I doubt that Les would like to be in here, which is the only reason that I'm going to use Elliott instead of her.  Have a good day.

Zara, if you flame this because you have a problem with my choices, then don't even read my stuff anymore.

And now, your moment of Zen...

            Part II

*-*-*-*

            Never mind how he got to the little cottage in the middle of nowhere.  That doesn't matter.  What matters is that now Captain Fly stood in front of a little cottage after being led there by a group of Pennsylvanian walruses.  He ventured in to find the room cluttered with Band stuff all over the place.  One bed stood out from the other because it was the one clean area in the room.  A Clarinet case rested on the bed and there was no clutter.  There were seven beds altogether, each with a sign on the headboard: Amanda, Rissa, Elliott, Allison, Wendy, Audrua and Amyn.   Captain Fly studied the room, taking in the feeling of having gone crazy, when he heard the sound of the birds singing outside.  He froze.  "Oh my gosh!" he exclaimed and ran to the window and the birds.  "Y'all are flat!" he yelled at them.  "How do you even think you're going to sound better than the other birds if you're out of tune?!"  They cocked their heads to the side and he set to work fixing their song.

*-*-*-*

            "Now, begin at measure 45 and remember to use vibrato!"  The four birds immediately began when he counted them off and the four parts rang out with a remarkably in tune sound in perfect unison.  The Screwy Seven walked up behind Captain Fly as he conducted the quartet.  Once they had finished six minutes later, the group began to clap and the birds and their conductor bowed.  He then turned around and his eyes widened in horror.  "NOOOOOO!  Y'ALL FOLLOWED ME!!!!" 

            Amanda blinked.  "Yeah...  that's in the story..."

            Now, it was Captain Fly's turn to blink.  "There's a story?"

            Rissa nodded her head slowly.  "Yeah...  That's why we're all so out of character.  I mean, COME ON...  you wouldn't be checking your hair out in the mirror on a *normal* day, now would you?"

            Captain Fly thought this over.  "You're right..."

            Elliott looked around him.  "But anyway."

            Rissa thought this over.  "What's the point in this story?"

            "Uh...  I don't know."  Captain Fly pulled out a book that looked suspiciously like the score to "Spoon River," looked it over and turned to the seven.  "I can't read this!  Gya!"

            Amanda smiled, took a hold of the score and turned it over.  "It was upside down, dear."  The seven kids sweatdropped.  Captain Fly blinked.

            "Okay..."

            "Actually...  In the real story, Snow White is asleep in a bed and the seven dwarfs find her."  She looked at Captain Fly.  "You're supposed to be asleep...but you're not, so now what?"

            "Let's just act shocked," Amyn suggested.

            "Yeah... maybe that will work...   perhaps..."  Manda mused over this to herself.  "Let's just pick up from where the story would have happened!"

            "Sure," Rissa said.  Captain Fly stared blankly at the kids.  This was going to be a long story.

            I had to post something... We're out of school now ((look at my bio)) and so I'm going to write a lot... but I had to put this up in a hurry.  So sorry.  MORE TO COME...  if I get enough reviews.  =)

            Look out for the next part of Rissa's "Snoring Beaut!!"
