Lawrence

Since Freddy and Katie left, Lawrence, Summer, and Dewey was left supposedly supposed to be talking.

"Why aren't you going to the high school that I'm going to Lawrence?" asked Summer.

"Because I'm in a high school that gives a musical scholarship," Lawrence said robotically. "If I really wanted to go to the high school your teaching, then I would give up my dreams of being a pianist musician."

"Are you sure its your dream?" Summer asked. "I mean, you said you needed a rocking keyboard to play at and you said you couldn't take being a classical musician."

"Dude, you need to remember about "The Man," Dewey brought up. "He can't be like, 'Oh, Lawrence forgot about me. I'm done trying.' He'll probably punish you for not being a great keyboard player and not be in something called MTV. I mean, honestly, being in a rock band is even better than being in a dumb classical orchestra, because you know you're not going to be famous as one person but as a stinking orchestra and the orchestra is big!"

Lawrence thought about it for a moment. It was true. It wasn't his dream of being a classical musician. It was his dad's dream for him to be a classical musician.

"So," Summer said. "Dewey had a point about "The Man" because he won't give up trying until you are in a high voltage, heavy rocking band."

"And you know who really is "The Man?" asked Dewey in a reassuring voice.

Lawrence shook his head. It was so funny that they were making such a big deal about something not really big.

"I am," Dewey said lifting both his eyebrows. "So I won't give up trying until you become in a kick-ass rock band show."

Lawrence was surprised about what Dewey and Summer brought up. It was true. Dewey wasn't going to give up.

"I will go to the high school and forget about the stinking classical scholarship," replied Lawrence.

"Now that's what Mr. Cool is all about!" Dewey said in a low, scratchy voice.

Freddy

Freddy went out his dad's car and got his bags. Right in front of Freddy's eyes was the school that Freddy would go to. He scowled. He could tell that this school was going to be like Horace Green Prep School. He had to wear these juvenile uniforms and could only wear non-uniform clothes during the weekends.

He started walking to the school. As he walked, girls started whispering endlessly and giggling and blushing endlessly. There was no doubt that every girl has a crush on Freddy Jones. He just knows, by the way they blush and smile. Freddy just smiled at them as he went to the principal's office with his dad. The office looked so old and so dusty.

The principal, who looked like she just had a hang-over, smiled at Freddy and his dad.

"Welcome to Hartford Riverdale New York High-school," she said. "You must be Freddy Jones," the principal said. "Nice to meet you."

She gave him a handshake. "I'm Ms. Crocker."

When they were in the principal office, they started talking and babbling about the uniforms, schedules, and so on.

Then, a pale boy came in. He was holding a bunch of papers and notebooks and he put it on the table.

"Am I done now?" the boy groaned.

Ms. Crocker eyed the boy and said, "Can you please show this new student around?"

"Yes," the pale boy said dully. "Last job, hopefully."

Freddy stood up and went to the pale boy.

"Hi," Freddy then brought up. "My name is Freddy Jones."

The pale boy stopped. His ears were getting red and his eyes were bulging out.

"Spazzy Mcgee?" he said. He scowled.

"How'd you know?" Freddy said eyeing the unusual boy. "Did you go to Horace Green?"

"Let me put it this way," he said. "I was the most popular boy in Horace Green after School of Rock was formed.

"Billy?" Freddy asked. "It's true, after School of Rock, I'm pretty sure he is the most famous boy in school."

"You're crazy," the boy said. "Billy's out there in the fashion world wearing high heeled shoes and mini skirts."

"Who are you?" Freddy asked.

"I can't believe you don't remember," the boy replied getting really irritated. He started walking. "Do I really look that different?"

"Whoever you are," Freddy replied. "I don't remember knowing you."

"My name is Zack Mooneyham," he said. He started walking fast. "I can't believe you forgot."

"Zack?" Freddy replied. "Wh-Why are you here? I mean- what the heck? This is driving me nuts!"

"Well," Zack said. "I'm here because of my dad who wanted me to go to this really crazy annoying school. Trust me, you're not going to like this school."

"Well, my dad also wanted me to go this high school," Freddy replied.

"This is like a really freakish coincidence," Zack said. "All of a sudden, I meet Marta and Tomika. Then I-"

"Marta and Tomika are here?" Freddy screamed.

Zack sighed. "Dude, you're acting like you just arrived from another planet."

"Well," Freddy said. "After three years, I saw Katie, Lawrence, and Summer."

"You saw Katie?" Zack said wide-eyed once again. "How is she? Does she ever talk about me? What's her telephone number? Does she have an email address?"

"Why would I tell you?" Freddy asked. "After what you've done to me three years ago? Why would I?"

Marta

"I can't believe Zack would just ignore me whenever I say hi," Marta said as she braided her hair in her dorm mirror. She was talking to Tomika.

"Marta," Tomika said. "Zack doesn't hate you. It's just that, maybe, he doesn't want to hang out with us or talk to us in public places because- trust me Marta- I think people are starting to think he's gay."

"How?" Marta said banging on the table gently. "What's the problem with hanging out with us? How do people think he's gay?"

"I don't have the answers," Tomika said sincerely.

"I just wish he wouldn't treat us that bad," Marta whispered. "It really hurts."

After the break up, Zack wasn't that famous anymore.

Marta starting crying, Tomika sat right next her rubbing her back as Marta cried.

Marta, as most people would describe her, is sensitive. She could cry from animals that just got shot, to friends who ignore her. If she were to watch the news, you could already see her tears flowing down if there was a missing person or somebody who just got killed. Even by the way she dressed, you could tell she was sensitive. During the weekends, she would wear a thin blouse, and matching jeans. Her hair were either in two braids or in one. And she doesn't wear make-up at all. The last time she wore make- up was the last band practice the band ever had.

"Well," Marta said, drying her tears. "I just hope that he wouldn't be treating us like this, once I try to talk to him about it."

Katie

"I wonder who's online right at this moment," Katie replied.

Katie was super excited that she packed four days ahead. She couldn't wait to see Summer and Freddy in the school. But of course, after all the excitement, she didn't know what to do and her only home was instant messaging. Luckily, Lawrence and Summer were online, and they talked online together.

Techno Dude- Hi Posh Spice.

Bass Gal- What's up Mr. Cool"?

Techno- Dude- With a little bit of encouragement from Summer and Duey, I decided to go to the high school you're going to.

Bass Gal- Really?

Summer- Yep.

Bass Gal- What kind of user name is "Summer"? It's kind of dumb Summer.

Summer- I didn't know what user name I should put!

Techno Dude- I don't really have a care in the world.

Katie just kept on instant messaging Summer and Lawrence about some really weird subjects until her mom went inside her room.

"Do you mind if you and me go out together right now?" Her mom asked. "A time for just me and you?"

Katie smiled and nodded. She turned off her computer, and put on her coat. She held her mom's hand, as they went outside her apartment. Holding tight as if she was just seven years old.

They went to the mall, and her mom bought her some clothes. When they were in the Food-court.

"You know, Zack's mom called," her mom said.

"Really?" Katie said in a hurtful voice. "Well, I don't really care about him."

Katie knew she didn't mean that, because she really wanted the band to be complete. The fought began and it all started with Zack.

When they were 14, Zack was acting as if he was the most popular band member. All the girls and guys would ask him for the autographs. He got the most screams than any of the band members in the band. Katie began to feel hurt because when she did her solos, nobody really clapped, or screamed for her. Freddy and Lawrence saw that Zack was starting to act like he was the band manager or the head of everything.

He composes his own songs and not as a group.

---Flashback---

"This song I composed will be like the album's name," Zack said. "I also organized some shows there in Los Angeles and we're joining Battle of the Bands again. I can't wait to get the screams that I usually get!"

Katie frowned. As Freddy saw her, he wanted to argue with Zack. Katie just took her bass. Biting her lip, her eyes getting watery.

"What do you think Zack?" Freddy fought him. "We're going to listen to you about the songs only you composed?"

"Yeah," Zack said. "Got a problem that?"

"Actually we do," Freddy fought back. "You better back-off, dude because we're suppose to be working as a band not as one person." "Why are we number one?" Zack pushed him. "Why do we get the most fans?"

"You know what?" Freddy pushed him back. "I hate you Zack."

They started punching and fighting.

"You guys!" Katie screamed. She went in between them holding them back. "I think Freddy's making a point."

Zack then screamed at her, "Why aren't you sticking with me?"

"You know what Zack?" Katie said while one of her eyes is about to drop a tear. "I think you can go better off alone in School of Rock. As I said, Freddy has a point. Who get's all the long solos? You. Who gets 3 second solos? Me. So I'm going to quit no matter how much it hurts me."

"If Katie's quitting," Freddy said. "I'm quitting too."

"But you guys-"Zack started as Katie and Freddy walked out of Zack's house.

Lawrence must've felt bad also and without a word, Lawrence left too.

"Zack," Summer said. "You should think about what you've done."

As soon as Summer left, Zack knew he wouldn't succeed as a solo artist.

End of Flashback

"Why don't you care about him?" Katie's mom asked.

"He became the most popular guy in School of Rock," Katie said twisting her spaghetti. "But now that I quit, I don't really care if I get that famous anymore. I just want to be friends again and play as a band."

"You should care," Katie's mom said. "You know, Zack Moodyham has a major crush on you."

"Hard to imagine," Katie said. "After what's done to me? It just feels impossible."

"I guess so," her mom said. "Let's see once you get to the high school. You'll probably find out about how Zack has a major crush on you."

Summer

"Summer, dear!" her mom called out from the living room kitchen. "Time to wrap it up! You got to leave now!"

"Coming!" Summer said. She got her luggage. "See you during Christmas, room."

She smiled and walked slowly to the living room

"I'm all set," Summer said.

Her mom gave her a big hug. Her mom started sobbing, her tears went down to Summer's coat.

"I love you Summer," she whispered in her ear. "So, so very much."

"I love you too, Mom." Summer said trying so hard not to cry. "I'll miss you."

"I'll miss you too darling," her mom said combing her hair with her fingers. "Never change, Summer. Never change."

When Summer left, her tears fell. She knew it was going to be a hard time teaching a bunch of seniors. No matter how smart Summer is, she still has a sensitive side. All she wants is to be a normal teenager. What's more to ask for?

Once she arrived, she saw this school that reminded her so much of Horace Green. As she walked inside, a bunch of 9th and 10th graders started staring.

Summer thought, I wonder how they're going to react once they find out that I'm going to be a stinking teacher.
