DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the school of rock characters that are featured in the movie. I made Kayla up on my own. If she sounds like someone in another fan fiction I'm sorry but I did not know. Please read and review. This is my first fan fiction please be kind.

SUMMARY: Katie Brown was always in the shadow of her older sister Kayla. Katie's parents were always talking about how they wished that Katie was more like Kayla. Katie has started writing a song and you will see the writing process in the story. The School of Rock band is now in the seventh grade (7th) there might be some romance. I don't know and yes this is based one the Ashlee Simpson song "Shadow". Hope you enjoy it.

The next day at breakfast Mrs. Brown had a surprise for Katie. "Katlyn, I have signed you up for Dance Company." "What's that?" Katie asked. "Well you take dance classes and learn dance routines and perform them in front of judges at computations. I've signed you up for ballet, jazz, tap, and hip-hop." Mrs. Brown said this with a big smile on her face. "But Mom I don't want to do dance company!!!!!" Katie yelled. Mrs. Brown 's smile quickly faded and was replaced with a scowl "Katlyn you will do this or you will not be in that band of yours anymore! Besides you will be more like you sister. And that's that." "Fine!" Katie yelled and ran all the way to school. When she got to school she accidentally bumped in to someone. "Watch it!" the boy yelled. "You 7th graders are so stupid." At this Katie blew up. "You think I'm stupid All you 8th graders think that the world revolves around you. Just because I'm a year younger than you doesn't mean you pick on me. I can kick..." But Katie never finished because someone had covered her mouth. That same person apologized for her. The boy that Katie was yelling at walked away. Katie turned around to find that it was Freddy who had covered her mouth. "Are you trying to get yourself jumped?" He questions. "No I'm just angry." She said.

"About what?"

"Don't want to talk about it."

After that Katie walked away. The rest of the day was just a blur. After school was practice. The band was about half way through practice when there was a knock on the door. Zack opened the door. "Katie" he said. "I'm offended," said the person. "I'm Katie's sister Kayla."(People say that Katie and Kayla look alike.). Then Kayla looked at Katie. "Come on we're going to be late" "Sorry guys I'll explain later." Katie said and then the two girls left.

Now this routine had been going on for about a week. "OK Katie time to explain." Said Summer. "Ok but Summer you can't tell any one or I'll die of embarrassment." Said Katie.

"Ok I won't."

"Well Summer I have dance classes and compactions."

"I thought you hated dance."

"I do but if I don't do this I won't be able to be in the band anymore."

"Ok" Katie said " Now that you know will you over for me?"

"OK but only if it doesn't get me in trouble." said Summer

"Hey Katie" someone shouted from behind the two girls.

It was Freddy. He walked up to the two girls. "Um Katie can I talk to you alone?" he asked. "Yeah sure" she said. They started to walk around the bloke. "So what do you want to talk about?" Katie asked.

"Well you know how we have that gig on Saturday?"

"Yeah?"

"Well I was wondering if you would like to.....to......"

"To what?"

"Would you like to go to a movie afterwards with me?"

"Depends"

"Depends on what?"

"Depends on what we see."

"Well what would you like to see?"

"Well the Series of Unfortunate Events is supposed to be good."

"Ok then it's a date "said Freddy and then gave Katie a kiss on the cheek. "Ok" she said, "Then it's a date. Then Freddy walked her home and then he went home. Katie was so excited because she has had a crush on Freddy since the 3rd grade. She went inside and started to write more on her song.

(a/n: Looks like Katie is not in the shadow anymore what will happen their data I wonder. I know but not going to tell )
