Mercedes led Alex to the back corner of the band room. She sat down there and pulled out her lunch from a backpack that was there.
"Like the place? This is where my little group comes," she can I get my lunch?" Alex said, uncomfortably.
"Oh...sure!" Mercedes said with a grin.
When Alex came back with her lunch, more people were there. A few of them were Kasey, Potter, Kiran and Mr. Clark. She didn't know the other three. Alex sat down by Mercedes and Kasey.
"Alex, this is Lauren a clarinet player, Jason a trombone player, and Sara a trumpet player," Mercedes said, pointing to each.
Lauren was a small girl with black hair that looked blue in the light and pale blue eyes. She had the look of one who would play the clarinet. Jason seemed tall and had red hair and brown eyes. Sara was in between both. She looked just like Lauren but she was taller. Sara and Lauren were twins. Alex nodded in hello as she pulled out her lunch.
"Well how about we talk about the session Friday?" Kasey said, sounding excited.
"Can't wait," Lauren and Sara said at the same time.
Everyone agreed, except Alex, who knew barely nothing about it.
"All of you play Dungeons and Dragons?" Alex asked.
"Yeah. Just call it D&D. Mr. Clark is the Dungeon Master, or DM. I play a fighter. Kasey plays a thief, Jason and Lauren play magic users, Sara plays a bard, Potter plays another fighter andKiran plays a ranger," Mercedes said. Alex nodded, not understanding most of it.
"Well when you come bring your instruments. We need to practice. That sounded bad," Mr. Clark said and everyone groaned.
"Do we have to? We'll get better by...." Kasey started to complain but Mr. Clark cut him off.
"Yes you have to or you'll do push ups next Monday," he said and everyone in the group groaned again.
"Will you come to the session? Then you can sleep at the house. D&D is a mini band sleepover," Mercedes said to Alex.
"Uh...Sure...I'll come I guess," she said, quietly.
"Great!" Mercedes said with a grin.
"Can't wait 'till band camp is over! Then comes football games! Shoving people in cases and lockers, initiation, band bus and more!" Kasey spurted out.
"Yeah. Wait 'till your intiation," Jason said to Alex. She paled slightly.
"Who will do this to me?" she asked.
"The low brass. Mostly the other tubas. It makes you one of us," Mercedes said, her grin widening.
"Uh...great," she said sarcastically. She finished her lunch and stood up. "Well better get back to my seat," she said, hurrying off.
Alex sighed. "What a year this will be," she muttered and pulled up her tuba.

A/N: Wouldn't let me do a line...so I made one of my own...lol. Yay! I get points for adding stuff about D&D! hehehe...I'm glad you like it. Welllooks around slyly....I play D&D. I just had to put something in here about it because sadly, my band doesn't not all like it. Only 3 of us that I know of do, which is sad. Well anyway, R&R!
