CHAPTER 7- GETTING ALLIES
Schellen, Catherine, Erica and Karyn were sitting in lunch when Jessica, Amanda and Christina walked up to them.
"Hey guys," said Christina. "Me and my fellow French horn players were talking about our hate for the trumpets."
"We don't know anything!" said Schellen.
"Relax," said Christina, "we're not trying to get information."
"Ok," said Schellen.
"We want you to be our allies," said Christina.
"Your allies?" asked Erica.
"Yeah, we can beat the trumpets together," said Amanda.
"Hang on a minute," said Karyn, "me and my fellow flute and clarinet players gotta talk."
Karyn, Catherine, Schellen and Erica huddled.
"What if it's a trick?" asked Schellen.
"No, Jessica's my friend and she wouldn't try to kill me," said Catherine.
"It's a good strategy," said Karyn, "because we'll outnumber the trumpets. But what about Jackie? What if she doesn't agree to this?"
"I say we do it," said Erica. "I'm sure Jackie would be more than happy. Oboe players are always loyal."
Karyn turned to Christina, Amanda and Jessica.
"Ok, we'll be your allies," she said.
They shook hands to make it official. Then they began to make strategies.
MEANWHILE.
The trumpet players walked to the "green hall."
"Halt!" said the baritone player guarding the way in.
"We aren't here to free your prisoners. We'd like to speak with all of you," said Jon.
"Ok," said the baritone player, still not really convinced.
The trumpet players walked into the center of the hall so the people guarding the doors and the other end of the hall.
"We, the undersigned members of the trumpet section want you, yes you to be our allies," said one of the trumpet players.
"What's in it for us?" asked a trombone player.
"You can have our prisoners and our lunch money," said another trumpet player.
"Good deal," said another trombone player. "All right we'll be your allies."
Everyone shook hands with each other and the trumpet players left.
ALSO.
At lunch, Erica, Karyn, Catherine, Schellen, Christina, Jessica and Amanda decided that a good strategy was to get more allies so they decided to look for the bassoon and bass clarinet players. They found them in the library training their prisoners.
"Hey guys what's up?" Meghan asked them.
"Do you guys wanna be our allies?" Jessica asked.
"Sure," said Kaitlyn.
"We need all the help we can get. Those saxophones outnumber us by a lot," added Nicole.
"I still think this whole war is violent," said one of the bass clarinet players.
"Me too," said the other bass clarinet player.
"Look at it this way guys," said Meghan, "we got allies now. With our allies, our prisoners and their prisoners we'll be unstoppable!"
AT THE SAME TIME.
Mike ran into the saxophone players.
"Guys!" he said, "I'm so glad you're here."
All the saxophone players kneeled on the ground.
"Hail the saxophone god!" they all said.
"Please stand up," said Mike. "I need allies. Those darn percussionists outnumber me so bad. Will you be my allies?"
"Yes oh mighty one. We the unworthy members of the saxophones of the round table would be more than willing to be your allies," they all said.
"Thanks," said Mike.
Then he remembered one little detail: THE SAXOPHONES WERE FIGHTING AGAINST THE BASSOONS!
"Shoot," he muttered. "I can't fight against my own section. I'll find some way to stop them."
The saxophone players were walking in the hall when they ran into Andy and his friend.
"Wanna be our allies?" Andy asked them.
"Ok," said one of the saxophone players. "But Mike's with us too. That's not a problem is it?"
"As long as he's not a trombone or baritone player," said Andy.
"Andy! I'm shocked you'd suggest such a thing!" said another saxophone player. "Mike is a saxohpone god! And he also plays the bassoon too."
"I thought you were at war with the bassoons," said Andy's friend.
"We, the saxophones of the round table vowed to never injure our god," said another saxophone player.
"Ok, you got yourselves some allies," said Andy.
They shook hands. And now everyone had doubled the size of their army. Future battles will definitely be quite interesting.
