Walking into Coda Cabin, I was relieved to not note that Wren had finished unpacking her stuff, and everything was neat in the cabin itself with the exception of my half un-packed luggage, and a folded piece of paper laying upon the table top.
Hurriedly, I finished unpacking and folding my clothing began placing it neatly inside of the dresser at the foot of my bed, not sure if the inspectors would be checking the dressers for neatness or not, but wanting to be prepared for the possibility. Moving my bags under my bunk, I glanced around the cabin. It was as neat as I could make it without having several more hours at my disposal. Grabbing my water bottle, I glanced at Wren's clock. Seeing that I still had thirty minutes left before I had to be down on the field, I walked over to the table,
The folded piece of paper had my name written upon it in Wren's familiar cursive. Opening it up, I saw that a key had been taped inside of it, along with another note from Wren.
Moth –
There have been issues in the past with break ins, Riktor saw to it that a lock was installed for us. Your key is attached, I already have my copy. Do NOT lose it! I'll see you after our separate blocks; you'll have to tell me all about sectionals.
- Wren
Somewhat confused, I pulled the key off of Wren's note, and attached it to my keychain. Placing both my keys and Wren's letter into my pocket, I looked around the cabin. Satisfied that it was as neat as it was going to be, I picked up my water bottle off of the table and headed out, hoping that I would see someone else that I knew who could explain what Wren meant.
Pausing to lock the door behind me, I left Coda Cabin and headed back down towards the main camp.
Author's Notes:
Sorry about the length of this chapter! There was no other good place to end for a long time! I'll do my best to have more chapter's up soon!
Individual Notes:
KatMarFin: Did you love or hate being the only one? It seems to vary by the person I talk to; me, I loved it. I wish you the best of luck going back to the clarinet! I tried it at one point, but wasn't able to, I discovered that, after playing the bass, I hated the clarinet…. looks sad 'Princess Daisy'? I love it! One of the baritones at my high school was nicknamed 'Princess Toadstool,' much to his embarrassment of course!
Jinxdncursed: Good luck with Drum Majoring bit! I know what you mean about not being coordinated enough to march and play! It took me forever to get the hang of it! How'd band camp go?
'am': Thanks! Percussionists are cool! (you have to remember to duck sometimes…but hey… lol)
HuntSeat Panhead: FanFiction's irritating sometimes like that. It wouldn't let me sign in at all last week to update but it has no problem with me doing it now! There will be SOME hazing in here…. I'll admit that. We had it in our band, so it's in this one! Gladiator theme would have made for a sweet show! Yes, there's flutes here, haven't had time (or energy) to write them in yet though…..maybe soon.
I never noticed that his name was the same as Tamora Pierce's character….funny really. But no, I actually do know someone named Briar who dyes his hair leaf green, earning him the nickname of 'Moss' (he's actually not in my school though….I added him in for the story…..but he really does play the tuba!) – gryffyn
Elaine Kaelar: We didn't/don't believe in pits either. If the show called for it, we'd have marching mallets, but we only had them my sophomore year, the next two we had 'normal' marching corps (lol!). Sorry…no answers in this chapter…..just another question…..but I'm working towards answering some more of the questions. I promise!
The Pirate Illusionist: I know what you mean, I was SO lost at first, and now I can almost not stop playing it! (I've also gotten addicted to some of the other games by the same company!)
C.B.A.: That's a very good question…..I hope that they don't kick us off! Thanks for the complement!
Aelwyn: I know! I never ate the food at band camp! Always know the phone numbers of the local pizza joints by heart! Congrats to section leader! I hate dentist apointments……
BennuPhoenix: here kitty kitty kitty…..(jk!)
Anubuss: 'ullo!
