I have to admit, it might have been easier writing this story before I saw the "SERIES FINALE", but once again I don't own RFR. So, I can do anything I want, except bring it back...Though God knows, Rally tried... I'm trying not to be "bound" by what I knew did happen... I'm just gonna keep up with my "own" personal take on it... Though, I was pretty close.

I'm gonna keep trucking on... Though I'm always open for suggestion and feedback.


The next day at RFR 4:OO, and two hours countdown til the Sadie-Hawkins/ Semi Formal Dance...

QM asks, "When is it okay to lie to someone, so you don't hurt them?"

Pronto responds, "When you don't get caught... in your own lie."

Lily looks guilty as those words keep their last encounter fresh in her mind,

Shady scolds, "Oh, that's real nice Pronto. And what if someone doesn't want to have to face the truth?"

He looks straight in her eyes and says, "Well, that's their fault and their loss, isn't it?"

Question Mark inserts, "While these two duke it out, why don't we cut to a song which won't send you rioting in the streets. It might actually get you dancing in them."

They take their headphones off...

Robbie yells, "What is it with you two... Get a Grip!"

Lily says, "Well, he started it."

Ray defends himself by saying, "AND SHE's in denial, and it AIN'T just a river in Egypt."

Lily goes on the attack, "Wow, Ray, I'm surprised you know where Egypt is..."

Ray starts, "Why you little..."

"CUT IT OUT GUYS! YOU ARE ACTING LIKE CHILDREN, I thought we outgrew this...

RFR is gonna suffer because of all this hostility..." Robbie exclaims.

Travis who had been silent til now, speaks up, "Well, guys speaking of denial...

I didn't want to admit, that I'm packing up and moving back to Hong Kong."

All three look at him in the booth, "WHAT?"

Ray is the first to speak up, "SWAMI STRONG, what are you talking about?"

"That call, the other day... it wasn't Bridget, it was my Dad and he got a position back at the Hong Kong embassy.."

Lily says, "Oh no, Trav..."

Robbie adds, "It just can't be true."

Travis asserts, "Well, it is guys. I guess we'll have to deal. I move all the time, but this is

the only place I've regretted leaving..."

Lily asks, "What about Parker, T-man?"

"Well, Parks already knows Lil.. and she's been amazing... I just didn't wanna have to

tell you guys this."

Ray explains, "Well, we don't exactly get a kick out of hearing it."

Robbie brings up, "Yeah, and what is this gonna mean for RFR?"

Lily and Ray yell, "ROBBIE...not now!"

Travis calms them down, "No guys, he's right ... I've wondered too... let's pick up our headphones,

the music break is over."

Smog starts... "Well, change is an ever-present part of life... We're starting torealize this right here on RFR, and it doesn't have to be a bad thing. Sad, maybe yes but only if you don't make the best of it. RFR was a tool to find our 'voice,' now that we have, maybe it's time to let go of what's holding us back...Maybe it's time to move on, even if you don't want to. I've come to learn in my time here, that the only decisions you regret, are the chances you didn't take to follow your heart..."

Lily looks down as her tears start to fall, and Ray is silent for once.

Question Mark continues, "Smog is right, as usual. So, all you fans out there...

tune in later on, at 12:00 to 88.1, for RFR's.. Final Broadcast. We're signing off.."
