Hi people! Here's the next chapter I hope you all enjoy! This one is a memory chapter. It's going to be about (Drumroll please)...Band Camp! Yep, I've done the impossible and the unthinkable. Actually, it's not impossible anymore considering I just did it. Anyway I sent Chase to Band Camp! What have I done? Watch the world be destroyed in a few minutes. Oh and I'm not counted the V day chapter as anything. So just pretend it never happened. Anyway, yep, Chase is off to band camp. Mainly to see Elektra but it gets pretty funny. Enjoy!
-------------------------------------
"Wait...so, where is she again?"
"She's at band camp."
"Band camp?"
"Yes, already! Geez! When are you going to understand that!"
"Sorry, I just never thought she'd go to band camp...why is she there again?"
"Uhh...she's there with Korrina and Shierra to learn how to play instruments! Korrina's learning to play the flute and so is Shierra. Elektra's learning how to play the pipe, violin, and flute. And possibly harp. Mainly pipe. Ok?"
"I get it. When is she coming back?"
"A few weeks."
"Ok then."
"Are you alright now?"
"Yeah. I'm fine. Now, I just have to go to band camp."
"I wouldn't if I were you. Besides, she's going to be busy with classes and things."
"What kind of things?"
"I don't know. I mean, she is there with her friends, and Victor is there too."
"Why is he there?"
"He's playing the trumpet. Besides, you know."
"Know what?"
"He likes Elektra, duh. He's only had the biggest crush on her since he first saw her. That's basically the only thing he talks about."
Chase stared blankly at him. He couldn't believe it. "When was the first time he saw her?"
"Uh, let's see. She started dueling when she was 10. She got into the high class at 12. So about when she was 13."
"When you say likes her, what do you mean?"
"Let's see, He went to band camp with her, he never stops talking about her, oh and he plans to spend some 'quality time' with her, alone tonight after some sort of a performance since he's playing the lead in the thing."
"WHAT? I'm definately going there."
"What ever you say. Just don't get in Victor's way. He'll really be mad."
Chase stormed off. "Oh, I'll give him something to be mad about."
--------------------------------------
Elektra was at band camp teaching some of the younger kids to play the flute. They needed three teachers to handle the group so Korrina, Shierra, and Elektra were sitting on a huge fallen tree, showing the younger kids how to correctly hold, and play the flute. All the kids were seated on either tree stumps, or logs, following the instructions given by the three teachers.
Korrina: "Ok everyone, it's almost lunch time."
Shierra: "Yeah, you should all be heading to your cabins for a head count, then you'll go to the lunch hall."
Elektra: "You all did very well, we'll see you for another practice session tomorrow."
The kids all left and headed to their cabins. Korrina and Shierra went to the cabins to check for a head count. Elektra was putting the flute away when two hands gripped her shoulders from behind.
"Oh, Victor it's you."
"I didn't mean to scare you Lec."
"You didn't really scare me that much. I just didn't expect it to be you."
"So, you excited about the performance later?"
"Yeah, it should be fun. And congratson playing the lead."
"Oh, it's nothing. But, you're pretty good at playing the flute."
"Oh, it's no big deal. It's just something I do."
"You're pretty good at it. You're good at dueling too. Even though you're the only girl."
"Sure. You're pretty good too."
"Thanks. So, um. Do you want to sit with me at lunch?"
"I was planning on sitting with Shierra and Korrina but, you could join us then."
"Alright. So you want to get going?"
"Yeah, we better before someone starts looking for us." She put her case in her backpack and headed to lunch with Victor.
Chase was hiding in the bushes watching them. He was pretty angry since Victor took her hand and was holding it as they walked away. He moved out of the shadows and followed them to the lunch hall.
--------------------------------------
Korrina and Shierra were sitting on one side of a long table and Victor and Elektra were on the other side.
Korrina: "So, are you guys excited about the performance later?"
Shierra: "Yeah, I mean after all Victor, you're the star."
Victor: "It's no big deal. But, yeah, I'm excited about it."
Elektra: "Yeah, you'll definately make the crowd happy."
Victor: "I hope so." They were both looking at eachother.
Korrina: "Hey Shierra, wanna go over to the buffet table with me?"
Shierra: "No not really. OW!" Korrina elbowed her. "Actually yeah, maybe they have more strawberries." They both left.
Chase was watching them from not too far away. He was getting mad when a food cart stopped by. He grabbed some cake and threw it at Victor. Unfortunately it hit a kid that just moved in the way. "HEY! Who threw that?" A kid was laughing at a nearby table. The guy that got hit by the cake threw some potatoes at him. "FOOD FIGHT!" Everyone stood up and started throwing food at eachother. One group of kids got a leaf blower and attached it to a tuba and put it in reverse, sending mustard everywhere. Victor and Elektra managed to escape most of it and ran outside. They were covered in food.
Victor: "Wow. That was a close one."
Elektra: "Yeah."
Victor: "Hold on, you've got some frosting on your face." He wiped off some frosting that was on her cheek with his hand.
"I must look like a mess."
"Yeah, but so do I."
"I have to get back in there. Gotta make sure my food fighters are all right."
"Are you sure you don't need back up after such a huge fight?"
"I'm sure. Besides, a gentleman never lets a lady go in dangers way. Even if it is just lunch. And soda bombs probably."
"Well, if you're sure. I better clean up."
"I'll see you later, at the performance." He kissed her on her forehead and went back inside.
She went back to her cabin to take a shower before the big performance.
Chase was as mad as ever. He kicked a tree and a pinecone hit his head.
------------------------------------------
It was 10 minutes before the show. Chase was watching Elektra grab her pipe and get ready for the performance.
Chase walked around the corner of a wall and found a decently big rock. He threw it up in the air and caught it a few times. "I should probably just give up and go back." He threw the rock in the distance and heard an OW! Followed by a loud thump. He ran over to where the noise came from and found his rock and Victor on the ground. "Uh oh." He ran back to where everyone was getting ready for the performance. It was too late to tell someone since everyone was on stage.
"Hey you!" Came a voice from behind him.
"Where have you been? We've been looking everywhere for you!"
"Wha?"
Two men gave him a trumpet and lead him to the stage. "But I don't know how to play the trumpet!"
"It's ok to be nervous kid, but the best way to get rid of your nerves is to face it." They threw him on stage.
He looked around to see a whole bunch of people in the seats. The performance was being held outside. He looked behind him and saw a bunch of confused faces including Elektra's. She was signaling 'What are you doing here?'
He signaled back 'what should I do?'
She signaled back 'play the stupid thing.'
He turned back to the audience and started playing it. Horribly I might add. The crowd came to hear what sounded like the playing of a thousand angels. Instead they got what sounded like a thousand normal trumpets...being played by monkeys. He stopped after awhile and ran off the stage into blackness.
He woke up to a bunch of people cheering and clapping. There was a bunch of "Magnificent, No one could do better, and He's so talented!" Everyone was cheering for him. He took a bow and raised his trumpet in the air. Elektra ran over to him.
"Wow! That was the best played! You were totally awsome!" She kissed him. "I can't belive how well you played that trumpet Chase!...Chase...Chase...Chase? Are you alright? Chase, wake up." He opened his eyes. Elektra was looking down at him. A worried expression on her face.
"Where am I? What am I doing here? Why do I smell like fish?"
Elektra: "Let's see, you ran off the stage, tripped over a pinecone, rolled down a hill, landed in a river, was unconsious, a bear almost mis took you for a giant fish, a girl was fishing and hooked you and reeled you onto shore, a bunch of kids were poking you with a stick to see if you were alive or dead, and the girl that was fishing smacked you in the face with a fish a couple of times to see if you would wake up."
He sat up and rubbed his head. "That would explain why I'm in so much pain."
She hugged him tightly. "Don't ever do something like that again! You scared me. We thought you were dead for awhile."
"I'm sorry. Trust me, I won't do that again." She let go and looked at him.
"I can't believe you went on stage to save the show."
"What?"
"We found Victor unconsious. We figured he got hit in the head with a rock by an angry squirrel. I can't believe you went to save the show. You went through all that."
"Yeah...that's what I did."
"Come on, let's go to the cabin. You need to get some rest." They stood up and walked along the path to the cabin. The sun was beginning to set as they walked alongside eachother. Time to set the mood music with PCD, Stick Wit U.

They walked together to the cabin and sat down and watched the rest of the sunset. The sky turned a deep blue with stars shooting across the night sky.
"You can't buy sights like this."
"No, you can't." He put his hand on top of hers.
"What made you come here?"
"What? I can't come to enjoy the sites, the pinecones, and fish?"
"No, really. What made you come out here?"
"I...well, I wanted to see you. I kinda missed you."
"You did?" She looked at him.
"Well yeah, I mean who else is gonna help me defeat a bunch of demons?" He looked at her. She had such kind eyes.
A cold wind blew across the area. Elektra shivered a bit.
Chase pushed some hair out of her face and touched her cheek. It was cold. "Maybe we should go inside."
"Yeah. It's getting kind of late."They both stood up and walked inside the cabin. They both sat on the edge of the couch which was pulled out into a bed. Eventually they fell asleep. Chase had his arm wrapped around her as they slept sideways. They would never forget what happened at band camp. But like they say, What happens at band camp, stays at band camp.
