"Attention class. Reminder that Mrs. Fetchif is retiring. You are more than welcome to pay a tribute to her, but it is your choice if you choose to or not." The principal said for the school to hear. Ken and Yolei were walking by in the halls when they heard that announcement. They actually felt sad about this.
"I'm going to miss Mrs. Fetchif. She was a great teacher." Yolei said.
"Same here." Ken said. "I think that it's great that some students are making. Look, there's Kari." Both of them looked ahead and saw Kari with a video camera and she was filming T.K.
"Hi, Mrs. Fetchif. I just wanted to say goodbye and best of luck to you." T.K. said. Kari stopped filming and she liked what she got.
"Nice work, T.K." Kari said.
"Hey, guys." Yolei said as she and Ken came over. "Kari, are you making a small film for Mrs. Fetchif?"
"Yeah. I'm going around and asking some students if they have any words they like to say to Mrs. Fetchif for her retirement." Kari said. "Most of them are nice, but others aren't so much. Exhibit A." She rewind the video camera to show a group of guys together.
"Bye, Mrs. Fetch-ing!" All the boys said and all of them started barking like dogs.
"I get Mrs. Fetching may have looked great when she was younger, but that really isn't an appropriate thing to say." Kari said. "Anyway, T.K. is helping me with the video. You two want in?"
"Yeah. Just let us know if there's anything we can do." Ken said.
"Just go and think of what you like to say to Mrs. Fetchif. I'll give you some time since I promised other students I filmed them next." Kari said.
"Sure." Ken said as the both of them just walked away.
"Can you believe some guys?" Yolei said. "They can act like real pigs or something. Sometimes they just act real creepy when they just stare at girls with a vivid look on their face."
"You mean like that?" Ken said. They saw Davis leaning against the wall and giving off that very same look at Kari. Luckily, Kari hasn't noticed yet. Davis just stared at her until she left with T.K. Yolei clapped her hands near Davis' ears and snapped him out of it.
"Hey!" Davis said. "What was that for?"
"You were being weird. You were staring at Kari again." Yolei said. "Honestly, Davis, you sing great songs in front of dozens of people, but you're too scared to simply tell Kari you like her. You may not have much of a chance, but you'll have closure if you at least tell her."
"Yolei's got a point. You can do it, Davis." Ken said. "We all know you're worried that she and T.K. will be a thing, but you can still beat him to the punch. Just go over and tell Kari you like her."
"You're right. I can do this. I can do this!" Davis said as he marched after Kari to tell her just that. However, he chickened out and went the other way with his friends feeling sorry for him. Davis just kept on walking until he accidently bumped into someone with their stuff falling and that was Ashely. "Sorry, Ashely."
"That's okay." Ashely said as they gathered her stuff together. "You okay, Davis? You look like there's something bothering you."
"It's nothing." Davis said as he didn't really want to talk about it. Ever since Davis saw that Ashely wasn't the person he thought she was, things seemed to have been going fine between them.
"Actually, I'm glad you bumped into me. I was hoping to talk to you." Ashely said.
"Maybe some other time. I'm not much in a mood for talking." Davis said as he walked off. Ashely could see something was wrong with him and wasn't quite sure what she could do to help him.

The Penthouse
Jesse was working on another song Davis. While he was doing that, Davis and Miley were talking about his girl problems.
"How can I sing some of the best songs around and not tell the girl that I'm crazy about that I'm crazy about her?" Davis said. "Most girls would kill for the chance to go out with Jason Burner. So why is it I can't go out with the girl I want to go out with?"
"Tell me about it. Back when I was Hannah, I had similar problems like that myself." Miley said. "Ken and Yolei are right. You should just go for it. Don't think about it, just go for it."
"Easy for you to say. You're married." Davis said. Both of them heard a knock on the door and Miley went up to see who it was. She opened it up and saw it was Yolei with a camera.
"Hey, Yolei." Miley said.
"Hi. I don't mean to bother you. I just need Davis for something." Yolei said as she went on in. "I'm helping out Kari with a little project she's working on for a teacher that's retiring. Davis how about you say something?"
"Okay. Bye." Davis said and that was it.
"Maybe with a little more feeling." Yolei said as she wasn't satisfied with it.
"I'm sorry, Yolei, but I don't even want to think about anything now." Davis said. "This whole thing with Kari has got me circling."
"Here." Yolei said as she handed him the camera. "When you think of something, just film yourself. I bet Kari would like it if you said something nice." Yolei left him with the camera and went to talk to Jesse.
"Davis, you just need to bring out that courage that you always have." Miley said.
"You're right. I'm sick of all the messing around." Davis said. "I have to work up the nerve and say to Kari that I'm hopelessly and madly in love with her." What Davis didn't know was that the camera was still filming when he said that. Yolei's phone went off and saw she needed to get going.
"Sorry, Davis. I need to go, but I'll come back another time." Yolei said as took the camera and left and they weren't aware of what was on it.
…..
Later
Later that day, Davis was just chilling at home. He heard a knock on the door and went over to it. He opened the door and was surprised to see it was Ashely.
"Ashely?! What are you doing here?" Davis said.
"I came here to give you your notebook. You dropped it when you bumped into me earlier." Ashely said as she handed him one.
"That's not mine." Davis said as he thought that was weird of her.
"I know. I just needed an excuse to come see you." Ashely said. That seemed to have caught Davis' attention. "Is it okay if I come inside?"
"Sure." Davis said as he allowed her to come in. That was also when Miley came in the room.
"Who's at the door, Davis?" Miley said.
"Oh my gosh! You're Miley Stewart! My name is Ashely Allson."
"You're the Ashely Davis told me about?" Miley said.
"I guess so. I love your work. You were like my idol when I was a kid." Ashely said.
"I already like her." Miley said in like an instant.
"Miley, out." Davis said. Miley got the message and left the two of them alone. "So how come you wanted to come over?"
"There was actually something I wanted to talk to you about." Ashely said.
"What's up?" Davis said. Ashely was about to say it, but that was when Yolei came back and ran through the door with her a little frantic. "Yolei? What's up? Is something wrong?"
"Sort of." Yolei said. She saw Ashely was here and knew Davis wouldn't want her to hear this. So she pulled him away to talk. "I was looking over the videos on the camera I had and there was a video of you saying that you loved Kari."
"What?!" Davis said with a raised voice for Ashely to hear. "How could you film that?!"
"I didn't. You did when you were holding the camera, idiot." Yolei said. "I was going to delete it, but I had to give the camera back as well. So a teacher took it before I had the chance."
"Oh man." Davis said as he could only imagine all the embarrassment he's going to get from this.
"What's going on?" Ashely asked.
"Sort of. There's actually a recording of me with something that should not be seen mixed in with videos for Mrs. Fetchif's retirement." Davis said.
"Well, Kari is in charge of that project. Can't you just ask her tomorrow if you could get it back and delete it?" Ashely said.
"Of course!" Davis said. "Kari will understand! As long as she doesn't see it by then, everything will be okay."
"Are you sure?" Yolei said for she saw this was a big chance for Davis.
"Yes!" Davis said.
…
The Next Day
Davis got to school as fast as he could. First time he wanted to get to school really soon. Once he got there, he searched around for Kari and he soon spotted her talking to a couple others.
"There she is." Ken said.
"Davis, are you sure you want to do this? This might be your chance to let Kari know how you feel." Yolei said.
"Not like this and this will be your fault." Davis said. "You know I couldn't be trusted with a camera without looking like a doof. I'm going." Davis went right over to talk to Kari. "Hey, Kari. I need to ask you something."
"One minute, Davis." Kari said and turned back to the others. "Guys, I'm sorry. If I let you redo your videos, I have to let everyone redo their videos and there's no time. I'm sorry, but no one can get them back." They were bummed out about that and left. "Sorry about that, Davis. What do you need?"
"Never mind." Davis said as he saw she really wasn't going to give it back and just walked away and back to the others with him glaring at Yolei. "You're dead to me." Davis left them and he felt like he was going to be a real laughing stock. Davis took a seat against the wall and didn't know how he was going to get out of this one.
"Hey, Davis." Davis looked up and saw Ashely came back.
"Hey, Ashely." Davis said.
"I'm guessing it didn't work out." Ashely said as she sat next to him.
"I don't think she's seen it yet, but she's not going to give it back." Davis said. "I don't know what I'm going to do now. Maybe be prepared for humiliation." Ashely could see Davis was upset and didn't really like this.
"You know, I heard Kari is going to have to stay after school to work on those videos." Ashely said. "I bet I can pull a few strings to help you get back in and get that camera before Kari sees it." Davis was a little impressed that Ashely would do that.
"You would really do that?" Davis said.
"Yeah. This seems like a big deal to you. So if you want that video back, meet back here at six and let me know if there are others coming." Ashely said as she got back up and left. Davis was amazed that Ashely was actually helping him like this.
….
Later
Later that day, Davis called Ken for a little help and went spy mode. They dressed in black and acted all sneaky. Davis went on ahead and tried his best to imitate spy moves.
"What are you doing?" Ken said as all he did was walk. "We just have to quietly walk."
"Don't take all the fun out of this." Davis said.
"Davis is right." Ashely said as she stepped in. "Also, this is how you do spy moves." Ashely did a few backwards flips and did the split on the floor. She launched herself off and pressed herself against the wall.
"Wow!" Both of them said as they were amazed by her moves.
"Come on." Ashely said. Both of them moved over to a classroom and looked inside, but Kari was in there working on the videos.
"Great. She's in there. Now what?" Davis said.
"Which camera is the one with your video?" Ashely asked.
"Yolei said she took camera number three." Davis said.
"Okay. Davis and I will go in. Ken, keep watch." Ashely said. "I'll keep Kari distracted while you get in there, Davis, and delete your video."
"She is on a roll." Ken said. Both the boys liked how she was going. Ashely was able to get the janitor's cart and came in the room.
"Hey, Kari." Ashely said.
"Hi, Ashely. What are you doing here?" Kari said.
"Just a little community service….by choice." Ashely said. "Just cleaning around the school." Kari believed that and went with it. Ashely placed herself so Kari couldn't see Davis as he came in. "So what are you working on?"
"Just a little video for Mrs. Fetchif's retirement." Kari said. "She was a great teacher. I just wish some of them were nicer or more mature about it."
"Some people just don't think before they can act. So what was Mrs. Fetchif like? I didn't know her that well." Ashely said. As the two of them were talking, Davis was able to grab the camera with his video on it. Davis searched through it and he found his video and was able to get that part of it deleted. Davis placed it down and signaled for Ashely that they were good and got the heck out of there.
"Well, I better get going." Ashely said as she pushed the cart.
"Oh. Be sure to wash your hands. That looks like the cart that had a septic tanks explode on it." Kari said and Ashely felt disgusted, but it was mission accomplished.
…
The Next Day
Davis, Ken, and Yolei looked n Kari's direction at a local hangout. They told Yolei about what happened and everything went well.
"And that was it. Thanks to Ashely, we got the video deleted." Davis said as he felt good about it.
"I'm not sure, Davis. I still think you made a mistake." Yolei said. "That could have been your chance to finally let Kari know how you feel about her and you took it away. Are you ever going to tell her?" Davis wasn't really sure how to answer that.
"I'm kind of with Yolei on this." Ken said. "Davis, you're never going to know how Kari feels about you if you keep avoiding it. If she feels the same, she should have known."
"Maybe you guys are right." Davis said and believed it was now or never. Davis went up ot Kari as she got her order of food. "Hey, Kari."
"Hi, Davis." Kari said.
"Listen. There's something I've been wanting to tell you." Davis said as he was ready to change everything, but someone already did as T.K. came over and wrapped his arm around Kari.
"Hey, guys." T.K. said.
"What's going on?" Davis said.
"T.K. actually asked me out." Kari said and Davis couldn't believe it.
"We had a lot of fun making that video, I decided to just go for it." T.K. said and Davis upset that he couldn't.
"Davis, was there something you wanted to say?" Kari said.
"Not important anymore." Davis said and just walked away. All the chances and he blew each one of them. Now it's too late.

The Penthouse
Davis was upset about the whole thing. He didn't know what he was going to do now. Jesse and Miley saw he was upset and decided to help him out.
"I'm sorry, Davis. I guess you should have left the video." Miley said.
"Hey. It might not even work. I say you still have a chance." Jesse said.
"I did, but I couldn't do it. I was just too afraid." Davis said. "I thought I could do it, but I just didn't have the strength." Both of them felt sorry. They knew he could, but couldn't.
"Look. You were afraid and that's natural." Jesse said. "You just need to change that fear and doubt into power. You have the power to do anything, Davis. You just need to change that negative stuff into power." Miley agreed and that gave Jesse an idea. He grabbed his guitar and started playing music that Davis liked.
…..
Jason Burner
When Jason Burner was giving off another performance, he went with the new song Jesse made. This new song can be a real motivator to see a person can win if they want to. They just need a little extra power.
Oh yeah

We got the strength within
We always fight to win
Change into power
We got the power
Together you and me will win the victory
When I need someone to guide me
To stand right beside me

The School
After Jason's performance, Davis was feeling a little better about that whole thing with Kari. Davis was on his way through until he spotted Ashely.
"Hi, Davis." Ashely said.
"Hey." Davis said. "Ashely, I didn't get the chance to say thanks for helping me with that video, but why did you do it? You didn't even know what was on it."
"You seemed upset and it seemed important to you." Ashely said. "I was glad I could help." Davis felt flatter he did it for that. "As well my own reasons." She said as she walked by. Davis was confused. He looked over at her, but she winked at him and smiled as she kept going. Davis may have lost his girl, but there might be something with another girl. There are some changes happening.
