Chapter 1
Galileo, Scarramouche, Olivia and Storm sat by the large fireplace talking about the joint nightmare the twins had shared. For a while, there was silence. Then Scarra turned to Olivia.
"Take care of her. Please."
"I will, I promise, Mercury is my niece, my family, how could I not? But, help Storm, with Christina, she can be a handful." She let out a nervous laugh.
"We will, I promise."
"Thanks. So I guess this is our last night all together, for a while at least, well, besides the concert tommorrow."
"Yeah. I guess it is." He laughed nervously. They sat in silence again, only the four knowing that the next day would bring the end of their children's freedom, and happiness, as GlobalSoft regained control of Planet Mall.
When the kids woke Christina and Mercury sprinted through the Heartbreak to find their parents. Their dreaming abilities were similar to Olivia's, but they were not as frequent. Luckily, they hadn't seen what their parents had, but they czme in the room with both their hairbrushes. The four adults were asleep, so the kids gently woke them. They all silently agreed not to tell anyone.
Unfortunatly the time they wanted to spend with the kids wasn't what they wanted due to the runthrough and setup for the farewell concert. So Storm came up with a killer idea. She spoke to Olivia, Scarra and Gazza.
"Guys, I think we should let the kids perform. Otherwise, they may never get the chance. I mean we don't know how long this age of GaGa will last. The last one lasted around three hundred years. I think they should have their chance. What d'ya say?" She looked around her bandmates hopefully.
"Yeah."
"Definatly, Gaz?"
Gaz thought about it really hard. "Yeah, they should have their chance. Their chance at the dream." We spread the decision around the band. As most of the kids parents were in the band they all agreed. Even AC let Jett take part. She had gotten over the depression and fears of letting Jett grow. And Jett was just as free as the others.
They searched through the less suggestive songs for the kids to choose from. Once they had their list, they went to the kids.
"OK, guys, we think it's only fair that you guys perform with us tonight. You can chose your own songs and everything. What d'ya think?" Galileo asked the kids. They din't respond so he tried again. "So I guess nobody wants to perform then?" Suddenly he was hit by a wave of cries.
"I wanna perform" "Can I do it?" "Really daddy?" "Do we all get to perform?" And so on. Gaz calmed them down and gave them the list of songs they could choose from. Then he left them to it. Now they just had to learn them before tonight.
