"Fisk I'm sorry I didn't get your ice cream, but you don't have to give me the quite treatment."Zak said to his gorilla cat brother.

"Hum!" replied brothers were walking through the woods that hid the family's air ship. The woods were west of the small town Zak and Fisk had been exploring.

"But, guess what, "said Zak trying to change the mood, "I'm now part of the West Wood middle school marching band!" Fisk only laughed. The rest of the night went by like any other night, until Zak told his parents about what happened in the ice cream store.

"Zak,"his mother began, "Why on earth would you tell those girls you could play an insterment, let alone March."

"Your mother's right," Doc chimed in" what are you going to do tomorrow when you have to play?"

"Well…… I figured I could learn how to play off the internet, and then tomorrow tell them I haven't played in a while so I don't sound as good as I normally doo." Zak waited for an answer but all he got was silent.

"Well," Drew began, "how long does this whole thing last?"

"About a week." Replied Zak.

"Zak, you know it's risky for us to stay in one place to long." His father argued.

"Besides mini man,'' Doyle said from the back of the room "Band is for geeks and dorks."

"You know I was in the band when I was in school." said Doc a bit annoyed.

"Cased closed." Said Doyle.

"Look I know its risky staying here for too long," said Zak," But you guys are always saying I should be around kids my age more often."Doc and Drew thought about it for a while, and finally came up with an answer.

"I guess we could stay for a few—"drew was cut off when Zak yelled.

"Thanks! Ya'll rock!"Zak was sure to use the new southern word He had learned from L.B.

Next morning L.B's house 6:50 am.

Laurie Bell was half asleep and barely a wake, untile she saw the time.

"Crap!"She yelled as flung off her covers and tried to run to her dresser but tripped over someone in the floor.

"What the-!" yelled Alice, who had tripped L.B. Laurie Bell forgot her friend were sleeping over.

"Retards." Xandra mumbled into her pillow.

"Sorry! I'm running late!" explained L.B who was running around the room trying to get ready.

"Didn't you set your alarm?" asked Alice.

"Yah, but it didn't go off."

"I told not to get an alarm clock from Wal-Mart. But, no you had a cupon."Said Alice sarcastically.

"I turned it off.'' Said Xandra.

"Why did you do that!?" said L.B while putting her contacts in.

"It woke me up."

"That's kind of the point, Minty."Said Alice.

''Well, why does she have to be up so early?''

"I'm meeting Zak up at the school to get a rental trumpet."

"What time are you supposed to be there?" said Alice.

"Ten minutes ago!!"Said L.B, as she ran out her bed room door and started toward her front door.

"Waite!" called Minty."Are you just going to leave us here!?"L.b popped her head in to the door way and said." Good point, Get out of my house."

"Come on Minty we can wait at the ice cream shop till band camp starts." Said Alice.

West wood middle school 7:24 am

The west wood middle school was a one story, faded brick building with a dobbed door on each wall. Behind the school was a large empty filed that separated the school from the foot ball knew all this because he had walked around the campus seven times while waiting for L.B. He thought she wasn't going to show but he soon saw her running down the street toward the school.

"Sorry I'm late!" said L.B "Come with me. I'll show you were to get your instrument and uniform. Because starting today you are in the marching band!"
