The next day, The Doors got thier packed suitcases and headed to the airport on thier private jet. "So where is this new gig at?" maria asked once the plane took off.

"Well first, we're going to the Palace Hotel at Lake Wasapamani." Robby said to her as he sat next to her and strummed his guitar.

"Wait..." she said exictedly, recognizing the name "I think that's nearby Chicago!"

"Yup." Ray said with a smile

"Oh my god!" she exclaimed happily "I can tell Jake and Elwood to..."

She suddenly paused and came up with a plan

"Wait a sec, I can suprise them with a visit! I can't wait to see the looks on thier faces! Well, I can't wait to see them in general."

"So when do we tell her?" Robby whispered to Ray

"Shh!" he shushed "Not yet."

As thier plane flew over Minnisota, back in Callumet city, The Blues Brothers were driving all around the city, promoting thier gig.

"Tonight only!" Elwood said into the cheap microphone he stole "The Blues Brothers Rythm and Blues Revue...at The Palace Hotel ballroom!"

Jake meanwhile was next to him smoking a cigarette while keeping track of their route on a city map. As jake threw his cigarette butt out of the window, he noticed a pretty red headed woman with a leopard skirt and black blouse walking by the car. He raised an eyebrow in his signature way and called out

"Hey Baby! Why don't you strut your stuff for me, huh?"

"Screw off!"

She tossed her milkshake at his face and ran past the car. Jake sat there frozen as he found some napikns in the glove compartment and wiped his frothy strawberry smelling face and shades. Elwood laughed at his failure.

"Smooth move"

"Shut up, when's the last time you hit on a chick?"

"Well, the last time I did, she became my girlfriend." Elwood retorted

"Who will become your wife in the future"

"How would you know? You left yours at the alter!"

"I have commitment issues!"

"I know you do!"

"I have them because I'm not a loverboy like you!"

"Shut up, I need to finsh the annoucements" Elwood said abruptly, changing the subject "Tonight...the fabulous Blues brothers showband and revue..."

Maria and the Doors landed and took a limo to the Palace Hotel. When they arrived inside, the whole atmosphere was red and the chandelier was glitesning with the lights around it.

"Wow, nice place" Maria said aloud

Ray approached the front desk as the band headed to the snack bar and noticed a mulit colored poster in back of the front desk woman. The poster was almost jamaican themed with a drawn picture of two men, one taller than the other weraing black hats and shades with a caption underneath them saying 'The Blues Brothers: Tonight Only'

Holy shit, that's Maria's ex band!

The woman got him the bands keys and handed them to him "Here you go sir"

"Thank you...Say do you knwo the names of the two men on that poster?" he asked in a whisper

She looked in back of her at the poster and nodded "Oh yes. That's Jake and Elwood Blues."

Oh shit, it IS them!

"I was curious...thank you miss"

Ray gave the keys to his bandmates as they happily snacked on some sandwhiches

"See ya guys, im gonna go unpack" maria called out as she opened her hotel door and stepped in. "How about we all have dinner in an hour?"

"Sounds good" Robby responded

Once he knew her door was shut, Ray adressed to the other guys

"Hey, maria's boyfriends here!"

"What?" John asked

"Yeah! The Blues brothers are gonna perform here! I saw a poster of them beihnd the front desk!"

"Oh shit! You have a good choise in hotels, Ray" Robby retorted

"So should we tell her?" John asked

"Yeah we should!"

"No" Ray said "I think we should keep it a suprise. We can buy tickets and suprise her with their concert."

"Nice!"

The Blues Brothers meanwhile, were on their way to the Palace hotel when Elwood realized that the Bluesmobile was slowing down.

"Shit!" he cursed under his breath

"What?" his older brother asked

"We're out of gas" Elwood said

"Ah shit" Jake cursed as the bluesmobile came into a sudden hault.

"Looks like we're gonna have to find a gas station"

About an hour later, the two brothers found a gas station and pushed thier dodge in it's direction.

"We're gonna be late!" Jake complained "All thanks to your gas guzzling peice of shit car!"

"hey, it was a bargain. I couldn't pass it up!" Elwood argued

Elwood parked the car and started putting gas in it. Jake waited impatiently for the tank to fill up when he saw the band's car pull up.

"You guys need a lift?" Murph called out from the drivers seat

"Jake, you go ahead. I'll stay here. I'll get there as soon as I can after I do a couple of last minute errands" Elwood said to his brother

Jake shrugged and headed towards the ex 'Murph and the Magictones' car

"If you say so"

He got into the car and the car drove off and soon made its way at the palace hotel. when the band arrived, they made thier way to the ballroom to tune and set up thier instruments. Since jake was the only one who didnt have an instrument, he somked a cigareete and relaxed.

"Hey jake" Mr Fabulous called to him "Make yourself useful and get us some dinner won't ya?"

"Who am I, your fucking waiter?"

"No sweat, We'll all get dinner once you guys are done." Murph said, trying to be enthusiastic.

About 15 minutes later, the band was done setting up their stuff and went into the hotels dining area. They ented the fancy red decorated dining room where they saw many round glass tables and a few diners sitting around one, chatting merrily.

"So then I said, 'So what if we're banned for life on that show?"

"At least you guys could say 'Hey we did Ed Sullivan' Not everyone can say that "

Jake stopped in his tracks once he heard that voice. It sounded almost too familiar.

That sounded like...No...it can't be

He turned his head slowly towards the voice and the group of people that voice belonged to. He took off his shades, since he wasn't that insecure about his eyes like his younger brother, and forcibly blinked his eyes, to make sure he was seeing correctly. He opened his eyes and found what it looked like to be, his borther's girlfriend.

"Six Strings?" he asked, to be sure of what he saw.

Maria looked up in response to her nickname, with a comfused look. Jake's eyebrows raised as he noticed it was her. Maria noticed the older Blues Brother and her eyes grew wide in happiness and suprise.

"Jake?...OH MY GOD, JAKE!"

She dashed from her seat and nearly tackled him down as she gave him a huge hug.

"I can't beleive you're here!" he exclaimed as he put his shades back on and she let go of the hug "hey guys!" he called to the band "It's Six Strings!"

"What!"

"Oh my god!"

"Six Strings!"

"GUYS!" she called out happily and hugged each and everyone of them.

All of the band members hugged her back, gave her pats on the back, and ruffled her hair playfully.

"What are you doing here? Why didn't you tell us you were here?" Murph asked

"I wanted to suprise you guys!" she responded with a happy laugh "We're having a gig in Chicago and I was gonna invtie you guys, but I had no clue you guys were here!"

"Yeah, we have a gig tonight here!" Jake said

"Oh my god, this is awesome!"

She looked at the band members, seeking for someone in particular

"Where's Elwood?"

"He went to go do some errands and put gas in the car. He should be back soon...hopefully" Jake added as he looked at his watch "Damn it, its broken!"

"I've missed you guys so much, like you can't even beleive!" she cooed as she hugged jake again

"So did Loverboy! Seeing him all love-sick made me sorta depressed"

"I can't wait to see him again..."

"I think we should suprise him with your appearence" Jake said smugly "It would really make his day."

"how do we do that?"

"Well...we do have a vacant spot in the band..." jake said coyly "A certain someone needs to play guitar..."

"I'M IN!" she inturrupted happily "I can do you guys' opening song!"

"Which song?" Murph asked

"I dont know..."

"Uh...Maria?"

Maria turned around and found the Doors staring at her. She remembered at that moment that The other Doors were there still eating thier dinner.

She blushed embarassingly. "I'm sorry guys!"

"Guys, this is my band, The Doors." she said to jake and the guys.

She turned to The Doors "You guys, this is my other band, The Blues brothers Rythm and Blues revue"

The Doors and Blues brothers rythm and blues Revue all shook hands as they introduced themselves individually.

"What was that song you performed for Christy and Dave when we were auditioning in vegas?" Jake asked her as soon as a song idea popped into his head.

"Texas Flood."

"I say you do that one. Elwood can recognize it because of your guitar and it'll suprise him"

"Yes" she said with a smile "But I sorta wanna do a different song, one that will include the whole band"

After a quick dinner, Maria was about to go with the band to teach them the song, but she went to Ray Robby and John.

"Guys, I need to do this!"

Ray chuckled, crossed his arms and nodded his head "Yes we know."

"Sorry"

"Don't apoligize and go and reunite with your loverboy!" Robby said supportively

She laughed and hugged them

"Thank you guys for understanding. You can watch us from backstage and see how we roll!"

"Yeah we will."

Maria left them to join Jake, feeling as joyous as she did months ago.
