1: Redshore City

I woke up, and I checked the time on my phone. Huh, only 8:30 A.M? That's odd...

Today me and Moon were seeing Suki Lane. It was pretty rough getting her to come all the way over here, but we did it.

I made it to the theatre, and walked inside. Moon greeted me and told me we had a lot of work to do. I nodded and went inside my office.

Gunter then walked in and told me he had ideas for another play, like a sci-fi one or something. I wasn't too interested, though. I just told him we would talk about it later and he nodded and left. Damn, the shows about to start.

I walked downstairs, and saw Moon and the rest of the actors reciting their lines. Buster saw me walk in and waved. "Y/N, come over here! You're a part of this show too!" I smiled and walked over.

everyone gathered around in a big circle and we said our cheer. "there's no way left to go, but UP!"

The show was amazing, and Ms. Crawly was looking at Suki from above. "How's it going, Ms. Crawly?" Buster said as he got up the stool he put in so he could see the big crowd. "Oh, so far so good, Mr. Moon!"

I looked below and saw her. Damn, she's young!

"Dream big dreams, amiright Y/N?" Moon said as he stepped down. I giggled. "Oh, yeah."

Ms. Crawly started to panic. "What's going on, Ms. Crawly?" I said as I put my hand on her shoulder. "She's leaving the theatre! Look down there!"

Buster immediately got on a rope like it was a zipline and went towards her. I stayed behind.

It was around 11 P.M when I woke up. Moon was calling me? At this hour? "Buster? What the hell is going on-"

"Listen Y/N, I already called rosita to gather the gang up. Meet me at the bus station in 20!" He said. Where was he? It sounded like he was at some concert or something...

I made it to the bus station, and saw the gang and moon getting on the bus. "Oh my god Y/N, you couldn't be here earlier?" Moon said as he passed out scripts.

"Sorry, I uh, lost track of time..." I replied as I sat down on the seat. "Where are we going, Buster?"

He laughed. "We're going to Redshore city, to audition for Mr. Crystals show. They're going to be tomorrow!"

Time skip

We made it to the auditions, and we were up next. "Guys, we're up next." I said as I got the radio.

We performed our song, but this crystal guy stopped us. "No! Ugh Jerry, I need big ideas! Big shows!"

Jerry escorted us out when I suddenly remembered something. "Gunter, your show." I whispered into Gunter's ear and he began to get excited. "What if we get Clay Calloway on the show?"

Mr. Crystal got up from his chair and walked towards us. "Woah woah woah, Clay Calloway? I love that guy. He's such a good singer. Or at least was.."

Buster laughed nervously and said, "haha..! who doesnt love him?"

Crystal got up and looked at him in the eyes. "If you know Calloway, then you can get him on the show, right?"

Time skip

"Calloway is a recluse! No one has seen him in over 10 years!" Ash said as she walked with moon. He looked at me and I shrugged. "Well, we're going to have to get him sooner or later..." Buster said as he started typing Gunters ideas in his laptop.

"I'll go to find him." I volunteered as Ash got curious. "Ooh, can I go too?! You'll need me!"

I sighed. "Okay, let's go."

Buster looked at both of us and smiled. "Please, get him here in a month... Crystal won't be pleased if he doesn't come after that!"

We both nodded and left.

Time skip

We made it to Clays house, and we saw him there, fixing his motorcycle.

"Calloway! We want to talk to you!" Ash shouted. I saw the Lion look up, and questioned himself. "Go away!" He replied.

"Fine, if you won't come to us, we'll come to you!" I said as I went towards the fence.

"No, DON'T!"

Ash and me grabbed on the fence but we suddenly got shocked. What just happened...

Time skip

I woke up, and I found myself in a strange room. Am I in Clay's house?

"Y/N. I haven't seen you in years..." clay said as he faced his chair towards me. "Clay. You're still cooped up in here, huh?" I said as I got up. "You don't sing anymore, don't you...?"

He sighed and stood up. "No... Not since, well, you know."

I fixed my hair and walked towards him. "I miss her too, you know. You're not alone."

He gave me a hug and I hugged him back. Damn, he really hasn't changed... at all.

Time skip

"I'm going to stay here and help him, you can go." I said as I took my luggage out of the car.

Ash had a confused look on her face, but nodded. "Do whatever you can, please... we're all counting on you."

I walked back inside to see Clay looking at his guitar. He had a picture of his wife there, and he smiled when he saw it. I walked towards him, and got curious.

"You still have my drums?" I said as I closed the guitar case. My eyes met his, and he got nervous.

He chuckled. "Yeah, i think it's in the room over there."

I walked towards the room, and I saw it. My drum set, it was there... and it wasn't dusty...

"You clean it?" I said as I inspected the cymbals. He walked towards me and out his hand on my shoulder. "Yup. Figured you'd come back... and want to play it someday."

"You know I don't play anymore. I can't." I said as I sat down on the chair. He laughed and shook his head. "Nah, I don't believe that. Let's make a deal."

I looked at him and he smiled. "You play the drums, and I'll play my uh... guitar."

I'm glad he's happy around me, but something isn't right. He was sad last night... and now he's suddenly happy?

"You sure you want to play? I mean... what about her..." I said as I picked up my drum sticks.

"She would want me to play again." He replied as he got his guitar out of the case.
