[IC] Jeremy Kelly "Passion Kiss" Lightfoot's Pokemon Adventure is nigh. (Group RP)

[James Davy]

Donald found a popular song by an overseas group and cued it up.

♪ Still didn't know what happened
When you knocked upon my door
The things you had, the life you lived
All the dream's you had before
Your eyes were facin' your heart and soul
You know they said it all
What happened on that day back then
The moment hurt us all

Now you can see the reason why not everyone's the same
And you don't have to please them, or try hard to save your name

They said you'd never get anywhere
Well they don't care and it's just not fair
That you know, and I know better
They said you'd never get anywhere
Well they don't care and it's just not fair
That you know, and I know better
Yes I do

Well the weeks go by and you wonder why, "is this really true?"
Your heart says "No" but your feelings show the poor baby never knew
But you and I, we knew deep down, that ain't really you
We always knew that it'd work out right and we could start a new

Now you can see the reason why not everyone's the same

So wake up and get outta your dream
Things ain't always what they seem so
Wake up!
Well things ain't always what they seem
Wake up man, you're in my dream
Things ain't always...

Oh, now you can see the reason why not everyone's the same

That's what they tell me

Never, never, never, never, never, never, never gonna get anywhere

@James Davy

Anistar listened and gasped...

Anistar: Whoa... *Shocked* What the heck was that? That was... incredible.

Jeremy: That was Aspiring, Darling. Now that's what we call... Playing with heart and attitude.

Sandy: How about seeing him try his luck at one of our tunes... Something like... "Some Like it Hot" Heard of it?

Anistar: Jeremy can sing that. He's done it. There's his version of the same song and it's awesome.

Sandy showed off the video so Donald would know the beat...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7cOwMxis5cSomeLikeithot

Sandy: Think you can do it?

Anistar: You're already a awesome sounding vocal virtuoso. So... this tune ought to be a walk in the park and a piece of cake.

Simisear: Amen to that... *Pauses* Wait. Did i just say that... just now?

Pansage: You bet. You did. No problem though. It could've been worse.

Jeremy: Wanna go for one more? Do we have time? *Looking at the time* There should be time... however... with how much distance we've made I can't say.

Would they go for another #? Or was their time done and telling to make back to the location where the concert was said to be held? Could they perhaps Squeeze in just one last # before heading back?

"You've talked me into it," Donald replied, cuing up the song in question. He got into the groove as the drums beat out the intro.

@James Davy

The crowd as Donald sang jeered with glee and moved to the groove of all things that he was singing. It was as if he put them in a trans as he sang and Jeremy could only feel as though he met the part of him that he knew was there... but just wasn't connecting as it should. He felt complete.

After the #...

The crowd cheered...

Patron: Wow! Where did you learn to sing like that? That was completely virtuous.

Jeremy: He learned it as it's in his genes. He's my brother... one that i never knew was out there till only recent. Another son and byproduct of the Rising Star Macie M. Lightfoot.

Patron: Macie?! We heard about her. She was said to have been abducted by Team Magma and was reported to have been seen accompanying them to go after something. Supporting them.

Sgt. Lerner: Ease up, Soldier. That ain't the real truth. The truth of the matter is that the Rising Star's only going along with them to spare her kids from being gone after and taken down. She doesn't want her children to be harmed for her disobedience. They have got her... under a barrel of a gun and if she doesn't aide in their endeavors... her kids are on the chopping block. Only problem is now that her daughters Lisa and Nicole have been abducted by Team Aqua. That team is different than Team Magma but with the strategic objective identical to Team Magma's... but theirs is of land... Aqua is of Sea. Team Aqua wants the help of those two to locate A Blue Orb. To help awaken the Legendary pokemon of the sea... Kyogre.

Patron: Seriously?! Shit... that's totally messed up. So... you're telling us that the Lightfoot's are under the guns with this power struggle all its own?

Sgt. Lerner: afraid so.

Jeremy: My mom is being used... My sisters are in danger and i am not backing down. I'll find some way to defeat Team Magma and Team Aqua. No matter what it takes. I won't give up. I won't back down from the fight.

Sandy: Neither shall i.

Jeremy: By time we're done... Team Magma will be the ones who Sashay away. We're gonna make them pay.

However... it was then when Jeremy got a buzz on his phone and it was from his manager/publicist... Plus his Agent. They were pinging for him.

Jeremy: Well... *Sighs* Looks like we have to get back. The manager called and i have to get to rehearsing. Sandy and i both.

It was a call to rehearsal and getting set for the concert... Time was now rolling at them like a sledgehammer of duty. It was now them... against the time that they'd need to get back to where the concert was said to be. Passion Kiss, Rainbow Kiss... and Digi-Enforcer... ROLL CALL! Time for Center stage preparations PDQ!

<Snipped quote by Smarty Jones>

Pidgeotto winked in a pose before...

Pidgeotto: It's been given to the cashier. No worries. *Whistles* Come on... i sometimes play around... but i don't lose money that ain't mine. Besides that the cashier is only past those 4 stands of merchandise... I dropped the $20 dollars right in front of the cashier and made certain that he knew where it came from and from who.

Arcanine: Someone should go ask anyway... We can't take that chance. This is the only place that's with an available spot to stick to for the night and camp out. Zebstrika... Come out... You have guard duty tonight.

Jessie's Zebstrika came out and patrolled over to the camping spot and kept a watch on it. Checking to see that there wasn't any danger.

Jessie: We'll get this. One way or another.

Timburr ran over to set up some beams to help pitch up camp and get it set for the night...

@MacieLightfoot

Riolu, now called Rocky or Rocking Fist, went to help Timburr with the beams, while James called out Poochyena.

"Go make sure that the money was dropped off to the cashier. Not that I don't trust Pidgeotto, but I just want someone to make sure." James told Poochyena, who just nodded in response and went to find the cashier.

Jessie grinned at the gesture and couldn't help but chuckle.

Jessie: *Chuckling* You are so cautious. There's no such thing with throwing caution to the wind with you i guess... Is there?

Jessie was amused. But it wasn't long before the campsite was put together and made to suffice for them and keep them in comfort. However... They were not gonna be alone for long...

Someone was coming their direction... from the north... just miles distance. Were they gonna be friends... or foes?

"We better scramble posthaste," said Donald, making his way back to the vehicle they used to get to the karaoke bar.

@James Davy

It was then where they called out for Sandy's Fearow and as fast as they knew that Fearow could fly and soar... They flew fast over double time back to the location of where the concert was to be held.

Once there...

Front stage of the Concert Podium...



Jeremy: Sandy... Which song do we begin with? We need a good one. A Grabber...



Sandy: The Impossible Dream. You could try that.

Jeremy: The Impossible Dream... Hmm. Nice one. Very nice. That's a good selection. We can do a 10 song set. One being... Some like it hot. Stop Crying your heart out. Me and Mrs. Jones... Set it all free. Private Eyes. Metropolis Coast Party.

Sandy: Right. Donald is gonna be singing the Metropolis Coast party one with you...

Anistar: *Looking at Donald* Donald... Which song would you be willing to do?

It was planning and prepping time for the two celebs. All that was left to do till the concert... was rehearse... but of course... Donald would be practicing too as Jeremy was setting it up for him to join along...

[James Davy]

"I like the sound of Metropolis Coast Party," Donald answered, preparing his keytar for his parts.

[MacieLightfoot]

@James Davy

Jeremy: You're gonna be singing with me for that #, Donald. It's gonna be a great #. The starting of the Concert will be The Impossible dream. How i'm gonna be coming on the stage as Sandy and I'm introduced is misty veils with hearts and Sparkles of passionate lips flowing through the air... in Mid-air.

Sandy: That's true. Very true. I'm gonna be coming alongside him... But we're gonna be coming into view riding roller blades.

Jeremy: *Nods*

Anistar: Donald... when it comes time for you to be on stage... You'll be coming from the right side. Cued by robotic voice.

Gurdurr: *Checking the steel beams and ensuring that the beams were up to safety recommendations*

Simisear: *Using Fire to weld more beams together as needed to help better fortify the stage stands and beams*

Fearow: *Keeping eye overhead and watching to make sure that everything was safe*

It was getting to the time for Sound checks. The stage crew and the Sound and Audio team were getting the things set to go. Rehearsals were... now underway.

Anistar: Donald... when it comes time for you to be on stage... You'll be coming from the right side. Cued by robotic voice.

Jeremy: *Winks* Check.

Seconds later...

Jeremy: *Looking at the Audio and Video crew* Enhance sound for "The Impossible Dream"

Within seconds...

The sound crew worked up the Sound and the video... Opening for Jeremy to do his thing...

https://youtu.be/7Jkkmb6jEAU?t=50TheImpossibleDream

Jeremy: *Singing* “To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go

To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far

To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause

And I know if I’ll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I’m laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go

To run where the brave dare not go
For the Road be ever too high
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

To reach the unreachable star
For you know it’s impossibly high
To live with your heart’s driving upward
To reach (Hold 1 1/2 beats) the unreachable star (Hold 8 beats)”

The crew were checking the sound and making sure that the track was recorded and on spot...

Sandy: This will definitely work... Really work.

Gothorita: *Levitating with telekinesis*

The rehearsals were gonna roll on in...

[James Davy]

"Bravo, Jeremy!" Donald applauded, "If you were this great in rehearsal, it'll be a great pleasure performing with you once the real McCoy starts happening."

[MacieLightfoot]

"Bravo, Jeremy!" Donald applauded, "If you were this great in rehearsal, it'll be a great pleasure performing with you once the real McCoy starts happening."

@James Davy

Jeremy: *Grins* I've been doing this since i was 13. Actually since i was 12... but at first... nobody knew of it. Well... nobody outside of school and Sandy. My sisters and Mom... they had no idea. In fact... I remember the afternoon that i was attacked for being gay. It was a couple hours after the altercation that came at the break time... She spoke with the principal and as mom would tell it... IT happened like this...

Jeremy flashes back...

"

Macie: *Walking into the Principal's office* Principal Stevens.

Principal Stevens: Mrs. Lightfoot. I do apologize for calling as i had. but it was for a reason... and anything that happens to any student... it's on us to handle. Sometimes making calls such as the one i've made to you... is needed. It's common sense to inform the parents. It's their right to know what's going on with their kids.

Macie: I get that. I do understand. But i'd like to know what's going on with my son Jeremy. Is he okay? Where is he?

Principal Stevens: He's in the nurses office. Getting tended to. He was a little roughed up and took some licks. But if nothing more... his pride and self confidence has been wounded quite a bit.

Macie: Please... Just tell me what happened. Please.

Principal Stevens: I'll get to that. But i should ask first... what the heck is going on with him and his looking like one of Desmond Napoles's drag kid looks from back when he was 12? I get that he's the known godfather to him as it says in the school records. But... Jeremy is a sporting young youth. Gay. clearly. But... Looking like Desmond. Isn't that one to be detrimental to Jeremy when he gets older?

Macie: I took him to someone who knew how to help. People don't realize that there is a wizard in town. I went to him and he turned Jeremy into looking like Desmond's one Drag kid look. You will be stunned to know why i've done it. It's because yesterday night i caught him in a dress. He was wearing one of my dress's. A flower designed dress. Also wearing lipstick with sparkles. Plus eye shadow. Make-up and blush. He was wearing it. My make-up. I for the longest time noticed lipstick on him. Noticed that one of my lipsticks were missing. Every other day... a different one would be missing. interchanged. I for a while before last night reaching a decision... never put much mind to it as i usually got so busy trying to raise my kids... trying to also handle my career obligations as well as keep things rolling. So it never struck me. I didn't take much to notice that one of my lipstick's would be missing and each other day... a different one. One would go missing... and then 2 days later the one that was missing would be right where it was... and a different one would go missing. Two days later it was returned and a different one would... Poof! go missing. It was like a pattern. every two days a different one would go missing. Last night... it was the straw that really sealed it. My son was a gay youth. A closet gay boy. I caught him doing it. So... it was that point where i knew... he was a gay youth. A possible awakening drag kid. I knew that he was different and feeling like he was maybe a struggling kid in coming out with who he felt... but i never would figure that what he had been caught doing last night... would be the result. I never saw it coming. Not like that. But it happened.




Principal Stevens: *Stern; To Macie* And it took till last night...


*Pointing to the photos of Jeremy before the current look and after look* after possible many weeks of him acting a bit strange... Wearing one of your dresses. Your make up and lipstick to reach the point of having to stage an intervention. Raised him as a kid with a struggling identity. He is clearly embracing all of the perks of being a young gay kid... for the very first time. Letting it all out. Kissing other boys in school. He does not even know what is happening. As a mother... you should know this. I'm a parent myself, Mrs. Lightfoot and even i would catch signs that something odd was going on with one of my own kids. Not right away... if i didn't happen to know what i was looking for. But i wouldn't turn a blinds eye to it till it all of a sudden got too far to where you couldn't deny it. Couldn't blow it off as just a phase.

Macie: Hey. I am doing the best i can. I can't monitor every little thing that happens. In order to do that... I'd have to lojack him... Lojack my kids and i won't do that. I'm a mother. Not a Warden.

Principal Stevens: No... Just a bit irresponsible. You don't have to LoJack them. But to go around and not notice signs that pointed out... "Hey, i think that there's something rather off about my son or daughter." That's like letting them go out freely without restraints and get into all sorts of possible trouble. You do realize that... that's how more and more young kids start getting into gangs. Fighting. Doing drugs. Drinking. Smoking. It's because of parents... out there... not keeping a sharper eye on their kids. You have lived in a viscous bubble thinking that things would be all pure. Loving. Innocent. It isn't. It'd be nice if they were... Innocent. pure. Clean. But... they're not. Nowhere remotely close to that.

Macie: I sense that you see the word "Fool" written all over me.

Principal Stevens: No. I don't. I just feel rather sorry for you. Wanting to believe that things were always good. It's not. Not to shoot the walls and divert from the subject here... I am however... a subtle fan of what you are. All the CD's in Vinyl. LP and CD's.

Macie: I... wow! Okay. That's refreshing.

Principal Stevens: 20 years ago the heroes were being sneered at and made into unwanted individuals. No one wanted them. No one turned to go after the LGBTQ individuals. There wasn't a need for doing as such. No need to raise a stink. But as the years progressed... People regrew to tolerate the heroes. The ones which... yes had abilities and powers. Only now to gradually come right on after the people who were same sex oriented. Same gender. 12 years ago... there was some discontent of LGBTQ individuals being among the rest of the crowds here. Desmond was safe here. He knew to play both gay... and straight. Even a little bi. But he was neutral. So even though he was admittedly gay. No one messed with him. no one bothered him much at all. 5 years later... from that... Things started to slowly but noticeably fuel up on the hatred of LGBTQ people. Gay people in general. Not directed at any specific person. Just a grand general population of all those... who were. Over the last couple years... it got to where people saw it as a disease. a dirty existence not meant to even be among the normal straight bracket. Now all of a sudden... in comes your son... Jeremy. He comes in... Looking like this:

! He comes looking like a Desmond Napoles... Desmond is Amazing copycat. Desmond wasn't a miscreant. Nor a bad kid. He was a wonderful kid. Sharp nose. strong ambition. Rather dramatic at times because there were such conservative people always hounding him and with the bull they put on him... it's a wonder that he didn't crack up. Anyone else... They would have just said the hell with it all and that was it. Suicide city. Which is sad because with the social media out there... Cyber bullying can cause a person to want to commit suicide after a while because it gets to be too much. Worse after a while. But Desmond. No. He took things to heart and became his own black bird. Flipped the script and came off with the "Don't pay the haters no mind as they'll never be as fierce as you and I" line. It worked. It worked and he kept it all through his life. Your son Jeremy is no Desmond. No matter how much he may look like him... he isn't. He never will be. Now... is that like saying Jeremy's a bad kid? No. He's not. He's a great kid. Sharp. Strong in mind and he's also very direct in what he's after. He is polite. Well spoken. Plus he can carry a tune. Singing like Jim Nabors and Tim Curry. Then as Cher and Taylor Swift plus Katy Perry... Combined. He retains what is said in class and also can answer them with his own... flair.

Macie: My son can sing. Sing? I... i never knew that he could sing... Not openly. At home... he was always so reserved. afraid to come out with that. Or the fact that he was... a gay youth. *Sighs happily* Wow.

Seconds later...

Macie: Where's my son? Still in the Nurse's office?

Principal Stevens: Yes. You can go and see him if you like. In the future though... please do ensure that you keep close watch on all that your son does. Being Gay is not a crime. A person is free to be how he so chooses. But in the end... in these times where Gayness and same sex admiration's are being under the attack... it isn't as safe as one would wish to believe.

Macie: I'll be sure to do that. Thank you."

Jeremy: It's been like that... but i have been dubbed "Passion Kiss" for the first time by Sandy.

Sandy: Very true. Jeremy Dubbed me "Rainbow Kiss" for the first time during that time... The alias stuck since.

Jeremy: I sang since 12. A few times been heard singing "The Impossible Dream" A group of people have made belief that i sounded with a mixture of Jim Nabors, Tim Curry... then when it's a high pitch... it's a mix between Cher, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry.

Anistar: Blows your mind.... doesn't it?

They spoke of it for a few more minutes... What more could they say?

[James Davy]

"Wow…" Donald commented, "I'm so glad to know you have a mother who understands your identity. Not all of them do."

[MacieLightfoot]

"Wow…" Donald commented, "I'm so glad to know you have a mother who understands your identity. Not all of them do."

Jeremy: *Winks* Don't be giving me that... She's your mother too. As you've said. The DNA proves it.

Sandy: You better believe it.

Within seconds...

Jeremy did another #...

Jeremy: *Rehearsing; Singing* "Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing, goin' on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We meet every day at the same cafe
Six-thirty and no one knows she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the juke box plays our favorite songs

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones (Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones)
We got a thing, goin' on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We gotta be extra careful
That do we don't build our hopes up too high
Because she's got her own obligations
And so, and so, do I

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones (Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones)
We got a thing, goin' on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

Well, it's time for us to be leaving
It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
Now she'll go her way and I'll go mine
Tomorrow we'll meet
The same place, the same time

Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin' on
We gotta be extra careful
We can't afford to build our hopes up too high
I wanna meet and talk with you
At the same place, the same cafe, the same time
And we gonna hold hands like we used to
We gonna talk it over, talk it over
We know, they know, and you know what I know that it was wrong
But our thing is strong, we gotta let 'em know now
That we gotta thing going on, a thing going on"

A second later...

Music changed to where Jeremy tried one from the Rising Star's music Albums...

Jeremy: This one never made it onto mom's one album. Even though... she had done her take on it...

Music starts...

Jeremy: *Singing* "You left me spinning like a disco
Trying but I don't know
If I can stand straight
You took me left when you knew I was right
Now I got to try to fight just to make it through the day

I never knew what you were capable of
Baby, I would've kept my heart
But I gave it up
Baby, I fell in love
Now I don't know where to start

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this,
But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

You left me broken like a record
Baby, I'm baby I'm hurt and I don't want to play anymore
Missed every sign
Believed ever lie
And I was waiting for more

I never knew what you were capable of
Baby, I would've kept my heart
But I gave it up
Baby, I fell in love
Now I don't know where to start

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this alone,
But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

You took my heart off my sleeve
But now I'm taking it back
Baby, here I come
You took advantage of me
I don't appreciate that, that
You son of a gun

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere

It's so cold with nobody to hold me
You're so wrong for leaving when you told me
You would never leave me by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere
Now I'm lost
Trying to make it on my own
I thought I could never do this alone,
But now I'm walking by myself
Out in the middle of nowhere"

Anistar: *Cheers* Wow! Look at Passion Kiss. Listen to him go...

Sandy: That's our Passion Kiss. Good Ole Jeremy...

But that was when out of nowhere...

"“Nobody told me
That I’d be in happy faces
Trying to erase the traces
Of what came before me
The girl that I used to see is somewhere buried deep
She’s fallen asleep and I’m trying to wake her
Set her free

Now is a never ending thing
One moment turns into another
Before I’ve had time to run from all the other ones
And it’s so hard to live a dream
When the everything that they want you to be
Is anything but me

So much confusion
Circling outside my head
What this one and that one said
It’s all an illusion
Cus I’m still the same person no matter how fast I run
I’m trying to hold onto where it is I come from

Now is a never ending thing
One moment turns into another
Before I’ve had time to run from all the other ones
And it’s so hard to live a dream
When the everything that they want you to be
Is Anything but me

I’m trying to hold onto where it is I come from

Now is a never ending thing
One moment turns into another
Before I’ve had time to run from all the other ones
And it’s so hard to live a dream
When the everything that they want you to be
Is Anything but me”

Jeremy: *Pausing* Who... what... What was that?

Something mysterious was beginning to take fold...

[James Davy]

"Whoever sang that, nice performance, but show yourself please," Donald ordered, wondering who or what crashed their rehearsal.

@James Davy

Jeremy listened to the voice of the singing and recognized it...

Jeremy: Donald... Brother... That... that voice... That was our mother. That was Macie.

Sandy: That was Macie? Mrs. Lightfoot?

Jeremy: Yes, Sandy... that was...

Darlene: Lampent can go and find out where that voice is coming from and without being detected... *Calling out her pokemon* Lampent... I call on you. Come on out!

"Lampent!"

Anistar: Darlene, not to doubt you or question you... but how did you evolve your Litwick so quick?

Darlene: It was during the brief parting of Jeremy from the the main group that had Lisa and Nicole. While we were trying to fend off Team Magma's attack... Litwick came out and tried to place some attacks on team Magma. It got some good attacks in before getting nearly hammered. But with the fighting it did... it gained a lot of Exp. Enough to gain the strength and elevated stats required to Evolve. *To Lampent* Lampent, There's a Voice detected nearby that sounds off... It may sound like the Rising Star's. We don't know where it's coming from or from which direction... Go and do some recon and trace the origin of the voice. Find out where it's coming from and let us know.

Lampent: *Nods* Pent...

A few seconds later...

Jeremy: Gothorita, Teleport around and see if you can find anything out of the ordinary.

Sandy: We'll get to the bottom of this. But first... for now, let's get some rehearsing done...

The rehearsing resumes...

[James Davy]

Donald resumed rehearsing his parts, but a part of him couldn't shake the notion of his mother making it to the concert. What he had heard defied logic unless someone smuggled in a recording.

@James Davy

Jeremy went right on with another #. But in the back of his mind... something was off about that mysterious incident.



Jeremy: *Voice-Over* My Prodigal Brother who i reunited with not too long ago was with a point somewhere. Something about the incident was profoundly mysterious and something about it seemed very off. I wasn't sure if there was gonna be anything that either Donald and I would be able to do to get ahead of the sudden release of the voice. Which sounded very much like Macie. It sounded just like the Rising Star and there was no telling as to either it was to tell she was nearby... or if it was a ruse to land a warning to us. I didn't see it as a warning before... but now with everything slowly being put right up on the table and placed for all to see... I didn't dare to turn a head looking to other direction and not pay it any mind. We had a couple of our pokemon out doing reconnaissance to look and find where the source was. Find out where it was coming from. Donald was of course certain that it was likely some type of tomfoolery and i couldn't blame him as i had this slight suspicion as well and it was very clear that if it was a joke... It had to be Team Magma's ploy. To catch us off the guard and defensive.
This was all while during Sandy and I... plus Donald were suiting and prepping for the concert. One that of which was only 2 days away. Time was not on our sides and we knew that we were gonna need to keep our minds on the concert and not let the distraction veer us off from the current objective. The St. Louis Concert. My only wonder was... Would there be a concert expected to be held in Cleveland too once that time came?

The Rehearsals pressed on again...
