12:22 pm, Aug 10

• They were all backstage, going over what they were supposed to do and their plan for their big presence at the pep rally

Camil: so, did everyone do their task?

Moon: as far as I know, yep

Camil thanks moon but I want to hear it from the guys

The rest: yes Camil

Alex: the band wouldn't listen to me but...i got someone who helped me out

Camil: okay then, Austin, Terrin, Jason? Got the dance crew

Jason: well, it wasn't easy but yea

Terrin: yea if it wasn't for Austin, we wouldn't been able to get them to join

Austin: aw haha your welcome, oh and Terrin also got some backup from people he used to know too

Jason: yea they seem tight

Terrin: if that's okay with you Camil

Camil: yea of course! The more people who join us in this, the grander it will be. Now Cameron, Bryce, and Leo?

Cameron: we got the song layout ready and finished

Leo: yea it took a while figuring out what goes where but it was a lot easier with everyone putting their ideas in

Bryce: we are doing the finishing touches of it tonight at the IN, so we all need to be there

Camil: perfect guys really! Now last but not least which I doubt I even got to ask but moon? How about you?

Moon: It took some convincing but I got everyone I knew who can help with the outfits, production and stage set and more

Camil: yes! Great this is great guys really! I actually feel a lot less stressed haha...

Alex: that's good, you should have to do these things alone

Moon: more like go through this alone, you deserve help, we all do

The rest: agree!

Camil: okay so I was thinking maybe later today we gather everyone who are willing to help us with this plan

Jason: cool, so where is that going to be?

Camil: "yea that's the thing...i don't know" she said shrugging her shoulders

Leo: what about that one place we used to go...you know before we started hanging out at the IN?

Alex: that abandoned place?

Cameron: we haven't been there since...like what? Last year?

Bryce: were not going back

Jason/Terrin: well, I think it's a good idea

Bryce: guys...

Austin: yea I mean no one ever goes there...thats why we would always hangout at that place right?

Moon: yea and no one would ever know where we will be haha

Camil: well now remembering everything...i don't see a reason why we shouldn't have everyone meet up there in secret, I mean its-

Bryce: GUYS!

The rest: yes...?

Bryce: were not going back...that's the end of discussion

Camil: Bryce...

Bryce: what?

• As Bryce looks at Camil looking at him as if she needed this, he realizes how much this means to her, to all of them, even though he had to go back to the place where he had to sleep on the ground and had his nights... He couldn't let the band down

Bryce: ...fine

The rest: yes!

Camil: "oh thank you Bryce!" she said hugging him

Bryce: yea whatever, just...don't have us stay there for too long

Camil: okay I promise. Now, everyone...you know the drill, have everyone at the abandoned place by 5, and don't let anyone see you okay?

The rest: got it!

Camil: haha cam? What are we doing?
