Chapter 8: The Montage

I am sooo sorry this took so long to post, I have been packing in the work and I’ve started a few other stories. Bu the holidays are here so I should be a bit quicker

Clam and Amber sat in the music room working on the next song, Clam sat at the piano and amber sat on a seat behind him. Clam played a small tune on the piano and turned round to look back at Amber. She simply shook her head, placed a cd in the small cd player and pressed play. Clam sat in his seat for a second as he listened to the song. He then turned back to the piano and started to play along with the tune. Amber started to grin and nod at Clam.

All of the scout’s busses were parked in the same place and one by one they started to disappear as Scout groups started to head home.

Dave and Ping pong were standing on the lighting walkway above the stage tying a light to the rack suspended above the stage. Dave finished the rigging and leaned back to make sure that the light was in the right place. Suddenly the whole lighting rack fell down and crashed on the floor of the stage with great impact. Ping Pong and Dave slowly looked down at the stage and saw Nigel Sloughworm emerging from under the pile of rubble. Dave started running and as soon as Ping Pong saw this he followed his brother as and they were both quickly out of sight.

Lazlo and Patsy were on stage doing another dance. Lazlo held a Bright red Rose in his mouth as he held patsy tight so he could do his tango move. Patsy was wearing a red ribbon around her neck and as Lazlo pulled her back from the move she twirled out of his arms and back into the close tango. She glanced quickly at the judges and saw the impressed look on all their faces. She quickly looked back to Lazlo and focused on the dance again.

More busses were now disappearing but some scout groups that hadn’t made it to the next round still stayed to watch the finals live show

Almandine sat in Sampson’s room with him as they studied pages and pages of schedules. Almandine put the tick on the last piece of paper and sat back on the bed. But she didn’t have time to relax as Sampson tapped her on the shoulder and unraveled a huge list that flew out the window s it uncoiled. Almandine sighed as she pulled a pen out of her front pocket and looked at the list with Sampson.

Edward sat alone by the pool. He was lying on a fold out pool chair with a ice cold drink in his hand and a huge grin on his face. He closed his eyes and listed to the sound of the others playing in the pool. He suddenly woke as a huge slash of water hit him caused by another scout diving into the pool. Edward started to shake with anger and then he suddenly jumped into the pool after the kid.

More busses slowly began to disappear until less then half of the original number were left

Nina sat against the mirrored wall of the dance room reading a book closely. The book was all about Complex Dance steps. She pulled her book down to look up at Raj. He was leaning against the wall, wearing black tights and a fluro green head band. Nina’s Faced changed to a horrified and disgusted face as Raj started to do the dance Moves from the movie “fame”.

Lumpus sat in the Scout masters hideout, watching Miss Doe through the surveillance system. He was watching for any proof that Slinkman was dating Miss Doe and so far all he had seen was them talking and getting lunch together. The muscular Scout master that had Shown Lumpus into the Hideout walked up next to him and held out a cup of coffee to him. Lumpus looked up at him and started at him for a while, then quickly snatched the cup of coffee from his hands without breaking the angry stare. She then turned back to look at the screen again without saying a word. The other scoutmaster just walked away shaking his head.

Only a quarter of the busses were left now

The stage was buzzing with people doing jobs, doing the very early jobs for the main event, the finals live show. Suddenly all four of the lemming brothers ran past the stage holding an amplifier above their heads.

Lazlo and Patsy tried to not look at each other as they did there ball room dance. Not only was it slow and boring, but their friends were watching this one and they found it embarrassing to be holding hands and dancing slowly together. It wasn’t that they didn’t like dancing close or holding hands, they had done that before in their other dances. It was the fact that they were being watched by all their pears. Scouts from their camp either found it disgusting or hilarious. And this made the whole dance uncomfortable.

Now there were only about six busses left and only two of the busses camps were still in the competition.

The finals were here!

Woot. Now don’t worry, I will have the next chapter soon and the final dance is so close now, so stay tuned.
