Special. like us and they act like us, but they are not us. Birdie, slow down. Tell me again. What did you see? Three huge dudes. Childcatchers. One talked to his wrist, and he was talking to Flashcard.
Did Flashcard sound like Brinley? I couldn't hear who was on the other line. Maybe we should abort. What if they trap Poliday before we can trap Flashcard? Quiet, quiet. Settle down, everyone. Welcome to an evening celebrating the great talent at Whittier Middle School. We're beginning with our seventh grade select jazz band led by Mr. Lutz.
Cyrus, where's Halle? She's not up there. The sunglass guys got her already. Do you see Brinley? She's not up there either. The sunglass guys are gone. Bird, you stay with the hoverboard. Don't let it go yet, no matter what sound it means. You're putting me in charge of the hoverboard? I am going to find the child catchers. And Holiday. Someone help us! Please get me out of here!
So, Brinley, what was your big plan? Trap me in here alone so I could miss the concert? Wow the crowd with your solo? Or was it something bigger? What are you talking about? Stop pretending that this is just a jazz concert. Every time I think you couldn't get weirder... Tell me the plan, Brinley. The whole plan. How dense can you be?
The plan was that I go out there on my own, wow the scout, and get a full ride to Anchorage School of the Arts and never have to see your dumb face again. Oh, please, quit lying already. What's your damage, Holiday? Don't you even care that you're missing the concert? No! I only care about keeping my family together and safe from freaks like you! You're not even the mayor of Crazy Town! You're like the governor! Tell me the truth! Fine!
You know, I had it all before you showed your face here. Good grades, popular, a fabulous extracurricular portfolio. And then you walk in and try to out everything me. Even after I tried to take you under my wing and show you the ropes, I would have happily shared the spotlight. Yeah, so you could set me up and then ruin my life. You're the one ruining lives. Tell me exactly how I'm ruining your life, Brinley.
You seriously need a recap? You barely show up for school but still know the answers to everything. You assault me! Leave class because you have, like, live animals in your backpack or something. Wait, backpack? that's when this all started that day in class with my backpack uh acting up that's when you realized who i really was flash card
Scoot over. Did you find the sunglass guys? No. Cyrus, what do we do? We have to save Holiday. If they've already gotten her... You think they got her? I don't know. I'm scared, Cyrus. And I still have to go to the bathroom. Should we call Mom and Dad? Not yet. The hoverboard can help us. Right now, it's waiting for my signal. We made Hovey promise not to react to Holiday being in danger.
But we could go backstage and then tell it to try to find Holiday and those men. Grab the backpack and let's go. Got it. Or no, I don't. Birdie? Problem. Brinley and Holiday aren't the only ones. that have disappeared. Don't tell me. Huffy is gone too. Shh. It's starting.
