Drew was having a problem. He knew Maddy was up to something but wasn't sure what it was. Even tonight she was being elusive about something. She even got a bunch of IM's on her phone from someone and wouldn't let him in on it.

Maddy was just coming back from where she went to answer Brit's IM. She could see Drew stewing over something, probably her evasiveness about the IM's.

"Come on Mad, Give over," Drew stated as soon as Maddy was back next to him. "What is going on?"

"Drew if you must know, Brit has offered to have what she called a slumber party for the 'girls' and since you are going to be there she didn't think she needed to tell you about it until you got there." Mad stated in exasperation, hoping Drew wouldn't press her any further. She hated lying to him, but hoped that it would be worth it.

Drew shrunk back a little at that. Sheepishly he replied. "Sorry Mad. It just seems like whenever you get together with Brit, I always get trapped worse than normal."

Wrapping her arms around him from behind Maddy said, " You know I wouldn't hurt you." Resting her head on his shoulder.

"Hurt, no. But it feels like you'll do anything to be with Gaby sometimes" Drew leaned his head over on hers. " And with Mum doing what she did, I feel so lost sometimes."

"Andrew Bond!" Maddy said" As long as I am around, I will never allow you to get lost. So don't worry about it." She playfully pinched his rear and took off running. Drew, one to never let a challenge go unanswered gave her a 5-stride head start and was after her in a shot.

Meanwhile in America...

Brit was late getting to practice. Ms. Bell was sure to be upset but if what she and Maddy were putting together worked, then a late mark could be removed. Approaching Ms. Bell, Brit went over her and Maddy's plan once more.

"Britney Walters, do you realize you are 15 minutes late for practice." The voice of Jessica Bell startled Brit out of her thoughts. "This is no way for a future starter to act."

"Yes Ms.Bell. I was IM'ing Maddy and we need to ask you if the last stop had been authorized yet."

Ms. Bell looked at Brit as if she had no idea what she was talking about. Brit had her look of questioning shift to one of being crestfallen. At this Ms. Bell smiled. " Of course it has been approved. When can we tell the others?"

Brit's eyes lit up at that. " Well Maddy asked to keep it quiet for as long as possible and not to let a certain group in on it until later."

Ms. Bell smiled at that. "Of course. You know the Anime club wants to go as well?" to which Brit only nodded. "As it will be a school sanctioned event, I don't see any problems. Now get out to practice"

Brit bounced up and down with anticipation as she went to the gym for cheer practice.

Returning to her office, she saw her message light was blinking. Checking it she saw it was a call from one of her former students, Diane Biggs. 'I wonder...' she thought to herself as she returned the call...

*****************************************************************************************

Carrie Underwood, president of the Grottoes Anime Club, was in heaven. In front of her was an approved list of students who were going to be allowed to attend the con. Several of the exchange students were on the list as well as about 1/4 of the club members. It was more then she could have hoped for. All she needed to do was get the group registration sent in and they would be set.

She had been planning her costume for months now and it was almost finished. ' I hope no one else is planning on doing Jeannie from KKJ' she thought. To her Jeannie was the absolute in Femininity. Not to mention she also liked her keywords and took them to heart herself.

At that moment her club VP came in, Jack Warren. "Is that the list? " he asked. Carrie nodded. "Cool, so who gets the honors in the club?" he asked.

"Well, there is you, and me of course. Then our new member Britney Walters from the cheer squad. George Stoddard and his sister Amy, and one unexpected surprise, Mark Peters." at this she paused, " I wonder if he is distantly related to this Maddy Peters from the exchange group?"

Jack looked over the list from behind Carrie. "Could be, but I don't see how. So do you still want to do the KKJ theme?" He asked. "I have almost all of the pieces for Sinbad just waiting for the Black Angel stuff to arrive from Japan"

Carrie nodded to the affirmative. "This is going to be such fun" she called out and proceeded to get the group registered online.
