Author's Note: Harley and Hailley meet Starlight for the first time and are brought aboard her tour bus much to the protest of her tutor Crankshaft who seems to be stuck preaching Ancient History while ignoring the growing mountain of packets that have grade 10 English,Math, Science, Geography and a bundle of other subjects Starlight and the others have all fallen behind on.
*SPOILER ALERT* Modo's Momma makes an appearance shortly after the fourth stop when Starlight's bus breaks down. Starlight barely remembers her grandma but Modo's mother remembers her and the other kids and becomes VERY Pissed off at her son for 'hiding' his younger children on earth.

Harley Meets Starlight
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
The last leg of PinkyMint's Newest Album Tour was long and boring or in Starlight's words boring spelled B-O-R-I-N-G! The terrain of her home was the same town after town not to mention the fact that Crankshaft, the tutor for Starlight, Peyton, Blade,Rianna,Roxy and Digger; was STILL yapping on about the Civilization of Mars. Dear GOD how the bored teens wished he'd just shut up and move on to another subject or at least let SOMEONE from Base call just to interrupt the boredom. Ten minutes later much to their relief Starlight's SmartPhone DID ring giving her an excuse to answer it, not that it mattered, once Crank got going on early Martian Settlers,there could be a troupe of drop dead gorgeous naked female martian mice in the middle of the road and Crank would STILL prattle on and on about early Martian Civilization.
Starlight hears her Smartphone go off and answers it: Hello?
Stoker hears Crankshaft still prattling on and says: Is he STILL teaching History?
Peyton: Yep and it's been over two hours since he started AFTER two hours of Politics and before that it was four full hours of Alchemstry. All this AFTER a torturous and grueling seven hour concert.
Stoker: What time did you guys get back on the bus for bed?
Blade: BED? Bed is a foregin word to Crankshaft. It was concert,pack up,a late supper, get on the bus and straight into studies. Concert Started at 6 P.M. and ended at Midnight. Crank's been teaching since we got back on the bus! Majority of us are sitting here falling asleep and he refuses to stop. He says the longer he teaches, the more ground he can cover and the quicker the packets can get done and returned.
Stoker: Not on the backs of your health! Sleep is more important then those bloody packets! Turn on a computer and log into your email accounts, you ALL should have the next batch of assignments to do. Follow the link to the website and get those packet done and submitted to be marked! Let me talk to him, if anyone can drill sense into him, it'd be me!
Starlight puts Stoker on speaker phone to let him hear Crankshaft
Crankshaft: And that brings me to the early 1700's when-
Stoker raises his voice and hollers: Crankshaft!
Crankshaft stops in mid sentence and says: Stoker! What can I do for you?
Stoker: Pack it in and let those kids get some sleep! They're all exhausted from the long concert! Let 'em go to bed and get some sleep!
Crankshaft watches as the younger band members got up and headed towards the back of the bus to get some sleep and sputters: B-B-But we're
Carbine pipes up and says: That's an ORDER! Those kids are at the critical stages in life and sleep is their best friend! Everyone off to bed and get some sleep! Go on! When we're done Crankshaft,give Starlight back her phone! There's no need for you to waste so much time teaching them when all their lessons are online! Let the kids get some sleep! Not everything is about YOU and YOUR needs! You don't need as much sleep as teenagers do! Do you WANT to meet the ugly side of their parents or are you that dense?
Crankshaft snaps his History Teachers Manual shut and says: Why am I on this tour circuit if all their lessons are online? What is my role in all of this? They don't need a tutor if they have an wireless broadband internet connection!
Stoker: No one told you to sign up! You were warned in advance that all studies on tour are done online and submitted so they can be marked and emailed back to be corrected! Of course they don't need a bloody tutor! You're the one that decided that they could benefit from a teacher on board the bus! What do you think Dustin does?! He's in charge of their education! Dustin doesn't need you to take over his job! He's more then capable of making sure the kids get their sleep and get their school work done on time! Pack up your bag and get off at the next stop! Somone will be there to bring you back to base! Next time ASK before assuming no one is teaching these kids!
Several hours later after a through chewing out by both Carbine and Stoker, Crankshaft returned Starlight's phone to her bag beside her bed then returned to his own little cabin and packed his duffel bag ensuring everything of his was packed when a sudden jerking motion threw him off balance and threw the younger band members out of their beds and onto the floor of the bus
Blade: What the--? What just happened?
Dustin come back to the back and says: Sorry folks, it looks like the bus broke down. It'll be anywhere from a few hours to a couple days before I can get things fixed. Why not go out and stretch your legs? You've been cooped up on this bus since last Friday!
Starlight pulls herself to her knees and says with a yawn: *Yawn* Why not? I can't sleep and I'm tired! (Stands up,picks up her belt and straps it around her waist then sticks her feet into her shoes saying) May as well go out and figure out where we are. (Bends over her milk crate,pulls out a hard cover book,flips to the middle of the book and pulls out a couple of pictures thinking) Well if Mami's right, grandma's house should be around here somewhere! (Closes the book and puts it back in the milk crate,tucking the pictures into her side pocket,heads to the front of the bus and disembarks stretching her long tall frame thinking) Man has it really been this long since I got off that bus? Man my legs are all cramped up again! I might just as well take a nice long walk to work out these cramps.
With no particular direction in mind,Starlight begins to walk off the painful cramps that had taken up residence in her legs until she came to a deceivingly perfect little house that had a bit of Plutarkian War damage on it
Starlight stops and stares at the house thinking: I KNOW this place for some strange reason! It feels so familiar to me but I don't know WHY! Dad said his mom still lived here on Mars but he didn't know WHERE. Maybe this place belongs to her? Ahh hell I BARELY even REMEMBER my dear old grey furred grandma but yet she knows ME! Well I won't find grandma by standing here looking like a doof! May as well go ring the bell. (Walks up the path to the door not knowing her grandmother stood in the living room picture window peeking out from behind her curtains)
Rose peers out the window and thinks: *gasp* She's gotten so big! My grandbaby's not a baby anymore! My my my my! Have fifteen years REALLY gone by that fast? It seems like only yesterday she started her first tour circuit and now she's an international Rock/Pop/Movie/TV Star. It's a shame I don't get to see her much anymore. It'd be REALLY nice to have a place on earth near my boy and be able to see my grand children more. (Hears the door bell and calls out) Coming as fast as I can dearie. (Heads out of the living room and into the hall to the door where she unlocks the dead bolt and eye hook on the wooden door then opens it and flings open the screen door crying out) MY BABY STARLIGHT! COME TO GRANDMA!
