Yes, Nadroj and Yelsrap were under attack from the evil, terrifying Lurtsenator! And as the beast threw extremly sharp (ha ha!) qwarter-notes at them, Calliope Veronica looked out of her tower on Mt. Mij and laughed. Indeed, she had sent the Lurtsenator on them, mainly because she was having a bad day and SOMEONE had spelled her name completely wrong (even in backwards form) earlier in the story. After awhile, she grew bored of watching Nadroj and Yelsrap being chased around in circles, so she called off the Lurtsenator and appeared to the travelers.
"What is it you have come to my mountain for?!" she said in a booming and overly dramatic voice.
" Well-" Yelsrap began.
"Um, I already know what you want, duh! I'm a muse... I just like sounding intimidating."
"ok..." Nadroj said slowly, "Calm down."
Calliope rolled her eyes, "Now I remember why I never liked low brass before. I suppose Mij spoiled me... Anyhow, I don't really feel like telling you how to build a time machine. I'm having a bad day."
"Would you tell us how if we could make your day better?" Nadroj questioned as Yelsrap groaned.
"Now that's more like it!" Calliope grinned, "For starters, you could get me some nail polish, and then maybe a pack of those customized crayon boxes."
"Customized crayons?"
"Well, I can't give you instructions on how to build a time machine without customized crayons."
"Why not?!" complained Yelsrap.
"Because. It's complicated, and even if I told you, your low brass mind wouldn't comprehend it. Oh, to be a woodwind!," the muse sighed, "now if you would excuse me, I need to meet up with the Stacatto gang in less than an hour." Calliope dissapeared momentarily, and came back looking completely different.
"Huh?! Calliope?" The low brassers thought aloud.
"Dude, I'm not Calliope right now. I'm Glissando, member of the Stacatto gang. See you losers later."
With that, she dissapeared again, unable to be followed or traced by Yelsrap or Nadroj.
"I suppose we'd better get those crayons then," Nadroj said.
"And the finger nail polish," added Yelsrap.

the question was tough were to get customized crayons. one idea was to ask the muse but they liked having there heads. now contrey to popular beleif low brass players are quite smart, as long as there is no tequlia around,and thought and thought and thought.as they thought a cat was walking up the mt. oddly the cat was carring a box. apon further investgation they relized it was a craynor box. Nadroj thought hmmmmmmmmmm that cat has a box that contains crayons. if olny i had something distract the cat with. now he looked thourgh their baggage. he found a steak, some grass, and a bottle of tequlia. not knowing what cats in bandland ate he put it all out in front of the cat. the cat paused and now was thinking.to take or not to take that is the question.being a evil cat it desided to take all of the items. but it could not hold the box of crayors and the stolen items. the cat liking steak and tequilia and had never seen grass before and then left the crayors.

"I never knew cats liked steak and Tequila," Nadroj said in amasement.
"You learn something new everyday," Yelsrap said passively.
The two low brassers lingured around the moutain for awhile, and then decided to voyage into the village. They'd get the nail polish, and hopefully run into Calliope/Glissando so they could give her the items and leave. The time machine had to be built, and all this "ring around the rosey" business was simply wasting their time. Customized crayons indeed... humph!

The journey back down the mountain into the village was going to be nearly as complicated as the one up, for the only way down a mountain in Bandland is to hitch a ride on the Treble Train. Indeed, the Treble Train was run by the famous Staccato Gang who are know to cause all the "treble" (hah) in Bandland...
"A ride on the Treble train is not going to be the most pleasant experience..." , Yelsrap and Nadroj thought to themselves as they journeyed in the direction of the station. [or at least what they thought was the direction of the station] They had been walking for about an hour down the east side of the mountain before they realized that the Treble Train Station was nowhere to be found, for it was actually all the way on the west side of the mountain. Not only were they lost now, but they were violating the strict laws of Bandland. The only way you are allowed to descend is if you are aboard the Treble Train.... and, obviously, the two were not aboard the Treble Train. At that moment, the wind began to blow harder, and it began snowing snowflakes of frozen spit, as it normally does this time of the year at high altitudes in Bandland. Wearing only Hawaiian printed t-shirts and extremely short shorts, Yelsrap and Nadroj began shivering vigorously. Then, out of nowhere appeared a beautiful girl wearing an enchanting silver gown, playing enchanting music on her shiny silver flute. Her name was Princess Fermata... and she reigned over Flute Tree Forest. (An enchanted forest about three quarters of the way up the east side of the mountain, where shiney diamond-accented flutes grew on trees) She gave both a soft warm blanket and invited them to her glorious ice-castle to drink some Hot Vanilla....

"So... how you doin?" Nadroj said (in a voice freakishly similiar to Joey's from Friends).
Fermata gave him a cold stare, but replied, "Perfectly fine, Sir."
"Vanilla?!" Yelsrap questioned.
To this, Fermata warmed up, "Oh! It's such a marvolous drink... all the rage in band land and-"
"You added sugar, right?"
"Insolent fool!"
"Sorry..."
So the threesome journed on to Fermata's lovely (and solitary) ice-castle.
On the journey, Yelsrap just HAD to ask at least one more logic question, "Wouldn't hot vanilla melt your ice castle, Princess?"
This time, it was Yelsrap who got the cold stare. Eventually they reached the castle, and were led by Fermata into a cozy chamber where a whole bunch of strange charactors risided. It appeared to be tea-time, the boys noticed.
"'Ello!" said a young girl wearing a maid's outfit, "Might I serve you some tea?" It turned out that the girl wearing the maid's outfit was indeed a maid.
"Umm.... I'll take water," Yelsrap said while picking up a small tea-sandwich and looking at it skeptically.
JJ answered with his mouth full of crumpet, "I'll take tea- er, Hot Vanilla... as long as it has sugar. I like sugar!"
The maid set off on the task, and the low brassers surveyed the rest of the room. They were shocked to see a strawberry blonde haired girl (looking strikingly similiar to Calliope... *gasp!*) sitting on the lap of a dark haired man. The girl, Calliope disguised as Glisando... which you couldn't possibly have inferred, had on a dress wich was silver like Fermata's, but was fashioned in a different style. (details that you guys won't care about: it looked like Marilyn Monroe's white halter dress, only in silver, and had an intricate pattern of musical notes, rests, etc. on it. Her shoes were silver as well... stileto heels with straps that twisted up her legs.... hard to describe.) On her her headw as some sort of high school band hat... it reminded one of a bucket! Her plume seemed to be missing... but to the low brassers dismay, it was actually in the hand of the dark haried man, and he was tickling Glisando underneath her chin in a flirting mannor. The both of them were laughing ridiculously.
"Ok then..." Fermata said, "Sorry to interupt you two, even thought this is MY house and we need to discuss some VERY important matters...."
The two stopped flirting. "Oh, sorry, " The man said (his name was Thaniel), "to buisiness!"
"I hearby call this meeting of the Stacatto gang to order..." Fermata said once Nadroj had recieved his Hot Vanilla, and Yelsrap his water.
To Be Continued....

Nadroj and Yelsrap sat in the corner of the room sipping their beverages and casualy eavsdroping on the stacatto gang meeting. but they were doing no wrong for they too were members of the gang but, Calliope/Glissando did not know this (so much for being a muse). and because of her not knowing that they were in the gang she was revealing her plans to rid of the two of our three heros. she thought these plans would make no sense to low brass but at that very moment nadroj got his smellular phone out of his pocket and called Gordon back into the story. Gordon came crashing through the roof of the Fermata's ice castle causing a large amount of ice splinters to fall, fourtunetly no one got hit. he knew all about glissando's plan to kill his friends and stop him from winning back the girl he loved. he had to stop her but how?... HOW?...? To be contineud......

Edit: Nadroj assumed wrong, and the above was just some strange dream he imaged... Glissando actually was going to iniciate the two low brassers into the stacatto gang... she no intentions of killing anyone, as that was not her nature. Above all, Glissando was NOT a villain, thank you very much! (Side note: JJ! You're so mean! )

( o well the story must go on) what glissando had in mind for Nadroj and Yelsrap's iniciation was somthing out of an old martial arts movie. She had in her hand the nail polish that she sent our heros looking for. "hey you had the nail polish the whole time!" said Yelsrap. "Yes" said Glissando, " I like send people on piontless journeys. so for their iniciation they had to grab the bottle of polish out of her hand. "I'll go first" said Nadroj and easily snatched it out of her hand. "I don't know if i can do that" said Yelsrap, "I'm not a black belt" "Come on haven't you ever seen the movies, it's easy" so he tried to grab the nail polish but failed. he tried agian but Glissando was too fast. he tried agin and again but the bottle would not come out of her hand. Yelsrap got very tired of this but he soon saw a small silver piece of somthing under the bottle. He realized what it was and screamed "Hey! you duct taped the bottle to your hand thats why its not comming off!" there was a long pause ans then Nadroj burst out in laughter as well as everyone else in the ice castle. so after that humiliating task the low brassers were let in the meeting and soon got back to building the time machine.

They certainly could not get back to build the time machine just yet... for they we're still in Fermata's ice castle, halfway up Mt. Mij on the island of Bandland... intruding on a Staccato gang meeting!!!
At this time, Princess Fermata called an emergency confrence between all the officail S.G. members. After a few minutes of indecipherable grumbling, Yelsrap and Nadroj were called upon. Fermata then retrieved the extremely sharp qwarter note shaped sword that had been fastened to her diamond-studded belt and held it before the two foreigners. Their first thought was to run away in fear of their lives, but a feeling deep inside told them to stay...for there was nothing to fear. Yelsrap and Nadroj were about to be dubbed "Knotes" [of the Staccato Gang].
In a slightly intimidating and powerful... yet beautiful voice, as she tapped them once on the right shoulder, once on the left, and lastly on the head, Fermata announced the two newest members of the gang and gave them Bandnerdian names... Yelsrap became known as Clef and Nadroj as Allegretto. After the induction ceremony, they all toasted with tequila and ... there was much rejoicing...
