JANE: We'll pick you up at seven DARIA: O...

MEGAN: Them. JANE: The one with red hair is Daria's sister. MEGAN: Your kidding right? DARIA: Nope MEGAN: Oh my god! There is absolutely no freaking way you are so different. She is one of the biggest snobs I have ever met and you seem really nice! DARIA: It's sad but true. Scene Two: Mr. O'Neall's class. MR.O'NEALL: Ok class times up lets se what kinds of poetry we came up with. How about Megan. MEGAN: Umm ok. The wind whistles through the trees But to my pain it brings no ease I am battered I am bruised My heart and sole left feeling used Leaving me unhole Leaving me just a part As you crushed my sole And you broke my heart The screeching of the door Pain tearing through my core Slowly you crushed my spirit My heart beating madly cant you heart?

How did you let me go through it? Leaving me unhole Leaving me just a part As you stole my sole And you broke my heart Hallow, empty wrinkled and creased Silently I pray for release From this game you love to play Some day for your crimes you will pay (She sits down looking kinda embarrassed the class looks awed and someone claps) DARIA: That sounds like something Mystic Spiral would play JANE: She should talk to Trent she's good! MR.O'NEALL: *Very* good Megan that was a very *expressive* poem. MEGAN: Whatever. Scene Three: The cafeteria (Megan, Daria and Jane sitting at a table) DARIA: That poem was acutely good. JANE: Ya, you should really talk to my brother Trent he is in a band and it only has three or four songs MEGAN: Thanks how old is he? And what's the band called? JANE: twenty-one and Mystic Spiral MEGAN: How open-minded is he because I really don't think he'd like advice from a sixteen-year-old girl on music. JANE: Well if you give me some 'o' your stuff I can swing it past him but if you want you can meet him first. His band is playing tonight we can pick you up at seven. MEGAN: K I live beside the house with the corn growing in the front lawn. DARIA: I know where that is. Cut for Commercials clip of Megan and her books flying playing Sucks to be you by Prozac. Cut to commercials for Mentos/ Fabric softener/ some dumb doll/ and sugar crisp. Scene Four: In the Tank (Daria, Trent, Jessie and Jane wedged in the tank with all their stuff) DARIA: There it is! (Pan to a Dolly looking blue house) TRENT: Ok. (He pull's in the driveway Jane gets out and walks over to the door and rings the bell Megan opens the door) MEGAN: Hi JANE: Yo you ready? MEGAN: Yup.

MEGAN: Easy they are out if they come back before me they'll assume I am at some one's house if they don't they won't even know JANE: She is a smart one! Scene Five: McGrundy's Pub (Daria, Jane and Megan talking) MEGAN: So when is your brother's band on? JANE: They are next. So when did you learn to wright music? MEGAN: (talking incredibly fast) Well my dad has been playing guitar since I was little he taught me when I was 13 and I was in a band in Canada called Twilight I wrought our first song 'Bloodstained' two years ago and the poem I was one I was working on right before I left so I never finished it until today. DARIA: Wow JANE: That's impressive. MEGAN: I also dance. JANE: Do you paint? MEGAN: Nope I really suck in that department. DARIA: (innocently) Why Jane are you afraid of some competition? Cut to the stage Mystic Spiral are on. TRENT: Hi were Mystic Spiral but we might change our name JANE: So do you like her? DARIA: Who? JANE: Megan. DARIA: Ya she's o.k. She's nice I guess JANE: She's kinda perky but I have a feeling she wouldn't mix well with Brittany DARIA: Ya and Trent seems to really like her.

TRENT: So Daria how'd you meet Megan? DARIA: Well me and Jane were walking down the hall and she sorta dropped all her stuff so Jane helped her pick it all up. MEGAN: Droped is an under statmint the proper term would be flung her stuff down the hall. JANE: Ya and Mr. O'Neill made her read her poem infront of the class it was really good! TRENT: You wright? MEGAN: Yup, mostly songs, poems and the occasional short story. TRENT: You wright songs MEGAN: Ya actually the poem I read was a song I was working on but no one noticed they rarely do. TRENT: Can I read it? MEGAN: Shure TRENT: Do you always carry a pad and pen? MEGAN: Ya just incase I get an idea for a song. They come quickly and leave just as fast. Here < She rips off the piece of paper and hands it to him> My bands first song ever was wrighten on toilet paper and no I wasn't on the can at the time I was at a restaurant. TRENT: What was your band called? MEGAN: Twilight we actually put out a record but only ten copies were sold and I own 3 and the rest of the band own about 4. TRENT: That sucks! MEGAN: Ya I think we kinda came off as a girlie band. We aren't we had talent, well somewhat. TRENT: I'd love to hear it. MEGAN: Sure no prob. I'll send it through Jane. JANE: Umm, I was thinking Trent she could really help you with wrighting songs. TRENT: Sure if she wants to these lyrics are awsome. MEGAN: Sure if you want new songs right away you could probably use some of Twilight's songs I wrought them all so its ok you might like 'Bloodstains' it seams like a good song for you from what I can tell. DARIA: Well that sounds like a nice song! MEGAN: It's kinda vicious though. Scene Seven: The Lanes house Megan and Trent in Trent's room Megan sitting cross-legged on the bed Trent on the floor MEGAN: I brought over some songs you might like and My c.d. 'cause you said you wanted it. TRENT: Cool I'll listen to it later. What songs did you bring? MEGAN: Well I have 'Bloodstains', 'Death', 'Darkness' its one of my first, 'Betrayal' its kinda a chick song but since you wright I thought you could modify it and last but not least 'Ice Princess' and 'Stupid Little Piro Child (you burnt down the house)' that one is a little weird I was in a pissy mood after my brother almost burnt down my room. TRENT: Lets start with the one you just wrought. (Cut to various clips of them working on the songs) MEGAN: Well I should probably go sleep see ya (she starts walking towards the door) Oh and you can keep the c.d.! TRENT: Ya I haven't slept all day! Thanks for the c.d.! MEGAN: (VO) Your welcome. Scene Eight: Lunch at Lawndale High (Jane and Daria sitting at a table DARIA: so she came over to your house yesterday? JANE: Ya they were in Trent's room for the whole time. But the wrote two new ones and got music for the one she wrote in class. Trent was so happy he actually cleaned his room, well sort of. DARIA: Did you have his head checked for bumps? JANE: No he fell asleep after with her c.d. blaring she's actually pretty good. (Megan sits down at their table) MEGAN: Hi what did I miss? JANE: Not much just some plans for global domination MEGAN: Got a date set? Because Trent's playing at McGrundy's this Friday you comin? DARIA: Um, I'll be there.

TRENT: K MEGAN: (into the mic) Hi I'm Megan enjoy! MEGAN & TRENT SINGING IN PERFECT HARMONY. The wind whistles through the trees But to my pain it brings no ease I am battered I am bruised My heart and sole left feeling used Leaving me unholy Leaving me just a part As you crushed my sole And you broke my heart The screeching of the door Pain tearing through my core Slowly you crushed my spirit My heart beating madly cant you heart? Leaving me unhole Leaving me just a part As you stole my sloe And you broke my heart My sole is wary from the abuse My heart broken and of no use My love how could you do it? How did you let me go through it? Leaving me unhole Leaving me just a part As you stole my sole And you broke my heart Hallow, empty wrinkled and creased Silently I pray for release From this game you love to play Some day for your crimes you will pay (The crowed cheers and stuff) Trent grabs Megan's hands and kisses her on the cheek. (Cut to Daria and Jane) JANE: Daria you ok with this? DARIA: Ya they were made for each other Cut back to Megan and Trent on stage MEGAN: (Into the mic) thanks! (Quieter to Trent) You want to grab a burger later? TRENT: (still holding her hand) Sure. Roll end credits and Makeovers playing you were meant for me by Jewel AUTHORS NOTE: This is my first fan fic so be gentle. I thought adding another character would be interesting. I just wrote with no plot so I was surprised Trent ended up with Megan. The song Trent and Megan sing is my first good song I wrote. I hope I haven't offended anyone. I tried to keep everyone relatively in character. Question Comments Concerns e-mail me at LilMeg84@hotmail.com
