KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI
The tour continues with our motorcycle band going
down I-35 South to Kansas City. But along I-70 West,
we spot a minivan also heading to Kansas City. In it
driving was Duncan Fletcher, teen magician & his
girlfriend, Hallie Richmond (YES; the characters from
My Date With The President's Daughter).
"Duncan," Hallie said, "Why don't you get into
politics like my former President Daddy did. Give up
the magic stuff, grow up!"
"Hallie, doing magic always makes me happy & is
my talent." said Duncan, "There's a Magician's
Convention in Kansas City. If I could put on a cool
show, I could win a job working @ Las Vegas. I can
see my name in lights, Teen Magician Duncan Fletcher!"
"I wish that magic wand was real so I could make
you disappear." quipped Hallie, "Or better yet, make
you look like dreamy Eric Hunter of The White Angels!"
"Hallie," Duncan snapped, "I started working out
& playing the snare drum in my magic act to be more
like Eric."
They arrived in Kansas City & stayed @ the Arrow
Royal Hotel, the same place the band was staying.
Hours later @ the indoor pool, Frank & Victoria
saw Eric already swimming in the pool as they got into
the hot tub & relaxed.
"Eric always has to show off." complained Frank,
"Him & his Guts!"
"Frank," reasoned Victoria, "Eric's one of the
reasons for the band's popularity."
When he got out of the pool, they saw him in swim
trunks (but it was Duncan!).
"He finally came to his senses." quipped Frank.
Duncan headed to the weight room when he heard
guitar-tympani music going on a boombox. He saw Eric
pumping iron to his song, "Eric's Power".
"You look just like me!" said Duncan as Eric
dropped the weights & turned off the boombox. They
stared @ each other!
"I'm Duncan Fletcher, teen magician. You must be
Eric Hunter."
Eric nodded.
"My girlfriend's crazy about you, why do you wear
Guts swim briefs to play the tympani?" he asked.
Eric explained, "I sit behind a set of drums &
the only time fans see me is when I play the tympani!
Girls like it & that's one reason why the band's
popular."
Eric thought of a cool idea,
"You're a magician, how about we pull some hocus
pocus & switch places. Fool people."
"No!" said Duncan, "I got a better idea." Duncan
whispered into Eric's ear his plan.
The next day, the children wanted to see the
magic shows @ The Magician's Convention. Everybody
went, except Eric. They saw various magicians doing
many magic tricks. Then they caught the act of Duncan
Fletcher, Teen Magician!
He appeared from a puff of smoke, then played a
snare drum roll. The band thought Eric's making a
fool of himself again. Duncan wore a black tuxedo.
Then Duncan did his magic act with assistance from
Hallie.
"For my next trick, I'll need a volunteer!" said
Duncan. Frank got up & told Joe he's going to teach
him a lesson. Frank's up on stage.
"What's your name?"
"You know who I am, moron!" said Frank softly,
"I'm getting Andy Roman to replace you!"
"Would you please cuff me?" asked Duncan handing
the handcuffs to Frank.
"This is for having us wear Guts on stage, show
off!" Frank said softly as he cuffed him. Then Duncan
concentrated & escaped from the handcuffs. The people
applauded. Frank went back to his seat as Hallie
brought out a disappearing cabinet.
"I shall ask my assistant to step in the
cabinet!" he said. Hallie got in & Duncan shut the
cabinet door.
"I'm about to turn my girlfriend into a man!"
Duncan played a snare drum roll, then grabbed his
wand, waved it! Then he opened the cabinet & out came
ERIC HUNTER in his white tuxedo! The band was stunned
that Will Friedle had two roles!
Eric opened the cabinet & out came Hallie!
After the show, Frank apologized to Duncan after
Eric's trick. The band's children thought he's a cool
magician. Then the owner of Carnival Hotel @ Las
Vegas offered Duncan a job to be a part of the
highlight teen entertainment @ the hotel. Hallie &
Duncan signed.
That night @ Bow Head Stadium, Matt & Phoebe Dee
rocked KC. 45 minutes later, Duncan Fletcher came out
on stage wearing a white tuxedo with top hat. Girls
screamed because they thought he was Eric. Duncan
took his hat off & pulled out a bunny! Hallie came by
& took the hat from Duncan. Then he pulled out a
magic wand.
"My name is Duncan Fletcher! I shall now attempt
to clone myself!"
Then he waved his magic wand chanting,
"Abracadabra, make a clone of me. Have my twin
play the tympani!"
Smoke bombs went off as Eric appeared playing a
tympani fanfare. Then Duncan went over to him &
played the same fanfare! Eric played another tympani
piece & Duncan played the same piece. Then they both
played powerful drum rolls as Duncan shouted,
"Ladies & gentlemen, my twin, Eric Hunter!"
Fans went nuts! Eric then said,
"And now, teen magician Duncan Fletcher will now
make hottie musicians appear!" (Eric plays tympani
drum roll as Duncan waved his wand), "Here they are,
The White Angels!"
A big puff of smoke happened & the band appeared
playing their instruments! Duncan & Hallie were
enjoying the concert backstage.
After the show in their dressing room, Duncan &
Hallie chilled out with the band. Hallie took a
picture of Duncan & Eric together. Eric even gave
Hallie a kiss. Eric grabbed Duncan's wand & said,
"If this thing's real, I'd turn my build into a
He-Man bod!"
"ERIC!" yelled the band.
Eric pointed the wand to Duncan's pants pocket.
Duncan got to his wallet & found a check for $20,000
from Eric.
"But how?" asked Duncan.
"Magician's secret." said Eric, "You & Hallie
should have something to start your new life in
Vegas."
