With a reckless click, the download began. The progress bar crawled like a tired snail. Leo spent the wait practicing his embouchure on a pencil, imagining the glory of nailing the high notes on The Stars and Stripes Forever . He could almost taste the virtual baboons. "Download Complete."
"One more song," a voice whispered from the PC's cooling fan. "Get an 'S' Rank, or you'll be the one sliding for eternity."
Leo double-clicked the icon. Instead of the cheerful, slightly off-key brass fanfare he expected, the speakers emitted a sound like a wet tuba falling down a flight of stairs. The screen didn't show the main menu; it showed a hyper-realistic, 3D-rendered trombone that seemed to be sweating.
The neon lights of the "FreeGamez-NoVirus-Real.exe" download button flickered on Leo’s monitor, casting a sickly green glow over his bedroom.

Leo grabbed the mouse. His fingers moved with the desperation of a man possessed. He dodged the "Nasty" notes, he channeled the power of a thousand middle-school band students, and he hit the final "Perfect" toot just as the sun began to peek through his blinds.
