Unit 18 Striving SOS
第18單元 求救訊號
Ebony Marshal was in the habit of going off with friends afterschool and getting into trouble. Sometimes they would drink, steal from stores or pick on other kids. She was out of control and her parents didn't know how to help her.

There was a program at her high school called SOS but Ebony held no real interest in the club, she thought it was lame to participate in after school activities. However, one day she saw a sign that read, "Want to be in a Rock Band? Come to the SOS club." That caught Ebony's attention.
