Curtain Call

Chapter 3

  Me and Liz were wondering the halls. We came to a quiet long hallway. Looking into it was pitch black and we decided to go exploring. We started walking into the hallway but we heard something from behind us.

"What was that?!"

Liz quickly turned around.

"It's nothing, you're just freaking yourself out. Come on."

I tried calming her down.

"Why is the hallway this dark anyway? School JUST ended."

Liz questioned. I stopped in my tracks and thought for a moment.

That is a very good question....

I got a sense that we weren't supposed to be there. We heard someone or someTHING walking behind us.

"BOO!"

We both jumped.

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU ALBERT?!"

Liz screamed at him, he was laughing on the floor.

"It was too good to pass up!"

Albert laughed.

"Okay I'm done I'm walking back."

I started walking away and Albert and Liz followed. We walked to the cafeteria vending machines. Hours ticked by and we got some snacks and we were just goofing around waiting for stage crew to be done. It started getting darker and it was 5pm.

"What's taking them so long? I knew it would take long but not THIS long."

Liz complained.

"We should probably head back, They should be done soon."

Albert suggested. We agreed and decided to walk back. Albert and Liz were walking in front of me. I saw something quickly move out of the corner of my eye. I stopped and looked around but there was nothing. I just brushed it off and walked back to the auditorium.

    We were just assigning props and which side of the stage we were going to be placed. It was pretty boring and my feet were already hurting. I looked at the time and it was exactly 5:00. I sighed.

6 more hours...

I have no idea how Jenna and Liz can survive with these long practices. Clara was silent the whole time and I felt bad for her. I was thinking maybe I could have them talk and at least become friends.

"Alright... so we all know what props were moving?"

Ophelia asked.

"Every name that I call will be on my side on stage left, and whoever names I don't call will be on stage right with Ophelia."

Theo spoke. Stage right had a big garage door leading into the hallway and it was the main area people would go and that's where we were at. Stage left was smaller and was more crowded with props, it had a normal door leading in and out into the hallway. Then of course we have the giant stage and the audience area, there was 2 doors on the side of the auditorium and about 4 doors at the back and there were 3 sections of seats. 1 in the middle and 2 on the side. It was a pretty nice and big auditorium.

"Iris, Clara, and Carter will be on my side in stage left."

Theo said.

"Kai and Leo will be with me, on stage right"

Ophelia added.

Clara pov

  I sighed as I heard I was going to be stuck with Carter and Iris. I tried to look on the bright side.
