5. Auditions With Austin? Meeting With Ollivanfer!

~McKinlee's P.O.V.~

The day has finally come.

My audition day.

After many classes, and many nauseating hours competing with that bitch from my classes, who's name I found out is Amanda, it is finally time for me to audition. I'm. So. Nervous.

"Hello, Alicia. Umm, you said 7th floor is the auditorium?" I asked, making sure.

"Yes, ma'am, that is correct." She smiled, giving me a small thumbs up.

I returned the smile and slowly made my way towards the elevator. Taking slow, deep breaths I calmed my nerves down.

"It's now or never." I sighed, pushing open the door that read Auditorium.

I took a seat with the other hopefuls and waited.

"Ok. Hello. I'm Jesse. Now it is nearly 2 o'clock and the auditions are about to take place in this room. So I would kindly ask for all of you to file out into the sitting room right outside and wait to be called to audition. I wish the best of luck for all of you. And thank you for coming." Explained a tall, brown haired male.

I filed into the sitting room and waited my turn. Name after name was called.

"Angelina Bell." "Katie Cole." "Dean Finnegan." "Marietta Kael." "Jamie Macmillan." And then... "McKinlee Maison."

I inhaled and then exhaled, standing up and quickly making my way down to the stage.

"Hello, Miss Maison." Said one of the three spectators in front of me.

"Hi." I stumbled.

"OK. So you will act out one of the scenes you have been given to look over. Whichever one you are most confident in performing. Please if the scene is longer than 5-7 minutes, just take a small portion of the scene to perform. When your 7 minutes is up a bell will ring signaling for you to stop." Informed, the middle, female spectator.

I nodded, to show that I understood my instructions.

"Which scene will you be performing?" Asked the third, male spectator.

"Scene 57." I stated, confidently, receiving a few brow raises and a small grin of pleasure.

"Excellent! I've been waiting on someone to do this particular scene." Grinned the female judge/spectator. I just smiled.

"Ok. Austin!" Called someone back stage. You're on!

"This is Austin. He's going to be the male in the scene you're about to perform." Stated the first male judge. I nodded again and turned to him.

"Let's start here." I told Austin and he smiled and nodded.

Closing my eyes for a few seconds, I drifted off into the mode of determination and confidence.

"But Jenny! What do you mean? Are they... dead?" Gasped Austin.

"Yes..." I croaked. "I... don't believe it." He murmured, shutting his eyes.

"I walked into the room to see Her standing over them. I called for help. But no one came. And when the neighbors showed up they thought it was I who did it! But... They should know that I would never kill my parents!" I cried beginning to cry.

"Oh. Jenny... I promise. I will not allow them to keep you locked up in this dreadful, jail cell!"

"But there's no proof that she killed them and not me. They won't believe you. I'll be locked in here forever!" I cried even harder continuing to think of things that would make me cry.
