RuPurge

chapter three: I'm Ready

There's an assembly every Friday before the annual Purge the following Saturday. At 1:00 pm everyone is called down to the school auditorium so Mr. Charles and Mrs. Visage can have their assembly. For some reason the girls call Mr. Charles Rupaul and Mrs. Visage just Visage.

The eight queens take a seat in the middle section of the auditorium in the far back. Taking up one whole row.

"Everyone take a seat!" Mr. Charles demands into his microphone on stage.

"Now, I know the annual Purge starts tomorrow night. We know we cannot stop you from purging. Mrs. Visage and I just want to tell you to be safe going purging or not..."

While Mr. Charles is in the middle speaking Willam puts his left hand up making it look like a mouth talking while she rolls her eyes, mocking Mr. Charles. The girls all snicker quietly making sure the two can't hear them.

"...Thank you, I will now let Mrs. Visage, your Vice Principal speak." Everyone starts to clap as Mr. Charles hands the microphone over to his fellow co-worker.

"This school is all about safe zones. We want a safe school environment for the children of Rupaul's School for Queens. We want everyone to be safe and secure during the annual Purge. We care about each and every student. So to me it's very important if anyone gets hurt. I hope you all feel the same way about me and Mr. Charles."

   Violet rolls her eyes and fakes yawn, getting a few giggles from people.

Willam leans over and whispers to the girls, "We care so much about you Rupaul!" In a sarcastic, raspy voice.

At precisely five on Saturday Fame sits down at her makeup vanity staring at the mirror. She lets out a grunt, "I...can do this." She picks up a makeup brush and gets to work.

   At Willam's house she's just finishing getting into drag. All eight queens get ready for tonight. Riddled with anxiety, but Fame is the most nervous. The only one not scared is Willam, she's fearless.

   Everyone thinks they're gonna die tonight. But Willam promised that wasn't gonna happen, not on her watch. Willam calls each individual girl and they all get the same message from Willam. "I'm ready."

   The seven girls exactly know what that means. They sneak out of their house when their parents aren't looking and head over to Willam's.

   Hey guys, so a few days ago I accidentally published this while I was still working on it, a few of you saw, sorry for the confusion.
