9. Your character meets someone who doesn't like Disney. What do they do?

-Grandpa Pabbie, Frozen.

"Where are you off to in such a hurry?" was the first thing Ellie heard from her mother Friday morning as she raced downstairs and opened the fridge.

Her mom usually bought yogurt drinks for her and Danny to take to school.

She was eagerly searching for one, because today she really didn't feel like having a complete breakfast -something that her mom hated, so she had to at least have something-, she was too nervous.

"I'm going to school, mom." she said as she reached into the fridge and grabbed a peach-flavored yogurt.

Danny was seated around the table, looking sleepy and absentmindedly munching on a quesadilla.

"Isn't it a little bit too early?" she asked Ellie.

"Nope," Ellie answered as she swung her backpack over her shoulders "the cast list is going to be posted today, so I have to be there early before everyone crowds around it."

Ellie was honestly really nervous.

She wasn't sure if she was really eager to learn her role or if she didn't want to find out at all. She was afraid that whatever she saw was going to disappoint her greatly.

So many mixed feelings.

"Well, alright then. Drink your yogurt, though." her mom told her as Ellie walked up to her and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Wish me luck, bro!" she shouted at Danny as she opened the front door.

"Mh-hm..." was all she heard from him before she stepped outside and closed the door behind her.

She had never gotten to school this early in her life.

Like ever.

She walked quickly through the almost-empty hallways (she wasn't running but she wasn't exactly walking either).

There were hardly any people this early in the morning, and the few that were there still looked half-asleep.

And then a worrying thought crossed her mind: what if it was too early, and the cast list hadn't even been posted yet?

Well, she'd just wait in front of the auditorium billboard until it was posted.

She braced herself as she rounded the last corner, and to her immediate delight, she saw three white sheets of paper stapled to the billboard.

They were still too far away for her to see, so Ellie practically jogged towards them.

When she finally stood in front of them, she counted to three, and turned her gaze towards The Little Mermaid cast list.
