PREQUEL TO "ALIVE"
(While Alive is a phanfiction, this story features no Phan (no Dan at all actually) and mostly original characters. While many of them are named after real people, none of the characters in this story are based on real personalities or circumstances at all. This is an entirely original, fictional work. [You don't have to ship Phan or be in any fandoms to enjoy this story. You can read it before, during, or after reading Alive and it won't really make a difference. You can read this and not Alive or Alive and not this. it doesn't really matter. However, if you do read this and Alive this will provide a lot of context for things mentioned in that fic.] Okay that was a lot of information lets get to the description.)

DESCRIPTION: Diana, Jamie, Sophie, PJ, Chris, and Phil are six best friends determined to make the best short film any thirteen-and-fourteen-year-olds have ever made.
