Both humans and animals were sitting in or lining up to the auditorium to the musical of the Wizard of Oz, a possible chance that Possum King can join Big Green because of their acting and singing skills. There are many people who would want the main roles of this play.
"Hope, maybe you should pick a different role." Kowloon said to the pink and white monkey.
Coincidently, Second Squad, Hope, and Sunshine were standing in line close to each other. The white wolf narrowed her eyes, but said with a smirk, "Why? Do you want to be Dorothy?" Sunshine let out a laugh.
"No! I rather be the scarecrow." Kowloon said.
"How fitting." Sunshine said with that same smirk still on her face.
"You kind of walked into that one." Alpha Girl said, unamused with this.
"Sunshine..." Hope quietly hissed, hating the fact that she's standing between the two so she have to hear the two argue.
"Shut up! Look, I just thought Hope would like to do something different besides the main role." Kowloon said, trying his best not to punch the wolf in the face.
"Because you know if Hope gets the role of Dorothy, then I'm Toto, which means that we have to work together on this musical." Sunshine said, smiling.
"...No. I mean, how are you so sure you'll get the role of Toto?"
"I work well with Hope, and I can sing, even though Toto doesn't sing in this musical. Just imagine if Mystique Sonia got the main role, who would be her Toto?"
"...Yaksha."
"Exactly. It's impossible to think of Sonia without her Yaksha as her sidekick."
"He's more of a servant if you ask me."
"Whatever. You just hate the thought of the both of us working together even for this one time because of what happened a long time ago."
"You haven't let that other event go either, Sunshine." Hope said, glancing back at the wolf.
The wolf only pouted in response. The pink and white monkey quietly groaned in frustration, then said, "Okay, that's it. We're changing our act." Sunshine's eyes widen as Hope grab the wolf's tail and drag her out of their sight.
"Nooo!" Sunshine howled, clawing at the ground. "It was going to be funny! We baked pie props! We asked Harper to be in this!"
"We can make this work." Hope nonchalantly said.
"...That went much better that I thought." Kowloon said, sounding a bit worried for a moment.
"Seriously, just because Hope's changing her act doesn't mean she wouldn't get the part. Musicals are practically her bread and butter." Alpha Girl said. "I highly doubt that it would be bad if you possibly work with Sunshine just this once. We're not even sure that if you'll get the part!"
"She literally tried to kill us."
"Okay, that's honestly a horrible thing, but... at least she only did that once and haven't attempted it again. That's pretty much the best thing an attempted murderer can do." Alpha Girl shrugged.
"Freezing to death is pretty much one of the worst thing to die of, and I was the only one punished by the commander because of those two and the wolf barely got punished herself for trying to murder us."
The people in front and behind them, including the other members of Second Squad, seemed to be trying to space themselves away from the two, hoping they won't hear more of this conversation.
"You also realize that was also because you lied to Hope just to prove a point and it horribly backfired!" Alpha Girl practically exclaimed. "So stop trying to make yourself the victim. It's been YEARS since then."
Kowloon just stayed quiet, not wanting to talk anymore. He hopes that this doesn't somehow backfires on him.
I think I just jinxed myself. Kowloon somewhat nervously thought. But hey... what can they do this time?
