High School Musical
Fixing What's Undone
This story is in first person view, so allow me to let you know about the main character in this.
Luke Collin
He's a big fan of Troy Bolton and admires everything that he did.
He's about 5' 8", Brown hair, Green eye's, and he always wear's red and white clothes (showing that he's a big wild cat fan)
You can see his personality in my bio
But for now let me set you up 5 years after Troy and Gabriella left High school.
"Jane, don't do this!"
"You said as much yourself, Luke. No one wants me around." Then she started walking toward the edge of the cliff.
"No, Jane. The person you met at the beginning of the year is far better then the person that said those cruel things. I'm not proud of that and I want to change that."
As I held out my hand, there was this sudden tremor and the cliff underneath her collapsed. "AAAAHHHHH!!!!"
"No, JANE!!"
Things was going nowhere but downhill at that point. I was changing into something other then what I intended. The girl of my dreams was plummeting to her death and I was being rejected from my other friends, just like Troy. Well, not the plummeting part.
Let me introduce myself, my name is Luke Collin. I always wanted to go to East High since I heard about what Troy and Gabbi did. And after being told his story, I had an yearning to be just like him.
How about I tell you my story from the beginning? I finally heard that we were moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico and I was all ecstatic. Hitting the road was easier then expected for I didn't have many friends and the friends I did have moved out before me. Moving from Virginia to New Mexico was a long trip, but it was well worth it. I couldn't wait till I went to school in East High!
"Mom, how long till I get to go to school?" I asked.
"Well, this is new." Mom got out of a box that she was unpacking. "You're not the usual type to ask that." Mom was amazing. Though she was 44, she looked 20 years younger then her age, and she didn't even use make-up. Her long Brown hair, green eye's, and near perfect figure made all the guys come after her, at least that's what she told me. Her personality was the sweetest you could get out of someone and there is never a dull moment with her around.
"I know, but one of my heros used to go to school there and I want to see what legacy he left behind."
"Taking and interest in history, son?" Dad asked, coming in from outside. He was awesome. Dad was 45 and, again, even he looked 20 years younger. I got most of my looks from him being tall and somewhat flexible. He wasn't the muscle buff, and neither was I, but when it came to lifting, nobody could do it better. Him and his blond hair and blue eye's may have been one of the reasons why Mom fell for him, but his fun-loving personality was a perfect match for her.
"No, Dad," I said, giggling, "it's just a boy that did some incredible things here went to school at East High."
Mom looked back over at me. "Oh, you mean that one young man you was always boasting about?"
"Troy."
"Oh yeah," Dad started thinking. "That was that boy that lead his school to two consecutive championships, right? In basketball?"
"That's right Dad. And I plan to do the same with the baseball team." I loved baseball, and still do. I was the star pitcher in my middle school that left no ball touched when it passed the plate.
"Well, good luck with that." For a minute, It felt like he was belittling me. "Not trying to make you feel small son, but after missing a year, the schools may have some fresher talent. So you may have competition."
"That's true, hun." Great, now both of my parents are against me.
It wasn't too long after when I was able to get in the car with my dad and head into that all famous school, East High! We were there pretty early, so only the teachers and a few students was there. As the principal was looking at my transcripts, a small smile appeared on his face.
"A sophomore? We don't have many of them to come over here."
"I have been only dreaming to come here, sir," I replied.
"Well, I suppose you heard about Troy Bolton?" The smile quickly left.
"Yes, sir."
"Well, since you're here early, maybe I could talk to you?"
"Okay, since you two are talking I'll head out and wait for you at the car." Dad was walking out the door, then turned back at me. "You be good now, you hear, Luke?"
"I will, Dad." As he left, my attention went right back to the principal.
"Anyway," he continued, "I know that you heard that the school had a set order in which things went in."
"Yes, sir. And I also know that Troy and Gabriella set it off the balance and it eventually turned into the better."
"You were well informed?"
"Were?" I had that knack of finding the word that makes all the difference.
"Yes, you see, after the five years that Bolton and miss Montez left the school seems to have gone back to how it was before." He seemed to be a bearer of bad news.
"And you don't like how it turned out?"
"No, mister Collin. Actually, things have gotton much worse."
"Worse? What do you mean by worse?" I didn't have that comfortable feeling anymore.
"The way it was before, students stayed on their side of the boundaries, but now they seem to look down on other groups."
"Look down? That can't be good."
"I know. I already had a few reports of students harassing others."
"Harassing!?! That's way out of hand!"
The principal jumped at my sudden outburst, but smiled after the fact. "You sound just like Troy Bolton."
"I do?" I only dreamed of hearing that!
"You have that same glow around you like he did," that really did it for me, "and I expect great things out of you, Luke."
"Don't worry, sir, I won't let you down!"
"You're planning on joining our baseball team, yes?" I looked at him for a moment. How did he know I loved baseball? "It says so on your papers."
"Oh, yes, yes I am."
"We need someone like you out there. Go knock them dead."
"Don't worry, sir. You can already put in a new color for our school."
"Really?"
"Red, white, and gold, sir!"
He laughed. "Okay, I'll make preparations." And with that I left.
As I left the office, more students flooded the halls. It seemed like I was to go through a pack of slime, it was so dense. After heading outside to the courtyard, I bumped into someone and knocked all of their books and papers on the ground. I felt completely embarrassed, what a way to make a first impression on a fellow student.
"Oh, I'm so sorry." I went right down to help pick up the papers.
There was a small laugh coming from the person. "It's okay, it happens." A girls voice? I couldn't help but look over at her and then I met eyes with an amazing young woman. First thing I noticed was beautiful blue eyes then a cute face with long straight black hair running down her back. Her skin was slightly tanned and she had a small figure on her that just radiated the word beauty. "Well, you seem new here. What's your name?"
I shook my head, snapping out of the trance and answered, "I'm Luke, Luke Collin."
She smiled. "Nice to meet you." She put out her hand. "I'm Jane Corral." I wasted no time in shaking her hand. "So, are you new?"
"Yes, yes I am." Jane seemed to laugh as I said that. "I just talked to the principal not to long ago."
"Really?" She stood back up and I quickly followed. That's when I realized that she was about as tall as me. "He's a nice guy and very easy to talk to."
"Well, that's true." I couldn't help but scratch the back of my head.
"By the way," she put her hands behind her back, books and all, "the sophomores are having a karaoke party at ski club house further down the road. Do you want to come?"
I was getting all confused. "Whoa, hold on, how did you know I was a sophomore? And, better yet, why are you asking a new kid?"
"I let the new kids in on stuff like this." Suddenly she got a serious face. "It's only the ones who have been here a while and are complete jerks that I leave out."
"Wow, I get your point."
"Just don't poke yourself." Then she walked away laughing.
'I can't believe it, I made a friend already? Well this is new,' I thought. Suddenly, I got a sharp slap on the back of the head. "HEY! WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD-" I cut myself short as I realized who it was. "Jake Wolfen?!?"
Jake Wolfen was one of my best friends in Virginia. He's exactly my height with a bald cut. His skin is dark brown with brown eyes to match. He immediately strikes you as a laid back person and that's exactly what he is. He's built about the same way as I am, but a little more muscular. "The one and only, bro."
"When did you get here? I thought you went to Maine two years ago?"
"I did, but we changed our minds and headed here last year."
'Okay, I made one friend and found another,' I thought with a smile on my face. 'But, wait, if he was here last year,' "Hey, Jake, I heard that people have been harassed lately. Heard of it?"
"Yes I have, but I never considered it my business." He always refers to that.
"Well, it's your school too you know."
Jake got that 'you got me' look in his eye. "True. Maybe I should let someone know what I see."
I had to smile. "Okay, but what was that slap for?" I started rubbing the point of impact. "It kinda hurt."
"Well, it was for two things." He got his hand out and started counting. "One, I had to get your attention some how, and two, you just spoke with the sophomore president."
"Jane?" I looked back at the direction Jane left.
"Yeah, and, if I heard correctly, you were just invited to a party." I blushed a little bit. "Ah, so I did hear right."
"Yeah, but she does that with all the new students."
Jake seemed to get confused. "Huh? Where did you hear that?"
"She said it."
"She did? Hahahahahaha!"
"What?"
"She has a crush on you, man."
"What makes you say that?"
"She only lets people she trusts, dude." Really? Hearing that made me blush harder. Thankfully, Dad was honking his horn to pull my attention away. "Is that your dad?"
"Yeah and I got to get going."
Jake looked at his watch. "Same here, classes start soon."
"Alright, see ya!" And I ran off to the car.
Not a bad start if I say so myself. Better then my others. I hope you liked it. Wait, better yet, please tell me if you did. I look forward to it!
