I do not own the characters of High School Musical. I just own the story! Just to be clear!
East High Murder Chapter 1
It was a bright sunny day at East High, and the students were rushing into the school to make it to their homeroom classes. The basketball team had just won the championship, and the students are beginning to settle down after the exciting win. It even seemed as if all of the students were actually getting along.
"Hey great game Troy!" someone shouted down the hall.
"Thanks!" Troy shouted back smiling.
"Troy!" Chad shouted approaching his friend. "We are the champions."
"I know Chad." said Troy laughing. "I heard you went out with Tayler."
"Yeah! You know for being like one of the smartest girls in school, shes a lot of fun." said Chad.
"Thanks!" came a voice behind him. Tayler and Gabriella approached both of them smiling.
"Hey!" Troy said to Gabriella as he kissed her.
"Please! Take it somewhere else!" said Sharpay as she walked by followed by Ryan. Troy just shook his head.
"So how does it feel to be champions?" said Gabriella to both Troy and Chad.
"Great, but not as great as you and Troy getting the leads in the play." said Chad.
"Which reminds me, we need to get to the theatre. Mrs. Darbus said something about a leak in her room so homeroom will be there." said Tayler hurrying them along.
"Have you ever been late to a class?" asked Chad.
"No! I don't don't intend to start now." said Tayler. They all followed her to the theatre where most of the class had already gathered.
"Alright can I have everyone sit in the first two rows please." said Mrs. Darbus as the students sat down. "Alright first I would like to congratulate Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez on getting the lead roles of Arnold and Minnie in the school play." Most of the students clapped Sharpay just rolled her eyes and gave Ryan an evil look when she noticed that he too was clapping. "Second, I am sorry for the inconvinience of having to have class in the theare, but a pipe burst in my classroom so Im afraid we will have to deal with this until it is fixed." Mrs. Darbus began her lecture and the rest of the students attempted to take notes. Just then the principle walked in.
"Im sorry to interupt, can I get out through the back doors here. I left the lights on and all the other doors Ive tried to get out from are locked." he said walking down the isles.
"How strange!" said Mrs. Darbus moving behind the curtains to check the doors. They could here her pull on the doors and then a banging. She returned from behind the curtain. "Im afraid these are locked as well."
"Great! I guess Ill have to call the custodian to see if he will be avle to pry any of them open." he said walking out of the theatre. Mrs. Darbus contenued her lecture but Troy, Gabriella, Chad, and Tayler talked amongst each other.
"Weird! All the doors in the school are locked." said Chad.
"So were like locked in here!" said Tayler.
"Great! Were all locked inside the school. Thats like my worst nightmare." said Chad.
"I thought your worst nightmare was. . ." began Troy.
"I don't think that they really need to know about that." said Chad embaressed. They all laughed.
"Excuse me?" said Mrs. Darbus annoyed. "Do I need to see you all in detention?"
"No!" They all said together.
"Than I suggest you pay attention." replied Mrs. Darbus going on with her lecture. When it seemed like she wasn't paying attention, they contenued their conversation.
"So why do you think all the doors are locked?" said Gabriella.
"I bet the janitors are rebeling against the school." said Chad.
"Where do you come up with this stuff." said Tayler.
"You have a better explaination?"
"Not really."
"Than rebeling janitors it is."
"Ok! Chad, Tayler, Gabriella, and Troy I would like to see you after class." said Mrs. Darbus angerly. There was a loud scream from the hallway and everyone turned around to see a brown haired girl running into the theatre.
"Mrs. Darbus you have to come out here." said the girl paniced. Mrs Darbus quickly left the stage and followed the girl into the hallway. The rest of the class also followed. When they got into the hallway Sharpay screamed. Their was a man in the middle of the hallway hung by the neck and dangleing from the ceiling.
"Oh my goodness." said Mrs. Darbus "Everyone back up." she said pushing the students away from the dead body.
"Who would do this?" asked Ryan.
"All the doors in the building are locked. That means whoever did this is still in here." said Troy. All the students looked at each other than back to Troy.
