Yamato & Sora - Shakespeare styles!

A/N: I'm studying Romeo and Juliet in class and thought, 'Hey! What could be anymore cliché than taking a Shakespeare script and basing it around Digimon!' Not that I'm calling Shakespeare's stuff cliché, I quite enjoy the bits I can understand

Chapter 1: The School Assignment

Yamato ran a hand through his blonde hair subconsciously, staring at the blackboard at the front of the class; it read, 'Shakespeare is FUN!'. A smirk crossed his lips, Yeah right... He looked around, catching Taichi's eye, his expression mimicking Yamato's thoughts. Their English teacher turned back to the class, trying to look enthusiastic,

"That's right! The topic for this part of the year is Shakespeare. I went to the liberty of picking Romeo and Juliet for you." There was a general groan from the male part of the class, someone muttering, "Mac Beth's a lot more interesting... more blood." The teacher continued, "It's easier to study and it's themes strongly reflect youth such as yourselves." He cleared his throat at that point, "Hem... anyway... each class is to act out the script they are assigned. You'll be picking your parts out of this hat!" He produced one from his desk, more general groans from the rest of the class. He then continued to go past each individual desk, holding out that hat to each student.

Yamato wore a sour look, like a majority of his classmates. He just didn't like acting in general... it wasn't cool. His thoughts were cut off as the hat was shoved under his nose. He gingerly reached in and pulled out a name, opening the piece of paper cautiously. He hoped it wasn't a big par-

His eyes widened, mouth gaping. The piece of paper read 'Romeo' in nice teacher writing,

"I... I can't have this part!" He protested... but the teacher had already moved on. Yamato huffed, hunching his shoulders and glaring at the piece of paper. Maybe if he stared at it enough he might get 'Passerby 5' or something... whatever small part they had.

"Awwww! I got the smelly Nurse!" He heard Mimi pout, lip sticking out, arms folded, "She better not be some boring old lady. "

Sora took her piece of paper. She wasn't too keen on the acting. She hated being under those intense stage lights... everyone watching... she shuddered, opening it. She raised a brow at the words, 'Juliet'. Well... she was dead or something for lots of it... er... right? She sighed, pocketing the piece of paper, watching the rest of the class. Most of them seemed peeved at their parts... or were they just peeved about this in general?

"Right! Now that's done! We can start rehearsing!" The teacher beamed, "Come grab a copy of 'Romeo and Juliet and we can begin!"

"What, are t-thou drawn among these heartless hinds? Turn thee Benv-volio, look upon thy death." Jyou stammered, trying to sound like a pissed off Tybalt, the polar opposite to him.

"I do but keep the peace. Put up thy sword, Or manage it to part these men with me."

"What, drawn and talk of peace? I hate the word-" Jyou was cut off by the bell, letting out a sigh of relief, frowning, "I can't do this... " He drpped his head, letting out a , "WAAGH!" as Tai slapped him on the back,

"Great job their old Tybbie!" He grinned at Jyou.

Jyou frowned again, "Why're you so happy? Did you get a small part?"

"Yup! I got Paris... apparently he has no lines."

Jyou let out another sigh.

"Lucky! I got Nurse!" Mimi frowned, sighing after Jyou, "I skipped to her lines... she's an old hag!" She squealed.

"At least you didn't get Juliet. " Sora sauntered over to the small, growing group, "She's, like, a main character. She smiled sheepishly, "That and I have to kiss someone in the class... "

Mimi grinned, "Ooh! I hope it isn't Tadashi! He's yuck!" She stuck out her tongue.

"I'm Romeo..." Yamato said, trying to look casual, as if he did stuff like this all the time. Mimi let out an,

"Ooooooh!" Giggling with her hands over her mouth, "Good luck with the liplock!"

Sora blushed a little, glancing over at Matt who avoided everyone's gaze. She hated to sound like Matt's unofficial fan club... but he was cute, you know, in a cool way- A thought hit her. Would she be safe? Playing Juliet with Yamato? Matt's fan club really scary when it came to Matt and other girls, even if it was only a romantic part in a play that didn't mean anything! They'd probably throw tomatoes at her or something while she was on-stage. She gulped.

Taichi's grin lessened slightly when he heard Yamato was playing Romeo with Sora. He glanced from him to her... she looked pretty worried about something... It wasn't fair! Why should those two get paired up together! He felt so sure that something would develop between him an Sora after their episode in the digital world... it was always him that ended up saving Sora... like when what's-his-face made a clone of Sora and her crest... he shook his head.
