Author's Note: I got this idea one day, and now I'm putting it into action. Especially since my mind stopped working for "All the Things You Said." Let's get started.

GRADUATION DAY

Something bad is going to happen. I can feel it. Something isn't right. I'm just psyching myself out, its just nerves, because I'm graduating. Then, why does it feel like the worst day of my life?

"Acceptance, that is what we are all striving for. We will try to be accepted the rest of our lives, in a world that doesn't accept everyone. This is a sad and truthful fact. I am sure, however, that our class with press pass this and succeed at what we do. This marks the last day of our high school days, and the starting of the rest of our lives. After today, our lives will change in a very dramatic way."

Gabriella is giving her valedictorian speech. She's always so confident. She's always so care free. I wonder how she never worries about anything, how she always keeps her cool in stressful situations.

Wait, what's going on in the crowd. Why is that guy standing up, no one else is standing. He's not leaving. What's he pulling out of his coat? What is that? Why is he staring at me? Wait he's not staring at me, he's staring at….

"RYAN LOOK OUT!"

BANG

The air flew through my hair as I dove after the one I love. Gabriella's speech was right, the world doesn't accept us. I can't let our love cause this to happen.

I felt a sharp pain hit my stomach. It was fast and cold. I hit the ground hard. I can't stop shaking. My vision is blurring. My stomach is burning, I feel blood flowing out. Everyone is screaming. RYAN! Where's my Ryan. He's holding me, I feel his tears hitting me. I love him so much. My vision is fading away.

"I love you Ryan Evans."

"I love you too, Troy Bolton."

Everything went black and the pain began to fade away.

Author's Note: I know this is a very short chapter. I promise the future chapters will be much longer. This is just the prologue. It would be amazing if you could review, it truly inspires me to write more.
