New York, NBA Championship semi-finals

The loudspeaker was booming, Number 14, Troy Bolton, pushes down the court, 4 seconds left on the clock, if their team captain makes this shot they win! 14 heads down the court- he shoots and… HE SCORES!

The crowd cheered wildly after 22-year-old Troy Bolton made the winning shot. Chad Danforth ran up to Troy, "Congrats Troy! The winning shot! Just like that championship in high school!" Chad slapped Troy on the back. Everyone lifted Troy up and cheered their victory. Their NBA team was now moving into the championships.

"Yeah thanks Chad! Let's go to the bar to celebrate!" Troy screamed, over all the noise of the cheering crowds and the cheering team.

"Call Sharpay and Ryan and tell them what happened!" Chad told Troy, while spinning a basketball on his finger, as they were leaving the gym, after all the people had left. (They didn't want to get caught in the crowd.)

"Chad. You need a girlfriend. Every time we win, you tell me to call Ryan and Sharpay." Troy stated, stealing the basketball from Chad. "Any you've been carrying this thing around everyday since high school. You're 22 years old, Chad!"

Chad stole the basketball back from Troy. "I need a girlfriend? Look at you! You spend all your spare time watching Law and Order re-runs! You should go on that one dating website." Chad suggested.

"I'm only going on some dating website if you go on it too." Troy said, getting into his BMW that was parked in the parking lot outside the stadium. "Anyway, to the bar?"

"You know it!" Chad cheered. "But…"

"Okay fine call Ryan and Sharpay. I'm sure Sharpay will drive us home. She works at the bar so she can just drive us home when her shift is over. I don't really understand why she works at a bar. She doesn't even like to drink." Troy said, handing his cell phone to Chad.

"Oh, you know, she's just trying to get that big acting break but needs to earn a little money on the side. Unlike Ryan, who completely gave up and became a used car salesman." Chad started to dial Ryan's cell.

"Chad, did you ever wonder what happened to Gabriella and Taylor?" Troy blurted out, without even thinking.

"You mean that girl who did the musical thing with you? And the one that I went out with?" Chad asked. "Yeah I remember them, but I don't really wonder what happened to them. They're probably Scientists or something by now."

"You're probably right." Troy turned up some rock music while Chad talked to Ryan. But for some reason, the only song that was going through his mind was

"Troy!" Chad waved his hand in front of Troy's face, trying to get Troy's attention. "Troy! Pay attention man!"

"Oh, sorry." Troy snapped back to reality. What's wrong with me?

"Ryan's happy for us, says Congrats. He's going to let Sharpay know that all three of us are coming." Chad said, as the pulled onto another street. "You O.K.?"

"Yeah." No. Troy said.

They arrived at the bar. Chad hopped out of the car, basketball in hand, while Troy slowly got out, something on his mind- and it wasn't the basketball game.

New Mexico, New Mexico University

"Alright class, have a good day, see you all tomorrow." 22-year-old Professor Montez packed all her papers together and stuffed them into a drawer at her desk. "I don't get paid enough for this." She was a bit young to be a teacher at a college, but her and her best friend Professor McHessey were both geniuses - and were recommended for teaching Chemistry at New Mexico University.

"Gabriella, you going to go home?" Taylor McHessey stuck her head through the doorway.

"Oh yes, sorry, I kind of Spaced out." Gabriella Montez walked over to the doorway, and walked down the hall next to Taylor.

"You alright Gabs?" Taylor asked, a bit concerned for Gabriella.

"Yeah! Why do you ask?" Gabriella was only half paying attention.

"Because you're only half paying attention to me and you left your purse in the classroom." Taylor pointed toward the classroom door.

"Oh Shit." Gabriella ran into the classroom, careful not to trip on her stiletto heels.

Gabriella ran back out into the hall where Taylor was waiting for her. "Alright spill. Something's on your mind." Taylor put her arm out in front of Gabriella to signal for her to stop. "What is it? I'm not letting you move until you tell me."

"Okay, you win." Gabriella sighed. "Have you ever thought about what happened to Troy and Chad? And even Sharpay and Ryan?"

"Not really. Is that's what's bothering you? Troy and Chad are probably famous basketball players, and Sharpay and Ryan probably act on Broadway." Taylor started to walk again, and Gabriella followed. "Wherever they are, I'm sure they're okay."

"I'm sure you're right." Gabriella said, walking out the front doors of the school to her car. "See you later."

"Good-bye Gabs." Taylor took of to her car, and pulled out of the near empty parking lot.

Gabriella got into her car and pulled out of the parking lot, set off to her apartment. The whole ride, she had that familiar song playing in her head.

She was lost in a daze until she heard a bunch of honking, looking around; she realized that she had run a red light. "Sorry!" she apologized, but nobody heard her, and thankfully, no cops saw. She was in no mood for a ticket.

She got to her apartment and unlocked the door. She walked in, threw her purse on the floor, kicked off her shoes and switched on the TV.

"Law and Order Re-runs! My favorite!" Gabriella got herself comfortable on the couch and watched the TV.
