PART I

the plan unveils

"Isn't it sad? It irks me when two people who are in love with each other spend their time staring at each other instead of thinking of ways of admitting their feelings," Taylor told Chad, Jason, Kelsi, Ryan and Sharpay.

"Yeah, it is sad. Just look at them," Sharpay said. Troy and Gabriella were sitting on a bench just looking at each other, not saying a word.

"So, what are y'all doing for Halloween?" Ryan asked.

"What does Halloween have to do with Troy and Gabriella?" Sharpay asked, looking at her brother in a way that would make a zombie die of fright. Fortunately, Ryan wasn't a zombie, and even if he was, he was so used to that glare that it didn't faze him one bit.

"I don't know. I just wanna scare little kids with my 'Phantom of the Opera' outfit," Ryan said smiling.

"Ryan, you will not wear that outfit. You wanna scare little kids? Wear your bunny costume," Sharpay told him.

"Whatever. I'm gonna scare the little tykes into loving my outfit," Ryan replied.

"If you say so," Sharpay said.

All of a sudden, Chad started jumping up and down like a maniac. Taylor, Jason, Kelsi, Sharpay, and Ryan just stared at him.

"That's it! That's it!" Chad yelled.

"What's it?" Jason asked, confused. But this time, he wasn't the only one confused.

"We'll scare Troy and Gabriella into admitting their feelings!" Chad said, like it was obvious.

"Chad, that's not gonna work. What're we gonna do? Jump out and say 'BOO' and Gabriella be like 'I love you, Troy' and Troy will be like 'Me, too' and kissing?" Taylor.

"I agree with Taylor," Kelsi said.

"It's worth a try," Chad said.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Adorability to Math Decathlunatic," Chad said through a walkie-talkie.

"Who said that you could be Adorability? And I'm Math Decathlunatic?" Taylor asked through her walkie-talkie.

"The same person who said that Jason was Less-Known-Basketball-Player, Kelsi was The Playmaker, Sharpay was Icy, and Ryan was King Drama II. Anyway, I see the targets approaching. Get ready, Math Decathlunatic," Chad said.

"Chad, do you really think this gonna work?" Taylor asked.

"Just do it!" Chad yelled.

Taylor jumped in front of Troy and Gabriella wearing a gorilla mask.

"Boo," she said unenthusiastically.

"Hey, Tay. Why are you wearing a gorilla mask?" Gabriella asked.

"No reason," Taylor shrugged her shoulders and walked off. "Math Decathlunatic to Adorability."

"Yeah?"

"Told you it wasn't gonna work!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Icy and King Drama II to Adorability," Sharpay said into the walkie-talkie.

"What?" Chad asked.

"I don't think threatening Gabriella will scare her. We've become best friends. I can't scare her like I did before. Come to think of it, I really haven't scared her before," Sharpay told Chad.

"Just do it," Chad instructed.

Troy and Gabriella were walking past the auditorium. Sharpay and Ryan popped out in front of the two.

"Listen, Gabriella…," Sharpay paused, trying to think of something to say that sounds mean. "Um… I know… that you're… failing… English!" Sharpay started laughing maniacally.

"How'd you know that? English was never my best subject. Anyway, bye. Oh yeah, don't forget, we have to go the mall to get me some new clothes," Gabriella walking, trying to catch up with Troy.

"How'd it go?" Chad asked through the walkie-talkie.

"Horrible," Sharpay said, grabbing Sharpay's arm and pulling to class.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So they are still friends, because of some people's poor attempts at scaring them," Chad said, glaring at Taylor, Sharpay, and Ryan.

"I didn't wanna pull out the guns, but it's time for Operation: Room 62," Chad said, pulling out a folder that had 'Room 62' written across it.
