You all know Mandy, right? The old cast member from So Random they "Said goodbye to on their last show"(quoted from Sketchy Beginnings). Well I've seen one or two stories with her coming back and thought I'd write my own! ;P
I have no clue where this is going, and I don't have it all written up so it could take awhile for me to update or not. More reviews=quicker update.
So if you like it, review and I'll give ya more! ;D

"Fine!"
"Fine!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Fine!"
"Fine," I huffed as Chad and I finished the vocal part of our fight in the cafeteria where no one, except the Mackenzie Falls and So Random cast, was watching or paying attention to us, for Chad and I fighting was almost as normal as breathing. Everyone was used to it.
So Chad and I finished with a stare off that neither of us showed signs of weakening or backing off until there was noise of Paparazzi, who never bother anyone here on most days. I ignored them but Chad moved his eyes from mine to the door and said, "Oh no…"
"Oh my GOSH!" Tawni gasped, looking outside also.
"It can't be…" Grady said.
"But why?" Tawni asked.
"Everyone! STAY CALM! Except Sonny might need to panic," Zora said, "And Nico."
"Help me," Nico muttered.
"What is it?" I asked, looking at the door.
"Gotta go," Chad muttered before literally running out of the cafeteria.
Then it opened and I would never have believed who walked through the door unless I hadn't seen it for myself.
I knew who she was. But why couldn't I remember her name? Then it came to me… I never actually had met her before but I knew who she was.
"I-it, it's-" I couldn't get the words out.
"Mandy!" Everyone on So Random said excitedly and stood up to greet her and they all started to talk at once. I stayed back.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on!" She said, "Didn't someone replace me?"
"Yes and she's terrible! Mandy! I never thought I'd say this to anyone- but I missed you!" Tawni cried. I took slow steps back.
"I missed you too, Tawni!" Mandy smiled, "Where is this girl who replaced me?"
"She's not that bad, Tawni," Nico sighed, then looked over at me, "Come on over, Sonny!"
"You know, I really have to go…check on…. Chad," I said nervously.
"Chad's a big boy, he can take care of himself, Sonny," Tawni said, somewhat rudely.
I blew my bangs out of my face and walked over somewhat cautiously. Why I was so nervous, I didn't know…
"So you're my replacement, huh?" Mandy asked, looking me up and down, "Well they could have hired worse. Hi, I'm Mandy!"
"I'm Sonny!" I smiled hugely, holding out my hand. She just looked at it, so I let it fall.
"Sonny, huh? Is that short for something?" she asked.
"Alison," I said.
That seemed to surprise a couple of my cast members. I forgot they really didn't know that because I never mentioned that.
"But I really am just called Sonny," I added quickly.
"Alright then," Mandy shrugged.
"So wanna go see the Prop House? We've gotten more Props in there!" Tawni said.
"Wait a sec, I coulda' sworn that you mentioned Chad a moment ago… Chad as in Chad Dylan Cooper right?" she asked.
"Yeah…" I muttered.
"You two going out?" she asked.
"What?" I laughed, "Me date him? Pffft no, of course not!"
"Good," She said and I stopped laughing, "Is there a problem?"
"No, of course not!" I said.
"Good," She said, "Does anyone know where he is?"
"I'd start at Mackenzie Falls," I shrugged.
"Alright," Mandy said, walking away.
And when she was gone, I let out a sigh and then the others started talking,
"I can't believe she's back!" Tawni said, happy.
"It was so unexpected!" Nico said.
"I think I might be dreaming," Grady said, "But I don't know if it's a good dream or not."
"I'll pinch you," Zora said.
"No thanks," Grady said.
"Wait, guys, she is just visiting, right?" I asked.
"I hope not!" Nico said, "Mandy was one of the best members of our cast!"
Tawni glared at Nico.
"I said one of them! As in, you're the first best one," he added quickly.
"Nice save," Grady said quietly.
"I'd… I'd still be here if she stayed, right?" I asked.
No one said anything.
"Right?" I asked, panicking.
"Uh…. Sure," Nico said. And then everyone left.
I sighed again and walked to my dressing room and I walked over to my dresser and started fixing my hair.
"Sonny…?" a voice whispered and I turned around and walked over to the actual dressing room part of the room and opened it.
"Chad? What are you doing in here?" I exclaimed.
He walked out and shut both doors in the room.
"Was that Mandy Krinoch?" he asked.
"Yeah, but why are you hiding?" I asked.
After making sure both doors were locked he said, "She's got an obsession with me and frankly, she scares me."
"Well I don't know how I feel about her either… The others seem to be enjoying the fact she's here, but… I don't know, I guess I'm just feeling paranoid… And Chad… do you know why Mandy left?" I asked, fiddling with my hands.
Chad ran a hand through his hair and sighed,
"It was awhile ago… but no one could forget... First of all, So Random was falling apart. It was a proud time for Mackenzie Falls I must say, but everyone knew So Random would break up at some point unless someone did something quickly. Everyone was fighting with each other and no one could do anything to stop it… It seems they're all friends now of course, because everyone liked Mandy. She was the second one to be on So Random.
Tawni was the first- but Mandy admired Tawni and followed and supported her. They were inseparable and they were starting to become the center of attention with everything a few months or so after Nico, Grady, and Zora were all there and they started to get jealous of Mandy and Tawni. Whenever fans would meet them all they wanted to do was talk to and get autographs from Mandy and Tawni.
When a So Random headline popped up somewhere it almost always mentioned Tawni and Mandy, Mandy and Tawni, they were everywhere So Random was mentioned. They still weren't as popular as Mackenzie Falls, of course, but still. Nico, Grady, and Zora teamed up and started to protest against Tawni and Mandy. They wanted to be more into the show and they weren't quiet about it. That was the worst fight I had ever seen, erm, heard of, kinda seen. And that's surprising because most of the catfights in Mackenzie Falls were pretty violent at times.
But Mandy…" Chad stopped and shook his head, "she got violent. I mean really violent. She sent Nico to the hospital!"
"What?" I gasped, "Sent him to the hospital? How come I never knew this? I've seen every single episode of So Random and I know everything about it, but I never knew that…"
"No one outside of the Studio knew and if they did, under Condor's orders, would be fired, or worse, if they said a word about it," Chad said.
"And you said she was obsessed with you?" I asked.
"Yes. She and I dated for about five months and then I decided it was time to break it off and that made her mad-oh tip for the future, don't tick her off! Anyway, she was mad and didn't stop harassing me until she got fired…. And when she did she e-mailed me, called me…. And that's why I changed my e-mail address and got a new phone every two months for the next year and a half… I stopped that awhile ago… But now she's back… and I'm a bit worried about what would happen," Chad finished.
"Wow… I never knew that…" I said.
"And don't tell anyone I said this or we'll both be in huge trouble!" Chad said and paused before saying shyly, "And Sonny I have to tell you something else..."
"What?" I asked, intrigued.
Chad opened his mouth to continue when there was a knock on the door.
I motioned for Chad to be quiet, "Yeah?" I asked before I said very quietly to Chad, "Go!"
"Where?" he mouthed.
"Why are the doors locked?" Tawni asked before I could say anything to Chad.
"Umm… I was getting dressed," I lied, walking over to my side of the room and cracking open the door, peeking out first. Luckily no one was there, so I motioned for Chad to go and he sighed once, looked at Tawni's door, and walked away. I shut that door then opened up the one on Tawni's side.
"You were getting dressed?" Tawni asked, looking me up and down.
"Uh, yeah," I said.
"But you're wearing the same thing," Mandy noted before Tawni could say, probably the same thing.
"Well, that's because I didn't liked what I had put on, so I just put my other clothes back on," I said.
"Is that so?" Mandy mused, looking around, "You haven't seen Chad around?"
"Not since this morning," I lied.
"Were you talking to someone in here?" she asked.
"No! I was getting dressed. Alone! Of course I wasn't talking to someone. And if anyone it was probably myself," I said.
"Were you?" Mandy asked meanly, "I heard someone's voice. We all did. And it wasn't yours. It was male. And plus," she walked over to where Chad was standing a moment ago, "It smells like cologne. The type that Chad always wore when I was here. It was his favorite. I should know, I got it for him."
I was shocked. She remembered how he smelled after all this time?
"Sonny, has Chad been avoiding me?" Mandy asked.
"Mandy, honestly I can't tell you," I said, "And that's all I'm going to say."
I looked at the clock, "We have to go rehearse my Check it Out Girl's sketch. You're welcome to watch, Mandy."
"No, actually, you're welcome to watch," Mandy said.
"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.
"Mr. Condor and Marshall both agreed to let me do this sketch. As long as I didn't lose my temper or hurt anyone," she muttered the last part.
"B-but this is my sketch… not just mine- me and Tawni's! I wrote it for her and I… this is our thing!" I stuttered.
"Not for the next week it isn't," Mandy said.
"But what am I supposed to do then?" I asked anyone who had an idea.
"Something spilled in the Prop House," Zora said.
"Whatever," I muttered, turning to walk away.
"Oh and I should mention before you go-" Mandy started and I stopped, "this half(your half) of the room is mine for the whole week."
I turned around, shock evident on my face which turned into anger, "So what? I should just leave here and not show my face for a whole week?" I spat.
"Pretty much," Mandy said.
"You know you really shouldn't talk to me anymore," I said, ticked off at Mandy now.
"Or what?" she asked, walking closer to me.
"Mandy, let's just go," Tawni said, stopping the fight.
"Fine," Mandy said, she and I having a stare off.
"Don't let the door hit you on the way out," I said, glaring at her, folding my arms.
She just walked past me, bumping my shoulder as she walked by. Then Nico, Grady, and Zora followed.
I glared at Tawni who stood there for a moment, looking at me, "I'm sorry, Sonny… It's just a week and Mandy's my best friend, for a lot longer than you have been. It's just one sketch, you-"
"Just don't speak to me. Just go," I said, quietly, yet mean.
I watched her as she walked past me.
Then after a moment of standing there, the anger melted into tears and I gathered up my things and left. And on my way out of the Studio, in the cafeteria, I bumped into Chad, who stopped me,
"Sonny, what's wrong?" he asked seriously.
"I don't want to talk," I said, trying to push out of his grasp.
"Tell me," Chad insisted.
"Make me," I whispered dangerously.
"Sonny, just tell me what's wrong, I can probably-"
"LET ME GO!" I screamed, shoving him off of me and walking out of the Studio only to be swarmed by Paparazzi and I gritted my teeth. Mandy put me in a very out-of-character, not so sunny mood. I didn't want to deal with these people.
CDC POV
"LET ME GO!" Sonny screeched, shoving me painfully in the chest and pushing me backwards before walking quickly out of the Studio.
I raised my eyebrows at her. Something was wrong and I think its name started with an 'M'.
I looked briefly at everyone in the cafeteria who was staring at me and walked out of the room and went to first, the Prop House-EMPTY, Sonny's dressing room- EMPTY, Stage-Bingo!
"Hey!" I shouted at Mandy who was on the set of the Check it Out Girl's sketch… why… I had a bad feeling.
"Ah… Finally the elusive Chad Dylan Cooper comes out of hiding…" Mandy said, walking over to me and looking me up and down with a satisfied look on her face.
"What did you do to Sonny?" I asked Mandy threateningly.
"Here we go," Nico sighed to Grady.
"Nothing," Mandy shrugged, looking at her script.
"Let me see that!" I said, snatching it from her and flipping through it until I saw the words: Check It Out Girl's 3 written by Sonny Munroe.
"Is Sonny in this sketch?" I asked.
"Not anymore," Mandy said, taking the sketch back.
"You're playing her part?" I asked.
"Mhmm," Mandy said.
"You know, not that I care or anything, I just know that this was probably important to Sonny… she enjoys doing these things with Tawni…" I said, "That's what she's blabbed about to me." I couldn't make it seem like I cared too much about Sonny.
"Why are you here if you don't care?" Tawni asked.
"Because, when Sonny's upset, everyone's upset. Seriously, she like has mood control powers… She's happy, so is everyone else, she's upset, so is everyone else…. She's ruining my day, okay? And so are you, Mandy!" I spat her name like it was an expletive.
"Don't you have some drama to film?" Mandy asked.
"Yeah, Chad, you're not welcome here!" Tawni said.
"Doesn't matter. I'm leaving anyway. Don't know why I bothered to even come. Not like I care about your stupid little comedy charade or why Sonny was crying," I said.
"She was crying?" Zora asked.
"And she screamed at me," I said, "Boy she's got a pair of lungs…How long are you on the show, Mandy?"
"A week," Mandy said, "for now," she added quietly to me.
I shook my head at her, "I have better things to do." And with a wave of my hand and a 'Chad out!' I was gone.
When I was away from them I sighed. Mandy was back in the Studio…
Tawni's POV
"So check it out! Yesterday I got my hair done, what do you think?" Mandy asked.
Her hair, and mine, wasn't fixed up how it would be. This was just a rehearsal to know the lines. The dress rehearsal would be tomorrow.
"Check it out I got mine done too!" I said. We both would take off our hats to reveal exact hair styles.
"Check it out… we got them done the same way!" Mandy said, looking at her script.
"Check it out that's kinda embarrassing…" I said.
"But check out who cares…" Mandy said and we looked around.
"No one!" We said in unison.
"Check out dance?" I asked.
"Check out dance!" Mandy agreed.
"Alright," I said, out of character, "Here's how you do the dance!" I showed her with some effort and she kinda got it, but also messed up several times.
Anyway, after that we continued and Mandy looked at her script once more.
Nico came up as his customer character, "Can you check out my head of lettuce?"
"Check out the lettuce head? Check out your head!" I said.
"Check out his face!" Mandy said.
"Check out his small nose," I said.
"His nose? Check out his…his…" she looked at the script, "his big ears!" Mandy said.
"His ears! Check out his-"
"I won't stand here and be insulted!" Nico yelled.
"Check out some anger management classes why don't you?" I asked.
"And check out a mirror!" Mandy said.
"You know what? I'm out of here!" he said, walking away.
Then Grady came up.
The script said Grady will have a paper bag over his head with holes for the eyes and mouth on it.
He put zit cream on the table.
"Check it out," I said, "someone actually has enough sense to put a bag over their head!"
"Eww… Check out his zit cream!" Mandy said, ignoring what I just said. She looked at her script.
"Check out his what?" I asked, looking at it.
I gasped my script said I'll reach over and grab the bag off his head to reveal large zits all over his face.
Mandy and I screamed in horror.
"Check it out! He's zitty!" I cried.
"Check out of here?" Mandy asked me.
"Check out of here!" I agreed, running of stage with her, screaming.
"And CUT!" Marshall yelled and everyone went on stage, "That was a great first rehearsal. Tawni, work on her with those lines and the dance. Mainly the dance… And Mandy, I just have to say what a pleasure it is that you stopped by!"
"Yeah I passed my anger management things and all that, so they said I could come back!" Mandy said.
"Well I'm glad you did! We all missed you," Marshall said.
"I didn't," I heard Nico mutter to Grady. I said nothing and noticed Mandy didn't hear them. Or didn't react if she did.
I sighed. It had felt… odd doing a Check it Out Girl's sketch without Sonny… it was kinda or thing… but I couldn't say anything to Mandy.
"You alright, Tawns?" Mandy asked me.
"Yeah I'm fine… just realised I'm about out of Cocoa Mocha Cocoa lipstick," I lied.
Mandy put an arm around my shoulder and smiled, "Let's go to our dressing room. Maybe some mirror time will cheer you up."
"Sure," I agreed with a quiet laugh.
SPOV
As soon as I had broken away from Chad and stepped outside, the Paparazzi swarmed.
And everyone had questions for me(a So Random Cast member) about Mandy( a former So Random cast member).
"One at a time!" I yelled over all the voices asking a million different questions.
"Is Mandy here to stay?" One asked.
"No. At least not that I'm aware," I answered.
"Have you been replaced?" another asked.
"No! Of course not!" I said quickly, "That's crazy! I'm one of the team!" I laughed nervously.
"What was Chad Dylan Cooper's reaction to Mandy?"
"Oh… he ran," I shrugged.
"Were you crying?" one of the same reporters asked.
I wiped my face subconsciously, "I don't see why that matters…"
"Ms. Munroe… Why aren't you still in the Studio rehearsing?" the same person who asked if I was crying and if I was replaced asked.
My nose crinkled, "Why am I not in the Studio, hmm?" I repeated, "I'm not in the Studio because I'm not in this next show. Mandy 'filled in' for me. In the sketch that I wrote! My 'Check it Out Girls' sketch that I was supposed to do with Tawni! Then she just waltz into Condor Studios one day and kicks me out! Well Mandy, all I have to say to you," I looked at the video cameras, "if you watch this, or read it some place in a magazine, then I hope you give other people better first impressions than the one you gave me.
And to everyone else, I have not been replaced, so don't worry… And I'm not the grudge holding type, so hopefully this will blow over and Mandy and I can become friends… That's all I have to say… excuse me."
People tried to ask more questions, but I shoved through them all and into my car and cranked up the volume to the radio when it came on after I started the car. The song was 'Monster' by Skillet.
"Mandy," I said to myself, pulling out of the drive way, "I may not be the grudge holding type, but you'll still have to earn my respect unless you want another enemy… sure this is only the first day I've known you and I shouldn't judge so harshly… but somehow from what Chad's told me and from what I've witnessed, you deserve to be my enemy. You haven't broken me yet… I'll be back. You won't replace me. You can have this one show… bask in the fame once more… but I'll get you next time… and you better not try anything… I'll get you…"
I realised I had a side to me I never discovered before… And I also realised how much I wished I'd known how wrong I was.
