This fic was thought up when I was in Language on the 3rd to last week of
school. I got the idea when we were watching the Romeo and Juliet Play
scene [the movie's rated R.I don't think she wanted to show the rest of it
to a bunch of 8th graders.] Any ways, it starts out very innocent and
normal.and well, I'll let you read the rest for yourselves. Ja!

Written By: Neko Kage (with Some help of Seishi Sairensuno. but mostly me!)
[the scene is: private military highschool/collage in the "middle of nowhere." All characters mentioned (unless otherwise stated) are 18-19ish, okies? Good. now READ! ^^() hehe! Sry.]
Auditions for Romeo and Juliet will be held in the Auditorium in 10 minutes. And it is asked that the other pre-chosen cast members be there as well, Thank you. a woman's voice called out over the school intercom.
"Bye Seishi I'll talk to ya later! I'm gonna go check out the auditions for the play," Neko said as she and Duo walked toward the auditorium.
"Why? You're not in it are you?" Seishi inquired.
"No, but Q-man said he was speaking the intro and the final words of the play so we're gonna go watch, k?"
"Whatever. You two have fun.and Neko, be 'nice', don't yell at the others."
"Will do.er, try! Ja ne!" Neko said as she and Duo entered the auditorium, greeted by Quatre.
"Alright everyone! Take your seats! I'll begin calling you up onto the stage to begin the audition. Now, not all of you will fit my needs so don't get too upset if I drop you from the cast, all right? Now let's begin!" the tall, dark-haired drama teacher reported.
"Hey Duo," Neko said leaning over and whispering into Duo's ear, "doesn't he remind you of Quinze?"
"Yeah! Well sorta.okay you've done your part to scare me now.let's just watch the auditions," Duo said chuckling to himself.
"Okay," Neko said as she smiled and cuddled Duo's shoulder.
"Can I have you group into parts and then according to height? Thank you."
After about 5 minutes of chaos they sorted into their parts and sorted their height.
"May I have all of my Juliet's walk up onto the center of the stage? Yes...I see. Now may I have the Romeo's walk up there and stand next to them please? Uh huh, very well then." As Mr. Williamson went through the audition process with the 5 Romeo's and the 6 Juliet's, each speaking, or at least attempting to, their own parts and scenes, he began to drop names because of height, speech, and whatever else he could think of. The audition lasted a good hour and a half, in which Duo had fallen asleep twice. Neko shook Duo awake and announced to him that Quatre was going on next. He started to read his lines:
"Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;
Whole misadventured piteous overthrows
Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,
And the continuance of their parents' rage,
Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;
The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend."
"Very good! Well done, Mr. Winner! Now for the opening scene..." Mr. Williamson said applauding Quatre quite profoundly. After about an hour passed the actors began to pack up and leave. Mr. Williamson asked that the 2 Juliet's he chose stay back so he could talk with them about the lines.
"Now, Margret and Ashley, I would like to warn you that there are a lot of lines and only 2 weeks to memorize them! If one of you should become ill, the other should take her place okay?" he explained.
"Mr. Williamson? I was wondering...when are rehearsals?" Margret asked.
"Every day after school until 5 o'clock. Why? Is this a problem?"
"Actually, yes it is. I'm afraid I'll have to drop the part of Juliet because I have honors studies on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and ballet on Fridays."
"My, my! But you are perfect for the role as Juliet! Do you know any one else who wanted to tryout? The other girls were too tall or too short for the role so, naturally, I had to drop them."
Quatre over heard the conversation and thought that he would help out, "Mr. Williamson? I know someone who wouldn't mind taking Margret's place!"
~*~
Later that day, Neko and Duo were hanging out at the gym while Seishi was practicing her kickboxing on WuFei.
"ONNA!! Don't kick so hard!!"
"I can't help it if your sense of pain is WEAK!!"
"Are you calling me weak?!"
"No I'm just telling you that..." she paused and looked him in the eye, shrugged her shoulders and said, "Well.actually you fight like a GIRL!! No offence to any other girls in here..." then she gave him a right cross to the cheek and walked away.
"S'ok Seish...none taken," Duo yelled out snickering.
"Ha ha.very funny..." se remarked rolling her eyes. 'Sometimes he's too sarcastic, if there is such a thing.'
Then, as WuFei finally got up off the floor, Quatre walked in.
"Oh! Neko! I've been trying to find you all day! I have some good news to share with you!"
"I'm listening..."
"I volunteered you to be Juliet in the school play!"
"You did WHAT!?"
"Yep! One of the girls in the play couldn't make it to rehearsal so-"
Neko looked like she was about to explode, with anger or joy. No one could quite figure out, "Cool..."
~*~
The next day at school Mr. Williamson, running into Neko, introduces her to her 'Romeo'.
"Neko Kage, this it Hawkins Griffin."
"I'm known as Hawk by most people." he said as he flirtingly, flashed his light brown eyes at Neko.
"Anyways, he'll be playing Romeo in the play. Don't miss practice today!" he said walking off.
"I won't...don't you worry about me." Neko replied rolling her eyes.
"I'll enjoy working with you in the play, my Juliet." He said with a smirk. As he said this Duo walked up behind Neko and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"What's this about, 'my Juliet'?" he inquired in a little bit of an over protective tone.
"Duo this is Hawk. He's playing Romeo in the play. Hawk, this is my boyfriend, Duo Maxwell."
They exchanged icy glances then Hawk walked off to the cafeteria, followed by Duo with Neko at his side.
Once they finally sat down Duo had to ask Neko something, "Neko, is there anything I should worry about with this play?"
"Duo...come on. Is that jealousy I hear? It's gonna be alright...nothing's gonna happen. I love you. You know that," she said and then kissed him on the cheek.
Hawk who was watching and eves dropping smiled and continued to eat his lunch. He then slunk off to an empty corner of the room and pulled out a walkie-talkie.
"Bravo Leader this is Black Jack, do you copy? I'd like you to put in a call for an old friend who goes by the name 'Dark Knight'. Tell him I'd like to call in a favor..."
