Drama Club

Chapter 2 – Something's Wrong With These Girls!

"Drama… Club?" Hilary asked, expressionless. "Acting… right?" she added. It did not sound so bad but it has never been her kind of thing to be even interested in it.

"Yeah," Yumeko said, nodding. "I told you it's not hard."

Hilary pouted, "But…"

Amaya smirked, "If you refuse, then I'll shout outside and tell everyone on this island…"

"Okay, okay!" Hilary agreed, waving her arms. "I'll join! So please don't tell anyone." She sighed, looking at the ground and thought to herself, Acting…? Hm, I don't know, but I will have to do it.

April smiled, noticing her worried face. "Hilary…"

"Yes?" Hilary asked, quickly lifting her head. "Is there something you also want me to do so you won't tell anyone?"

"That's not it," April said, lightly chucking. "I wanted to let you know that acting is fun. You get to be whomever you want when you're on stage. I know Amaya forced you but I hope at the very least you'll enjoy it. Just try it."

Amaya looked at April with a little pout. "Please don't make me look like a bad guy," she said.

Hilary smiled, "It's alright, anything would do really."

"You can just join for a year," Yumeko said, pointing her first finger up. "If you end up not to liking it, you can leave after that. Sounds fair, Amaya?"

She pouted again. "Yes," she mumbled. She went and grab Hilary's pink suitcase and smiled. "I'll show you your room!"

"Okay," Hilary said, carrying her two green bags. The two girls ran pass the three girls. Hilary realized that Terra had not say a single thing when she got here. I wonder if she's mute… she thought, but shrugged it off.

Amaya ran all the way up the stairs and stopped after running pass a couple of doors. "Tada!" she sung, slamming the door open to a bedroom. "Here we are!"

She ran so fast, Hilary had just gotten on the second floor. She walked up to the black haired girl and walked into the room. Everything was empty, except for a bed, desk with a little lamp, and a small table. The closest is right to her left side of the white wall. There were two windows on one wall and a brown bulletin board on the right side of the wall. A simple room.

Hilary threw her belongings on the table and dragged her suitcase in. "Thanks, um… Amaya, right?" she nervously smiled.

She nodded. "Yep! Oh, and when you're done unpacking, go and talk to April. She has your school uniform in her bedroom."

"Okay," she said. "…What year are you in, Amaya?" she asked, curious.

"I'm a first year too," she replied with a grin. "And if you also want to know, Yumeko and Terra are second years. April's a third year. Yay, we get to spend at least a year together! We only have five rooms here so no first year students will be coming in this house next year! Great, eh?"

"Y-Yeah," Hilary nodded. "So, who's in this Drama Club besides me?"

Amaya pointed to herself. "Me and the girls here. Our president is a guy, a fourth year, and his name is Lance. April's the vice president by the way."

"Wow, only one guy?" she asked, a bit depress. "You guys really were low on numbers."

"Yeah," she nodded, depress also. "If I find out the other student who was also late, I'm going to make him or her join too! Hahahahaha!"

Hilary knew who the student was. His name was Tyson. If she was going down, she wanted to take him with her at least. "I bumped into that student earlier," Hilary smiled. "A guy."

"Really?!" Amaya jumped to her. "You must tell me!"

"If I remember correctly, his name was Tyson," Hilary said, taking a step back from her sudden move.

"Tyson, eh?" she smirked. "I'll haunt him down tomorrow at the gathering. Hehehehehe."

Hilary nervously smiled. "G…Good luck."

Amaya patted on her shoulder. "I don't need luck," she told her, half smirking.

Hilary smiled, wondering what made Amaya so determined in finding members when she just met the upperclassmen here. Maybe she knew one of the girls or something.

After Amaya left, Hilary had unpacked everything in her room and she went to find April. Walking down the stairs, she found Terra in the living reading a book. She was sitting up straight on a sofa and she held the book to cover her face. Hilary looked around to see if any of the other girls were around and looked at Terra. "Um, do you know where April went?" she asked.

Terra did not answer and flipped through the pages.

Hilary walked closer to her. "Terra? Do you know where April went?" she asked again, thinking she may not have heard her the first time. Terra's still silent and Hilary pouted. "Hey, at least look up, even you're mute!" she grabbed the book away from her. "You're not deaf, right?"

"…" Terra glanced up at her. "Yumeko's over there… go ask her." She pointed in the kitchen.

"But I was talking to you," Hilary said, throwing the book on the sofa. "Do you have a problem with me?"

The dark red haired girl peaked into the living room. She was sitting on a chair and leaning backwards. Terra took her book and opened it. "I'm sorry… the doctor said that I shouldn't use my voice too much because if I do, I'll lose it," Terra explained.

"Oh…" Hilary started to feel guilty. "I'm sorry. I didn't know."

"She's lying," Yumeko said.

Hilary looked at the dark red haired girl. "Huh?"

Yumeko smiled, "Terra likes being the quiet girl and usually she would use that excuse to get strangers away from her."

Hilary looked back at Terra, who was snickering behind the book. She lightly glared at the dark brown haired girl and walked into the kitchen. "So then, do you know where April is?" she asked Yumeko.

"I don't know," she shrugged. "But I think I remember seeing her walking out to get flyers ready for tomorrow. What's up?"

"Amaya told me to ask her for my school uniform," Hilary said.

"Oh, I'll get that for you," Yumeko smiled, standing up from the chair. On the table were three voodoo rag dolls in black dresses.

Sweats appeared on Hilary's face when she looked at the dolls, thinking if they're really voodoo dolls. Yumeko had already left the kitchen and heading up the stairs she Hilary hurried after her. "Is it really alright to enter her room?" she asked.

"Yeah," Yumeko said with a smile. "I'm just grabbing your uniform. I'm not going to knock anything over in April's room."

When they reached on the second floor, Yumeko opened the door that is the nearest to the stairs and walked in. Hilary took a look around and a sweat dropped. There were a lot of horror posters on one side of the wall. April's room is nice and neat, but the posters were a different story. What's up with these girls? Hilary thought, shivering. The quiet girl, the dolls, and the posters. Even Amaya is weird in her own way.

"Here we go," Yumeko grabbed the uniform. It was in a clear plastic bag on April's bed. She gave Hilary the uniform and notices her expression. "Are you feeling well?" she asked.

"Y-Yes," Hilary grabbed the uniform, but it slipped and fell on the ground. "Opps!" she was trying hard not to bring her eyes up. "Thank you!" Hilary said, taking her uniform and leaving the room.

After that, Hilary spent the rest of her day in her room.

The next day, Hilary woke up upon hearing loud noises of the girls from downstairs. She crawled out of her bed and started to dress up for school.

She walked out of her room and closed it. Her school uniform is like a sailor outfit, white and yellow. Her skirt is above her knees. Not exactly cute, but it would do. At least she does not have to think about what to wear in this nosy morning. On her right shoulder is the school's gray messenger bag.

Hilary walked down the stair and saw a book being thrown from the living room. She felt fully awake and hurried down the stairs. Terra and Amaya were throwing things at one another, laughing. They were wearing their uniforms also but Terra is wearing a green one. When Terra saw Hilary, she quickly stopped her laughter and went into the kitchen. "Dose she hate me or something?" Hilary just had to ask.

Amaya laughed, "I guess. That's how she was when I first got here yesterday morning too. It takes time to be friends with someone like her. You'll do fine if you talk to her often."

"I don't know how you did it within this much time," Hilary said, sighing. It's not like she wanted to friends with Terra anyway. She will just let the time flow and see what happens in the future. "Where do we eat breakfast?" she asked.

"Here," Amaya said. "Yumeko cooks for us."

"You seem to know quite a bit about these girls already," Hilary said, a bit envious. "How do you do it?"

Amaya thought for a moment and smirked. "Just talking," she said. "I talked to them last night and we had a good laugh. Too bad you wouldn't leave your room and join us."

Hilary sighed. She should have hang out with them. Keeping good relationships is a good way to get around here so she better think of something to become good friends with them too.

Breakfast started after a while. "I'm heading out first," Terra said, opening the front door.

The other girls at the table were half way finishing their breakfast and Terra had already left. "Is she always like this?" Hilary asked to see if Terra just did not want to eat at the same table as her.

"Yes," April said. She is wearing a blue uniform with the same designs. "She's a fast eater."

"Oh," Hilary continued to eat her bacons and eggs. "By the way, why are the colors of your and Yumeko's uniform different?"

April looked at Yumeko, who was wearing a green one like Terra. She looked back at Hilary. "The colors stand for our years in high school," she explained. "The first years wears yellow, the second year wears green, the third years wears blue, and the fourth years wears red. All the of messenger bags are all gray."

"I see," Hilary nodded.

Breakfast is over and April told the three girls to go out first. "I still have the last finishing touches to do," April said. "I'll get to school after that."

"Okay!" Amaya gave her a thumps up.

Hilary walked outside with Yumeko and Amaya. There were some students walking around also. "How many members are you expecting to join?" Hilary asked the two of them.

Yumeko and Amaya smiled at each other. "Oh, we're hoping to get more then five, at the very least anyway," Yumeko chuckled.

Amaya nodded, snickering. "If I don't get more then five, I'll just think of something to make them beg for their life. Simple." She continued to snicker. "Now, the first thing I will do is find that Tyson guy."

"Do we go to classes first?" Hilary questioned. "Mr. Dickenson said something about the clubs so…"

"There are booths prepared earlier this morning," Yumeko said. "The amount of time given for first years to find club to get in is about an two hours."

Hilary smiled, surprised, "That's a lot of time!"

"That's just because there are a lot of clubs," Yumeko said. "If a club doesn't get more than three people to join, the school will have to get rid of that club. So every upperclassmen are all intense about it."

"I see," Hilary nodded. She now knows why Amaya is trying hard to get members or maybe that's just one of the reasons why.

Amaya grinned and walked backwards. "Yumeko, did you bring the dolls?" she asked. Hilary's eyes pop open.

"Yeah," Yumeko said.

Hilary tapped on Yumeko's shoulder. "You… Do you practice black magic or something?" she asked.

"Something like that," Yumeko smiled. "It's not that hard… but I only know a little bit. If I do it too much, my life spans weakens."

Is she serious? Hilary thought. She's acting so calm about it. There's definitely something wrong with these girls!

"…I was just joking," Yumeko flatly said, after seeing Hilary's worry face. "No body gets my jokes." She quickly walked ahead with fake tears.

"Oh…" Hilary smiled a little. "Then… why the dolls?"

Amaya snickered, "Just something to make people scare if they don't decide to join us. We got it ALL plan out and when the time comes, we'll use them."

Hilary smiled nervously. "How?"

The high pigtail girl smirked. "You'll see. And you don't have to worry about it… Terra and Yumeko will be the ones frightening them."

"O… kay," she slightly nodded. Hilary quietly walked along side with her and looked around at the other students. Some looked tired and some looked like they're ready for school. She glanced behind her and saw Tyson walking with a blond hair boy. They were just a few yards away from them. "Amaya!" Hilary elbowed her in the arm. "That's Tyson!"

"Where?" Amaya whispered, looking back.

Yumeko looked back at them. "Walk a little faster, girls," she said.

"You go on without us," Amaya said, not looking back at her. "I'm going to look for members from here for a while…" Yumeko shrugged and went on without them. Hilary was going to follow her, but Amaya grabbed her arm. "Where do you think you're going?" she asked.

Hilary silently looked at her for a moment. "To school," she replied.

"You're staying with me," Amaya said, smiling.

"Eh?" Hilary pulled away. "I don't want him to find out that I told on him! He might go and tell everyone that I'm also the student who was late on the first day."

Amaya gave her a blank look. Hilary's right because if this Tyson does go and tell the others, Hilary may not be able to stay in the club. There will be no reason for her to join if that happens. "Alright," she patted on her shoulder, agreeing. "You can leave."

Hilary gave her a quick smile and hurried after Yumeko, leaving Tyson to Amaya.

At last, Yumeko and Hilary reached to the school's ground. Golden High. Yumeko was telling her about a few haunted areas around and say that each of the haunted places is where April likes hanging out when they have club meetings. Hilary nodded, nervous about it. She looked around as they walked pass the gates. She saw a bunch of girls, who were all at the different ages, surrounding a couple of guys, screaming their names, "Tala!" and "Kai!".

"What's up with them?" Hilary asked. The two guys, who are surrounded by the girls, were wearing green uniforms, meaning that the guys must be second years.

Yumeko chuckled, "Those two are consider to be the hottest guys here. Those girls just the two guys' fans. Nothing much."

"…Are they going out with any of them?" Hilary asked, rather curious. She looked at Kai and remembered him from yesterday, although he does not have his scarf. He did not look very happy about the screaming girls, but the red hair guy, who must be Tala, looks like he's having fun and he's chatting with a lot of them all at once.

Yumeko is walking fast again and Hilary went to catch up with her. "Nope," Yumeko said. "If their fans tries to, Kai would refuse. I'm thinking the reason why is because he don't like loud girls. As for Tala, he's been with a few girls now but right now he's single because maybe they're not just his type." Yumeko looked at her as they walked through the booths of the clubs. "You like one of them?"

"No," Hilary slightly blushed. "I was just asking."

"Yeah, sure," she laughed.

Hilary pouted. "Then what about you?"

Yumeko smiled, "Yeah, because I'm one of their fans and I go crazy for them every time. But right now is not the time to go wild about them, the club is more important to me than some hot guys I rarely know."

Hilary giggled. "If you're that calm when it comes to important stuff, I don't think I would consider you as one of those crazy girls."

"Really?" Yumeko laughed. "Then you should see me when I go to my fan girl mode. Hehehehe…"

"Maybe I don't," Hilary said.

Yumeko patted on her back, pointing to a booth that is only a couple of running steps. "There it is… our booth," she told her. There is a big sign that read: Drama Club. "Let's hope we can gather a lot of people this year."

Hilary nodded, still feeling uneasy about this. Yumeko quickly ran for the booth and she slowly followed her.
