Chapter Two
Will She Sing, and Where Are We Going To Eat?
Rey's dorm room was a four room suite. There were three bedrooms with
restrooms attached, and a kitchen family room conjunction.
Rey began to hum as she unpacked. Not many people knew, but she was a
well renowned singer and actress, back in Colorado. Singing was her
true passion, not snowboarding, but did both for a living, if you can
call it a living. When you're fifteen, turning sixteen in a month or
so, you don't really have a living.
She hummed one of her favorite songs, and sang the words in her head,
'When I am down, and o' my soul so weary. When troubles come, and my
heart burdened be.when I am still, and waiting in the silence. Until
you come, and sit a while with me. You raise me up so I can stand on
mountains! You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas. I am strong when I
am on your shoulders. You raise me up, to more than I can be.' Rey
stopped humming immediately, Kristin and Kaori had just popped into
her room.
"Was that you?" Kaori asked in perfect English.
"Oh, I'm sorry, was I too loud?" Rey put a hand to her mouth.
"That was incredible! You should sing for the opening feast!" Kristin
clapped her hands. "Y'know, Cayce told me that he was into musical
theater too! You should both do something together!"
"Well, I, I don't know.."
"Awe, c'mon, there's this huge parade and feasty-thingy before the
tournament actually begins.how about this, if I can beat Cayce in a
race, then he has to sing-"
Kaori finished the bet, "If Cayce has to sing, then you have to sing,
too!"
"Uh.I don't think I-"
"Oh, come on, Rey! Please! Last year Mac did this whole DJ thing,
while Psymon break danced, it was awesome!"
"Sometimes they broadcast it on TV!" Kaori smiled.
"Er."
"Well, you don't have to if you really don't want to, but if I do beat
Cayce, will you at least think about it?"
"Alright. I promise I will think about it. Who knows, it could be my
lucky break!"
All three laughed, and went back to unpacking.
By then time everyone was done packing, they were all famished. It was
at least 8:30 at night, and the entire gang decided to go out to eat.
The only problem now, was that it was impossible for all of them to
decide where to go!
"I will eat anything but Mexican and Italian," said Viggo.
"I want to go someplace where there's a dance floor.let's go
clubbing!" Moby smiled and winked at Zoe, who playfully shoved him.
"We had better go someplace with beer! That's all that matters to me!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Psymon, you forget that we've got some minors here
with us!" Brink frowned.
"Yeah, but they don't have to drink!" Nate grabbed Elise's hand, "I
say clubbing's a great idea!" Elise yanked her hand out of his, and
went to stand by Zoe. She started filing her nails.
"I don't care, lets just GO!" Kristin cried.
"Sounds good to me! Come on, lets go to 'The Setting Sun.' I hear that
they're the best night club in the alpine region." Mac smiled. As an
after thought he called, "Who wants to be the designated driver? We're
going to need one with Psymon and Viggo coming along." He smirked at
the two gave him dirty looks.
"I'll drive," Allegra shouted, "Okay, now lets please just go and
eat!"
