Hey everyone! Part 3 is here! Oh yeah, I'm pretty dumb for not mentioning the ages.....
Tai, Sora, Matt, Mimi-17
Izzy-16
Yolei-15
Davis, TK, Kari-14
Jun-18
I'm only 16, I'm low on cash, so that would be pretty useless in sueing (sp?) me. Oh yeah, "Superhero" by Sky does not belong to me either along with Digimon.^__^

Rival Schools- Part Three
By Lanni (fishilicious@hotmail.com)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Light brightly shone through a huge window in the theatre. Soothing classical music filled the theatre as the cast continued their mirror exercises. Some people were sitting down while others were standing up. Some people were even walking around. Sora lifted her arms above her head. Her gaze followed her hands since she didn't want to look at Tai. Tai followed since it was a mirror exercise and he really didn't want to look at the girl he insulted the other day.

*I have to kiss this guy? But he's from Narihito High!* She slowly and gracefully let her arms drop to her sides while her head was down. She was deep in thought. *No, no Sora. That shouldn't be a factor....For the good of the musical....for the SAKE of the musical. You're not gonna quit or act like a baby. Remember...it's only a play....it's not real...*

The other girls were making aquaintances with the other guys."How many Pentium designers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?" Izzy asked as he poked his nose.
"I dunno, how many?"Yolei said with a smile on her face, poking her own nose.
"1.99904274017, but that's close enough for non-technical people!" Izzy said laughing out loud. (A/N: ? !?! I got this joke off of some stupid pentium jokes website!)

"That's so cool that you're related to THE Matt Ishida!"Jun said with stars in her eyes. TK sweatdropped regreting that he told her that.
"Yeah, um....too bad you're not partnered with him, huh?"
"I KNOW! GOD! HE JUST HAD TO PARTNERED UP WITH THAT PINK HAIRED BIMBO MIMI!"
Everyone looked in her direction. She eeped and 'sorry for the disturbance'. Mimi gave her the evil eye and kinda snuggled closer to Matt.
*That'll keep the bitch on the run. I bet Jun is really jealous.* Mimi gave Jun a smirk, then flashed Matt a smile.
*Is she hitting on me?*Matt was confused but then figured out an answer,*Heeeeyyyy, I still got it! Da Man is back! Looks like my charms are working on her like uh....um...a charm.* He flashed Mimi a smile back while Mimi turned a light shade pink.
Jun saw all of that and then considered. "Heh, whatever. I guess being with his younger brother is just as good!"
TK turned into a pale color and muttered to Davis, "Yo man.....your sister is freaking me out....."
"Don't worry......."Davis muttered back.".....at least she hasn't put on her 'ready for puckering up' lipstick. Light pinkish color. Cover girl brand, I think. Or was that Maybeline? Anyways, when she pulls that out, run like the wind."
TK sighed and turned back to see Jun applying something to her lips.
"GYAHHHH!!!!" He bolted out of the theatre, leaving Jun in a puff of smoke. Everyone looked in Jun's direction again as she put the lid on the chapstick she was holding.
"What? My lips were cracking."
"So yeah, I'm on the same team as Tai." Davis said as he looked from where TK exited to Kari.
"Cool! I should go to more games then." Kari giggled. Davis blushed and thanked the gods that he was paired up with her.

"More interaction!"Ms Fuji said as she weaved her way around pairs of people."Tai, Sora, I don't see a lot of interaction!" Sora finally lifted her head up to be locked in the chocolate brown eyes that belonged to Tai Kamiya. *It's....not....real....*

Maybe it was the quiet music or the calmess of the environment, but Sora was in a trance. She wouldn't have noticed it, but Tai was hyptnotized, too. All of the conflict between the schools, their argument the other day, the whole friction between them seemed to vanish. She lifted up her hands to meet Tai's and she slowly moved them in circles as if she was window washing. Their eyes were locked to each other and they didn't know why. Tai couldn't pry his eyes away. *No way. Remember, it's only a play. Itsnotrealitsnotrealitsnotreal....* He continously thought. He saw a shimmer in her eyes that made him want to grin from ear to ear. But his face was blank.*What the hell is wrong with me? I ain't enjoying this. No way!* Matt and Mimi were pretending they were spies. They were crouched down low and were walking across the stage, following each others movements. They both must have not seen where they were going because they both bummped into Tai and Sora pushing them closer together.

"Sorry guys" Matt muttered as he kept his eye on Mimi. They walked off to another part of the stage. Tai and Sora stopped moving, hearing each others soft breathing. It was like they were alone. Everything else was forgoten and it was them and them only in the theatre.

"OKAY then!" Ms Fuji said stepping between the two teenagers."A little bit too much interaction, don'tcha think?"She winked. She walked over to the boom box and put in a different cd."Now that we're relaxed, let's do some body movin' to warm up!"Sora and Tai kept looking at each other, not moving. It must have been the quiet music or the calmness of the environment, because the unspoken intimacy was lost when Tai spoke.

"GIVE ME SOME BREATHING SPACE, WOMAN!" The shimmer in Sora's eyes disappeared and was replaced with an icy stare.

"Oh, it'll be my pleasure! As long as I get away from your DAMN B.O!"

"You're gallons of perfume is bad enough! What did you do? Put a dab......on every inch of your body?!?!"

"Oh, I'll show you how I DAB!" Sora yelled as she charged towards Tai with lightning speed.

"Bring it on, sweet stuff!" Tai said, all macho like. Matt could practically predict the whole scene, so he quickly pulled Tai away from Sora who delivered a fierce kick. Mimi ran over to her to hold her back.

Tai was shocked and surprised. "WHOA! Okay kiddies, that's enough. I hope you act more responsible. I'll disregard this. But next time there will be consequences."Ms Fuji said sternly. She then smiled and pushed the play button on the boom box. All of a sudden, "Superhero" by Sky could be heard. Everyone started to get jiggy (hehe) and have some fun. A girl pushed a button that made the automatic blinds come over the huge window, blocking out any possible sunlight, and then pushed another button that made a huge disco ballk, which was from last year's production of "Saturday Night Fever", come down from the ceiling.

*Stress on the ACT part, Ms Fuji* Tai thought as he danced. He turned around to see Sora dancing and singing along with Mimi. He walked backwards toward her so he can ask her about her killer kick. "So, um, do you do tae kwon doe, or sumthin'? 'Cause that was one mighty kick that you delivered."

"Save the sweet talk" Sora muttered.

"She was the soccer team's star player! The captain! But then she quit and now she's on the tennis team."

"Really, Mimi? Well, I'm not that much of a tennis player, but I am the captain of Narihito High's soccer team. I led the team to country finals. Last time I heard, you're team didn't even make it to the city playoffs." Tai gloated.

"Shut up. Since you're so full of it, I bet you'll tell us next that you're the one that always pulls the pranks on our school." Sora coldly stated. Tai smirked at the thought and just continued to dance.

All of the other girls, except for Sora, were getting used to the guys presence. Lots of people started to sing and do some funky dance moves. Matt cleared the center of the stage for Tai. He took off his blazer and began to breakdance. Lots of girls ooohed and aaahed and even hooted him on!

{You're my superhero come to life
Tell me do you really wanna really wanna ride with me?
(I wanna ride with you)
You know you do me right, Tell me do you really wanna really wanna ride with me
(If you really want me to)......}

"Heh, that's just flash." Sora snickered as she moonwalked to the center of the stage, bumped Tai off (which sent him smashing to the ground), and began to butterfly. She did some hip hop moves AND breakdancing which earned applause from everyone. The disco lights enhanced her moves making her look like she belonged on Electric Circus (A/N: Canadian reference! Electric Circus is a Techno/Dance show on Muchmusic.)

{...You know you're my superhero,
you bring out the little girl in me,
and when push comes to shove,
you're right there flying out my window sill......}

Mimi jumped infront of everyone, leading them in a cheer.
"GO SORA, GO SORA, GO, GO, GO SORA!" Tai just sat back and watched with a scowl on his face.

{....You're my one and only superhero.}

Sora finished off with an amzing backflip and stuck a pose with her left hand on her hip and her right hand pointing to the sky. Everyone cheered and ran towards her.

"That was awsome!"

"You're the greatest!"

"Teach me! Teach me!"

"That was a great warm up everyone! Singing and dancing, it was awsome! Let's get started on Act 1 now." Ms Fuji smiled.

"Damn girls and their tricky footwork" Tai groaned as he got up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Okay, Mimi" Sora looked up from her math textbook,"if we have a vertext of (-5, 8), what is our axis of symetery? It's pretty easy."
Mimi twirled her hair around a finger while she bit her pencil. "Hmmm.....8?"
"Right. I mean no. Wrong, wrong! No, wait, do I even know the answer? Ughhh, my head hurts!" Sora said as she fell backwards on her bed with her face in her hands. Mimi and Sora were at Sora's house studying for a pre-cal test.

"Sora, you're the math expert, not me. What's on your mind?"
"Nuttin'. I just can't concentrate."
"Ummm hmmm. Yeah, I'm so sure. I bet you're so concentrated on trying to be better than that Tai guy, huh?"
"Oh yeah. He's got such an attitude problem!"
"Yeah, uh huh. Sure, whatever. I know you, Sora."Mimi teased.
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"You hardly never dance like that! When it comes to warm ups in musical theatre, you never go all out."
"Yeah, so? I wanted to get reved up for practice. What's wrong with that?"Sora questioned.
"Ah. I see. Trying to play it cool and innocent, huh?" Mimi wagged her finger."You always show off your dance moves when a GUY is around! I'm cool with that. I think it's cute that you're trying to impress Tai."
"WHAT?!?!? I am NOT trying to impress Tai! Never in a million years!"
"I'm SOOOO SURE, SORA!"

"Yeah?" Sora said calmly,"Well, what was that thing with Matt, huh? Getting closer with him during mirror exercises?"
"Anything to make Jun jealous."Mimi grinned,"And anyways, Matt won't take it as a crush or anything, I'm sure. Ya know, cause I'm from a different school and all and I'm a Mizuho girl. Narihito guys never go out with Mizuho girls. It's an unwritten rule." She said point-dexterly.
"Whatever." Sora said looking back at her math text. *I was not trying to impress Tai. I was not trying to impress Tai. I was not trying to impress Tai.* "Oh yeah, and the answer isn't 8. It's x = -5."
"I was close." Mimi sighed as she fell backwards on the bed, too. *It's an unwritten rule, though. So if it's not in black and white, it can be broken.*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sora walked into school the next day to be met by Mimi, Kari, Jun, and Yolei.

"There's word going around the school that we, meaning you, me, Yolei, Kari, and Jun, are planning a prank on Narihito High."Mimi said.
"What? But we're not the ones that usually do these things."
"True"Yolei said,"but since all 5 of us are in the musical with Narihito guys, it's less likely that they'd suspect us as the culprits."
"Hmmm, sounds okay, I guess. But what are we gonna do?" Sora asked.
"Well," Kari pipped, "since you used to play soccer, you're...well...um...I don't really know how to put it...."
"I'm what? Tell me! Does this have to deal with soccer?"
"Well...."Kari said as she reached into her bag and pulled out a pair of white shorts with 2 red stripes on the side with a matching red jersey, "you're joining Narihito High's soccer team!"
"I'M WHAT?!?!?!"
"Yep, we got it all planned out. Don't worry."Jun smiled as she walked away.
"They have practice every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. They're not on the same days as musical theatre, so you won't have to miss any practices." Kari said as she handed Sora the uniform. "I'm gonna be late for history, so I'll see you later!"
"But I-I-I-I..." Sora stuttered.
"Hehe!"Mimi giggled."You're the one that was the once-awsome soccer player and we're all sure you can fake being a boy. You're the best actress, why do you think you got the lead in the musical?"
"But I-I-I-I..."
"Don't worry! This will be fun! See you later, Chen Osatakouri!"Mimi giggled again.
"Chen Osatakouri?" Sora said with a confused look on her face. "ARRRUUGH!"

And that's Part 3! Sorry it was so short, folks. I'm really busy with school and everything.

Oh yeah, remember, this is mainly a TAIORA and a little MIMATO. I really like Daikari, but I'm not gonna impress any other couplings into the story. Just Taiora and a little bit of a Mimato, plain and simple. Sure, that's what you might of thought of when you read part three and two, but no. The others are simply there just for character and to make the story more fun. There is no, and I repeat, no couplings whatsoever with everyone else. I am gonna leave that free to public to think whatever they want because I am focusing on Tai, Sora, Matt, and Mimi. Well, now that I got that out of my system, I'd better be going now. Buh bye! And please review!
