Something That Will Never Happen
Chapter 4: Decisions, Decisions It was Sunday that Christy spent practically the whole day thinking about the parts. Alicia had come over to help, and so had Daniel, Emma, and Tom, because they offered and they were bored at the hotel. "Hmm. I think that girl named Emily should be her." Said Daniel, pointing to the name on the computer. "Yeah, and that bud of hers would fit perfectly as her friend," Emma agreed. "Good idea" Christy commented, typing the names with the character. "There are so many characters. I didn't realize it till now," commented Daniel, reading the list. Tom was sitting on her bed, behind the computer, reading the names of people who tried of and their characters. Daniel and Emma were standing on both sides of Christy, who was sitting in a gray chair in front of the computer. Alicia was on the other side of the room looking through pictures because she was "letting her mind rest". "This is harder then I thought" Christy said after another 10 minutes. She crossed her arms on the desk and leaned her head on it and closed her eyes. Daniel chuckled, "Tired, Christy?" "Well, we're almost done," said Tom, looking at the computer screen over Christy's head. "All we have left are Hermione and Cho." Christy and Alicia both jumped. Emma immediately knew what was going on, and she asked, "Christy, can I talk to you outside?" Christy stood up and looked at her, "Sure." They both walked out of Christy's room and onto the back porch. Emma sat down on a pool chair and Christy sat down next to her. "I know I've only known you for 2 days," Emma began, "but I think I know why you didn't audition. Your friend Alicia wants the part of Hermione, and so do you." "You share a trait with Hermione, Emma" Christy mentioned half tonelessly. "You both can read minds." Emma smiled a bit but waved it off. "That's beside the point." "Well, for one thing, you're right. I do want the part of Hermione, and so does Alicia. Since I'm the manager, I have to choose. I don't want Alicia to be upset, so I didn't audition. But now. oh I'm so confused!" Christy sighed and looked down. This was just unfair. "Well, you have one day to decide. Pretend Alicia isn't your best friend, and you were someone else. Now, who's better for the part?" Emma got up and walked back inside, leaving Christy to think alone.
**Later that night** "Finished!" Chris announced to no one in particular. Everyone had left because of the time, so Christy had to deicide over 10 parts herself. She printed out the papers and walked into the kitchen. "Set the table." Her dad ordered. She grabbed some forks and napkins and put them on the table, and then turned to her mom, who was putting salad on the plates, "I decided the parts." "Oh really?" Her mom looked up from the plates, "what's yours?" "Um. I haven't finished all of them, all but 2" she told her truthfully. "Oh I see." Her mom watched her for another moment before finishing the salad and putting the bowl in the sink.
**It's Monday!** When Christy walked into the high school building the next day, wearing a long khaki skirt and a white shirt with her hair pulled back into a clip, she was immediately bombarded with questions of "what part am I?" and so on. She answered, "You'll have to wait!" and walked on. She got so tired of it that by the time she walked into homeroom, she stopped in the doorway and announced, "Everyone, do NOT ask me what part you are. Just WAIT!" After that, no one asked her or Alicia the question. When the bell rang at 8:15, Mrs. Fisher walked up to the front of the class and pronounced, "Everyone, today we will be having a meeting in the Fellowship hall. It will be like chapel, so sit in the seats you usually do. You'll find out why when we get there." So, after homeroom was over, the 8th graders walked to the Fellowship hall. "Wonder what it's about?" Michael asked no one in particular. "You'll probably have to announce the parts," Alicia whispered to Christy. Providentially for her, she brought the paper with her. When they all arrived, they found the rest of the high school and some of the 6th graders there. As usual, the boys were on one side arranged by grade and girls on the other with the same. Alicia, Christy, and the rest of the 8th grade girls walked to their usual seats in the 2nd and 3rd rows. Mr. Weer walked up to the front of the room where the podium stood and waited till the room quieted down. "All right everyone," he called loudly, "let's start with this thing." At that, each person hushed. "You all are probably wondering why in the world you're here. Well, I'll explain. "As you know, the 8th graders are doing a play called Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Some of you are surprised, I see. Why did we choose this? We chose it because it was the most well known story in the 8h grade. "Anyway, I know that the people who've tried out for the parts in the play are dying to know. So, that's where this meeting comes in. If Miss Christy White will come up, I'll pass this on to her." He looked at her and waited. She got up nervously from her seat and headed up to the podium, feeling all eyes on her. When she reached it, Mr. Weer winked at her and walked o the back of the room. "Ok, for those of you who don't know, I'm Christy- the manager of the play.
"I have decided who makes the places. Some of you may be happy, sad, mad, or something else, but please understand, several people tried out for the same part. Example, 13 different people tried out for Harry. One made it. So whatever part you get, please don't be angry with me. Just enjoy your part and benefit from even being in the play at all, cause this is going to take a long time to prepare for. "Have you guys been tortured by the wait long enough?" She inquired, smiling. Some people nodded, others said "yes." She waited a few seconds before saying "ok, ok, I'll tell you." "What we're gonna do is- I'll ask 4 people to come up. If you're called, please come up on both sides of the podium- two on each. I'll say each person's part when they all get here. Y'all can applaud or whatever you wanna do. Sound good? Ok, let's instigate." She opened her notebook and set it on the podium. Then, Christy looked at her audience and told them, "let's start with the teachers. Will Mrs. Gable, Mrs. Fisher, Mrs. Holser, and Mr. Weer come up?" All four teachers walked up and Mr. Weer and Mrs. Gable stood to Christy's right while Mrs. Fisher and Mrs. Holser stood on her left. "I'll start with Mr. Weer. He will be playing the part of. the headmaster, Dumbledore!" Applause erupted from the students, and Christy had to wait around a minute before continuing. "Mrs. Gable will be playing Aunt Marge!" Christy yelled over the cheers, "I think we should wait till I announce all four people before you guys applaud!" "Phew. ok, Mrs. Holser is. the Quiddtitch referee, Madam Hooch! "And Mrs. Fisher will be playing the Herbology teacher, Professor Sprout!" Now everyone clapped as Christy handed each teacher their own scripts and waited till the teachers sat down to continue. "Now I would like Mr. Fort, Mrs. Blackman, Mr. Holser, and Pastor Mauger to come up." After they arrived, she announced, "Mr. Fort is playing the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Lupin! "Mr. Holser will be playing the Potions teacher, the one everyone except his own house despises, and also the same character Harry loathes, Professor Snape!" Everyone laughed at this and Christy looked at Mr. Holser apologetically, "sorry Mr. Holser, I was just describing your character a little more." Before he could respond, she continued, "Pastor Mauger, who isn't here, is the game keeper and Harry's close friend, Hagrid! "Finally, Mrs. Blackman is the strange, mystical Divinations teacher, Professor Trelenway!" Clapping once sounded again as the teachers received their scripts and headed back to their seats. "Finally, I need Pastor Jay, Mr. Stark, Mrs. Stine, and- that's all the teachers that are left!" The male teachers stood on one side and Mrs. Stine stood on the other. "Mr. Stark will be playing the. a guy in the play called Fudge that I don't know how to describe!" Everyone laughed. "Mrs. Stine will be playing the ever so strict and the head of Gryffindor, Professor McGonagall!" "Now, Pastor Jay will be playing several different parts. And so will his wife, who has also decided to pitch in. Pastor Jay himself will be playing the voice of a knight in a painting, Sir Catagon, James- Harry's father- voice, and Mr. Wesley! "His wife will be playing Lily, Harry's mother's voice, and Mrs. Wesley!" Everyone clapped again as Christy handed the teacher's his or her scripts, but handed Pastor Jay 2. "Now, I would like Deke and Katie to come up here real quick." Everyone looked around puzzled as 2 people walked forward and stood on separate sides of the podium. "Deke and Katie were our coaches in my Theater Arts camp. We asked them to help us because we didn't really have anyone else for the part. So, Deke will be playing Voldemort's voice AND Harry's stupid, crazy uncle, Uncle Vernon! "Oh thanks Christy." Deke told her sarcastically. Then they all laughed. "Katie will be playing Uncle Vernon's wife and Harry's strange Aunt, Aunt Petunia!" Everyone clapped and Christy once again handed them their scripts, but this time, they walked out the door and left. "Now, for the students!" Everyone tensed up at this. "I would like Deveron, Thomas, Zack, and Matt to come forward." Four boys all with blond hair walked up to the front. "Deveron will be playing the very annoying and hyper boy, Collin Crevey, Thomas will be one of Harry's friends, Seamus. Matt will be Harry's other friend, Dean, and Zack will be the annoying, self-absorbed, Percy!" For the 8th time, the high school and teachers began to clap as the four boys sat down. "Would the following people please come up: Jesse, Greg, Leusely, and Sarah?" The boys stood on the left while the girls stood on the right. "Jesse will be playing a 5th year boy who's- whoa, wait. Jesse doesn't fit that quality. Anyway- he'll be playing the Huffelpuff Seeker, Cedric Diggory! "Greg will be playing Harry's fat, stupid, annoying, a million other words git, Dudley! "Leusely will be playing a girl on the Q. team, Angelina, while Sarah will also be a teammate, Alicia!" Everyone was getting tired of clapping, so it wasn't as loud. Christy handed the scripts and turned back around to face the audience. "We're almost done, hang in there! "Alyssa, Emily, Mandy and Alicia! Come on down!" Everyone laughed a little as the four girls walked over to the podium. Starting from left to right, she announced, "Emily will be playing Lavender, while Mandy will be playing another girl on the Q. team, Katie. Alyssa will be playing Pavarti, while Alicia will be playing Harry's crush, Cho." Everyone clapped but some whispered at the last comment. "We're really close. I would like Chris H, Toby, Chris C., and Michael to come on up." She looked at Michael as he walked up to the podium and stood on her right side. He gave her a smile as he waited. "Ok, Michael will be playing Harry's friend, Neville, and Chris K. is Draco Malfoy, the annoying, self absorbed, rude, character and Harry's rival. Toby and the shorter Chris," she paused to smile, "will be Malfoy' friends, which are Crabbe and Goyle." Chris, aka Malfoy, seemed to be pleased with his part as he grabbed his script and went to join the 9th graders. She whispered to Michael as she handed him his own script, "Sorry- you don't have to big of a part." He smiled at her nonetheless, "that's all right. I'm not the best actor anyway." She gave him a sweet smile before picking up the mic again and was about to start, but Mrs. Gram opened the door at the back of the room and called, "Christy! Could you come here for a moment?" Christy looked around before coming up with an idea. "This is a good time to introduce the assistant manager, Alicia Revelle, aka Cho. Alicia, please come up here and introduce the people I haven't checked yet." Alicia rose out of her seat in the 2nd row and walked up to the podium. Christy gave her the mic and walked down the isle and out of the room (Alicia) "Ok guys- I need Cameron, Troy, Ashley Davis and Julie to come up." Two very tall boys who looked about the 11th/10th grade walked up to Alicia's left while Julie and Ashley stood on Alicia's right. "Julie will be playing a waitress at a popular- restaurant- Madam Rosmerta. Ashley will be playing the youngest sibling of the Wesley's, Ginny. Cameron will be Sirius, Harry's un-known godfather and supposed to be murderer. Finally, Troy will be one of the evil characters- Wormtail. I'd describe him, but I'd give away the plot." Everyone clapped and Alicia handed the scripts out and waited for Christy. There were only 6 parts left. (Christy) "I can't believe you guys came!" she exclaimed, looking around at everyone. "Of course we did. We told you we'd be here," said a redhead diagonal from her. "But how'd you know I choose you three?" she asked suspiciously. "We guessed." The tall bow with brown hair told her. "Oh well! Come on- you two can stand on one side while Sean stands on the other. I'll announce you there" Christy told them. "Sounds good." Oliver said, motioning for her to open the door. She pushed it back open and stepped into the room. Most of the people were watching her, but she didn't mind. She was used to it by now. The 3 boys followed her as she walked back up to the podium, with the twins standing to her right and Sean on the left. Alicia handed her the mic and went to go sit down again. "Ok guys-" Christy started, getting their attention. "These guys around me are from the original movie, and will be playing their own parts. Oliver and James Phelps will be playing the twins, Fred and George Wesley, because no one else looks alike or is as mischievous as them." She smiled and everyone laughed. "And Sean will be playing the captain of Gryffindor, Wood." Everyone clapped and the 3 gathered their scripts and sat down in the back. "Now, the last 3 parts." Christy paused as silence filled the air. "Will Tim Anglea and Ethan Barba come up here?" The two nervous looking boys walked to the front and stood on either side of her. She gave them each an encouraging smile before continuing. "These two have some of the longest parts, not to mention trickiest, in the play. They were the best who tried out for their parts and who made it. "Before we get to them, I wanted to say that I would be playing as Hermione Granger, Harry and Ron's best friend. "Ethan will be playing Harry's best friend, Ron Wesley." She stopped and looked around. She could almost feel Tim's impatience growing. "Let me introduce you to the next Harry Potter- Tim Anglea!" Everyone clapped loudly and the boys turned to her, She gave each of them a script and congratulations before taking the last one and going back to her own seat. Mr. Weer came back up and smiled at everyone. "That took a whole hour, so your 2nd hr class will be a little short. Also, there will be no PE until the play is over. Practice starts at 2:30 in the auditorium tomorrow, and the managers will decide how it goes on from there."
