Footloose
No one's POV
Trey and Blink were face to face, the music stopped and everyone was silent, suddenly Trey collapsed and fainted.
"That's…That's…" Blink stuttered "…me" then Blink fainted
"Um, sorry! The show's over!!" Azure yelled to the audience "Take Trey to the dressing room, Agua carry Blink, I don't care where, but somewhere AWAY from Trey!" Azure ordered "And the rest, listen closely"
Meanwhile at the dance competition
"You guys remember the routine, right?" Holiday asked
"Uh huh" Mush gulped nervously
"Group 24! You're up!"
"Here we go!" exclaimed Holiday
All three of them ran on the stage, Mush and Bumlets stood across from each other and did parallel back flips while Holiday did a dance in the middle.
Little did they know that Race and Saphhy were in the crowed watching.
"They call this dancing, I can do much better than their mindless flips"
"You can?" Saphhy asked
"Just wait and see" said Race as he left Saphhy and jumped on the stage
Meanwhile Trey opened his eyes, he was in a room
"Hey Trey man, how ya doin'? You had a really bad fall during the reunion" Davy said
"Reunion?" Trey asked confused
"Yeah, remember? You're at the Newsies reunion"
"What really? I could of sworn I saw myself on stage with Arvie and Michael"
"Must have been a dream" Jack suggested
"No it couldn't have been" Trey then looked at David "You've really gone all out for this Dave, where did you find your old costume"
"Umn, it was just ling around"
"Funny Arvie you look different than in that Orange juice commercial, I guess being clean cut make you look younger, seriously all of you guys look young like you never changed a bit or like just jumped out of the movie"
"Yeah, that's it we just jumped out of the movie" nervously joked Skittery
"That would of explained a lot of things, like why Dave has his old costume or why Christian looks so young and has long hair when just a month ago there was a pic of him with a shaved head, but what am I talking about that's not possible"
"Right, it's not possible" Azure agreed
"Who are you?" Trey asked
"Oh, just an extra"
"Maybe I'm hallucinating and didn't see myself onstage with a patch"
"Yeah, probably" Jack said
"I better get going, I'm tired and the whole thing is too confusing"
Trey headed for the door and opened it to Blink standing there…
Meanwhile back at the dance competition
Race ran in between Much and Bumlets.
"Race?"
"Let the little guy show you how it's done" Race winked as did an amazing tap dance and a twirl the audience and judges cheered.
"Wow that was a great performance there by group 24, let's give then a ---"
Mush took the mike from the announcer.
"Riley this dance was for you, I'm sorry I was such an ass, can you forgive me?"
The whole audience awed
"What do you say Riley?"
"I forgive you!" She yelled back
Meanwhile
"How do you explain this?!" Trey asked in shock "I can't be hallucinating!"
"Okay Trey, we can explain" Azure jumped in
"How do you explain this?! Don't say he's my long lost twin"
"Umn, you know that joke you told about us all jumping out of the movie…well it's true" Jack confessed
"I don't understand" said Trey
"We're all Newsies characters that found a way to get out of the movie"
"No way"
"Way, that guy with the patch standing next to you is your movie character or more like your past self" Azure said
"This can't be true…there's no possible way…I don't believe you"
"Les, step forward"
Les walked up to Trey
"Holy---! How?! This is…this is!"
"Long story, we can't explain really"
"This is amazing, where's the others, I haven't seen Race, Mush, Spot, or Bumlets"
Meanwhile
"We won!" Yelled Mush
"You mean I won" said Race taking the trophy and check from him
"Hey!"
"What about me, I came up with the whole routine!" Holiday cut in
"Five thousand dollars! I'm rich" Race exclaimed with gambling on his mind
"You mean WE'RE rich" Bumlets said as he took the check from Race
This Thing Called Love
Azure's POV
We were all back from the fair and Trey went back with us. We had a blast and Trey told us stories from the set, which the newsies all loved to hear and to learn more about their creators especially Blink who bonded with Trey. Soon after, Trey had to leave because he had a concert the day to get to.
Then unfortunately, the day came…the day where they all had to leave and get back to the movie…I made up my mind, I know what I'm going to do
It was a very sad day, everyone was gathered in the my living room , the TV was on
"Come on, let's gather around for one last group picture!"
We took the picture with all of our eyes watery from the future goodbyes about to occur.
"Thanks Agua for being there for me" Blink hugged and kissed her before going in
"You're one tough girl, Brink, don't know how I'll do with out you" Jake told her before he hugged and kissed her and left
"We'll always love you Mush even though you're were a jerk to us, but hey, you're Mush, you and only you can get away with it" Look Out said with the rest of the fan club
"About that, I'm really sorry, I'm just not used to that many girls liking me"
"We forgive you! Now give us good bye kisses!"
"I'll miss you Saphhy"
"I got you something Race" Saphhy handed him a Game Boy "Now you don't have to give up video games and play all you want and for free"
"(BeeeeeeP) you're the greatest!!"
"It even has the Frogger game you love"
While everybody was saying their goodbyes I walked over to Sarah
"I'm sorry, I can't take your place"
"I understand" she said expressionlessly
Gin came over as well
"Well, I guess this good bye Sarah"
"What you're going to punch me again"
"I'm not going to punch you, I'd have to have a good, is there a good reason?"
"No"
I go over to Jack who was standing there.
"I'm taking your word for it, I'm staying, I thought a lot about it and it wouldn't be right for me to take her place. I love you and want to be with you and that was the only way for us to be together"
"If only there was another way, but unfortunately there isn't" Jack said, we hugged
"I would say 'write' but you can't"
"Whenever you miss me just watch me, I'll be starring back, I'll be there whenever you need me"
" Remember, we'll always have Brooklyn" Spot kissed Loud Mouth "Here's lookin' at you kid" Spot winked as he jumped through…Loud Mouth stood there
"Oh, hell! Spot I'm coming with you!" Loud Mouth said
"Loud Mouth, you can't!" I said
"Don't worry about me, Azure, I'll be alright" she hugged me "This is what I always wanted" she assured me before she jumped in after Spot
Somewhere Out There
It's been a few days since our unforgettable, crazy adventure. I miss him and Loud Mouth but I knew I made the right choice. I had to stay. Now here I am alone in my living room. Luckily there was a Christian Bale marathon of his movies since he recently got the part of Batman. I was watching Empire of the Sun, when the phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hello Azure"
It was Dot, shit!
"This is about the credit card isn't it?"
"Oh yeah"
"Listen I can explain!"
"How can you explain four thousand dollars!!"
"The boys needed clothes so I borrowed money off your card, I'll pay you back, I have the money"
"I'm sure you do" She said sarcastically
"I do! Come by today and I'll give you the money"
"Fine, you better have it"
She hung up the phone, I put the phone back on the cord and went to the kitchen. The phone suddenly rang again. I picked it up.
"What now Dot?!!"
"Dot? This is Riley"
"Oh my god I'm sorry Riley!"
"So how are you ever since you know what"
"Fine I guess," complete lie "why?"
"I just wanted to check up on you, I'm a little worried about you, you took it the hardest"
"Don't worry about me, I'll be alright, I promise"
"Man, I wish there was some way for them to stay here"
"Yeah, me too"
"I also called to ask you something"
"What?"
"Is it the DVD that got you guys in there or the TV"
"I'm not quite sure on what you mean"
"Well I've been doing some thinking, I don't think it's the DVD that sent you there"
"Why not"
"When I picked up Spot, we went to my house first and I put on the DVD in nothing happened, everything was normal, the way it was. So after Spot mentioned you I went to your house and that's how we got the Brookies and everything. Then after they retuned and Loud Mouth went with them, I went home and I watched my DVD…Loud Mouth isn't in there! I've looked, everything is the same, I couldn't find her! And there's no mention of her or a character like her on IMDb!"
"I don't understand…It can't be just my TV, if it is then how did Dot get in there?"
FLASHBACK
(Dot enters Azure's house)
"Hello! Azure, you left your door open! I think I left my purse here! Hello?!"
(She walks around the living room looking for Azure)
"Are you even listening to me Azure!"
(She then notices the TV that's on)
"What the hell?…Loud Mouth?"
END OF FLASHBACK
"Azure? Are you listening? Azure?"
Oh my god, I can't believe this
"I'll be right back Riley"
I walk to the TV and look down at the DVD player…it wasn't on…the VCR was, I press eject, the tape popped out, it was the tape of Newsies I got on ebay, the tape I thought was a rip off because it had no label on it or return address, I put the tape back in and pressed play, the screen turned to Jell-O like it did before, the movie was at the near end. Oh my god, there's a way!!
I pick up the phone "You're right Riley, it wasn't the DVD, it was a tape, an old tape I won on ebay"
"So I was right!"
"Yeah, but Riley, do you what this means?!!" I laughed with tears of joy
"No way! You're joking right?! You mean…oh my god!!"
"I have to go, Riley, I'm going back in there"
"You want me to go tell the others?!"
"What do you think? I can have all these newsies to myself?"
"I go tell them then!"
I hung up the phone
"I'm coming Jack"
Meanwhile in the movie…
It was the end of the movie after Jack decided to stay in New York. Azure was hiding in the crowed, she wanted to surprise him.
"Azure? What are you doing here?"
She turned, it was Sarah
"Did you change your mind?!" She asked excitingly
"No Sarah, it's something even better" Azure smiled
She approached Jack pushing her way through the crowed. He looked at her shocked and expecting Sarah instead.
"Azure? Holy shit!" Race said
"AZURE!!" Loud Mouth exclaimed
"What the hell are you doing Azure" David said sternly
"Azure? You came back, why?"
Azure leaned forward and whispered everything in Jack's ear. Jack smiled and kissed her(yep wit that same famous kiss of his)
Little did Azure knew…
"Where's my money Bitch!" Dot stormed in "You said you had it!"
She stopped in front of the TV and then knew where Azure had gone
"Oh no you don't" She stomped her foot "Not again!"
Meanwhile Jack and Azure get in the carriage, everybody was confused
"This isn't suppose to happen!" Mush said
"What do we do?!" Boots asked
"Keep singing!" Race answered
"Stop singing!" David yelled to everyone who just kept on singing "Wait! You can't do this! Why are you going back, you know you can't?!" David yelled while chasing after the carriage
"He can David, all of you can!" Azure yelled out of the carriage
The carriage went off and everyone fallowed it but Loud Mouth stayed behind and looked through the other side of the screen and saw Dot with an evil smile, Loud Mouth than ran after the carriage.
"Azure!! Wait!! Don't go back!! Dot---"
…Loud Mouth was too late
In the carriage
"Are you serious, we can go?" Jack asked astonished
"Yes, you don't have to stay, only if you want to"
"We can be together"
"Forever" Azure smiled
"Not if I can help it" Dot said as she pushed eject on the VCR the same time Azure and Jack jumped off the carriage through the portal…

Playing Sarah
Chapter Title: Somewhere Far From Wonderland
By: JuliAngelFace
Rating: PG
Somewhere far from Wonderland
"Come on, Gin! Hurry up!" Yelled Brink
"I'm coming!" I yelled back trying to catch up
"We don't want to be last in line!" yelled Cards
It was a beautiful day in June, the sun was shining bright, perfect for a class trip to Disneyland and Universal Studios.
"I can't wait to see the set of Newsies!" Vigor exclaimed
Vigor, Cards, Brink, and I were waiting in line for the studio tour tram, and we weren't last as Cards predicted.
"I wonder if it looks the same?" Brink said
"Too bad we can't get out of the tram" Vigor then said
"Well you can, if you sneak off, hell, that's how Stephen Spielberg got discovered, he hopped out of the tram and snuck his script to a producer" I said
"He did not"
"It's true"
"So does that mean you're going sneak off and go give a producer a tape of your singing?" Vigor joked
"They probably have high security nowadays" Cards said "so don't get any ideas"
Too late!
"Gin, what are you giving that look for?! Gin, no! I know what you're thinkin' Gin! No! We can't!"
"Why not!"
"Gin, no!" Cards pleaded
"Well what do we have to lose?!"
"Umn, let's see…our freedom!!"
"So, it'll be worth it!"
"I'm in!" exclaimed Brink
"Me too!" Vigor joined
"It's stupid! We'll get caught!"
"PPPLLEEAASSEE Cards!"
"Come on Cards"
"No"
"Do it for me"
"NO"
"Then do it for the newsies"
"Fine, I guess"
"YES!" I hugged Cards, I whispered to them the plan.
The tram arrived, we got into the third one in the back row.
"Welcome to Universal Studios, I'm Al and I'll be your tour guide today"
We couldn't keep a straight face, we were all excited by what we were attempting to do.
"Stop giggling! We'll look suspicious!" Cards hissed
"Don't worry so much!" I said
The tram drove on, I waited until it stopped in a place where we could hide. Finally after three stops it stop in a Mexican village set and parked close to bushes.
"Now!" I nudged Brink. Luckily, it was just us in the back row. We quietly scooted out of the tram and went into the bushes and hid. We sat in the scratchy bushes until we heard the tram drive off. We emerged out of the bushes.
"Quick! Run, before the next tram comes! Hurry!" I said as I ran and led them out of the Mexican village set. We through the little Europe set, Brink stopped
"Hey, this is where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed!"
"Brink!"
"Okay, I'm going!"
We stopped at a city set
"Is this it?''
"I think so" I said astonished
"Wow, it almost looks the same"
"This is amazing!"
"I'm standing in the same place Jake stood in!"
It felt like we were in Newsies, so this is what it's like…
"I'm going to go into a building" I told them
I remembered the behind the scenes footage where I saw the actors on the roof of one of the buildings. I opened to door and went inside, it was empty with only stairs to the top, it's amazing how realistic and yet unrealistic movie sets are.
"In fact I'm going on the roof"
"Gin, be careful, these sets are old, who knows how safe they are" Cards warned
"I will" I said as I went up the stair, they were a little steep, almost too steep.
Suddenly I heard the noise of a car!
"Shit!" Brink yelled
"Gin! Get down! Someone's coming!"
Oh, no! I ran down the stairs, which isn't good when you're wearing flip flops, I ran as fast as I could…little did I knew that there was a nail sticking straight out, as I ran I tripped and fell…I opened my eyes, I was at the bottom of the stairs, I felt my legs nothing felt broken. I got up and walked out of the fake building. No one was there.
"Brink! Vigor! Cards!" No answer "Where are you guys?!"
They better not have ditched me! I looked around…wait a minute, something about this set was different…there was uncompleted constructed buildings with orange tape surrounding it, I feet felt weird, I look towards the ground…it was dirt…not cobblestone…half the set isn't there…then I saw a sign in front of the tape, something I didn't notice before, it read "Under Construction for 'Newsies', a Christmas release" WHAT THE HELL!! This can't be right! What the hell is happening?!
"Excuse me, miss, are you lost?"
I turned around, I nearly fell to the ground laughing, the man had a mullet with a hat on and glasses and was wearing acid wash jeans and had a Hawaiian shirt on in a golf cart, for some reason he looked familiar.
"You must be here for the auditions, am I right"
"Why yes, I am" I lied because if he knew the real reason I was here I'll be in big trouble.
"The auditions are that way in the building near studio 16, here let me drive you there"
"Umn, okay" I said, what do I have to lose?
I got on the golf cart with him.
"So what's your name?"
"Christina"
"So why do you want this role Christina?"
"Umn, I don't know, because the part seems, umn, nice"
"How old are you?"
"Seventeen, almost eighteen"
"Oh, okay, pretty close to Christian, have you acted before?"
"Only in school musicals"
Why is he asking me all of these questions?
"So you can sing then?"
"Umn, yeah and dance too"
We were at the studio where there was a huge line of teenage girls in front of it, the line was all the way around the building!
"Here we are!"
"Um, thank you…?"
"Call me Kenny"
KENNY! Oh my god!! No wonder he looked so familiar!
"You're…you're…you're Kenny Ortega?!"
"Yeah, that's me, listen, you don't have to wait in this line, I'll bring you inside to meet the producers and writers, I think you got something"
But what is the part?! I don't know what I'm doing! Why is everybody dressed so weird and where's Cards, Brink, and Vigor?! I can't make sense of this!
…Then I saw a newspaper on the ground, I picked it up…Oh my god…I'M IN 1991!!
"Right this way Christina"
That's what the auditions are for...for Sarah
Kenny led me in to the studio through the line of girls, inside they're were six adults sitting at a table, there was also a piano with a piano player.
"Christina this is the writers Noni White and Bob Tzudiker and our producers Michael Finnel, Ira Shuman, and Marianne Sweeny, and our casting director Elisabeth Leusting"
"Christina can you sing for us" the casting lady at the end of the table asked
"Sing what?" I asked…oh my god, I'm auditioning for Sarah!
"Anything really, just tell George right there what song and he'll play it"
What song should I sing?! Okay, think of something that'll make Ele look bad.
"Circle of Life from Lion King" I said
"Huh?"
Oh crap! That hasn't come out yet!
"Sorry, Can't Help Lovin' That Man of Mine from Showboat"
I nervously sang, my hands were shaking, I tried my best at over emphasizing the high notes. They clapped when I finished.
"That was really impressive!" said the women writer
"Thank you"
"Can I see your resume, honey?" asked the casting lady
Shit! So close!
"Umn, oh man, I think I forgot it or left it in the car" I said hesitantly
"Do you have an agent at least?"
Damn!
"Not really" I said back nervously
The lady was about to say something but Kenny cut in.
"Why don't you come back tomorrow to do a screen test for us with a resume and written parental consent"
"Christian's also coming tomorrow for another screen test Kenny, have you told him it was a musical yet?"
Christian…as in Christian Bale…I meeting up with Christian Bale…Tomorrow!
"No I haven't but I'll inform him tomorrow, I'm sure he'll won't mind the change"
Oh no! I remember he got mad at that! …and I'll be there to witness it!
"You better not pull the Al Pacino trick on him" one of the men joked
Holy crap! I'm in 1991, I might get the part of Sarah, and I'm meeting up with Christian Bale tomorrow to do a screen test…HOW IN THE HELL DID THIS HAPPEN?!!
***
Now a special sneak preview of Back to the Reality!(Come on, did you guys really think I'd leave you hanging?!)
***
"Where are we Azure" Jack asked
"I don't know"
We were in a sorta wilderness place. It was hot, extremely hot…something about it was very familiar. I looked towards Jack, he wasn't wearing his 1899 outfit, instead he was wearing worn out kaki pants and a faded blue button down shirt.
"What are you wearing?" I asked
"I was about to ask the same thing"
I looked down, I was wearing a loose dress, which was also faded, it looked old fashioned too…like from the 40s
"I don't think we're in New York anymore" Jack stated
"I don't think we're in 1899 anymore" I quipped
There was a sliver container connected to material on the ground, I walked towards it…I've seen this before
"Azure? What is it?"
No! It can't be!!
"Holy shit…WE'RE IN EMPIRE OF THE SUN!!!"
Meanwhile Dot was at the airport at the front desk
"I like you to book me into your next flight to Hawaii" Dot said while holding her purse with the Newsies tape inside…
(You're right, I would leave you hanging. Sorry, you'll have to wait till summer)

"Reunion?" Trey asked confused
"Yeah, remember? You're at the Newsies reunion"
"What really? I could of sworn I saw myself on stage with Arvie and Michael"

"I'm sorry, I can't take your place"
"I understand" she said expressionlessly
Gin came over as well
"Well, I guess this good bye Sarah"
"What you're going to punch me again"
"I'm not going to punch you, I'd have to have a good, is there a good reason?"
"No"
I go over to Jack who was standing there.
"I'm taking your word for it, I'm staying, I thought a lot about it and it wouldn't be right for me to take her place. I love you and want to be with you and that was the only way for us to be together"
"If only there was another way, but unfortunately there isn't" Jack said, we hugged
"I would say 'write' but you can't"
"Whenever you miss me just watch me, I'll be starring back, I'll be there whenever you need me"
" Remember, we'll always have Brooklyn" Spot kissed Loud Mouth "Here's lookin' at you kid" Spot winked as he jumped through…Loud Mouth stood there
"Oh, hell! Spot I'm coming with you!" Loud Mouth said
"Loud Mouth, you can't!" I said
"Don't worry about me, Azure, I'll be alright" she hugged me "This is what I always wanted" she assured me before she jumped in after Spot
Somewhere Out There
It's been a few days since our unforgettable, crazy adventure. I miss him and Loud Mouth but I knew I made the right choice. I had to stay. Now here I am alone in my living room. Luckily there was a Christian Bale marathon of his movies since he recently got the part of Batman. I was watching Empire of the Sun, when the phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hello Azure"
It was Dot, shit!
"This is about the credit card isn't it?"
"Oh yeah"
"Listen I can explain!"
"How can you explain four thousand dollars!!"
"The boys needed clothes so I borrowed money off your card, I'll pay you back, I have the money"
"I'm sure you do" She said sarcastically
"I do! Come by today and I'll give you the money"
"Fine, you better have it"
She hung up the phone, I put the phone back on the cord and went to the kitchen. The phone suddenly rang again. I picked it up.
"What now Dot?!!"
"Dot? This is Riley"
"Oh my god I'm sorry Riley!"
"So how are you ever since you know what"
"Fine I guess," complete lie "why?"
"I just wanted to check up on you, I'm a little worried about you, you took it the hardest"
"Don't worry about me, I'll be alright, I promise"
"Man, I wish there was some way for them to stay here"
"Yeah, me too"
"I also called to ask you something"
"What?"
"Is it the DVD that got you guys in there or the TV"
"I'm not quite sure on what you mean"
"Well I've been doing some thinking, I don't think it's the DVD that sent you there"
"Why not"
"When I picked up Spot, we went to my house first and I put on the DVD in nothing happened, everything was normal, the way it was. So after Spot mentioned you I went to your house and that's how we got the Brookies and everything. Then after they retuned and Loud Mouth went with them, I went home and I watched my DVD…Loud Mouth isn't in there! I've looked, everything is the same, I couldn't find her! And there's no mention of her or a character like her on IMDb!"
"I don't understand…It can't be just my TV, if it is then how did Dot get in there?"
FLASHBACK
(Dot enters Azure's house)
"Hello! Azure, you left your door open! I think I left my purse here! Hello?!"
(She walks around the living room looking for Azure)
"Are you even listening to me Azure!"
(She then notices the TV that's on)
"What the hell?…Loud Mouth?"
END OF FLASHBACK
"Azure? Are you listening? Azure?"
Oh my god, I can't believe this
"I'll be right back Riley"
I walk to the TV and look down at the DVD player…it wasn't on…the VCR was, I press eject, the tape popped out, it was the tape of Newsies I got on ebay, the tape I thought was a rip off because it had no label on it or return address, I put the tape back in and pressed play, the screen turned to Jell-O like it did before, the movie was at the near end. Oh my god, there's a way!!
I pick up the phone "You're right Riley, it wasn't the DVD, it was a tape, an old tape I won on ebay"
"So I was right!"
"Yeah, but Riley, do you what this means?!!" I laughed with tears of joy
"No way! You're joking right?! You mean…oh my god!!"
"I have to go, Riley, I'm going back in there"
"You want me to go tell the others?!"
"What do you think? I can have all these newsies to myself?"
"I go tell them then!"
I hung up the phone
"I'm coming Jack"
Meanwhile in the movie…
It was the end of the movie after Jack decided to stay in New York. Azure was hiding in the crowed, she wanted to surprise him.
"Azure? What are you doing here?"
She turned, it was Sarah
"Did you change your mind?!" She asked excitingly
"No Sarah, it's something even better" Azure smiled
She approached Jack pushing her way through the crowed. He looked at her shocked and expecting Sarah instead.
"Azure? Holy shit!" Race said
"AZURE!!" Loud Mouth exclaimed
"What the hell are you doing Azure" David said sternly
"Azure? You came back, why?"
Azure leaned forward and whispered everything in Jack's ear. Jack smiled and kissed her(yep wit that same famous kiss of his)
Little did Azure knew…
"Where's my money Bitch!" Dot stormed in "You said you had it!"
She stopped in front of the TV and then knew where Azure had gone
"Oh no you don't" She stomped her foot "Not again!"
Meanwhile Jack and Azure get in the carriage, everybody was confused
"This isn't suppose to happen!" Mush said
"What do we do?!" Boots asked
"Keep singing!" Race answered
"Stop singing!" David yelled to everyone who just kept on singing "Wait! You can't do this! Why are you going back, you know you can't?!" David yelled while chasing after the carriage
"He can David, all of you can!" Azure yelled out of the carriage
The carriage went off and everyone fallowed it but Loud Mouth stayed behind and looked through the other side of the screen and saw Dot with an evil smile, Loud Mouth than ran after the carriage.
"Azure!! Wait!! Don't go back!! Dot---"
…Loud Mouth was too late
In the carriage
"Are you serious, we can go?" Jack asked astonished
"Yes, you don't have to stay, only if you want to"
"We can be together"
"Forever" Azure smiled
"Not if I can help it" Dot said as she pushed eject on the VCR the same time Azure and Jack jumped off the carriage through the portal…
To be continued in…

Playing Sarah
Chapter Title: Somewhere Far From Wonderland
By: JuliAngelFace
Rating: PG
Somewhere far from Wonderland
"Come on, Gin! Hurry up!" Yelled Brink
"I'm coming!" I yelled back trying to catch up
"We don't want to be last in line!" yelled Cards
It was a beautiful day in June, the sun was shining bright, perfect for a class trip to Disneyland and Universal Studios.
"I can't wait to see the set of Newsies!" Vigor exclaimed
Vigor, Cards, Brink, and I were waiting in line for the studio tour tram, and we weren't last as Cards predicted.
"I wonder if it looks the same?" Brink said
"Too bad we can't get out of the tram" Vigor then said
"Well you can, if you sneak off, hell, that's how Stephen Spielberg got discovered, he hopped out of the tram and snuck his script to a producer" I said
"He did not"
"It's true"
"So does that mean you're going sneak off and go give a producer a tape of your singing?" Vigor joked
"They probably have high security nowadays" Cards said "so don't get any ideas"
Too late!
"Gin, what are you giving that look for?! Gin, no! I know what you're thinkin' Gin! No! We can't!"
"Why not!"
"Gin, no!" Cards pleaded
"Well what do we have to lose?!"
"Umn, let's see…our freedom!!"
"So, it'll be worth it!"
"I'm in!" exclaimed Brink
"Me too!" Vigor joined
"It's stupid! We'll get caught!"
"PPPLLEEAASSEE Cards!"
"Come on Cards"
"No"
"Do it for me"
"NO"
"Then do it for the newsies"
"Fine, I guess"
"YES!" I hugged Cards, I whispered to them the plan.
The tram arrived, we got into the third one in the back row.
"Welcome to Universal Studios, I'm Al and I'll be your tour guide today"
We couldn't keep a straight face, we were all excited by what we were attempting to do.
"Stop giggling! We'll look suspicious!" Cards hissed
"Don't worry so much!" I said
The tram drove on, I waited until it stopped in a place where we could hide. Finally after three stops it stop in a Mexican village set and parked close to bushes.
"Now!" I nudged Brink. Luckily, it was just us in the back row. We quietly scooted out of the tram and went into the bushes and hid. We sat in the scratchy bushes until we heard the tram drive off. We emerged out of the bushes.
"Quick! Run, before the next tram comes! Hurry!" I said as I ran and led them out of the Mexican village set. We through the little Europe set, Brink stopped
"Hey, this is where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed!"
"Brink!"
"Okay, I'm going!"
We stopped at a city set
"Is this it?''
"I think so" I said astonished
"Wow, it almost looks the same"
"This is amazing!"
"I'm standing in the same place Jake stood in!"
It felt like we were in Newsies, so this is what it's like…
"I'm going to go into a building" I told them
I remembered the behind the scenes footage where I saw the actors on the roof of one of the buildings. I opened to door and went inside, it was empty with only stairs to the top, it's amazing how realistic and yet unrealistic movie sets are.
"In fact I'm going on the roof"
"Gin, be careful, these sets are old, who knows how safe they are" Cards warned
"I will" I said as I went up the stair, they were a little steep, almost too steep.
Suddenly I heard the noise of a car!
"Shit!" Brink yelled
"Gin! Get down! Someone's coming!"
Oh, no! I ran down the stairs, which isn't good when you're wearing flip flops, I ran as fast as I could…little did I knew that there was a nail sticking straight out, as I ran I tripped and fell…I opened my eyes, I was at the bottom of the stairs, I felt my legs nothing felt broken. I got up and walked out of the fake building. No one was there.
"Brink! Vigor! Cards!" No answer "Where are you guys?!"
They better not have ditched me! I looked around…wait a minute, something about this set was different…there was uncompleted constructed buildings with orange tape surrounding it, I feet felt weird, I look towards the ground…it was dirt…not cobblestone…half the set isn't there…then I saw a sign in front of the tape, something I didn't notice before, it read "Under Construction for 'Newsies', a Christmas release" WHAT THE HELL!! This can't be right! What the hell is happening?!
"Excuse me, miss, are you lost?"
I turned around, I nearly fell to the ground laughing, the man had a mullet with a hat on and glasses and was wearing acid wash jeans and had a Hawaiian shirt on in a golf cart, for some reason he looked familiar.
"You must be here for the auditions, am I right"
"Why yes, I am" I lied because if he knew the real reason I was here I'll be in big trouble.
"The auditions are that way in the building near studio 16, here let me drive you there"
"Umn, okay" I said, what do I have to lose?
I got on the golf cart with him.
"So what's your name?"
"Christina"
"So why do you want this role Christina?"
"Umn, I don't know, because the part seems, umn, nice"
"How old are you?"
"Seventeen, almost eighteen"
"Oh, okay, pretty close to Christian, have you acted before?"
"Only in school musicals"
Why is he asking me all of these questions?
"So you can sing then?"
"Umn, yeah and dance too"
We were at the studio where there was a huge line of teenage girls in front of it, the line was all the way around the building!
"Here we are!"
"Um, thank you…?"
"Call me Kenny"
KENNY! Oh my god!! No wonder he looked so familiar!
"You're…you're…you're Kenny Ortega?!"
"Yeah, that's me, listen, you don't have to wait in this line, I'll bring you inside to meet the producers and writers, I think you got something"
But what is the part?! I don't know what I'm doing! Why is everybody dressed so weird and where's Cards, Brink, and Vigor?! I can't make sense of this!
…Then I saw a newspaper on the ground, I picked it up…Oh my god…I'M IN 1991!!
"Right this way Christina"
That's what the auditions are for...for Sarah
Kenny led me in to the studio through the line of girls, inside they're were six adults sitting at a table, there was also a piano with a piano player.
"Christina this is the writers Noni White and Bob Tzudiker and our producers Michael Finnel, Ira Shuman, and Marianne Sweeny, and our casting director Elisabeth Leusting"
"Christina can you sing for us" the casting lady at the end of the table asked
"Sing what?" I asked…oh my god, I'm auditioning for Sarah!
"Anything really, just tell George right there what song and he'll play it"
What song should I sing?! Okay, think of something that'll make Ele look bad.
"Circle of Life from Lion King" I said
"Huh?"
Oh crap! That hasn't come out yet!
"Sorry, Can't Help Lovin' That Man of Mine from Showboat"
I nervously sang, my hands were shaking, I tried my best at over emphasizing the high notes. They clapped when I finished.
"That was really impressive!" said the women writer
"Thank you"
"Can I see your resume, honey?" asked the casting lady
Shit! So close!
"Umn, oh man, I think I forgot it or left it in the car" I said hesitantly
"Do you have an agent at least?"
Damn!
"Not really" I said back nervously
The lady was about to say something but Kenny cut in.
"Why don't you come back tomorrow to do a screen test for us with a resume and written parental consent"
"Christian's also coming tomorrow for another screen test Kenny, have you told him it was a musical yet?"
Christian…as in Christian Bale…I meeting up with Christian Bale…Tomorrow!
"No I haven't but I'll inform him tomorrow, I'm sure he'll won't mind the change"
Oh no! I remember he got mad at that! …and I'll be there to witness it!
"You better not pull the Al Pacino trick on him" one of the men joked
Holy crap! I'm in 1991, I might get the part of Sarah, and I'm meeting up with Christian Bale tomorrow to do a screen test…HOW IN THE HELL DID THIS HAPPEN?!!
***
Now a special sneak preview of Back to the Reality!(Come on, did you guys really think I'd leave you hanging?!)
***
"Where are we Azure" Jack asked
"I don't know"
We were in a sorta wilderness place. It was hot, extremely hot…something about it was very familiar. I looked towards Jack, he wasn't wearing his 1899 outfit, instead he was wearing worn out kaki pants and a faded blue button down shirt.
"What are you wearing?" I asked
"I was about to ask the same thing"
I looked down, I was wearing a loose dress, which was also faded, it looked old fashioned too…like from the 40s
"I don't think we're in New York anymore" Jack stated
"I don't think we're in 1899 anymore" I quipped
There was a sliver container connected to material on the ground, I walked towards it…I've seen this before
"Azure? What is it?"
No! It can't be!!
"Holy shit…WE'RE IN EMPIRE OF THE SUN!!!"
Meanwhile Dot was at the airport at the front desk
"I like you to book me into your next flight to Hawaii" Dot said while holding her purse with the Newsies tape inside…
(You're right, I would leave you hanging. Sorry, you'll have to wait till summer)
