Chapter Four: Two is a crowd in a movie audition
"So are you talking to her yet?" Tala asked as he jumped into Kai's car, literally flipping over Kai's door and jumping into the seat. "Or are you still mad at her?"
Kai looked over at Tala, pulling his sunglasses down, lower on his sunglasses, rolled his eyes and then pushed them back up. "I'm not mad at her."
Tala rolled his eyes. "I guess you're not talking to her still. Come on Kai, it's been three days since she did it. She must have apologized to you about a million times."
Kai turned the corner, purposely so that his head would be out of sight of Tala's. "She hasn't apologized at all."
"What?" Tala exclaimed, looking over at Kai who was intentionally avoiding his eyes. "Why in the hell not?"
Kai shrugged. "How on earth am I supposed to know? She's my girlfriend, it's not my job to read her mind and know exactly what is going on. She won't tell me, so I don't know."
"Well why don't you just go over there and talk to her? Maybe she forgot your phone number or something. Maybe she's afraid that you don't want her to phone you so she won't."
Kai took another left and sighed. "My phone number is imprinted in a magnet on her fridge. She's never been afraid to phone me before, not ever."
"Well, she's never done anything like that before either, now has she?" Tala threw a piece of paper at Kai, something he had found on the floor.
Kai picked it up and unfolded it with one hand while switching his eyes between the road and the piece of paper routinely. "Where'd you get this?"
Tala shrugged. "On the floor."
Kai finished unfolding the letter. "But there was nothing there this morning, I just had my people clean this car up." Kai passed the letter back to Tala. "Read it for me."
Tala took it and skimmed over it. "It's from your girlfriend, of course." Tala skimmed it again and laughed. "You may not have wanted me to read this man, it's kinda hot and heavy."
Kai growled. "Tala, just read the god damn fucking thing."
Tala whistled. "Whoa Kai, didn't your grandfather ever teach you that it was bad to swear just because you were mad?"
"Yes, but he was a hypocrite. Now tell me what the fuck it says."
Tala smirked. "Fine then. Alright it says 'Hiya Kai. I left this with one of your servant who said they would put it somewhere where you would find it. I miss you. If you're still mad at me, I can understand it, I don't know what I was thinking. But if you're not, why don't you come and meet me at my place at about nine tonight. I want to make it up to you." Tala whistled. "Man, I told you that that chick was that kind of woman."
Kai took his eyes off the road long enough to give Tala a death glare. "If I ever hear you say that again I'll-"
Tala cut him off. "You won't do anything but if it makes you feel any better, I was just kidding. Anyways, as far as you've told me, she's probably just planning a late dinner and movie or something."
Kai nodded and then pulled into the theater parking lot. "Lets hope so."

"So what do you think we're going to have to do now? I mean, we've read for them, so now what?" Tempest asked, tucking a strand of hair behind her ears. "Do you think we're going to have to act now?"
Bryan shrugged and hugged his girlfriend tight. "I dunno Tempest, I don't have to worry about it, remember?"
Tempest sighed and shook her head. "Yah, I remember but you could at least attempt to think of what I'm going to have to do today. I don't want to do anything disgusting and if they even try to make me, I'm so leaving."
Bryan smirked and looked Tempest over, knowing that she wouldn't leave unless it was really really bad and the idea of that was absurd, especially since they'd have to get like 100 people to do the same thing. That was just be stupid. "Well, I'll be out here waiting for you in the car to make your getaway."
Tempest rolled her eyes at Bryan. "Oh, I see. Surrre you will." Tempest pecked him on the mouth. "You're so supportive Bryan."
Bryan grinned. "I know I am."
Tempest just rolled his eyes and looked away and at that moment Kai chose to park next to them and both him and Tala jumped out of the car. "Morning." Bryan called to them but neither of them answered. Bryan shrugged, not really surprised that neither of them would say anything.
"When do we start?" Kai asked.
"Any minute now." Tempest replied. "They'll be calling us in, by name, to go and make even bigger fools of ourselves."
"Cool." Kai said and then leaned against the trunk of his car and crossed his arms as he stared up at the theater, waiting for someone to come out and begin calling people.
Tempest looked at Kai and then at the ground and then back up at Kai. "Why isn't Krys with you?" Tempest studied Kai's face. "Don't tell me that you are still not talking to her because of that stupid spray paint thing. I mean, come on, most of it was washable anyway and the room needed to be repainted so it's not like it was an earth-shattering crime."
Kai set his face in an emotionless state and stared directly in front of him and refused to reply. Bryan noticed that response immediately, obviously Krys and Kai hadn't made up yet.
"Why haven't you talked to her?" Raye asked, coming up from behind Kai, Joey in tow as usual. "It's not going to kill your reputation. Hell, you probably ruin it more often than she ever could."
Kai's eyes set into a harder glare and Bryan knew that he was trying not to yell at anyone. He definitely didn't like being told what to do when it came to his girlfriend, or anything else come to think of this. Surprisingly though, he was holding his temper pretty well.
"Just leave him alone." Bryan said finally, figuring that while Kai was keeping his temper in check right now he might not be able to keep it in cheek much longer.
Tempest and Raye both turned to Bryan and glared. "Look, we're trying to correct a romance gone wrong." Raye said. "So if you want to just watch it go up in smoke, than you can but I won't."
Joey cleared his throat. "Come on Raye, Kai will fix it. He's not heartless you know. He probably will talk to her before too long. I think that he likes her too much to just throw it away. So all you're doing, if anything, is probably keeping him for going there just because he doesn't like to follow other people's ideas and such."
Raye sighed and kissed her boyfriend on the cheek. "You know what Joey, you're probably right." Raye sighed. "Why do you always have to be right? Why can't you be wrong once in a while? Hmm?" Raye ruffled his hair and then went through the task of fixing it.
Bryan and Kai both rolled their eyes at Raye and caught the movement in each other's eyes. They both lifted their eyes to heaven and then went back to glaring at nothing.

"You two." The director said, pointing to Kai and Tempest. "Both of you in my office now." Kai and Tempest looked at each other, Kai glared at her actually and then they followed the director.
"It had to be you." Tempest muttered.
Kai shrugged. "I don't feel too happy about this either. Do you think that I want to do this stupid audition thing with you? I don't think so."
Tempest merely stuck her nose in the air. "Hn."
"Alrighty now. The first thing I want you to do is to take a deep breath."
Tempest did so and closed her eyes. Kai on the other hand, just continued to glare at both the director and Tempest. The director, Jeremy Colespawn, looked over at Kai and opened his mouth to say something to Kai but then closed it, deciding that, if what had happened last time had been any clue, Kai wasn't the kind of person that would take that kind of thing easily.
"So, what exactly are we doing?" Tempest asked Jeremy. "Oh and by the way, I don't think I caught your name." Tempest smiled Jeremy's way only to stop when she realized that Kai was watching her.
"His name is Jeremy Colespawn, if you must know." Kai said tonelessly. "Now, what exactly are we doing? And why in the hell am I in a partnership thing with her?"
Jeremy swallowed and tried to smile at Kai but found that Kai's glare kept it from happening. "I just want to uh, see how you would work with other people you know, after all, no good actor can star in a movie by himself."
Kai merely grunted.
"So we're going to just do a simple drama game and that's all I want you two to do." Jeremy said, he motioned to the chairs. "You two sit there and I'll explain the game."
Kai grunted again. "Why in the hell do we have to play a friggin' game?"
Jeremy smiled sheepishly. "Well, I just thought-"
Kai shook his head. "Lets just get this over with, alright?" Kai took a seat and stared at the wall, crossing his arms as was his habit.
Tempest smiled apologetically at the director and then sat down next to Kai, facing Jeremy, waiting for the instructions.
"This game is really easy. I'm going to draw two roles out of this hat and you're going to act them out and communicate with each other without breaking roles and then I'm going to give you each different topics to you and you have to talk without breaking them. First one to screw up loses."
"And what do we lose?" Kai asked simply, bringing his eyes slowly from the wall to fall across Jeremy's face.
"You don't go on, it's as simple as that." Jeremy said.
"Easy way to cut half of them, huh?" Kai asked. "But kind of stupid because then some of the better ones might just screw up on accident and then you'll have the worst people here going on. But hey, what do I know?"
Jeremy growled. "Can we just do this?"
Kai shrugged. "Sure, whatever."
"Alright." Jeremy reaches in the hat. "You, Kai are a cowboy."
"Yeehaw." Kai said sarcastically.
Jeremy chose to ignore that. "And you, Tempest is it?"
Tempest nodded.
Jeremy smiled. "And you are a canadian." {A/N: don't take anything beyond this insulting. I'm canadian too and I know we don't say 'eh' after every sentence. Sheesh, what a load of shit, eh?}
Tempest rolled her eyes. "Alright then."
Jeremy turned to Kai. "You'll be talking about the weather, Tempest, you about the stars and planets and such."
Kai rolled his eyes. "Sure, whatever you say partner."
Tempest nodded. "Sounds like fun."
Jeremy wrote something down and then looked up. "Alright, you may start now."
"Howdy there little missy." Kai said in a southern drawl {A/N: can you just picture this?}. Kai even pretended to tip an invisible hat.
Tempest giggled. "Hi there, eh?"
Kai pretended to take off his invisible hat and scratched his head. "So, uh, whose this 'A' person?"
"Not 'A' eh, eh?" {A/N: That made no sense whatsoever}
Kai blinked and put his invisible hat back on and looked up at the ceiling. "Ain't seen no rain for three days. Not good for the crops, you know?"
"That's cause Pluto is just in the wrong spot tonight." Tempest said and then realized she hadn't said eh. "Shit, eh."
Jeremy wrote something else down. "Continue."
Kai pretended to pick up a piece of wheat and chewed on it. "Ah don't know nothin' about Pluto but I do know that at this rate we just might have ourselves a major sand storm soon."
Tempest raised her eyebrow. "But the planets didn't say anything about a sand storm, eh?"
Kai shrugged. "Ah wouldn't know ma'am, Ah just a farm boy."
Tempest shook her head. "Don't you know anything about reading boy, eh? Didn't you ever look up at the stars at night, eh?"
Kai nodded. "Of course ah did, we were usually still working when the stars came out."
"Kai, I want you to leave the room, come back in and be a cat lover this time." Jeremy said all of a sudden.
Kai nodded. "Ah gotta go." Kai tipped his hat. "It was nice talking to y'all though. Maybe Ah'll see you around." With that Kai walked out the door and in a few minutes he walked back in and sat back in his chair.
Jeremy winked at Tempest and Kai realized that they had words while he was gone. Tempest looked at Kai and got down on her hands and knees and bowed. "I am not worthy."
Kai skimmed the top of his head quickly, trying to figure out how to work with this without breaking role. "Of course you're not worthy." Kai pretended to hold a cat in his arms. "Isn't Muffy just the sweetest little thing you've ever seen?"
Jeremy laughed and wrote something down.
"Oh no master, I praise you." Tempest said, bowing so low her head touched the ground. "I shalln't look at you now. I am not worthy of seeing your great beauty."
"Well of course you're not, I mean look at her. I spent three hours today just grooming her, that doesn't include the pedicure I got her, or the mud bath she was giving. I mean, cats have to look their best too." Kai was now talking in a scotish-sounding woman's voice.
"Oh master, you're right. I have been neglecting cats all my life. All those times I have been mean to cats, I was being mean to you, wasn't I?" Tempest began to pretend to sob. "Oh master, I'm so so sorry."
Jeremy wrote something more down. "Alright ladies." Kai glared at Jeremy. Jeremy winced. "I mean people. That's all I need right now. Thanks for everything. I'm sure you can find your way out and I want to congradulate you on your great preformance."
Kai got up and walked out of the room without a word while Tempest followed Kai at a slower pace with a longer look on her face.

{A/N: I think this might be a really long chapter people. 'Cause I want to put everyone in here and that means *calculates this* three more scenes like that *smirks* alright this might be fun but then again I might run out of ideas...*shakes her head and decides that if she does she'll just email sarah* poor sarah}
"Alright, next two." Sandra Donavinch said and looked over the crowd, her eyes finally falling on Raye and Joey. "You two! Come with me."
Joey looked at Raye, smirked and then followed Sandra inside, amused that they should both be called at the same time. This may not be that hard, after all, they both complimented each other usually, and that was probably what they would do in here too.
"Alrighty, this is pretty easy. All you have to do is reach in this hat, pull out a role and act it out. The idea is to try and screw the other person up so that they can't act out their part. It's simple but it'll prove whether or not you're able to slip into character." Sandra said, nodding to both Raye and Joey. "Alright, Raye you go first."
Raye stuck her hand in the hat {A/N: Sandra knows Raye because she tested her last time..remember?}. "Alright." Raye looked at the card. "Uh, it says that I'm an astronaut."
Sandra nodded. "Alright." She turned to Joey. "You can go now-"
"Joey." Joey stated. "My name's Joey." Joey reached into the hat and pulled out a piece of paper, and pushed his white hair out of his face in order to be able to see. "I got a witch's husband." Joey looked up at Sandra. "Uh, how does that work?"
Sandra shrugged. "I don't tell you that, you tell me." Sandra went and sat down. "Alright you two, you may start now."
Raye turned to Joey and tapped him on the head. "Did you know that I've been on the moon three times in the past eight years. That's a record you know."
Joey looked at Raye and closed his eyes, pretending to slip on a mask and then he reopened them and glared at Raye. "How dare you say things like that? What are you, a witch? Flying to the moon on a broomstick? I'll kill you, I say." {A/N: *swoons* Joey looks like Ryou *is happy* and he can act too! *hugs Joey* Joey: *tries to get away from kim*}
Raye stepped back, confused by Joey's outbreak. "Umm, no we fly in a rocket."
"So that's what you call them nowadays, huh? Rockets? Well I don't care what you call them, it's still witch craft no matter what and I'm going to make you confess you witch." Joey grabbed Raye by the arm and, gently, slammed her into the wall. "I will make you melt witch, that is, if you don't confess."
Raye whimpered. "I don't have anything to confess to. Technology is advancing. Soon we'll all be able to go to the moon. Soon people like you will just be memories."
Joey growled. "Is that a threat?" Joey pressed Raye into the wall more firmly. "You think that you witches will be able to take over us. Well you're wrong, good will always triumph over evil. Never will you be able to take over. NEVER!"
Raye gasped as she was pressed into the wall. Joey was actually starting to hurt her. "Get off of me!"
Joey backed up and stepped away. Raye turned around and looked at Sandra. Sandra nodded. "Thank you, both of you for that preformance. We'll get back to you and tell you which one went on."
Joey took Raye's hand but Raye pulled away and stomped out the door. Joey followed her, hoping that he hadn't done something stupid that might cost him his relationship.

Rei stood against the wall and watched uninterestedly as people were randomly pulled from the mob in two until he realized that there was only 12 people left, him, Aurora, Tala and nine of the phony boobed girls. Rei sighed and crossed his fingers, hoping that he wouldn't be stuck with one of the look-at-me-i-got-my-chest-done chicks.
"Alright, you two." A black-haired guy said, pointing to Rei and Aurora. Rei couldn't help but feel relieved that he wouldn't have to be one of the other girls but sorry that Tala would end up being with them. Rei patted Tala on the shoulder when he walked past and Tala rolled his eyes and pretended to gag.
Aurora caught Tala's movement out of the corner of her eyes and turned to glare at him. Tala sighed and silently apologized to her. Rei sighed and followed Aurora and the black-haired guy into a room where he closed the door.
"Alright, hi my name is Jeremy and I'm the male director. All I want you to do is to take a role, that I'll give you, and you to interact with each other while staying true to your role. Alright?" When Aurora and Rei nodded Jeremy smiled. "Alright then. You'll be a damsel in distress." Jeremy said to Aurora and then Jeremy looked at Rei. "And you'll be a guy who wants to find his way home."
Rei groaned. This would be sooo much fun.
Aurora held her hand to her forehead. "Oh woe is me. I am stuck up here with no where to go and no handsome prince to come and rescue me." Aurora opened an eye and peeked out and then sighed and removed her hand. "Hello? Prince?? I think you missed your cue."
Rei pretended to wander into the scene. "Oh hello there, tell me do you know how to get back to the main town?"
Aurora looked at him. "Well, you don't look like what I imagined but hey, what do I know?" Aurora jumped into Rei's arms, Rei barely catching her. "Alright. Save me!"
Rei looked at Aurora confused. "How am I supposed to get back if I'm lugging a..." Rei pretended to look Aurora over. "A whatever-you-call-yourself" Rei dropped Aurora on the ground uncermoniously. "Now, if you don't know where the town is, I'll just be on my way."
Aurora grabbed onto Rei's leg. "Oh no, don't leave me. Please. I need you. Sure, I could just walk back but that wouldn't be princess like. I need someone to save me!!!" Aurora held onto Rei's leg tighter as he attempted to shake her off. "You gotta save me!"
"From what? Your own sanity. I gotta get home!" Rei exclaimed and tried to drag his foot with Aurora attached to it, without much progress. "Now get off!"
"No, if you won't save me, than you have to stay here and wait for someone to rescue both of us." Aurora insisted, trying to keep Rei from moving at all.
Rei groaned. "I will not stand here and wait for someone to come and get us. I'm lost, not in distress. I need a map, not a knight in shining armour. Besides, last I heard, guys weren't supposed to need rescueing."
Aurora glared at Rei, getting up and pretending to brush herself off. "So what exactly are you saying?" Aurora asked. "Are you telling me that just because I'm a girl I have to be rescued and just because you're not you don't have to be?"
Rei looked at Aurora and shrugged. "That might be what I'm saying. I mean come on, there's nothing here to keep you from getting back home. You're just being a girl and not trying."
Aurora slapped Rei, keeping it soft though and Rei barely felt it. "And why don't you just go back the way you came to get back to your house? I think that you're just as bad as I am."
Rei shrugged. "I went around in circles when I tried that."
Aurora growled and tackled Rei to the ground. "And what do you think would happen to me you idiot?"
Jeremy's voice cut in. "Thank you, both of you." Jeremy smiled. "You were great, we'll get back to you in a few days. Thank you."
Rei and Aurora got up and left the room, wondering which one of them would be gone. As far as they could tell, neither of them did anything wrong.

{A/N: One more scene...yay!! Kai & Tala: *glare at kim and Tala shakes the keys* Kim: *sighs* all right, all right, I'm going sheesh}
Tala growled as he watched all of the girls look over at him and then giggle and laugh among themselves. Tala rolled his eyes. What a bunch of idiotic people. It was as if they had to do this sort of thing and actually got something out of it. Yah right, as if he was the kind of person that would actually go out with a freaking phony-chested chick.
"You," The director pointed to Tala. "And you." The director pointed to the chick with the biggest fake boobs out of all of them. Tala rolled his eyes, this was going to suck.
The girl walked slowly on purpose so that she could walk next to Tala and brush up against him every once in a while, causing Tala to stiffen, which she thought was because she liked him. Which caused her to come up and try it again and again, thinking that she was getting some where with Tala. Which she was NOT.
"Alright you two. This game is simple. You draw a role out of the hat, take it, play it and try to not step out of your role. Sound simple." Both Tala and the chick nodded. "Alright, what's your name?"
"Shara." The girl said, coyly.
Tala rolled his eyes. He could tell that she had changed her name at the age of twelve because she thought it would be cooler. What a load of shit. Tala nodded his head though. "Mine's Tala."
"Isn't that girl name?" Shara asked. Tala glared at her and Shara cowered. "Oops, sorry. I didn't mean to-"
"Nevermind about it. I don't care." Tala said and then reached into the hat. "Lets just get this over with."
Shara nodded and reached into the hat herself and pulled her card out. "I got a gay guy." Shara smirked. "This oughta be fun."
{A/N: This could be funny. If she insults gay people Tala's going to punch her out. Remember how Bryan was gay?? Remember how Tala is Bryan's best friend??? *thinks that this will be fun*}
Tala looked at his card. "I'm a salesman."
Shara smirked. "Well then, lets start." Shara went over to Tala and wrapped her arms around him and pulled him close and kissed him. "Hmm, so what's a handsome stud like you doing with out a boyfriend?"
Tala pushed Shara away, if that was her name. "Uh, can i interest you in a free blow up dummy. We no longer have just girls but guys too with real hard cocks!" {A/N: Is this still pg-13??}
Shara smirked. "Are you one of them?"
Tala shook his head. "Sorry sir. I ain't one of the merchandise."
Shara purred. "Too bad 'cause us gay guys tend to be always horny." Shara winked.
Tala attepted to hold his temper on that one. "Sure you are." Tala tried to pull away from Shara.
Shara held fast. "Oh I am." Shara rubbed herself against Tala. "Can't you feel it."
Tala shook his head. "Sorry sir, but I only fuck people who actually match me in size."
Shara looked at Tala shocked and then slapped him. "You asshole!"
Tala held his face in shock that she slapped him and then threw her a right that left her on the ground and walked out, leaving the director to take care of the stupid bitch.
{A/N: Gomen for swearing...*sighs* Anyways...what to you think?? And who do you think I should get rid of??
1. A) Rei or B) Aurora
2. A) Tala or B) Shara
thanks for your help ^_^ }

Chapter Four: Two is a crowd in a movie audition
"So are you talking to her yet?" Tala asked as he jumped into Kai's car, literally flipping over Kai's door and jumping into the seat. "Or are you still mad at her?"
Kai looked over at Tala, pulling his sunglasses down, lower on his sunglasses, rolled his eyes and then pushed them back up. "I'm not mad at her."
Tala rolled his eyes. "I guess you're not talking to her still. Come on Kai, it's been three days since she did it. She must have apologized to you about a million times."
Kai turned the corner, purposely so that his head would be out of sight of Tala's. "She hasn't apologized at all."
"What?" Tala exclaimed, looking over at Kai who was intentionally avoiding his eyes. "Why in the hell not?"
Kai shrugged. "How on earth am I supposed to know? She's my girlfriend, it's not my job to read her mind and know exactly what is going on. She won't tell me, so I don't know."
"Well why don't you just go over there and talk to her? Maybe she forgot your phone number or something. Maybe she's afraid that you don't want her to phone you so she won't."
Kai took another left and sighed. "My phone number is imprinted in a magnet on her fridge. She's never been afraid to phone me before, not ever."
"Well, she's never done anything like that before either, now has she?" Tala threw a piece of paper at Kai, something he had found on the floor.
Kai picked it up and unfolded it with one hand while switching his eyes between the road and the piece of paper routinely. "Where'd you get this?"
Tala shrugged. "On the floor."
Kai finished unfolding the letter. "But there was nothing there this morning, I just had my people clean this car up." Kai passed the letter back to Tala. "Read it for me."
Tala took it and skimmed over it. "It's from your girlfriend, of course." Tala skimmed it again and laughed. "You may not have wanted me to read this man, it's kinda hot and heavy."
Kai growled. "Tala, just read the god damn fucking thing."
Tala whistled. "Whoa Kai, didn't your grandfather ever teach you that it was bad to swear just because you were mad?"
"Yes, but he was a hypocrite. Now tell me what the fuck it says."
Tala smirked. "Fine then. Alright it says 'Hiya Kai. I left this with one of your servant who said they would put it somewhere where you would find it. I miss you. If you're still mad at me, I can understand it, I don't know what I was thinking. But if you're not, why don't you come and meet me at my place at about nine tonight. I want to make it up to you." Tala whistled. "Man, I told you that that chick was that kind of woman."
Kai took his eyes off the road long enough to give Tala a death glare. "If I ever hear you say that again I'll-"
Tala cut him off. "You won't do anything but if it makes you feel any better, I was just kidding. Anyways, as far as you've told me, she's probably just planning a late dinner and movie or something."
Kai nodded and then pulled into the theater parking lot. "Lets hope so."

"So what do you think we're going to have to do now? I mean, we've read for them, so now what?" Tempest asked, tucking a strand of hair behind her ears. "Do you think we're going to have to act now?"
Bryan shrugged and hugged his girlfriend tight. "I dunno Tempest, I don't have to worry about it, remember?"
Tempest sighed and shook her head. "Yah, I remember but you could at least attempt to think of what I'm going to have to do today. I don't want to do anything disgusting and if they even try to make me, I'm so leaving."
Bryan smirked and looked Tempest over, knowing that she wouldn't leave unless it was really really bad and the idea of that was absurd, especially since they'd have to get like 100 people to do the same thing. That was just be stupid. "Well, I'll be out here waiting for you in the car to make your getaway."
Tempest rolled her eyes at Bryan. "Oh, I see. Surrre you will." Tempest pecked him on the mouth. "You're so supportive Bryan."
Bryan grinned. "I know I am."
Tempest just rolled his eyes and looked away and at that moment Kai chose to park next to them and both him and Tala jumped out of the car. "Morning." Bryan called to them but neither of them answered. Bryan shrugged, not really surprised that neither of them would say anything.
"When do we start?" Kai asked.
"Any minute now." Tempest replied. "They'll be calling us in, by name, to go and make even bigger fools of ourselves."
"Cool." Kai said and then leaned against the trunk of his car and crossed his arms as he stared up at the theater, waiting for someone to come out and begin calling people.
Tempest looked at Kai and then at the ground and then back up at Kai. "Why isn't Krys with you?" Tempest studied Kai's face. "Don't tell me that you are still not talking to her because of that stupid spray paint thing. I mean, come on, most of it was washable anyway and the room needed to be repainted so it's not like it was an earth-shattering crime."
Kai set his face in an emotionless state and stared directly in front of him and refused to reply. Bryan noticed that response immediately, obviously Krys and Kai hadn't made up yet.
"Why haven't you talked to her?" Raye asked, coming up from behind Kai, Joey in tow as usual. "It's not going to kill your reputation. Hell, you probably ruin it more often than she ever could."
Kai's eyes set into a harder glare and Bryan knew that he was trying not to yell at anyone. He definitely didn't like being told what to do when it came to his girlfriend, or anything else come to think of this. Surprisingly though, he was holding his temper pretty well.
"Just leave him alone." Bryan said finally, figuring that while Kai was keeping his temper in check right now he might not be able to keep it in cheek much longer.
Tempest and Raye both turned to Bryan and glared. "Look, we're trying to correct a romance gone wrong." Raye said. "So if you want to just watch it go up in smoke, than you can but I won't."
Joey cleared his throat. "Come on Raye, Kai will fix it. He's not heartless you know. He probably will talk to her before too long. I think that he likes her too much to just throw it away. So all you're doing, if anything, is probably keeping him for going there just because he doesn't like to follow other people's ideas and such."
Raye sighed and kissed her boyfriend on the cheek. "You know what Joey, you're probably right." Raye sighed. "Why do you always have to be right? Why can't you be wrong once in a while? Hmm?" Raye ruffled his hair and then went through the task of fixing it.
Bryan and Kai both rolled their eyes at Raye and caught the movement in each other's eyes. They both lifted their eyes to heaven and then went back to glaring at nothing.

"You two." The director said, pointing to Kai and Tempest. "Both of you in my office now." Kai and Tempest looked at each other, Kai glared at her actually and then they followed the director.
"It had to be you." Tempest muttered.
Kai shrugged. "I don't feel too happy about this either. Do you think that I want to do this stupid audition thing with you? I don't think so."
Tempest merely stuck her nose in the air. "Hn."
"Alrighty now. The first thing I want you to do is to take a deep breath."
Tempest did so and closed her eyes. Kai on the other hand, just continued to glare at both the director and Tempest. The director, Jeremy Colespawn, looked over at Kai and opened his mouth to say something to Kai but then closed it, deciding that, if what had happened last time had been any clue, Kai wasn't the kind of person that would take that kind of thing easily.
"So, what exactly are we doing?" Tempest asked Jeremy. "Oh and by the way, I don't think I caught your name." Tempest smiled Jeremy's way only to stop when she realized that Kai was watching her.
"His name is Jeremy Colespawn, if you must know." Kai said tonelessly. "Now, what exactly are we doing? And why in the hell am I in a partnership thing with her?"
Jeremy swallowed and tried to smile at Kai but found that Kai's glare kept it from happening. "I just want to uh, see how you would work with other people you know, after all, no good actor can star in a movie by himself."
Kai merely grunted.
"So we're going to just do a simple drama game and that's all I want you two to do." Jeremy said, he motioned to the chairs. "You two sit there and I'll explain the game."
Kai grunted again. "Why in the hell do we have to play a friggin' game?"
Jeremy smiled sheepishly. "Well, I just thought-"
Kai shook his head. "Lets just get this over with, alright?" Kai took a seat and stared at the wall, crossing his arms as was his habit.
Tempest smiled apologetically at the director and then sat down next to Kai, facing Jeremy, waiting for the instructions.
"This game is really easy. I'm going to draw two roles out of this hat and you're going to act them out and communicate with each other without breaking roles and then I'm going to give you each different topics to you and you have to talk without breaking them. First one to screw up loses."
"And what do we lose?" Kai asked simply, bringing his eyes slowly from the wall to fall across Jeremy's face.
"You don't go on, it's as simple as that." Jeremy said.
"Easy way to cut half of them, huh?" Kai asked. "But kind of stupid because then some of the better ones might just screw up on accident and then you'll have the worst people here going on. But hey, what do I know?"
Jeremy growled. "Can we just do this?"
Kai shrugged. "Sure, whatever."
"Alright." Jeremy reaches in the hat. "You, Kai are a cowboy."
"Yeehaw." Kai said sarcastically.
Jeremy chose to ignore that. "And you, Tempest is it?"
Tempest nodded.
Jeremy smiled. "And you are a canadian." {A/N: don't take anything beyond this insulting. I'm canadian too and I know we don't say 'eh' after every sentence. Sheesh, what a load of shit, eh?}
Tempest rolled her eyes. "Alright then."
Jeremy turned to Kai. "You'll be talking about the weather, Tempest, you about the stars and planets and such."
Kai rolled his eyes. "Sure, whatever you say partner."
Tempest nodded. "Sounds like fun."
Jeremy wrote something down and then looked up. "Alright, you may start now."
"Howdy there little missy." Kai said in a southern drawl {A/N: can you just picture this?}. Kai even pretended to tip an invisible hat.
Tempest giggled. "Hi there, eh?"
Kai pretended to take off his invisible hat and scratched his head. "So, uh, whose this 'A' person?"
"Not 'A' eh, eh?" {A/N: That made no sense whatsoever}
Kai blinked and put his invisible hat back on and looked up at the ceiling. "Ain't seen no rain for three days. Not good for the crops, you know?"
"That's cause Pluto is just in the wrong spot tonight." Tempest said and then realized she hadn't said eh. "Shit, eh."
Jeremy wrote something else down. "Continue."
Kai pretended to pick up a piece of wheat and chewed on it. "Ah don't know nothin' about Pluto but I do know that at this rate we just might have ourselves a major sand storm soon."
Tempest raised her eyebrow. "But the planets didn't say anything about a sand storm, eh?"
Kai shrugged. "Ah wouldn't know ma'am, Ah just a farm boy."
Tempest shook her head. "Don't you know anything about reading boy, eh? Didn't you ever look up at the stars at night, eh?"
Kai nodded. "Of course ah did, we were usually still working when the stars came out."
"Kai, I want you to leave the room, come back in and be a cat lover this time." Jeremy said all of a sudden.
Kai nodded. "Ah gotta go." Kai tipped his hat. "It was nice talking to y'all though. Maybe Ah'll see you around." With that Kai walked out the door and in a few minutes he walked back in and sat back in his chair.
Jeremy winked at Tempest and Kai realized that they had words while he was gone. Tempest looked at Kai and got down on her hands and knees and bowed. "I am not worthy."
Kai skimmed the top of his head quickly, trying to figure out how to work with this without breaking role. "Of course you're not worthy." Kai pretended to hold a cat in his arms. "Isn't Muffy just the sweetest little thing you've ever seen?"
Jeremy laughed and wrote something down.
"Oh no master, I praise you." Tempest said, bowing so low her head touched the ground. "I shalln't look at you now. I am not worthy of seeing your great beauty."
"Well of course you're not, I mean look at her. I spent three hours today just grooming her, that doesn't include the pedicure I got her, or the mud bath she was giving. I mean, cats have to look their best too." Kai was now talking in a scotish-sounding woman's voice.
"Oh master, you're right. I have been neglecting cats all my life. All those times I have been mean to cats, I was being mean to you, wasn't I?" Tempest began to pretend to sob. "Oh master, I'm so so sorry."
Jeremy wrote something more down. "Alright ladies." Kai glared at Jeremy. Jeremy winced. "I mean people. That's all I need right now. Thanks for everything. I'm sure you can find your way out and I want to congradulate you on your great preformance."
Kai got up and walked out of the room without a word while Tempest followed Kai at a slower pace with a longer look on her face.

{A/N: I think this might be a really long chapter people. 'Cause I want to put everyone in here and that means *calculates this* three more scenes like that *smirks* alright this might be fun but then again I might run out of ideas...*shakes her head and decides that if she does she'll just email sarah* poor sarah}
"Alright, next two." Sandra Donavinch said and looked over the crowd, her eyes finally falling on Raye and Joey. "You two! Come with me."
Joey looked at Raye, smirked and then followed Sandra inside, amused that they should both be called at the same time. This may not be that hard, after all, they both complimented each other usually, and that was probably what they would do in here too.
"Alrighty, this is pretty easy. All you have to do is reach in this hat, pull out a role and act it out. The idea is to try and screw the other person up so that they can't act out their part. It's simple but it'll prove whether or not you're able to slip into character." Sandra said, nodding to both Raye and Joey. "Alright, Raye you go first."
Raye stuck her hand in the hat {A/N: Sandra knows Raye because she tested her last time..remember?}. "Alright." Raye looked at the card. "Uh, it says that I'm an astronaut."
Sandra nodded. "Alright." She turned to Joey. "You can go now-"
"Joey." Joey stated. "My name's Joey." Joey reached into the hat and pulled out a piece of paper, and pushed his white hair out of his face in order to be able to see. "I got a witch's husband." Joey looked up at Sandra. "Uh, how does that work?"
Sandra shrugged. "I don't tell you that, you tell me." Sandra went and sat down. "Alright you two, you may start now."
Raye turned to Joey and tapped him on the head. "Did you know that I've been on the moon three times in the past eight years. That's a record you know."
Joey looked at Raye and closed his eyes, pretending to slip on a mask and then he reopened them and glared at Raye. "How dare you say things like that? What are you, a witch? Flying to the moon on a broomstick? I'll kill you, I say." {A/N: *swoons* Joey looks like Ryou *is happy* and he can act too! *hugs Joey* Joey: *tries to get away from kim*}
Raye stepped back, confused by Joey's outbreak. "Umm, no we fly in a rocket."
"So that's what you call them nowadays, huh? Rockets? Well I don't care what you call them, it's still witch craft no matter what and I'm going to make you confess you witch." Joey grabbed Raye by the arm and, gently, slammed her into the wall. "I will make you melt witch, that is, if you don't confess."
Raye whimpered. "I don't have anything to confess to. Technology is advancing. Soon we'll all be able to go to the moon. Soon people like you will just be memories."
Joey growled. "Is that a threat?" Joey pressed Raye into the wall more firmly. "You think that you witches will be able to take over us. Well you're wrong, good will always triumph over evil. Never will you be able to take over. NEVER!"
Raye gasped as she was pressed into the wall. Joey was actually starting to hurt her. "Get off of me!"
Joey backed up and stepped away. Raye turned around and looked at Sandra. Sandra nodded. "Thank you, both of you for that preformance. We'll get back to you and tell you which one went on."
Joey took Raye's hand but Raye pulled away and stomped out the door. Joey followed her, hoping that he hadn't done something stupid that might cost him his relationship.

Rei stood against the wall and watched uninterestedly as people were randomly pulled from the mob in two until he realized that there was only 12 people left, him, Aurora, Tala and nine of the phony boobed girls. Rei sighed and crossed his fingers, hoping that he wouldn't be stuck with one of the look-at-me-i-got-my-chest-done chicks.
"Alright, you two." A black-haired guy said, pointing to Rei and Aurora. Rei couldn't help but feel relieved that he wouldn't have to be one of the other girls but sorry that Tala would end up being with them. Rei patted Tala on the shoulder when he walked past and Tala rolled his eyes and pretended to gag.
Aurora caught Tala's movement out of the corner of her eyes and turned to glare at him. Tala sighed and silently apologized to her. Rei sighed and followed Aurora and the black-haired guy into a room where he closed the door.
"Alright, hi my name is Jeremy and I'm the male director. All I want you to do is to take a role, that I'll give you, and you to interact with each other while staying true to your role. Alright?" When Aurora and Rei nodded Jeremy smiled. "Alright then. You'll be a damsel in distress." Jeremy said to Aurora and then Jeremy looked at Rei. "And you'll be a guy who wants to find his way home."
Rei groaned. This would be sooo much fun.
Aurora held her hand to her forehead. "Oh woe is me. I am stuck up here with no where to go and no handsome prince to come and rescue me." Aurora opened an eye and peeked out and then sighed and removed her hand. "Hello? Prince?? I think you missed your cue."
Rei pretended to wander into the scene. "Oh hello there, tell me do you know how to get back to the main town?"
Aurora looked at him. "Well, you don't look like what I imagined but hey, what do I know?" Aurora jumped into Rei's arms, Rei barely catching her. "Alright. Save me!"
Rei looked at Aurora confused. "How am I supposed to get back if I'm lugging a..." Rei pretended to look Aurora over. "A whatever-you-call-yourself" Rei dropped Aurora on the ground uncermoniously. "Now, if you don't know where the town is, I'll just be on my way."
Aurora grabbed onto Rei's leg. "Oh no, don't leave me. Please. I need you. Sure, I could just walk back but that wouldn't be princess like. I need someone to save me!!!" Aurora held onto Rei's leg tighter as he attempted to shake her off. "You gotta save me!"
"From what? Your own sanity. I gotta get home!" Rei exclaimed and tried to drag his foot with Aurora attached to it, without much progress. "Now get off!"
"No, if you won't save me, than you have to stay here and wait for someone to rescue both of us." Aurora insisted, trying to keep Rei from moving at all.
Rei groaned. "I will not stand here and wait for someone to come and get us. I'm lost, not in distress. I need a map, not a knight in shining armour. Besides, last I heard, guys weren't supposed to need rescueing."
Aurora glared at Rei, getting up and pretending to brush herself off. "So what exactly are you saying?" Aurora asked. "Are you telling me that just because I'm a girl I have to be rescued and just because you're not you don't have to be?"
Rei looked at Aurora and shrugged. "That might be what I'm saying. I mean come on, there's nothing here to keep you from getting back home. You're just being a girl and not trying."
Aurora slapped Rei, keeping it soft though and Rei barely felt it. "And why don't you just go back the way you came to get back to your house? I think that you're just as bad as I am."
Rei shrugged. "I went around in circles when I tried that."
Aurora growled and tackled Rei to the ground. "And what do you think would happen to me you idiot?"
Jeremy's voice cut in. "Thank you, both of you." Jeremy smiled. "You were great, we'll get back to you in a few days. Thank you."
Rei and Aurora got up and left the room, wondering which one of them would be gone. As far as they could tell, neither of them did anything wrong.

{A/N: One more scene...yay!! Kai & Tala: *glare at kim and Tala shakes the keys* Kim: *sighs* all right, all right, I'm going sheesh}
Tala growled as he watched all of the girls look over at him and then giggle and laugh among themselves. Tala rolled his eyes. What a bunch of idiotic people. It was as if they had to do this sort of thing and actually got something out of it. Yah right, as if he was the kind of person that would actually go out with a freaking phony-chested chick.
"You," The director pointed to Tala. "And you." The director pointed to the chick with the biggest fake boobs out of all of them. Tala rolled his eyes, this was going to suck.
The girl walked slowly on purpose so that she could walk next to Tala and brush up against him every once in a while, causing Tala to stiffen, which she thought was because she liked him. Which caused her to come up and try it again and again, thinking that she was getting some where with Tala. Which she was NOT.
"Alright you two. This game is simple. You draw a role out of the hat, take it, play it and try to not step out of your role. Sound simple." Both Tala and the chick nodded. "Alright, what's your name?"
"Shara." The girl said, coyly.
Tala rolled his eyes. He could tell that she had changed her name at the age of twelve because she thought it would be cooler. What a load of shit. Tala nodded his head though. "Mine's Tala."
"Isn't that girl name?" Shara asked. Tala glared at her and Shara cowered. "Oops, sorry. I didn't mean to-"
"Nevermind about it. I don't care." Tala said and then reached into the hat. "Lets just get this over with."
Shara nodded and reached into the hat herself and pulled her card out. "I got a gay guy." Shara smirked. "This oughta be fun."
{A/N: This could be funny. If she insults gay people Tala's going to punch her out. Remember how Bryan was gay?? Remember how Tala is Bryan's best friend??? *thinks that this will be fun*}
Tala looked at his card. "I'm a salesman."
Shara smirked. "Well then, lets start." Shara went over to Tala and wrapped her arms around him and pulled him close and kissed him. "Hmm, so what's a handsome stud like you doing with out a boyfriend?"
Tala pushed Shara away, if that was her name. "Uh, can i interest you in a free blow up dummy. We no longer have just girls but guys too with real hard cocks!" {A/N: Is this still pg-13??}
Shara smirked. "Are you one of them?"
Tala shook his head. "Sorry sir. I ain't one of the merchandise."
Shara purred. "Too bad 'cause us gay guys tend to be always horny." Shara winked.
Tala attepted to hold his temper on that one. "Sure you are." Tala tried to pull away from Shara.
Shara held fast. "Oh I am." Shara rubbed herself against Tala. "Can't you feel it."
Tala shook his head. "Sorry sir, but I only fuck people who actually match me in size."
Shara looked at Tala shocked and then slapped him. "You asshole!"
Tala held his face in shock that she slapped him and then threw her a right that left her on the ground and walked out, leaving the director to take care of the stupid bitch.
{A/N: Gomen for swearing...*sighs* Anyways...what to you think?? And who do you think I should get rid of??
1. A) Rei or B) Aurora
2. A) Tala or B) Shara
thanks for your help ^_^ }
