High School

Musical

II

Chapter 3

Friends to the end

"We've got to find something." Sharpay said flipping through internet pages

"Sharpay its been hours. Come on if there was a way to stop this musical then we would have found it by now." Ryan said in an annoyed tone

"Oh shut up Ryan they cannot do this show!" She screamed back at him. Then she looked at the screen and found something dangerous to this musical that made her smirk. " Or can they."

"What are you going to do?" Ryan asked

"You'll see." She said malevolently

That weekend one of the best for Troy and Gabriella since the game and the call-backs. They hung around at a park having a picnic. Then Troy taught Gabriella a few of his moves. Also they rehearsed for their parts in the musical. That very Friday Kelsi had given them the sheet music for a new song called "On the Move". It seemed like nothing could stop them from being their best. At least until that Monday at rehearsal.

"Alright everyone places! Time for on the move!" Ms. Darbus yelled

"Let's go!" Kelsi said sitting at the piano

"Stop the song Ms. Darbus! I have an announcement to make." Principal Matsui shouted. "Ms. Monttez, Mr. Bolton in my office, now!"

After they had dressed and out of their costumes half an hour later they were in Mr. Matsui's office. Out of all the times Troy had been in his office the principal had never looked so angry and worried. Then surprisingly Chad and Taylor came in looking scared.

"There's been a leak from the school the West High Knights say that you guys sabotaged both the scholastic decathlon and The State championship game!" He yelled furiously. Now they're threatening to call the school board and have you all expelled! Do you know how much you're costing the school!"

"Sir is there anything we can do to make them change their minds?" Troy inquired carefully

"They say that if were willing to have a rematch on both accounts then all will be well. Now either you win the games or risk suspension." Nr. Matsui said relaxing now.

"When's the rematch sir?" Gabriella asked Fearfully

"January 30th"

"That's the same day as the musical." Chad said pounding the desk and standing up angrily.

"Mr. Danport sit down immediately." Mr. Matsui said silently but deadly

"Fine" He muttered under his breath. Then Taylor held his arm gently calming him down

"There is a way to avoid this problem." He replied "I can request for an arbitrary hearing. But you guys will have to defend yourselves. So I suggest that you work on something to protect your championships."

"Ok we'll work something out." Troy said as he got up to leave

"You'd better."

As the four of them walked the halls silence fell over the couples.
