-CHAPTER 4-

A week later it was the first day of rehearsal and Jake had just entered when Rose walked up to him to talk. Jake she said, I again want to say how thrilled I am that we're going to be in this together but you do realize that this isn't an easy role you're the center of the entire show everyone is counting on you to make it work. Jake just smiled and said, don't worry I got the part in the first place, I was born to do this. Okay I just wanted to make sure, Rose said.

Just then a tell gangly boy of about sixteen with reddish brown hair and a very toothy grin on face walked right up to Jake with an outstretched hand. Hi you must be Jake, Rose has told me about you. Rose then said, oh Jake this is Ron Allen he's going to be playing Raoule. Oh, Really Ron is it, I don't think I've ever seen you around, are you new here? Jake asked. Ya I Just moved here from up state, I figured joining the Drama club would be a good way to make new friends Ron said. Great Jake said maybe me and my friend could show you around the city sometime. Sounds great said Ron and he then walked off and Rose followed.

Jake then turned to see Trixie and Spud standing right next to him, Trixie had an annoyed look on her face. Jake she said, when I'm through with you you're goanna by eating through a straw, they decided to cast me as part of the ballet. I am not goanna beputtin' on a frilly Tutu and spinnin' around like some wind up doll. Trixie don't worry you'll only be on stage for a few scenes said Jake before turning to Spud and asking, so Spud what part did you get. Spud then responded, dude I'm the guy you're supposed to hang in scene nine. Say what! Jake said in a surprised voice, oh don't worry Spud said they'll use a dummy; they're getting one costume made to look like me. Hay maybe I can keep it afterwards, I can carry it around and say it's my long lost twin and I'll through my voice so it will look like he's taking.

That night underneath the George Washington Bridge the Huntsman approached a dark figure. I don't know why you needed to see me the dark figure said, she could be found at school in the middle of broad daylight, she acts like nothing ever happened. That's not good enough the Huntsman said, everyone will see me run off with her Ineed something less conspicuous, do you know where she is staying. No the dark figure answered, but I do have this, and he handed the Huntsman a copy of the Phantom cast list. The Huntsman smiled and said to himself Oh Huntsgirl when will you ever learn.
