It was the annual summer play and the auditions in full swing director, Java Hayes got ringed with it along with her boyfriend, Mega as assistant director. Both were veterans of the play company 'ABC Play Acting'.

"How much longer is this hell going to last?" he said blankly.

"Just a while longer," she assured him.

"You said that four hours ago," he retorted.

"Okay… maybe not," she said, "NEXT," she shouted.

(Back stage)

"Which mocks the very mean it feeds on…" a boy said reading from the script.

Pride looked at him, "Uh that's not the line, you're reading it wrong," he reported to him.

"Really?"

"Yea, Really- here let me help," Pride said taking the script.

Across the room Ebony was sneering as Slade came up to her, "What's with the bear?" Ebony asked with a look. It was a bear dressed as a biker.

"Got it at work- from Ruby," Slade said.

"Does she ever give up?" Ebony muttered darkly just as they turned to hear a loud.

"LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!"

"What the hell?" Slade said as they looked over and saw two guys doing some weird dance step- one dressed as a woman…

"Uh what are you guys doing?" Jay said from the side.

"This is the auditions for the "Rocky Horror Picture Show" right?" one said.

"No…" all three repeated looking at each other and then the two guys oddly.

"Oh dude!"

" it Shimmy! I knew it was the other stage," the other exclaimed.

"Let's bounce"

"Yea yea, my bad bro," "Shimmy" reported.

They left- Slade, Jay, and Ebony exchanged looks before starting to laugh.

"Oh god, the rocky horror picture show- that is too much," Ebony exclaimed her eyes watering from how hard she was laughing.

"Where is my camera when I need it?" Slade said bemused.

"You have a camera?" Jay and Ebony repeated.

"No! But I should," he decided.

"That dude looked pretty funky," another person chimed in.

They all nodded their heads in agreement, "So you think Java is pulling her hair out yet?" Ebony said.

"Probably," Jay said.

"And Josh will be bringing the sarcasm in full swing," Slade decided.

"Wanna go look?" Ebony challenged.

"Oh yea," they said following her to the side of the stage.

(Back in front)

"Can we just die now?" Java said banging her head on the table finally.

"No, we have twenty people left to audition," Mega said blankly.

"Whose idea was this again?"

"Yours," Mega said deadpan.

"Remind me never to do this again," Java replied.

"Deal"

"Okay everyone, Mega and I need an hour break- so keep looking over your lines until then," Java shouted before grabbing Mega and pulling him towards the four standing in the wings (Ebony, Jay, Slade, and nowPride)

"Enjoying the show?" Java demanded.

"Oh yea- great talent you got this time," Ebony replied sarcastically.

"I'm glad I'm just a producer," Pride said.

"I'm happy I'm not in this," Slade said.

"I'm going to be miserable everyday of practice," Jay said sullenly.

"Don't worry I'll be there suffering with you," Ebony assured him.

"And so will we," Mega and Java added.

"Coffee break?" Slade said to the group.

They all nodded in agreement before walking out the door.
