I do not own High School Musical or any of the characters, I wish I did but I don't. The only thing that is mine is the story plot! Tell me what you think so far. BTW the summary sucks but it's going to be a really good story! R&R please!!!
This chapter is going to be longer and better, because the first one was just a prologue and like an intro to what Gabi and Shar's lives are like in the story. I will explain what they were being charged with later on so have patience. Lol! R&R!
One Month and a Week LaterThe current situation could be described simply as a Youth Authority Camp or as many call it prison. But there is a vast difference in being trapped in a prison cell and being stuck in a Juvenile hall with a bunch of girls, suffering the same unfair judgment as you.
The sun's harsh rays hit the rough faded pavement; a light steam could be seen rising off of the blacktop. The only colors that could be found within eyesight was the unmistakable tacky blue pants and sweaty white tank top uniform that Gabriella and Sharpay, as well as every other poor soul, were being forced to wear.
A blonde head was slowly raised to meet the sun's unbearable strength. A wave of heat, and a blinding stream of light blasted against Sharpay Evans' face. She quickly raised a slim hand to shield her face from the light. She met a pair of equally tired brown orbs, she squinted, her vision once again blinded by the sun. Sharpay waited for her eyesight to clear, she focused in on that oh so familiar olive skin, and angelic face that belonged to her Hispanic best friend.
It had been about one month since Shar and Gabi had been shipped of to Albuquerque Youth Authority Camp. Their welcome hadn't been exactly cheery, the guards waiting by the gates, suppressed a couple of menacing smirks as they chucked the bland uniforms at the two beauties. The two were quickly shoved into a cell with two other girls, nice to have some company right? Not! Were talking about girls who will literally chew off your face if you so much as look at them in a way that displeases them.
Anyways, waking up at 6:00 am every morning, and getting shoved outside for physical training for two hours works up a serious appetite! Too bad all you can eat here is contaminated brown mushy slop and stale bread, mmm tasty!
The camp was split into a girl's side and a boy's side, to minimized confrontation between the two rival sexes. Apparently the guards have never seen a girl fight in action.
Today was Friday so all of the girls had been sent outside for 'free time' as they called it, but really you only have one choice, basketball. They put you and your cellmates into a fenced in basketball court, if you could call a messily paved box, with a single metal pole and a wooden plank of wood with a broken rim on it, a basketball court.
"Yo Skids! Ace! Come over here!" a familiar loud voice brought Sharpay back form her not so happy trip down memory lane. She glanced over at the brunette and together they searched for the source. Two pairs of brown eyes landed on the harsh green orbs of one of their cellmates.
When Gabriella and Sharpay had been put into their cell the two other occupants had been very hostile, not to mention intimidating as hell. It took a couple of days for the girls to warm up to the newly introduced delinquents, but finally the two teens were accepted as one of their own.
Gabriella and Sharpay slowly rose from their sitting position and walked over to their friends.
"Hey, is it really true?" Yolanda inquired. Sharpay smirked, her brown orbs twinkling, and gave a quick nod to the spunky fire engine red head.
"Yeah it's really happening, that ass-faced guard told us yesterday" The brunette flopped down on the pavement next to a spiky haired platinum blonde, Sophia.
Sophia and Yolanda were the two teens' cellmates; Yolanda had made up the nicknames Skids and Ace for Gabi and Shar. Sophia thought of it as a sort of initiation into their cell, but non-the-less the names had quickly grown on the beauties. Gabriella often found herself wondering why her and Shar never asked why they got their nicknames; she guessed that it was best not to question Yolanda. Yolanda had gotten into Juvi for assaulting her teachers and running away from three different foster homes.
"You are so lucky Skids, I mean you get to leave this hell hole, me and Soph are stuck here for at least another year." Gabriella craned her neck to look up at Yolanda, her usually bright fire scarlet hair even more enhanced by the sun's rays. Her lips curled up into a picture perfect smile, reveling her pearly whites, at the thought of leaving this… this… place.
"Hey! I'm leaving too!" Shar whined and Sophia let out a chuckle.
"We're both lucky A" Sharpay grinned. BANG! CLASH! All four girls turned their attention to the side of the fenced in area, the thick metal cage shook violently.
"Hey bobble heads! Word round this joint is that you're leaving" four pairs of eyes met an unmistakable pair of frosty hazel orbs.
"Yeah, you heard right. What's it to you?"
The hazel-eyed figure posed dramatically on the other side of the steal cage, doing her best to look good wearing the unfortunate white and blue uniform. Her platinum died locks hung loosely, the ends frizzing from the constant humidity.
"Well you know how much I'm gonna miss ya'll. I mean no one could be as fashionably challenged as you two." The figure smirked, baring her silver platted filling.
Gabriella let out a loud snort, "How sweet of you Mayyyysie" She drawled out Massie's name in the way she new the fake valley-girl blonde couldn't stand. Massie's smirk faded, and a frown graced her features.
"Don't call me that little miss Skids" Gabs winced at the sound of her nickname spilling out of the thin cracked lips of her rival.
"Look Massie back off okay!" Sharpay stood up coming to her friend's defense. Massie snarled, shifting her cold gaze to Sharpay, who met her eyes with an equally threatening flicker in her chocolate pools.
"Ohhh," Massie shuddered, sarcasm dripping from her voice, "I'm so terrified! You know what? Your dad should have gotten rid of you when he had the chance"
Sharpay let her arms drop to her sides, anger and hate filling her dark orbs. "You little bitch!" she stomped over to the side of the cage, ignoring Gabriella's pleas to stop her. Yolanda and Sophia rushed to hold back their friend, "DON'T YOU EVER SAY ANOTHER FUCKING WORD ABOUT ME OR MY FAMILY!" Two pairs of strong arms laced through Sharpay's angrily folded ones, the two girls tugged on the pissed blonde, dragging her away form the fence. Massie had already disappeared form the scene wanting to avoid any damage that may inflict itself upon her.
Gabriella snapped her fingers and Yolanda and Sophia pined the beauty to the smoldering hot pavement. "Look Ace, I know you want to kick their prissy little asses but do it and we can kiss our chances of getting out of here!" the coldness slowly left Sharpay's eyes and she let out a defeated sigh.
"Fine, now let me go!"
"Dang girl! You were about to pull Yolanda on their asses!" Sophia smirked; she raised her hand to give her props to her friend.
"Evans! Montez! Lets move!" Sheriff Lowell appeared on the other side of the silver cage, a ratty brown detective's hat hiding his twisted features.
"I'm gonna miss you Ace, Skids, have fun out there"
"Yeah, when we get out we'll come check up on ya'll" The girls said their farewells, not shedding a single tear, even though they felt the hot water threading to fall.
"Lets move it ladies!" Sharpay and Gabriella took one last look at the prison that they had been living in. Gabriella secretly wished she could stay for a little bit longer; this place had been her's and Shar's home for the past month. Sure she had to put up with dickhead guards but they had made friends with Yolanda and Sophia and that's what made this place a home.
The cool metal cuff slapped around the two beauties wrists as they felt themselves being wrenched forward by Sheriff Lowell. The cage door was slammed shut and the sound of the several locks keeping the area locked being closed made it official. They were finally getting out of this hell whole. Little did they know, prison would be nothing compared to what awaited for the teens in their dark and gloomy future.
