Andre Pov

"Man all the girls got dates. There's noone left for the dance, and it's tommorow. Why couldn't I find a date?" I asked myself and Robbie. We had been a bit depressed since all of our lady friends were suddenly in strong lasting relationships. We had been left in the dust. I knew there had to be at least a few girls left to ask, but Robbie at least could go without a date without feeling akward. He was the DJ/Tech for it so he would be busy. I on the other hand was stuck without a date and out of time.

I saw Cat walking down the hall with Syn. They seemd so happy, and don't get me wrong I'm happy for them, but it kinda depresses a man after awhile.

"Hey Andre what's up?" Syn asked.

"Not much. I'm kinda in a jam dance is tomorrow and I ain't got a date."

"Really that's perfect, I mean I'm so sorry.' Cat chimmed. What goes on her head must be really either intelligent or just simple because I don't any of us understood. She stood there with a concerntrating look in her eye. At least I think that's what Cat looks like when she's concentrating.

"Syn I need to go talk to Tori and Jade alone okay?"

"Sure. I'll hang with Andre."Cat sped off towards Tori and Jade who were making out at their locker, dragged them away and ran off.

"Any idea what that was about?" I asked.

"I'm dating her and have trained to interrogate people. She stillconfuses me nonetheless so no. Hey you now my book too right?"

"Yup the whole school does."

"Could you help Sikowitz and I with a project? We need three guys at least for now. I already asked Robbie and he was fine with it."

"Sure. "

"Great come with me." He led me to Sikowitz room where Robbie was already talking to Sikowitz.

"He's gonna help too."

"Great then the three male roles have been filled."

"What male roles?" I asked.

"You see Syn and I were talking, and we decided to turn his book into a play for the end of the year. We needed three boys and three girls."

"Hold on if your going by the main characters, shouldn't there be four boys and only two girls?" I asked.

"I didn't say we were going by book one. Which leads us tothe second reason we need your help. I have jsut completed writing and editing book two. I need you two to help mean Sikowitz turn the manuscript of the book into a scipt for a play. Jade is also going to help us, but Cat and Tori are to be kept in the dark because they are the biggest fans of all of you. Jade shouldbe here right about now." As he said it she walked in the lookedlike she was in a very pleasant mood. Another rare for Jade that happened alot since she hooked up with Tori.

"Okay after the dance tomorrow night, we allgather here to start working on the book to script transfer."

"Are you saying that we are going to get a before release look at book two? We haven't even heard the release title yet. Now you want us to make it into a play?" Robbie blurted out.

"Ya. I don't mind letting you guys read it as long as you help by acting in it, helping writee the script and in Andre's case help with the music. I'vee written some stuff, but not nearly enough for a whole play. Besides your alot better at that than I am."

"Sweet. We get to see the new book." I said.

"So your in? All of you?" Robbie and I nodded and Jade walked over and started preparing a script cover.

"Thanks guys. Here catch." He threw each of us a big book. It was the new book. The cover of the first book had been the five kids standing side by side in their armors, around them were images of fire and Hell with two large eyes looking down on the group. Synchro had his hood off.

This one's cover was very different. It had half a face on each side. One was Synchro, the others Justin. There were a figure below each of them, which I guessed was them. They were both hooded and wings spread on opposite sides. Synchro had his two black angel wings spread on his right, and Justin had his demon wing spread on his left. Their eyes were what stood out in the picture though when it came to the two large faces. Synchro had a pure white eye with no pupil. Justin had a pure black eye. Justin was grinning evily. Synchro shouwed no emotion.

The title said Heart of the Void book two: Elemental Clash.

"Read up. We need to start writing in at least two weeks and done in two months. Also I had already pick who will play who based on appearance. You each share a remarkable resemblace to a single character."

"Let me guess I'm Arthur."

"Yup. Robbie you'll play Frankie. You really do look just like him. Jade will play the new character Sarah, who not only looks but also acts just like Jade. Tori will play Danie and Cat as Gabrielle. We'll bring them in when we're done writing."

"Who's gonna be Justin?"

"Me." I didn't like that voice from the moment I heard it. It was Beck. He had been hiding behind the two way board.

"Why are you here?" I asked remembering what he nearly did to Jade if Syn hadn't have stepped in.

"I have come to apologize for everything I did. I know I can't take it back, but I'm willing to try to make it up to you guys."

"Why should we trust you?" Robbie asked.

"Because even though he nearly hurt our friends just two days ago, I can tell he is truly sorry. I think he realized that after I 'made him' apologize." He pointed down to Beck's arm which was in cast. He really had snapped his arm like a twig.

"Besides me playing as Justin sort of fits right? We look the same, and we both betrayed our friends. I've already talked to the head of the enrollment board, and he is willing to allow me to continue my school life at Hollywood arts." This was incredible. I knew if Syn trusted him, he was telling the truth. I guess Syn woke him back up to thee real world. This could work.

"Okay so we have every part. Now can you tell us more about this new character? Who is Sarah?"

Tori Pov

Cat had told me of their sudden change as to who the pairs they were making were going to be. They had scrapped the idea of Robbie and Trina. They had instead decided to put Trina with Andre. I told her that putting Trina with anyone was a lost cause, but she insisted that it had to work. Trina needed someone. Andre did too. Trina likes to sing, even if she sounds like a frog being run over by a big rig. Andre likes to write music. She convinced me it was at least worth a shot.

I told her that if this didn't happen by christmas we should give up. She took that as a challenge. We headed to my house to go meet Trina. We had been working on this forr a week now. I hoped that if it worked they would hook at the dance tonight.

"Hey Trina. You here?"I called.

"Yeah. What do you want? Shouldn't you be getting ready for your big dance tonight?"

"Yes. But we thought we should spread the love. We set you up with someone for the dance tonight."

"Who is he? Is he hot, talented, famous or all of the above?"

"You'll just have to come and see." Cat said. Trina zoomed upstairs. Cat and I headed to Jade's room where we had hid our dresses. Jade was never in there so she wouldn't find them there. We put both our dresses on, checking with each other for any flaws, and we didn't find any we went downstairs to wait for our dates. Trina came down soon after.

She was wearing a tight black dress like you see on tv all the time, except it wasn't excessively tight. More snug than tight. She had put on lipgloss, a little blush and light eye shadow. She looked pretty good. I had never seen her go so under the top before with a dress for a date.

"I have decided to give this guy a try. However, if this is some prank I will personally see to it both your hair turns green for a week." Trina didn't kid when she pulled the green hair card. She really was desperate. We could use that.

Syn Pov

Jade and I were getting Andre set up. We had tld him the same story that Tori was supposed to tell Trina. We had set them up with a date to the dance, and he was willing to give it a shot. Neither of them knew who their date was.

We had all dressed in nice clothes. I was wearing the military fatigues my dad had given me to wear to special occassions. I started weekend training for the junior Seals this weekend. I was excited, though a little disappointed that I wouldn't see Cat during the weekends other than at night anymore.

Andre we had set up in dress clothes mixed with casual. He wore a sports jacket with a pair of jeans. He wore leather shoes and had sunglasses on. Jade wore a dark green dress with a skull design over it that you had to look for to find. The dress was cut way to low for my tastes, and stopped at her midthigh. It was a little revealing for my tastes, but it was for Tori not me. I couldn't wait to see what the girls were wearing though. Jade was kind of put in the category as one of the guys. She was definitely the guy in their relationship.

"So you guys all set?" They nodded and we hopped in the car.

When we got to the house the girls were waiting out front. Jade got out and got in her car letting Tori hop in. Trina got in their car. Cat got in next to me. We all drove off to the school ready for a great night. I hoped this worked.
