DEGRASSI
CHAPTER 001: "Come As You Are (2)"
PLOT A: Marisol Lewis
Marisol is pacing around back and forth outside of Degrassi, she's pacing so much that she forgot to go back into the studio and get her cd. Marisol then hears the "judges" words play over and over again in her head like a broken record, causing her to become angry. She didn't even realize that Katie had just made her way out of Degrassi, "I've got some great news." Katie started as she made her way down the steps, "Simpson said that as long as we report any signs of violence and make sure that security is present around the perimeter, we've got ourselves a prom." Katie said in one breath as she ended it with a smile.
"So I'll deal with the security, can you handle the reports?" Katie asked as she looked at Marisol, whose facial expression had turned into one of anger, "What are you saying Katie, because I'm black I handle violence well?" Marisol asked as Katie looked her up and down, "Mare. Where is this coming from?" Katie asked. "You tell me, you're the one that assigned me with the violence reports" Marisol said as she folded her arms. "Well if you ask me, it sounds like you're trying to call me racist." Katie stated as she folded her arms as well. Marisol got in Katie's face, "Well if the shoe fits." Marisol whispered and Katie was shocked as Marisol made her way down the sidewalk.
PLOT B: Clare Edwards
Clare stared up at the ceiling, she couldn't sleep, she just kept thinking about what her aunt had said. She then heard her father's voice and giggling, a woman's giggle. Clare quickly shot up and got up to her feet as she eased her way over to her door. She then looked outside of her room door and saw Trisha tiptoeing down the hall, "What's going on?" Clare asked as she startled Trisha. Trisha slowly turned around, but realized it was Clare, "Oh it's just you" Trisha said as she started to walk again. Clare looked at her confusingly and went over to her father's door and knocked on it. Randall opened it, "Clare?", he began, "What are you doing up at this time of the night?" he asked as Clare looked at him. "I could say the same for you", she whispered. Randall decided to ignore her comment.
"Why was she coming out of your room?" Clare asked. "Oh come on Clare, she's just a friend." Randall stated. Clare looked at him, "I'm ready to go home.", she simply stated. "And we will as soon as the road's clear up" Randall whisperes as he closes the door in Clare's face, who looks at the door, angrily.
PLOT C: Tristan Milligan
Tori and Tristan were walking to Tristan's house, "Jackson is amazing, Tris." Tori stated as Tristan couldn't do anything but feel guilty for talking to him yesterday, Tori realized that he was a little off. "I'm sorry, how about you come with us to...Little Miss Steaks this weekend" Tori said, making it a statement instead of a question. Tristan looked at her, "Tore, thanks for trying to include me this time, but really I'm okay." Tristan assured her as he walked inside of his house. Tori looked at him confusingly, just last semester he wanted to be involved in Tori's relationships, now he didn't.
Tori started to walk away until Zig was standing in front of her, "Oh god." Tori whispered trying to leave, but Zig got in front of her, "Don't you want to know why Tristan isn't so involved this time?" Zig asked as he looked at her.
PLOT A: Marisol Lewis
Marisol couldn't believe what she had done, she had just basically called Katie racist. She didn't even realize that she had went that far, she had took all of her anger from what the judges said and lashed out at Katie with it. She couldnt' believe this. Marisol continued to walk and realized that she had just passed the studio. She couldn't help but want to slap the judges as she saw them eating lunch. She decides it would be best to just leave, so she did just that.
PLOT B: Clare Edwards
Randall was sitting down with his sister and mother; then there was a knock at the door. As soon as the knock was heard Clare started to make her way downstairs with some bags. Randall looked at her funny, but decided to answer the door anyway, "Jake?" Randall asked. "Hi, Mr. Edwards." Jake whispered as he noticed Clare coming in between him and her father, she handed him some bags, "Here I'll take the rest." Clare stated as Jake gave her a smile and headed out.
"What are you doing Clare?" Randall asked. Clare looked at him, "I'm leaving.", she simply said. "I told you that the roads aren't clear. "Yeah dad and you I both know how much you lie!" Clare shouted as her aunt and grandmother looked at her. "Clare can we talk about this somewhere else?" Randall asked calmly and quietly. "Why?" Clare began, "So they don't have to hear how you and mom got a divorce, how mom got remarried, how I started dating my stepbrother, what do you want me to keep a secret?" Clare asked as everyone in the house heard her. Jake immediately returned and Clare smiled, "Let's go.", she whispered as Jake led her out to his truck.
PLOT C: Tristan Milligan
Tristan is walking down the sidewalk; he is thinking about his relationship with Jackson and how much it will hurt Tori if she ever found out about it. "Tristan!" Tori called out as she started to cross the street over to him, "Tori, what's up?" Tristan asked as Tori caught her breath. "Well I need to ask you something" Tori whispered, still breathing heavily. "Okay." Tristan stated as he began to worry about what it was she wanted to know. "Well you see, Zig, said that he saw you talking to Jackson." Tori said as Tristan interrupted her, "Okay, first of all why would you listen to a word Zig Novak has to say?" Tristan asked, but Tori became confused, "Wait so you didn't flirt with him?" Tori asked as she looked at him and Tristan gave a convincing look, one that assured Tori he wouldn't do anything like that.
"I knew it, Zig Novak is and forever will be a two-faced, backstabbing, liar." Tori stated as she continued to walk, but Tristan stopped dead in his tracks. "Tris?" Tori asked; when she realized that Tristan was standing there, she turned around and looked at him, "You okay?", Tori asked. Tristan couldn't do this to her, "Tori I wasn't completely honest with you." Tristan said as Tori looked at him confused. "Yesterday at the dot, when you went to the bathroom, Jackson came over and started flirting with me, I flirted back" Tristan stated as Tori looked at him on the verge of tears. Tristan looked up and realized that her eyes were glistening, "Tore." Tristan started, but before he could speak again, Tori's hand immediately came across his face. She then turned around and left.
PLOT A: Marisol Lewis
Marisol was sitting down on a bench she couldn't believe that she had just lashed out at Katie; especially with all Katie has been through. Marisol felt bad, Katie was her only real friend at Degrassi and now she had ruined everything. This day had been completely ruined. Just as Marisol was about to get up, a man had just walked over to her, "Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice that you looked too pretty to be sad" the man said, smiling, Marisol could see his grill now. "Your point?" Marisol asked as she shot the man a spoiled princess smile, "Well I was wondering if you'd be interested in joing my crew" the man said and Marisol looked up. "Like a dance crew?", she asked and the man nodded, "It's smiliar to a dance crew, so what do you say you'll stop by?" the man asked. Marisol didn't care how crooked the man looked she was going to be in some type of dance crew one way or another.
