Hey, y'all, how's it going? So, for the question last time, which was "What is your favorite color?" only FIVE people told me. :O FIVE PEOPLE. Honestly, FanFiction readers, I'm slightly disappointed. Author's Notes can have very useful information. Well, not mine really, but still.
Anyhoo, thanks to janiquinn, head in the clouds, I'mComplicatedButSimple, XxX Farah XxX. and Joker236 for telling me their favorite colors!! This chapter's question is "What is your favorite SWAC episode in Season 1?" You can also say why, but you don't have to.
Disclaimer: I do not own SWAC, yada yada yada, I also don't own a purple flying hippopotamus. In case anyone cares.
Cloudy with a Chance of Channy - Chapter 6
Operation: Channy
It had been five days since Chad and Sonny had broken up. The news was all over the media, and reporters were constantly swarming into Condor Studios to try to ask questions. The reporters got so bad that Mr. Condor had to barricade the studio entrance and have special guards escort the stars inside.
The issue of Mandy and Jackson had been solved. Mandy had stormed to Mr. Condor and quit, saying she wasn't appreciated. Jackson just took off that day when Chad and Sonny broke up, and he hadn't been seen since.
Chad and Sonny were horribly torn up by the break up, even if they wouldn't admit it. Chad was viciously mean to everyone, and would blow up at the smallest things. Later, he would break down in his dressing room and just sit with his head in his hands.
Sonny was even worse. She stopped being Sonny. She insisted she was fine, but everyone could see the bags under her eyes that said she wasn't getting any sleep. Everyone could see the lack of her beaming smile, replaced by a weak smile that was more of a grimace.
Dani was also pretty upset. She moped in her dressing room for about a day, before returning in true Dani-style, telling herself that it was no use moping, and that she should do everything in her power to get her brother and her best friend back together. She tried talking to them, but at the slightest mention of the other, Chad would blow up and storm off elsewhere, and Sonny's eyes would tear up and she would make some excuse to disappear.
After five days, the cast of So Random starting to lose hope. Condor Studios wasn't the same without their favorite exploding ball of sunshine.
"She just sits around all day," Tawni told Dani. "Even during rehearsals, she's no longer enthusiastic about anything. It's like she's turned into a robot."
"I was looking around in the vents one day, and I saw her in her dressing room, crying her eyes out," Zora said sadly. "We're all really worried about her."
Chad was also no longer his true self. He completely turned into Chad Dylan Cooper, and was even more egoistical, mean, and rude that usual. He exploded at sweet, harmless Chastity during rehearsals, and snapped at Portlyn when she asked what was wrong. His cast felt sorry for him, but his obnoxious behavior was really starting to get on their nerves.
Finally, one day after Sonny had run from the cafeteria in tears, and Chad and thrown his mirror across the room in anger, Dani decided she had had enough. She'd had enough with the fact that Chad and Sonny were acting depressed, angry, and way out of line. Dani realized that she wasn't going to be able to get Chad and Sonny back together by herself. She was going to need some help. She pulled out her phone and started texting.

~dani
Dani closed her phone, sighed and sank down onto the couch in her dressing room. All this match-making was really emotionally and physically draning.
Chad had better be grateful for this, she thought.
At 3:05, all the people Dani had texted were at the Starbucks. This Starbucks was rarely used by anyone, so needless to say, the cashier was quite surprised when eight well-known celebrities walked in the front door. After ordering their drinks, they all sat down at one large round booth.
"So, what's the deal?" Tawni asked, taking a sip of her Spiced Cinnamon Cappuccino. "Why did you call us all here, Dani?" Dani looked around all the expectant faces.
"You've seen how they've been since Monday," she began, and no one had to ask who she was talking about. "Sonny's depressed, Chad is way temperamental, and they're just both plain unhappy. They need each other. And we need to get them back."
"But, how?" Grady asked after a long silence. "They won't even go near each other."
"Yeah, Sonny starts crying if we even mention MacKenzie Falls," Nico said.
"And even if one of us says 'sunny', Chad gets really pissed," Ferguson added.
"Does anyone know what actually happened?" Chastity asked. "There's a huge possibility it was all just a big misunderstanding. Did either Chad or Sonny tell anyone what happened?" Dani looked thoughtful.
"All I know is that right after rehearsal, Mandy said she wanted to talk to Chad," Dani said, her expression turning angry. "I'll bet she set this whole thing up. That bitch!"
"Calm down, Dani," Portlyn reminded her. "We don't know that."
"I know Sonny got a text from Chad saying to meet her outside his dressing room at 11 o'clock," Tawni said.
"What about you, Z?" Nico asked, turning to Zora. "Did you see anything up in the vents?" Zora thought for a minute.
"Well, I remember seeing Mandy texting on a phone in someone's dressing room," she said finally. "I don't know whose it was. It had blue walls and a big white couch..."
"That's Chad's dressing room!" Dani exclaimed. "Mandy was in Chad's dressing room, texting on his phone! I'll bet you anything she sent Sonny that text, then dragged Chad over and kissed him so Sonny saw. That jerkface!"
"And I bet Sonny bumped into Jackson or something like that, and Jackson made a move on Sonny, which Chad saw!" Chastity cried out.
"So this all the guest-stars' fault..." growled Ferguson.
"Humph. I am so converting to Team Jason like Dani," Tawni grumbled. "Stupid Tyler."
"Team Jason all the way!" Dani cried, and she, Tawni, Portlyn and Chastity high-fived while Zora and the guys looked at each other with I'll-never-understand-teenage-girls expressions.
"So, what are we going to do?" Grady asked again.
"Yeah, I doubt we can get them together long enough to have them explain," Nico said.
"You'd have to lock them in a room together or handcuff them to get them to even speak to each other," Portlyn agreed. Dani got that look in her eye, that look she had when she got a great, but usually insane idea.
"Uh oh," Tawni said, leaning back. "Dan's got that look."
"I love that look!" Zora screeched. Dani leaned forward in anticipation.
"I have a plan," she said. "But it's gonna take some work, and I'll need all of your guys' help."
"Please tell me you're not going to lock them in a closet," Ferguson groaned. Dani gave him an evil smile.
"Oh, Ferguson," she chuckled. "Sometimes the simplest plans work the best." The others sighed and groaned in defeat, realizing that they would have to go along with Dani's plan.
"So, you're in?" Dani asked, putting her hand in the middle of the table. One by one the others put their hands on top of Dani's. "One, two, three..."
"Team Channy!" they all yelled before laughing and dispersing to carry on with their day. Dani smiled to herself.
"Operation: Channy is a go,"
Sorry, that was a really short chapter, but I didn't want to add any more into it. Hopefully I gave you guys a little hint of what Dani's plan is going to be. :) I love Dani, she is so ingenious.
Don't forget to answer the question! Please more people answer this time! See, I even gave you a great reason to review! :D
Peace out, suckas!
