(A/N: Okay you guys. I'm having serious problems. Yes, this chapter does have a story underneath this extensive authors note, but I ask you guys to read this first, or last. Either works. So, I got a review saying this story is a "disgrace of fanfiction" and then they left their review anonymous so I can't settle it with them. They said it was a disgrace because Tori can't help that she's the star of the show and she's never done anything mean to Jade. Okay. Well, this person needs to chill their pants, because isn't that the whole POINT of Fanfiction? FICTION. How the hell is it a disgrace? You're treating Tori like she's a real person! "Tori can't help what she does." She's a freaking character in a TV show! Why are you being so defensive about it?
Okay. Awesome. And one more thing, other anonymous review who commented saying Jeremy Shane sucks, please don't bash other reviewers. That's my job ;) But I appreciate the help. Jeremy is just giving his opinion, and is a loyal reviewer, so I have nothing against him.
Jeremy Shane- The chapters in this story don't go with one another. They're all separate one shots. So Tori will be back, because the last chapter "Never happened" in Victorious land, for lack of a better term. And as for calling me childish, I realllly don't like that. Do you say that to people in Bori fictions who completely bash Jade? People have least favorite and favorite characters, and Jade happens to be my favorite and Tori my least favorite. So, because I like you, in this story I try to have Tori as Jade's friend, but please realize some of the chapters are going to be against her! I'm trying to appeal mostly to Jade and Bade fans, and Tori isn't in that picture. But, I appreciate you reading this far! Thanks
Okay! Well! Here's the chapter for all you who suffered through that!)
Who did it to Trina?
"No Cat," I groaned as she arrived on my doorstep.
"But it's Tori's play! We should cheer for her!" Cat said, bringing out a pom pom from behind her back.
"It's going to suck. Vega can't write. She can only sing that bubblegum crap voice of hers and do scenes that involve kissing my boyfriend," I scoffed.
"So let's go!" Cat said, dragging my wrist.
I sighed. If anyone else, including Beck, had been dragging me (LITERALLY) to Tori's play like this, they would be on the ground with a concussion by now. But Beck was at some acting camp. So he wasn't here and made Cat drag me.
I sat unwillingly in the passenger seat and crossed my arms.
"HAHAAHAAH!" Cat giggled.
"What?" I yelled.
"You look like a big baby!"
I balled my hands into fists.
"Cat. Drive. NOW!"
"Kay kay!"
A few minutes later, we pulled into the school. We headed towards the Blackbox Theater, but it was locked.
"Why is the theater locked Cat?"
"I don't know," Cat said, looking around at the ceiling.
"Hey, what are you guys doing here so early?" Tori questioned, coming up behind us.
"Early." I deadpanned.
"Yeah, it doesn't start for another hour."
"Cat."
"I like early! You're never late!" Cat giggled.
"Let us in Vega."
"Sure…"
Tori unlocked the door with the key she got from the office.
"Here, do you guys mind helping set up the folding chairs? Put them into like, 10 rows of 20 chairs, with an isle to walk down the middle." Tori said.
"No."
"Let's go Jadey!" Cat said, and dragged me to where the folding chairs were hanging.
"I don't know Rex! This doesn't seem right!" I heard Robbie's voice.
Cat seemed to not notice, but I decided to follow it.
"DO you like Trina?" Rex asked.
"She is a living breathing female with nice hair," Robbie said. I slipped backstage to where I could watch them without being seen.
"You're pathetic," Rex said. "Pass the scissors."
Robbie 'gave' Rex the beloved object and Rex snapped something that looked like a harness. I took a picture just in case.
"This won't kill her right?" Robbie asked.
"I don't know! But one thing she's not going to do is call me a puppet again like yesterday!"
Robbie and Rex walked away arguing and I got out.
"TORI! I'm freaking out! What if someone ate her?" Cat screamed, shaking Tori.
"Cat! Relax, I'm sure she went to the bathroom or something," Tori consoled.
Cat nodded and calmed down.
"I'm here," I said, walking out from behind the stage, causing both of them to jump.
"JADEY!" Cat ran up and hugged me. I pat her back and then pushed her off.
"The chairs look good Cat and Jade, thanks," Tori commented.
"But I did them myself," Cat pouted.
"Thanks Cat!" Tori said, and then walked backstage.
Me and cat took a seat in the 13 (and 14) chair on the 5th row. Cat's favorite number was 5, and mine was 13 for obvious reasons.
People started flooding in, and Lane and Sikowitz took a seat in front of me.
I yawned.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for coming! I hope you enjoy!" Tori said, walking briefly on stage.
I sighed and looked onstage. Robbie and Trina as the leads. Wonderful picking Vega. Trina was an alien. Robbie was a brother or something. I basically watched the play as one would skim a book. Only picking out details, and going on autopilot for the rest. However, when Trina was hoisted into the air, I got flashbacks of Rex cutting that rope.
"AAAH!" Trina exclaimed. She started swinging from only one end of the rope. I noticed Robbie step out of the auditorium, and everyone went in frenzy. I pulled out my phone and started videotaping.
"Thanks so much Cat for taking me to this," I said, patting her knee. She buried her head in my shoulder.
Trina swung around, and eventually just landed on the ground.
"Is it over?" She asked. I paused, and ironically enough, one of the prop walls fell over on Trina, making everyone scramble to help her.
"Now it is," I said, shutting off my camera.
Cat looked up and looked horrified.
"Let's go," I sighed, pulling Cat up. We almost got to the front door of the school, when Lane stopped us.
"Where do you girls think you're going?" He asked.
"Home."
"No you don't! No student is leaving until we figure out what happened to Trina," Lane said.
"Then you might want to get Robbie," I said, pointing to the side door where Robbie was trying to sneak out.
"Thanks a lot witch," Rex said.
"Anytime, anytime."
"So, we've narrowed it down to you five. You guys were the ones that were here early for the show." Lane said in a room with Me, Cat, Tori, Andre, and Robbie.
"I was helping with the music for the play," Andre said.
"Cat got the times mixed up," I sighed, swinging on Lane's chair.
"I was directing the play! I was making sure everyone had everything!" Tori protested.
"Likely story," I whispered, smiling when Tori glared at me.
"Lane this is ridiculous," Andre said. "I have a date tonight! And I gotta go!"
"A date?" Tori asked, raising her eyebrow.
"Jealous?" I mocked.
"No!" Tori said, crossing her arms. A smile came over her face. "I think Jade did it."
"And why is that?" I asked, giving her my signature smirk.
"You and Cat came here early. You got Cat to distract me with the chairs, and you disappeared backstage for a good 3 minutes." Tori stated.
I internally frowned. Shit.
"Is this true Jade?"
"Yeah. But is anyone failing to question why Robbie was at the play early? Because when I went backstage, I saw a certain puppet boy."
Lane turned to Robbie. "Why were you here early?"
"Because he has a crush on Trina!" Rex exclaimed.
"No. I have a picture that might intrigue you all," I said, pulling out my phone and showing it to Lane where everyone gathered around. Right as I let go, I heard my phone vibrate signaling a new message.
"Jaaaade. You got a picture message from Beck," Tori cooed.
"Give it!" I said, but Tori snatched it away. I ran after her. Beck said he was going to send me some 'photos'. And not the kind you would show to your child. (Well I would show them to a small male child. Just for therapy purposes.
"I miss you so much baby," Tori read the message attached first, and she must have opened the picture because she froze and quietly handed the phone back to me. I turned back to the picture of Rex cutting the harness.
"Here," I showed Lane. Lane raised his head and sighed.
"Have anything to say for yourself Robbie?"
"It was rex!"
"Come to the principal's office with me," Lane said, dragging Robbie out.
I sat back on the swingy chair.
"I'm sorry for reading your picture message," Tori said, awkwardly walking up to me.
"No you're not. You're probably incredibly horny right now," I said.
Tori blushed, "Uh…"
"It's fine Vega. But don't think you'll see anything like that again."
"Thanks," Tori said, and smiled away.
"CAT! Let's go get some sushi!" I yelled, and grabbed Cat's wrist.
"Can I come?" Tori asked, turning around.
"No."
That was incredibly boring, but face it. It was a boring episode!
R&R Please!
