Chapter 3: Spring Show

(Myrr POV)

I couldn't believe what our drama teacher, Lumaria Foreseer, was thinking. We had to prepare for the Spring Show, which was technically our final. I guess practice does make perfection but seriously, why did it have to be Girl vs. Monster? Sure, it was one of my favorite movies, but why that. Especially since we had to audition with no exceptions.

"Hey just do your best," Xion said, "Maybe you will get to be Skylar."

"Maybe," I said.

I knew how well my singing was, I could easily do the songs in Skylar's pitch. I spent few nights practicing lines, songs and dances. The only thing I could worry about was Selphie Silverstar. She was, as the course of the days I had to face her in drama, a diva. I wouldn't understand how she could be popular. I would be lucky if I even got to be in the show.

(Xion POV)

Often when I had tried to eavesdrop on Myrr this last week, what I mostly heard was singing. I knew what she was going to do; she was going to try out for Skylar's role. I just hope she would make it.

(Myrr POV)

I could almost feel my heart pounding in my throat when the auditions had almost begun.

"Hey Myrr, good luck," Zexion said.

"You too," I replied.

We took our seats and waited for the bell to ring. Afterwards, our teacher, Lumaria Floralfinish, took attendance. Once he had finished the attendance, we had made our way to the auditorium. We were after all, his only drama class.

"This is a place to express yourself, do what you can," Lumaria said, "no matter how big or small the role is; the role is an important one. Let the auditions begin."

What I was most shocked to see was that most of our class was trying out for one of the monsters. I could see why, they had a fun role. Selpie obviously tried out for Skylar, but I could say that she was terribly off key a bit. Zexion tried out for Ryan, I heard him sing the song almost perfectly.

"Myrr Frostwinds, you're up," Lumaria said, "and what role will you be trying out?"

"Skylar," I said.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. Then I let the words escape my ever so quiet mouth, I sang Fearless. When I had finished and opened my eyes, I saw everyone giving me a standing ovation.

"Perfectly done Myrr," Lumaria said, "the casting shall be posted outside my room tomorrow, best wishes to you all."

(Xion POV)

I found Myrr walking home; I couldn't tell what was on her mind.

"Myrr, how was your audition?" I asked.

"Great, Lumaria said it was perfectly done," Myrr said.

"That might mean you will get the role," I said.

(Myrr POV)

I was walking towards drama the next day when I saw it, I was casted for Skylar. I couldn't believe it, until I saw that Zexion was Ryan.

"What? How? Why does little Myrr Frostbite have to take the star role which belongs to me?" Selphie asked as she saw that she was Myra.

"I don't know," I said, "and for your information, it's Myrr Frostwinds."

"Whatever," she said, walking away, I could hear the irritable clicking sounds of her high heels, seemingly forgetting she had drama next.

"Congratulations on earning Skylar's role," Zexion said, "only someone as gifted as you could ever play her."

"Thank you," I said, "Congratulations with Ryan's role. I can't wait until we practice the duet."

I guess the rest of the day went by so fast. Zexion and I agreed to practice lines and songs at my house, which dad had agreed to. Xion was excited that I had Skylar's role as well as Axel and Roxas, which we had celebrated with sea-salt ice cream. Even dad was pleased with my achievement

The only one who was not obviously happy about it was Selphie. But I was completely glad she wasn't Saddie, it was Olette Gildsilk, who had received that role. Soon I found myself slightly befriending Olette and Zexion. Only thing is, I didn't want them to hear the unavoidable news about my condition.
