Chapter 144 The Drama Club (1/2)
The following day it was after school, Alex and the other members of the Mercenary Club headed towards the Drama Club's Clubroom. The clubroom was on the second floor of the new school building. This club unlike the Gaming Club was a successful club. The last performance they had was a full house meaning that they were able to sell all their tickets. So the room they were given was bigger, than most clubs. They were even allowed to use the auditorium whenever they wanted.
They were the third best club in the school. Since the expectations were so high, a lot of the club members quit, after the last production. Now they only had eight members left, but since they were one of the clubs with bigger budgets, the student council gives them their full support. The crafting club even makes their sets. The music club also helps them with their background music.
Still now that they had fewer members, the ones left were the elite of the club. Yet because of some mishap the lead actor, Kevin wasn't able to make it for the next play, which will happen next week Friday.
This is where the Mercenary Club comes in. Emily who was a friend of Katrina the President of the Drama Club via cosplaying. Told her friend that she knew someone who could replace Kevin. This replacement she was speaking about was of course Alex. On the other hand the replacement Katrina was thinking abuot was the most popular boy in school Niel.
...
When the Mercenary Club reached the Clubroom of the Drama club, they could hear some dramatic music playing inside. They could also hear two people talking to each other.
”We wont be able to make it...”
”I know that already... I guess this is goodbye.”
”Heh, will you look at that. I still have two left, want one?”
”Thanks... One last cigar before we go to hell.”
”Do you think Leo made it?”
”If anyone could finish this mission it would be Leo.”
While the two people where having this conversation the Mercenary Club couldn't enter the clubroom, since it was obvious that they were practicing. Then the sound of gunfire could be heard, the music also changed tones.
”Here they come.”
”Right on schedule, how many bullets do you have left?”
”I have ten rounds, you?”
”I got one shot left, and two grenades.”
”Not much, but let's give them a surprise present.”
”Sure let's do that.”
The gunfire intensifies and after a few more seconds a loud explosion happened.
”Cut! That was perfect!” This time the one talking was the voice of a girl. When Alex's group heard this, they found their chance to enter the clubroom.
Upon entering the clubroom, they saw a lot of costumes on one side, a bunch of background pictures in another and in the middle of the room, were four people reading a script, two who looking at each other, and one person sitting on a chair holding a fan.
The girl sitting on the chair noticed Alex's group had entered, and happily approached them. The girl approaching Alex's group had glasses on, and looked very aggressive for some reason. Emily started walking towards the girl and the two begin to hug.
