Chapter 144
The following day it was after school, Alex and the other mbers of the rcenary 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 aning 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 mbers quit, after the last production . Now they only had eight mbers 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 mbers, the ones left were the elite of the club . Yet because of so 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 rcenary Club cos in . Emily who was a friend of Katrina the President of the Drama Club via cosplaying . Told her friend that she knew soone who could replace Kevin . This replacent she was speaking about was of course Alex . On the other hand the replacent Katrina was thinking abuot was the most popular boy in school Niel .
. . .
When the rcenary Club reached the Clubroom of the Drama club, they could hear so 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 rcenary 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 co . "
"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 ti 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 costus 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 so reason . Emily started walking towards the girl and the two begin to hug .
"Emi! Long ti no see!"
"It’s good to see you Kat . When the last ti again?"
"When we went to cosplay as Lara and Hilda . So are you going to join us here in the Drama Club? With your skills you can play any role you want . "
"No, I’m happy with the club I’m in right now . . . Oh right, So Kat here we are and I brought you your new star . "
"I know, who would’ve thought that we can actually get the Niel Rayheart to play the protagonist of the story . " Katrina looked at Niel assessing him .
"No not him . This is the new star Alexander Samarita . " Emily pulled Alex into the spotlight . Katrina then looked at Emily with a weird expression, and then looked at Alex confused .
"What? He is the one playing the role? Not Niel, but Alex? The one who is rumored to have an expressionless face . Granted he is good looking, and I hear he is very athletic . . . but really, him?"
"Don’t dismiss him just yet . We all agreed even Niel stated that Alex is the one most suited one to play this role . At least try, co on do this one scene and see what you think . "
Emily showed her copy of the script and pointed at the scene Alex did yesterday . This ti they wont just say one line they would do the whole scene .
"Very well let’s see what he can do . Everyone will be doing Act 5 scene 3 . Alex here will be playing the lead . Hand him a script will you . " One of the Drama club mbers handed Alex a script, and the three boys from the Drama Club as well as Alex stood center stage .
"Okay everyone get to your positions . . . Action!" Upon hearing katrina’s signal the actors started saying their lines, alongside so music .
"Damn it! How can we allow Jason to die!"
"I can’t do it anymore, this is it for . There is no more glory in this . We’ll just get massacred . . . Face it, we failed . "
"This mission isn’t allowed to fail . " Alex said his line the sa way he would in the battlefield . Full of conviction and confidence . His tone was still indifferent, but by simply seeing his body language you could actually feel his conviction .
The Drama Club mbers were a bit surprised, but they still continued on . As expected of the best actors this school has to offer .
"What the f*ck Leo! There’s nothing left! We can’t finish this d*mn mission anymore . "
"Why? Because we lost one man?" The stoic expression coupled with a bit of confusion was perfect . Katrina was getting sucked in by Alex’s acting . Even the other actors saying the lines with Alex, really felt their roles even more . They actually felt like it was getting real .
"Of course you can’t understand! You . The perfect soldier! To you lives an nothing! To you as long as the mission is completed, nothing matters . You may be the perfect soldier, but you are a worthless human!"
The next line Alex did was the sa line he used yesterday, and sa as before it was a perfect delivery .
"This is war we’re having, do you think one man’s death ans anything? We are soldiers, nothing more, nothing less . " The mont Katrina heard Alex say that line, coupled his voice and his stoic expression . She really believed that Alex beca Leo the perfect soldier . Katrina felt that she and the mbers of the Drama Club were transported into the battlefield .
The conviction in his voice, the resolve in his eyes . The chilly atmosphere of the battlefield his aura, his presence emitted was perfect . It was like he was born to play this role .
"Amazing!" The mbers of the Drama Club all clapped at this mont . Katrina was so amazed that she didn’t even get to say cut, before saying Alex’s performance was amazing .
Emily who was watching at the side was as usual having fun, seeing her plan going as smoothly as possible .
