Jade West was furious.
In other breaking news, Superman was weakened by Kryptonite.
In the matter of Jade's "problem", her current inferno of rage was due to, what else, her losing out on the lead role to Tori. She could understand losing out one or two roles but it seemed that everytime she and Tori competed she lost out to the Latina. Well this wasn't going to stand for much longer, this time, Jade was going right to the top to complain about this.
"Sikowitz!" She screamed as she barged into the man's office.
"Oh lord." He muttered as he turned around. "What is it Jade?" He asked with a very fake smile.
"Why did you give Tori the lead role in the play?" She demanded.
"Her audition was better than yours." He said simply as he took out a coconut.
"How so?" She challenged.
"Well she did a flawless British accent, her body language was polite but powerful, and she actually read the right lines." He answered sticking a straw in the fruit. "You did a racist Cockney accent, your stance was aggressive and you didn't even read from the right script. We're doing Evita and you read lines from South Park!"
"Oh so it's favouritism is it?"
Sikowitz rolled his eyes. The smug sense of entitledness was astounding. Just astounding.
"Jade normally I would say that you're a closeted lesbian and your anger at Tori is you trying to work through your feelings for her. After all, your scissor obsession has led to many a theory on the matter." He gave a heavy sigh. "But now, I have to cut right to the heart of it all. You suck."
"WHAT!?" She screamed.
"You heard. The only reason you got all the roles before Tori arrived is that you scared everyone away. The only reason she gets all the leads now is because they're still scared. I have no choice but to cast her. You can't act, you can't dance, and your plays read like a five year old wrote them."
"I have more talent in my pinky toe than Vega has in her entire body." Jade seethed.
"No you really don't." He glared back. "But if you don't like competing with Tori, then why didn't you just transfer to another class? Or just audition for another role?"
Jade fumed as she tried to think up a response. "If my height represented my talent, I'd be two stories tall. I'll get you and Vega." She swore as she stormed out.
"Hmm. There's an idea." Sikowitz smiled as he brought out a crystal ball. "Oh Crystal Ball, show me Tori Vega's height if it reflected her level of talent."
Within the ball, a massive foot stamped down, a city block cracking under its immeasurable weight. "Hmmm. 3,000 foot Tori. Might be slight overkill to prove a point. To say nothing of all the erections. Alright. Show me Jade West's height if it reflected her level of talent." When Sikowitz saw it he laughed. Oh this would cut that spoiled brat down to size.
Meanwhile, Jade had made her way into the hallway and was heading for Tori's locker. She wasn't quite sure what she'd do but it would come to her.
"Ah there it is." She seethed ripping off a pair of scissors off her locker. She paused for a moment as the scissors seemed a bit bigger than usual, and her bag felt a bit heavier, before she shrugged it off.
She couldn't have taken more than two steps before the scissors fell from her hand, suddenly too big to hold. "What the hell?" She demanded before her heavy bookbag dragged her to the floor. "Ok what the fuck is-" She stopped as she saw the ceiling get further and further away from her.
"What? What? WHAT!?" She screamed as everything continued to get bigger and bigger. "This is insane I cannot be shrinking!" Jade shrieked as her shrinking entered its final stages and in five quick bursts, she found herself an inch tall.
And unfortunately, her scissors hadn't shrunk with her, depriving her of a weapon.
Before Jade could decide what to do, she was nearly deafened by the bell going off followed by her heart dropping as she heard her fellow students exit their classrooms and head for the main hallway where she'd had the misfortune of shrinking.
What happens next?
1) Dodging giant feet, Jade pins herself against the wall near Tori's locker, leaving her to swallow her pride and wave down the gigantic Latina for help.
2) As Jade tries to run, she's spotted by Cat who needs a model for her costume design course. indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
