The Snow Queen | OC Story

[ Chapter 1 ]

[ St. Hermelin High / The Hall ; ]
"Today, we will be announcing the roles of those who had auditioned for The Snow Queen! So, if you were one of those seven, please step forwards!" A woman began talking, she had a red ribbon tied around her arms - the words 'LEADER' written in bold text across the ribbon - as she moved her hands up to her head, passing a braid that went past her cheek, resting her hands on the top of her head; her name, Yuri Narumi, the leader and founder of the Drama Club. After her announcement was made, a select few out of the crowd of 50, stepped up from their wooden chairs and onto the stage.

[ ; Corinna Foster ; ]
'Do I seriously have to do this... I auditioned out of a bet.' Sitting in the first row, one of the 'lucky' few were thinking to themselves whilst standing up; her hands rested against her side, as she quickly moved her hair to now be in-front of her shoulders - sunlight hitting her hair as the orange hue was brightened! Her hair reached to her chest, as it swayed from side to side whilst she moved from her seat to the steps of the stage... and that's when she started thinking - 'why was she there? how could she have gotten a part in a play of all things? this wasn't who she usually was, so why did she agree to this bet?' - these were all thoughts that the orange-hair girl had, but they seemed to be overwhelming her as she took to the stage, her head hung low as she stood next to the podium, beside the person who she hated more than anything in the entire world, Yuri Narumi. "Alright, first we have... Corinna Foster, who will be playing the title character of, Mikage Aragashi, better known as the 'Snow Queen!'

'Bastard. She probably did this on purpose!' Corinna thought to herself, as there were a million other better candidates to choose for the role, and they picked her!? Not only would this ruin her reputation... becoming a drama kid was beneath her - she now also had to work with Yuri! The two had been at each-others throats ever since Corinna walked through the doors to the clubroom, before her arrival - Yuri was certain that she would be the one to receive the title of 'Snow Queen' - but as soon as rumours started circulating that the board of directors wanted Corinna to be the lead, she seemingly lost all cool; arguments ensued whenever they were in class, and it certainly became a competition between who could do the best in anything! Corinna wasn't as into this as Yuri was, but if she was ever attacked, she would defend herself to the ends of the Earth. After the auditions, and Corinna had heard the rumours of her being casted - she turned to Yuri to have a conversation with her... the details, however, were now a blur to Corinna, whether it be because of a sudden throbbing feeling in her head... but whatever happened there, cemented the rivalry

  Corinna didn't know if her sudden headache was a result of hearing Yuri's voice, as her high-pitched frequency was usually one to cause Corinna a serious pain whenever she heard it, or the sudden news that she would be the leading lady in the Drama Club's first original production - the only reason she was up here was because she lost a game of beer pong... her audition was practically half-assed, with her forgetting most of the assigned lines and making them up on the spot! She had many things that she wanted to say to Yuri at this moment. Unfortunately, she could no longer raise that concern... as she saw the rest of the cast being called up. "Next up, please make some noise for..."

[ ; Max Canderson ; ]
"Max Canderson, our co-founder AND co-writer! Who will be our leading man, Jin Aragashi, the Prince of Hermelin!"

Max emerged from the wings of the stage, raising his left hand as he waved to the crowd - excitedly rushing to his spot at the end of the line as he clasped his hands together, taking a wide bow as his smiled stayed bright on his face, a small nod as he looked down the line, seeing everyone there made him feel happy inside! He doesn't have much outside of the club, and felt like he put everything into writing the play - so seeing the fruits of his labours with his own eyes made him fairly emotional... a single tear rolling down his cheek as he kept the joyful persona up with a quick wipe-away of his tear! He peered down the line again, as he then looked forwards, staring at the crowd, as most of them weren't clapping or even showing support Max, causing him to go silent, his smile dropping as he stood there, awkwardly shuffling into the line after stepping forwards for his bow and hanging his head down low, kicking the floorboards with a scuff as he sighed under his breath,
