Chapter 110: What Now?
~Third Person~

Everyone decided it'd be best to meet up during the summer before it was time for their next college semester or their starting ones.

Most of them would be splitting up here and going separate ways but they promised to at least keep in contact when they could if they couldn't physically see each other just so that they wouldn't drift apart.

Life was going to be different for them now, some would have no free time at all like Zerenity who chose a school that took a drive that'd be more than a few hours from Phoenix Drop but was more than determined to meet up with her friends and boyfriend every weekend. --While studying with a part-time job, mind you.--

Some would be like Lyrvanna who'd have a little more free time than her family would appreciate, she'd only be working part-time at McDonald's while searching for free courses to get a daycare license.

Sure, throughout high school everyone's life was turned upside down. Bullies, friend drama, relationship drama, even complete personality changes. Everyone was put through quite a lot during school but what would come after that?

Is the drama going to let up?

"Well guys, I guess... this is it, isn't it?" Zerenity leaned against her car, she finally past her driver's test last week. It sure took her long enough.

"Yeah," Travis nods, "is it just me or did time fly by way too fast?"

"No, it did. It really did." Lyrvanna sniffs as she 'discreetly' wipes her tears. It isn't hard for anyone to see that she's bawling her eyes out. "Are any of you guys staying in Phoenix Drop?"

"I am." Both Lucinda and Travis say.

"Good, you two are the only ones who aren't traitors." She puts on a smile. "Plus the ones who were going to college in Phoenix Drop in the first place."

"Now I feel even worse, it was really hard to pick a school. I wish we could all just go to the same one." Zerenity sniffles holding back her tears.

"You guys can't be seriously crying, this isn't the last we'll see each other." Dove rolls her eyes but she's really hoping it's true. She can't lose her friends. "It's just college."

"It's not JUST college, it's a new life! It's a doorway into adulthood." Lyrvanna outrages.

"It's not even that big a deal!" Dove shouts.

"What do you mean 'not that big a deal'?! It's a huge deal! College is one of the most 'precious new life' moments you can make!"

"Coming from someone who's not you even going! You know what, Lyrvanna, you can fight me!" Dove snarls.

"Fine! Come at me, Dove!" Lyrvanna glares at her.

Before either of them can make a step both Zerenity and Zane lunge after Dove and Kawaii~Chan and Laurance lunge after Lyrvanna, they hold them in place pretty well thankfully.

"No fighting guys! This is supposed to be a peaceful day!" Zerenity whines.

"Yeah, you--" Zane starts but Dove cuts him off.

"Shut it, Zane! I especially don't want to hear from you!" Dove snarls and snaps out of their arms. "I'm going to be late." Dove rushes to her car.

"Wait!" Zerenity runs after her.

"This was supposed to be a cheerful but reminiscing day." Kawaii~Chan sighs. "Kawaii~Chan should get going so she has time to unpack."

"No! Don't leave yet! Please!" Lyrvanna rushes after her.

Everyone was starting to realize the time and decided it was time to leave. They never got the peaceful and reminiscent day that they were hoping for, but that's not who they are.

Sure, some of them are peaceful at times but together they're chaotic, bunches of fun. Sure to grab the attention of those around them whether it's through a fun, upbeat melody or dark, angry chaos.

Either way, this chaos between them, fun and wild, is the reason the chapter of their lives began. The reason another book lives.

Let's just say... a bit of a while later...

They all found themselves in a dark, crowded, but cold room. And on the stage on the other side of the room, was a man... clothed in black. There was no way to see his face but all you know is his voice.

"You all on an island called the Isle of Eminence." His voice boomed.

And on that island, they'd compete to be the...

First To Fame.
