Onset of Something Suspicious? [Open to all]

[hsmgirl17]

Lexy was in the middle of her conversation with Alex when she heard someone right outside the door. Suddenly, the door burst open and a middle-aged women entered. She looked around the room and asked if she was interrupting something then told us to find our seats. Lexy sat in her chair and it wasn't until Alex walked up to the class until Lexy remembered that she had to give Ms. Darbus a copy of her schedule.

"Um, excuse me" Said Lexy. She looked at the nameplate and started again.
"Um, I'm new here so I was told to give all my teachers a copy of my schedule. My name if Lexy Peterson by the way". She handed her schedule to Ms. Darbus and walked back to her seat. Unfortunately, as Lexy was walking to her seat, she tripped again. She got up as if nothing happened and went to her seat. She was blushing real bad though. "Oh no, not again" she thought to herself. She hoped that nobody noticed but she knew that everybody did. She got out her notebook and pencil and waited for class to start.

(OOC: OK it's taking me forever to look at all the posts so I'm just gonna slip in)


Troy sighed at the voice of Ms. Darbus. She was one of the last teachers he wanted for homeroom. He didn't mind Drama but when it came to Ms. Darbus, drama was a nightmare. "So Taylor, how long do you possibly think Darbus is gonna keep getting at us this year?" Troy whispered softly to where mostly just Taylor could here.

Lexy, the new girl, startled Troy. She seemed like a nice girl but Troy wasn't known for showing new kids around the school. Gabriella was an exception because... well because she was pretty. That was all Troy could think in his mind. He had no idea what to think. "Ms. Darbus? How long are free periods this year?"

[hsmgirl17]

She turned around at the sound of Troy's voice. He seemed like a nice boy to her. She turned around again and faced the front waiting for Ms. Darbus to answer to Troy's question. She raised her hand and asked the time. She couldn't wait to go to the theatre and try to get some info on the musical for this year. She realized that she forgot her pencil so she turned around to the boy who had spoke.

"Excuse me, do you have an extra pencil I can borrow?, I left mine in my locker. I promise I will give it back at the end of this period."

She waited for him to answer.

[Zeke Baylor]

Zeke glared at Marco. He was so mad at him, for many reasons. He did things to his sisters, which was jerkish, and was wrong and AH he just hated him. Everything was going so fast, the new girl walking in, and then talking to Alex. Then, Ryan and himself on both sides, then Ryan sitting down! Ah, everything was crazy in East High. East High is crazy in generally!! He looked back at Marco, he wanted to do something. He then clinched his fists, and lifted up his arms. He was just about to swing until...

Two words. Two evil evil words... Mrs. Darbus!! He jumped at her screams and ran to his seat. It was going to be to late, he was going to get grabbed by the collar and get pulled back and get "the hat" on. The dunce hat was the hat, Mrs. Darbus put on people she hated. He got the hat a lot, she hate him, a lot! As he slowly sat down at the desk, and shook of nervousness and waited for Mrs. Darbus to teach.


As he shook he heard a BANG. He watched the new girl fall on her face. He jumped and slowly got up to go help her. Until he saw she got back up on her own and he sighed. He then got out a piece of paper and wrote:

Dude... sorry bout that... r u ok??

-Zeke Baylor

He folded the paper into 4's and wrote.. To-Lexy on it and then passed it to her and waited for her to read and then respond. He then folded his hand and smiled lightly at himself and went back to daydreaming.

[Alexandra Archer]

Alex was about to rush and help Lexy up when she saw Zeke get there first, she decided to stay back, since he hadn't said anything to her she didn't want him to think her pushy and rude.
Her attentions turned to a boy walking into the classroom, he looked OK, but not her type way too sporty, not like Marco.
She turned to look at him again, he looked so cute and handsome, she knew he was a trouble maker but that was just the way she liked them.

[hsmgirl17]

As Lexy was waiting for Troy to reply she found her pencils between her notebooks. She turned around to tell the boy nevermind and when she faced her desk again, there was a note on her desk. She was a little nervous because who would wanna write to her? She opened the note and read it.
Dude... sorry bout that... r u ok??

-Zeke Baylor

Lexy replied to Zeke's note. She wrote the following on it.
Yeah, I'm used to it. Thanks for asking. My name is Lexy but you probably already know that cause' you wouldn't have wrote it down. Anyways, I appreciate your concern. If there's anything you need don't hesitate to ask. Oh, and you have nothing to apologize for. See ya around.

Sincerely,
Lexy Peterson

Lexy then folded the note, wrote Zeke's name on it and gave it back to Zeke. She hoped that the teacher wasn't watching. Then she went back to her work.

[Bebe Tenko]

Bebe sneakily flipped her indie comic open beneath her desk, smirking as she doodled on the paper that was supposedly for notes. Ms. Darbus' class was always great for drawing, reading, doing homework... basically whatever, as long as you did it quietly. Having someone as blind as Velma of the Scooby Gang as a teacher enabled this...

Bebe noticed that Zeke was passing notes to the new girl who'd just impaled herself. Bebe's nose twitched as she remembered some random things from the summer.

"Psst," Bebe hissed under her breath to the new girl. "I'm Bebe Tenko. Did you break your nose when you fell? If you did, I know how to help. I broke my nose over the summer."

[hsmgirl17]

Lexy turned around at the voice of the girl behind her. She looked at Bebe and put her hand on her nose. There was blood coming out of it and she hadn't noticed before. She was really embarrassed. She turned back to the girl and replied.

"Yes, it is, but how can you help. By the way, my name is Lexy Peterson."
She looked at the girl waiting for her to reply then she asked her something.

"You won't tell about me passing notes, will you?"
This girl looked like one of those girls you don't want to get mixed up with. She liked her though. She didn't know why but she just did.

"This kind of stuff always happens to me" Lexy told Bebe. Anyways, how can you help?" She asked again.

Lexy waited for Bebe's reply?

[Emma the Loyal Sharpette]

Emma didn't even notice the door opening. She was still so entranced by Marco. She still smiled at him, waiting for his response. She suddenly then realized everyone was rushing to their seats. She turned and saw a crazy blonde lady walking to the desk at the front of the room. Emma quickly rushed to her seat, and inspected the teacher. She was dressed crazily, not even close to anything cute or fashionable. She also seemed very controlling.

Emma leaned forward and whispered to Zeke. "Is this the crazy Darbus lady? She seems insane!"

Emma suddenly realized she had to give this lady her papers too for being a transfer student. She quickly got out of her seat, and rushed over and gave the teacher her papers, and rushed back to seat. The less time spent with this lady, the better! Maybe she wouldn't be going out for the musical after all....

[Zeke Baylor]

Zeke got the note back. He read it and then nodded at it and put it in his pocket. He then sighed and went in his little ball and hoped Ms.Darbus wouldn’t see him. He then heard Emma, asking him a question. He nodded and said "Yeah, she is insane. Also... she hat-" he stopped as he saw Ms. Darbus looking at him. He then went back down in his ball and waited for the lady to yell at him.

"I don’t think I will try out for the musical anymore." he whispered to himself.

[Ms. Darbus]

Eleanor sat down in her chair as she saw the students running to their seats. She smiled smugly as she knew she still had some power in this classroom. She waited, as three girls approached her and gave her papers. She examined them all, and nodded. She quickly rose from her chair, and grabbed the papers from her clipboard.

"Good morning and welcome back to another exciting year at East High!" Eleanor smiled at all the students. "First and foremost, let me introduce myself. I am Ms. Darbus. You will address me as Ms. Darbus, not Darbus, not teacher, not anything else. Ms. Darbus. I know a lot of you are returning students to East High, but I'm mostly saying this for those who are new."

Eleanor then cast a glance to the three new girls in the class, as if to tell them to challenge her power, and they will be sorry. She noticed Zeke Baylor playing with a ball, and shot him a look, and then looked towards the dunce cap sitting on her desk. She knew he wouldn’t do anything once, he saw her looking at the cap.

"Of course, we have our usual teams going on. The Academic Decathlon will be meeting today after school, you can talk to Taylor McKessie for more information on that. The Basketball team led by Mr. Bolton is also beginning it's season this afternoon." Eleanor pointed at Taylor and Troy as she mentioned their names. "Of course, you all remember Troy Bolton in our Winter musical last year, and I expect to see him along with many of you at our auditions next week! I'm still deciding on a beautiful show to do, but I'm thinking it might be something a little different then what I have normally done in the past. But I'm sure whatever I chose to do, we will have the perfect talent for the show." Eleanor smiled brightly at Sharpay and Ryan, her favorite students. Yes, it's true she didn't cast them as the leads in the Winter musical last year, but she felt she needed to try something new with Troy and Gabriella. She wanted to prove that the theater department didn't have it's favorites, like the Basketball team obviously did.

Of course, this was entirely untrue. Eleanor favored Ryan and Sharpay more than any of her other students. They could get away with murder, practically and she wouldn't do a thing about it. She turned back to the class and continued on with the morning announcements, when she noticed there were several students talking in her class, while she was talking.

"Are you quite finished with your conversation Miss Tenko and Miss Peterson?" Eleanor hated it when the students talked while she did. She felt like she should give them detention, but decided against it...for now.

"Oh, and one last thing. ABSOLUTELY NO CELL PHONES!" Eleanor bellowed out to her students, just hoping a cell phone would go off and she could confiscate it.

[hsmgirl17]

Lexy got the nod that Zeke had got the note back. He really was a nice guy she thought. She turned around and noticed Ms. Darbus looking at Zeke. Lexy hoped that Ms. Darbus had not seen the note. She was really nervous and her nose was bleeding and she was still waiting for Bebe's reply. She turned back to Bebe and said
"Well?, are you gonna tell me?" she asked.
She waited for her to reply.

Lexy startled when Ms. Darbus had called her name. She turned around hoping that her nose had stopped bleeding and shook her head and apologized.

"Sorry, Ms. Darbus." Lexy said. She really wasn't sure what to think of Ms. Darbus yet. Her outfit looked like Ms. Trelawny's from Harry potter she thought. She laughed in spite of herself and regretted it immediately. She bent her head low so the teacher wouldn't see the blood running down her nose. She quickly wrote a note and handed it to Bebe.
"I'll talk to you after class"
She then folded the note and and gave it to her. She went back to listening to Ms. Darbus. She raised her hand and asked Ms. Darbus a question.
"Um, I've got an idea. We could do Zeussical the Musical, you know, with all the doctor Zeus characters."
She then put her head down emarrassed at speaking in front of the teacher. She didn't know why she got this way. She was hoping Ms. Darbus wouldn't answer her.

[Ryan Evans]

Ryan let out a deep sigh and leaned back in his chair further, looking off at the ceiling for a moment, if this was what the first day, the first class of senior year would be like he couldn't help but be mildly worried for what the year was going to hold for him. He leaned forward again in his chair and turned forward to face Ms. Darbus, with a genuinely bright smile, he couldn't help but be a mild suck up, in doing so he and Sharpay could get away with murder, in a figurative sense.

He gave an nod to nothing in particular, except for the statement Sharpay had made resounding in his head. Yes, the theatre after this He knew that even his thoughts must have sounded panicky and rushed. He gave a weak smile and began to listen to the ramblings of what Ms.Darbus would have to tell them about the year.

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay was about to turn around to the front when Ryan's panicky thought rang clearly in her head. She gave him a look, grinning, before turning her body to the front fully with that same sucking-up smile on her face that is definitely for Ms. Darbus' eyes only. She reached for the inside of her bag, pulling out a pink box, which contains her coming back gift to her favorite teacher. Ms. Darbus shouldn't notice the change in her, it would affect her position in the Drama department. She knew that Eleanor Darbus loves her leadership attitude, which earned her the position of co-president. She couldn't let her know that she was way past that attitude.

She propped her elbows on her desk, twirling a lock of her hair around her finger. Every once in a while, she would glance towards the clock as she tried her best to listen to Ms. Darbus ramblings. Only a few more minutes... she was doing her own countdown in her head.

[hsmgirl17]

Lexy looked at Sharpay with the pink box in her hand. She sat right next to her in homeroom. She looked at Sharpay and gave her a weak smile. "Showoff" she muttered to herself. She hoped that everybody wouldn't think that she's weird cause' she actually gave out an idea about a dr. Seus play.
" Oh, say can you see,
I am bored outta my mind.
I have no idea what to do"
She sung to herself. Then she waited for someone to say or do something.
