SCENE 1
[ Backstage at
the State Cheer Offs. ]
“Alright girls, listen up!”
[ Amber is standing in front of 11
of her team mates. ]
AMBER: We’ve come a long way.
No one thought we could make
It this far but we’re here.
Now it’s time to focus on our
goal. Be
strong, fast, and
sharp.
No mistakes tonight!
[ As everyone passes by Amber
on their way out to the floor,
she waits for her best friend
to come up. ]
KEYSHA: Ready?
AMBER: You know it. I can never
tell where those other bimbos
heads are at.
KEYSHA: Don’t make me laugh.
AMBER: Boy obsessed.
[ Suddenly they hear their name
over the loud speakers & Amber
joins the rest of her team on
the field. ]
[ Amber is in front & everyone
Is waiting for her signal. ]
SCENE 2:
[ The audience is silent as
Amber’s team performs, her
eyes are fixed onto the judges.
Its time for the last move &
everyone waits as Amber starts
flipping down passed each girl.
Going for the last jump she trips
up & lands hard on her leg. ]
[ The crowd gasps as Keysha
runs over, helping Amber back
stage. ]
[ While Amber is icing her knee,
the rest of the team has left
except for her friend. ]
KEYSHA: No big deal.
People
fall at these competitions
all the time.
AMBER: Yeah, girls who suck
anyway. I don’t
understand.
It went perfect this morning.
KEYSHA: At least you have all
summer for this to blow over.
Next school year it won’t even
matter.
AMBER: I guess, well I’m going
to talk with the others.
SCENE 3
[ The team is gathered & Amber
starts to speak. ]
AMBER: I know you girls aren’t
exactly my biggest fan right now.
But I just wanted to let everyone
know that I won’t be returning
next year.
KEYSHA: You’re not serious.
AMBER: Yeah, I am.
This is my 2nd lose at State.
All that time and energy
preparing. I’d
rather be
doing something else.
Bye girls.
[ Everyone watches as Amber
exits the building. ]
