Back To The Old Days(Transcript)

The choir went to the auditorium to meet up with the theater kids and orchestra kids. Zoe and George are both reading a book which is a history book because they have to study for a history quiz.

Jenny: Hey Reece, you alright?

Reece: I'm good.

Jenny: Good, oh this is the school's official orchestra conductor, Samuel.

Samuel: Hi, nice to meet you. You must be Reece right?

Reece: That's me. And this is my choir, sorry if 2 of them are reading books.

Samuel: Why is that?

Zoe: We have another history quiz.

George: This time it's about Mesopotamian, Chinese and Indian civilizations. Zoe is good at these stuff so she has to help me in that.

Jenny: It's fine, even Raphael, Yuto, Aidan and Kandace are studying about it.

Samuel: Really? Because you guys got juniors in your clubs, we only have freshmen and seniors.

Jenny: Enough talking, I need to direct this stage play. Reece, your choir can practice but please let George and Zoe review.

Reece: Sure, thanks.

Everyone else went to their places. George and Zoe are still reading while the rest of the choir are practicing their parts in the play. After that, Blake and Brad went up to their little sister along with Troy.

Blake: Is that what you're studying about in history?

Zoe and George: Yes.

Brad: Have you fed your brain enough knowledge.

Zoe: Yes.

George: I don't think so, that's why Zoe is helping me.

Zoe: Yup.

Kandace: Hey Zoe, can you get me the props so that the set design kids would build the set up?

Zoe: Sure.

Zoe used her powers and gave the props to her friend, Kandace.

Kandace: Thanks. Studying history I see?

George: Yes.

Kandace: Alright, cuz Raphael, Yuto, Aidan and I are also studying. Even Anya is studying even though she has to help the other set design kids. To bad she got so many complaints.

Zoe: Yeah.

Kandace went back to the stage. Then George asked something to Zoe.

George: Zoe, do you think the Xia Dynasty exists?

Zoe: I don't think so, it is semi-legendary because there is no mention of that dynasty recorded in the Shang Dynasty so the first dynasty is actually the Shang Dynasty. China has been under dynastic rule for 2,000 years following the Zhou dynasty, Qin dynasty, Han dynasty(Western Han, Xin, Eastern Han), the three kingdoms(Wei, Shu, Wu), Jin dynasty, Northern and Southern dynasties, Sui dynasty. Tang dynasty, the five dynasties and ten kingdoms(Song, Northern Song, Southern Song, Liao, Western Xia and Jin), Yuan dynasty, Ming dynasty and the Qing dynasty. Followed by the boxer revolution turning dynastic rule to an end in 1912. Following the revolution, the Republic of China was established with their first president being Sun Yat-Sen.

George: What about the communism and stuff like that?

Zoe: Mr. Parker said that we should only learn the dynastic times, not the communist bit.

George: What about India? What are we learning about?

Zoe: The Indus Valley, not about the Buddhism and Nirvana.

Then Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana started playing and Aidan started singing.

Song: Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana

Aidan: #Load up on guns, bring your friends #It's fun to lose and to pretend #She's over-bored and self-assured #Oh no, I know a dirty word #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello #With the lights out, it's less dangerous #Here we are now, entertain us #I feel stupid and contagious #Here we are now, entertain us #A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido #Yeah, hey #I'm worse at what I do best #And for this gift I feel blessed #Our little group has always been #And always will until the end #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello #With the lights out, it's less dangerous #Here we are now, entertain us #I feel stupid and contagious #Here we are now, entertain us #A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido #Yeah, hey #And I forget just why I taste #Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile #I found it hard, it's hard to find #Oh well, whatever, never mind #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello, how low #Hello, hello, hello #With the lights out, it's less dangerous #Here we are now, entertain us #I feel stupid and contagious #Here we are now, entertain us #A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido #A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial #A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial #

George: Aidan, not that Nirvana, Nirvana as in Buddhism.

Aidan: Sorry, my bad.

Zoe: Also, shouldn't we be studying?

Aidan: Oh, right.

Zoe: Where was I? We're not studying about that because this is a Protestant school, literally everyone here is Protestant. Except for Aidan because he's Catholic and Troy because he's Jewish.

George: What else about India we're not studying about?

Zoe: The British Raj, you know when we colonized the Indian subcontinent.

George: What else are we studying about?

Zoe: Mesopotamia and that's it.

George: So we're learning about China, India and Mesopotamia right?

Zoe: Absolutely.

George: I think that's it about what we're studying, I wanna have a break now.

Zoe: Me too, let's meet up with the guys, yeah?

The choir is just helping the set design and theater kids with the set.

George: Mind if we help too?

Reece: Sure.

Zoe: So quick question, how did you form this choir?

Reece: It started 2 years ago when I was 15...

Scene cuts to the school in 2017, Reece and Blake were talking to each other in line up. Reece is narrating. (Narration: '*')

Reece: *Ms. Jackson wanted the school to have a choir for some activities like when the queen is coming or during school plays. So she assigned me to be the choir director.*

Ms. Jackson: Mr. Reece Brown, you are now chosen to be the choir director, so please choose the people who will join.

Reece: Alright, so I choose, Blake Richardson, James McVey, Tristan Evans, Luke Hemmings, Calum Hood, Michael Clifford and Ashton Fletcher Irwin. You 7, welcome to the choir. *Then after that, I decided to audition the juniors to be in the choir. Everyone was completely bad, some don't even care about the choir but themselves. So I chose Brad, Troy and Connor to join.* You 3, welcome to the choir.

Brad: Thank you very much, also my brother is there.

Brad pointed at Blake.

Blake: Hi Brad, congratulations!

Reece: *We were having fun, performing, playing games and stuff like that. A year later, I turned 16 along with most of my choir and we had just entered seniors. Brad, Troy and Connor turned 14 and were about to reach freshman year. I decided to audition the Year 7 kids to enter the choir. Everyone wanted to join except for a blonde young boy who looks really sick and pale. I came up to him and asked if he could join the choir.* Hey, what's your name?

George: George.

Reece: George, nice name. So George, do you want to audition with your friends.

George: I dunno, I have no friends.

Reece: Oh, you can audition if you want, I'm not forcing you.

George: I'll try.

Scene cuts back to the present day.

Zoe: Wait, that's how you first met?

George: Yes, my voice sounds like an angel.

Scene cuts back to the year 2018, George is auditioning to be part of the choir.

Song: Wonderwall by Oasis

George: #Today is gonna be the day #That they're gonna throw it back to you #By now you should've somehow #Realized what you gotta do #I don't believe that anybody #Feels the way I do, about you now #Backbeat, the word was on the street #That the fire in your heart is out #I'm sure you've heard it all before #But you never really had a doubt #I don't believe that anybody #Feels the way I do about you now #And all the roads we have to walk are winding #And all the lights that lead us there are blinding #There are many things that I #Would like to say to you but I don't know how #Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me #And after all, you're my wonderwall #Today was gonna be the day #But they'll never throw it back to you #By now you should've somehow #Realized what you're not to do #I don't believe that anybody #Feels the way I do, about you now #And all the roads that lead you there are winding #And all the lights that light the way are blinding #There are many things that I #Would like to say to you but I don't know how #I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me #And after all, you're my wonderwall #I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me #And after all, you're my wonderwall #I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me #you're gonna be the one that saves me #you're gonna be the one that saves me# Thank you.

Everyone gave an applause.

Reece: Congratulations George, you are now part of the choir. *George was happy, he get to have new friends in the choir and he was never alone.*

Scene cuts back to the present day.

Reece: Until a year later, recently, you joined us. You became the first girl because everyone else is male. Now people joining the choir became less because they think they have no talent. Also people are joining the theater club, I don't mind because the theater club needs more kids than the choir club.

George: At least we have Shawn.

Reece: I know.

Song: Memory by Jennifer Hudson

Reece: #Memory, turn your face to the moonlight #Let your memory leave you #Open up, enter me #If you find there, the meaning of what happiness is #Then a new life will begin #Memory, all alone in the moonlight #I can smile at the old days #I was beautiful then #I remember the time I knew what happiness was #Let the memory live again #Burnt out ends of smokey days #The stale, cold smell of morning #The streetlamp dies, another night is over #Another day is dawning #Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise #I must think of a new life #And I mustn't give in #When the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory too #And a new day will begin#

George: #Sunlight through the trees in summer #Endless masquerading#

Both: #Like a flower, as the dawn is breaking#

Reece: #The memory is fading #Touch me, it's so easy to leave me #All alone with the memory #Of my days in the sun #If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is #Look, a new day has begun#

Blake: Haven't heard you sing before.

Reece: Pardon?

Brad: Yeah, it sounds like an angel.

Reece: Thanks guys, this is the reason why I made this choir.

Jenny: And the reason why I made this theater club. Now let's continue doing this work.

Everyone continued working on the set until it is finally done. It looks amazing and parents, students and teachers from different schools can see this.

Jenny: Look gang, we did it, Year 7 and 8, if you still need to review about your history quiz, you may continue.

Zoe: Actually we already finished studying.

Jenny: Good, but how can we change the set whenever the scene changes?

Zoe: I can help.

Everyone watched as Zoe used her powers to change the ancient Egypt scene to the red sea scene. They are so impressed.

Reece: That's very impressive of you.

Zoe: That way, the set design kids will get a break.

Anya: That's right, thanks Zoe.

Everyone: (laughs)
