The Selection Role~Play discussion

((thanks Julie))

Bella and Eli walked in. well actually, Bella skipped in. "Volia!" she said said.

"Miss Bella" said a girl who was behind the desk. when she got up, she stood about 5'6. she had meddium long hair which was a light brown color, and curly. her eyes were a light shade of gree. she smiled. "pleasure to see you again" she said, as she curtsied. "how may i help you?' she asked

"Hi Monique" said Bella. "We are just looking for a swim suit for Eli here" she said.

Eli did a small wave,"I like orange."

Bella giggled.

Monique smiled "Orange it is" she said. she lead them to a rack with only orange swim suits. the store was all color coated.

While shifting through the suits Eli asked, "See any you like Bell?" He couldn't decide if he wanted simple board shorts, or one with a crazy design.

"they all look the same to me" she said. she skipped over to the cash desk, and asked Monique something.

Monique nodded with a smile.

Eli felt his cheeks burn with blush. He didn't know what to do; he had never been able to pick anything out for himself before. Back home, he was too poor and just wore whatever was cheapest.

Monique had disappeared to the back of the store. she came back pulling a rack of swim wear for dudes. "try these" she said with a smile.

These were all a bit more simple. something that you would find in any old beach store.

she let him look through the rack. she went back to her seat, and chatted a bit with Bella.

The new rack made Eli feel more comfortable. He was going through them, and about to pick out an orange one with white stripes on the side, when he saw a peculiar design on the wall. His hand froze when he saw the familiar pattern and he exclaimed, “Holy Neptune.” Eli walked over, still unsure if he was seeing right. “Monique, is this a…did he…I mean, is this a Travis Lynn?”

When Eli was 11, Travis Lynn came to his provenance to surf. It was hurricane season, and the waves looked like they were going to pass judgment on the poor mortals. The guy was a God; Eli never saw him wipe out once. Eli knew he was supposed to go inside, but he couldn’t leave the beach. He just stood there drenched not even feeling the cold. After a while, Eli built up his courage and went out to join him. But, his board was homemade out of wood, and it couldn’t handle the waves. It spilt in half and Eli went under. Travis actually saved Eli, and pulled him ashore. Eli was so embarrassed he almost started crying, but then Travis said, “Damn kid, it’s like you were born from the sea. I’ve never seen someone feel the waves like that. What are you doing with such a crappy board?” Eli told him he was a four and couldn’t afford a store made one. Without pausing, Travis got up and pulled his spare board out of the sand and handed it to Eli. “Here, take this one. It’s a little big for you now, but you’ll grow into it.” Eli idolized him ever since.

Lynn boardshorts were usually a little strange, but weird fit Eli’s personality. To him they just looked cool. He turned to Bella, almost afraid and asked, “Is there any way I can get these? Are they too expensive?”

"They are Travis Lynn's" said Monique. "He is my dad's cousin" she said. "This is actually his shop, but he is out of the country at the moment" she said.

"take 'em" said Bella handing him the credit card.

"Thank you Bella!" He picked up Bella and swung her around. This is so awesome, I can't wait to tell Claire!
He handed Monique the credit card and the board shorts. " So it must be pretty cool being related to Travis Lynn."

"not really" mumbled Monique. she was barely audible. she scanned the item, and swiped the card. she put the swim shorts in a bag and handed it, and the credit card back.

"Hey Monique, are you going to come play Volley Ball with With us?" asked Bella. "Aaron is still not admitting that you beat him last time." she added

Monique Laughed. "Oh I'll be there" she said

"Sounds fun." He turned to Bella, "Where can I get some regular clothes and dress clothes? Is there anything you need to get?"

"oh no i'm fine" she said. "There is a shop across the street with dress cloths" she said

"oh boy" mumbled Monique. If she was right, Bella was referring to the store where her brother worked. not the best time to be around him, especially now.

"Shall we get going? It was nice meeting you Monique. I guess I'll see you on the beach."

"yeah sure" said Monique. "Oh and Bella, my brothers on duty" she said softly to Bella.

"Uhm, How about we go to a different store" offered Bella, knowing what Monique was hinting to. "there is another one just up the road" she offered.

"Lead the way."

she did. she lead him to store called "The BEST for the BEST".

(ugh I just realized I didn't respond sorry)

Eli just grabbed various colors of shirts and shorts. "This stuff works right?"

"yup" she said happily.

He paid for the clothes then turned back to Bella,"So we should go to that place across the street right?"

"uh, i ,uhmmmm" she started to stammer. Monique had said her brother was there, and it was never good to be around him.

"Come on, let's go." Eli left Best for the Best and started heading for the other store.

Bella Begged that Monique's brother was not there. As they Approached the store, the could see Monique. She seemed to be yelling at someone.

"Is she okay?" Eli quickened his pace and walked into the store, where he found Monique in an argument with some guy. "Hey dude! Back off! You're supposed to treat girls with respect."

Monique turned around to see Eli, and Bella. Her cheeks were already pinkish from yelling at her brother, but now they turned a darker shade of pink.

Carlos scolded at the guy. "mind your own business" he snapped. Carlos was 6'5, with pitch black hair, and eyes that were as dark as the deepest part of the world. He looked like the kind of guy, who would by a hamster, and then feed it to a snake.

great, just great thought Monique. "Please, just go" she said to Eli, and Bella.

"yeah go" said Carlos. " Respect her, by leaving" he said.

"shut up Carlos" snapped Monique, glaring daggers at him.

Judging by the way Carlos was standing, Eli was supposed to be intimated. Maybe to an average height male, he’d seem daunting, but Eli was 6’2 and had been friends with Barry who was 6’6 for almost a year now. Eli wasn’t looking for a fist fight though; he just wanted to make sure Monique was okay. He quickly pulled little Bella behind him however. “I’m not going anywhere till you calm down. Plus, we’re paying customers. You’re supposed to give us respect.”

Monique was still glaring daggers at Carlos. "Just get out Carlos, before i call the cops again" she warned.

Carlos growled, but left, but not forgetting to slam the door. he had a record already. he did not need anything else on his record.

Monique sighed, glad he was gone. "sorry you had to see that" she said quietly.

“You okay?” Eli asked gently.

she took a deep breath, and smiled bravely. "yeah im fine" she said.

Bella went over to Monique and hugged her.

Monique smiled at Bella. "im fine i promise" she reassured Bella.

"Who was that guy?"

"my, uhm, my brother" said Monique quietly.

Eli knew better than to insult family, so he held his tongue. But that guy had a serious attitude problem. He tried to lighten the mood, "So what suit is sharp enough to make even me look good?"

she smiled lightly, glad he was trying to lighten the mood. she sighed lightly, and picked one that she thought would look nice on him.

He laughed nervously,"Uh, that's a really nice suit. But I don't know if Bella told you how I eat, I need to avoid white. It'll end up rainbow colored."

she laughed. "okay then, how about this one" she said holding up this one:

"Oh wow, nice!" He tried it on, "So do I looking charming?" he asked, striking his best princely pose.

she smiled softly. the smile may have been small, but it brought a light sparkle to her eyes. "very charming" she said.

Bella ran over to see. "awesome!" she said. "oh and get some sport wear" she said. "your going to need it if your going to play volleyball against Monique" she added

"I'll just play in my bathing suit. It'll work to my favor to distract her with my amazing physique." He flexed his muscles and gave Monique a playful grin.

she held back a giggle. "Well, im not THAT easily distracted" she said "but, i have a feeling you will be" she said, leaving that to hang in the air.

He wasn't sure exactly what she meant, but Eli was happy to see Monique smiling. "If I did want some sports gear, where could I find it?"

"at the back over there" she said pointing to the back of the store" she added.

"Look Monique, I trust you. You seem to have good taste. Here's the thing, we really need to be getting back to the hotel to finish setting up, is there anyway you could pick out the remaining stuff I need, and have it sent to the hotel? Pretty please?"

"sure" she said

"Thanks so much." Eli took out the cell phone he was given and called Barry. They weren't going to have enough time to check on the food. He had gotten a text message saying the girls were starting to come already. Eli asked Barry if he would come take care of the food. Then he and Bella went to the hotel to check on the rooms.

Monique started to pick a bunch of cloths. at this rate, she would be done in less then 20 minutes, and then be out on the beach within 30.

Moniques step-father, King Richard the 4th, brought her to the shop basement. he got his guards to duct tape her to a chair. "you have been a very bad girl these few year" he said. "imagine what your house cleaning mother would think." he said
"Don't talk about my mother you son of a-" she was cut off when King Richard Slapped her.
"You talk with some repect" he snapped. "or you will suffer more that that" he said.
"you will never get away with this" she snapped.
"Oh i will. I am the King of England" he said. "I can get away with anything" he said.
"no, your not a King, you are a worthless excuse for a king" she yelled.
"gag her" said King Richard to his men. They did as told. "check her for a cell phone" he said. They pulled Moniques cell phone out, and handed it to King Richard. "Let's see if you are worth dieing for" he said to Monique.
Monique tried to scream. NO NO NO!!! she knew what he was going to do. He was going after anyone close to her.

---------------------------------

King Richard opened up the Cell phone. The first number was Bella's. He dialed. the phone started to ring.

"you will pay for that" said King Richard as he slapped Madeline, leaving a red mark. she was crying, but was not going to give in.
"im not affraid of you" she said.
"you should be" he said as he ordered his guards to tie her up once more. They duct taped her mouth this time, and stuffed her in the closet, so she could not make any noise.

Madeline noticed that someone was pushing a small pipe under the door. it started to spew out some sort of gas. No. not this. she did not want to die this way. she tried to block the pipe, but it was no use. she was tied up to tightly. she hated her life right now.
