Character scene

  Isis woke up to her friend, Rosaline, shaking her and waking her up, saying "hurry up Isis, we're going to be late." "Ugh." Isis groans, "I'm up, can you stop shaking me?" Rosaline left the room and Isis got up out of her warm, comfy bed. She quickly got dressed and grabbed her bag full of her other clothes. She met Rosaline downstairs and grabbed a quick bite.

  10 minutes later, they entered the building. They quickly got changed and went into the studio. "You girls are late." said the instructor. "Sorry" they both muttered and went to go practice some pirouettes and leaps. After a few minutes, the instructor told everyone to gather around for some exciting news. "As you all know, the nutcracker ballet is coming to this town," he starts, "but the reason they are coming is to look for talent and they are looking for the talent here at this studio. So, the best of our dancers might be able to dance in that ballet."

  For the next few days, that was all Rosaline and Isis talked about until the ballet came to town. Most of the dancers tried out and then it was Isis's turn. She was super nervous, but she believed that she could do it. She stated that she would like the lead role. After that it was just doing leaps and turns and bounds, she was in her element, she's been doing this since she was seven. She could do it. She stopped when the judges turned the music off and looked at their faces, they didn't show anything about how well she did. She turned on her heel and left the room. 

  On the way back, the two girls were asking questions about how it went."Did the judges think you were amazing?" Rosaline asks."I don't know, they didn't speak about it, they just turned off the music and talked quietly to each other." Isis states. "Did you even wait for them to say something to you or did they just dismiss you?" Rosaline seems worried. "Um," Isis starts sheepishly, "I just left, I got really nervous because they turned the music off and weren't saying anything to me. Anyways how did yours go?" "They let me do the whole dance and they said they would have to think on whether it's good enough to go on stage and dismissed me." Rosaline says excitedly. They chat a bit more on the dancing and the judges reactions before going home.

  A year later, Isis is dancing professional ballet. She's had a fun time with Rosaline, and they're both getting more and more requests to dance in people's ballets.
