Main Auditorium, Yukihi High School.
1:18 pm.
At that mont, that place was where the whole school was gathering.
First, Second, and Third Year students all flocked to the auditorium.
Professors and school inspectors tried to keep the place organized, but the students were too excited about the upcoming debate, so the auditorium was filled with loud sounds of
conversations.
After all, soon they would be voting on who would be heading their student school activities for the entire duration of the school year.
anwhile, at backstage, the three campaign group candidates gathered around the school principal.
"I gathered you guys here to decide on the order of speeches on the upcoming debate." The principal started saying with a smile.
Vivian's group and the others beca excited and nervous at the sa ti. That's because if they were able to deliver their speech lastly, their words would be able to stay with the crowd longer.
"In this bowl, there are three papers with numbers 1 to 3. The group that draws the number 1 will be the first to speak, and consequently, the group that draws 2 will be the second to speak. The group that draws 3 will be the last to speak. You guys can pick up your numbers now." The principal said as he lifted up the bowl.
Each group looked at each other as they deliberated on who would be responsible for drawing the number. It had to be soone lucky.
After a minute of deliberation, the three groups finally decided on their chosen ones.
Vivian's group decided that Aurora was their chosen one.
The three people neared the principal as they looked at each other, each one of them wanted to be first to draw the number, but they didn't know how to do it.
It was then that the girl that ca from Brenda's group spoke first, "Aurora-senpai, Mato- senpai, sure you two will let your cute kouhai draw the number first, right?"
Brenda's group was made entirely of people from the first year, and it was common sense that senpais had to take care of their kouhais. But this was a competition, it didn't matter if they were senpais or kouhais!
Vivian's group and Winston's group were annoyed by her play, but they had to maintain their appearances in front of the principal, so the two groups could only agree with her idea.
"Sure, Tynn, your senpais will concede the turn to you dar first. And I'm sure Winston-senpai will concede to the turn to draw for second, right?" Aurora said with an amiable smile.
Winston greeted his teeth in anger, but he could only smile and agree, "Yes, my two kouhais can draw their numbers first. I'll be the last."
Soon, Tynn put her hand into the bowl and picked up a paper. Aurora was soon after, and Winston drew the last number of the bowl.
Each person opened their paper as soon as they picked it up.
Aurora let out an exclamation as soon as she saw the number on her paper, she looked at Vivian and the girls and said with a smile, "We are the last to speak!"
"Yay!" Umaru and Carolla commorated.
Vivian only let out a satisfied and relieved smile.
In the end, Brenda's group would be the second to speak and Winston's group would be the first to speak.
Winston's group greeted their teeth in anger as they watched Brenda's group and Vivian's group excited by their luck.
"Now that the order is decided, we can move on to the debate. The group that draws the number 1 can start preparing as they can start their presentation in 10 minutes when everyone arrives at the auditorium. Also, I have to warn..." The principal spent a couple of minutes giving them instructions before leaving to gather with the other professors to watch the debate.
As soon as the principal left the backstage, the three groups gave up on the appearances and started glaring at each other.
"You guys think you already won, but I have to tell you that this election already has a winner." Winston said with a smile.
"That's right, senpai. Thank you for saying out loud that we will win." Brenda replied with a sarcastic smile.
Vivian didn't want to waste ti with them, so she said coldly, "I hope you two are more than two blabbers or this election will be too easy to win." She said that as she left the place with Aurora and the other two.
Winston's group glared at Vivian's cold figure in anger, it made them insanely mad that Vivian didn't even take them seriously, she flatly ignored them!
While Brenda's group got offended to be put together with idiots like Winston.
But Brenda soon recovered from Vivian's jab and said with a smile, "Vivian-senpai is cold as always. We'll leave as well. I'm rooting for you Winston-senpai. It would be such a pity if the crowd forgot your speeches as they listened to ours and Vivian's speeches." She and her group left the place between laughs.
anwhile, on the side of the auditorium, Vivian and the girls arrived at a place where they could see the stage clearly and monitor the crowd's reactions.
"I know we started lucky, but we can't get over ourselves. Although Winston looks stupid, he wouldn't be able to compete with us so fiercely if he was dumb. We have to be careful with him and Brenda as well." Vivian comnted as she looked at the excited crowd.
"Yeah, I agree. Plus, he has experience in these kinds of debates from previous years." Umaru comnted.
"How are our preparations?" Aurora asked.
"Fred and the others are spread all over the auditorium to give us support." Carolla replied as she showed them the texts that they sent in the group chat.
"Great, this way we try to guide the crowd. But I'm sure Winston and Brenda thought of the sa thing." Vivian comnted.
Aurora looked at the cards in her hands that had her speech and presentation as she tried to do
a last-minute check.
"Are you confident, Aurora-chan?" Umaru asked.
"To be honest, I'm a little nervous to speak to so many people. But I think I can handle it." Aurora replied with a nervous smile.
"Aurora-chan, we know you can do it!" Carolla said with a sweet smile.
"Yes, we believe in you. Just be yourself and your job will be much easier." Vivian said with a
smile as well.
"Thank you, girls." Aurora replied with a bright smile.
Umaru and Carolla soon left to do their jobs.
The two would also be responsible for guiding the crowd.
Vivian and Aurora reviewed their own speeches as they waited for the debate to start.
They didn't have to wait for long as the last student soon entered the auditorium.
When everyone was dutifully in their seats, the lights on the stage lit up.
The 2021 Student Debate was about to start!
Who would be the final winner at the end of it?
