TNS Season 8 - A-Troupe VS B-Troupe

Part 1

"I heard what happened, that's devastating."
"But let me tell you something, there's only one team going to Nationals"
"And it's sure isn't yours" said Cleo to A-Troupe.

A-Troupe look each other in an agreeing face slyly.
"Game on" Summer reply.

———————————————————————

Rehearsal day.
A-Troupe is stretching in Studio A but they're divided into groups. On the right side there are Kenzie, Piper, and Finn. In the middle there are Henry, Amy, and Ozzy. And on the left side there are Heath, Summer, Kingston, and Lily.

"Hey" Richelle greets while walking towards the middle group.
"Sorry I'm late, J-Troupe class was a mess" Richelle said quietly. Since Nick was making his decision about this whole Nationals thing, he rarely takes care of J-Troupe and as a 'favor' so Nick will make choose A-Troupe to go to Nationals, they take turns volunteering to teach J-Troupe classes.

"How are they?" Richelle asks Amy and Henry.

"same old same old" answered Henry weakly.

"We really need to settle this" said Amy. "We're not rehearsing, we're not learning, we're not having fun"

"true, start the debate Oz" Richelle orders Ozzy.

"yes-, what? why me?" asked Ozzy confused.

"cause I'm not doing it?" answered Richelle smiling sarcastically. Ozzy looks at Henry with a face asking for help.

"I did it yesterday bro" said Henry, Ozzy sighed in defeat.

"Guys" Ozzy try to draw attention but failed, he looks at Richelle and replied with her hand gesturing to go on. "Guys we need to talk about this" said Ozzy with louder voice which makes A-Troupe stands up.

"What is it that we need to talk about Oz? We all know that WE won regionals and that we deserve to go to Nationals." reply Kingston.

"Oh no no no, it's not that simple, we willingly went to Dancemania and left Nationals, B-Troupe kinda deserves it." said Kenzie.

"What about you two? What do you think about this?" said Heath to Henry and Amy.

"We both really want to go to Nationals dude" reply Henry.

"but B-Troupe is National's ready, I think it's best for the studio" said Amy looking unsure. "I'm still not sure actually, I just want the best for The Next Step" said Amy slightly smiling.

"If you want the best for the studio then WE should go to Nationals" Summer stepping in. "Richelle and I have been the Face of Absolute Dance it's an advantage for us, we all alsowent to Dancemania which makes us more experienced than B-Troupe."

"We're not saying that B-Troupe is better than us cause they aren't" said Kenzie followed by an "oooo" by Kingston. "but we can't just take away their chance. We left Nationals and went to Dancemania"

"Yeah but we're not on Dancemania anymore" said Heath replying to Kenzie.

"Yes, it's like when you have a blue car, but someone gave you a red car and you use the red car but the red car broke when you use it so you want your blue car back."
"It's totally normal" said Lily.

"Except we kinda gave the blue car to someone else, you can't just take it back like it was always yours." reply Kingston.

"oH, so you're on their side now?" reply Lily angrily.

"Yes actually, on second thought I will act mature and give B-Troupe what they deserve" reply Kingston while he's walking toward the Kenzie, Piper, and Finn.

"Oh come on" said Heath.

"Why don't we just buy another blue car?" said Finn.

"Finn it's really not the time" replied Piper to Finn.

"Wait he got a point." said Summer. "We all want to go to nationals right? the only thing that's holding us back is because we respect and we think B-Troupe deserves it since we left for Dancemania. But what if we can qualify to nationals too?"

"No chance, TNS East and West didn't even allowed to qualify Regionals because we were counted as one studio" objects Henry. "Also they don't hold an open qualifier like Regionals does, the only way to qualify is to win Regionals"

"Well, I've got some experience with that" says a tall elegant woman with black dress.

"Amanda?"
