The warblers were really good. The unitards were also really good. We are stuck between really good and really good. This is going to be a tough call.

The teams still seems ready to win. Some of us are worried like me though. I'm also trying to figure out something. Where did the New Directions all go?

They all got transferred after they lost. Apparently will hadn't contacted parents when making the contract. He also didn't mention he put their child's high school at risk. Shelby didn't know till a few days later.

The lights flicker and we get ready to go to the stage. This is it now. We find out who wins and who loses. Has this all really been worth it?

"Hey" I look to my left and see sugar smiling with her hand out "You ready?"

"No" I give her a true smile back and take her hand "But I'm less scared with you"

She gives my hand a squeeze and we walk outside. We head to the backstage area and then onto the stage. Everyone is standing in their groups. The announcer walks on stage holding a envelope.

"Ladies and gentleman! I have your results!" He opens the envelope "In...is this right?..ok! In second place is the unitards! Which means tying for first is the Dalton Warblers and McKinley Trouble Tones!"

"NO!" We all look and I finally see Finn standing with the warblers "There can't be a tie! One of us has to win fair and square!"

"He's right" A brown haired boy steps forward "Let's do a Christmas song sing off! Solo vs solo!"

"Fine" Shelby steps forward "Anyone have a coin?"

The announcer pulls out a quarter "Tones are heads and Warblers are tails" He looks between the groups "Ready?"

"I've got my song" Finn steps forward "Do any of you?"

"I do" Sugar steps forward as he sneers at her "I'd love to beat your homophobic behind"

"The loser of this will get third place since it wasn't announced" The announcer flips the quarter and it lands on tails "Dalton is up first"

We walk off stage and I watch sugar. She seems to be in her own little world. Like she's preparing for the biggest night of her life. Like she's preparing to give it her all or fight to keep it from being nothing at all.

I turn and see finn on the stage. His ass is going down.

-Finn singing-

The snow's coming down
I'm watching it fall
Lots of people around
Baby please come home

The church bells in town
All ringing in song
Full of happy sounds
Baby please come home

They're singing "Deck The Halls"
But it's not like Christmas at all
'Cause I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year

Pretty lights on the tree
I'm watching them shine
You should be here with me
Baby please come home

They're singing "Deck The Halls"
But it's not like Christmas at all
'Cause I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year

If there was a way
I'd hold back this tear
But it's Christmas day
Please please please please
Baby please come home
Baby please come home
Baby please come home
Baby please come home
Please come home

The crowd kind of claps for him as he walks off. Sugar walks to the announcer and judges. She seems to have a conversation with them and nods. She seems happy with the answer she was given by them
