The 13 Leaders

Twenty-Four

The next day, like the past pervious Sundays, was the Battle. "Okay remember guys, keep drinking water." Hoshi said.

"Because things are gonna be going REALLY fast on stage." He added, this was going to be their most extreme performance yet, right up their with Hit.

"Hoshi istg, if I drink any more water I might actually pee myself on stage." Jeonghan said. "You and Dino incorporated too many spins into this dance." He said handing a water bottle to Dk.

"But I know, but we're striving for red here people." Dino laughed as he slid his shoes on, after realizing he was wearing Seungkwan's before.

"Guys! Did you see Nct's outfits?! They look like really hot bikers and I'm pretty sure Taeyong is shirtless!" Seungkwan said barging into their dressing room.

"I'm sorry what?!" Mingyu asked, nearly choking on his water.

"Okay okay, fan boy later! Focus guys! We got this! We're gonna give it our all! Don't faint, and don't loose your voices, and Seungcheol don't kick me in the head during your part!" Hoshi said.

"No promises." Seungcheol winked.

"And remember your counts and windows!" Dk said as they all started at him strangely. "What?! It's a choir thing, windows are very important." He shrugged.

They did one final cheer before they made their way to the backstage waiting area, where they saw Nct, they did infact look like sexy bikers.

"Welcome everyone to the 3rd battle round! Let's give it up for NCT with Punch!" Eric said.

"I- what just happened? So many things just happened I'm still processing." Mingyu said once the song ended.

"Litterally all I remember is alot of whispering, body rolls, punching and ballin." Jun said.

"Seems about right." Dino said (Call back to when Nctzen's could never remember what Punch sounded like when it first came out.)
