No Hate to both A Troupe and B Troupe, Some characters have been emphasised in this chapter, Who do u think should go to nationals? I think B Troupe deserve it but I want A Troupe to go🥰

The Next Step Dance Studio had qualified for nationals...twice, with two troupes! Let's just say Nick was a tad outnumbered in who to pick, his heart was with B Troupe and how hard they have worked, but his gut said that A Troupe would be the better choice...it was all a huge mess and Nick had lost control of both teams. Both troupes had unleashed an all out civil war...pranks, tricks, arguments, fights. It had gotten so bad that Nick had to call off both J Troupe and Baby Ballet classes for the next week in an attempt to calm the troupes and sort something out, like that was gonna do any good...

Piper and Finn were just spending some time to themselves in studio A, it was no secret that tensions were high and dancing together was one of the only pleasant things as of such, they had choreographed a hip hop duet and it was really coming together...they were thinking about asking Nick if they could enter in a small competition with it if Nick was brave enough to let them... they hadn't played a part in any of the mischief so they didn't see why not? As the music came to a stop, The pair smiled warmly across the room at eachother, "Yes! We killed that!" Finn exclaimed excitedly leading Piper to giggle softly, "Bub we still need to fix the tutting section but other than that, I think it was pretty good" "Nah I think it was fire! We don't need any more rehearsal today..." he tried to reason. Piper pulled out the pout and puppy dog eyes, "pleaseeeeeee" she asked once more, Finn couldn't resist her face, sighing deeply he made his way over to her, "Fineee, anything for you my little HunnyBun" he smirked as he reached her pecking her lips gently, her hands resting on his shoulders as he did so, once they both pulled away Piper rested her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around him, him following suit with the actions, "I love you, but if you ever call me HunnyBun in public ever again, I'll set James on you, that's for cuddles only...my little Yogi Bear" she smirked into his chest using her secret nickname for him, "Tonight I want cuddles, but come on then...let's tut" Finn smiled as they resumed their rehearsal...

Cleo was pissed, someone had cut up her speaker charger using scissors, she was relying on that speaker for rehearsing at home for Nationals, she needed revenge and she needed it now. "What the hell?! This has A Troupe written all over it!" Ethan spat as the pair inspected the damage left with a post it with ";)" on it in Cleo's locker, someone was about to pay for this, and it wasn't going to be pretty...

It was a form of wrong place, wrong time. Piper had just finished her rehearsal with Finn and was meeting him in the Next Steep before they were gonna go have dinner with Finn's family, it was his Mums birthday. Entering the locker room she was met with Cleo and Ethan looking sternly at something in her locker...Piper hasn't had or tried to cause any trouble with the B Troupers so she didn't see a reason to not carry on as normal, "oh Hey guys" she greeted kindly as she usually would, As Piper began rummaging through her own locker, putting away her own stuff and starting to pull out her street wear to change into from her dance wear which consisted of a sports bra, shirt and shorts, and into her black jeans, top and velvet jacket, the sound of Cleo's locker smashing shut snapped her out of her daze...uh oh.

"YOU! You did this!" Cleo screeched as she pushed Piper up against the lockers, a horrendous sound echoing through the room from the impact, "I...I don't understand" Piper whispered in fear, "This! This Piper! You and your self centred team did this!" She flapped, waving the charger in front of Piper's face violently, "Look Cleo I'm sorry about the wire if it was important to you but I have no ide-" Piper was cut off by Cleo slapping her across the face, As Piper grasped her cheek in pure shock, She was launched forward with the sound of ripping, Cleo had ripped her shirt off of her, smirking... "Grab her!" Cleo demanded Ethan to which he complied, "No stop! PLEASE!" Piper screamed as Ethan dug his fingernails into her arms tightly as Cleo grabbed something from her bag, Ethan grabbed Piper by the hair pulling her head back, "Stop!" Piper cried out in a whisper as Cleo wrote the word "Dirty" across her forehead in eyeliner, Ethan inspecting her handiwork and sniggering "Dirty huh?" He laughed before following Cleo to the costume cupboard and pushing Piper to the floor in there before closing the door and bolting it on the outside and turning the lights off, Piper's screams and banging on the door frantically were numbing to anyone, "Please let me out!!" "Keep screaming, you're not getting out of there!" Cleo spat before both of them grabbed their stuff and left, leaving Piper pounding on the door, crying and screaming.

Meanwhile in The Next Steep, Finn was tapping his foot waiting for Piper with his baby sister Star sat on his knee both of them were dressed and ready to go, Amy entered the small cafe and noticed Finn at the table with Star, "Hey Finn, I thought you guys were going to dinner?" She asked concerned for why they haven't left yet, "Yea we are but Piper's still not here, she's not answering her phone either, I'm getting a bit worried to be honest" he admitted honestly, "Well she's probably braiding her hair, those plaits are fiddly and she can't answer her phone when doing them" Amy tried to think of an explanation to the situation, Finn was about to respond but was interrupted by Star... "Can Piper hurry up!? I want chicken nuggetttsssss!" She whined, elongating her words, "I know you want chicken nuggets Star, look Amy could you watch her for me for like 5 minutes while I go and find Piper?" Finn asked his friend hopefully, "Yea sure...Star can you show me your drawing? I can show you how to draw a really cool S if you like?" Amy agreed, almost instantly distracting Star while Finn slipped out of the cafe.

As Finn entered he saw a confusing scene, Pipers locker was open with her clothes scattered on the floor, a torn piece of fabric across the room, Piper's phone face down on the ground outside her locker. "Pipes?" He called out for her, "Finn!" Was the muffled scream he heard back from the other side of the costume cupboard door, "Pipes are you in there?" He asked, pressing his face up against the door. "Finn! Finn please let me out! Please open the door!" She begged, banging on the door, "Ok, ok" he soothed and unbolted the door revealing a distraught Piper, Finn couldn't believe what he saw, Piper was attacked? He instantly removed his denim jacket and wrapped it around her shoulders before helping her stand, leading her to the couch and sitting her in his lap, "Who did this Pipes?" She remained silent for a moment until she finally spoke "Cleo..and Ethan" she spoke reluctantly, Finn was fuming but he had to hold himself together. After a while Finn helped Piper remove the writing from her head and brushed out her hair, while she was changing Finn went to Nick, Piper filling in the gaps that he had missed in his explanation.

The next week Nick called a meeting and revealed that due to recent behaviour A Troupe will be attending Nationals, B Troupe were fuming with Cleo...but karmas a bitch. And as for who broke her charger, it turned out to be Cleo's sister who was annoyed over something outside of the studio, lesson of the day...what goes around comes around.

After Finns mother's birthday dinner, Piper spent the night at Finns and you can be certain that there was lots of cuddles involved, Yogi Bear and HunnyBun, soulmates.
