-20 minutes later-

I wonder what song we're going to do for the first round...

Wait, maybe I should explain.

The competition is set up with the bracket system.

We'll go against one team, then if we succeed we'll move up throughout the ranks until we make it to the end where we'll be paired up against another team that also succeeded through its own ranks.

If we can make it through five teams then we'll be able to perform against the team that also went through five teams.

Only five teams to go through but also only three days to practice until the competition officially begins.

Then we also have to go through the judges ratings of course.

We'll be judged on : singing quality, performance, look, dance, synchronization (harmony), and the crowd reaction.

I'll have to get these girls in gear.

We don't have time to just play around all day.

I stood up and tried to get everyone's attention by clearing my throat loudly.

They all dropped what they were doing - except Sara who was busy braiding pieces of brownies into Miranda's hair - and looked to me.

I smiled.

"Practice time. " I said and waved the song lyrics in front of their faces before handing them to them.

Camille looked down at the sheet of paper and let out a small squeak.

"Yes! I've wanted to do this song for forever! Ooh, Madam President can me and Camilla do a lead part? " Camille said cheerily.

I sat down on the couch and nodded and she squealed again.

"Alright, everyone! Postions! " Haley said, helping me get everyone in place.

I'm gonna sit out this practice and Cassie is too. I just want to see how the others are doing and Cassie wants to finish that song she working on.

I took out my iPod and hooked it up to Miranda's boombox then pushed play.

Everyone : I don't look for trouble,
But trouble looks for me.
And it's been waiting around corners,
Since I was seventeen.
They say "Here comes a hurricane,
Trouble is her middle name!"
But I don't look for trouble,
Yeah trouble looks for me.
Hey hey!

Miranda : I just want to live a quiet life,
I'll make an excellent wife,
Man I swear I really try.
But some boys they just can't eat it whole,
Trouble is my name you know.
(Trouble is my name you know.)

Everyone : I don't look for trouble,
But trouble looks for me,
And it's been waiting around corners,
Since I was seventeen.
They say "Here comes a hurricane,
Trouble is her middle name!"
But I don't look for trouble,
Yeah trouble looks for me.
Hey hey!

Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!

Camille And Camilla : I don't look for trouble,
But trouble looks for me,
And it's been waiting around corners,
Since I was seventeen.
They say that you,
Got so many sides.
I'm a Gemini,
But I don't look for trouble,
Trouble looks for me.

Sara: Lights up, let's have a toke.
Pour more whiskey in my Coke.
Never been one of the herd,
Flipping everyone the bird.

Haley : People say that I am heartless,
I've just learned to use my heart less.
I go hard 'cause I'm the hardest,
And we ain't even started yet!

Everyone : Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!
Trouble!

Everyone : I don't look for trouble,
But trouble looks for me,
And it's been waiting around corners,
Since I was seventeen.
They say "Here comes a hurricane,
Trouble is her middle name!"
But I don't look for trouble,
Yeah trouble looks for me.
Hey hey!

Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey hey!

Trouble!

I clapped my hands and they all bowed.

"You were great except... for at the beginning, Miranda. You mispronounced the words a couple of times. Look over the lyrics a bit more and work on it, okay? " I said.

She gave me a thumbs up then picked up Sara and gave her a piggy back ride over to their table they were sitting at.

That really was a great practice.

My teammates are getting better.

But will the be the best in time?

Then I heard a loud bang at the door.

Huh?

The door flew open and a blonde headed guy entered the room looking all high and mighty.

He walked all the way over to me on the couch and extended his hand towards my face.

"Hello, my radiant cherry blossom. May I ask your name? " he said.

Creeper alert! Creeper alert!

I quickly fished out the mace from my purse and sprayed him with it, point blank in the face.

"Ahhhhh! " he screamed and more guys entered the room.

What is going on here?

"Girls, get behind me!" I said and they all lined up in the back of the room.

I pointed my mace towards the group of - I admit, pretty good looking - guys.

"Don't move! I have mace and I know how to use it!" I said.

Then I spotted Haruhi amongst the group of guys and lowered the mace.

"Haruhi-kun?" I said.

"Really sorry... I couldn't stop them." he said.

I smiled.

"Okay, I won't injure any of you right now but if someone besides Haruhi doesn't start talking soon... "

I pointed to Sara.

"I'll let you and her get to know each other some more. " I said.

They all backed away slowly which confirmed my suspicions that this group knows more about us than they were originally going to let on. They know about Sara's violent tendencies.

"So... Explanations?" I said and waved the mace around.

"Umm... " Both of the twins said.

"Kyoya-kun said your group is going to destroy our school!" a short blonde with a stuffed bunny in his hand said.

Destroy their school?

Oh, our reputation. It strikes again.

"Why would we do that? " I said.

"Well... " the cute little blonde said.

"Because Alex Roze, defacto leader of this group burned down her last school. " a black haired guy with glasses said.

Oh shit.
