Man this was some new shit. We had all came out to the battles. When you're not in music, you never really get to see how dope this shit is for real.                       
"Hold on, because I see you thought you was hehe funny. But you the only dumbie up here not getting no money. You up here howling, but I couldn't hear anything over your stomach growling. You trying to win the race, but you showed up late. You thought you ate that, huh? But again with an empty plate. You should be used it by now, but you're taking notes like a journalist. Let me offer some assistance, I was raised to help the less fortunate." Keyz said in her battle and we all were stunned.                   "Damn...that's his lil sis's bars, I know he got flame then." Suki said.                        
"Facts! She just ripped dude." I said as the 4 of us walked over to where Dom was about to start up another battle.     
"Alright alright. Round 2. You both have 45 seconds  to show us who got this flow thing on lock. So Riek...Magnum step up. They both stepped up. You won on the virtual battle, so you get to choose, heads or tails." she said looking at Riek.
"Tails." he said as they did the coin flip. 
"Tails it is." she confirmed.                         
"Ladies first." Riek said smiling at Magnum as she backed away and the beat started.                       "Yall got me up here battling the hip hop Hendrix. Well excuse me, Jimi might be a stretch, more like Hip Hop Prince. You the type of nigga to fill out the app and show up to the interview in chaps..." Mag started in on Riek who kept this smile plastered on his face the whole time. Not gonna lie, dude kept making accusations about bruh, I feel like Riek probably about to body him.                    
"Okay okay you did your 4-5. We felt that Mag, what you got Riek?" Dom said as she backed up again.                                 
"You had a lot to say about the way I dress, why you threatened by me? Calling me the Hip Hop Prince, bet that means I could pull your girl, your sister, and your mommy.  Disrespect a legend, I know you didn't think that was wise. Baby boy you about 20 years old, you trying to meet your demise? It's Jimi and Prince stans that would body you for less. Talking about me, but your threads don't line up with the best. Take a look my guy, what the fuck are those?? The last time them looked like fresh ones, Jordan was still in the pros..." Riek was a funny dude to say the least. The eruption of laughter and claps let us know Riek took that one for real.               
"Well Magnum, you did your thing, but it sounds like Riek just took that one." D announced as everyone clapped and we moved to the next area where it looks like it was 2 on 2 battles about to start.
"We got something spicy for yall tonight. We gone get this 2 on 2 going. So first up we got Sleaze and Spin against Onyx and Diamond." Kev announced as they all stepped up. "So Spin, you won the virtual battle, so heads or tails?"                 "Heads." she said as Kev did the coin toss and we all awaited the answer.         
"Head it is." Kev said to her.                          "Rookies can go first." Sleaze said and Onyx and D just smiled at each other as they stepped up to the plate.                     
"The nerve of her Diamond, she referred to us as rookies..." Onyx began.                   
"The lack of education is obvious, we know who played hookie." D added.       
"That's what I thought, I don't even see how they out here. I mean were they allowed?" Onyx kept going.                       
"Doesn't matter because they're gonna walk out the same way they did when the teacher asked them to read out loud." D finished.                             "Damn...that was a good one." Toya said while the crowd went to laughing.            
"Okay okay, we see who chose violence tonight." Kev said as their time ended and he lined it up for Sleaze and Spin to come back with theirs.         "I see you got jokes, a pair of regular comedians." Spin started off.                     
"But when it comes to actual pressure, baby yall only hit the median." Sleaze said.                               "Because when it comes to feeling threatened, you're only a fraction." Spin went on.                        "Because the only reason yall here is because of affirmative action." Sleaze said. That line there didn't go over well with the crowd at all. I knew this was about to go sideways.                                      "I thought it would've been wise for you to stay a little more conservative." Onyx started off.               "Making statements to get some laughs, but can't even spell affirmative." D said.
"Making statements and insults, because that's how you try hardest."       
"Onyx, you know we're the threats though boo, because we're always the target."                              "Sad case though because I expected more from a broad named Spin."           
"Not me, her partner's name is Sleaze, you already battling within."                    
"Right right. So is Sleaze spinning or is Spin the sleaze?"                                            
"That went over their heads boo, both still over there catching Z's."                    
"You're right, because they finna get bodied and didn't even know it."             
"And they think the minority part was the diss, but they got knocked out by 'the white girl' and 'the mixed poet'." D finished and we all clapped for them.   
"Not my call, but it looks like the fans have spoken. Onyx and Diamond advance to next round." Kev said as they all shook hands and walked off the stage.                                                      "I give them props, I wouldn't be able to get it just right off the top of my head." Suki said to us.   "I agree. I thought witnessing the studio was one thing, but the freestyles are actually more amazing." Toya said.           
"Yeah, they actually worked that good together though. I don't know how that catching the other one's flow thing really works, but they did that." Jay said.                                                                       "Yeah that was what got me too. Because you really gotta close on what someone else started. That's wild." I said as Charles walked over to us.    "What yall think so far?" he asked us.
