"SHALOM, BLOGOSPHERE." JBI SHOUTED INTO HIS MIC. The cameraman tilted down from the banner hung above to show the boy pushing a few people out of the way as he spoke. "Jacob Ben Israel here at McKinley High. Sudden death. Big stakes. Senior year. Who will succeed and who. Will. Fail?"

Willow stood at Finn's locker by his side as the cameraman raced to his spot in front of her, angled to JBI.

"Finn Hudson: Mediocre quarterback, mediocre Glee Club lead." he announced. He faced the boy and looked up at him. "What do you want to be when you grow up?" he asked shoving the mic in front of his face.

"Me? Uh..." He was frozen for a second and looked at Willow. "Yeah, i have plans. Um.."

Willow giggled to herself for a second before seeing the microphone go to her. "What?"

"What about you?" the boy asked.

"I'm a junior.." she said plainly.

"Well the world wants to know about you too, hot stuff," the boy said boldly. "Twitter says you're officially dating Sam Evans, a.k.a. Trouty Mouth, a.k.a. Hobo McBieber."

The mic went back to her for an answer. Rolling her eyes she let out a sigh. "We were dating. Before he had to move with his family out of state for his dads job," she reluctantly answered. "But it doesn't matter. This year is about me. Not anyone else. Me." she said and flashed a toothy smile to the camera.

Finn smiled down at the girl and nodded. "I'm really excited about this year." he said. It was an awkward moment for a second before JBI and his cameraman went on to talk to other people.

Willow walked with Finn and let out a groan. "I hate that people keep bringing Sam up. It's like.. i just got to a decent place of not missing him and now i wonder if he misses me, you know?" she rambled on.

Looking up, she saw a blank stare on her friend's face. She wanted to snap him out of his daze but someone beat him to it. "Hey!" a guy shouted.

It caught both of their attention and without warning, they were slushed in the face by the hockey team multiple times. With their eyes closed they heard the captain of the Hockey team yell, "Taste the rainbow, Gleeyotch!" proudly while skipping away.

Wiping ice from her eyes, she looked up at Finn who did the same. "I don't miss this.." she said before walking to the girls bathroom.

...

By the next day, the group had all made it to the choir room in the morning and noticed all their trophies in the middle of the room.

"Mr. Schue, why are all of our trophies in the middle of the room?" Tina asked.

"I was sure our nationals trophy would grow during the summer." Brittany mentioned.

"I want this image burned into your mind," the man told. "This is what the difference between first and 12th place looks like." he said picking up the small trophy. "It's also what it feels like."

"Are you planning on bumming us out all year long?" Puck asked sitting in the seat in front of Willow.

"No. I'm planning on pushing you harder than you've ever been pushed." the man said. Willow along with Santana made a questionable face to the choice of words. "We made it to nationals last year. This year, i'm not gonna let anything or anyone stop us from winning it all. I let you down last year. I lost focus, let some Broadway pipe dream get in the way."
