Surprise Promotion

Bang's Pov

September 30th, the final day of the month when we met up for a quick practice out of the blue. We were suddenly told the day before to get to the WBOT headquarters for a surprise for some reason. We were all talking to each other curious about it only to be met with a camera crew.

"Guess what!" The head of the orphanage said, "People have been curious about the pageant and wanted some words on it, including...a news anchor!"

"Wow! It's WBOT! In the flesh!" Becca said, happy. "it's like I'm in the center of the world!" She beamed. 

"They wanted some words about the pageant from the contestants," He explained. "So boys, if you don't mind.." 

"Get out of the way? Wait outside and watch it live?" Blake said chill. "No problem." He smiled.

"Have fun girls!" Bentley said.

"You got this dudes!" I smiled at them. 

"Thanks!" Bay smiled at me.

I have her and the rest of them a thumbs up. 

I like to believe that the universe provides, and it certainly did with them, and now, it was time to let them enjoy what the universe provided to them, I know they'll enjoy the spotlight!

Bo's Pov

The six of us sat down on the couch and sat still smiling while Bot Botson happily talked to us.

"Welcome everybody! I'm here with the six brave girls who decided to participate in the pageant this year! What inspired you all to do it? Wat's keeping you going?" 

Beep spoke up first. "The children of course! I love kids, and I wanted a chance to help them out."

"I was a orphan myself, so when I heard that this was an for an orphanage, I was practically sold." Bao explained.

"I heard that you are also a cop, is that right? How is going balancing all that?"

"Surprisingly well! I did have to make a few sacrifices bt everybody in the force understands! One of them even said that they'd buy some tickets to see me!"

"And how does that make you feel?" He asked.

"Great! I'm happy that so many people are buy my side.

"Aww!" I smiled at Bao giving her a hug in support. 

"Are all of you staying in it for the same reasons?" Botson asked.

"You bet!" Becca and Bri said.

"I'm just loving being in the spotlight!" Becca explained. "It really feels like I'm doing good, while looking good which is everything I ever wanted."

"Are your parents proud of you?" Botson smiled.

"Oh, very!" She smiled. I haven't talked to them recently, but they support my dream."

The team and I always had some crazy theories on just where in the world Becca's parents are, but we decided to put a cap in that for now. 

"What about you Brianna, do your parents support you?"

Brianna rubbed the back of her head and smiled saying "Yeah! I can't wait to sing in front of everyone! I hope they like my voice."

(The team and I could write a book on our questions about Bri)

"Can you give us a preview?" Botson smiled.

"Sorry, I don't want to strain my voice." Brianna smiled.

"Fair enough." Botson smiled. "How about you? Bo? We haven't asked you anything.

"Oh! I'm loving everything too! I kind of just want to fast forward to the pageant day! I'm kinda getting sick of painting the same things, but I really don't mind! More time to practice my unicorn drawings!"

"What's your favorite type of unicorn?"

"Rainbow Unicorns!" I said perky!

"Great choice!" Botson smiled. "I'm a little partial to a pink unicorn myself! How about you Bay? You've been pretty quiet this whole time."

"Well, there's nothing really much for me to say being honest," Bay said looking down. "I hope that people love the sound of the violin as much as I do. As long as people like that, I'll be just fine!"

"What type of song do you think you'll be playing?"

Baylin smiled coy. "An calm song, it will be very elegant!"

"What's it called?"

"That's for you to find out!" She winked.

The five of us all looked at each other, admiring her polite invasiveness. I think Bot Botson got with the program as he asked us all a closing question.

"To conclude the interview, why do each of you want all the viewers to come to the pageant?"

I smiled and went first.

"I want you all to come because we're all doing our very best to make it something worth arriving too, there will be jokes, art, showcases, and music, lots of music!" 

"I hope you all come because I really want you all to hear my violin playing. I know it's worth your time!" Answered Baylin.

Brianna clasped her hands "I wish everybody would come because I really want as many people to hear my voice live! The screen is great but it can only do so much to perfectly replicate a voice, you know?" 

"Same reason with Bri, I'm working really hard on my act." Bao smiled. 

"I want everyone to come because I want to see everybody's reaction to my guitar playing!"

"And I want everyone to come because I want to see you're live reactions to my jokes!" Becca smiled.

Bot Botson smiled at us and looked at the camera. "Well you heard the ladies! So book your tickets now! Thank you for watching everyone!"

 We heard some applause and we were safe to leave the room to the boys loving praise.

"You all did amazing!" Bing said. 

"Yeah dudes! It was super professional how you evaded the question so professionally!" Bang said.

"Yeah!" Seriously! Kudos!" Blake said patting her back.

Baylin blushed rose pink. "Aw shucks you guys! Thank you! And great work promoting Bo! I would want to come myself and I'm going to be in it!"

I bowed, "Thank you! It was nothing!"

"This is going to be the best pageant ever! Becca smiled."

"Yeah, best." Baylin said kindly. 

"Let's team up gang!" Beep said as she extended her hand, "From here and now on, we're not going to give up the pageant!"

"Yeah man!" Bang said. 

"Woohoo! Bing said.

"I'm with you!" Bentley smiled.

Everyone else put their hands together, except for Bay, she put her hand in the center last and hesitated to do so. As we were leaving and going home, I quickyl talked to her.

"Hey Bay, there's no need feeling bad about the question thing. Plenty of people have done tat before and you're not the first one."

Baylin smiled. "It's not that exactly...but, thank you Bo! That means a lot! You're going to do amazing!"

"You too!" I nudged her.

Baylin smiled at me and gave me a hug. At that moment, she left with Bentley to go home. Seems like someone's got cold feet about the pageant and it isn't me.
