Lenny paced hastaly as her sister and brother went over their vocals just before their show starts, they were officially on tour and were about to do their first show of the predicament.

"Oh~ yeah! You are, my fire, my one, desire~" Ritz sang.

"Believe, when I say~" Orchid continued.

"I want it, that way!" They sang together.

"Okay! I'd say our vocals are perfect!" Orchid squealed to her younger brother.

"Oooh! I'm so EXCITED!!!" Ritz squeaked. "Our FIRST SHOW of the TOUR!"

"I KNOW!" Orchid did a little jump and pulled her brother into a hug.

"ACK! Don't squeez the life outta me! I still gotta perform!" Ritz laughed.

"Sorry!" Orchid giggled as she let him go.

"It's all good." Ritz assured her.

"Uh, Lenny, you okay?" Orchid questioned.

"NO!" Lenny exclaimed, her nurves were beginning to make her hipaventalate. "It's the first show of the tour! And I'm just so afraid we're gonna mess it up!"

"Hey, relax, just breath." Ritz says. "You have the pre-show jitters. It's normal. Just take a sec and breath. That's what I do."

"Sorry." Lenny stopped smoothing her hair and let her sweaty hands hang at her sides, taking a deep inhale and exhaling it as her nurves began to calm. "Thanks Ritz."

"No problamo sis." Her brother laughed.

Lenny smiled, feeling better.

"FIVE SECONDS TIL' SHOWTIME!" Someone yelled.

Lenny's nervousness returned and she shook her hands as they began to sweat once more.

"Hey, breath." Orchid murmured, taking Lenny's sweaty hand in hers. "If that doesn't help, then remember that you're with us, and that we're an unstoppable force not to be reckoned with."

"Right." Lenny said. "Right. Hey, aren't we singing 'Unstoppable' tonight?"

Orchid shrugged as a smirk crossed her face.

Lenny laughed, pulling her siblings into a hug. "I love you guys. Now come on, we have a performance!"

The three siblings strutted onto the stage, their confidence taking over as their first song began to play.

"Well there he goes!" They sang.

"On the floor, let's do this, no more talkin'!" Orchid took the lead, her stunning vocals enchanting the croud when she sang.

"Did anybody notice?" The group sang.

"The energy just shifted when we dropped in. Oooh, let it drop in!" Ritz sang, locking eyes with a small group of girls near the front, all of whom fainted.

Lenny then jumped in front of him. "I don't flex but I might!" She sang, smiling at the croud. "Grove about to take flight!"

"'Cause the night is young, and the music's on, and we got love on sight!" They sang as a group. "The, sky was the limit, now the, stars 'where we're livin', it's the, vibe when we're in it. It'll blow your mind! It's so: perfect, perfect, perfect! One hundred percent! Put us to get her you know what you'll get! It's so: perfect, perfect, perfect! Harmony's so cold! And, you'll never ever wanna let it goooooooooooooooo!"

But as they all sang, Ritz slipped on one of the flowers that were being thrown at them and fell onto Orchid, who fell onto Lenny. The three of them toppled over mid-song and landed on their stomaches. Lenny slowly lifted her head in embarrassment as the croud stared in shock, some booed them, others began to exit the stage room.

"Wait!" Lenny called as the number of trolls in front of her decreased. "The concert's not over yet!"

Orchid slowly stood up and walked towards her sister. "Hey, it's okay, there's always the next concert."

"'The next concert'?!" Lenny hissed, her cold tone making Orchid shiver. "'THE NEXT CONCERT'?!"

"Um, yes?" Orchid said meekly.

"Orchid there may not BE a 'next concert'!" Lenny turned on her sister, her pupals dilated as beeds of sweat dripped from her forehead.

"B-but, we're on tour!" Ritz said.

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Lenny suddenly shreaked at her brother. "If you hadn't slipped on that stupid plant we'd still be performing!"

"I-I'm sorry!" Ritz pleaded. "I didn't mean to!"

"'I didn't mean to!'" Lenny mocked, making her voice high and babyish. "IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY?!"

"I-" Ritz began.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU TWO!" Lenny screached. "Y'KNOW WHAT?! I'M DONE HERE! I'M LEAVING! I HOPE I NEVER SEE EITHER OF YOUR PATHETIC FACES AGAIN!"

"WAIT!" Orchid begged. "Lenny! Please! Don't go! What's gonna happen to me and Ritz?!"

"I don't give a fuck about what happens to you two!" Lenny's pissed voice rang from the window she'd opened. "I don't ever wanna see you again!"

"B-but-" Before Orchid could finish, Lenny jumped from the window and dissappeared into the night, leaving her siblings behind. Abandoned.

"Come on Orchid." Ritz's face was twisted in hurt, guilt, and anger as he helped his sobbing older sister to her feet. "I know someone who'll help us."





Well this was a heartbreaking thing to type. But I hope y'all are enjoying! <3
