   And... now the moment some of you have been waiting for... Battle of the Band (Auditions). Although, I decided to add a bit of the twist to this audition... so let's see if you can find it! ALSO, 2 PARTS IN ONE DAY? I guess you could call this a celebration for 900 Music Notes, and an early Christmas present! Thank you all so much for clicking that follow button, it really does mean a lot! Let's go to the part, shall we?

Your Point of View:

   Boy, did anxiety hit me like a weather storm. My foot was tapping the floor at record speed, and my legs were shaking. It was the day of auditions for Battle of the Bands, and I was freaking out. Garroth was in the bathroom... he wasn't speaking. Laurence and Dante were sweating from nervousness, and Cadenza... she seemed fine... but Laurence told me this morning she was mentally going insane. We were in 6th Period, and all of us were lip-syncing at this point. Garroth came back, and sat down. The bell of announcements rang, and my throat ran dry.
   "Attention all students auditioning for Battle of the Bands, we would like all of you to meet in the gym. Thank you." We all got up, and walked out. 
   "Is everyone ready?" Dante asked us, looking ahead.
   "I guess." Laurence answered, "I don't know about you guys, but I'm nervous."
   "I'm nervous too." Cadenza shuddered, sighing, "We all know the song, right?" I looked back at Garroth, and he was looking down. I pulled him aside, and gave Cadenza a hand-motion. She nodded, and walked with the others. 
   "Garroth, you haven't spoken all day." I looked at him concerned. He looked extremely pale, and was shaking when I touched him. "Are you OK?"
   "I-I... I can't sing." his voice croaked. I gasped, and he sighed.
   "What? Oh no! How?"
   "I don't know..." he whispered. He lost his voice!
   "Garroth! Why didn't you say anything earlier?"
   "Because... it s-started at lunch. It was fine this morning."
   "What... what did you have for lunch?"
   "What I normally have. Wait a minute... Zane made my lunch."
   "WHAT? What did he put in it?"
   "I don't know! But, he must've put something in my lunch." he coughed, and I sighed,
   "So it was sibling sabotage."
   "Yep."
   "Are you sure?"
   "P-Positive." he whispered. 
   "OK, we'll figure something out. Come on, we'll be late." he nodded, and we walked into the gym. I couldn't help but feel terrible. As we walked in, Zane and his band looked at us, before Zane chuckled. I shot him a look, before meeting up with Dante, Laurence and Cadenza. 
   "Guys... we have a problem." I sighed.
   "Huh? What is it?" Laurence asked me, looking very concerned.
   "Garroth... he lost his voice due to sabotage by Zane."
   "WHAT?" Dante stood up, "But, he has to sing!"
   "I can't..." Garroth's voice came out as a hoarse whisper.
   "Oh my goodness." Cadenza's eyes widened, "That sounds awful! Oh no! What are we going to do?" we all thought, before I gasped, standing up.
   "LAURENCE!" I jumped. Everyone looked up.
   "What?" he stood up as well.
   "Do you know the part?"
   "WHAT?"
   "Do you know the part Garroth's supposed to sing?"
   "Well yeah, but I mean, I can't sing it as well..."
   "You can sing, Laurence." Garroth whispered. "You did it twice..."
   "I mean, I don't want to do that to you, Garroth."
   "Do it. I don't care."
   "Really?"
   "Really."
   "I know the part."
   "Will you do it, Laurence?" Dante stood up.
   "We're counting on you, Loogy." Cadenza chuckled.
   "Fine, OK. I'll do it." he smiled.
   "Thank Irene!" I hugged everyone, "We're sure to get in! We just have to keep our spirits up, right? We can do that!"
   "Yeah." Garroth whispered.
   "Definitely." Dante smiled, "I think we can pull it off. We're here for a reason, and we're all in a band for a reason. I think if we try our hardest... we can make it."
   "Attention students." the announcements came on, "Please make your way to the cafeteria stage. There are chairs set up to sit in. All students not participating in Battle of the Bands audition, report to the cafeteria stage." Was there an audience?
   "People are going to watch us?!" Cadenza gulped, "Oh dear."
   "Hey! We'll be OK!" I tried calming everyone down, "It's just our classmates. Plus, we're really good. We'll be sure to win them over like that!"
   "(F/N)'s right. We've been practicing for so long, this song is locked in our heads." Laurence replied. "I say we go out there on that stage, and do our very best."
   "Yeah!" Dante shouted. We all laughed, and then everyone went behind stage into the drama room. 
   "OK kids!" Ms. Musa smiled, "Here are your orders... first up is My Mod Mod World, next is Fire Fists, then it's Fly By 5, then The Phoenix Drop, and last will be the Shadow Knights! So, I want the first band to come set up with me, then I will be announcing each band. The judges are Mr. Sparklez, Ms. Collins, and Ms. Aphmau. Good luck, and use our time to practice, review, or just relax! See you all later!" The gang and I sat down, and we just kind of took 2 minutes to relax. Then, we could hear the first announcement.
   "Hello everyone! I am Ms. Musa, and I am the Band teacher! So, welcome to the Academy's Battle of the Bands auditions! You all are here to be our audience, and to help us judge, which 3 bands should be taken to the competition! So, your teachers will be handing out little sheets of paper, which you can write your Top 3 bands. Your votes are going to contributed into the judging process, so be sure to pick your absolute favorites! So, who's ready to rock?" everyone cheered, and then stopped. "Very well then! I am proud to introduce our first band up, My Mod Mod World!" everyone cheered, and I could feel my stomach drop. I was shaking even more than before. Time flew as each band disappeared from the drama room. Then, it our turn. I grabbed my water, and everyone stood up. I took a sip, and we walked on stage. We moved the instruments around, and adjusted the mics. Cadenza and Laurence tuned their instruments, and then we heard the next announcement,
   "Alright! What a great group! Next, is a group who all just met this year and in my opinion, are so inseparable! It's my honor to introduce the next band, The Phoenix Drop!" everyone cheered, and the curtain unfolded. I smiled, then looked at everyone. They all gave me confident looks, and I smiled. We were so going to do this.
