 Let's go to the part, shall we?

Your Point of View:

   Believe me when I say I looked awful. So much thinking took over, to the point where I couldn't sleep. I had lost focus, all because I was supposedly "love-struck". I was a walking zombie... there were bags under my eyes, and I looked tired. I walked funny, and I just felt distracted. Cadenza couldn't have made me feel more lost... really. I excused myself to the bathroom, and went into one of the stalls. I didn't actually have to go... I was just in need of a break. I sat down, and tapped my feet. I didn't want to go back. I might as well take the next 2 minutes to... take a breather. 
   "I think she's in here, Sasha." a familiar voice snickered.
   "Well, what do you know, she is!" I got up, and they opened the door.
   "How did you...?"
   "No explanation. You're coming with us."
   "No!" they grabbed me, and I squirmed. I was... tired. I fought Polly off, but Sasha was digging her nails into my arm, making me wince. 
   "Quit moving and I'll stop." I stopped, and they grabbed me, walking over to a janitor's closet. 
   "What... NO!" I screeched, trying to push them off. "Someone... MPH!" My mouth was covered by Polly's hand.

Garroth's Point of View:

   Something was off. I stood up, and walked up to Ms. Collins.
   "Can I use the restroom, please?"
   "Yeah." I walked out, and went to the bathroom. 
   "(F/N)?" I asked. No reply. She wasn't here. It wouldn't take her 5 minutes to use the restroom. I walked out, before I heard a, 
  "Someone... MPH!" someone's mouth was covered. I knew that voice. (F/N). They took her when she was tired! Where did she go? I looked around, before seeing a familiar head of blonde hair with pink tips. Polly. Polly and Sasha had (F/N) in front of the Janitor's Closet?
   "HEY!" I yelled. Sasha's head shot up, and she threw (F/N) in the closet. She locked the door with a key, and the girls dashed off. "COME BACK!" I ran after them, and skipped the door. I needed to get that key, and soon. I got angry, and before I knew it, I was running faster. I could feel an adrenaline run through me. I needed to get that key! I caught up to Sasha, and grabbed her arm. The key flew out of her hand, and she stumbled back. I swooped down, picked up the key, and ran off.
   "HEY!" she yelled. She chased after me, and I dashed faster. I went back to the closet, and unlocked the door. I picked up (F/N), and closed the door. "GIVE ME THAT KEY AND (F/N)!" she hissed.
   "NO!" I yelled, running. I had (F/N) in my grasp, and the key was making my hand sweat. I ran to the office, and panted.
   "What... my goodness." one of the volunteers gasped, "What happened?" I explained, and gave her the key. I carried (F/N) into the nurse's office. I laid her down on one of the beds, and Dr. Doctor came in.
   "Well, what a story. I heard from the other room. So, this is (F/N)?"
   "Yeah."
   "Good thing you found her, boy. Not only is she knocked out, but she could've have gotten hurt. Sounds like she was bullied. I think she just needs some rest is all. Do you want to stay with her?"
   "I don't know... I just want to make sure she's not hurt. I'm going to go back to class, but please let me know when she's awake."
   "Sounds like a plan." I nodded, leaving. Did that really happen in only 4 minutes? OK then... I walked back to class, and opened the door. I sat down, and Ms. Collins was on the classroom phone. She nodded, before hanging up. 
   "Alright class, now onto the 5th song..." I sighed, opening my book. 

~~Time Skip~~
Your Point of View:

   "Ow..." I groaned, sitting up. "Where... where am I? The Nurse's office?"
   "Oh! You're awake! Fortunately, you were only out for about an hour."
   "W-Who's..."
   "I'm Dr. Doctor. A pleasure to meet you! A guy friend brought you here!"
   "What..."
   "He had blonde hair and blue eyes."
   "Garroth?"
   "I assume you know him! He said when you woke up to give him a heads up! I'll get him right now! It's 8 period right now... oh. He has a Free Period. I mean, it just started...
   "Hello?" Garroth stood at the doorway. 
   "Well, didn't you come on cue? Your friend just woke up! Well, I'll give you an ice-pack for now, but I think you just hit your head! Goodbye!" he left, and I tilted my head in confusion. 
   "Hey there." Garroth chuckled, "How are you feeling?"
   "My head hurts, but I'm OK."
   "Do you remember anything?"
   "Sasha... and Polly... they took me while I was going towards the restroom. Then, they threw me in a closet. All I remember is landing near something, before... before getting knocked out." I sighed.
   "Here's an ice pack!" Dr. Doctor gave it to Garroth, and exited the office.
   "Heh, well I obviously don't need it. Here." he handed it to me, and I thanked him. "So, they basically took you?"
   "Yeah... but I don't know. As soon as I was thrown into that room, I was knocked out in an instant. You would think I'd be awake... right?"
   "Yeah, it's weird. Do you think they have... magicks?"
   "I mean, I don't know. I think at least one of them does. All I know is that my head hurts."
   "Alright, well... it's Friday... but..."
   "Hello students!" we heard the announcements. "It's your Principal speaking. We've calculated the student votes, and the judges for the Battle of the Bands competition have cast their votes. So, I will be announcing our 3 bands going to the competition! Our first band is My Mod Mod World!" the staff clapped, and she continued. My hands were getting sweaty. "Our second band is The Shadow Knights!" Garroth looked at me, and took my hand. I squeezed it, and closed my eyes. Please, please, PLEASE! We deserved this! "And our 3rd band... is The Phoenix Drop!" I opened my eyes, and Garroth laughed. I squealed, and we hugged. I squeezed him, tears of happiness pouring. He laughed, and rubbed my back. "We would like all students in these bands to come down. Thank you, and have a great day." Garroth and I walked out of the nurse's office, and I could instantly see Laurence, Cadenza and Dante running down. Garroth and I ran up to them, and we all hugged. Cadenza and I were crying, and the guys were jumping around. 
   "AH!" Cadenza squealed, "WE DID IT!"
   "WE MADE IT!" Dante laughed. 
   "Congrats you guys!" Ms. Aphmau smiled, "Alright, I have contacted your parents, and they all allowed you to ride one of the band vans we plan on renting. So, for the time before, all of you have a chance to decorate your van. The thing is, it must be temporary. So, you can get like, a tour bus kind of vibe, you know?"
   "YAY!" Cadenza squealed, jumping around.
   "Alright! I'm going to leave you to it. By the way, I think they're here!" we heard a honk outside, and the bands ran out. Hayden was in ours, laughing.
   "DAD!" Laurence ran up to the van, "THIS IS AMAZING!"
   "And I have a great idea for the exterior. You all can do the interior. Look at what I found." he pulled out our Art Project, the sign... "Did you all make this?"
   "Yeah, that's our Art Project!" I replied.
   "I think it's the perfect design, to go below your head-shots. So, I'm going to take you to a photo-shoot.
   "No way, SERIOUSLY?" Garroth gasped.
   "Heck yeah! By the way, you guys won 1st in the judge's favor, so I got to examine the vans first. I picked the best interior... none of the seats are ripped, and it's really roomy. Check it." we walked inside, and we all smiled. The seats were red, and the walls were black. There were 3 seats on one side, and 2 on the other. There was a trunk, and a pop-out table. There was also storage below the seats for snacks.
   "This is amazing! You picked well, Hayden!" Dante exclaimed.
   "I always do! The bell rang, and he climbed into the van, "Now come on! Let's go to the photo-shoot!"
   "Now?" Cadenza gasped, "But I'm a wreck!"
   "Sweetie, it's a photo-shoot. They're supposed to dress you up and do your makeup and hair." Hayden rolled his eyes.
   "Oh... yeah." she giggled, "My bad!" we all got into the van, and Cadenza and I sat next to each other, while the guys sat on the other side.
   "So, how do you think this will turn out?" Dante asked us.
   "Hopefully awesome." I replied, "I think it will!"
   "You bet it will!" Hayden laughed, "We're here! Alright, so each of you are going into a different room. Then, all of you will take separate photos, before taking some together. So, they're going to change you out of your uniforms, into something more to your liking. Alright, let's go!" we walked in, and a woman instantly took me to a room labeled, "(F/N)". I was taken inside of the room, and I looked around. This was really nice. It had a vanity, and a rack of clothing, as well as a TON of makeup and hair stuff. She sat me, and smiled,
   "Hello... I'm HEY! I know you!" EMILY?
   "Hi Emily!" I exclaimed, "What are you doing here?"
   "I may or may not work in one or more salons... but HEY! I get to help with your photo-shoot! And hey! Your hair still looks fabulous!" she clapped her hands, "But, I'm not make you look like Barbie. I think I'm just going to uplift your natural self, and bring out those features that make you, you."
   "Awesome." I sighed. "Thank goodness. I hate fakes." she chuckled at that.
   "Alright, your favorite color is (F/C), right?"
   "Yeah."
   "Alright, so, you're gonna have to wear a dress, but I have a great idea." she handed me a dress. It was mainly black, but it also had (F/C) detailing. "Try that on for size." I did so, and she helped me zip it up. It was really pretty. I looked at the mirror. The neck was high enough to cover, but low to the point where I still had a neck. The skirt flowed out, making it a bit more girly, but the (F/C) addition of stitching and the thin line at my waist made it even better. 
   "Alright, and your mom wanted you to wear this. She even came to drop it off." she puled out my necklace. It was silver, and had my first initial. It also had a (F/C) gemstone. I nodded, and she put it on. It really added onto the look. Then she took my hair, left it down, and made slightly wavy(unless your hair is curly, then I guess it's natural XD). Then, she put on some light makeup... although it seemed a bit heavy. Maybe because I wasn't use to wearing makeup. "Take a look, (F/N)." I turned around, and smiled. My face was covered with makeup, but it wasn't a lot, to my surprise. It covered my imperfections, and she highlighted and darkened parts, bringing out areas of my face that looked appealing. My eyes had a touch of eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara. My lips were coated with a tinted balm, and then clear gloss finished the job. She put on a sliver bracelet, and I wore a pair of black wedged ankle-length boots. I looked amazing, to say the least.
   "I love it so much!" I clapped my hands, "I actually look like a girly-girl! This is lovely! Thank you so much, Emily!" I hugged her, and she smiled, 
   "Of course." we heard a knock on the door, and she answered it.
   "We're ready for (F/N)." Hayden smiled.
   "OK! Go out there, and have fun (F/N)!" she waved bye, as I walked out.
   "Look at you. You look stunning."
   "Thank you Hayden."
   "They'll love it. Alright, they'll just ask you to do some poses, I guess. I don't too much about this stuff." I laughed, 
   "That's fine. Thanks for doing this Hayden. This has been so cool!"
   "Hey, you all deserve it. It's the least I can do. Plus, they'll look amazing on the van, believe me. Now, stand on that platform."
   "OK."
   "Hey (F/N)!" a photographer smiled, "Alright, we're going to have you do a couple poses, and then a couple things with your face and emotion, OK?"
   "Alright." I answered.
   "Start with a hand on your hip, turn to the right, and tilt your head back." Oh dear... this was gonna take a while, wasn't it?

   HELLO!!!! :D So, I kind of want to apologize. This chapter wasn't the best... :( I wanted it to turn out a bit better, but I mean, I don't know how else to execute it. Oh well, at least I updated, right? So, yay! You made it in Battle of the Bands(which probably happens the chapter after the next). IDK but yay! You guys did it! Also, I'm really glad a lot of you liked the moment with Dante. I thought that was badly executed as well :P But that's just me being me, cause I'm like so weird XD But yeah! You're in a photo-shoot, and you have a band van! So cool! And Hayden's like, boss XD I swear, he's like that one really cool dad you see once in a lifetime, but like you know him, so yeah. Oh well, I think my dad's pretty cool, if not, the coolest dad(cause he's my dad, :P!) But yeah! I hope you all enjoyed this part, and I'll see you in the next one! Buh-bye! ~Morgan :D
