it's been four years since anyone you know has been at the next step studios. what happened? lives changed, people moved on. what's happening? well, the next step is about to get hit with its' first splash of drama in four years. || james/riley, mic...
Hey guys! Here's the first official chapter or, 'episode'. The only people who are in this episode that were in any episodes on The Next Step are Noah and Richelle. But don't worry, Michelle, Eldon, Riley, James, West and Emily will all be in probably episode eleven or something. I just need to get the storylines of these characters started first and then we'll reveal the big bombshell that we're both really excited about. Enjoy!

As Miss Kate walked into The Next Step studios, she smiled sadly. According to the landlord, if the studio didn't win Regionals this year, they would have to give the studio space to someone else. She wanted, more than anything, to have the team she had oh so many years ago. If Elite didn't scheme that plan, they could have won Nationals.
Kate sighed, she couldn't focus on the past, she had to focus on the future. She had some amazing dancers that were in A Troupe last year. She just hoped that they would come back to audition this year.
What this team really needed was a dancer with wow factor, like what Michelle had, but she doubted that someone like that would want to try out for a team that hadn't competed at Regionals in years.
She smiled at the dancers who walked in, some of them saying hi.
This wasn't the only auditions she would be holding today. A couple of years ago, the people who were in charge of Regionals, Nationals and Internationals decided that they would have a junior version of all three competitions, so every studio was told to have a Junior A Troupe, which meant that she would be holding auditions for that as well.
She sighed again, thinking about how she really needed to hire a head choreographer to help her out around the studio, since Pheobe left after they failed to compete Regionals for the third time.
"Miss Kate!" Kate turned around to see April, the dance captain for the last two years walking up to her, a blinding smile on her face.
"Hi, April, I'm glad you came to auditions." April looked offended, but quickly recomposed herself.
"Of course I'd come Miss Kate, The Next Step is my home, I wouldn't audition for another studio when I could easily get The Next Step to win Regionals this year." Miss Kate raised an eyebrow at April's statement, slightly surprised.
"Oh, really?" April nodded, so Kate continued talking, "Would you be able to get both A Troupe and Junior A Troupe to win Regionals?"
"Um, well, I'm not in Junior A Troupe, obviously, but maybe this year I could help you find the perfect dance captain for it." Kate nodded, considering it.
"I'll think about it. Now, how about you go and warm up for auditions?" April nodded and walked off.
Kate didn't know why, but she had a feeling that this year, their luck would change.
.....
"Alright everyone, welcome to auditions for A Troupe!" As everyone clapped, Kate looked around, glad to see some new faces auditioning, but also glad to see some of her A Troupe members from last year still here.
