"Come, come, come, let us worship God."
Twins Elsa and Vlad love God and music. But before they are nineteen, they discover their father dead and their favorite godfather Titus saying that he hates them so much that he wants to kill them.
But instea...

"Elsa!"
I grabbed her before she collapsed, but she didn't move.
What's wrong? Vlad said in my mind.
Elsa, she won't move. If she can't sing, we won't be able to win, as we won't get enough points to even get close enough....
But wait a moment. Vlad, teach Anubis Alien Ant Farm's Smooth Criminal. And tell Reiji what has happened and ask him to use his magic, while not being plugged in of course. We're probably going to lose this round, But at least she'll be okay. Oh, and ask Neutron to bring in a chair.
Like I said, it was risky, and I didn't know how many points we'll lose. But... it'll be worse if we don't.
I grabbed the microphone and took a deep breath as I sang, "Annie, are you okay? You okay? You okay darling?"
I repeated it twice, then I sang, "Cause you've been hit by, " Vlad hit the bass twice. "You've been struck by, " Again as I picked up Elsa, princess style. "A smooth criminal."
Anubis played the guitar solo just as Neutron brought in a chair. I put Elsa in the chair and put my violin down next to me. I started to sing the rest of the song.
I knew that I was singing the words, I couldn't pay attention. I was worried about Elsa; I knew that the lyrics fit what was happening, but it more fit how I felt abut her. I didn't want her to be hurt. I didn't know whether I was pretending or actually telling how I felt.
As soon as I was near the end of the song, Vlad contacted me again. Reiji did the spell!
I could tell, as she was stirring. I wrapped up Smooth Criminal and picked up my violin and started playing the song we were originally going to start with. I believe it was called Rather Be by Clean Bandit.
Elsa grabbed the microphone from my hands and started to sing very beautifully. As she sang I thought that the sing she chose fit. After all, there's no place we'd rather be other than with our God.
Then Smooth Criminal would fit too. The Lord would ask us if we're okay always.
We started up the third song, one that wet switched parts singing. It was called Love me Again by John Newman.
I guess that the lyrics fit too. We were sinners, questioning if God loves us. But he'll always love us no matter what we do.
And we finished. The lights on us dimmed as the Androidz started to play. What happened, Elsa?
She moved closer to me. "The singer of the Androidz said he sabotaged us." She whispered. She looked upset.
I patted her head. It's okay. We've gotta win to get them back.
"Whatever is His plan." But I could tell she was happy. She squeezed my hand. "Thank you. I'm glad I could rely on you."
Rely on the Lord; he's the one who gave me the idea.
The lights came back on as the Androidz finished.
Ezekiel twirled her blond hair and her blue eyes were non blinking. "Come, excellent mix of songs, and very few mistakes on musical score. However, that first song wasn't on the list, and the pianist wasn't even plugged in until the end of the first song."
Wow, she could tell; she's good. She scribbled something on her magic screen. "As you are aware, there are four rounds of twenty-five points each. You, Come, score 18.5 out of 25."
Ouch. Knowing the Androidz, they'd be perfect since they're mostly not human.
She turned to the Androidz. "Androidz, excellent performance. However, I could hear repeated mistakes from your group; repeated, terrible mistakes. Your group scores 20/25."
The Androidz look angrily at their obviously human member, but I just sighed. We could make it; there is hope with this small difference.
