The Next Step ~ Internationals 2 (Season 6)

We All Come together

Sophia POV
I'm so happy because internationals is finally beginning! After everything that's been going over the past few days with the guys going to the island and me flying to Romania. It's good to have some fun now.

Riley POV
We are all at the opening ceremony that comes before the Male Solo round and it's fantastic! It's really strange to be watching it this year rather than to a dancer on the stage.
I never wondered how it looked from the audiences perspective.

A troupe were due to have their run across the stage very soon, it felt great to finally be at internationals! They could here the crowd cheering and screaming as each dance team ran across the stage.

Chuck Anderson - SNR network
Welcome to the absolute internationals, I'm Chuck Anderson accompanied by my Lovely co host Ashley leggat! It's great to be back at the internationals don't you think?

Ashley Leggat - SNR Network
Yes quite! What a long year and I can't wait for the dancing to begin and it looks like our first studio is coming out now - this is
compagnia di danza italiana

Noah POV
The Italian troupe has just come out, some of the other teams I do recognise from internationals last year but this isn't the same Italian team that made it to the final four last year.

Español Escuela de baile

Emily POV
Now the Spanish team has just gone on and were up next! I can't believe I'm finally at internationals! This opening ceremony is just fantastic!

Please be up standing for our internationals champions - THE NEXT STEP!

Ashley leggat - SNR network
Here are our internationals winners and I'm excited to see what they bring to the table this year!

Chuck Anderson - SNR Network
As am I Ashley, as am I but its just coming through us now that a troupe from the next step actually lost a competition a few months back. Will that affect them in this. I don't know...

Amanda POV
I'm so happy to be getting out on stage this year! It's just amazing!

Piper POV
It's amazing, all the lights and sounds of the Audience; there's no sound like it!

Chuck Anderson - SNR network
Now here is a shock, Stockholm dance theatre faced the next step in the finals last year and then when onto loose in the tie breaker round. It looks like they are back to take the trophy home with them!

Ashley leggat - SNR network
Let's welcome Miss International Soloist and her team Summerford School of dance!

Miss Kate POV
We've just got into the wings and I can hear the Internationals hosts talking about Sommerford; that's Ella's team. I do hope we face her again, Just so we can show her the door...again.

Male Solo Round/Rehearsal rooms

Noah POV
I have come to the rehearsal room with Ollie to get some last minute practise for my Solo. I really hope that either Sophia or myself can win the five point advantage for my team.

Ollie POV
No one is eliminated in this round or the female Solo round which is good because I was an alternate at nationals this year and I would love to have a feel for the stage a bit more. But I do feel really kind of honoured in a way because of what happened at nationals. I had to take his spot for the male solo round and we almost lost the competition so it's nice to have him want me to help him if that makes sense.

"5,6,7,8 Good! Noah it's amazing! We are getting that 5 point advantage" Ollie complemented. "Thanks man, You know if I could have chosen a back up for the soloist, I would have chosen you" Noah smiled.

Ollie POV
Thanks Noah

Noah POV
I would have chosen Noah for a backup of the soloist because he has improved a lot from last time. He's going to make a great soloist some days.

"Ohh, I've got a text from Eldon" Noah announced. "He says, I know how much you wanted the Male solo last year so go em'" He read out.

Noah POV
I feel I can take on anything now, let's get those 5 points!

Miss Kate POV
Noah has just joined us in the wings and he is about to go on stage. This time we aren't taking any chances so he's staying in the wings until he has gone on stage.

"How are you feeling?" Amanda asked, She grabbed his hand and interlocked hers into it. "Great! We're going to do it! I can feel it" He answered confidently. "Well that's a good Because your up next"

Can The Dancer from the next step please take to the stage?

Chuck Anderson - SNR network
This it is, the first step for the internationals champions, Can they take the next step back to the trophy? Let's find out.

Noah POV
As I enter the stage, I'm feeling many things. But on look at Amanda and then at the audience. I have a drive in me to win this 10 point advantage!
As the music starts I feel I'm dancing greatly! The Audience seems to be loving it.

Giselle POV
He's doing a great job! I'm confident he can get the 5 points and Mr international soloist.

Ashley leggat - SNR network
The next step have really pushed it out this year, Noah from A troupe is doing a fantastic job!

Noah finished his Solo at the edge of the stage, After the long wait from Nationals to internationals. He had finally performed and done his solo.
He rushed off back to the wings, his adrenaline was pumping. "How was that?" He asked, hyperventilating, "No-ah that was amazing!" They all yelled. "Well done!" Amanda kisses him passionately.

Amanda POV
I'm so proud of him!

"Hey, Well done!" A familiar, but troublesome voice said to him, accompanied by a hug. "Ella? What are you doing here I..."

Giselle POV
What is Ella doing here?

"Well done on your solo, Hello everyone again. Where's Riley?" She asked, it was as if she had forgotten everything she did the A troupe last year. "She's is in the audience" Kate answered bluntly, "okay thanks"

Ella POV
Oh yeah, Summerford is back. We're determined to get that trophy this year!

She left A troupe, leaving them all confused.

Emily POV
I have heard Riley rant and Curse Ella for months! I wouldn't like to be in her shoes when My sister finally crosses her path again...

Next time - The Male Solos continue, Riley meets someone she hoped shed never see again.
