<Shelby’s P.O.V.>

Every contestant was done performing and the judges were already deliberating. Everyone fell anxious as we all waited for the final results.

Our group was huddled at one corner as we waited for the announcement of winners. “What if we don’t win?” Cherry said all of a sudden.

The four of us stare at her for a moment.

“Then its okay.” Ian said smiling. “We did our best and we had fun. Didn’t we?”

Cherry just smiled back at him. I couldn’t help but feel nervous myself. But judging by the four of them, win or lose, I’m just happy to be here.

Though winning 3rd or second place wouldn’t hurt too \(>u<)v

After a few minutes the host went up stage and announced that he finally has the results. Everyone was hanging on the edge of their seats as the host started announcing the top five to come up the stage.

The top five are the contestants where in the top 3 will be chosen. God I hope we’re in the top five.

ToT

A drum roll was heard and then the host started announcing the top five.

“For this year’s top 5, we have..Soul Resonance, Aids, Star Skrew,  Hybrid Clan and Absolute Zero! Please give it up for our top five! ”

“YES! We’re in!” Ray cheered as he dragged me up the stage along with everyone.

The crowd welcomed us with happy cheers and applauses. Some were even chanting their favored contestants.

I give out a sigh of relief.

We made it to the top 5. I thought to myself. Now I really don’t care what happens next. I’m just happy.

The moment we positioned ourselves on the stage, the five of us hold hands and smile. “Whatever the results are, I’m happy I got to perform with you guys.” Ray whispered to my ear.

“Me too.” I whispered back.

I stare at him as he smiles at the crowd and winks. I hear girls squeal and I laugh. It was like yesterday we were children singing inside our living room as dad played the piano.

Just thinking about it makes me sad. Knowing that he’s leaving how wouldn’t I?

I’m really gonna miss this guy.

“Third place hoes too~~~THE DANCE GROUP AIDS!” the host announced.

Everyone claps as a group of girls receive their prize. One of them even danced in front xD

 ---

“Second Place goes too~~ooh~~ guess you guys aint the T-fest winners this year, either way, CONGRATULATIONS SOUL RESONANCE!” The cloud applauses them and they went to the host and got their prize.

I was a bit stunned knowing they didn’t get first place. But still, they seemed pretty happy though. Keervin and Carlo even waved at the crowd.

“HAPPY TALENT FEST WEST WOOD ACADEMY!!” Alyssa and Crischene screamed as they took the microphone from the host.

The crowd screams, some even howled like wolves, mostly boys though, typical.

I was getting nervous knowing our names were still not called. There are three of us left. Soul Resonance lost. The winner is any of us three.
