V. Battle

I sighed and buried my face in my hands for the 40th time. The other top 9 members looked at me worriedly.

"Are you okay Jihyun?" Hayoung asked me.

I sighed. "I keep messing up this one part, I can't seem to get it."

I didn't want my debut spot to be taken away from me. I worked very hard to pass the video evaluations, just to have to pass another thing.

But at this pace, it will be taken away from me.

"WELCOME!"

"TRAINEES, FOR YOUR SECOND MISSION!"

Everyone clapped and cheered.

The performances started, with C-class going against B-class. Honestly, they were both very good and Jeon Heejin especially.

Three members ended up switching between C-class and B-class. That meant that the gap wasn't two big between the teams. I'm sure the A-class is as good as the top 9.

The A-class group went up, with Ryujin amongst them. If I were to have to switch with Ryujin, I'd feel pretty bad but not as bad as if I were to switch with someone else.

Their performance ended, with two members switching.

It was time for the top 9 to perform.

Along with the other eight, we got on stage and got ready.

Don't mess up don't mess up don't mess up-

The music suddenly started and I didn't realize that I totally blanked out. I missed the beat by a mere second, but a second was enough to notice my mistake. I quickly caught up, but I knew that I had messed up real bad.

Damn it, I only had one job.

I continued performing the best as I could, hoping it would make up for my mistake.

As the high notes started, and the dance moves that came along with it, the harder it became. My voice came out noticeably shaky and breathless.

The music ended and it was time for the switches. I silently cursed at myself in disappointment.

"There are two switches, I will announce the first one now." YG said. "Lee Sujin, A-class."

"You will be switching with Hwang Jihyun."

I sighed and nodded in disappointment and quickly walked over to the A-class side next to Ryujin.

"I was a bit disappointed Jihyun." YG said. "Your rank is fluctuating a lot."

"Yes, I will work harder." I said.

Ryujin patted my back lightly, earning a slight smile from me. I'll be back in the top 9, soon.

The boys class switches were shocking, someone from B-class somehow climbed all the way up to the top 9. I forgot his name, Jonghung? Hongjung? But he stood out a lot.

Woo Jinyoung wasn't part of the performances, and I assumed it was because of his dancing. None of the HappyFace entertainment members were amazing at dancing.

When the top 9 battles were over, we all went home for the next day would be our big performance.

I was about ready to sleep when my phone went off. I assumed it was Jinyoung messaging me.
