Bre's POV   

    We walk out onto the stage all together again. No one was asked what song they were singing they just went out and sang.
    So that's what we did. Emma and I had the first paragraph. We were singing Taking You. We all walked out on the stage and took our places. We all gave each other a reassuring look before beginning to sing.

"I need you in my life like limelight
Wherever I go I'm taking you

Whenever I call you're my lifeline
I never hang up I depend on you

You fly with me so I call you red-eye
The sky's so clear when you're the view

I only say it cus I really mean it
I ain't afraid of how you got me feeling

The sky's so clear when you're the view
Anywhere I go I'm taking you
Anywhere I go I'm taking you

I need you in my life like limelight
Wherever I go I'm taking you

Whenever I call you're my lifeline
I never hang up I depend on you

You fly with me so I call you red-eye
They sky's so clear when you're the view

I only say it cus I really mean it
I ain't afraid of how you got me feeling

The sky's so clear when you're the view
Anywhere I go I'm taking you
Anywhere I go I'm taking you
Anywhere I go I'm taking you
The sky's so clear when you're the view

I only say it cus I really mean it
I ain't afraid of how you got me feeling
Sky's so clear when you're the view
Anywhere I go I'm taking you
Anywhere I go I'm taking you
Anywhere I go I'm taking you"

     We lock hands and bow, all laughing. We know we did a good job. We know that unless Idol fans are really stupid none of us are going home. We hope.
     We walk off stage and sit together and just talk. After everybody has sang, we walk back out onstage. The judges decided that since were all groups anyway, that if a group with a duo from the beginning is nominated, the judges can eliminate only one from the duo.
      It's like if we got nominated, Emma could go home, and Ella could stay. But none of us planned to go home. Not anytime soon, at least. We stood hand in hand again, waiting for Lionel to spill the beans.
      There were four groups. We each had all five left and two groups are getting put up for elimination.
     Lionel tore the envelope open and read it, before nodding. "The first band up for elimination is...." he paused for about ten seconds before suddenly pointing at a group to the left of us. It had three boys and two girls.
     They nodded solemnly. They all gave each other a hug before breaking apart and looking back at Lionel.
      "The second band up for elimination is.." he paused again and then pointed to the group to the right of us. I let out a relieved sigh.
       Two people were going home tonight. A person from the group to the right of us and one from the left. "The people going home tonight are Linsey," he pointed to one of the girls from the group to the left of us. She nodded and gave her group a group hug (lmao) before walking off stage "and Hazel." He pointed to a band to the right of us.
      She nodded and walked off the stage, following Linsey. Katy spoke up. "The next episode will be filmed in a week. By then, we want you to have a name. For your group, or band or whatever you want to call it. Also, the next song you sing must be original."
