Third Person POV
"Alright, Stark," Alek turned to his partner. "Ever Tangoed before?"

"Nope."

"But you wanted to do this anyways?"

"Right," she nodded.

"Why?"

She shrugged, "Guess to get my mind off things. Now let's get started."

"Okay," Alek nodded. "But I will be your teacher, which means you need to listen to the words coming out of my mouth. If I tell you go left, go left. I tell you to go right, go right. Got it? Or else you'll get stepped on."

"Okay, okay," Thea put up her hands. "I get it. Now let's get on with it."

Alek stuck out this hand. Thea grabbed it and he pulled her closer. "Alright."

She followed his instructions.

"Step. Step. Step."

Step. Step. Step.

"Side step."

Side step.

"Drag."

Drag.

"Great. You know the main steps."

"There's more to it than this?"

Brooklyn's POV
"Please."

"I said I had to think about it."

"It's been a few days," Castor was starting to follow me to my Skills. "Thea and Alek are already starting to work on it. If we start too late, we won't win the money."

I rolled my eyes, "Castor, I'm not focused on the contest right now. I have Skills."

"I just need an answer," he groaned.

"Fine," I gave in. "I'll do it."

"Yes!" He clapped. "I'll set up dates where we can practice."

"Do you even know how to tango?"

"No," he admitted. "But we can learn right?"

"Right," I nodded. "I'm sure there are videos on YouTube."

"Yeah." He ran off and I entered the building.

I was greeted by Fury as soon as I walked into the Skills room, "Where have you been?"

"Castor needed to talk with me."

"That's no excuse."

"I'm only two minutes late," I sat down my bag. "It's not that big of a deal."

"Well your father sure wouldn't have been this late."

I glared at him, "I am not my father."

"Obviously," Fury kept a deadpan expression. "Now stop the chitter-chatter and let's get started."

Castiel's POV
I was walking by Artemis's room when she came out, "Hey! I have news."

"Okay."

"Alek and Thea have already started."

"And I care?"

"Well if they're getting started, we probably should too. At least if you want to win."

"We're going to win," I nodded. "What even is this Tango?"
