The New Rachel

Chapter 1

"She has been acting wierd Mr.Shue," Kurt demanded.You could tell from the sterness is his voice he truly was concerned about the diva.

"Have you even noticed" He then questioned. If only Kurt left it at that.

"Mr.Shue she won't even sing and all you do is try to make an example of her by telling the class it is just a cry for attention.If it were... then why didn't she fight? She used to always argue.She is not even putting up a fight anymore Mr.Shue.She is giving in to all of our name calling.She lost what made her so special; her stubborness her sureness of herself.We broke the star, and as she is falling we all just wish on her...wish that she would leave so we could have all the solos, or she would shut up so there could be silence.And the way she has been dressing like she just rolls out of bed.Her clothiong was horrible but this is pathetic.She does not care.And i bet if you looked at her grades..."Kurt was now stopped.

Mr.shue sounded angry when he said this, but Kurt was attcking him,"Rachel is fine.She is still coming to school.She is doing this for attention.I am her Spanish teacher and her grades are just fine she is getting low 80s but the class got harder.You have to stop worrying every time the princess get's a scrape if none of us react she will get over herself.I am doing this for the choir.For our family."

Family this word struck the by."Family, Mr.Shue? Is that what you call us? A group of misfits each with some insecurity is now a family?We are most definitly not a family," Kurt's word were like venom after this."No not a family at all.Family certainly dose not each other names like'manhands', and family most certainly would have been there for me when i was being bullied.My real family and Rachel was.You know Puck even threw me in a dumpster.WE ARE NOT FAMILY."

Mr.Shue no longer knew what to say,"I'm sorry." 

And with those simple words Mr.Shue left.That day in Glee Mr.Shue was later.He went to a dollar store and bought a sheet of star stickers each of different sizes and colours. One star was even sparkly!

"Sorry I am late," Mr.Shue said as he walked in.

Kurt was gritting his teeth as he glanced over, and there was still no Rachel.

"Where is she?" Mr.Shue questioned as he looked over too.

"I don't know, but can we just enoy the quiet without manhands it does not come often," Santana said scornfully.

Mr.Shue frowned as if hearing this kind of commentary for the first time.

"Actually she hasn't been talking Satin she hasn't even been singing, and if you would stop yapping your mouth about what desperate boy wanted your used V maybe you would realize that!"Kurt yelled even scaring himself.

"Why don't you just shut your mouth, or i"ll shove Finn's dick in it.We all know you would like that," Santana said harshly

"Guys.Guys. Stop!" Mr.Shue said shaking his head in dissappointment."Glee was supposed to be somewher that everyone could feel safe.How can anyone here?Glee was supposed to be where everyone can be a star," this time he said taking the sheet of stars from the bag.

At this time Rachel walked in."Of course manhands walks in now she hears the word star, she is afraid that someone more deserving and talented is going to steal her spotlight,"Sanatan said mockingly.

Santana wouldn't have said it if she just looked up.There were dark circles under her eyes.Her baggy sweatshirtand sweatpants hung loosely on her skin.Her hair in some sort of knot on her head,and if it weren't for the redness of her eyes someone would have commented on the rats nest on her head.

Then a wondrous thing happened.Rachel spoke,"Sorry I am late. I couldn't get here earlier."

And that was all. She sat in the back not her usual seat.She looked down as Mr.Shue spoke.It all didn't make sense.

"You are each a star.That is why you came here.Together we are able to make any constellation.Together  we shine bright.But as individuals some are big and some small, some brighter than others,"Mr.Shue said as he took the sheet and gave a star to each member.

When it came Rachel's turn she got a basic gold star.She grabbed the star and dropped it on her way back.She did not want the star because she did not feel like a star.She always dreamed of being a star,but now those dreams were now replaced with terrifying nightmares.

"Now I want you all to take your stars and make a G on this paper," Mr.Shue instructed.Everyone did but one person.Rachel.Rachel did not put her star on the paper she left it on the groung.Now this worried everyone for two reasons. One, she loved Glee even if they did not love her back all the time.Two stars were ARE her thing!

"Rachel where is your star?" Mr.Shue asked.

"It fell.And with germs and all..."She was becoming a great liar.He almost believed her until he noticed she couldn't look up and she tensed when she said it fell.Something was wrong.It wasn't an act.But what was it.
