Oh No, Chapter 2.

I walk onto the stage, bright lights shine in my eyes so I can't see, the lights get turned down so I can finaly see. I look at the crowd and think, can they turn the lights back on? But I put on a act, I walk confidently and smile take a seat on a wooden seat, thats been put there and a long cable to jack into my guitar, yes I know its a acoustic made out of wood but my guitar is custom.

"So you are?" A judge asks. By the tone of his voice I think nobody could sing or act.

"Nathan Joan." I replied pleasently.

"Where you from Nathan?" He asked.

"Scotland." I said grinning.

"So are you playing the guitar?" He asked. Wow what a dumb question.

"I'm going too sing and play, I'm going to sing: 21 Guns by Green Day." I smiled and a few cheers from the crowd. I start too play the intro into the song and I started too sing.

"Do you know what's worth fighting for?

When it's not worth dying for?

Does it take your breath away

And you feel yourself suffocating?

Does the pain weigh out the pride?

And you look for a place to hide?

Did someone break your heart inside?

You're in ruins

One, 21 guns

Lay down your arms, give up the fight

One, 21 guns

Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I

When you're at the end of the road

And you lost all sense of control

And your thoughts have taken their toll

When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul

Your faith walks on broken glass

And the hangover doesn't pass

Nothing's ever built to last

You're in ruins

One, 21 guns

Lay down your arms, give up the fight

One, 21 guns

Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I

Did you try to live on your own

When you burned down the house and home?

Did you stand too close to the fire

Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone?

When it's time to live and let die

And you can't get another try

Something inside this heart has died

You're in ruins

One, 21 guns

Lay down your arms, give up the fight

One, 21 guns

Throw up your arms into the sky

One, 21 guns

Lay down your arms, give up the fight

One, 21 guns

Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I."

I finish the song and I hear a collected gasp from everybody, and I just lay down a sly/nervous smile, the judges stunned the audience even more so and they start to clap. I had no doubt I would be the next big thing. This could be the best or the worst thing in my life, but if I win I'm going to keep things the same as possible.

I hope.
