Title: After A Cappella
Chapter 1 - Prologue
Summary: Sequel to Solo Act. They were scattered around the globe and living out their lives but special circumstances will always bring the Bellas together. This story will follow Beca after becoming a successful recording artist.
In the months that followed the USO tour, Beca and Chloe said goodbye to their extended family and permanently relocated to Spain. Living in Amy's newly purchased estate, they were living the life of luxury while following their dreams.
With her version of the late George Michael's 'Freedom 90' climbing the Billboard charts, Beca had become an overnight singing sensation, and being fed more songs to work with, she had free reign to apply her mixing expertise and produce her own kind of music. As a follow up to her number one hit, she released more songs making her one of the hottest breakout artists of her time. Having gone from a cappella singer to freelance music producer to recording artist, Beca's music dominated the radio airwaves while her face was plastered on the cover of magazines throughout the world. Unprepared for the magnitude of her success, she would have to contend with crazed fanatics and pushy paparazzi invading her privacy, always showing up unexpectedly to capture her every move. She also learned early on that being famous was not only chaotic, it was lonely at times. Besides her close relationship with the Bellas, the constant person in her life was Jesse, who was receiving critical acclaim of his own in scoring films for Sony Pictures. Even though they were no longer romantically involved, they reverted to being best friends and spoke regularly about their blossoming careers, what was happening with their mutual friends and encouraged the other to embrace change including opening their hearts to possibilities.
The rest of the Bellas continued on with their lives...
For Chloe, she was where she always wanted to be; roommates with her best gal pal, attending a reputable veterinary school and being in a loving relationship with an honorable man. Even though her one true love was constantly on the move with the military, Chicago and Chloe were deeply in love and making plans for their future.
Being a millionaire gave Fat Amy opportunities she never thought was possible. As a world traveler, the Aussie experienced one adventure after another but kept her promise of taking care of her extended family. She also guaranteed future generations of Bellas by becoming a benefactor at Barden University; creating the Fat Amy Scholarship to be given out each year to a special student who fit the mold. It was her way of giving back to the college that not only shielded her from a toxic father, it introduced her to the world of a cappella and sisterhood of the Bellas.
With Amy investing in 'The Lodge of Fallen Leaves', Aubrey's team building retreat was reorganized and expanded into major cities throughout the country, becoming a staple for corporate America. Having the company to manage kept the daughter of a war hero preoccupied while Calamity, her significant other toured with her band.
Cynthia Rose was officially the property of the United States Air Force and enrolled in flight school while her domestic partner pursued a dream of her own. Having undergone IVF treatments funded by none other than Fat Amy, the Australian made sure they received the best medical care money could buy. As a result of Amy's generosity, the same sex couple were expecting their first child and, regardless of gender would be named...Pat.
'Let It Flo', the mobile juice company founded by the Guatemalan Bella was officially a franchise strategically located near university campuses throughout the U.S.. With Flo helming the company, Ashley and Jessica became business partners and helped transform a tiny roach coach into a monster chain of gourmet food trucks.
After Lilly's successful exorcism, she followed Beca into the music industry. Joining the hip-hop band they competed against during the USO tour, the Asian Bella fell head over heels in love with one of it's rappers. They were unconventional in every way and appropriately renamed 'Area 51', the birthplace of the girl now known as Esther.
While the Bellas were in Europe performing with the USO tour, Stacie remained in the states and gave birth to a bouncing baby girl. Appropriately naming her daughter Bella, she was the first of the group to reproduce but wouldn't be the last.
After graduating from college, Emily passed the torch to a new generation of Bellas while continuing to write songs and collaborate with Beca like she previously did with 'Flashlight'. Together they were a force to be reckoned with, as one wrote the lyrics and the other produced it's music. When DJ Khaled got a hold of the tunes they worked on, the idol maker brought the Legacy Bella on board as part of his songwriting team while she planned her summer wedding to her beloved, Benji.
Even though they were living in different parts of the world and doing their own thing, the girls were a family first and would always be there for each other. As college graduates finding their places in society, they never passed up an opportunity to perform together or reunite for an important occasion. This is the story of Beca and her backup singing Bellas moving on to the next chapters of their lives. This is what happened after the music stopped or After A Cappella...
