Hey everyone, I'm Cryptic-Case. I usually go by Crypt, CC, or C2 (yes the last two were Code Geass references; I am an anime nerd and proud of it). This is the first time I've written for Glee so hopefully it's not unbearable to read. I hope for quite the opposite, as any writer would. All the same, I do hope there won't be any flames because, honestly, it wastes my time reading how terrible I am and I'm pretty sure it wastes the flamers time explaining why exactly they hate my story so much. Constructive Criticism is a whole different thing and is welcome :)

My basic rule: If you don't like the story, don't tell the person how much you hate it and think they suck because it makes them feel like shit for working hard only to get bitch-slapped on the Internet. Now, enough of my ranting because something lead you to this story and (for whatever reason) made you wanna read it. So, I shall give you said story. Like I said before, sorry if I didn't get the characters right or left anyone out.

Disclaimer:I am not Ryan Murphy, therefore I do not own Glee. If I did, this would be in an episode and not in a fanfic.


Everything had been peaceful. Or, as peaceful as it could be with Rachel trying to convince Mr. Schue to give her a major part in this years Sectionals. Needless to say, everyone was trying their hardest not to kill the irritating girl. It wasn't until Mike and Tina ran in to the choir room did all hell break loose.

"Guys! You will never guess who's back!" Tina panted, clearly out of breath.

"Hopefully it's someone important enough for you two to come late and interrupt practice." Rachel scoffed.

"Shut up and let them talk, Berry." Santana snarled.

Schue shot Santana a warning glance before looking at Tina and Mike.

"Who's back, guys?"

"Ok, do you guys remember Sunshine?" Mike asked. "We just saw her with her mom in Figgin's office. She transferred back!"

The entire club looked at each other in shock and started murmuring quietly. Sam noticed and just looked confused.

"Why are we so excited about the lead singer of Vocal Adrenaline coming to our school?" he asked.

"Because, Sunshine originally audition to be in New Direction. But, she transferred because of Rachel." Kurt answered, sending Rachel a dirty look.

"I already apologized for that! Why do you people insist on holding a grudge?" Rachel exclaimed.

"You sent to poor girl to a crack house, Berry!" Mercedes yelled.

"IT WAS ABANDONED!"

Sam looked horrified. He knew Rachel could be irritating and snippy but never had he thought she'd be so cruel.

"What? Why would you do that?"

"She was jealous of Sunshine's voice." Artie told him.

As everyone began to argue with Rachel, Schue became irritated.

"ENOUGH!" he yelled, catching the attention of everyone. "I realize what Rachel did was way wrong but it's all in the past now. As for Sunshine coming here, it could be an opportunity to welcome her into our glee club. Do you really think she'll wanna join if you're all at each others throats?"

Everyone grumbled and looked at each other.

"Now, lets see if we can get Sunshine into the club." Schue smiled.

"That could be a problem." Quinn said suddenly.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because none of us will be able to get close to her. Most, if not all of us are Seniors and she's only a Sophomore." Quinn explained quickly.

"Yeah, and no offence to Rachel, but she might avoid this place like the plague if she thinks we're gonna send her to another crack house." Finn added.

Rachel began to speak up, but quickly shut herself up when she realized he was probably right.

"We need someone to convince her to join. Someone she doesn't know well." Artie pondered.

"Maybe someone in her grade too..." Puck said.

The club was silent for a minute before something occurred to everyone. They all turned and stared at Sam. Sam looked at them in confusion.

"Um..."

"You're a Sophomore, right?" Kurt asked.

"Well, yeah, but-"

"And he wasn't here when Sunshine auditioned the first time." Mike piped up.

"Guys, I don't know abou-"

"He could bring her here...like a fish..." Brittany smiled.

Everyone stopped at looked at her.

"I don't even know if I have any classes with her!" Sam finally got in.

"True, but you're the same age. She won't be intimidated by you." Quinn said.

"Then it's settled," Finn smirked. "Sam'll be the one to get Sunshine here."

Everyone cheered in agreement, completely ignoring the fact Sam had a lost look on his face.

"How the hell am I gonna be able to do this?" Was the only thing on Sam's mind.
