A/N: This is my first attempt at this whole thing… Read/Review.. Let me know if I should go on!

I don't own anything from instant star… when I do own something, I'll tell yas!

Chapter 1- Banned?

"Jude, the problem is that people just aren't taking you seriously" Darius said with a grim look on his face. "Your record sales are down, and frankly you're costing the studio more money than you're bringing in."

"But.." Jude said in disbelief. "The tour went so well."

"Obviously not well enough." Darius said with a sigh. "Now look, I took over G Major to pick it up off the ground. As our first Instant Star winner, I don't want to just throw you on the back burner and hope something will happen. Because if you're not writing/recording, you're not going to be able to get anywhere except for where you're at now. So, I decided to Send you to the States for a couple of months."

"The States?" Jude asked, shocked "What, I'm not doing good enough for you, so you ship me off to another country? That's crap!" Jude exclaimed hurt and angered by the sudden turn of events. "Darius, I want to stay here, and make my music here. My family, band and whole life is here. What makes you think my parents will even go for this?"

"I've already talked to them." Darius explained losing his patience. "They think it will be good for you. To get away from all the family and friend drama that's going on. To get a new and clear perspective on your music. A new inspiration." Darius said. "I'll give you a few days to think about it. SME will be welcome to go with you, There is a tutor set up, apartment, and chaperone. All you have to do is say yes."

Jude sighed. "Alright Darius. Let me think about it." She sat there with a sad/confused/pensive look on her face. She slowly got up and made her way to the door.

"Jude?" Darius said as she reached the door "Take the rest of the day off."

She gave him a small smile. "Kay. Thanks." As she walked out of G Major there were a million thoughts going through her head. The States? Tutor? Chaperone? Living alone? She needed to think. She was so wrapped up in her thoughts she didn't even hear Tommy call her name…

So that's it guys… What do you think? Chapter 2 or no Chapter 2? Review… Let me know!
