I do not own Glee or anything to do with it. This belongs to Ryan Murphy and Fox. However I do own Emily and the songs used, as well belonging to their own respective companies. I also don't own any of the words used in the episode Hell-o
I'm off again with another fanfic. This time it is Wemma based, with my own spin on how the back nine should have happened, with a few twists thrown in as well. There will also be a few flashforwards as well which will be in italics. Anyway hope you enjoy it and as always don't forget to review!
The New Girl in Town
Episode One: Hell-o to a New Member.
(The pain in her head screamed as she clung to the hand of her father. The grip on his hand tightened as she clung onto his strong grasp but she knew she couldn't hold on much longer.)
"Dad!" she exclaimed as she shut her eyes tight. "I- I don't think I can hold on much longer" she cried out. Suddenly she let her limp grip go and she continued to fall and fall until she couldn't see her father much longer...)
(Figgins looked up from the calculations he was making, due to the budget cuts he was trying to make, and sighed. If it wasn't Sue blackmailing him about their dalliance in the hotel bedroom, it was Schue trying to get out of not going through with the deal he had made. Suddenly he noticed a slight petite girl standing in front of him with long curly red hair and a determined look on her face.)
"Can I help you?" Figgins politely asked his thick Indian accent shining through. "If you want a visitor pass you will have to see my secretary. " He pointed outside his office to an older woman sitting at a desk.
"I'm not a visitor," the red headed girl said "I would like to enrol at McKinley High. I just moved to Lima and this seems to be the only high school around." She scrunched up her nose in confusion. Figgins grinned as he sensed potential in this young girl.
"Well why didn't you say so," the principal grinned "I'm Principal Figgins and welcome to McKinley High. Just fill in one of these forms and you will be enrolled." Figgins opened his desk drawer and pulled out a form, handing it across to the new girl who picked up a pen and started to fill in the form. Suddenly Will poked his nose into the office.
"Sir the Glee Club seem to..." he trailed off as he noticed the girl sitting across from Figgins. She seemed to remind Will of somebody but he couldn't quite place his finger on whom.
"Schue this is..." Figgins said but because the girl hadn't told Figgins her name he couldn't introduce her to him. The girl finished filling in the form, handed it to Figgins and turned around to face Will.
"Emily Smith," she replied shaking his hand "I just enrolled today well this second actually." Will glanced at the young girl and started to form an idea.
"Mr. Schuester," Will smiled and Emily blushed "Listen Figgins its ok I'll take care of Emily" he said as he walked out of Figgins office. Emily followed behind the curly haired male "You don't sing do you, because I'm looking for another female lead to carry the baggage of our Glee Club's female lead..." Will's voice trailed off as student and teacher carried on walking down the corridor.
Emily walked down the corridor as she noticed Mr. Schuester talking to a woman dressed in a tracksuit. He then turned round and strode down the corridor slightly frustrated and nearly ran straight into Emily.
"Sorry Emily," Will rubbed his head "Enjoy your first day?" Emily nodded. "I noticed you enjoyed my Spanish class you seem to be quite good at it!"
"Yeah it's my favourite class" Emily replied. "Mr. Schue, I thought about what you said about joining the Glee Club and I know that I will have to audition but I accept your conditional offer to join." She smiled and Will also grinned.
"Well just come along to our practise after school tonight, it's the first one we have had since winning Sectionals and you can audition then. Some of the kids might give you some problems," Will grimaced thinking of Rachel "But the others won't and will understand they all had to do it."
"Ok," Emily nodded and grinned "I'll see you then Mr. Schue" she replied walking down the corridor towards her locker. Will did a fist pump delighted that he might have found a new member for New Directions and started walking towards the faculty office.
(Emily entered the choir room glancing at the twelve students sat there. She then noticed Mr. Schue drawing something on the board but then noticed Emily and smiled warmly at her.)
"Guys," he replied making sure that the other members of New Directions realised what he was saying "This is Emily and she is going to audition for us today. After her audition I also have something else that I would like to add. But for now Emily take the stage." He smiled at Emily who clasped her hands together and started to breathe in and out.
"I have decided to sing Lionel Ritchie's song 'Hello' because I believe that it's a fitting tribute to welcome myself to the group." Emily started to sing and Rachel, who so far had not been mildly interested in Emily, suddenly pricked her ears up. This girl could sing.
Emily continued to sing as Finn grinned at her, but was shot a glare by Rachel. Quinn started nodding to herself while Will had a strange sense of pride. Emily finished the short part of the song she had prepared and waited for the reaction.
What she wasn't expecting was a loud applause from everyone in the room except for Rachel who was just lightly clapping but inside she was seething. Will walked up to Emily and gave her a clap on the back.
"I guess we have ourselves a new member." He grinned at Emily who smiled back. She then walked towards the seats where she sat next to Tina and Artie.
"What do you guys say when somebody answers the phone?" Will asked the group.
"Whatsup" Mercedes answered.
"Who this be?" Artie also added.
"No she is dead this is her son" Kurt answered pulling a strand of hair.
"Ok..." Will replied "Alexander Grahame Bell, inventor of the telephone, liked to say ahoy ahoy when he answered the phone. It was Edisson who decided that hello was a more appropriate greeting. Look I'm really proud of what you guys did at Sectionals but as most of you have realised it hasn't done much to your day to day schooling." There was a lot of murmuring and nodding as Emily looked around confused. How bad could things be?
"Fact is we need to be a lot better at Regionals than we were at Sectionals, we need a new New Directions, and with Emily today I think we are one step to proving that" Will continued just as the bell rang and the group filed out.
"Well done Emily," Will nodded "And welcome to New Directions."
"There are so many things you don't know about me and I can't wait to show them to you." Will smiled as he was going to kiss the top of Emma's head but decided not to. Emma swooned but then composed herself as she heard a knocking at her door. She looked behind as she noticed a petite red headed girl standing there.
"Miss Pillsbury?" Emily said "I'm Emily Smith I transferred here today. I thought I would just see if you had an appointment just to chat about my time here so far."
"Ok, well I haven't got any appointments at the moment so if your free then now is fine" Emma smiled. Emily nodded.
"Now is fine" she replied sitting in the seat opposite from Emma who wiped the table. Emma also noticed that she and Emily sat in almost the same position.
"So..." Emma trailed off "How are you enjoying things so far?"
"Good" Emily smiled "I decided to join New Directions."
"Oh so you have met W- I mean Mr. Schuester?" Emma replied.
"Yes," Emily nodded "He seems very committed to his students." Emma nodded and the two of them just drifted off into a silence.
"I suppose on your first day nothing really exciting happens" Emma replied. "What about coming back in a few days when you have had time to settle?" Emma reached into her drawer and pulled out a piece of paper and after wiping the pencil down scribbled a time and a date.
"I guess I'll see you then" Emily smiled. Emma noticed that the smile she smiled was exactly the same smile that Will had when he was excited about Glee Club, but she thought it was just her imagination. Emily then left the office leaving Emma alone.
(It was another Glee Club meeting and Emily was sat at the back of the room looking through her English notes after the teacher had informed them that they would have a test. Suddenly she looked shocked as Rachel started standing up and singing something about Hell to Finn, she then started stalking the room looking like a predatory lion looking after her cubs.)
"What is Rachel doing?" Emily thought as the rest of New Directions, except Finn got up and started dancing around Rachel. Emily just sat there as well a stony silence filling her mind as the song finished then Mr .Schuester's voice filled her mind.
"Vocal Adrenaline have not lost a competition in three years. If we don't place at Regionals then the club is over with" Mr. Schuester finished.
"Lose the club," Emily thought "But that can't happen. It just can't". The silence drifted around the club as Finn glanced across at Emily, and nodded obviously thanking her for not joining the rest of New Directions for dancing.
(Will was helping Emily with some voice exercises when all of a sudden Finn came storming into the choir room.)
"Mr. Schue," Finn replied "We have a problem."
"What?" Will looked confused.
"It's Rachel," Finn replied "She's started dating the male lead of Vocal Adrenaline, Jessie."
"St. James," Emily finished for Finn standing up and facing Will "And I thought you were dating Rachel?" Emily looked confused and Will recognised her look as the one he sometimes wore.
"So what are we going to do?" Finn placed his hands in his pockets. "I mean he's clearly using her."
"I could go round to Carmel and have a word with the director" Will replied, but was interrupted by a yelp from Emily.
"No," Emily squeaked "I mean let the relationship fizzle out. Two rival show choir groups, how long is it going to last?" she shrugged "Beside when it does come out how long is it before Kurt, Mercedes etc. lets her stay with him?" Both Will and Finn looked at one another.
"She has a point" Will shrugged. "Well I don't like it." Finn shouted before storming out of the choir room. Will and Emily looked at one another the same confused look on their face. "What makes you think me going to Carmel won't be such a good idea?" Will asked shuffling the choir music "You seemed pretty determined not to let me go."
"Oh just a hunch" Emily shrugged picking up her bag and exiting the room leaving Will alone.
(Emily smiled as she walked down the corridor towards Miss. Pillsbury's office for her weekly appointment. She was right about Kurt and Mercedes as they had threatened Rachel to break up with Jessie otherwise they would quit the club. As she was about to knock on Miss. Pillsbury's office door she noticed Mr. Schue exiting the office in a sombre mood. Emily knocked sharply on the door and noticed Miss. Pillsbury wiping her eyes.)
"Miss. Pillsbury?" Emily looked surprised as she stood by the door "If now is a bad time..."
"No," Emma shook her head wiping her eyes "Sorry just going through a bit of a tough time at the moment that`s all." She got a tissue out of her drawer but then threw it away after one wipe. Emily sat down and started to talk about her week but her heart wasn't really in it and she knew that Miss. Pillsbury wasn't paying attention.
"I better go now" Emily murmured standing up and walking out of the office. She then stood outside of the office breathing deeply and another flashback came to mind.
"What are we going to do?" A sharp female voice was heard over the noise.
"I don't know," a male voice was heard "Here take Em and I'll figure something out." The girl nodded and picked the small red headed girl up. "I'll go inside and try and find the others."
"Ok" the first voice was heard before footsteps ran off and Emily felt her small self being picked up by somebody as she started to run. A few moments passed before she felt herself being dropped down onto the floor.
"Where's mama?" her voice called out.
"I don't know Em," the girl replied "Papa's going to find her and we will be a family again. Just you wait and see."
(Emily stood at the front of the stage singing Hello Goodbye with the rest of New Directions. She was conscious that Rachel and Finn seemed to not connect with one another and she needed to keep the vocals together for the sake of New Directions. However she saw Miss. Pillsbury standing at the top of the auditorium watching Mr. Schue who seemed to be watching the performance but his mind seemed to be on other things. Emily finished the song then watched as Rachel ran off the stage.)
"Excuse me" Emily choked out as she too also ran off the stage almost in tears. "History cannot repeat itself it cannot" Emily thought as she clutched her head and kneeled down on the ground.
This might appear a bit confusing but as the chapters go on then I'm sure the pieces will be connected together. All I can say is that Emily is connected to Will and Emma but that is all I can say. As always please review if you like it!. Also if you want to read a profile of Emily its on my profile page.
