The crowd went wild as the judges walked on stages and made their way to take their seats.
Simon waved at the crowded, "Okay let's get these auditions started!"
Harlem New York.
"My name is Finn Hudson, I'm 24, I am from Harlem New York and I am a host at a restaurant," Finn said into the camera, "Ever since I was young I was always really into music, I learned how to play the drums and not long after that I began to sing. It wasn't until now that my girlfriend convinced me to audition,"
The camera followed Finn around as he made his way back stage, getting ready to go on stage. He climbed the few steps and waited for his queue to go on stage. Then one of the crew members handed him a microphone and send him in.
Finn was in awe as he walked on stage. The crowd was huge.
"Hello," Simon said as he read down on Finn's paper that he had on his panel.
"Hi," Finn said with a small smile.
"What's your name?" Demi asked.
"My name is Finn Hudson,"
"Finn, you know someone very interest why don't you tell us who?"
Finn knew they were going to ask him about this, "Yeah, It's my girlfriend,"
"Who's your girlfriend?" Kelly asked with a smile.
"Rachel Berry,"
The crowd let out a cheer.
"Woah your Rachel Berry's boyfriend? The Broadway star?" Demi asked surprised, "How long have you guys been together,"
"About two years, she was the one who actually convinced me to come and audition,"
"That's sweet," Kelly said.
"So Finn if your girlfriends famous why didn't you just ask her to help you," Paulina asked
"Because if I make it big I it to be because I worked my butt off, I don't people to just give it to me," Finn explained.
Simon nodded with a tiny hint of a smile, "I think I might like you Finn,"
Finn gave him a smile.
"What song are you going to sing today?"
"Jesse's girl,"
"Okay, good luck," Simon said.
Finn took a deep breath as the music began playing. The crowded cheered and whistled. He began to sing the song, gaining momentum as the crowd cheered. He let himself get lost in the song. He knew he was killing it.
And then Simon stopped the music. Finn got extremely nervous as to what was about to happen.
"Kelly," Simon said.
"I really liked it, it was really sweet," Kelly said, "I am going to say yes,"
"Paulina,"
"That was such a good cover of the song. It's going to have to be a yes,"
Pauline said.
Finn's smile got bigger by the second.
"Demi,"
"That was really good and your cute and I love your goofy smile so I am going to say yes," Demi said.
"Well Finn you really impressed me," Simon said, "You have four yes's"
"Thank you so much!"
Nashville Tennessee
"Has anyone ever told you have really big lips?" Kelly asked.
Sam chuckled, "A few times,"
"Kelly yes or no?" Simon asked.
"It's a definitely from me," Kelly laughed.
"Alright Sam you have four yes's congratulations,"
Miami Florida
"Blaine you have such a good voice it's a yes from me," Simon said.
"Me and my girls agree," Demi said as she gestured towards Kelly and Paulina, "It's a yes from us,"
Los Angeles California.
"Now Noah you are really cocky but you have an amazing voice so I am going to say yes," Demi said.
"Kelly,"
"Yes,"
"Paulina?"
"Of course!"
"You have four yes's Noah,"
Detroit Michigan.
"My name is Santana Lopez, I'm 23 years old and I am from Detroit, Michigan. I work at a coffee shop downtown," Santana said into the camera, "Detroit is a special place to my heart, I grew up there. But it's also surrounded by poverty so you rarely see anyone make it big that's from there. I definitely grew up around poverty. So just to even be auditioning in the X Factor is such a big deal to me,"
After that brief interview the camera followed Santana around for a bit longer, they asked her a few more questions up until she was about to go on.
Santana stood nervously on the aide stage. She clutched onto the microphone and took a deep breathe. The crew member gave her the signal and she made her way on stage.
"Wow," Demi said as she saw Santana walk on stage, "Well Hello there,"
Santana chuckled, "Hey,"
"So what is your name?" Simon asked.
"My name is Santana Lopez and I am from Detroit,"
The crowd roared and cheered in response when they heard the shout out to Detroit.
"Eres Latina?" Paulina asked with a small smile.
"Si, soy Mexicana y Puerto Riceña," Santana said.
"Has anyone ever told you how dreamy you are?" Demi asked.
Santana chuckled as the crowd let out wolf whistles, "Yes I have heard that,"
"Well what son-," Simon began.
"Do you have a girlfriend?" Demi interrupted.
"No,"
"Do you want one?" Demi asked
"Oh my god," Kelly laughed.
"When I win I'll think about getting one," Santana smiled.
"Okay Demi stop," Simon interrupted.
"What? I was just asking a few questions," Demi said innocently.
"This is the X Factor not Find Demi a date," Simon exclaimed, "Okay Santana what song will you be sing today?"
"I am going to sing Girl on Fire," Santana said.
"Okay," Simon nodded, "Take it away,"
The music began playing and it was like the notes floated through Santana's body. She began to sing and the crowd cheered when she hit the notes on point. She could tell the judges were impressed. She had practiced this song for weeks and it had paid off. She finished the song hitting that last note on key.
"Wow, I am really impressed with your voice," Simon began.
"I agree," Demi noted, "It's really seductive and amazing,"
"Okay how about a vote before Demi jumps on the poor girl,"
Santana laughed at the comment.
"Do we really have to vote?" Kelly asked before turning to Santana, "Honey you got four yes's"

Boot camp
She couldn't believe it, she had just gotten eliminated. After all the work she had done to get here it was ruin. It was probably because she was so nervous the she misses a few notes and sang them off key. Santana let out a defeated sign and exited the stage with all the other eliminated contestants. She watched as most of them went and cried to their family members.
Not Santana though, her parents were back in Detroit. They couldn't afford plane tickets to LA right now. The thought about telling her parents that she didn't make it was heartbreaking.
It wasn't until a crew member tapped her on the Shoulder and told her that the judges wanted her back on stage. She wasn't really sure why but she complied. They made her stand with four other guys who didn't make it either. She had met them before too; it was Puck, Blaine, Sam and Finn.
She looked at the stage and saw that they was other people too and like them they were separated into a group.
"Now you're standing here before us because we don't think you guys have reached the potential to be solo artist," Simon said, "However I have taken the time to carefully organize and put you were you are now,"
There was a pause, a nerve wrecking silence. Everyone wanted to know why they were here.
"Congratulations, you are the two new groups,"
Santana's heart skipped a beat as she heard the news. She felt the guy named Puck hugging her as Finn and Blaine whistle while Sam congratulated the group of girls that had also made it.
This was their second chance.

Finale
Santana was backstage with Blaine and Puck; they were warming up for their performance. Sam was in the bathroom, he wasn't feeling so good. And Finn was talking to his girlfriend who had come to seem the final performance.
She couldn't believe they had made it to the final three. They were about to go on in less than half an hour, the song they were about to perform was it. It would define if they would get eliminated.
"Hey guys," Finn came over to the small group. He was holding hands with a short brunette, who had her arms linked with a blonde.
Santana figured the brunette was Rachel, Finn's girlfriend. She was cute, and the beautiful blonde must be a friend. Santana had to admit that the blonde was really hot.
"This is my girlfriend Rachel and her friend Quinn," Finn introduced, "and these are Puck, Blaine and Santana,"
They all greeted each other but when Santana shook Quinn's hand, they made eye contact. Those hazel eyes sent chills down Santana's hand. It was then that she recognized her, she was Quinn Fabray. Emmy and Golden Globe winning actress. She came from a very famous family, The Fabray's. Her father was in a lot of action movies back in the day, while her mother was in a supermodel and starred in many Comedy's, and her sister Frannie Fabray was a fashion designer with several clothing lines. This girl was beyond it.
Santana composed herself and joined in the conversation Puck and Rachel were having. Sam came in a few minutes later, he was still a little sick but well enough to perform.
"You know I really like your cover of Girl on Fire,"
Santana turned slightly when she realized Quinn was talking to her, "You watch the show?"
Quinn chuckled slightly, "Kind of have to. Rachel is my best friend and her boyfriends on it so.."
Santana smiled, "You must be a very good friend,"
Quinn shrugged, "Well I am here tonight to watch you guys win,"
"And if we don't?" Santana arched an eyebrow.
"Well then I'll be here if you need a shoulder to cry on,"
Santana licked her lips as she watched Quinn carefully.
"Santana!" A crew member called, "Top of The World is on in 5. Take your places,"
Santana turned back to Quinn, "I guess this is goodbye?"
Quinn leaned in and pressed her lips against Santana's cheek, "Good luck,"

Santana entered the dressing room, followed by the rest of the band. They hung their heads in disappointment, they just got eliminated.
"This sucks," Puck muttered.
"We were so close," Blaine said.
"Maybe if I wasn't so sick," Sam said sadly.
"Guys, we lost but that doesn't mean we have to stop here," Finn said, "People love us, maybe we can make it big,"
Santana's eyes shot up as soon as Finn said that, maybe he was right.
There was a slight knock on the door before Simon entered followed by another man who looked like he was in his mid-thirties.
"Hey guys," Simon greeted, "I know you guys are pretty bummed out but I have some really good news for you. This is my very good friend William Schuester, and Will this is-"
"Top of The World," Will smiled, "Who doesn't know them,"
The band stood there confused at what was going on.
"Will here will be your manager," Simon explained.
"Manager?" Finn asked.
"For what?" Santana questioned.
"Because I am signing Top of The World to my label," Simon smiled.
"No freaken way!"
There was cheering and whistles in that room. Santana hugged Finn as Puck jumped from happiness. Looks like this was just the start for them, not the end.
