Okay, here's a new story idea I had, and it spawned from reading one of my friend's (mysterywriter 5775) fanfics (which is really good; it's called Phantom Idol, Disney Edition and I suggest you read, because it's awesome!), so I hope you all enjoy this! Should be fun!!
Warning: May contain horribly cheesy and silly situations and or band name knock-offs.
Disclaimer: The only thing about this I own are the characters, Kierra and Emilee, and I have to credit my friend mysterywriter 5775 for this idea, so the idea isn't even totally mine. Oh, and the name knock-off's are kinda my own. I in no way own the real bands from which the knock-off names were born.
Alagaesian Idol
Day One:
"Greetings, ladies, gentlemen, and children of all ages, and welcome to Alagesian Idol. Here as your host, I am Nari Pointyears.
"And may I introduce our judges?
"First up is our ever stylish, ever loveley Queen Islanzadi, hailing all the way from Ellesmera."
Crowd goes wild!
"Second up, and the one keeping it most real is Horst Blacksmith, who is notorious for his work with such groups as the "Thorns and Roses", and the "Tumbling Rocks."
Crowd goes even wilder.
"And, sighs in a dismally accepting sort of way, last but not least, Ellesmera's own Vanir Grayback, the III."
The whole of the female audience goes crazy, throwing things such as Nolfavrell Jaggert plushies, as Vanir just smirked.
"Now, you may have been tuned in with us last week, but if not, that's okay, too. Let's just have a little recap, shall we?"
Recap of last week
"The beautiful town of Carvahall, known for its lush greenery, and plentiful agriculture; but, how is the talent?"
Nari stands at the head of thousands of screaming fans, pushing and shoving their way forward.
He turns to a young girl of about sixteen. "So... your Isobel Crebs, correct?" upon her giddy nod of approval, Nari continued. "Well, lets see what the judges think."
"It was just dreadful," snapped Vanir, taking a sip of his Falenerve. "The whole audition; the singing, outfit, hair. Honestly, who wears their hair in two buns over their ears?"
And so, young Isobel ran from the auditions, crying her eyes out, her heart set on stardom, shattered forever.
Nari shook his head. It seemed the judges were in a bad mood that day, as they were continually turning all of their contestants away. Many a heart were shattered over the loss, and Nari had to restrain many mean grandmothers/grandfathers from doing something that would be legally frowned upon, to the judges.
The day continued, and Nari stood with a girl of about seventeen, who had long silver hair, bright blue eyes, and a slight frown on her lips. "I'm standing here with a young lady who hopes to turn the judges day around," Nari turned to her. "You are... Kierra Stance, right?"
"I am," she nodded, looking at him as though she saw right through his superficial charade.
"And how old are you?" Nari asked, a little unnerved by the young girl's piercing stare, though oddly, it didn't scare him as much as it probably should have.
"Seventeen," replied Kierra, and she formed a rare smile around her lips.
"Well," said Nari, his voice a little higher pitched than usual; was it just her, or was the room really hot? "Let's see what the judges think/say," he said, opening the door to the audition room. "Good luck."
Kierra smiled sweetly at him, teasingly, of course. "Thank you," and she walked into the audition room with an attitude of, "I really don't care if you say no," and looked at the judges who were shuffling through their papers.
"So, you are Kierra Stance?" said Horst, looking up at her. "Tell us something about yourself."
Kierra thought, then shrugged. "I hate the color pink," she said, casting her mind for other things that might be interesting about herself. She really couldn't stumble on any, so she settled for looking at the judges.
Vanir frowned. "Pity. It's a very attractive color on women," he said, sipping more Falenerve.
Horst rolled his eyes. "What will you be singing for us?"
"Before he cheats," replied Kierra, and without further ado burst into song. "Well, I dug my knee into the side of his pretty little mustang named Collide (A/N: Remember, they don't have 4 wheel drives back then. ); I carved my name into his leather seat. I-"
"Good," said Islanzadi, perking up at Kierra's rich, and colorful voice. "I like you... a lot. You're very good."
The other two agreed, and Kierra was on her way to Uru-Baen! YAY!
Next in line was Emilee Yawe, who was just here because her then suitor had made her come. He was a jerk, and things didn't last, but let's see what the judges had to say.
"Emilee Yawe, then?" Vanir asked, rather impatiently, looking down at his papers. "Tell us something about yourself, doll,"
Emilee rolled her eyes, but continued. "I...erm..." she had to think; she hates being put on the spot, and she's not really good with interviews anyway. "My favorite color is pink."
Vanir smiled. "Well, good; that makes one girl today. I think we'll get along really well. What are you going to sing for us, then?"
Emilee thought for a moment, then, "If we hold on together," she said, then, upon their nods of approval, started singing. "Don't lose your way, with each passing day. You've come so far, don't throw it away..."
"Good, good," said Vanir, looking at his papers. "You know what I like about you, Emilee?" he said, sipping on his drink. "I like the fact that you are genuinely sweet. I think you'll go very far in this competition. I say yes."
Horst shook his head. "I disagree, man. The notes were shaky and the pitch was all over the place. I think you can do well, but I just don't think your ready yet." he said.
Islanzadi frowned. "I was borderline, myself. I think you deserve a second chance, so you're going through to Uru-Baen!"
End of Recap
"And so," said Nari, smiling. "there is the recap of last week. Others that made it through to our top twenty four include Eragon Shadeslayer, Jordan RockStarfish, Murtagh Lemmon, and others that it will take too long to mention, and as it stands, that is it for today's edition of Alagesian Idol! Tune in next time, folks. And this is Nari Pointyears, signing out."
Okay, I hope you all enjoyed. I really liked the idea of doing one of these, and it helps ease my writer's block for my other Eragon story. So, like my good friend Nari said, stay tuned, and see what our characters will be put up to.
