Best team mates ever after
Since the Bannerman Road gang have arrived at Ever After High, there have been contests to celebrate their arrival. Two people wanted to be left out in the celebrations. One of them was Cerise Hood. Ever since she came back from Earth, she did not feel comfortable. Yes, she did not have to worry about getting hunted by aliens or worried that someone was going to kill her, but she preferred her life that way now that she was back.
The other person that wanted to be left alone was Ruby White. She was not considered as a friend to many people due to what she was, but Sarah Jane and Cerise helped her through it, and they all became the best of friends. Clyde and Rani hated her and wanted her to leave them for good, but Cerise said that they needed to give Ruby a chance. Maria, Sky and Luke said that they had to give her a chance.
As Apple looked at the notice board that morning, she noticed a poster advertising a new competition called 'Best Team Mates Ever After'. It read:
Calling all maidens!
Do you know about aliens?
Can you work with someone from the Bannerman Road gang?
If so, sign up now!
(Only 10 people can enter, so there will be five pairs.)
Sign up for Best Team Mates Ever After!
Apple ran off to find Sky, knowing that they could work really well together.
Sarah Jane and Maddie were in the village of book end when Maddie brought up about Best Team Mates Ever After.
"Wow," Sarah Jane said. "That sounds really interesting."
"Yep," Maddie replied. "Shall we do it?"
"Sure," Sarah Jane replied as they logged into my chapter and nominated themselves for the competition.
Successful pair number 1: Sarah Jane Smith and Madeline Hatter
Apple managed to find Sky and told her about it.
"It sounds like good fun," Sky said. "Let's enter!" They logged into my chapter and nominated themselves.
Successful pair number 2: Sky Smith and Apple White
Cerise was sitting on her bed when Ruby knocked on the door. "Come in!" Cerise called. Ruby opened the door.
"Hello Cerise," she said as she sat on the bed beside her. "Have you heard of the competition called Best Team Mates Ever After? It sounds like a lot of fun. Two pairs have already signed up."
"What pairs are there?" Cerise asked.
"There is Sarah Jane Smith and Madeline Hatter and Apple White and Sky Smith." Ruby replied. "Shall we join them?" Cerise nodded as they nominated themselves.
Successful pair number 3: Ruby White and Cerise Hood
Ashlynn and Maria were talking in their dorm room when Apple and Sky burst in, telling them hurriedly about Best Team Mates Ever After.
"Apple, I'm not so sure about this," Ashlynn replied.
"Sorry girls, but you two are already nominated," Apple replied. On the website, it read:
Successful pair number 4: Maria Jackson and Ashlynn Ella
Rani was walking by herself when Ginger ran up to her. "Hi Rani," she said.
"Hi Ginger," Rani replied. "Have you heard of Best Team Mates Ever After?" Ginger nodded.
"Shall we go for it?" Ginger asked. Rani nodded as she logged onto my chapter. Soon, a message popped up.
Successful pair number 5: Rani Chandra and Ginger BreadHouse
All of the competitors lined up behind the stage, wearing their best, getting ready for the quiz. Sky and Apple were running through the aliens they knew, Sarah Jane was warning Maddie not to speak in Riddleish, Ashlynn was helping Maria learn about different types of aliens, while Rani and Ginger were helping one another match the pictures of aliens to their names. Ruby and Cerise were trying to forget that it was a competition. It was so hard to forget that as outside, many people were cheering. In the end, Cerise and Ruby gave up; instead, they ran through all of the aliens they knew as the song 'Kiss the girl' was playing in the background. Melody Piper was making the volume louder for when the pairs came out.
"First pair is… Madeline Hatter and Sarah Jane Smith!" Headmaster Grimm announced. Maddie and Sarah Jane walked onstage, hand in hand. Maddie was wearing a mad looking dress with a blue bodice and a green skirt. She had a mad hair style, which Ashlynn tried to tame, but it only looked madder. Sarah Jane had her usual hair style, but she wore a beautiful blue blouse and a white waistcoat with white pearls. She also wore an aqua skirt, which really suited her. She, of course, wore her usual boots that reached to her knees. The audience applauded politely as they made their way towards their podium.
"Next," Headmaster Grimm boomed. "Is Apple White and Sky Smith."
The Royals went wild. Apple was wearing a pure white dress that reached to the floor and she had red gloves. Sky was wearing her orange party frock and she wore yellow gloves. She also wore silver sandals. After they took their place behind their podium before Headmaster Grimm announced the next pair.
"Up next are Cerise Hood and Ruby White."
Every one of the Rebels and Daring went wild. Cerise was wearing a red dress that reached to her knees and blue boots. The wolves in her pack howled their approval and Carmine jumped up into her arms. Ruby was also wearing a red dress which reached to her knees also. She was also wearing a black cardigan, which sparkled with hints of silver which Lizzie sewn in. They walked over to their podium which was beside Sarah Jane and Maddie.
"Now, ladies and gentlemen, please raise the roof for Ashlynn Ella and Maria Jackson."
Ashlynn was wearing a lacy blue dress which ended just before her knees. Her crystal shoes sparkled which each step she took. Maria was wearing a purple dress that reached to the floor and a pink cardigan. The rebels and Hunter applauded their approval. They reached their podium before Headmaster Grimm announced the last pair.
"Lastly," he said. "We have Ginger BreadHouse and Rani Chandra."
Ginger and Rani walked on stage. Ginger was wearing a pastel yellow blouse and a pastel pink skirt. She also wore silver sandals. Rani was wearing a pastel blue dress and gold sandals. Clyde whistled and all of the rebels cheered. Ginger and Rani were behind their podium before Headmaster Grimm began the quiz.
"First question is: Which alien cannot touch vinegar?"
Sarah Jane hit the buzzer first. "Slitheen," she said. Headmaster Grimm nodded before he said the next question.
"Who tried to destroy Earth by helping other aliens?" He asked. Cerise and Ruby looked at one another nervously. No one was answering the question. Cerise hit her buzzer. "Ruby White?" she asked. Ruby hung her head, ashamed, and nodded.
"Next question: Which alien made Sky to destroy the metal kind as a doomsday weapon?" Sky hit her buzzer.
"The Fleshkind," she replied. Headmaster Grimm nodded as he produced the next question.
"Who had the ability to body jump?" Rani slammed her hand on her buzzer.
"Androvax," she replied. Headmaster Grimm nodded.
"What alien looks like a green squid?" Ashlynn knew the answer off by heart. She pushed her buzzer.
"The bane," she replied. Headmaster Grimm nodded.
"So far, the score is one all," he said. "The first four pairs to get two points will go to the next round, but the students' vote will determine who will be kicked out. They will have to vote for the pair that dressed the best. The next question is: Who had written Sarah Jane out of time so that she died instead of Andrea?"
Maddie's hand slammed down on her buzzer. "The Trickster," she said. With that, both Sarah Jane and Maddie were almost through.
"Next question is: Which alien looks like Rhinos?" Ruby's hand slammed on the buzzer.
"The Judoon," she said. It was correct, so she and Cerise were almost through.
"The question now is, who did Sarah Jane travel with?" Maria hit her buzzer along with Ashlynn.
"The Doctor," they chorused and they were almost in for the next round.
"The last question is what was the name of the clown that was stealing children?" Ginger hit her buzzer.
"Odd Bob," she said and both she and Rani were through.
"Now," Headmaster Grimm announced. "The students and those from the Bannerman Road gang get to vote who they want out."
All of the others were whispering about who to vote out. Very soon, the scores were in. "The person voted out is…" Headmaster Grimm said.
