"Please welcome to the stage, for the final time this evening, Miss Brittany Pierce!" As the words left the man's lips the crowd erupts into a sea of noise. To venerable ears the sounds could most defiantly cause a lifetime of permanent deafness. To the most strengthened of ears the noise could at least cause some temporary damage. The appreciation and affection of an arena full of devoting fans always managed to strike a headache.

The lights dim, the music starts and stage floor rises to produce the object that fans are screaming for. She begins to sway to the growing bass line. The action causes a mist of desperation and lust to sweep the arena and lay into the walls of the building. Seconds pass and her voice is projected into every corner of the available space. All the ears in the room release a sigh of pure contentment due to the voices pitch perfect tone.

As the dancers file onto the stage a beat vibrates itself into every fibre of their beings. All at once their bodies move in sync as the song begins to speed into its chorus. Each moment produced brings with it a spark of electricity and a wave of a unique taste that spices up the atmosphere of the performance. The woman looks to be at ease in her element, under the spotlight.

As the song comes to an end there is not a sound to be heard. The dancers freeze in their final positions, the fans become too entice to react. To the woman the moment was perfect. It was as if it was spread out across an eternity but it ends all too quickly. The arena erupts into a chaos of cheers, whistles and applause. She speaks softly in to the microphone for all to hear, "Goodnight everybody, you have been an amazing audience. I am so glad that I was able to close my tour here with you guys. All my love." With that she leaves the stage and the never quieting audience once again breaks out into an epidemic of cheers.

Brittany walks off of the stage with a wide grin. The feeling she gets after completing any performance or show makes her tingle. However, finishing up a world tour brings with it relief, excitement and a little bit of sadness. Her fingers always begin to cramp, her stomach flutters and before you know it, full on tingles.

She walks to her dressing room whilst being guided by two bodyguards, aka dumb and dumber. She makes a bee line for the door after walking through; she spins around and jams it shut then pulls over its lock. Relief. However, the moment was short lived when she hears a voice behind her "Double doored dressing room Britty."

Standing in front of her was her mother with a scowl etched into the features of her face. Brittany lets out a child-like giggle and simply replies "whoops." She throws herself at the couch that is pressed up against the wall in her dressing room. Her eyes begin to drop when a sudden wave of tiredness catches up to her, "Britty, honey try not to fall asleep until we can get back to the hotel. Brittany can you hear me?" Mrs Pierce reaches out to shake her daughter but is only met by a muffled grumble in return. She sighs in defeat and begins to pack away instead whilst leaving her daughter to rest.

When Brittany finally awakens she is alone in her hotel room. Looking at the clock the time reads 4am, next to the clock is a note that says she has to be ready by 5am for her flight. Sighing she mentally prepares herself for what would come later in the day; interviews, cameras, a long boring flight and even more cameras. The joys of being famous.

She picks herself off of the bed and makes her way towards the bathroom. On arrival she turns the shower on and proceeds to strip off of her clothes that her mother must have changed her into. After a hard day physically the sensation of being blanketed by cooling water is a dream come true for Brittany.

She leans forwards and rests her head against the wall in front. When she allows her eyes to slip closed she is met by images of the crowd from the arena. When she was younger she could only imagine the crowds, the cheers. She would spend every waking minute hoping that one day her dreams would come true and she'd be performing on a big stage in front of thousands of fans. Little did she know back then that her dreams would come true but she would miss out on the normal aspects of a young adult's life like school, friends and young love. However, Brittany wasn't in any way regretful or resentful of her choice to have a career as a teen but she just wished she had a chance to experience all the things that she's missed out on growing up.

After getting out of the shower and putting on some cloths Brittany had just enough time left to pack away her things. This was the last hotel that she would be staying in for a while so a wave of sadness washed over her. As she was zipping up her bag there was a knock at the door, when she opened it she was met by her dad. "Hey kiddo, you all packed up?"

Brittany's dad is a 6ft man with sandy blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes that with one look got her mother to fall in love with him. He parallels from Brittany's mother quiet substantially as she has naturally very curly, brunette hair with hazel eyes. Both of her parents are very attractive people but secretly Brittany has always been glad that she resembled her dad more.

"Hi dad, yeah my bag is on my bed. Do you mind getting it whilst I make the final sweep?" In response he nodded at Brittany and walked past her towards the bed. It had become a tradition of sorts for Brittany to make one final check around the room to ensure she hadn't left anything behind after forgetting her phone last year. Luckily for her she noticed its absence before she was too far away to get it back.

Brittany and her father made their way to the lobby where her mother and bodyguards were waiting. Outside the hotel was an army of screaming fans and a number of the police force to control them. They made their way to the car whilst keeping a tight border around Brittany. Once they arrived they locked the doors and buckled up so they could make their way to the airport and get their flight back to the USA.

Mid-flight Brittany's parents turn to face her with serious faces. "Brittany we have something to tell you. You have been in the media spotlight since you were fourteen and we are so proud of the way you have matured yourself into the situation. But now your turning seventeen and you have yet to experience a normal life. Even before the fame you were being home schooled so you could train and practice all day long." As Brittany's mother spoke she reached out to take hold of Brittany's hand as she was unsure of how Brittany was going to react. "Brittany, honey what your mother is trying to get at is that for the next year your mother and I have decided you need to live a normal life. Well as normal as it can be given that you're a global superstar. So we are moving to Lima, Ohio. For the next year there will be no more albums, tours or interviews because you're going to high school."

And that's the moment when everything changed for Brittany S. Pierce.
