Ky: Holy Dead God and Zombie Jesus… I got reviews! So, this is a filler chapter with the first few profiles I've gotten! I really need boys though! I've also swapped Devin for Brian R, for the last profile I received, so less guys but we still need them!

By the way, mysterygirl22, dear please add a bit more to your profile before I can accept it. I said in the first chapter they had to be specific, and good sized to be considered. Thank you for the review, however, and while I like Jaime and Darren paired together I want to give people a chance to have CO for them before I pair them myself. Also, I don't much like to write Bonnie in my fiction because she left Starkid and is no longer a part of it in my mind. Again thank you, though, and I hope you add some more to your profile ^^

So, this is a filler chapter, and it's a way for me to introduce the new girls, as well as who they will be paired with! Enjoy, and keep applying! Also I kinda messed up on the last chapter, the name is "A Musical Huh?" and the chapter was "New Kids OnThe Block"… Sorry!

A Musical Huh?

Chapter Two: Welcome To The Team

"I have a bad feeling about this…" Emma said. She had a thick yellow note pad on her lap and a bright pink gel pen in one hand. Her free hand was frantically texting Joe, begging him to bring her coffee and come visit her for moral support. Olivia was smiling ruefully at her friend and shook her head, making a note on her own yellow pad about the people in the room. Her bright green ink made a stark mark on the paper and she smiled at the observations.

"Chillax, Em," Nick said with a smile. He leaned back in his director's chair and tapped his blue pen against his pad of paper, watching the line of people by the stage." I got all their names before they came in, and what they want to do for the team. The first three I'm bringing in are the best, so far. They all had really great resumes and references, and I know for sure I want them on our staff."

"All right, all right," Emma sighed, having won the argument with Joe- via text –and happy now that he had promised to bring her a Double Chocolate Mocha and Lauren as entertainment." Bring the first one in, then."

"Her name is Hannah," Nick said reading off of a printed resume," She moved here after living in London and is a dance major. She wants to choreograph the show, and has a ton of references from dance teachers and coaches who say she's more than good enough for us."

"Alright, let's talk to her," Olivia said excitedly. Nick called Hannah's name and a girl stepped forward, shorter than Olivia, so around five foot two, with wavy blonde hair pulled in a low ponytail; she wore a simple gray t shirt with stars on it over black yoga pants and dance shoes, which made Emma aware that she came prepared to work. Her big green-blue eyes were a little nervous but she smiled, waving at the trio as she moved on stage. She tripped up the stairs and Emma grinned.

"I like her already, because I totally would have done that," Emma said." So, you want to be the choreographer?"

"Yes ma'am," Hannah said shyly.

"No ma'am's here, Hannah, just Emma will do," Emma smiled," Or whatever odd nickname you can come up with. Lauren calls me Emcee, Joe calls me Vader, and Joey calls me Cupid. Even Nick here calls me Robo Girl because I'm so good with tech. Now, if you want to teach us to dance can you dance for us now? Just something easy, music or not I don't care."

"Sure, can I hook up my iPod to the speakers?" Hannah asked. Emma nodded, hopping off her own chair to grab the iPod and hook it up." Just hit the track it's on, we did a dance to that song last year. I'll just do the first minute or so, and if y'all like it, I'll keep going!"

Emma hit play and sat on the apron of the stage, off to the side as the opening notes to Jessie J's "Domino" poured through the room. Hannah fell into some quick kick and tumble moves as the first verse played through, nothing too spectacular, but good. Emma liked what she was doing, though it seemed a bit generic; then, she hit the chorus, and began a full rock-ballet medley that had even Emma wanting to join in with her. The tiny tech did a fist pump and gave Nick the thumbs up sign.

"You're in, Hannah," Emma smiled," Stick around for a while, let us get through the auditions and we'll give you a schedule and some more information."

Hannah gave a giddy giggle and nodded, heading towards the back of the theater to wait. Nick called up the next girl, and Emma returned to her seat. She crossed her legs and made a few notes about Hannah on her note pad. The next girl had long strawberry blonde hair pulled back with a pink head band so her innocent looking gray eyes were on display. She wore a flowing gray skirt with embroidered blue and pink flowers on the bottom, to match the blue tank top and pink headband. She had an innocent look about her, but Emma caught her eyes and saw something more lurking under the gray orbs.

"Hello Mirabella," Nick said with a smile," Guys, this is Mirabella Boston, she and Lauren are friends, from some chance meeting years ago, and she wants to be the costume designer. I've seen some of her designs, and she makes a lot of her clothes, not to mention she has Lo's seal of approval."

"I vote yes," Emma said immediately, surprising Olivia and Nick, but neither said anything, voting the same and telling the girl to head back with Hannah. Olivia did give Emma an odd look when the girl was gone, though, and the brunette shrugged." She seems interesting, like looks innocent, but her eyes say there's a story. I want to find it out."

"Whatever Robo Girl," Nick said. He called up another girl and smiled as she came bouncing up the stage stairs. She had long dark brown hair- much like Emma's if the girl didn't put blonde and other colors in it -with matching big brown eyes and a healthy tan. She had a healthy physique, a little curvier than some but not in a bad way. She words a pair of dark wash jeans and lime green Chucks with a bright green tank top to match. " Guys, this is Margaux Talmage, She went to Northwestern for acting, and I met her at a conference with Dylan; one of those acting seminars he always makes me go to, to get idea for new plays. Anyway, we started talking, and she's an amazing tech, like you Em. She would like to play Assistant Stage Manager for you Olivia, and I've actually done a community play with her where she ASM'ed and she was great."

"How many shows have you stage managed or assistant managed?" Olivia asked, taking notes from Nick's words. The girl took a moment to think this over, twirling the end of her hair in thought.

"I did seven in high school," Margaux said finally," And I've done nine or ten since I've been in school. Managed anyway, I've been in another three where I was assisting, as well. I'm not trying to sound cocky, but I do know what I'm doing, and I love working back stage, as well as on."

"Margaux will be a part of the chorus no matter what," Nick explained," But she was very interested in working back stage as well."

"I like her, she seems honest," Olivia said," And she'll be my assistant, so I say she's in." Emma opened her mouth but Olivia cut her off." Nope, you don't get to argue, Em."

"I was just going to say I like her shoes," Emma grumbled. Nick laughed, glancing at Emma's own bright blue Chucks, and giving Margaux direction to sit with the other girls. Before Nick could start calling some of the other named, someone barged into the theater. Emma turned in her seat to find Joe Walker stomping down towards her, a giant mocha in his hands and half the Starkid Team behind him." Oh, if I didn't love you already, you know I do now…"

"Well I like this greeting," Joe smiled. He leaned down to give Emma her coffee but she grabbed the collar of his white polo shirt and yanked him down for a hot, hard, kiss instead. The room- those trying out or on the team –shot out cat calls and wolf whistles of all kinds and Emma smirked against his lips." Damn… I like that greeting even better…"

"You brought me coffee and friends," Emma said taking her drink and taking a huge gulp of it." You think that was good, wait until you get great thank you sex, later."

This last part was said so only Joe could hear and he gave a huge grin.

"Hey Nick how much longer are you here?" Joe asked.

"About an hour or two, why?"

"Because I've got a date with low music and my bedroom," Joe said with a cat-who-ate-the-canary grin. Nick shook his head and called out to another girl while Emma looked to see who was sitting in the row behind them, from the Team. Dylan and Lauren had tagged along, as well as Brian R, Joey- who was in town with Darren for a few months –and Joe Moses. Lauren had sat herself beside Mirabella and Margaux, the former seeming to know her pretty well. Dylan sat on Margaux's other side, trying to have a conversation but kept tripping over her words and making the blonde man smile. Brian and Joe-Mo were sitting beside Joey, studying some of the other contestants, and talking to Hannah, asking her about her ideas for dances and such. The girls picked, so far, seemed to be getting along great with the other team members.

"Okay, next up is Anne Bright," Nick read off," She's friends with some of us because we met at the University of Chicago, through classes and such. She wants to be prop master, and has done so on a few shows at the University."

The girl stepped up before the group, a smile on her face, and waved at some of the team she knew. She had lightly curled brown hair light brown eyes and medium skin tone; she stood a little taller than Olivia and had a nice curvy build to her. She wore a tallow tank top and black skinny jeans over a pair of white flats, with her hair tied up in into a high pony tail.

"Well Nick has practically sealed you with his approval stamp," Emma said," And if I hear Brian and Dylan whisper 'LET HER IN' to me one more time, I'm going to stick them with my pen. You can join the group, Anne."

"Thanks!" Anne smiled brightly, sitting herself on Brian's other side, saying hi to the other boys as well. Emma glanced down at her notes, an hour later, and sighed, having not yet found a pianist, which was her goal of the day before leaving to return tomorrow for more try outs.

"Can't we have just one girl who can play well?" Emma asked, her head no on Joe's shoulder because she had made him move up to be her pillow. As if to answer her prayer, a girl stepped onstage, and began to play a beautiful mash up of "Night Surgeon" from Repo! The Genetic Opera, and "Epiphany" from Sweeney Todd. Emma sat up right and studied the girl, her eyes alight in hope. This girl had dark hair- nearly black –and mint green eyes against light skin. She had a dancer's build and wore dance shoes, black yoga pants and a red tank top. Her hair was pulled back in a braid, giving Emma the impression she was all business, and talented." I love it, I want her, now."

"We don't even know her-"

"Nicholas Lang, I will beat you with a fish if you don't let me have her," Emma cut in. Nick winced and nodded giving Joe a hopeless look, which was only returned with a shrug.

"What's your name, miss?" Nick asked the girl. She smiled at him and brushed some stray strands of hair back from her face.

"Charlotte," She said softly.

"Awesome, welcome to the team, Emma demanded I take you," Nick said," She threatened me with a fish slap, so I hope she chose right."

"I never chose wrong," Emma cut in. Nick was just sending everyone else home, saying to come back the next day for part two of the interviews, when a boy came slamming into the theater, on his phone. He had shaggy brown hair and big blue eyes against light skin; he was tall about medium build and height, somewhere between Joe W and Joey.

"Tim I love you but I really don't give a rat's furry ass about Celina and what company she's seeing," The boy cried into the phone," I'm late for an audition that I've been waiting to get for ages, and you're bugging me!"

"I like him," Emma said sitting up onto her knees to see the boy too," Can I have him too, Nick?"

"Are you going to threaten me with a fish again?"

"I'll think about it," Emma said still studying the boy who had hung up and was blushing now that he saw everyone staring at him." Oh! I know you! You're piano boy with the twin brother who Joe told me was good at playing but not singing!" She turned towards Nick." I want him as Music Director, now or fish slap."

"Joe, how do you live with her?" Nick asked, exhaustedly.

"Lots and lots of caffeine," Joe said," And love, I get lots of love too… But rule number one with Emma is she always wins, even when she doesn't know she does."

"So, he's in," Nick said half questioning, and half answering.

"He's in," Emma said defiantly. She turned towards the boy who had a confused look on his face." Alright Keys, you're in! I'm making you my Music Manager, which means you're in charge of making sure all the music is in order and sounds right. You'll also be working with the pianist, Charlotte and making sure the scores are right and the singers are sounding good. Sound good?"

"Sounds like the easiest audition I've ever had," He said with a grin," I'm Justin, by the way, but you can call me Keys if you want… You're Emma, Joe's girl, right?"

"That would be me."

"You're the one they picked up last year before Leaky right?"

"One and the same."

"And the one Joe's been thinking of-"

"So! Justin!" Joe cut in, his ears red," Why don't you help me hand out music, scripts, and the rehearsal schedule!"

Emma was confused about what the boy had been trying to say, but brushed it off, making notes of her new dream team techies, on her bright yellow paper. Today had been a good day.
