Chapter 2: The Show

⌠I can▓t believe I▓m going to be on national T.V.! This is so awesome. And I get to be on TV. with my best friend! How cool is that?! Eeeeep, I▓m so nervous! I wonder who the other two contestants are.■ Lily wondered.
⌠Well whoever they are, they▓ve got no chance against you! You▓re going to rock that stage!■ Miley told her. When the girls got to the studio, they weren▓t very happy to see what greeted them.
⌠And richer,■ the mystery voices said with great glee, ⌠Ooo, tisss.■ It was, as you most likely have guessed by now, Amber and Ashley. They had just told someone off and did their signature finger touch.
⌠Oh my gosh, I hate them! How on earth did they get back here? Only crew members, the contestants and the contestants family are allowed back here!■ Lily protested.
⌠What▓s that I hear Ashley?■ Amber asked with a sassy atitude.
⌠Oh, that▓s Lily and Miley.■ Ashley answered as she smiled toward them.
⌠Why on earth would this show let a hillbilly and a skateboarder back here?! I mean, none of you two can sing! Oh well, at least people will be able to watch me sing beautifully again.■ said Amber.
Lily told Amber, ⌠Just so you know, I▓m a contestant. Yup, that▓s right.■ ⌠Yeah, you might wanna get out of the kitchen before you get burned. And burned bad!■ Miley advised.
⌠Nice come back, Miley. Where▓d you get it? The back of a candy wrapper,■ Amber told the girls, ⌠Oh and Lily, are you going to be on Singing with the Stars? Hmmm, the crew must have been really, really, really desperate.■ ⌠Oh I outta┘■ Lily started but Miley held onto Lily so that she wouldn▓t attack them.
⌠Lily, don▓t. Their not worth it.■ Miley told her. Lily calmed down a bit until Amber said, ⌠Yeah, it▓s ok Lily. We all have our little temper tantrums. Well, then again, you don▓t. You have big temper tantrums.■ Once Amber finished that sentence, they brushed their hair back at the same time, did their finger thing, giggled a bit and then strutted away.
⌠I▓ll have the last giggle once you see how well I sing. I▓m going to ⌠ooooo■ her right off the stage!■ Lily promised to herself. Lily went to her chair and the make-up people came and started on Lily▓s hair and make-up. (Lily had changed before they drove to the studio.) Miley went to a changing room and got into her Hannah outfit. ⌠We▓re on in three, two, one.■ some man told everyone. The show went pretty well. The third contestant lost and was sent out of the studio the first round. In the second round, Lily out sung Amber but Amber out sung Lily in the third round. Now it was all up to the fourth round. Miley (as Hannah) sung Bigger Than Us with Lilly and Amber.
⌠And now,■ began the announcer, ⌠ the winner by one point is Amber Addison! And taking second place will be Lily Truscott.■ ⌠Yes, I won the record deal again!■ Amber cheered.
⌠Wait, but there▓s a twist. Today and today only, the second place winner will be getting the record deal today! So congratulations to Lily Truscott! You have won a record deal with Pop Star Industries. You will begin recording a song tomorrow at 2:30pm.■ ⌠WHAT?!!!■ both Lily and Amber screeched.
⌠Yes!■ Lily yelled.
⌠No■ Amber sobbed. ⌠I was so, so close.■ ⌠Miley told ya you▓d get burned.■ Lily said with a big grin on her face. Not only id she get a record deal, but Lily also beat Amber!
⌠Congratulations Lily,■ Miley (as Hannah) told her, ⌠You deserved it!■
