Chapter 2

UPDATE! Ok so quick recap of the last chapter- So Rachel leaves glee and McKinley High for good.

Sue Sylvester Reveals to being the so called "DIVA's" Aunt/God Mother and has declared war -Wahhaaahaahahah Watch out N.D. you have crossed the line. - SHOCKER!

and and and Brittany has also left as Rachel was once her best friend and also revealed that Rachel was in love with the Queen Bee / Ice Queen / HBIC Quinn Fabray - well that was random but ok.

Any who - what the hell will New Directions Do? What will Quinn Do? And where the hell has Rachel gone and will Brittany find her? Where will Brittany go? What happened that made Rachel's dads leave her - Hmmm - so many questions -

Well stay tuned and you shall find out ;)

Rachel walked out of William McKinley High School and took off to her new home. She has everything planned and sorted. As Brittany had said they both had grades and qualifications that granted them their High School Diplomas and Early admission {Full Scholarship} in to 10 Universities.

Now know that no one really knew who she truly was, everyone would assume she has gone to New York to pursue her Broadway Dreams. But in all honesty Broadway was never her dream. It was just a distraction so people didn't come to close to her, all part of her diva "Act". No Rachel has always had secret passion and dream, and that is to become a Doctor, a Surgeon. So she could help save lives. Music and acting where always just an exaggerated hobby.

So, because she has technically already graduated High School [before she left the school she picked up her Diploma from Figgins] she has decided to start Med School as one of the Universities she was aiming for accepted her. UWSM in Seattle.

After 2 days of being on the road she finally arrived in Seattle. She got out of her car and looked up at the house she was going to call home from now on. It was a 2 story house she had bought with the money that her fathers' left her. With 4 bedrooms (1 master bedroom with a in-suit bath) and 1 main bathroom, modern kitchen, living room, basement and laundry room and the house came with the furniture. She got her things from her car and went in to her new home.

The neighbor's had noticed that a new person has arrived in the vacant house next door.

Meredith and Amelia had just pulled into the driveway of the house and saw that they had a new neighbor and decided to go welcome them into the neighborhood. They both walked up to the front door of Rachel's house and Amelia rang the doorbell. After a few seconds the door opens and revealed a teenage girl who had a curious expression on her face.

"Hi I'm Meredith and this is Amelia. We are your neighbors." Meredith said with her hand held out

"Hello I'm Rachel. It's nice to meet you guys" Rachel shook both their hands. "Would you like to come in?"

"Sure it'll be nice to get to know our neighbor" Amelia replied

They all went in to the house and went to the kitchen and settled on to the bar stools while Rachel made coffee.

"I am sorry I just moved in so I still have to get some shopping done so all I have it coffee. I hope you don't mind?" Rachel said to them

"Yeah that's fine no problem" said Meredith

"So where are your parents I didn't see them with you in your car" asked Amelia

"Ah, that's because I don't have parents." Rachel told them.

"Don't have parents? What do you mean?" Meredith asked them added "sorry I don't mean to pry just…" she trailed off when Rachel held up a hand to stop her.

"It's alright Meredith, I don't mind" Rachel said with a half-smile.

"my fathers' – yes I had 2 gay dads – they left me a long time ago and I never heard from them in years but just last month when I turned 16 they sent me emancipation papers to set me free from them or them from me ..whatever. So yes I don't have parents. They left me with a hell lot of money and I moved here from Ohio for a fresh start so I used some of the money and bought this place." Rachel told them

"wow. Sorry to say but they a total douche-bags" Amelia said

Rachel laughed "yes yes they are. But I am fine. I have been living by myself since I was 12, so its no big deal."

"SINCE YOU WERE 12!?" Meredith exclaimed "That's just ridiculous!"

"Yeah that's …wow.. I don't know what to say" Amelia added

Rachel set 2 mugs of coffee on the counter for them and made one for herself

"Yeah well, there isn't much to say really. I am used to being alone."

"so will you be starting school here or something?" Meredith asked

"Yup, I start next week at UWSM" stated Rachel casually

Both Meredith's and Amelia's Eyes bugged out and the coffee that they sipped came fly out of their mouths. And Rachel couldn't stop the laughter the bubble out of her by their reactions.

"Did you just say that you will be starting at University of Washington School of Medicine!?" Amelia exclaimed and Rachel just nodded her response

"What … How..?" Meredith tried asking

"I had grades and qualifications that gave me a high school graduate diploma early and I have been accepted into 10 different Universities across USA with early admission and full scholarship. So I left high school and took up med school. I have always wanted to be a Surgeon." Rachel said calmly. She should have been wary about sharing personal things to total strangers but there was something about this Amelia person that made her trust her.

This was the same with Amelia. She felt a sort of connection with Rachel but she couldn't describe it. She felt a rush of love and protection towards Rachel and this confused her.

"Man. You are must be some sort of genius" Amelia whistled and Meredith nodded her agreement

"No. Not a genius just ambitious and dedicated to achieving my goals." Rachel replied with a half-smile

"You know it's weird" Rachel said and saw looks of confusion from her neighbors "I don't really like talking about all this but for some reason I feel I can trust you" she said looking straight into Amelia's eyes. "It's your eyes" she muttered under her breath but the other two heard it.

"Hmm yeah you can trust us. And know that if you need anything, even just to talk we are here." Amelia said and Meredith nodded.

"if you don't mind me asking. You said you had 2 dads but what about your mother? And do you know why your dads abandoned you?" Meredith ask cautiously not wanting to upset the girl she added quickly "you don't have to tell us if you don't want to, I am sorry if I upset you."

Rachel laughed and then gave them both a small smile. "It's not a problem. But I will wait in telling you all of that drama. Maybe you guys could come over for dinner tonight? I have to go shopping and setup this place first and I need a shower too as I only just got here." Rachel said with a smile.

Amelia laughed so did Meredith and Rachel asked "Why are you both laughing?"

"Coz that's the most polite way that we have ever been kicked out" Meredith kept laughing

"Oh! Ha... well I do need to do those things but if you want to stay then I have no issues. Besides I would need help finding my way around as I have never been in Seattle before." Rachel replied chuckling softly.

"Well in that case I am stay right here" Amelia said with mischief written all over her face.

"I will be back in a few minutes. I have run next door and check on my husband and kids then I will be back." Meredith informed them as she walked out of the front door.

"See ya soon" both Rachel and Amelia said at the same time

"Ok so I will just go have a shower a I will be back down" Rachel told Amelia

"Ok I will just be here having another coffee" Amelia replied with a smile

Rachel walked of the kitchen and in to her bedroom. She got out of her cloths and entered the bathroom. She had forgotten that her new room wasn't soundproof and that she had left the door to her bedroom open.

Once she got into the shower she started singing "Titanium".

You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

Down stairs Amelia hears the sound of singing and the voice is entrancing. She follows the voice straight to Rachel's bedroom

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

The voice send goosebumps all over Amelia's body and shivers down Amelia's spine. She is stood rooted in the middle of Rachel's bedroom still in a trance of the most beautiful voice she has ever heard. Just then Meredith and her husband also walk into the room, also in a trance and feeling the same way as Amelia. No one say anything, they just stand there and listen.

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Rachel gets out of the shower still unaware of the audience she has in the middle of her bedroom. She continues the last few lines as she puts on a robe and walks to the bathroom coming face-to-face with three faces that have jaws dropped and wonder and awe in their eyes.

Stone-heart, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone heart loves bulletproof glass

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
