Hey, guys another chapter for you all :) So sorry for the delay but I hope you can bear with me. I also wanted to say thank you to all the awesome Reviews and kicks in the ass I get from you, it motivates me... so THANK YOU!


As Rachel and Blaine walked through the corridors of the Dalton Academy the thing happened that Rachel had predicted. Heads turned at the sight of her, a lot of heads. They even saw a boy who, because he stared at her too long, ran into a wall. There we can see again, what abstinence and no contact with females of the same age as them can do.

Rachel could not complain because she liked the attention that was given to her, even more so because they could walk through the halls of a school without getting slushied. Wasn't life beautiful? It could only be because there was a no bullying policy at this school. In Rachel's opinion, this should also be introduced at McKinley. But whether they would accept it is an entirely different matter.

Blaine on the other hand, found the many hungry glances that were thrown at Rachel, not so great. If Finn was given knowledge of that, Blaine would be in trouble. Moreover, if he was able to talk himself out of that, he did not know. But it was great to be greeted by all his old friends and to see familiar faces. How he had missed these halls. Dalton gave someone a very different feeling than McKinley and that was the special thing about his old school. He had really missed everything.

As both slowly approached the rehearsal room, they could already hear how the Warblers began to sing, even if they were a few meters away. With a few steps, they were both standing in the door to the practice room and were greeted with smiling faces. Rachel had to admit that these guys didn't sound that bad.

Oooh, Oooh

The boys began to sing together and harmonize perfectly.

Uptown girl

A black-haired boy standing in front of a blonde and an African-American, took over the first solo. His name was Nick, if Rachel could remember correctly. But she wasn't that interested in his name, more so in his talent.

Uptown She's been living in her world
I bet she never had a backstreet guy
I bet her momma never told her why

His voice was good, that much Rachel must confess and he could dance well, but the technique with which he sang was not perfect.

I'm gonna try for an uptown girl

The other guys began to dance with him and were making a big show out of it. While watching them, a handsome boy catches Rachel's eye, and she means very handsome one. He has brown hair and bright blue eyes, in which she could drown. And then his body ... he clearly did sports. Of course, she would never admit that she found him good looking because she had after all her Finn, although she couldn't remember the color of her boyfriends eyes right now, as the strange boy stood up and smirked at them both.

White She's been living in her bred world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown to
That's what I am

And when she knows what
She wants from her time
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind

The Warblers continued to sing and dance in harmony together. While the good-looking guy made his way over to Rachel and Blaine and began to sing. He threw a cheeky grin in Rachel's direction, and she felt like she was hit with a bolt.

She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because I'm in love with at

Rachel could not resist to give a tiny smile in his direction as she realized that he could sing well. He could sing very well, and if she was honest with herself, he even could sing better than Finn. But she wasn't honest with herself in that aspect. Finn was the only one for her. That didn't mean that she wouldn't be gladly pulled by him, with Blaine, to the other Warblers and dance with them. And she did. She could hardly believe how much fun she had.

Uptown girl

Nick began to sing again and surprised Rachel with a kiss on the hand.

You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She's got a choice

Rachel stepped away from the Warblers and positioned herself in the doorway again to admire more of the show. She could now admit freely that the Warblers were good, really good. The New Directions had the work cut out for them.

Oooh ...

Rachel noticed at this point how Nick threw the others a glance and then looked back at her. With a laugh she noticed, how the Warblers approached her and Nick began to sing to her. He then led her with the others out into the corridor.

Uptown girl
You know I can not afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
And then I'll win

At this point, all the Warblers had put themselves into a line and Nick showed her a cross-over step, that she should imitate. She did this and walked past the Warblers.

And when she's walking
She's looking so fine

Suddenly the unknown pretty boy was standing in front of her and began to circle her while singing. She could only smile at him and he threw her a smirk back.

And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine

After the unknown pretty-boy, a brown-haired guy stepped before her, she believed he was called Thad, and tried to impress her with his muscles. Rachel could only laugh again. The guys were all so sweet. If she did not have her Finn, she would have gladly went with one of them on a date, but since that was not the case ... Finn was after all her future.

She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love with an

The boys had now encircled her and each of them grinned, smiled and winked at her. Here, Nick's voice was clearly the most prominent.

Uptown girl
White She's been living in her bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can

Thad took over the next line and took her hand in his own to pull her back with him into the rehearsal room.

And now she's looking for a downtown to

After she reentered the room, Nick came to her side and took her hand from Thad in his and sang again.

That's what I am

All Warblers united again and made a circle, whereas the stranger was doing some impressive dance moves on display. Rachel was beginning to wonder what more he could do. Because her Finn could definitely not dance that good. But her Finn could sing!

Oooh ...

After the brief dance moves battle, Rachel and Blaine went over to a table to enjoy the rest of the Warblers performance. Nick had apparently taken a solo part again.

Uptown girl
She's my uptown girl
Do not you know I'm in love
With an uptown girl

My uptown girl
Do not you know I'm in love
With an uptown girl

When the song ended, Rachel and Blaine could not help themselves but to clap. After that, Rachel watched with a small smile how Blaine jumped up to greet his former teammates. He rushed straight up to Nick and locked him into a warm hug. He let a few words of praise drop. "You guys killed it, as always", laughed Blaine and was petted on the back by another guy after his hug.

The unknown boy then said to Blaine. "We sound so much better with you in the mix. Just like old times." Rachel could only nod in the background. It was true. The Warblers with Blaine would have an even greater chance to beat the New Direction. Especially now with the beautiful stranger. It was quite fortunate that Blaine was on team Rachel.

It really dawned on Rachel now how much work she had to do. The New Directions have to be better, stronger and more intense. Only then, could they be the very best and stomp the Dalton boys into the ground. And they would stomp, Rachel was sure of that. Even if she would have to become more unpopular then she is now, because she would become their drill coach, then she was willing to take her chances. Nothing would stand in Rachel way of obtaining victory.

Blaine looked after the compliment a little embarrassed to the floor and replied with a quiet "Good point." He was also aware that they still sounded as good as ever together. Hence, the unknown guy tried to persuade Blaine again. "Is it sure that you won't return triumphal back to Dalton? " Rachel could only lift an eyebrow at that and shake her head at his stupidity. Blaine would of course not do that, if he could be with her in a team. She was after all the Rachel Berry.

"Please," the stranger tried again desperately. Rachel gave a snort and met the gaze of the beautiful stranger. He had heard her, it seems, because he lifted an eyebrow and smirked at her again. Rachel narrowed her eyes as she saw that and raised her nose into the air. No one made fun of her.

Blaine quickly fixed their mistake and explained why he was really here. "Actually, I'm here to invite you guys to my opening night at McKinley." He pulled a few cards out of his pocket and said in an exited voice. "West Side Story." He let the cards flutter back and forth. "I reserved a whole block to just for the Warblers. It would mean the world to me if you guys would come."

Here he smiled and handed the cards to the Warblers. "We will be there," said the good-looking unknown guy. "Once a Warbler, always a Warbler, right?" All the Warblers agreed with him and stepped aside so that he could introduce himself. "Blaine Anderson," he began, giving Blaine his hand, which he gladly accepted. "Sebastian Smythe" introduced the unknown, himself.

Rachel smiled slightly as she finally knew what the stranger was called. Moreover, the name, so she had to admit, was fitting for him. It had something charismatic and a sexy ring to it. Continuing to listen to the conversation between them, Rachel looked from Blaine to Sebastian and so on.

"Hi, are you a freshman?" Blaine asked the one question that was bothering him. He had never seen Sebastian here and wondered why. "Do I look like a freshman?" Sebastian posed a trick question, at which Blaine stuttered and ultimately failed. At that, Rachel made a noise and went from the table to both guys. A quick look throwing at Blaine, Rachel spoke. "Now, on this question there can be two answers, if you so will," she began, looking into the eyes of Sebastian.

"And who, if I may ask, is the young lady who can give me the answers?" He arrogantly asked with a raised eyebrow. Rachel could only think, what an ass he was to be so arrogant to talk to her like that. Talent or not. No one should talk like that to her. Not even Jesse had dared. Preventing Rachel from a sarcastic answer, Blaine introduced her to the rest of the Warblers. "This is my Maria. Rachel Berry. "

Rachel could not help but grin as she saw the shocked faces of the Warblers. So everyone had heard of her. Except maybe one. Sebastian. Because his face was completely emotionless and Rachel could therefore not say if he knew who she was. "Never heard of you," Sebastian finally replied to her silent question, shocking not only her, but also the Warblers. "But Sebastian," Thad began. "This is Rachel Berry. The Rachel Berry. How can you have never heard of her?" Rachel got a little red at this statement because no one had ever said something like that of her.

Sebastian only shrugged his shoulders in response and stared at her with a raised eyebrow. Only now, she realized that he was waiting for her answers. Rachel got an idea at that. With a cheeky grin, she turned back to Sebastian and answered. "The one that does not know who I am, wouldn't care what my answers are, if he even would understand them at all because he has clearly not that much brain capacity."

He toke one step in her direction at her response and leaned down to her, until he could whisper into the ear. He was so close that she could feel his hot breath on her face. His breath smelled like mint and he was wearing a masculine cologne, that much she could smell. It would definitely interest her if she would not be with Finn and Smythe wouldn't be such an ass. Mint always had this effect on her. "I know exactly who you are," he began in a soft and gentle voice. "A hobbit, that tries to be an intolerable copy of Barbra Streisand."

Rachel's eyes widened at these accusations and she immediately spat back. "And what are you? An oversized chipmunk?" Sebastian just laughed in her face and turned back to Blaine. "You're a legend at Dalton, Blaine. Although, I never knew who this Blaine guy is, but rumors had it that he is sex on a stick and can sang like a dream," said Sebastian and tried to get into Blaine's good graces.

Rachel could not believe what she was hearing, so she turned Sebastian so that he was looking at her. "Listen, mister ...", while saying that, she pushed her finger into his chest. "Blaine has a boyfriend so you can stop with your miserable attempts at flirting. Because that will be all, this will ever be. Attempts." After that she turned to Blaine and said to him, "Come on we are going. We have what we wanted."

Blaine eventually followed Rachel, with a raised eyebrow, out of the door and threw a "Bye, guys" behind his back. He had absolutely no idea what had gotten into Rachel, but he would get some answers. Unfortunately, he could only reach her at his car. Man, she was fast for someone so small.

"Rachel, what was that?" asked Blaine, when he had finally caught up. Rachel let out an angry sigh and looked at him incredulously. She could not believe that Smythe had dared. How could he! "Did you not notice anything?" She asked therefore furious. Blaine looked at her blankly, which made her only angrier. "He called me a hobbit and a horrible imitation of Barbra! Barbra, Blaine," she snapped at him, and paced up and down.

With a shake of his head Blaine asked "Who, Rach?" Rachel could only cry out and point her finger back to Dalton. "Smythe," she cried indignantly. She could not believe that she was called a cheap imitation of Barbra. She knew she would never be like Barbra. You could not imitate Barbra. She was unique, like Rachel herself. But that does not meant that she was horrible or cheap, or whatever! She had talent! How dare he? She would show him. He should prepare himself for anything. How could she find him attractive at first...

Blaine could not believe that Sebastian would do such a thing. He seemed so nice ... "He has certainly not meant it in that way, Rach." He attempted to calm her, but she could only make an incredulous noise and get into the car.

Drumming her fingers on the window, she threw a glance at Blaine. He moved quickly to the other side of the car and got in himself, to let her not wait any longer.

The ride back to Lima was quiet, at which Blaine could only make imaginary air leaps, because apparently the subject of Sebastian had Rachel that much irritated that she forgot about his problems with Kurt.

At Dalton, Sebastian Smythe was explaining to his fellow Warblers that he certainly had heard from Rachel Berry. After all, you had to know whom you will win against. Moreover, he wanted to unsettle Berry, she had ultimately an ego that could rival with his.


So, I really hoped you enjoyed it :) And then I wanted to say some things... YEAH Sebastian is finally here ! Then I wanted to say that I am sooo sad Glee has ended and without Sebastian :/ But I was so realived when Rachel got with Jesse (I always liked him over Finn) and I really didn't see her until the end with Sam. I was a bit disappointed that they did not show what happened to the other characters. I would have liked to see what would have happened with the Warblers. And I freaking hate it that they havn't given us the name of the new head Warbler guy because I found him amazing... Just saying. End of that :D
