Title: Lost & Found [4/?]

Brittany keeps forgetting that something she was suppose to do. What was it again? Brittberry (or Pieberry?)


Disclaimer: I own nothing. The only thing I do own is my imagination of things that will probably never ever happen. Still, a girl can dream.


There was a clue somewhere. And Sue was going to find it.

Above all, Sue Sylvester is a winner and being a winner means seeing the loser in everyone else.

This ability of hers is in fact a part of her bloodhound-ish qualities; she's been able to sniff out and hone in on any weakness at the slightest appearance. But despite the times she spent dealing with the lowly life forms known as teenagers, she couldn't quite decipher the diva's rapidly devolving behavior. Sue needed to know the motive, the cause of it all.

Lately the usually prim diva has been on edge and, although it amused her greatly, Sue needed to know why. She wanted to know whatever it was that had the girl on a first class ticket to crazy town and she just plain wanted it, period. Sue was certain that her three little Cheerios would get her what she wanted. If not then there was going to be hell to pay, most certainly for the pathetic Glee Club and her failure of Cheerios.

That is if the dwarf hadn't already done so with her more than insufferable self.

Everything converged when Sue – along with whatever wandering mouth breathers – witnessed the midget's reenactment of Carrie on one of the football Neanderthals. Combine that fascinating event along with the fact that Glee Club was going to have an impromptu meeting after school today Sue knew exactly where she was going to be.

Time to prepare for some delicious interaction with the bottom feeders. Sue smiled at the impending catastrophe that was bound to occur. She wouldn't miss it for the world.

Rounding the next corner, Sue approached the music room that the Glee Club was most definitely having their abysmal meeting in. Her hand had only just landed on the doorknob before she heard a bit of a scuffle.

"What the hell? Rabid much? You better not have given me rabies Treasure Trail!"

Ahh, the sounds of disunity. Music to my ears, Sue thought with, ironically, glee. Then with a quick twist of her hand Sue opened the door.


[Just Previously in Glee Club]

It was eerily fascinating to see Berry devolve in such a fashion; similar to knowing something bad was going to happen but watching it anyways. It was a bit morbid of everyone.

"Well," Mr Schue began unsurely. He probably would have continued on with some monologue on team work and striving past personal problems but faltered when Rachel suddenly set her sights on him when he vocalized his existence. Instead, Mr Schue just quickly closed his mouth with an audible shut as he reactively backed up into the piano that was behind him.

The next moments came as a blur when Quinn bravely – or perhaps without much thought – approached the deranged girl to no doubt insult her surprisingly even worse appearance. Quinn didn't get far in her taunts before the unexpected happened.

"What the hell?" Quinn immediately shouted before pulling her right arm protectively over her chest. "Rabid much? You better not have given me rabies Treasure Trail!"

The following reactions varied.

Puck acted first by slapping a hand down on his knee before letting out a hoot and a holler. "Damn! Berry's got some fangs!" Puck exclaimed in both excitement and, quite possibly, revere.

Kurt, who sat just in front of the other boy, simply worked his jaw soundlessly; unable to fully articulate on what just occurred moments ago. Not till a full minute or two later did Kurt manage to vocalize one of his many thoughts.

"Did she just –" Kurt began only for Mercedes to finish with a 'yes'. Kurt only nodded distractedly in understanding.

Next Brittany commented, almost as an afterthought, "Wow. Rachel's a biter." Luckily, only the two people closest to the girl heard.

Puck had tilted his head in thought before nodding to himself. Santana, however, snapped her head to the side, staring incredulously at her companion with the vivid intent to retort on how wrong that sounded. But then that was the moment Coach Sue Sylvester appeared. Subsequently, everything went to hell.

Or, at least, it was going to.

"Hello there my minions!" Sue proclaimed ecstatically as she entered the room. "Future minions," she added with a nod to the rest of the non-Cheerios.

"Sue!" Will shouted at the sudden appearance. "What…" shaking off his shock at Rachel's previous actions before continuing, "What are you doing here?"

"Well I heard through the tangled grapevine that there was an emergency meeting for your little club here. Just thought I'd come by and show my," Sue pauses momentarily before smiling, "Support". And it was true. Sue did support the dysfunction that has settled amongst them due to the diva's inability to get it together or act in normal Berry fashion.

"Well we don't need your 'support'. So please leave."

Sue's head practically swiveled to glare at the unfortunate that had the obviously misguided audacity to speak to her in such a manner.

Rachel Berry.

She never failed to provoke.

The pint-sized diva's attitude (and never lacking suspicions) didn't surprise Sue. Her courage – or possibly stupidity – was a trait that Sue would have admired if she were one of her Cheerios, but she wasn't. So she hated it.

"Rachel! You shouldn't speak to an adult like that," Mr Schue quickly chastised.

"Can it William. I don't need you to fight my battles," Sue retaliated back.

Rachel only brushed Mr Schue's comment aside and promptly stood before approaching the Cheerios coach. Sue never missed a beat. And aptly matched the girl step for step. Rachel only crossed her arms before stopping just a few feet away from the ever-conspiring teacher.

"It's quite obvious that Miss Sylvester is here for a reason," Rachel cocked an eyebrow condescendingly before continuing, "She wants something."

Sue almost smiled. If Berry didn't annoy her so much Sue might have actually wanted the girl on her Cheerios. Actually, Sue thought distractively at the remembrance of her profile on the girl.

The rest of Glee Club, however, simply watched the confrontation with bated breaths. Their captain was going toe-to-toe with the dragon lady herself; it was literally like watching David and Goliath. And just when they thought things couldn't get much worse (or weirder), it did. Someone went and uttered the words they never thought they'd hear, considering the person that just spoke and to whom it was spoken towards.

"I admire your spunk. Say, have you ever thought about joining the Cheerios?"

A collective breath was taken throughout the room at the sudden turn of events. Rachel, however, seemed to have returned to the old route of twitching her eyes before painfully griping her vastly bulging stress ball.

"I don't like you and, quite frankly, I don't trust you. So no. I don't think I'll ever be joining the Cheerios."

'Thank God' could be heard from the side and it didn't fail to sound suspiciously like Santana.

Sue only smiled before horribly voicing her supposed disappointment. "Well that's a darn shame!" The Cheerios coach suddenly leaned in close as she lowered her voice for Rachel's ears only. "But remember, sometimes you gotta work with those you hate to get what you want." Straightening herself, Sue then turned to stroll back out the way she came.

"I'll be going now William. See that your little star keeps up with that fascinating new behavior of hers. She might become a winner yet."

The door shut and everyone released the collective breath they had taken. Well, until a loud crash was heard and everyone (but Rachel) turned to see that Tina had fainted.

Puck just let out a small 'damn' in response.

A/N: Not much happens in this chapter. Just thought it'd be nice for a little update after so long. And I wanted to try to touch up a little on Sue's insight of the situation.
