Chapter Four.

Quote of the day:-

"Music in the soul can be heard by the universe." - Lao Tzu

Every student of William McKinley High was situated in the gym all focusing on the makeshift stage in the middle of the room. All the members of the glee club had the pleasure of sitting on the floor in front of the stage so that they was ready to run up onto the stage when it was their turn to perform. William Schuester made his way to the middle of the stage and tapped the microphone a couple of times to get the attention of the McKinley population.

"Welcome, and thank you for coming today, so let's kick it off with our first act. Please welcome to the stage Rachel Berry." He started to clap along with everyone else then moved the microphone to the side and joined his team on the floor. The lights dimmed down and the curtains slowly started to draw. The spotlight beamed down on Rachel and the desk she was sitting at, lightly tapping her foot against the leg of the table with a bored expression on her face. She caught Jesse's eye right away. It took everything in him to keep his jaw from dropping like every other guy in the school, she was wearing the same school girl costume that Britney Spears wore in the music video for 'Hit me baby one more time' Jesse groaned as he caught sight of Rachel.

"Have I ever mentioned how much I love Britney Spears." He mumbled causing Quinn to turn her head to face him to see his expression. A ticking sound started playing in the background and she began tapping her pen against the desk rapidly. A bell rang out as she got up from her desk and started singing.

"Oh baby, baby

Someone came on stage to remove the desk, while two other female dancers joined Rachel in her hip swinging motion.

Oh baby, baby
Oh baby, baby

Two guys then joined her as the girls moved to the side and picked up some text books, continuing a dance at the sidelines.

How was I supposed to know
That something wasn't
right here
Oh
baby baby
I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me, how you want
it to be
Tell me baby

She shimmied forward as the dancing became more intense.

'Cause I need to know now what we've got

My loneliness is killing me
I must confess, I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Boy you got me blinded
Oh baby, baby
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
That's not the way I planned it
Show me, how you want it to be
Tell me baby
'Cause I need to know now what we've got

The music started to slow down as the dancers moved off and the spotlight landed on a boy who was a bit further away from Rachel, with a basketball in hand, she slowly started moving towards him as he seemed oblivious to her presence.

Oh baby, baby
Oh baby, baby
Ah, yeah, yeah
Oh baby, baby
How was I supposed to know
Oh pretty baby
I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess, that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time"

"Oh Baby you can hit me as many times as you want." Jacob Ben Israel yelled loudly. An uproar of cheering then echoed his comment.

"I'm going to ignore that comment, Thank you" Rachel quickly blew a kiss to the audience before running behind the curtains.

"As much as I don't want to, I agree completely with him." Jesse's comment resulted in Quinn giving him yet another look.

"You're such a guy"

"What? She's hot. You can't deny that you wasn't even the tiniest bit turned on by that."

She groaned at the sight of his smirk and smacked his arm before replying.

"No, I wasn't, I'm not interested in girls."

"You don't necessarily have to be interested in girls to be turned on by that"

"And I repeat, You're such a guy." Quinn quickly nudge him as she spotted Rachel coming towards them.

"Hey guys" She cheered as she sat down on the left of Jesse.

"One word. Amazing" He smiled at her as he let his gaze travel down her body, glancing at the exposed skin of her stomach and thighs.

"Thanks" She giggled, catching his actions. "Eyes up here" She motioned to her eyes, Jesse's face lit up to a light shade of red when he realised he had been caught.

"Any idea who is up next?" Quinn questioned.

"I have a feeling it's Brittany and Santana" Rachel replied as she pointed at the two mentioned teens when she noticed them get up from their spot not that far away from them, William also getting up from his spot to introduce them.

"What a great way to start a show. So next up we have Brittany Pierce and Santana Lopez" The lights slowly began to dim down. Brittany made her way from the top of the steps to the bottom as the music began, on the other side of the stage Santana stood with a stick in hand.

"All my people in the crowd
Grab a partner take it down!

It's me against the music
Uh uh
It's just me
And me
Yeah
C'mon
Hey Britney?
Are you ready?
Uh uh, are you?"

Brittany made her way to the middle of the dance floor as a group of dancers joined her on stage the began dancing in sync as Brittany began singing again.

"No one cares
It's whippin'my hair, it's pullin' my waist
To hell with stares
The sweat is drippin' all over my face
No one's there
I'm the only one dancin' up in this place
Tonight I'm here
Feel the beat of the drum, gotta keep it that bass
I'm up against the speaker, tryin' to take on the music
It's like a competition, me against the beat
I wanna get in the zone, I wanna get in the zone
If you really wanna battle, saddle up and get your rhythm
Tryin' to hit it, you could die
In a minute I'm a take a you on, I'm a take a you on
Hey, hey, hey"

Santana joined Brittany in the middle of the dance floor and challenged her to a dance off which Brittany gladly accepted.

"All my people on the floor
Let me see you dance
Let me see ya
All my people wantin' more
Let me see you dance
I wanna see ya
All my people round and round
Let me see you dance
Let me see ya
All my people in the crowd
Let me see you dance
I wanna see ya
So how would you like a friendly competition
Let's take on the song
It's you and me baby, we're the music
Time to party all night long

We're almost there
I'm feelin' it bad and I can't explain
My soul is bare
My hips are movin' at a rapid pace
Baby feel it burn
From the tip of my toes, runnin' through my veins
And now it's your turn
Let me see what you got, don't hesitate
I'm up against the speaker, tryin' to take on the music
It's like a competition, me against the beat
I wanna get in the zone, I wanna get in the zone
If you really wanna battle, saddle up and get your rhythm
Tryin' to hit it, you could die
In a minute I'm a take a you on, I'm a take a you on
Hey, hey, hey

Get on the floor, baby lose control
Just work your body and let it go
If you wanna party, just grab somebody
Hey Britney
We can dance all night long

Hey Britney, you say you wanna lose control
Come over here I got somethin' to show ya
Sexy lady, I'd rather see you bare your soul
If you think you're so hot, better show me what you got
All my people in the crowd, let me see you dance
C'mon Britney lose control, watch you take it down

Get on the floor, baby lose control
Just work your body and let it go
If you wanna party, just grab somebody
Hey Britney
We can dance all night long

All my people in the crowd, let me see you dance
C'mon Britney take it down, make the music dance
All my people round and round, party all night long
C'mon Britney lose control, watch you take it down"

The Music died down as each student in the gym raised to their feet and began cheering wildly.

"That's was great wasn't it!" William cheered into the microphone as he made his way on stage. "Thank you Santana and Brittany, We do actually have another performance from Brittany later" William announced as he looked down at the piece of paper in his hand. "So while she is having a quick costume change how about our next performance. None other than Artie Abrams." Artie was situated in the middle of the makeshift stage, he was looking around him at all the students before him. He quickly shook his head before beginning the song.

"Ooh hey, yeah"

He began wheeling around on stage, the two front wheels began to flash multicolours.

"Hush, just stop
There's nothing you can do or say, baby
I've had enough
I'm not your property as from today, baby
You might think that I won't make it on my own
But now I'm

Stronger than yesterday
Now its nothing but my way
My loneliness ain't killing me no more
I'm stronger

That I ever thought that I could be, baby
I used to go with the flow
Didn't really care bout me
You might think that I cant take it, but you're wrong
Cause now I'm Stronger than yesterday
Now its nothing but my way
My loneliness ain't killing me no more
I'm stronger

Come on, now
Oh, yeah

Here I go, on my own
I don't need nobody, better off alone
Here I go, on my own now
I don't need nobody, not anybody
Here I go, alright, here I go

Stronger than yesterday
Now its nothing but my way
My loneliness ain't killing me no more
I'm stronger"

"Amazing! Well done Artie. Simply amazing." William said into the microphone when the song had finished and everyone burst into more cheers. "Oh boy, we have a bit of a surprise for you now. Give it up for Brittany Pierce" The curtain began to raise and there stood Brittany carrying a huge snake on her shoulders, holding it's tail in one hand and it's head in the other hand, a few student gasped in shock and someone yelled 'Awesome!'.

"I know I may be young
But I've got feelings, too
And I need to do what I feel like doing
So let me go and just listen

All you people look at me like I'm a little girl
Well, did you ever think it'd be okay for me to step into this world?
Always saying; little girl don't step into the club
Well, I'm just trying to find out why 'cause dancin's what I love yeah
now watch me

Get it, get it, whooa
Get it, get it, whoooa, do you like it?
Get it, get it, whoa, it feels good"

She started body popping and thrusting into dance moves while still carrying the snake.

"I know I may come off quiet, may come off shy
But I feel like talking, feel like dancing when I see this guy
What's practical is logical, what the hell who cares?
All I know is I'm so happy when you dancing there-ere

I'm a slave for you
I cannot hold it, I cannot control it
I'm a slave for you
I won't deny hide it, I'm not trying to hide it

Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
I just wanna dance next to you
To another time and place?
Oh Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me?
Are you ready?
Leaving behind my name, my age.

Like that
Oh Yeah, yeah
now watch me

Get it get it Whooa
Get it get it Whoooa
Get it get it
[Panting] This feels good

I really wanna dance, tonight with you.
I just can't help myself
I really wanna do what you want me to.
I just feel I let myself go

I really wanna dance, tonight with you.
Wanna see you move
I really wanna do what you want me to.
Uh Uh Uh

Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
I just wanna dance next to you
To another time and place?
Oh Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me?
Are you ready?
Leaving behind my name,and my age."

She passed the snake to someone else as she began a vigorous dance session.

"I'm a slave for you. Take that, I cannot hold it; I cannot control it.
I'm a slave It just feels right for you. It feels good
I won't deny it; I'm not trying to hide it. Baby

Get it get it WHOOOA

Get it get it OOOHHHH
[Panting]

Get it get it WHOOA

[Panting]

I'm a slave for you. Here we go now
I cannot hold it; I cannot control it.
I'm a slave for you. Here we go, I won't deny, Yeah
I'm not trying to hide it.

Like that"

During Brittany's performance the rest of the members of the glee club made their way backstage to grab their costumes before racing off to the locker rooms to change.

"Where did she get that snake from?" Quinn questioned to no one in particular as she began changing into her costume. Rachel turned to her with an equally shocked expression plastered on her face and shrugged.

"God, I hate being pregnant, Nothing looks good on me" She whined as she tried to close the blazer shut over her bulging stomach.

"You look radiant Quinn, so stop complaining" Tina commented on her appearance.

"Don't worry about closing your blazer it looks fine open" Rachel said as she made her way to the door with Alma following, ready to perform.

"Wasn't that just.. Great" Miss. Pillsbury said into the microphone as she made her way onto the stage to announce the next performance. "Now up next I give you, New Directions and Vocal Adrenaline accompanied by William Schuester." A few strums of a guitar played it's way into the gym as the curtains once again rose for the last time. All the members began to spin onto the stage in a line as Brittany made her way centre stage holding onto her hat and spinning it above her head.

"Baby, can't you see
I'm calling
A guy like you should wear a warning

It's dangerous
I'm falling

There's no escape
I can't wait
I need a hit
Baby, give me it"
"You're dangerous
I'm loving it"

Rachel joined in as they made their way over to Jesse and ran their hands down his body.

"I love Britney Spears!" Jacob Ben Israel shouted as he watched them dance around stage exotically. William Schuester was back to back against Brittany now as he began singing his part.

"Too high
Can't come down
Losin' my head
Spinnin' 'round and 'round
Do you feel me now?"

All the members now began joining in on the chorus. They began dancing using their hats as props.

"With the taste of your lips I'm on a ride
You're toxic I'm slippin' under
With the taste of the poison paradise
I'm addicted to you, don't you know that you're toxic?
And I love what you do, don't you know that you're toxic?"

"It's gettin' late
To give you up"

Rachel and Brittany were now back to back, as they bent over, William made his presence behind them as he joined them in singing.
"I took a sip
From my devil's cup
Slowly, it's taking over me

Too high
Can't come down
loosing my head spinning round and round
Do you feel it now?"

All the members of the club lined up, William threw his hat from one end while Mike Chang caught it from the other end.

"With the taste of your lips I'm on a ride
You're toxic I'm slippin' under
With the taste of the poison paradise
I'm addicted to you, don't you know that you're toxic?
And I love what you do, don't you know that you're toxic?
I'm addicted to you, don't you know that you're toxic?

Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
Intoxicate me now
With your lovin' now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now
I think I'm ready now

Your toxic love, slipping under"

Somehow in the middle of the song, fighting had broken out and it spread like a wild fire across the room, everyone just copying each other, punching and kicking who ever they could.

"It's a Britney Spears sex riot" Sue Sylvester said, she turned to her right and spotted the fire alarm, she rushed over to it and set it off, letting a loud booming ringing noise to erupt into the room and setting off the sprinklers. Everyone stopped their actions and raced towards the fire exits. The glee members looked on in shock as they watched everyone rush out.

"That went well"

"This is a joke" Giselle said as she threw her hat on the floor and walked back stage, everyone else followed her towards the changing rooms also a little bit disappointed.

/

"So I know that it didn't go the way we wanted it to yesterday, but the way I see it, we can't be the best any more, we need to be better."

"I am not going through what we went through yesterday again, It was humiliating." Giselle whined from her chair at the back of the room.

"How about we just work on getting ready for regionals now?" Puck interjected.

"I have the perfect song for regionals!" Kurt said as he raced towards the front of the classroom and began scribbling the title of the song on the whiteboard. As he moved out the way to reveal the song choice everyone began cheering and nodding their head in agreement.

"So it's settled we have a song for regionals"

Watching a bit of glee for some inspiration. You have no idea how hard this chapter was to write. I have so many ideas that I want to incorporate but it's just making it fit in that I have trouble with. Also AN : I will be adding a chapter to the end of this story once it is finished stating the track list and also I will add the best and most meaningful reviews to it, to show my appreciation. Just to let you know, if you're still reading, you're going to love the next chapter. Hopefully. Please review and carry on reading. Much Love.
