This is part 9 everyone!
So this is where we left off, Ms. Rezenick going on and on about how mad she was from all of this. "-I'm gonna go give Brenagann a piece of my mind and while I do I just want you guys to start cleaning up or something around here." she said as she drove quickly out of the room. Stella stood up. "She can't make us clean!" she exclaimed. "It's cruel and unusual punishment!" "Welcome to high school." Charlie mumbled. Everyone but Charlie stood up and began to clean. In the middle of the room, there was a bucket collecting leaking water from the ceiling. It seemed to have some sort of rhythm. "This school stinks." Stella growled. "Can you guys just do what Ms. Rezenick asked you?" asked Mo. "I'm not getting another detention because of you people." Soon, everyone got to cleaning, except Charlie. He just sat, and began tapping his tires on the desk, to the rhythm of the water droplets. Soon, Wen caught on and begin tossing bells. Then, Mo began spraying water to the rhythm too, as Stella began honking her horn. Then, Charlie got up and tapped his drum sticks on the desks. Olivia looked around in wonder. Then Mo got a cello and began playing. Soon, Wen got a xylophone and played that, before switching to a piano. Stella got a guitar and began playing too. Then. Olivia began to sing. They played their song happily, and in rhythm, as if it had been a planned performance. Soon, they began playing so well, they didn't even notice when Ms. Rezenick came back into the room and stared in shock. Then, they were done. "That was so cool!" Stella exclaimed. Then, she noticed Ms. Rezenick, and so did everyone else. Then Mo panicked. "I'm really sorry, we just started to, um-" Then she rushed back to her desk. Ms. Rezenick began pointing at everyone. "Shhh! Shhh!" she exclaimed as everyone tried to explain. 'Let me think, let me think." she said. Then she turned to Olivia. "You," she said. "Yeah, I'm just gonna, uh," she dashed for her desk with Ms. Rezenick following her. "Olivia," she began. "YOU, have a beautiful voice ah!" Then she started towards everyone else. "Your band, it's a gift!" she exclaimed. "We're not a band." Stella said. "We don't even, know each other." Charlie added. "You were meant to play together!" Ms. Rezenick exclaimed. "It's-it's destiny!" Everyone just ignored her and went back to their seats. "Oh come on!" Ms. Rezenick exclaimed. "You don't have a moment like that and just ignore it!" she turned towards the door. "They, they, they need to hear you! Sure that'll show Brenagann." she said, laughing. Then she paused. "That will show Brenagann….." she repeated. "Ah!" she yelled, shocking everyone. "Oh, oh that's it! Rising Star! Rising Star!" "Rising what?"
Stella asked. "Rising Star." Olivia said. "It's a town competition." Mo said, sighing. "Winner gets a record deal." "And some serious popularity." Charlie added. "Making tomorrow's stars today…" he sang . "Just think, you guys, you can show everyone around here that sports isn't the only thing that matters! So," she began with a weird laugh. "What do you think?" she asked Stella. "You in?" "Pass." replied Stella. "What?" Ms. Rezenick asked, shocked. "It's ridiculous!" Stella exclaimed. "Ok." Ms. Rezenick said, turning to Mo. "I really can't." Mo replied. "Between my AP classes and violin lessons, no way." Then, Ms. Rezenick went over to Charlie. "Yeah, uh, I got-stuff." he replied pathetically. "Stuff." Ms. Reznick replied, irritated. "Alright then," she began, heading over to Olivia. "What about you, Ms. Olivia?" "I don't sing." Olivia replied. "Really, well we just heard you sing." Ms. Rezenick replied. "Yeah, but that wasn't real, I mean, on stage, I can't do that." Olivia said. "Oh sure you can!" Ms. Rezenick exclaimed. "No, trust me, it wouldn't be pretty!" Olivia exclaimed. "The last time I performed on stage was my 1st grade recital, and 5 minutes into "Baa baa black sheep" I threw up on Mikey Nickel." Wen laughed. "Yeah I remember that." he said. "That was hilarious." "No, it was humiliating." Olivia retorted. "Sorry, I can't." she told Ms. Rezenick. "Well, I guess that leaves me out." Wen said. "You can't really enter a competition with one man in the band. You know, unless you're thinking of a solo career. Which I'd be happy to consider…." "Guys, Mudslide Crush is entering. We wouldn't have a shot." "He's right." Mo said. "They're amazing." "They're not that amazing." Charlie muttered. "Well, if we don't stand a chance against these Mudslide guys then, why bother right?" Stella asked. "Because you said it yourself." Ms. Rezenick said. "You deserve to be heard." Then everyone else looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
