What up, peeps? Alright, so here's Chapter 11! Sorry that i didn't label the last chapter, if you're wondering what it was called, it was . . . ya know what, I'll just fix it later. Anywho, I decided to make these next two chapters parters, so don't scream at me once you reach the end. As well as that will go, yeah, if it seemed like forever since i updated, I'm sorry 'cause I had another Unit Test in math today, and even though I have a B, it's basically border-lining it, so . . . yeah. Enough with school. Enjoy!


Korra's POV

Once again, we had a blast during the weekend. I think my personal favorite was going to the massive indoor water-park a little closer to City Square. My dad said I could invite to a maximum of two friends, so asked Mako and Bolin, who gladly said yes, but then there was still Asami, so we had to beg my father to let her come. One hour of pleading later, he finally gave in and let me invite her. They stayed at my place on Saturday since we were leaving on Sunday at 10:00 after breakfast.

"So, what are we supposed to do about the enrollment to the competition?" I asked once we got our sleeping bags on the floor in my room.

"I guess we can just drop by Scarlet Note on Monday since we have no school," Mako suggested.

"I guess, but how are we gonna get there?" Asami asked.

"I always take a bike ride past the place. When we pass by, we can talk with Butahka and sign up," I said.

"You, know, that's not a bad idea. Let's sleep on it. We'll figure it out after breakfast," Bolin said as he yawned.

"Tired already?" Asami and I asked in unison.

"Yeah, he was playing his butt off in a basketball game earlier, so if he's sleeping, how 'bout we hit the sack, too?" Mako asked. We nodded and within minutes, we were fast asleep.


Korra's POV

I haven't had this much fun in ages! The water park was called "Crystal Cove" and let me tell you this; that place is AWESOME! It's got super fast and high slides, diving boards, three pools, and a snack bar when you take breaks. Dang, that place is HUGE! My friends and I were so tired after all the playing, diving, and splashing that we fell asleep by the time we changed out to our normal clothes when we came back to my house.

It's Monday morning now, and I am edging for the next five minutes to pass. I take my bike ride at 12:00 after lunch, and the band decided to go with my idea and head on down to Scarlet Note.

Time seemed to freeze since every time I looked at the clock when it felt like two minutes it would only be 30 seconds, so I decided to head over to Asami's house. She's the left house and Mako and Bolin are in the right house. I grabbed my iPhone on the counter, stuffed it into my short pocket, and opened the garage door. My mom caught me.

"Where are you going?" she asked me as she looked up.

"I'm heading to Asami's and Then to Mako and Bolin's. I invited them to join me on my bike ride today, so I'll probably be home later than usual," I said before I stepped out.

"Alright, sweetie, but be careful!" she warned me.

"I will!" I kicked the kickstand up on my blue bike and walked next door to my left to Asami's house. When I got there, I kicked the kickstand so I wouldn't have to leave it on the ground and knocked on Asami's door. Her mother, Annabelle, opened the door and greeted me with a smile.

"Why, hello, Korra! Let me guess, are you here for Asami?" she asked me with I bright smile. I smiled back.

"Yes, I am. I invited her and boys to come with me on a bike ride," I said as I referred to my bike in the driveway. Annabelle put on an "oh" face.

"I was wondering why she was wearing leggings and a tank top when she came down for breakfast! I'll go ahead and open the garage door, I'll be right back," she said as she turned around. As she shut the door, I grabbed my bike again and stood by the door as it rose up. Asami was talking to her mom before she turned to me with her lavender bike.

"You ready to stop by the boys?" she asked me after the door shut.

"Yeah, there's no way in the world these two are gonna miss out," I said. We walked shortly to Mako and Bolin's house and, as always, the garage was open. There they were, just talking next to their bikes.

"Ready to go?" I asked from the doorway. Mako turned to me and kicked his kickstand up.

"You bet," he said. We rode down the street and down the highway until we passed our school. Scarlet Note, which I just noticed, was only two blocks away from our school. We rode into the parking lot and braked before we smashed into the bike parking. There were a few bikes here, which signaled that some students might've come to practice or something. We walked shortly to the front entrance and right when we walked in there was Butahka about to go into the main lobby. He looked up and smiled at us, obviously remembering us from Friday.

"Well, look who's here! Come to talk about the sign-ups?" he asked us. We nodded and he gestured to us to follow him to his office. We sat down in some chairs and he sat down at his desk.

"So what's this about?" he asked.

"Well, we kinda had to discuss it because if we did sign up, the rehearsals would be taking up the whole day," I started, and he nodded.

"Bad grades would be the last thing we need, but then again, not only does this sound like fun and that we would have a great time, but, we all have this . . . dream of being successful in music, and we figure that if it means that we have to win in something small, it could lead us to something bigger," I finished, adding a little bit of hand motions and shrugs as I talked. Butahka nodded and then smiled.

"Well, you have a very good point. Believe it or not, but some of the city's top-hit artists started off at about the same age as you four. They competed in the Performing Art Competition and ended up winning as one of the top three. Even though they were small, it did lead them to something bigger. And I believe that if you enter, and you get in one of the top three, you guys will be the top in best hits!" he said with enthusiasm reaching the end. He took out a fresh sign-up sheet for the band.

"I know that you guys will be a great surprise, and entertaining show. Go ahead and fill this out. I'll add you to the list. The competition will be in December, but small performances are required before time," he said as we filled out the sheet with our names, ages, mailing address, genders, and blah, blah, blah. When we were done, he gave us a sheet of the small concerts and stuff. We were cool with it, so we were dismissed. Once we walked out the door, we flipped. Out.

"I can't believe we just did that!" I said, still processing the whole thing.

"I know! But let's just hope that our parents don't find out right now. We need some time before they figure it out on their own," Mako said as we mounted our bikes. We rode home and Asami and I told our parents that we would be at Mako and Bolin's place to hang out. After that, we could not stop talking. The tricky thing was trying to change the subject every time Mako's mom or dad came out into the garage to get something. We would have to sit for a second before one of us finally thought of something, and once they closed the door, we went straight back to the topic.

According to the schedule, the first rehearsals would be on Monday-Friday from 7:00am-2:00pm and it would be like that until November 9th which was our first "concert". We didn't have a problem with it, since was basically from the time we got to school to the time we got home. Sure, their long, but it would be worth it. We decided to have a little fun and started to practice, which we haven't done in a while. We mostly just played songs from "Lemonade Mouth" and "Rags". There wasn't really anything new yet, so we went with the flow. Before we knew it, it was 5:00, and Asami and I had to head on home for dinner. We said our goodbyes and slept on it, knowing that what we did would be so worth it.


Korra's POV

You wouldn't believe how it's like in school for the band, now. One minute, all we were was a group of kids, and the next thing you know, we end up being the most popular people in school – and all because of one school dance! I'm not kidding, though. At the bus stop, people were crowding around us, complimenting us, asking if we could save a date for a party, and asking if we were taught how to play. The bus was the exact same way. School, however, was a completely different story. People were asking for autographs; go out on a date, audition for this, and tryout for that. The thing that people mostly asked is if we signed up to compete in the Performing Arts Competition. Once we said yes, that was all the school talked about for the rest of the week.

The week passed quickly and before we knew it, it was Monday – first day of rehearsal. I had to convince my mom to let me ride my bike to and from "school" so I could actually go to Scarlet Note and practice.

The practices went great. Butahka even made himself our personal tutor. I really like this guy; he's almost like a second father.

We were on our way from band rehearsal on Friday and we parked our bikes in front of my house. We walked in through the garage, but we came to an immediate stop once we saw everyone – and by everyone, we mean our parents. There were my parents, Andria and Haru Henderson, Mako and Bolin's parents, and Annabelle and Hiroshi Sato, Asami's parents.

"Hey," I said awkwardly. The mothers looked cross while the fathers were just looking at us sympathetically.

"How was school?" my mom asked us as she crossed her arms. I could feel myself and my friends get uneasy. This is not gonna be pretty.


Uh oh. What's gonna happen? You'll find out in "Busted: Part 2"! Sorry, I had to let that out. Anyways, if the chapter was short, I am sorry, I really didn't mean for it to be since it was five pages in Microsoft, so, yeah. I'll try to make the next one longer, if not, *blows raspberry* I tried.

I need a little more support, here, people. I'm still trying to decide if there's gonna be Bosami or Irosami, even if Iroh's in 9th Grade. If ya don't want that to happen and want them with an OC, review with the name, and other than that, put the pairing name, if you're voting for whatever is above this. Help!
