Whole Story in Gabi's POV
Last Chapter:
"Once again thanks for coming out. It will be great." She slowly got off the platform and walked towards center stage in her beautiful dress. The screams just got louder. In a second Olivia ran on the stage screaming which caused the audience to laugh.
"Gabi. Did you know the Jo Bros are back there?" She asked. Gabriella nodded her head.
"Olivia say hi to the crowd." Gabriella said pointing to the audience.
"Hi." Olivia said meekly. Nick Jonas walked onto the stage.
"Come on Olivia. Chad wants you." He said. Olivia nodded waved to the stage and ran off.
"We got one happy camper." The audience laughed again.

This Chapter: In No One's POV
Everything was going good for Gabriella. Everything was running just fine. Up next to present was Troy, Sharpay and Taylor. Before hand Troy had huddled all his and Gabriella's family backstage saying he had a surprise. They all slowly walked onto the stage.
"Now I have a surprise for everyone. For over the past 20 years a family has been at through tough times. I couple weeks ago someone contacted me saying that they could bring this family back to completeness. I would like to introduce. Ladies?" Troy said handing Taylor and Sharpay eacha card. They read off of it.
"Let us introduce singing her on song " I wonder", Ms. Allison Montez." They both said with wide open eyes. They all walked off stage as she walked on to it. The music started.
Sometimes I think about you
Wonder if you're out there somewhere thinking bout me
And would you even recognize
The woman that your little girl has grown up to be
Cause I look in the mirror and all I see
Are your brown eyes looking back at me
They're the only thing you ever gave to me at all
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California
There's sunny skies as far I can see
If you ever come back home to Carolina
I wonder what you'd say to me
I think about how it ain't fair
That you weren't there to braid my hair
Like mothers do
You weren't around to cheer me on
Help me dress for my high school prom
Like mothers do
Did you think I didn't need you here
To hold my hand
To dry my tears
Did you even miss me through the years at all
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California
There's sunny skies as far I can see
If you ever come back home to Carolina
I wonder what you'd say to me
Forgiveness is such a simple word
But it's so hard to do when you've been hurt
Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California
And just in case you're wondering about me
From now on I won't be in Carolina
Your little girl is off
Your little girl is off
Your little girl is off to California
As she finished she started to cry. Maria ran off to the center stage and hugged her. Gabriella who was in Troy's arm turned to look at him. She mouthed "thank you."
"No problem. Go." He said kissing her forehead. She nodded and ran and hugged the two crying women. Richard, T.J. and Cameron all looked at Troy shocked and the man- hugged him.
The curtain fell and the women slowly walked off stage.
"Hi daddy." Allison said hugging her dad. She was basically an exact replica of Gabriella but with a little lighter brown hair that was naturally straight.
She then hugged both of her brothers and the hugged Troy.
"Thank you Troy." Maria said hugging him.
"It is okay. I was just trying to do the right thing." He said.
"Don't ever let him go Gabriella. He is a good guy." Allison said. They all laughed.
Later on the last act was getting ready to come on. Lauren and Olivia walked onto the stage.
"I hope you all had fun and have donated. I want you all to know that Child Abuse is a horrible thing. In to many cases an innocent child is beaten to death. If death is not the result than the child has to go through the rest of their life with the physical and emotional scars the will forever haunt them. One donation can help save an innocent childs life and can take an abuser of the streets." Lauren said. Everyone clapped.
"Now for the final act. Singing her brand new song that no one has heard head Ms. Gabriella Montez singing Concrete Angels." The audience clapped again.
She walks to school with the lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holdin' back
Wearin' the same dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen and lace
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burden of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel
Somebody cries in the middle of the night
The neighbors hear, but they turn out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When morning comes it'll be too late
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel
A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel
As she finished the song the audience was at their feet appluding. She waved to everyone.
"Thank you for coming out. And please donate." Gabriella said. In a quieter voice she said, "That was for you Sarah."
She looked around in the audience. Each one of them had a tear in there eye. She wrapped her hands around herself and sighed. She would make this work! She would make this right!
