To The Dark Side
What if when Quinn joined the Skanks, she wasn't alone? What if she showed Rachel, Santana and Brittany the light and they joined her. What if more people joined them? Would Glee and McKinley survive?

Chapter 14: Road to Regionals
The week that followed Santana's revenge plan were great for NM for many reasons. Firstly ND smelt like a slurry farm, making Rachel laugh a lot because Finn was avoided like he had the plague, therefore damaging his ego and self-built reputation making him, in his eyes a poor choice for all the lucky ladies in McKinley high. In Quinn's eyes is was justice for his continuous harassment of her wife.
The second reason why Santana's revenge was great was because it meant the ND choir room had to be fumigated. This was down to the smell that the concoction of hers had been released from the choir room and was making it hard for other class rooms to function. The lack of a practice room meant that ND couldn't practice their songs for Regionals, meaning that in their eyes they wouldn't be able to entertain their fans, but in everyone else's eyes they would make fools of themselves and was good in their eyes. It served them right for making the school stink. The best part however was when anyone asked Santana how she had managed to spread the concoction of hers, all she would say was that it was a secret.
Shelby was also enjoying Santana's revenge because she got to sit in a staff room everyday watching all the teachers avoid Will because he smelt like the back end of a cow. Watching Will suffer like this was great for her because she knew this man did nothing to protect her daughter from the years of bullying she had received, so it was just like Karma coming and kicking him in the ass. However one day her enjoyment was temporarily put on hold when the Principal walked into the staff room and immediately began to feel ill due to the smell. He demanded to know what the smell was and when Sue pointed him in Will's direction, Shelby fell off her chair in peals of laughter and had to be helped up by Coach Bieste. Will was sent home and told to not come back until the smell had left his body. A week later he returned and was greeted by a laughing Quinn and Rachel and a grinning Shelby. She informed him as he walked past her. "That's what happens when my group gets screwed. Make sure it doesn't happen again, or you will smell worse than you do now." After telling Will that message, Shelby strolled to the auditorium where she had drama class with both NM and ND. The lesson in itself was boring because NM kept themselves at one side of the room and ND at the other. This was due to the smell ND were still emitting.
The rest of the run up to Regionals was quiet for both ND and NM. Instead of sniping at each other, both teams realised that they had to be at one hundred percent if they were going to win and progress to Nationals in New York, which had hosted Nationals last year, where ND had gone and been embarrassed by Finn kissing Rachel, which had angered Quinn for weeks on end. One significant event to come from the run up was that Santana had started to get nervous whenever she was alone with Brittany. This caused a lot of tension in NM for weeks as they all tried to find out what was causing Santana to behave like this. They discovered why she behaved the way she had one weekend when she had whisked Brittany off to a local beach club and proposed to her. They returned to a cheerful group and were congratulated. They also discovered that during this period, Puck and Sugar had started dating as had Sam and one of their backing singers called Anna.
The week before Regionals was an easy week for McKinley High, with the school getting ready for the competition as it was the host school. That meant that classes that were not core classes were scrapped and students were made to go to their home rooms for studying and team building exercises. It was during this period that Rachel, Quinn, Brittany and Santana discovered their fates for their higher education. They had decided that they would go to Yale to study, with Rachel and Brittany studying Business and Drama respectively and Quinn and Santana studying Law and Politics. Also during these home room periods Finn tried again to win Rachel back from Quinn. Santana and Puck made sure that the rest of NM had a heads up for Finn's attempt due to Kurt overhearing Finn talk in his sleep about his plan. They decided not to let Quinn know because they wanted to see her reaction to Finn's latest stupid attempt to win Rachel's heart. His plan consisted of giving Rachel a rose a day and serenading her everytime she walked in to their home room. Well his plan would have worked had one Quinn Fabray not walked into the room before her wife and got Finn's wooing attempt. Quinn went berserk because she knew who he was really attempting to woo and it wasn't her. She marched over to Finn, stood on his feet and then head-butted him. She then grabbed him as he was falling and hissed in his ear so only he could hear. "Right Finnidiot, I have told you more times than I can count, Rachel is my wife, therefore I love her and she loves me. So I am now ordering you to leave her alone or ND won't have a lead for Regionals because I will make sure you don't make it to Regionals." She then dropped him in his chair and moved over to her and Rachel's desk and when Rachel entered the room she pulled her onto her lap, where she told her what Finn had attempted to do. Rachel just laughed and kissed Quinn square on her lips.
For the rest of the week, ND gave the members of NM a wide berth as they didn't want there to be any reason for their members not being able to compete at Regionals. What ND didn't count on was the rest of the school attacking them randomly with Slushies and other soda based beverages. Rachel and Santana's favourites were the iced tea and stale orange juice whereas Brittany and Quinn thought them getting a cola to the face was funny due to the bubbles going up their nose. Shelby however wasn't finished with embarrassing Will and teamed with Sue to make sure his Regionals preparation was stalled. They did this by substituting his hair gel for toothpaste so that his hair had a minty smell that attracted birds and other wildlife. They also made sure that all his jumpers turned out pink by placing red garments of clothing in his pants pockets and general washing. Sue finished their pranking by placing itching powder in his gym shorts so that he would be itching all day and night for a week.
However, Regionals was upon them, and NM knew that they were not going to just beat ND, they were going to absolutely destroy them. They got their outfits ready and waited for their names to be called, because they knew that when they were. The war with ND would come to an end with them winning.
A/N: Build up to the regionals done, and I am on the home stretch with the story. I would like your opinion if you think my next story should be a Harry Potter/Glee crossover. Review your thoughts.
