Okay, I've got a great idea! You'll know what it is when you read this chapter. I'll try and make it really long!
Bulma had everyone gathered into one of the game rooms. While waiting for Pan to go find Bra, Cale and Goten were playing AIR hockey and Alex was being the announcer, (the very hyper announcer, that is).
"And Goten scores against Cale, and he's leading the game with 8/9!" Alex said in a loud voice. "Cale is SUCH a big fat looser!!!!!" She said, and a ripple of laughter went through the room. She was just about to announce that Cale scored on Goten when Pan and Bra entered the room.
"Okay, we're here!" Bra said smiling.
"Everyone, pay attention!" Bulma said. All heads turned toward her. "Capsule Corp. is holding a talent show with paid admission to help benefit that homeless shelter downtown. It's gonna be like a party, and when it's your turn, people will hear you or see you, but they'll also be playing games. Anyone can sign up, it's all day. Spread the word, and sign up youself! Okay, that's all!" Bulma said, smiling. She hopped down off her chair. Gosan and Cale headed off, to figure out what they were going to do. Trunks and Goten went into a corner, as did Bra and Pan, and Marron and Ubuu. No one wanted to do anything alone, and they were already all in their pairs. Alex looked around, and felt a twinge of sadness at not having her sister to plan with, but that was okay. She walked out of the room by herself, hoping to spread the word, if she couldn't do anything. Then, a thought struck her. Allie (her younger sister) always said she had a pretty voice, and she thought she could sing good.
"I guess I'll try it…" She said to herself outloud. She ran up to the elevator and when to her room to see what song she could sing. She looked through all her karaoke tapes, but just couldn't find one she wanted to sing. She was about to give up, when she reached down to the bottom of the bag and pulled out a song. She looked at the label and grinned.
"I'll sing this one." She said, grinning insanely. She grabbed her battery powered CD/cassette played and the tape that she was going to sing by. She flew past the window, which was right where Cale and Gosan were planning. They look up.
"Gosh, she looks excited!" Gosan said. "Let's follow her!" He said, standing up. Cale pulled him back down.
"No, just let her do her own thing." Cale said. Gosan shrugged and sat back down.
(2 weeks later)
The party had started, and everyone was laughing, running around, and eating. One thing was missing though. It wasn't the games or the rides they had those. There was food… Entertainment! That's what was missing. Everyone that was doing something was backstage, by order of Bulma. Alex hung back, kinda embarrassed about going to sing and all… What if she was really bad!? Or forgot the words! Should she dedicate this song to Cale? What if it was totally wrong!? She leaned against the bar of the curtains. She didn't want to be seen all fixed up like some pop star. Bulma made an announcement, about how it was tradition that everyone gather to the stage to watch the first act. She would draw out or this bucket of names, and the person they picked would come up.
The tension in the air thickened considerably after that last part. Bulma shook the bucket and drew out a name. She looked at it and grinned. She leaned over to the speaker and said… (AN- A name!)
MUAHAHA! My first cliffhanger… I hope… turn in next time for who does their thing and who goes after them! I know it wasn't really long, but I had this urge to make a cliffhanger! ^_^ Don't hurt me…
