Jubilee was the last of the student to perform. The roster was
Everett Singing Savage Garden's "Affirmation"
Paige Singing Kelita's "Strong One"
Angelo Singing Bon Jovi's "It's My Life"
Monet Singing Destiny Child's "Independent Women"
Jono Singing Jono Starmore's "Bad Night"
And then Jubilee was on. The other students when up and sang there songs all gave reasons why
"I'm going to sing Savage Garden's song "Affirmation" and I choose it because I believe a lot of what they say in it." Everett sung his song.
"Am going to sing "Strong One" by Kelita, when Ah was growing up Ah was always supposed to take care of my younger siblings while mah parents worked and Sam was out so Ah sometimes felt like Ah just didn't want to be the strong on anymore. She sang her song
"I'm gonna sing Bon Jovi's "Its My Life" Cause that's kinda how I felt when I lived on the streets." He sang his song.
"I'm going to sing "Independent Women" by Destiny's child as I like to think to think of myself as independent." She sang her song
"This 'ere a song I wrote a while back in England. It was about 'ow I first felt when I got me powers." He sang his song.
Finally it was Jubilees turn she stood on the stage with her long yellow trench coat done up so that all the other students could see was her runners and part of her jeans. "I heard this song on the radio a few days ago and it was just perfect. It fit the way I felt five years ago and it fits the way I find myself feeling again today. Five years ago I ran away from home and from who I was. That's when I created Jubilee. Today I find myself feeling the way I felt when I ran away. 'So Doctor, Doctor wont you please prescribe me something. A day in the life of someone else'. I don't care if you like it. I hope you get it." The music started, Jubilee shed her coat to reveal a tight red tee underneath and tight ripped jeans. She sang in perfect tone.
"Never win first place,
Don't support the team,
Can't take directions,
And my socks are never clean,
Teacher jaded me,
My parent hated me,
I was always in a fight,
Cause I can't do anything right,
Everyday I fight a war against the mirror,
I can't take the person starring back at me,
I'm a hazard to myself,
Don't let me get me,
I'm my own worst enemy,
It's bad when you annoy yourself,
So irritating,
Don't want to be my friend,
I want to be somebody else,
I want to be some body else,
Yeah,
L.A. told me,
You'll be a pop star,
All you have to change,
Is everything you are,
So tired of being compared
To dam Brittany Spears,
She's so pretty,
That's just not me,
So doctor doctor won't you please prescribe me something,
A day in the life of some one else,
Cause,
I'm a hazard to myself,
Don't let me get me,
I'm my own worst enemy,
It's bad when you annoy yourself,
So irritating,
Don't want to be my friend,
I want to be somebody else,
I want to be some body else,
I'm a hazard to myself,
Don't let me get me,
I'm my own worst enemy,
It's bad when you annoy yourself,
So irritating,
Don't want to be my friend,
I want to be somebody else,
I want to be some body else,

As the last cords of the song faded out Jubilee stared out at the audience. Emma stood up. "Jubilee are you telling us that you believe you are a hazard to your self in a physical sense?" Jubilee could feel the White Queen trying to read her thoughts.
"It's Jane and no."
"Well Jane," Emma began in a very patronizing voice "I think that maybe you might need some help. I know you must be under a lot of stress. And what with your sudden changes and all…"
"I'm not crazy," Jane defended herself. " Not yet anyways. I told you I made Jubilee when I ran away and now I can't be her any more."
"Why because you're afraid you'll hurt her?" Emma had begun slowly walking towards the stage.
"No. I'm afraid if I stay her anymore there won't be a me anymore."
"I see. So your not yourself is what your saying?"
"Yes, no, well, I wasn't me, but I want to be me again." Jubilee began backing away from Miss Frost. "Miss Frost I'm not Jubilee I'm Jane. I need to be Jane again before I lose her."
"You're confused right now, you are Jubilee I have you birth certificate..."
"You as much as anyone should know you can buy papers to be who ever you want."
"It's been a long day, maybe you should go to your room and get some sleep we can talk about his in the morning. When you feel more like yourself."
"I'm never going to feel more like Jubilee. I wan to feel more like myself, my real self. Jane." Giving up on changing Emma's mind Jane skirted around her and walked up the stairs and out of the room. As she passed her class mated who had not moved since she had begun her song she heard Emma suggest to Paige that she should stay in Monet's room that night. She smiled a bit when Paige tried to refuse but ultimately she knew Emma would win. She also knew that once she closed the door to her room it would be locked behind her, so that she could not leave.
