EDITED cuz im a loser and Robyn is smart!
I'd like to blame Clay Aiken for making me mess up on this fic. Seeing him turned my brain, and entire into mush. So heres the fixed version REVIEW!
Chapter Eight
The night of the duets was droing closer, that day they got out at half day to 'get ready' but the real reason they were getting out early was to freak out the contestants even more with out the distraction of silly little classes. They all went down to the Great Hall. They were backstages when Tonks came out as a really pretty girl with jet black hair.
"Hey everyone. I need the BSS students to come out for a mike check. Hogwarts students won't be able to hear you, just to keep it a surprise!" The BSS students left. When they got back back stage it was almost time to go perform.
"Okay this is how it's gonna work, the cameras have been bewitched to automaticly take the best angles to send to BSS, then after your performance our three judjes will say their bit, I will remind the veiwers from both schools what number to dail if they want to keep you in yada yada yada... sound goood?" Tonks asked looking at the eight pairs, all replying with nervous head nods. " GREAT! the order is Mandy & Draco, Cho & Matt, Amanda & Pansy, Harry & Michelle, Nabil & Hermione, Emma-Leigh & Ron, Robyn &Susan and Courteney & Hannah... time to go." Tonks walked onto the brightly lit stage.
"HELLO students from BSS to Hogwarts, I hope your all ready to hear som awesome songs. Lets make some nois for the contestants." The Hogwarts students cheered and some miles away the BSS students cheered. (yah they are watcching it at the same time... just different times... hope that makes some sense)
"Lets meet the judges. First off we have the lovely Professor Bullavardez." everyone cheered
"Then, the sherbert lemon addicted Professor Dumbledore." everyone cheered and laughed be cause he had just popped a sherbert lemon in his mouth as she said that.
"And our third judge is none other then pop and American Idol's Simon Cowell" the crowd (much louder then the previous judges) screamed again. The wizarding world knew of Simon's "little secret" Simon was a a big name in wizarding music too. He owned the Weird Sisters.
"Alright our first performers of the night are Mandy Newman and Draco Malfoy!" Draco had charmed his hair longer and had it black again, Mandy had done the same thing.. each supporting heavy dark eyeliner going for the 'gothic-ish' look.
Draco
I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain, away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right
when you're gone away
You've gone away,
you don't feel me,
anymore
Mandy
The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high,
you steal my pain, away
There's so much left to learn,
and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
both
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore
The crowd went wild. They sang the perfect song for them. Both Professors Bullavardez and Dumbledore praised the performance.
"You need to work on connecting with the audience" Simon said living up to his insulting persona.
"Awesome you guys!" Tonks said "so if you want to keep Mandy and Draco in the competition vote 01 on your voter disk thingys AFTER! the show/" she highly stressed the after part. As Draco, followed by Mandy left the stage the lights dimmed and Cho and Matt went on stage.
Matt
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
Cho
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you
Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
cho
A whole new world
Matt
Don't you dare close your eyes
Cho
A hundred thousand things to see
Matt
Hold your breath - it gets better
Both
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be
Cho
A whole new world
Matt
Every turn a surprise
Cho
With new horizons to pursue
Matt
Every moment red-letter
Both
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
Matt
A whole new world
Cho
That's where we'll be
Cho
A thrilling chase
Matt
A wondrous place
Both
For you and me
They didn't get as ravie reviews as Draco and Mandy had. Cho was way of pitch and sounded like she had a cold.
"Matt, you sounded great, Cho really bourgh you down. I can't believe she made it this far." Simon said, Bullavardez agreed on that point.
Amanda and Pansy took to the stage and a country tune started. (makes sense in a bit) Both looking absolutly fabulous.
Pansy
I've known about you for a while now
When he leaves me he wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be
Amanda
But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I'll never see his face in the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytimes
And sometimes I have his nights
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Amanda
But when he's with me
He says he needs me
And that he wants me
That he believes in me
Pansy
And when I'm in his arms
Oh he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me
Or am I deceiving myself
(Am I deceiving myself)
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Pansy
Oh shouldn't I lose my temper
Amanda
Oh and shouldn't I be ashamed
Pansy
Cuz I have everything to lose
Amanda:
And I, I have nothing to gain
Both:
But does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he loves me (Like he loves me)
Does he think of you (Does he think of you)
When he's holding me
And does he whisper (Does he whisper)
All his fantasies
Does he love you (Does he love you)
Like he's been loving me
Pansy:
Oh does he love you
Just like when Pansy sang Boys she had Brittneys voice down pat, it was the same with Reba, she was able to get that country drawl. And Amanda was awesome too, she may be evil but boy did she have pipes. Up next Michelle and Harry took the stage.
Harry
I got chills.
They're multiplyin'.
And I'm losin' control.
'Cause the power
you're suplyin',
it's electrifyin'!
Michelle
You better shape up,
'cause I need a man
and my heart is set on you.
You better shape up;
you better understand
to my heart I must be true.
Harry
Nothin' left, nothin' left for me to do.
Both
You're the one that I want.
(you are the one i want), o,o, oo, honey.
The one that I want.
(you are the one i want), o,o,oo, honey.
The one that I want
You, o,o, oo
are what I need.
Oh, yes indeed.
Michelle
If you're filled
with affection
you're to shy to convey,
meditate in my direction.
Feel your way.
Harry
I better shape up,
'cause you need a man
Micelle
i need a man
who can keep me satisfied.
Harry
I better shape up
if I'm gonna prove
Michelle
oh you better prove
that my faith is justified.
Harry
Are you sure?
Michelle
Yes, I'm sure down deep inside.
Both
You're the one that I want.
You, o,o, oo, honey.
The one that I want.
You, o,o,oo, honey.
The one that I want
You, oo, oo
are what I need.
Oh, yes indeed.
They really got the audience going... I mean who doesn't know Grease? Michelle was wearing the leather and had the puffy hair, and Harry had his hair all gelled up and back making him look almost like a dark haired Draco. They had awesome stage pressence, as Professor Bullavardez pointed out. Simon also gave them a huge compliment.
"Up next Robyn and Susan, give it up!"The music started.
Robyn:
Excuse me, can I please talk to you for a minute?
Susan:
Uh huh, sure you know, you look kinda familiar.
Robyn:
Yeah, you do too but, umm, I just wanted to know do you know somebody named
you, you know his name.
Susan:
Oh, yeah definatly, I know his name.
Robyn:
I just wanted to let you know he's mine.
Susan:
Huh... No no, he's mine!
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Robyn:
I think it's time we got this straight
Let's sit and talk face to face
There is no way you could mistake
Him for your man are you insane
Susan:
You see I know that you may be
Just be jealous of me
Cuz you're blind if you can't see
That his love is all in me
Robyn:
You see I tried to hesitate
I didn't wanna say what they told me
He said without me he couldn't make
It through the day ain't that a shame
Susan:
Maybe you misunderstood
Cause I can't see how he could
Wanna change something that's so good
But my love is all it took
Both:
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Susan:
Must you do the things you do
You keep on acting like a fool
You need to know it's me not you
And if you didn't know it girl it's true
Robyn:
I think that you should realize
And try to understand why
He is a part of my life
I know it's killing you inside
Susan:
You can say what you want to say
What we have you can't take
from the truth you can't escape
I can tell the real from the fake
Robyn:
When will you get the picture
You're the past, I'm the future
Get away it's my time to shine
And if you didn't know the boy is mine
Both:
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Susan:
You can't destroy this love I found
Your silly games I won't allow
The boy is mine without a doubt
You might as well throw in the towel
Robyn:
What makes you think that he wants you
When I'm the one that brought him to
This special place in my heart
Cause he was my love right from the start
Both:
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
Both:
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Susan:
Not yours
Robyn:
But mine
Susan:
Not yours
Robyn:
But mine
Susan:
Not yours
Robyn:
But mine
Both:
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
The two girls finished the song and both got rave reveiws.They were very well matched. Up next was Hermione and Nabil. Hermione came out wearing a beautiful red dress that was very low cut, and Nabil was wearing a suit type thing that made him look very sexy.
Nabil:
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day i'm loving you more than this
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Hermione:
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time
Both:
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you untill my dying day
Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Untill my dying day
They had perfect harmony together. Nabils low voice matched with Hermiones high range mingled to gether wish such amazingness that they sounded even better then the original. Courteney and Hannah then took the stage. Courteney didn't look to happy because Simon had asked Nabil and Hermione if they were together, and sometimes Courteney could get a little jealous. The music started and they got into the song.
Court:
Give it your all girl, give it all ya got.
Take your chance at a second hand shot.
Hannah:
Say what you want girl, Do what you do.
He's never gonna, gonna make it with you.
Courteney:
Pulling petals off a flower trying to get your way.
Keep pulling til' it says what you wanna say.
Girl you can pick a field full of daisies.
But He'd still be my baby.
Hannah:
I know you can hardly wait till i'm away from Him.
Instinctively, I know what you're thinking.
You'll be giving Him an open invitation.
But my baby won't be taken in.
Both:
You can pout your cherry lips.
Try to tempt Him with a sweet kiss.
You can flirt your pretty eyes.
He ain't got His hands tied.
No chains to unlock.
So free to do what He wants.
He's into what, He's got.
He loves me, He loves you not.
No matter what you do, He's never gonna be with you
He's into what He's got.
He loves me, He loves you not.
Hannah:
You're the kind of girl that is always up for do or dare.
Only want Him just because he's there
Always looking for a new ride.
The grass is greener on the other side.
Courteney:
You're the kind of girl who's not use to hearing no.
All your lovers try to take you where you wanna go.
It doesn't matter how hard you try,
never gonna get with my guy.
Both:
No chains to unlock.
So free to do what he wants.
He's into what, He's got (and that's me).
He loves me, He loves you not.
No matter what you do, He is never gonna be with you (with you).
He's into what, He's got.
He loves me, he loves you not.
Dance Off
Doesn't matter what you do, He's never gonna be with you.
Both:

You can take your chance at a second hand shot.
Say what you want girl, do what you do.
He's never gonna make it with you.

Try to tempt him with a sweet kiss (sweet kiss).
You can flirt your pretty eyes (pretty eyes).
He ain't got His hands tied.
No chains to unlock.
So free to do what He wants.
He's into what, He's got.

No matter what you do, He's never gonna be with you (He's my guy).
He's into what He's got, (and that's me).
He loves me, He loves you NOT!
They ended back to back with their arms crossed and Courteney went back to her sullen 'pissed off at Nabil' face "Awesome" seemed to be the consensess between the three judges. Last but not least, Emma-Leigh and Ron came onstage. A song that would be familliar to any one who had ever been to a muggle middle school dance.
Emma-Leigh:
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy.
Ron:
I'll be your hope
I'll be your I'll be your dream
love
Be everything that you need.
Both:
I love you more with every breath
Truly madly deeply do..
I will be strong I will be faithful
Emma-Leigh:
'Cos I'm counting on a new beginning.
A reason for living.
A deeper meaning.
Both:
I want to stand with you on a mountain.
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever.
Until the sky falls down on me...
Ron:
And when the stars are shining brightly
In the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish
Send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry..
Emma-Leigh:
The tears of joy
For all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded
By the comfort and protection of..
Both:
The highest power.
In lonely hours.
The tears devour you..
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
Emma-Leigh:
Oh can't you see it baby?
Ron:
You don't have to close your eyes
Emma-Leigh:
'Cos it's standing right before you.
Ron:
All that you need will surely come...
Both:
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly madly deeply do...
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
"I liked how you made a non-duet song a duet. Very nice" Simon said.
After the judges finished their judging, Tonks brought out the other contestants.
"Okay people These are your top 16 give them all a round of applause." All the students cheered like mad as the highlights from the top 16 were shown on a large screen behind them.
"Remember ITS YOU WHO KEEP YOUR FAVOURITE IN. You have two hours to vote. Vote as many times as you like. Tomorrow we will be having the results show. Good luck contestants Tonks OUT.
