-Chapter 43-Regionals part 2-

-Rachel pov-

We are all on the stage waiting for the results. We poured our hearts and souls into this. I grab my mates hands as we wait for the results. The mayors wife stumbles onto the stage with the cars.

"You know usually we do a big spiel but I will not!" She sways a little bit "In third place we have the Aural Intensity! Something my husband knows nothing about!...there's your award and now for the winner! Coming to us from..from this school! The winners are McKinleys own Trouble tones!"

We all cheer and hug as the trophy comes to us. The warblers look disheartened and I do feel sad. They were really good. I hope we get a good competition out of them again next year.

I get handed the trophy and lifted up. I look and see the trophy has reflections. I do not see mine in there and of course no vampires. Wait a minute no vampire reflections.

"The photos!" I get lowered and everyone looks at me confused "THE VAMPS! No one shows on the photos!"

"Oh god" Quinn looks out to the crowd who some do seem confused "Oh god no"

"Why is everyone losing their minds?" The judges look around confused "What is happening right now?"

"We need to get out now" Quinn starts to step away but some guys with wooden stakes walk toward us "Stand back!"

"What is happening here?" The mayor walks up and in between us all "These kids one and will be leaving"

"Them kids have vampires with them" They turn some Polaroids around "See?"

"I see perfectly fine" The mayor grabs a stake and throws it away "I have been talking with the council along with their council and the president of the United States about these matters"

"So we got open season?" The mayor shakes his head "We just let them stay near our kids?!"

"Pull them out or move we will help" The mayor points toward us "But no one will hurt them or you will be charged with hate crimes and if you kill them...you are charged with murder too"

"Let's go Bob" They drop their stakes "it's not worth it"

We watch them slowly leave "W-we have rights?" The mayor nods and I can see tears in my mates eyes "We-we no longer have to hide anymore?"

"I was going to surprise you all with the news" Maribel shows a piece of paper "United Nations signed off on it"

"Now there are still dress codes and ethics to be followed" The mayor steps closer to us "We still have race issues so you can imagine the issues to come from supernaturals being proven real and given rights"

"Thank you" Judy holds out her hand and he shakes "You can expect my vote next year"

"Glad to hear" He turns toward the crowd and motions to our club "The winners of the contest! The McKinley Trouble Tones everyone!"

The applause starts again as some people leave. This will be a uphill battle for sure. But now we are accepted partially. I can be little and not ashamed anymore!

"Now onto celebration!"

The club all hug and laugh as we rock out. We have acceptance and a trophy! We are going to New York to become national champions too! Our lives are finally looking up!

"I just want to say my peace please" We all turn to see William in front of a angry Maribel and Judy "Please"

"Let him" I walk closer and they step back some "What do you have to say?"

"You all did amazing up there! I would have never even thought of doing a original set list" He sighs and runs a hand through his hair "I just..I want to say I am sorry and I have been getting help...I realize I messed up and I turned myself in"

"So how are you here?" He does not look up at us "William?"

"They said you probably provoked it" William shakes his head and I can see the truth in his eyes "I gave proof and only got held for a few days"

"The restraining order?" Will holds up a paper "So why risk it?"

"Because my next step is moving on" He gives a sad smile to us all "I am moving to California! I have a teaching job in line and a girl I am talking to"

Emma slowly moves forward "I am happy you have gotten help" She puts a hand on his shoulder "You are going to do good"

"Thanks" William looks at us all "Congrats and I will see you all on Television or Broadway"

"Thank you" He nods and walks away "I feel like a old chapter has finally closed"

"Now onto the future" I turn with a smile to Quinn "We still beside you in that one?"

"Is it even a question?" She smiles and Santana pulls me into her body "LET US PARTY ON!"

"You have some room for second place?" We all turn to see the Warblers "We would love to celebrate too"

"The more the merrier" Mom motions them over "We always have room for our friends"

They smile and join us in partying. Today has been a great day all things considered. I can not wait to see what tomorrow brings. New York is also just one step away.

Our future is really looking up.
