Here it is! The 'mid-season' finally!

"Who are we going up against next?"
"It's The Perfecters! Their violinist is amazing! If only I could play like that!"
"You're an amazing violinist Corki."
"Not as amazing as that! I need to be perfect if I want to be like them!"
"Corki, are you still rehearsing? Why are you putting yourself through all this?"
"Don't you get it?! The Perfecters violinist is...well that! Perfect!"
"Nobody's perfect Corki. So are you gonna stop worrying so much?"
"Yes."
"That was some marvellous violin! You should be very lucky to have such a talented girl in your band."
"Both of these bands were great! But only one can go to the finals! And that band is...XO-IQ!"
"Tomorrow, XO-IQ will go against The It Girls in the ultimate show down!"
"We can take them! Can we?"
Episode 10 Finals [Make It Pop Extra: This chapter was originally called 'Halfway There.']
The Next Day
Jodi and Corki woke up to Sun Hi slapping them with her pillow!
"Hey", Jodi said.
"What's going on", Corki asked. "You're usually not up first."
"Today is a special occasion", Sun Hi pointed out. "It's the finals of the Band Frontier Tournament!"
"She's right", Corki said as she got up.
"Exactly", Sun Hi started. "So come on! Get up and get dressed!"
With that the girls did as told.
They then walked out of their hotel room and sang 'Something Big' until they got to the venue. [Make It Pop Extra: This song was first used in 'episode' 2.]
When they finished everybody cheered.
Everybody except 'The It Girls.'
"They're good", one of them pointed out. "They might even beat us."
"Not if we do something about it." [Make It Pop Extra: What are you gonna do?]
One Hour Later
One of the 'It Girls' was watching Sun Hi talk to Linc.
"Are you excited", the latter asked.
"Very", Sun Hi stated. "I'm gonna kill it!"
"Sun Hi", Linc said sternly.
"I mean my band and I are gonna kill it", Sun Hi corrected herself.
"Good", Linc stated. "And you're not worried about 'The It Girls' at all?"
"Those girls", Sun Hi asked. "Please. They're what was in then. XO-IQ is what is in now!"
"You sure about that", the 'It Girl' said before walking up to Sun Hi.
"And you are", Sun Hi asked as her and Linc got off the bench they were sitting on.
"The name's Emma", the girl (who was revealed to be named Emma) revealed. "I'm the lead singer of The It Girls."
"Which by the way...is the worst band name ever!" [Make It Pop Extra: Ooo!]
"You'd better watch your mouth honey", Emma stated. "Wouldn't want anything bad to happen now would we?"
"What do you mean", Linc asked in concern.
"I over heard you talking and found out that you're not actually allowed to be performing", Emma revealed. "You're pretending that it's your identical twin sister." [Make It Pop Extra: Read 'episode' 3 to see what Emma is talking about.]
This made Sun Hi and Linc look at Emma in shock.
"If XO-IQ performs and wins...I'll call your principal and tell him your little lie!"
"Our principal is a woman."
"Whatever", Emma yelled. "Just don't go on or the secret's out!"
With that Emma walked away...and Sun Hi and Linc looked at each other in dread. [Make It Pop Extra: This...is not good.]
One Hour Later
Sun Hi and Linc told their friends what had happened.
Jodi even said "That bit..."
"Language Jodi", Corki yelled before Jodi could finish.
"Sorry", Jodi apologised. "But what are we gonna do?"
With that Sun Hi took a deep breath...and said this.
"The show must go on!"
"But Sun Hi", Corki started. "What if Ms Diona finds out that you lied to her?"
"Then so be it", Sun Hi said. "The show must go on."
That Afternoon
The It Girls were performing while XO-IQ watched from the sidelines.
Sun Hi was wearing a hot pink, knee length zip up dress with long, black sleeves and a black hoodie; black tights; black, knee length boots with hot pink laces; a black chocker with a heart pink, heart shaped pendant and black, woollen, wrist length gloves.
Her hair was straight and loose with a strand of each side pinned up.
She was wearing hot pink eyeshadow with black eyeshadow at the top; black eyeliner on on her eyelids with winged tips; hot pink blush and hot pink lipstick.
Jodi and Corki's outfit's were the same but Jodi's one was turquoise and Corki's one was royal blue.
Jodi's hair was curly and loose and Corki's hair was straight and tied into a ponytail.
Caleb was wearing a purple, short sleeved shirt; black jeans; purple sneakers with black soles, a black, long sleeved leather jacket with a popped out collar and purple headphones around the neck.
The male backup dancers were wearing the same outfit.
The female backup dancers were wearing black, sleeveless zip up tops; black jeans; black combat boots and black, leather, wrist length, fingerless gloves.
Their hair was tied into ponytails.
They were wearing purple eyeshadow with black eyeshadow at the top; black eyeliner on their eyelids with winged up tips; black mascara and purple lipstick with black lipliner.
Their nails were painted purple with black tips.
The It Girls finished their performance...and everybody broke out into a standing ovation!
The It Girls then walked off the stage...and Emma looked shocked when she saw XO-IQ.
"What are you doing here", she asked. "I told you that if you performed I'd tell your principal about your little lie!"
"Go ahead", Sun Hi stated.
"Ladies and gentlemen", an announcer started. "For the final performance of the competition...give it up for XO-IQ!"
"XO-IQ never misses a show."
Five Minutes Later
XO-IQ were on stage.
They performed 'Face My Fears.' [Make It Pop Extra: This is from Kingdom Hearts. You should read my Kingdom Hearts fan fiction 'Kingdom Hearts Princess of Heart.' #ShamelessPlug.]
And when they were done...the audience broke out into a standing ovation!
XO-IQ bowed as The It Girls and Nick Cannon walked onto the stage.
"Alright", he started. "Both bands performed greatly...but only one can win the title of Band Frontier Champion! And that band is...XO-IQ!" [Make It Pop Extra: Yes! Yes!]
With that XO-IQ cheered and started hugging each other.
The judges then brought the trophy and XO-IQ grabbed it.
Emma on the other hand...was not happy.
"You'll pay for this!"
With that XO-IQ looked at her in dread.
This would not end well.
Three Days Later
XO-IQ were back at Mackendrick Prep.
They were in Ms Diona's office.
"Imagine my surprise when I got a phone call from a girl who does even go to school here claiming that it was actually Sun Hi performing at the Band Frontier Tournament!"
Sun Hi looked down sadly.
"Sun Hi", Ms Diona started getting said person to look up. "I told you that you were not allowed to perform and you disobeyed me!"
"I know", Sun Hi stated.
"Well then", Ms Diona started. "It has been decided! Sun Hi Song, as of today...you are no longer a student at Mackendrick Prep!"
This made XO-IQ look at Ms Diona in shock.
"What", Jodi said.
"No", Corki said.
"Please Ms Diona", Sun Hi pleaded. "This is the first time I've actually liked school!"
"Well you should've thought of that before you went against my wishes", Ms Diona stated. "Pack your things. I have called your mother to pick you and your sister up."
One Hour Later
Sun Hi was packing up her things.
"I'm sorry guys", she apologised. "This is all my fault!"
"This isn't your fault Sun Hi", Jodi started. "We're the ones who left you to get the laptop on your own." [Make It Pop Extra: That is also from 'episode' 3.]
"And now you have to pay the price on your own", Corki added.
Sun Mi then walked into the room...with an older woman.
The woman was Korean with long, black hair tied into a bun, pale skin and dark brown eyes.
She was wearing a white, short sleeved dress shirt that was buttoned up; a black pencil skirt and black high heels.
Sun Hi turned to face her.
"Hello omonee", she greeted. [Make It Pop Extra: Omonee is Korean for 'mother.']
"It's time to go", the woman (who was Sun Hi's mother) said sternly.
With that Sun Hi sighed sadly before turning to look at her friends.
"Bye guys."
With that XO-IQ all shared a group hug.
Sun Hi then broke the hug...and walked out the door.
Ten Minutes Later
Sun Hi and Sun Mi were in a car with their mother.
"I am very disappointed in both of you", the latter stated sternly. "I expect this kind of behaviour from you Sun Hi, but you too Sun Mi? I expect better from you!"
"Thanks omonee", Sun Hi mumbled.
"Well can you blame me", Mrs Song asked. "I mean...pretending that your sister is performing when it is actually you?! When your teacher said you were not allowed to perform?! I let you be in that band because I thought it'd be good for you! You finally had something you worked hard for! But if it causes you to break the rules, then I'm sorry, but no more band for you Sun Hi!"
With that Sun Hi looked down sadly.
"However", Mrs Song started getting Sun Hi to look up. "Your father and I have noticed that performing is the one thing you actually work hard for. So, we have decided to let you audition for the performing arts school that your sisters go to."
Sun Hi looked at her mom in shock.
"Really?"
HotXbun: Interesting?
Challenge: Tell me what you think will happen next.
My Answer: You'll have to wait for the start of the second half to find out.
