Why Just Have One?

by 626Edge

FaFaberry Quinn has a twin sister named Fran. They pull a trick to switch out when one is sick or wants to do something. They are smart, beautiful, and talented. The only people who know are their family and the other parts of the unholy squad. So what starts out as a normal july 4th for rachel will soon turn her future for the better or the worse. No matter what her life is crazy.

42. Chapter-42

-Chapter 42-Regionals part 1-

-Fran pov-

"We have come up with absolutely nothing!" I punch the wall in front of me "Rachel is out there and so is Santana! Our families moved to give us this chance! Why are we blowing it?!"

"We just could not reach deep enough" Mercedes frowns "We are going to end up going home empty handed"

"I got it!" Brittany walks to the front of us all with Puck and Artie "I have the perfect song!"

(Lyrics from genius)

[BRITTANY & (ARTIE)]

I got you in the palm of my hand

Wanna put something hot in you

So hot that you can't stand (That you can't stand)

Gonna take you to my lips

Empty out every last drop

So thirsty for what's in you, baby

That I can't stop (That I can't stop)

In the middle of the night, I'm in bed, alone

Don't care if you're glass, paper, styrofoam

When I need some water, baby

[ARTIE & BRITTANY]

Coffee or gin

[BRITTANY (with ARTIE)]

You're the (Only thing, I wanna put them in)

[ARTIE & BRITTANY]

My cup, my cup

Sayin', "What's up?"

To my cup, my cup

More of a friend than a silly pup

My cup

You know what it is

Sayin', "What's up?"

To my cup (Ahh)

I'm sayin', "What's up?"

To my cup (Ahh)

I'm sayin', "What's up?"

To my cup (Ahh)

"That will not work either" We all turn toward the door as Rachel crutches her way in "Hey...I have the song I just need you to sing it Fran"

"What?" She holds out a book and I shake my head "I can not sing your song"

"You are the best person to" Rachel gives me a loving smile "You have always thought about getting life done the way you want! The right way to you! The song fits you love"

"She is right" Quinn walks over with a loving smile "Plus we are going out on stage now"

"I will not let you down ok?" Rcahel nods and I give her a chaste kiss as I take the book "I love you"

"I love you" She points out the door with a determined look "Now go win!"

They all cheer and I nod my head. We make our way out of the green room and to the stage. New York has a different judging system here. Unlike Lima they will judge us based on the applause and audience.

Once we are judged the other two teams will come out. The announcer will come up and announce who came in first before the other two. It seems mean but New York is more cutthroat. Only the best can survive I guess.

I look over the lyrics again and give the book to Quinn. Shelby is letting us go out by ourselves to show we can do this. To show that we are able to make it here. Now to go prove everyone right that we are, and will be, the best to be out here tonight.

[FRAN]

What have I done? I wish I could run

Away from this ship goin' under

Just tryin' to help, hurt everyone else

Now I feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders

What can you do when your good isn't good enough

And all that you touch tumbles down?

Cause my best intentions keep makin' a mess of things

I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many times will it take?

Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right?

To get it right

Can I start again with my faith shaken?

'Cause I can't go back and undo this

I just have to stay and face my mistakes

But if I get stronger and wiser, I'll get through this

What can you do when your good isn't good enough

And all that you touch tumbles down?

Cause my best intentions keep makin' a mess of things

I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many times will it take?

Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right?

So I throw up my fist, throw a punch in the air

And accept the truth that sometimes life isn't fair

Yeah, I'll send out a wish, yeah, I'll send up a prayer

And finally someone will see how much I care

What can you do when your good isn't good enough

And all that you touch tumbles down?

Oh, my best intentions keep makin' a mess of things

I just wanna fix it somehow

But how many times will it take?

Oh, how many times will it take to get it right?

To get it right

The audience stands up applauding and I look for once person though. Rachel gives a huge smile and thumbs up. I take a bow with a smile as the group comes out. We came up with this group song because we are unapologetically us.

(Lyrics from genius)

[FRAN & QUINN]

Yeah, you may think that I'm a zero (Huh)

But hey, everyone you wanna be

Probably started off like me

You may say that I'm a freak show (I don't care)

But hey, give it just a little time

I bet you're gonna change your mind

[MERCEDES & FINN]

All of the dirt you've been throwin' my way

It ain't so hard to take, that's right

Cause I know one day you'll be screaming my name

And I'll just look away, that's right

[TROUBLE TONES]

Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth

So everyone can hear

Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down

Baby, I don't care

Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out

You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me

A loser like me

[FINN & MERCEDES]

Push me up against the locker

And hey, all I do is shake it off

I'll get you back when I'm your boss

I'm not thinkin' 'bout you haters

Cause, hey, I could be a superstar

I'll see you when you wash my car

[TINA & MIKE]

All of the dirt you've been throwin' my way

It ain't so hard to take, that's right

Cause I know one day you'll be screaming my name

And I'll just look away, that's right

[TROUBLE TONES]

Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth

So everyone can hear

Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down

Baby, I don't care

Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out

You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me

A loser like me

A loser like me

[BRITTANY & TROUBLE]

Hey you over there

Keep the L up, up in the air

Hey you over there

Keep the L up, cause I don't care

You can throw your sticks

And you can throw your stones

Like a rocket, just watch me go

Yeah L-O-S-E-R, I can only be who I are

[TROUBLE TONES]

Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth (Yeah)

So everyone can hear

Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down

Baby, I don't care

Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out

You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me

Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth (Yeah)

So everyone can hear

Hit me with the worst you've got and knock me down

Baby, I don't care

Keep it up and soon enough you'll figure out

You wanna be, you wanna be a loser like me

(A loser like me)

A loser like me

(A loser like me)

A loser like me

Everyone is standing and cheering for us. I feel like we did so great! We did everything right! I finally feel like I can be proud of myself!

We all stop our celebration as we turn to see another group out there. I thought we were the last ones. Based on Shelby getting up from her seat she did too. Oh the other clubs look confused too.

"I came to New York to be the best" Oh god not him "So now I am going to beat Shelby's team to prove it! Now stand back and look at how a real teacher is able to train his kids on what they should do out in the stage!"

-The York Notes singing-

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Caught in a landslide

No escape from reality

Open your eyes

Look up to the skies and see

I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy

Because I'm easy come, easy go

Little high, little low

Any way the wind blows

Doesn't really matter to me, to me

Mama, just killed a man

Put a gun against his head

Pulled my trigger, now he's dead

Mama, life had just begun

But now I've gone and thrown it all away

Mama, ooh

Didn't mean to make you cry

If I'm not back again this time tomorrow

Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come

Sends shivers down my spine

Body's aching all the time

Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go

Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth

Mama, ooh (Any way the wind blows)

I don't want to die

I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man

Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?

Thunderbolt and lightning very, very frightening me

(Galileo) Galileo

(Galileo) Galileo

Galileo Figaro

Magnifico-o-o-o-o

I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me

He's just a poor boy from a poor family

Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?

Bismillah! No, we will not let you go (Let him go!)

Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let him go!)

Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let me go!)

Will not let you go (Let me go!)

Never let you go (Never, never, never, never let me go)

Oh oh oh oh

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Oh, mama mia, mama mia (Mama mia, let me go)

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?

So you think you can love me and leave me to die?

Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby

Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here

Ooooh, ooh yeah, ooh yeah

Nothing really matters

Anyone can see

Nothing really matters

Nothing really matters to me

Any way the wind blows

"You all look frightened" Jesse chuckles and walks away "You all are so screwed"

We look out in fear as the crowd reacts like they did with us. We could lose it all right now. We are so screwed right now. Why did he have to ruin it?

What are we going to do now?
