Masquerade.
"Mr. Schuester, if it's alright with you, the four of us will be auditioning together as a quadruple mash-up of our favourite songs. Our mash up consists of 'Always' by Panic! At the Disco; 'Say anything' by Mariana's Trench; 'This Day Doesn't Die' by Classified; and 'Things I Wanted to Say' by San Sebastian." Justine informed, and smiled as he nodded. Just when the cousins were about to take their places (Justine sitting at the piano, Jessica and DJ strapped on electric guitars; and Jonathan grabbed his bass guitar, the masked cousin sat over at the drums), Puck interrupted,
"Wait, hold on. Isn't your other cousin going to perform too?"
The four glanced over at the drummer as a smirk appeared on her face. She shrugged in response.
"We'll see."
"Does she talk?" Mercedes asked, skeptically.
Justine looked at the girl as if she had three heads, as the other three snickered, which was followed by an eye roll.
"Of course she talks. And, for your information, she can sing." Justine huffed proudly.
"Can we just do this already?" Santana asked, obviously frustrated.
"Right. Let's do this." DJ answered.
Jessica began plucking the chords to her guitar as Jonathan began:
When the world gets too heavy
Put it on my back,
You are taking me apart
Like bad glue on a get well card
It was always you
Falling for me
Now there's always time
Calling for me
I am the light
Blinking at the end of the road
Blink back to let me know
Suddenly the tone of Jessica's guitar changed and together she and DJ began strumming quickly, as the masked girl began drumming. Jessica had begun to sing:
You can take it all away and I'll miss
There's a little bit of you in all this
And you can say you only think you know, yeah
Please, there's a better bit of me to see yet
Cause you haven't seen any of my best
You know I hate myself without you now
Hurts the same when nobody knows
I guess that's just how it goes
And I won't say anything at all
I was talking on a dollar sign
anxious, scared of what you need
Everybody wants a piece of you
Everyone takes a piece of me
As the guitars faded, Justine had began playing pressing the keys slowly on the piano, as the masked girl transformed her beat into a different tempo. DJ stepped up and began rapping as Jonathan sang backup.
This day doesn't die til... (9x)
Forgive. Forget. That's a lesson that we haven't learned yet.
We try. We cry. But a day doesn't die til the sun is set.
Uh, yeah, night falls, days come and go
No retreat, stubborn, played the role,
Held a grudge, seen it takes its toll
I guess it proves I still got a way to go
Got to stop being so hard headed and hard nosed
and get rid of the excess cargo, you know
lighten up my carload cuz I keep veeren on back down to her road
Uh ? I've been lied to and cheated on
I've been shit talked, beat down, treated wrong,
and I won't forgive or forget
but I don't want to live with regret
and so I hope I can let go, move on,
try to forgive anybody who did Luke wrong
Yeah, right I can hold hope, hoping it'll do but I don't think I got the will to
Forgive. Forget. That's a lesson that we haven't learned yet.
We try. We cry. But a day doesn't die til the sun is set.
He goes, balls to the walls till I drop
Love what I am, hate what I'm not
I no longer talk or text message
any exgirlfriends or these exbestfriends.
Who left me stress and this neck tension
and who never paid any dues but expect pension
so that's what the friendship is suspended
and if you thought I'd forget guess again.
I don't have it in me. I don't have the discipline
Eye for an eye, the adreneline is kicking in
Burn me once then it's shame on you
If I let it happen twice than it's shame on me
okay, I get it, this is part of the vicious
cycle we live in so I'm forgivin
still gittin heated with anyone who burns us
I won't hold a grudge but I'm still tryin' to learn to
Forgive. Forget. That's a lesson that we haven't learned yet.
We try. We cry. But a day doesn't die til the sun is set.
Again, the song suddenly transitioned into Masquerade, with a steady beat and with all the instruments playing at the same time – without the piano. Justine stood from her seat and sang into the microphone, as she jumped energetically to the beat.
I can't look straight at you, my dear
You will smell my fear, hold on to my slippery heart
Don't press too hard
You crush like a tidal wave
I know I had the words to say
Put your tail between your legs
Tell me what you really mean
You never say what you really mean
You masquerade like you're unique
Like you've got a lot to say, like there's something underneath
You masquerade like you're unique
Like's there's another you, like there's someone else to blame
Our chemicals reacting like darts
Teeth are shaking but it's not love
I'm electric and you're a plug
You aren't my friend, I'm not so friendly anymore
Put your tail between your legs
Tell me what you really mean
You never say what you really mean
Everybody noticed that the cousin in the masquerade mask stood up and the drummer from the jazz band took over, as well as the female guitarist that did the 'Gives You Hell' Number with Rachel took over for Jessica. Justine grabbed a chair from the audience and pushed her masked cousin into it. When the girl was seated, Justine and Jessica blocked the view of the rest of the glee club – who was more than thoroughly confused and intrigued at the same time. But as an extra precaution, the boys had stepped in front of them too.
Suddenly, the ask was thrown into the air – landing in front of Quinn. Jessica walked over behind the drumset and pulled out a yellow rose. She handed it to the still mysterious girl, as everybody began to back away and the girl began to sing the rest of the song. Justine and Jessica singing the chorus with her.
You masquerade like you're unique
Like you've got a lot to say, like there's something underneath
You masquerade like you're unique
Like's there's another you, like there's someone else to blame
You want to rewrite our history
You want to the bend the truth
Looks like you wrote it too
You masquerade like you're unique
Like you've got a lot to say, like there's something underneath
You masquerade like you're unique
Like there's another you, like there's someone else to blame
It wasn't until the end of the performance that the cousins' noticed that the mask had landed in Quinn's lap, as Rachel knelt in front of her holding out the yellow rose.
Everybody else was just too shocked to know what to feel.
"They're ….quiet." Jessica observed,
"They're in shock." DJ corrected, as they continued to be stared at.
"Rachel, maybe the surprise was a bit much?" Justine questioned,
Rachel shrugged,
"It's a definite possibility," she trailed off, before a smirk suddenly appaeared.
"Uh oh. Rachel, I know that look. What are you –" Jessica started,
"DJ, Jon….do you guys have your super soakers?"
The boys broke out into a wide smile, before they rummaged through their backpacks and taking out two medium sized water guns.
"5…4…3…" They aimed their guns,
"2…1!" They pulled the trigger, and discovered that there was so much power to knock Finn out of his chair and Artie to the other side of the room. Given, they were the only ones who got wet because they were the only ones DJ and Jonathan were aiming at.
