A/N: Presenting, the 8th chapter of my fanfiction! I am so sorry it took me so long to type it up. I was busy with school starting up again, and then I had STAR testing to do. Thankfully, STAR testing enabled me to continue writing the chapters since I would have a lot of time after to write. Still, I feel incredibly guilty for not typing the chapter up as soon as I was finished writing it. Instead, I got started on the 9th chapter and today 04/28/08 a.k.a April 28, 2008, I finished chapter 9. So, from chapter 9, I am one chapter away from being done with this story unless I add an epilogue after. I will only add an epilogue if you, the readers, want me too. I also need you to vote on a winner after the 9th chapter. I have a winner in mind, but I might change the winner if I get in enough reviews saying who they voted for. I will remind you again though at the end of this chapter, before chapter 9, and especially after.
Also, Please Please Please leave a review!! As much as I love getting notices when my story is added to someone's "Favorites" or "Alerts" or when I am added as a "Favorite author" or "Author Alert", it is much more rewarding to see you all take your time to leave me a review voicing your thoughts about the chapter and the story. By leaving me a review, it makes me want to update as quick as possible so that I can see your thoughts on the incoming chapters.
Now, to those who did leave a review:

Once again to remind you, here is how to tell the difference between singing, lyrics, talking, and thinking:
If a character is dancing to a song, or has a song playing in the background, it will be in italics only, like this: I love you, I loved you all along. And I miss you, been far away for far too long.
If a character is singing to a song, the song will be in italics with a speaking quote at the beginning where they sing, to the end of where they sing, like this: "I love you, I loved you all along. And I miss you, been far away for far too long. I just wanted to let you know that just in case.
This is talking "blah"
This is thinking 'blah'
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter in any way. I only own the plot of this story. Thank you, and enjoy your time reading and reviewing.
Chapter 8: ACT III.
There was a 15 minute intermission between each ACT. Everyone was super excited. All around you, everyone was thinking the same thing, 'If that was just the first ACT, what's coming next?'
Harry and Ron took this time to find Hermione. They found her talking to Ginny, Parvati, Lavender, and Padma.
"Hey Hermione!" they called. Hermione looked over at them with widened eyes, held up a finger that said "one minute" to them and quickly finished her conversation with the girls. They all smiled and waved goodbye to Hermione as she walked over to Harry and Ron.
"Hey boys. How are you guys feeling?" Hermione asked.
"A little nervous, but good." Harry said.
Hermione smiled at Harry, making Harry's stomach do several back flips.
"Are you enjoying the show so far Hermione?" Ron asked her.
"Yes, it's been quite enjoyful. You guys have some good competition."
The lights started flickering, signaling that the show would begin in five minutes.
"We all better get back to our seats. Good luck guys." Hermione said to them before leaving.
"Later Hermione!" Harry and Ron called.
Harry and Ron went back to their seats next to Fred and George.
"So, you guys nervous?" Harry asked Fred and George.
"Us? Nah, never." Fred said.
The lights dimmed and the stage lights came back on. Professor Dumbledore was back on stage.
"The second ACT to our show will now begin. Will Miss Rose Zeller, please come back to the stage?" Professor Dumbledore asked.
Rose came back on stage to the loud cheer of the crowd.
"Let's keep this wheel going!" Our first performance is by Professors Trelawny, Flitwick, and Sprout!"
The students gave a polite cheer for their professors as they walked on stage. Trelawny, Flitwick, and Sprout nodded to Collin and Dennis, and the music began.
"Dolores Umbridge,
Dolores Umbridge,
The terror of Hogwarts and Hogsmeade village,
She's even more irritating than a midge!
Dolores Dolores
You can clearly see she raided the fridge!
Look out for Dolores Umbridge"
Everyone was cracking up. Students who remembered Umbridge were gleeful at the idea of her being made fun of. Muggle-borns who had seen 101 Dalmatians were able to recognize the tune was the same tune to the song Cruella de Vil.
"At first you think Umbridge is a sweetie,
But after time has taken its toll.
At first, you'll realise
She's never sympathised,
And she should be put on the dole!
She bullies students,
That inhuman toad,
We need to really kick,
That really wide load!
Hogwarts was such a great place until
Dolores Dolores Umbridge!"
There was a great roar of cheer from the students to the teachers for their performance. Rose came back onstage laughing.
"That was amazing! Thank you Professors for that very entertaining performance. Up next, we have a new group called the Slytherin Snakes!"
Montague, Urquhart, Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle, and Zabini came onstage. They nodded to Collin and Collin quickly started the music.
"Buddy you're a boy make a big noise
Playin in the street gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on yo face
You big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
Buddy you're a young man hard man
Shoutin' in the street gonna take on the world some day
You got blood on yo face
You big disgrace
Wavin your banner all over the place
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you"
Surprisingly, they were actually pretty good singers. Crabbe and Goyle though just stood there looking tough.
"Buddy you're an old man poor man
Pleadin' with your eyes gonna make you some peace some day
You got mud on your face
You big disgrace
Somebody better put you back in your place
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you"
All the Slytherins were cheering loudly, especially the female Slytherins. Most people clapped for them just to avoid getting hit.
Rose came back on stage.
"Thank you boys. Now, to remind us that all we need is love, here is Ernie and Hannah!" Rose said. Ernie walked onstage wearing a handsome suit with a red cummerbund. Hannah walked on stage wearing a lovely silk dark red dress. Ernie nodded to Collin, and Collin started the music, with Ernie quickly starting the song. (A/N: The parts Ernie sings is in bold and italics, like this; and Hannah's is just italics, like this.)
"Love is a many splendid thing, love
lifts us up where we belong all you need is love
Please don't start that again
All you need is love
A girl has go to eat
All you need is love
Or she'll end up on the streets
All you need is love"
Muggleborns recognized the song from Moulin Rouge called Elephant Love Medley. Soon, many singing along.
"Love is just a game
I was meant for loving you baby and you were meant for loving me
The only way of loving me baby is to pay a lovely fee
Just one night, just one night
There's no way 'cause you can't pay
In the name of love, one night in the name of love
You crazy fool I won't give in to you
Don't...leave me this way I can't survive without your sweet love
oh baby don't leave me this way"
All of the students, and the teachers, were in awe at their performance.
"You'd think that people would've had enough of silly love songs
I look around me and I see it isn't so, oh no
Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs
Well what's wrong with that, I'd like to know
'cause here I go again
Love lifts us up where we belong
where eagles fly, on a mountain high
Love makes us act like we are fools,
throw our lives away for one happy day
We could be heroes just for one day
You, you will be mean
No I won't
And I, I'll drink all the time
We should be lovers
We can't do that
We should be lovers
And thats a fact"
Ernie and Hannah had captivated the crowd. Everyone was thinking how sweet it all was. Ernie and Hannah sang so well.
"Though nothing will keep us together
we could steal time
(together) just for one day
We could be heroes forever and ever
We could be heroes for ever and ever
We can be heroes
(guy)
Just because I will always love you
(together)
I can't help loving
how wonderful life is now you're in the world"
Ernie and Hannah were standing close together. After the last word, the music kept playing, and Ernie and Hannah ended their performance with a stage kiss. Everyone gave a loud cheer to their theatrical performance. Ernie and Hannah had huge smiles on their faces. They held hands, walked forward, and took a bow together. They brought the joined hands back up and waved to the crowd.
"That was amazing guys!" Rose said. "Now, here to remind us all of the famous saying, Voulez vous coucher acev moi ce soir, I give you, the Gryffindor Girls!" Rose yelled
The audience gave a huge cheer fro them as they waited for the girls to come onstage. However, a lovely curtain fell through, hiding the girls from view. Everyone could see props though. Soon, the audience could hear snapping as Padma came onstage.
"Ladies and Gentlemen: Welcome to the Moulin Rouge" Padma said. She pointed her arms to the right as she walked sideways to the left off stage. The snapping still continued. Then Lavenders voice was heard as a spotlight shone through the curtain displaying Lavenders shadow.
"Where's all mah soul sistas
Lemme hear ya'll flow sistas"
Then more voices sounded out behind the curtain and more spotlights shone through the curtain to show all four girls.
"Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, flow sista
Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, go sista"
Parvati walked out behind the curtain so only one spotlight was on her. Parvati had on a sexual outfit, though unlike Pansy, Parvati did not gross anyone out. She wore a red and black silk corset and little black silk shorts with thin Black tights and a garter belt. She had her hair done up halfway with a feather in her hair. She also had on black heels, black silk gloves that went past her elbows with bracelets on her wrists. She had on dark, reddish black lipstick with dark eye shadow. Parvati was also carrying a short whip stick with a tassel on the end. Parvati had a headset microphone so that she did not have to hold a microphone in her hands the whole time.
"He met Marmalade down IN old Moulin Rouge
Struttin' her stuff on the street
She said, "Hello, hey Jo, you wanna give it a go?" Oh! uh huh"
Parvati started to dance in a sexual way, but she did not make it any more than PG-13 level. More voices sounded out again with Parvati adding stuff at the end.
"Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya dada (Hey hey hey)
Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya here (here)
Mocha Chocalata ya ya (oh yea)
Creole lady Marmalade "
What What, What what
ooh oh
Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir
Voulez vous coucher avec moi
yea yea yea yea
Ginny then came out from behind the curtain. She wore a black and silver corset with little black booty shorts. She had on black high boots and long short knuckle length gloves. Ginny also had on a silk top hat with a silver trim. She too, had a headset.
"He sat in her boudoir while she freshened up
Boy drank all that Magnolia wine
On her black satin sheets is where he started to freak
yeah"
Ginny's props consisted of a chair and a black satin sheet. Ginny put one foot on the chair and started twisting the sheet in a sexual fashion. Everywhere, Ginny was getting catcalls and wolf-whistles from a lot of guys. Fred, George, Ron, and even Harry's eyes were popping out, wanting to jump onstage and shield Ginny from view. All of the girls sang the chorus again. This time, Ginny added extra.
"Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya dada (da-da-da)
Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya here (here ohooh yea yeah)
Mocha Choca lata ya ya (yea)
Creole lady Marmalade
Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir (ce soir, what what what)
Voulez vous coucher avec moi"
Lavender came out with a white wig on her head. She had on a bra- like white sequined top that criss-crossed across her chest. She also had on a bikini style bottom with a huge bunch of feathers attached to the back. White gloves went past her elbows. Lavender also had a head set like Parvati and Ginny
"yea yea uh
He come through with the money and the garter bags
I let him know we bout that cake straight up the gate uh
We independent women, some mistake us for whores
I'm sayin', why spend mine when I can spend yours
Disagree? Well that's you and I'm sorry
Imma keep playing these cats out like Atari
Wear ideal shoes get love from the dudes
4 bad ass chicks from the Moulin Rouge
hey sistas, soul sistas, betta get that dough sistas
We drink wine with diamonds in the glass
by the case the meaning of expensive taste
if you wanna Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya
Mocha Chocalate-a what?
Real Lady Marmalade
One more time C'mon now"
Lavender performed her part with a tough attitude which was perfect. All the girls started singing with the last one behind the curtain adding some more to it.
"Marmalade... Lady Marmalade... Marmalade... "
Everyone was sitting in anticipation as they waited for the final girl to appear. A spotlight shone through the curtain to reveal the final girl. The other girls stopped singing and were smirking at the girl behind the curtain when the other girl started to sing.
"hey Hey Hey!"
The girl pulled the curtains apart herself and walked down the steps in a quick, sexual manner after that little part. She wore knee high, high heeled, bright red boots, a bright red and black silk corset, and little black shorts with a trim on the hips. She also had bright red gloves on. She had bright pink eye shadow with rhinestones attached to the corners of her eyes. She too had a headset.
Everyone in the hall had their eyes bugging out as far as they could go with their jaws dropped very low.
"BLOODY HELL!" Ron yelled.
Harry and Ron were the most shocked people throughout the hall. Up there onstage, dressed and dancing in a sexual manner, was Hermione Granger.
"Touch of her skin feeling silky smooth
color of cafe au lait alright
Made the savage beast inside roar until he cried,
More-more-more"
If Ginny was getting a lot of catcalls and wolf-whistles, it was nothing compared to the ones Hermione was getting. She had slipped off her left hand glove and played around with it in an enticing manner.
'Oh my God,' Harry thought. 'I hate to sound like a pervert, but WOW, she is sexy. Hey, if things work out the way I hope they do, maybe she'll perform that for me again in private'.
Ginny sang a little more with Hermione adding more at the end.
"Now he's back home doin' 9 to 5 (9 to 5)"
Parvati sang again.
"Sleepin' the grey flannel life"
Hermione sang more.
"But when he turns off to sleep memories creep,
More-more-more"
With the first two "Mores", all the girls took a step forward. On the last "more", the girls took more steps until they were dancing the same routine in perfect rhythm while singing together with Hermione adding extra.
"Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya dada (da daeaea yea)
Giuchie, Giuchie, ya ya here (ooh)
Mocha Choca lata ya ya (yea)
Creole lady Marmalade"
All the girls lowered themselves down then came back up. Then Hermione added extra to song followed by Parvati, Ginny, and then Lavender.
"Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir (ce soir)
Voulez vous coucher avec moi (all my sistas yea)
Voulez vous coucher avec moi ce soir (ce soir)
Voulez vous coucher avec moi (C'Mon! uh)"
Padma came back on stage, saying each of the girl's names they were impersonating, with each girl adding parts after.
"Christina...(oh Leaeaa Oh)
Pink... (Lady Marmalade)
Lil' Kim...(hey Hey! uh uh uh uh...)
Mya...(Oh Oh oooo)
Rot wailer baby...(baby)
Moulin Rouge... (0h)
Misdemeanor here..."
As Padma called out their names, the girls started to walk back to the curtain. They then walked up the steps and turned around to belt out one last part together.
"Creole Lady Marmalade Yes-ah..."
The floor, seats, and walls were vibrating with the noise Hermione, Ginny, Parvati, and Lavender received. All the girls had huge smiles on their faces. They walked forward hand-in-hand and took a bow together. Then Padma came forward and everyone applauded her, including the girls. Parvati walked forward and took an individual bow with much applause. After, Ginny walked forward and did the same thing, as did Lavender and Hermione. When Hermione walked forward though, she had the biggest applause out of all the girls, probably because of her shocking performance.
"WOW! That is going to be tough to beat! Right guys?" Rose said, with the guys responding joyfull. The Girls smiled and walked offstage.
Rose opened her mouth to say something when Pansy shrieked "Wait!" Everyone looked around at her.
"Yes, Miss Parkinson?" Professor Dumbledore asked.
"Why were they able to do that, but my performance was interrupted before it was over?" Pansy asked angrily.
"Because one, they were not stripping. Two, those girls kept it at a P.G.-13 level, and not at a rated mature themed show!" Professor McGonagall barked at her. Pansy crossed her arms and fumed at Professor McGonagall.
"Now, as I was about to say, here's your next act, Seamus Finnigan!" Rose said.
Seamus walked onstage to a great applause. He flashed the audience a charming smile as he walked up to the microphone. Seamus nodded to Collin, and the music began.
"Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why
But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why"
Seamus had a great voice. He sang the song so well, and his accent only made it better.
"You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say
But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for"
Seamus was getting a great reaction from the crowd. Everyone seemed to love him. Seamus then looked straight out into the audience.
"Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know"
Seamus ended the song to a loud cheer of the audience. Seamus smiled and took a bow. As Rose came onstage, Seamus waved to the audience and left.
"Thanks Seamus!" Rose said. "Anyone here know what a girl's best friend is?" Rose asked.
Muggle-born girls responded "Diamonds!".
"That's right!" Rose said. "Here is Lavender Brown to explain why "Diamonds are a girls best friend" with Blaise Zabini!" Rose said.
The lights dimmed and sparkles fell down from the ceiling. One student said "It's her, the Sparkling Diamond".
Lavender was on a swing being lowered from the ceiling. A rope was attached toe the bottom of the swing with a stage hand holding the end of the rope on the ground. Lavender wore her hair up with curls coming down on the back. She wore a silver, short sparkly dress with black elbow length gloves and a diamond bracelet on her wrists. Lavender had on black tights, black high heeled shoes, and a top hat with a silver sparkly trim. Lavenders voice sounded out throughout the quiet hall.
"The French are glad to die for love
They delight in fighting duels
But I prefer a man who leaves
And gives expensive jewels"
Lavender whispered the last word and bent backward with her arm stretched out as the stage man made the swing revolve in a huge circle, with the swing being lowered and lowered.
"A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
A kiss may be grand, but it won't pay the rental
On your humble flat, or help you feed your
pussy cat.
Men grow cold as girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don't lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend"
Lavender had a lot of the guy's attention.
"...Tiffany...Cartier...
Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl"
Lavender then blew a kiss to all of the guys.
"Ah
Come and get me, boys
Black Star, Ross Cole
Talk to me, Harry Zilder, tell me all about it!
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer"
Blaise came out onto the stage with a few other girls singing "But diamonds are girl's best friend."
"There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer" Lavender leaned forward as Blaise pretended to feel her ass while singing "Thinks you're awful nice." Lavender stood up and threw her arms up to shoulder height pretending to look offended. "But get that ice or else no dice." Lavender sang.
Girls started to sing.
"He's your guy when stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend
Oooo...Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girls best
Diamonds are a girls best friend"
Lavender disappeared for a little bit but then she popped up in a different dress and without the hat.
"Cause that's those louses go back to their spouses!
Diamonds are a girl's best friend"
Lavender finished her song to a tremendous applause from the audience.
"Good job Lavender!" Rose said. "Now to finish our second ACT is Luna Lovegood!"
Luna walked onstage with a smile on her face. Luna nodded Collin, and he started the song.
"You may find me just a little strange
I like dancing barefoot in the pouring rain
My mind is racing at the speed of light
I'll dance around you like a satellite
I'm reckless
Your speechless
Scream, shout, I love it loud
I feel the need to stand out in the crowd
Nothing's wrong with me
Nothing's wrong with me
Freak out, I stand my ground
Nothing in the world is gonna keep me down
Nothing's wrong with me"
Luna picked a good song to sing, since it described her really well.
"I say some things that might not come out right
I say them loud, and proud, and impolite
Don't try to analyze, or be profound
Cause life's too short to be so tightly wound
I'm reckless
Your speechless
Scream, shout, I love it loud
I feel the need to stand out in the crowd
Nothing's wrong with me
Nothing's wrong with me
Freak out, I stand my ground
Nothing in the world is gonna keep me down
Nothing's wrong with me"
Luna was dancing weirdly, but it made the song perfect.
"I can smile,
And I let it be
Cause I know that nothing's wrong with me
Wrong with me, wrong with me, wrong with me
If you ask about my attitude
I'll say come one,
Just get a clue
Scream, shout, I love it loud
I feel the need to stand out in the crowd,
Nothing's wrong with me
Nothing's wrong with me
Freak out, I stand my ground
Nothing in the world is gonna keep me down
Nothing's wrong with me (Nothing's wrong with me)
Nothing's wrong with me
Nothing's wrong with me (Nothing's wrong with me)"
Everyone started to clap but then a new song started.
"This one's for that special guy I love. He may not know it, but I truly love him."
"Ooooooooh
Doo Dooo Doo
I just can't help falling in love with you
Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows(Ooooh ooh ooh)
To the sea
So it goes(Ooooh ooh ooh)
Some things are meant to be
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand (Take my hand)
Take my whole life too (life too)
For I can't help falling in love with you"
Luna sang really well. She looked out into the audience toward the one she loved. His eyebrows raised up in surprise.
"Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I, I can't, I can't help falling in love (falling in love)
With you (with you)
Like a river flows(Ooooh ooh ooh)
To the sea
So it goes(Ooooh ooh ooh)
Some things are meant to be
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand (Take my hand)
Take my whole life too (life too)
For I can't help falling in love with you
Take my hand (Take my hand)
Take my whole life too (life too)
For I can't help falling in love (falling in love with you)
with you
For I can't help
falling in love
falling in love with you
Like a river flows
that's the way it goes
I just can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows (take my hand)
that's the way it goes (cuz i cant help)
I just can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows (take my hand)
that's the way it goes (cuz i cant help)
I just can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows (take my hand)
that's the way it goes (cuz i cant help)
I just can't help falling in love with you"
Luna smiled as the audience cheered loudly for her. She smiled widely and skipped off the stage.
Rose came back on stage. "Well, we've seen some amazing performances, but there is still one more ACT to go. Afterward, we will see who will be Hogwarts first Talent Showcase Winner!" Rose said. "We will be having another 15 minute intermission, so once again, us this time to get food, drink, to stretch, or go use the bathroom, and good luck to the rest of the contestants." Rose said before she walked offstage.
Let's find Hermione and Ginny." George said. Fred, George, Harry, and Ron quickly took off to find the girls. They found them still in their costumes with a bunch of guys surrounding them.
They made their way through and stepped in front of the girls.
"What was that all about?" the boys all asked in unison.
Hermione turned deep red and looked down at her feet, while Ginny had a smile on her face and looked joyful.
"Well, you see, Parvati, Lavender, and I thought about doing that, but we needed another person. We couldn't have used Padma, as she wasn't a Gryffindor. Then we thought, "Who would really shock everyone if they performed the song with us?" And we all thought of Hermione. It was extremely hard to convince her, but we were able to in the end." Ginny said with a smirk on her face.
"How?" Ron asked.
Hermione's head shot up with face even redder than before. "Don't you dare tell them, Ginny!" Hermione threatened. "I won't, I promise." Ginny replied.
"But ──" Ron started.
"Oh look at the time. Well, Hermione and I have to go change out of these, so we'll talk later. Bye" Ginny said as she and Hermione made their way out of the hall, turning a few guy's heads along the way.
Shrugging, the boys went back to their seats to wait for the Third ACT to begin.
A/N: So once again, I had fun writing this chapter. I had a lot of fun with the Gryffindor girls!
Speaking of which, I know you are either thinking "I though she said Hermione wasn't going to do anything?" or "YES, I knew Hermione was going to do something!" Yes, I lied to you all, but that was the point. I wanted to surprise you all. I am sorry for lying though. There is one more ACT to go, which as you should remember features Harry and Ron.
Now, to disclaim the songs used:
Dolores Umbridge -
We Will Rock You - Queen
Elephant Love Medley - Moulin Rouge
Lady Marmalade Moulin - Rouge
He's Everything You Want - Vertical Horizon
Sparkling Diamonds - Moulin Rouge
Nothings Wrong With Me - Pixel Perfect
Can't Help Falling In Love With You - ATeens
I got pretty tearful after I wrote out this chapter in my notebook. This chapter took all the way to the very last page in my notebook that I started to cry because to me, that showed how devoted I was to my story. Up to this chapter, my notebook has been falling apart. I have used tape to hold the covers together and to hold the pages to the cover. Just last week, (it will be May 10, 2008 for me in 3 minutes) I found my original notebook that contained chapters one and two, which made me cry as well. That notebook has fallen apart so much, that only the chapters remain because I did not want to rip those pages out. Okay, enough of my ramblings.
Now, remember, in the next chapter, PLEASE VOTE on your opinion for who you would want to win. I already have a winner in mind, but I might change it depending on your votes. So, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW!!
Love,
dogluv101
