Hello, now this is where Amber and Crystal get competitive a bit. The first chapter of part three. Next chapter? You'll see. There will be challenges and choices.

Part III, Chapter one, The Confrontation

Tracy and I arrived the next day.

Amber gasped in shock.

"I thought you were sent to Montrose."

"Mr. Spritzer dropped the charges."
"You'll never be on the show. You're too much like Tracy."

"Stop that, Amber! I'm different from Tracy and you're just jealous. They'll never put you back on Corny Collins, even if I didn't audition."

"You aren't typical."

"No, I am not! And I am a much better dancer than you. WE all know the only reason you're on the show 'cause your mama was the producer!"

"Don't tell me what to do!"

"You aren't even a dancer worthy of Corny Collins. I know I am a better dancer than you!"

"I am going to prove you wrong, Crystal!"

Then, she called for music.

"Music!"
The song she played was the Pony. She started well, but one thing she couldn't do was control her movement. Her feet seemed to rush.

I joined her and said,

"I'm just as good as you are!"

Tracy started music for me to dance to with Amber's dance machine. She put on the dance that Amber did when she said, "I'd like to lead a dance and dedicate it to that loser."

The roach dance.

Amber started laughing.

"You got roaches, too?"
"No, let me show you how ballroom and jazz dancing has helped me learn these modern dances!"

My feet found it easy to move and after I finished the song. I beat her. By this time, people had gathered around and were excited. I yelled to Amber,

"You are done being mean!"

People began to applaud. Then, Penny and Seaweed said,

"Hey, Amber. You lost."
I yelled,

"Admit it, Amber! You stole the camera. And blamed it on me."

"All right, I did. And there was no one there to see me get away with it."
Just then, the principal walked in.

"Amber, come with me."
Amber was suspended for a week. She wasn't sent away, but thanks to Tracy, maybe Baltimore could turn out okay.
