A Musical New World Chapter 3, a Naruto + Glee Crossover fanfic

Chapter 4

Rachel's POV

"We are in line to be the most popular kids in this school over the next couple of years. Prom King and Queen, homecoming court royalty, I'm not giving up those crowns just so you can express yourself!" I hear Quinn Fabray quietly scold Finn. I might have been eavesdropping on them while I was getting stuff in my locker.

"Look, you're making a too big of a deal out of this." Finn replied.

"Morning Rachel!" someone greeted me. I closed my locker and saw no one other than Naruto Uzumaki leaning on the locker in front of me.

"H-Hi Naruto! So, ready for your audition?" I cursed myself silently for stuttering. Rachel Berry doesn't stutter!

"Yeah, but there's been a bit of trouble. Coach Sue's a slave driver. I can't keep awake enough to practice! Well, no use in complaining! I think our training's paying off! I broke my own record earlier!" He said excitedly.

"Hey Naruto! Why don't you go ahead? There's something I need to talk to Berry about." I was about to reply when I was rudely interrupted by Quinn Fabray sending Naruto off. Naruto looks at me then shrugged.

"See ya in class Q, Rachel! Q, play nice!" he said while walking off. No! Don't leave me with her!

"Time for some girl talk, man hands. You can dance with him, you can sing with him, But you will never have him" She demanded. What? Naruto's not in the glee club yet and she's already pushing me away? It took me a while to understand that she's talking about Finn. Good thing I didn't comment about Naruto.

"I understand why you'll be threatened, Finn and I have made a connection, but I'm an honorable person. I don't need to steal your man. I have plenty of suitors of my own. Every day, glee's status is going up and yours is going down…Deal with it." It would have been much better if I wasn't slushied as soon as I said that. I swear I can still hear her giggling.

-Line Break-

"Hell to the nah. First of all, you try to bust my face again, and I will cut you. And also, this song is terrible." We just finished performing in glee but after I almost hit Mercedes with my dance move, she had a hissy fit.

"Okay, no, no, it's not the song. You guys just need to get into it." Mr. Shue tried to defend his song choice.

"No, it's the song. It's really gay." Kurt said

"We really need modern music, Mr. Shue" Artie agreed.

"I'm sorry, guys. We don't have time to discuss this. We're doing this song at the pep assembly." Mr. Shue said firmly.

"In f-front of the whole school?" Tina said exasperatedly.

"Exactly!" Mr. Shue said, not noticing Tina's tone.

"They're going to throw fruit at us. And I just had a facial!" Kurt complained.

"I'll press charges if that happens-"

"Guys, I can't express to you how important this assembly is. We need recruits. There's six of you. We need twelve to qualify for regionals. We have no choice or the club is over" Mr. Shue said as he so rudely interrupted me. "I know you guys don't like this song, but we took nationals back in '93 with 'freak out'. It's a crowd-pleaser. Trust me."

"I'm so dead" Finn said to himself. We all are. If we perform this song, we'll be committing social suicide.

-Line Break-

"Rachel, bulimia is a very serious messy disease." I was with Ms. Pillsbury in her office due to being caught trying to throw up in the restroom.

"I don't have bulimia. I tried it, I failed it, and I won't try it again. It grossed me out." I said defensively.

"Okay, but I still want to talk about the feelings you had that led up to you trying to puke your guts out." She asked me.

"I want to be thinner… and prettier like that Quinn girl."

"And why is that?" she asked again.

"Have you ever liked somebody so much, that you just want to lock yourself in your room, turn on sad music and cry?"

"No…Uh, but a boy crush, huh? I know about that. I mean, not now. I mean it takes me back in the day. Like, a long time ago, I knew about that. You know what? You need to remember, Rachel, to protect your heart. I don't care who he is. If he doesn't like you for the way you are, or if he's… you know, married with a baby on the way, that's not worth the heartache. You don't want to compromise… yourself… for that." I got the feeling she's rambling and looked out to where she's staring at.

"Have you ever tried telling him how you feel?" she finally snapped out of her daze.

"He just figured out that I exist and worth talking to." I said glumly.

"Um, okay. Here's what I think. Common interest are the key to romance. All right? So find out what he likes and he'll see you in a positive way, and you might end up doing something that you never would have expected."

-Line Break—

"The celibacy club is now in session. Thanks to a school rule that says we have to let anyone join the club, we're welcoming a new member this week. Whatshername Berry."

"Where are all the boys?" I immediately inquired.

After paying Sue for the photocopies and Finn declining practice due to a celibacy club meeting, I deduced that since Quinn Fabray, Santana Lopez and Brittany Pierce are in the celibacy club, his best friends, Naruto's got to be in the same club. Which lead to me being here, in front of all the Cheerios.

"Down the hall. First half hour, we separate. Then we come together to share our faith."

It took a while but pretty sure, I was bored out of my mind.

"God bless the perv who invented these. Remember the power motto, girls." Quinn said while she had Santana twirl around to showcase her skirt.

"It's all about the teasing, and not about the pleasing." All the Cheerios said together.

"Let's pair up for the immaculate affection." Quinn Fabray said as soon as the boys arrived. I immediately looked for Naruto. He's the reason I'm here after all. I saw Naruto and waved at him. He waved back and was about to approach me when someone latched on his arm. I could vaguely hear her asking him to partner up with her.

I turn away because, duh! Of course Naruto will accept! Not only is Brittany Pierce hot, but she's his best friend!

"Now remember, if the balloon pops, the noise makes the angels cry."

I looked as my partner, and was immediately disgusted. A perfect example of a stalker-ish nerd/loser.

"You enchant me" he said awkwardly.

"Stop it!" Santana complained to her partner, Noah Puckerman.

"Take it. Ah, yeah! Oh!" was her partner's perverted reply. I was once again distracted by the sound of a balloon popping and a shout of, "Finn!"

"It must have hit my zipper." He defended.

"All the guys have zippers, Finn!" Naruto's partner, Brittany, replied. I could hear her from over here giggling from something Naruto said. Looks like those two, unlike everyone else here, were actually okay with it was having fun.

"You know what? This is a joke. Did you know that most studies have demonstrated that celibacy doesn't work in high school? Our hormones are driving us too crazy to abstain. The second we start telling ourselves that there's no room for compromise, we act out. The only way to deal with teen sexuality is to be prepared. That's what contraception is for."

"Don't you dare mention the 'c' word." Interrupted Quinn.

"So what was your point, Rachel?" Naruto asked, silently asking me to continue.

"You know want to know a dirty little secret that none of them want you to know? Girls want it just as much as guys do." With that, I finished my rant and walked out.

-Line Break—

"I officially call this meeting of the glee club in session."

"But Mr. Schuester isn't here." Artie said.

"Mr. Schuester isn't coming. I paid a freshman to ask him for help with irregular verbs" I explained.

"I am so sick of hearing you squawk, Eva Peron." Mercedes complained.

"Let her talk." Finn said firmly.

"I have another idea for the assembly."

"Can I, once again, stress my most strenuous objections to this social suicide?"" Artie stated

"They're not going to kill us, because we're going to give them what they want."

"Blood?" Kurt tried to say helpfully.

"Better."

-Line Break—

We were waiting back stage for the curtain to open so we could perform. We're no longer concerned about social suicide ever since we talked about our 'plan'

Get up on this!
Get up on this!

Ow! Baby!
Salt and Pepa's here!

(Now wait a minute, y'all
This dance ain't for everybody
Only the sexy people
So all you fly mothers, get on out there and dance
Dance, I said!)

Salt and Pepa's here, and we're in effect
Want you to push it, babe
Coolin' by day then at night working up a sweat
C'mon girls, let's go show the guys that we know
How to become number one in a hot party show
Now push it

Ah, push it – push it good
Ah, push it – push it real good
Ah, push it – push it good
Ah, push it – p-push it real good

Hey! Ow!
Get up on this!

Yo, yo, yo, yo, baby-pop
Yeah, you come here, gimme a kiss
Better make it fast or else I'm gonna get pissed
Can't you hear the music's pumpin' hard like I wish you would?
Now push it

Push it good
Push it real good
Push it good
P-push it real good

Ah, push it
Get up on this!

"Mr. Schuester, I'm very sorry." I said as soon as Mr. Shue was out of Principal Figgins office.

"Do you understand what you did today? You lied to me. And ruined our chances. No parent in their right mind is going to let their kids join glee now. Oh, and here's a list of songs we're aloud to sing."

"What's a 'luftballoon' ?" I asked as soon as I read some of it.

"Look, I know how much you love glee and I understand why you did what you did. But I don't like the way you did it."

"Want to sit?" I ask Finn as we start our break. I was helping him hit higher notes and we decided to take a break. I luckily made a small picnic in case we get hungry. "I was wondering why you asked me to help you with your singing. You kicked butt at the assembly."

"Well, this is my only chance to be, you know, good like you."

"You think I'm good?" I asked him incredulously

"Well, when I first joined, I thought you were kind of insane. I mean, you talk way more than you should, and to be honest with you, I looked under the bed and made sure you weren't hanging out under there. But then I heard you sing. I don't know how to say this, but you touched something in me right here." He said while gesturing to the right side of his chest.

"You're heart's on the other side of your chest." I corrected him.

We drank the drink I brought, Virgin Cosmos, in a little toast.

"Oh, you got a little cosmos right… here" he said while moving his hand to my lips to wipe it off.

"You know, you can kiss me if you want." I said without thinking. I wasn't stupid. Even if Quinn's dating Finn, I could tell she like Naruto. I'll be a less likely target if I dated Finn instead of Naruto.

"I want to." And, I have a bigger chance with Finn. Our lips met in a chaste kiss when he suddenly stopped.

"Did I do something wrong?" I asked him concernedly.

"No, no! I gotta go. Look, please don't tell anybody about this, okay?" He said while running off.

I wasn't even planning to! Did he think I'll tell anyone listening just to get popularity?

What I didn't know then was that I didn't have to tell anyone for them to find out. Just a small shadow by the door when Finn left, a single student saw the entire thing. A single blonde student.

No one's POV

"I have to say, it was a surprise to get you trying out." Mr. Shue commented.

"I'm sure you read about this in the school paper. Finn and I have been an item for a while now. So what kind of girlfriend would I be if I didn't support him?" Quinn said haughtily.

"Well, let's see what you got." Mr. Shue said.

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little pray for you
While combing my hair now,
And wondering what dress to wear now,
I say a little prayer for you

Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me.

I run for the bus, dear,
While riding I think of us, dear,
I say a little prayer for you.
At work I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time,
I say a little prayer for you.

Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever, and ever we never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me.

I say a little prayer for you
I say a little prayer for you

My darling believe me, (beleive me)
For me there is no one but you!
Please love me too (answer his pray)
And I'm in love with you (answer his pray)
Answer my prayer now babe (answer his pray)

"Let me get this straight. You're joining glee club? I was expecting Naruto asking me that, now you." said Coach Sue

"I'm sorry, Coach Sylvester, but something is going on between Finn and that thing. You saw how it was undressing him with its eyes. Please don't kick us off the Cheerios." Pleased Quinn.

"Well, I'm not. You know our deal, Coach Sue. I run, I win and I conquer track. In exchange, you get no say in my personal life" Naruto bravely said.

"Well, a deal's a deal." Coach said while addressing Naruto. She then turned to Quinn and said," Cease fire on the waterworks. I don't want to see it, I don't want to hear it. You know, Q, when I first laid eyes on you, I was reminded of a young Sue Sylvester. Though you don't have my bone structure. But it wasn't till this very moment, I saw how alike we really are. You three are going to be my spies. I need eyes on the inside. We're going to bring this club down from the inside."

"What am I? Invisible?" Naruto complained.

"Would you like to be my spy?" Sue sarcasticly asked

"No, but I would still like to be offered the choice" was Naruto's cheeky reply.

"Too loyal for your own good…" said Sue under her breath.

"And I'm going to get my boyfriend back."

"I/We don't care so much about that." Sue and Naruto said in unison.

She threw a playful glare at Naruto but decided against giving Sue one.

Naruto's POV

"Hey, guys! I'm Naruto Uzumaki, I wasn't able to attend the audition but I guess better late than never. Um, I'll be singing "Hero" by Sterling Knight, from the movie Starstruck" I nodded to the drummers, closed my eyes and started singing.

I'm no superman
I can't take your hand
And fly you anywhere
You want to go (yeah)

I can't read your mind
Like a billboard sign
And tell you everything
You want to hear, but

I'll be your hero

I, I can be everything you need
If you're the one for me
Like gravity I'll be unstoppable

I, yeah, I believe in destiny
I may be an ordinary guy
With heart and soul
But if you're the one for me
I'll be your hero
