Day 2

Rachel walked outside of the building in her performing outfit (Same as S3 Nationals) and paced around.

"Rachel!"

She turned around and groaned "What do you want Jesse?"

"Waiting to see if you choke again" Jesse St. James grinned.

"How do you know about that?" She looked at him confused.

"I know everything Rachel"

She rolled her eyes "I know exactly what you're doing right now, okay?" She looked at him "We didn't date for that long and I don't even know how much of that was real, but when you get nervous, you get mean and you get really pale" She giggled as he ran his hand through the hair "Then you start putting your hand through your hair like Danny Zuko"

"Listen" He sighed "I'm looking out for you"

"She doesn't need looking after" They looked over to see two girls from the Wildcats "Go away and find your group who are fighting"

"Whatever" Jesse turned and walked away.

"Thanks" Rachel looked at the girls and put her hand out "I'm Rachel Berry"

"Sharpay Evans" The one with blonde hair smiled and shaked her hand.

"Gabriella Montez" The one with dark-brown hair smiled and shaked her hand.

"Don't listen to him" Sharpay said.

"We think it's brave of you to come here and perform" Gabriella smiled.

"Well that audition lost all of my confidence" Rachel sighed.

"If you need help, we'll be in the audience" Sharpay smiled.

"Thanks" Rachel smiled a little before turning and walked towards the building.

"You alright?" Blaine looked at her.

"I'm fine" She nodded and walked inside "Let's go and find the others"


"This is it guys" Troy smiled as they walked into the auditorium.

Crystal squealed "I'm so excited"

"There's our seats" Tyler pointed before walking over and sat down.

"Nervous?" Ava looked at her brother.

"I don't get nervous" Troy chuckled sitting down next to her "You do"

"I do not"

"You do" Amelia grinned.

"Thanks A" Ava glared at her.


"Please welcome from Lima, Ohio ... The New Directions"

San: There ain't no reason you and me should be alone tonight
Yeah baby, tonight, yeah baby
I got a reason that you
Who should take me home tonight

Nate smiled watching his sister perform for the first time ... She's amazing

Cedes: I need a man that thinks it's right when it's all wrong tonight
Yeah baby, tonight, yeah baby
Right on the limb is where we know
We both belong tonight

Quinn: It's hard to feel the rush

Tina: To brush the dangerous

Quinn: I'm gonna run right to,

Tina: To the edge with you

Both:Where we can both fall far in love

All:I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment of truth
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge, the edge
The edge, the edge, the edge
The edge, the edge
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you
I'm on the edge with you, oh!
Oh-oh-woah-oh-oh-woah-oh!
On the e-edge with you

Santana spotted her brother in the audience and winked at him while dancing with the others.

With you, with you, with you, with you
I'm on the edge with you

With you, with you, with you, with you
I'm on the edge with you

Rachel looked out into the audience from backstage "She isn't here"

"She will be" Blaine smiled before walking onto the dark stage with Mike and Rory.

"You'll be amazing Rach" Finn pulled her into a hug and kissed her cheek.

"Thanks" Rachel smiled a little before walking out as the spotlight came on. She looked out in the audience at the Wildcats to see the two girls from before giving her a thumbs up.

There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window (NDs: Ahhh)

There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever (NDs: Forever)

Blaine smiled watching his performing the best she's ever done.

I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made

But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now

"Finn" Kurt whispered "Look" He pointed out.

Finn looked out and smiled when he saw the director at NYADA walk in.

Rachel turned and grinned when she saw who turned up.

There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things we'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow
Baby, Baby, Baby

"Shar, look who's here" Ryan nodded his head.

"At least Rachel is smiling" Sharpay smiled "Right?"

"I guess that's who she was waiting to show up" Gabriella smiled.

When you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now

"Woohooo!" The girls jumped up and cheered followed by everyone else.

Rachel bowed before running off straight into her fiancé's arms "She came"

"Told you she would" Finn smiled "You was amazing"

"Thank you" She smiled reacting up and kissed him then pushed him "Go and do your thing"

Finn grinned running and went onto the platform with Mike and Blaine.

Finn: I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight

Rachel grinned dancing out and joined Finn on the platform.

And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night

Puck: And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right

Kurt and Blaine: And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife

Blaine: C'mon, hold tight
C'mon, hold tight

San and Britt: Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night

NDs: I can see paradise by the dashboard light

Finn: Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night (ND: deep dark night)

Mercedes: In the deep dark night

Finn: Paradise by

Finn and Mercedes: The dashboard light

Finn: We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night

ND Boys: We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night

Finn and ND Girls: We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night (Cedes: Night)

Rachel: Stop right there!
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me
Will you love me forever
Do you need me
Will you never leave me
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life
Will you take me away
And will you make me your wife

Finn: Let me sleep on it (NDs: Sleep on it)
Baby, baby let me sleep on it (NDs: Sleep on it)
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning

Rachel: I gotta know right now!
Do you love me (NDs: Do you, do you love me)
Will you love me forever
Do you need me (NDs: Do you, do you need me)
Will you never leave me
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life
(NDs: Do you never leave me)
Will you take me away (NDs: Do you, do you)
And will you make me your wife
[With NDs:] Do you love me
And will you love me forever

ND Boys: Let me sleep on it

ND Girls: Will you love me forever

ND Boys: Let me sleep on it

ND Girls: Will you love me forever

Finn: I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god
And on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore I would love you to the end of time

NDs: So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow

Finn: But God only knows what I can do right now

NDs: I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do (Mercedes: All that I can do!)
Prayin' for the end of time
So I can end my time with you! (Mercedes: You! Yeah!)

NDs: It was long ago and it was far away (Rach: It never felt so good, It never felt so right)
And it was so much better than it is today. (Rach: And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (Rach: It never felt so good, It never felt so right)
And it was so much better than it is today. (Rach: And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (Rach: It never felt so good, It never felt so right)
And it was so much better than it is today. (Rach: And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife)

NDs: Felt so right!
Felt so good!
Paradise!

As soon as the lights went down they darted off stage, turned off their mics and joined a big group hug.

"Rachel Berry, you are a star" Santana grinned "Well done girl"

"Thanks guys" Rachel smiled "I'm serious, I couldn't go out there without your support"

"You killed it" Sugar smiled "And that women looked impressed"


"They were so good" Juliet sighed pacing backstage ... half of the girl were wearing a white dress with a red ribbon around the middle and red heels ... the other half were wearing a red dress with a white ribbon around the middle and white heels.

"And we will too" Tyler smiled and looking out where Gabriella was waiting for her cue ... the boys were wearing black shirts, waistcoat and shoes ... half of the boys had a red tie and the other half had a white tie.

"Our final group from Albuquerque, New Mexico ... The Wildcats"

The whole room went black as a spotlight came up.

Gabriella took a deep breath from her place on the high platform as the music started.

Gabi: I guess I should've known better
To believe that my luck had changed, oh..
I let my heart and forever
Finally learned each other's names

She stood up and walked down the small steps so she was stood at the top of the stairs.

I tell myself this time it's different
No goodbyes, cause eyes can't bear to say it
I'll never survive the one that's coming
If I stay, Oh no!

She smiled a little walking down the other steps to land on the stage as the girls walked out and stood on the steps.

Just walk away! Oh and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, It's gonna hurt so bad
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that
Before It's too late... Oh, just walk away!
(Girls: Walk, Walk, Walk Away) Ooh, just walk away!
(Girls: Walk, Walk, Walk Away) heyyy heyyy yeahhh

I've got to let it go
Start protecting my heart and soul
Cause I don't think I'll survive
A goodbye again
Not again!

She went up to the front and lead the note.

Just Walk Away! Oh and don't look back
Cause if my heart breaks, It's gonna hurt so bad.
You know I'm strong, but I can't take that.
Before It's too late. (Girls: Before It's Too Late!)
Oh!
Just Walk Away!

Gabriella bowed before running off with the girls "Go Wildcat"

Troy chuckled walking out as the music started.

Troy: That day the door is closed
The echo's fill your soul
They won't say which way to go
Just trust your heart

"I can't believe they're singing original songs" Kurt hissed "We're gonna lose"

"We're not gonna lose" Rachel shaked her head.

To find you're here for
Open another door
But I'm not sure anymore
It's just so hard

The lights started flashing as Troy danced around the stage.

Voices in my head
Tell me they know best
Got me on the edge
they're pushin', pushin',
they're pushin'
I know they've got a plan
But the balls in my hands
This time its man-to-man,
I'm driving, fighting inside

A world that's upside down
Spinning faster
What do I do now? Without you

I don't know where to go
What's the right team?
I want my own thing.
So bad I'm gonna Scream!
I can't choose, so confused!
What's it all mean?
I want my own dream.
So bad I'm gonna Scream!

I'm kickin' down the walls
I gotta make 'em fall
Just break through them all
I'm punchin', crashin', I'm gonna
Fight to find myself
Me and no one else
Which way? I can't tell,
I'm searchin', searchin', can't find the
Road that I should take
I should! turn right or left is
It's like nothing works without you

Troy landed on the steps and started climbing up them backwards.

I don't know, where to go
What's the right team?
I want my own thing.
So bad I'm gonna Scream!
I can't choose, so confused!
What's it all mean?
I want my own dream.
So bad I'm gonna Scream!

Yeah, the clock's running down,
hear the crowd gettin' loud!
I'm consumed by the sound!
Is it her? Is it love?
Can the music ever be enough?
Gotta work it out, gotta work it out!
You can do it, you can do it!

He went up to the highest platform then did a back flip and landed back on the stage.

I don't know, where to go
What's the right team?
I want my own thing.
So bad I'm gonna Scream!

He ran across and slid onto the floor for his final part.

I can't choose, so confused!
What's it all mean?
I want my own dream.
So bad I'm gonna Scream!

Troy bowed as the crowd screamed "Ladies and Gentleman, we are the Wildcats!"

He ran up the steps and stood behind the microphone stand as the other 5 came out.

Troy: The summer that we wanted,
Ryan: Yeah, we finally got it!
Chad: Now's the time we get to share

Sharpay: Each day we'll be together
Ava: Now until forever
Gabi: So everybody, everywhere

Boys: Let's take it to the beach, take it there together
Girls: Let's celebrate today 'cause there'll never be another
Boys: We're stronger this time, been there for each other
Girls: Everything's just right

All: Everybody all for one,
A real summer has just begun!
Let's rock and roll and just let go,
Feel the rhythm of the drums
We're gonna have fun in the sun
Now that all the hard work, work is done!
Everybody, one for all and all for one!
All for one, one!

They ran off as the other part of the group came out.

Amelia: Summer time together,
Juliet: Now we're even closer
Hope: That's the way it's meant to be

Jake: Oh, we're just getting started
Tyler: Come and join the party
Nate: You deserve it, same as me

"My brother can sing" Santana looked at the stage shocked.

Boys: Let's take it to the beach, take it there together
Girls: Let's celebrate today 'cause there'll never be another
Boys: We're stronger this time, been there for each other
Girls: Everything's just right

All: Everybody all for one,

Everybody, one for all and all for one!
All for one, one!

Boys: Everybody up!
Girls: Everybody rock it!

Boys: Take it from the top!
Girls: And never ever stop it!
Boys: It's not about the future
Girls: It's not about the past

All: It's makin' every single day
Last and last and last!
Fun in the sun
What could be better?

All: Let's have fun
Everyone together now!
Everybody, e-everybody now!
This is where our summer really begins
The very last time it's ever gonna be like this
It's a party you don't wanna miss!

"They are really good" Finn sighed.

"Better dancers than us" Puck nodded.

Boys: Guys! Show 'em we can make some moves, hey!
Girls: Girls! Show 'em we know how to groove, oh!
Boys: Here
Girls: And now
Boys: Let's turn the party
Girls: Out!
All: Everybody jump in!

All: Everybody all for one,
A real summer has just begun!
Let's rock and roll and just let go,
Feel the rhythm of the drums
We're gonna have fun in the sun
Now that all the hard work, work is done!
Everybody one for all, everybody all for one,
Let's rock and roll and just let go,
Feel the rhythm of the drums
We're gonna have fun in the sun
Now that all the hard work, work is done!
Come on, everyone let's dance!
We can't let the moment pass!
Let's make the party last!
All for one!
All!
For!
One!

The Wildcats looked around as the crowd cheered.


"New Directions" One of the judges said "The Wildcats and Vocal Adrenaline" He smiled "Good luck to you all"

"First the MVP is ... From New Directions ... Miss Rachel Berry!"

Rachel felt her team push her forward and smiled taking the award "Thank you" She turned and walked back to her team.
