A/N: Heyyy! Mega thanks to inkbender and UnderPolyJuice for giving me tips, it really means a lot, I really appreciate you also to PeaceLoveFreedom and mitchie.x for reviewing again. Your reviews are what makes me write further! Anyways, here is the new chapter. The second OC will be introduced here, to get an idea of what she looks like, search Clare Venema on google. Thanks! And please review!
A girl in a curdoroy skirt, blue cardigan and white scarf is approaching her locker. She opened her locker and the inside looked eerily similar to the Rachel Berry's locker. The gold stars, the calendar filled with musical events and the posters of Barbara Streisand and Celine Dion stuck to the walls.
The girl put her sheet music in her locker and approached the bulletin board. Her eyes widened with excitement once she saw the vandalized announcement that the New Directions are recruiting new members. She was waiting for this.
"I, Lindsay Pearce, will be the next Rachel Berry" she thought to herself enthusiastically before a green slushy hit her.
-WMHS Cafeteria-
Damian, Cameron and Warren are sitting in their usual "invisible" spot in the cafeteria.
"Where's McKynleigh?" Warren asked.
"She said she's got something to do today" Cameron answered.
"Matheus?" Warren asked again.
Damian pointed to Matheus who was talking to the girl he has been eyeing for a long time.
"H-hi" Matheus nervously said.
The girl turned around. It was Brittany. "Well hello there" she said then smiled sweetly.
Santana took notice and glared at Matheus with jealousy.
"Did Mr. Irishman send you here, Mr. Leprechaun?" Brittany asked him innocently.
Santana snorted then gestured for Matheus to leave.
Matheus slumped and walked back to their table.
"Why did he look so upset? Did I say something wrong?" Brittany asked Santana.
"No, nevermind him" Santana said.
"It's always like this for me" Matheus said. Matheus always pictured himself as a confident person. He seems to forget that people are rude to other people who are different.
"No dice?" Cameron asked Matheus. Matheus shook his head.
Damian patted him on the back and smiled at him.
Warren's phone started to ring. "Yeah? Oh hey MiKi. Huh? Okay. Be right there" Warren said.
Warren grabbed his bag and got up. "That was MiKi. Molly got in trouble again" He explained then walked away.
Molly Gordon is Warren's childhood friend. He is Molly's only real friend since 4th Grade. Damian and Cameron understood because Molly always got in some sort of trouble with Warren fixing what she had done afterwards.
Meanwhile a girl in a Cheerios uniform approached their table. Surprisingly, it was the girl they met yesterday, Ellis.
"Woah, you actually made it" Cameron said in amazement.
Ellis looked nervous. "Where's Warren?"
"You just missed him" Damian explained.
Ellis felt disappointed. She wanted to impress Warren.
"Sorry about this" Ellis said.
She closed her eyes and poured the green slushy she was holding all over Matheus. "just following orders" she added before walking away. She really looked like she was uncomfortable about what she did. But once she turned around, she put on a fake evil grin and joined the Cheerios table.
Cameron has his mouth agape in shock and Damian was giving Matheus his handkerchief.
"Way to go, Baby Doll" Santana congratulated Ellis.
Ellis didn't like what she did. She felt terrible. But she pushed those thoughts aside and starte to think about her would-be soaring popularity.
-WMHS AUDITORIUM-
"Alright everyone! We will be welcoming new members today" Mr. Schue said.
"Mr. Schue? If I may, I think getting more members is quite unnecessary and you should just recruit more when the new school year arrives" Rachel suggested. She did not want any competition for the solos in group numbers. It's bad enough that Kurt and Mercedes are there.
"No, I already decided that I would complete the Sectionals requirement of 14 members before you graduate" Mr. Schue replied.
Quinn Fabray was having a good senior year. She was offered a scholarship at a business school if she keeps her grades up. But sometimes she wished there was a man who she can share all the opportunities with.
Puck was back as the school's biggest "man-slut" since Lauren broke up with him upon discovering Puck's "random encounters", but she wants him back.
Finn and Rachel are as strong as ever and they're planning to move to New York with Kurt and Blaine after graduation.
Tina and Mike feels like they'll get married after high school and they would both attend the same university.
Brittany and Santana both received Dance scholarships at an Arts University. Brittany still remains oblivious to Santana's feelings.
Artie will go to University of Ohio to study Musical Theory. He wants to have Brittany back before graduation.
Mercedes broke up with Sam after realizing that she needs to focus on her musical career and having romantic ties will be difficult.
Sam received a lot of Football scholarships but what he really wants to do is follow Quinn to the Business School. However, their finances cannot sustain that.
Damian and Cameron entered the auditorium. Marissa and Emily soon followed, still in their cheerleading outfits. Lindsay came in and immediately approached her idol.
"Miss Berry!" Lindsay was freaking out. "you're like my biggest role model ever, can you sign this for me?" Lindsay said then handed Rachel her handkerchief.
"Why, I'm incredibly flattered! I'm looking forward to hone your musical talents, though I doubt you'll reach my caliber" Rachel was ecstatic. She was excited to meet her first fan.
"Alright, who's up first?" Mr. Schue asked.
Lindsay raised her hand immediately and walked towards the stage.
"I'm Lindsay Pearce and I'm gonna be singing Brave by Idina Menzel" Lindsay said "It shows my vocal stamina" she said then dramatically took the mic:
Don't know just where I'm going
And tomorrow, it's a little overwhelming
And the air is cold
And I'm not the same anymore
I've been running in your direction
For too long now
I've lost my own reflection
And I can't look down
If you're not there to catch me when I fall.
"She's so Rachel" Mercedes whispered to Santana.
Lindsay reached the bridge of the song and she hit the notes almost perfectly:
And I might still cry
And I might still bleed
These thorns in my side
This heart on my sleeve
And lightening may strike
This ground at my feet
And I might still crash
But I still believe
This is the moment I stand here all alone
With everything I have inside, everything I own
I might be afraid
But it's my turn to be brave
If this is the last time before we say goodbye
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
Cause it's my turn to be brave
Lindsay finished the song and everyone applauded in amazement. Rachel, on the other hand, was feeling the same thing she felt when Sunshine auditioned, jealousy.
"Wow, that was amazing, you got your work cut out for you Rachel" Mr. Schue said.
Lindsay said Thanks to everyone and sat next to Rachel.
"So how did I do?" Lindsay asked her so-called "mentor"
"It's okay, but your pitch could use a quick tune up" Rachel said rudely.
Will Schuester was excited to discover new talent. "Mr. McGinty, you're up"
Cameron punched Damian nodded at Damian. Damian got up and walked towards the stage.
Marissa glanced at Cameron and quickly looked away.
"Hi, my name is Damian McGinty and I will sing Fly Me to the Moon by Frank Sinatra":
Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling, kiss me
Almost all the girls were captivated with Damian and his accent especially Emily who was clearly smitten.
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love ... you
Everybody cheered after he finished his song.
"Does he get his voice from Leprechauns?" Brittany asked Tina. Tina just gave her a confused look.
"That was real ladykiller performance!" Mr. Schue said.
Damian stepped off the stage. Emily approached him and wrote her number on his hand then gave off a flirty smile. Lindsay approached him as well and gave him a calling card. "Call me if we ever have an assignment that requires a duet partner" Lindsay said then returned to her seat.
"You're a heartthrob, dude!" Cameron teased him.
Damian hit him playfully then chuckled.
"And that's about it…." Mr. Schue said.
The auditorium doors opened and a voice called out: "I'd like to audition"
