A.N.: Weeeeeelllll, I said I was gonna update this for Quinntana week even though this is Pezberry. Y'all deserve a treat every now and again. Forgive my absence please! I beg of you!

Disclaimer: No disclaimer bc I'm a badass.

When Rachel and Santana showed up to school on Thursday, they were bombarded by the other glee club members, a good amount of which had quit the day before as well

Even though Rachel loved being the center of attention, this crowd was a little bit too dramatic for her, and that's saying something.

Rachel are you really quitting Glee Club?

Did Santana talk you into it?

Are you guys back together?/em/p

Are Quinn and Brittany like a thing now?

How did it feel to tell Schuester off, Satan?

"Alright guys, dang! Back up!" That got the group to back off.

"What are you guys even doing here? Don't you all have mandatory morning meetings with Schue and the forest of curls on his head?" Rachel elbowed Santana as a reminder that he still was their teacher. Kurt spoke up sheepishly.

"No. You can't attend mandatory morning meetings if you're not a part of Glee Club." Rachel just looked at them until she snapped actually making Santana look at her cautiously.

"Why?! Why would you all do that? How stupid can one group of people actually be? You all are not quitting. We left because of our own problems with Mandee. I greatly appreciate you guys showing where your loyalties lie, but come on. We've been working so hard this year. More than 50% of the members cannot just quit overnight. It's unethical and completely unfair to Mr. Schue; no matter how in the wrong he is." Santana placed a calming hand on Rachel's shoulder.

Quinn and Brittany, who heard the entire conversation, came walking up to the group.

"Rachel's right. I absolutely agree with her. Kurt, Mercedes, you guys definitely cannot quit. I know you all wanna help and you don't really like Mandee, but we need you. We need you to be our eyes and ears in the Choir room. You guys are the biggest gossips we know, and 2/3 of McKinley's biggest divas; use it to your advantage."

"Hey, Rachel can I talk to you for a minute?" Mercedes asked in the soft tone of voice she rarely used.

"Sure, what was it that you wanted to talk about?" Rachel asked cautiously not sure if Mercedes was going to hound her about Santana again.

"We all know that you and Santana are like broken up or whatever, but I wanted to apologize for Sam and I. We may have gotten a little harsh the other day. It's just that I hadn't seen you that annoyingly happy with somebody since you started dating Finn the first time and Santana's not exactly known for being the nicest person around."

"Yeah that's true, and I appreciate the sentiment, but you only know her in these halls. She's a totally different person outside of school and in a relationship. I appreciate you looking out for me, but I'm not the same doe eyed sophomore I was before." The darker diva figured that was fair and nodded with a small smile playing on her lips.

Mercedes linked up with Kurt who stayed waiting for her. The pair strode off to the Choir room with new found purposes and attitudes. Rachel took over for Quinn again.

"Mike and Tina, I greatly appreciate your protest with the rest of us, but you all really need not quit. Not to call you out, but you two have the least to do with this situation. Plus, Mike, you got that big Nationals dance number to be working on, and Tina with Santana and I gone, that raises your chances of a solo by 42%. Don't give that up over petty nonsense and certainly don't let Mandee take your solos." The pair nodded dutifully and turned on their heels, leaving Rachel to move on down the line.

"Noah, I know you definitely don't like her since she ruined your party, but you're the muscle in this situation. We need you on extended security and bulldog detail. You and Santana also need to keep Mandee's athletic minions under wraps."

"You got it, Jewish-American Princess." Santana high-fived Puck and smirked to herself. Not only was it hot when Rachel took control like that, but this was helping her plan immensely. She turned to see Quinn and Brittany with the exact same look on their faces.

"Tiny, me, Q and, Britt gotta head over to Coach's for a Cheerio's meeting. I'll-" Rachel just looked at her with a mildly enraged face and interrupted her.

"I'm sorry what? You three what?" Santana sighed. She knew what this was about. She just couldn't believe she was pushing it in front of Q and Britt.

"My fault. Q, Britt, and I." Once the secondary couple realized what just happened, they burst out into fits of laughter with Quinn adding in whipping motions to go along with the whipping sounds Brittany was making. Santana could literally feel her hot blush burning the tips of her ears. Rachel just smiled adoringly and waved the trinity goodbye.

"Come on you two! We've gotta go over this plan." The giggling twosome followed behind the raven haired girl, still laughing loud enough to draw attention.

The walk to the Cheerios' locker room seemed to be enough to sober up the two blondes. They were now in a secret lounge behind the showers trying to finalize the last parts of their plan.

"Okay, this is working out perfectly. With Kurtcedes working the research front and Quinn with the ability to dig dirt and find out information on anyone faster than humanly possible, everything is coming together perfectly."

"Alright Nikita, what's the next phase after that?"

"Well, my dear Quinnifer, Brittany will then help me play a little alphabet game. With the information gathered from Phase 1, I will then torture her with the idea that someone else knows her secrets. I'm gonna leave her little snarky notes that list off each secret using the letters in the alphabet. I will also be running offensive with Puck and getting the footballers and hockey players under control and help them properly welcome her to WMHS." Quinn and Santana grinned at each other deviously. Brittany obviously knew what this meant. Slushies. Lots of slushies.

"Britts will also be using what I like to call 'Scary Britt' to remind the Cheerios who their leaders are." San gave a wink to Brittany who returned it without a second thought. Quinn growled menacingly.

"Watch it, Lopez. That's my girl you're winking at." Santana rolled her eyes.

"Down Lucy Q, I already know this. I'm totes cool with it by the way. Anyway, if all that fails, which I highly doubt, we'll move into the evasive action phase. That includes pulling everybody out and putting Finn in as a giant distraction for Mandee. I'm not sure what else, but we'll cross that bridge if we ever get to it." Santana concluded by closing the cap on the marker with which she was writing with on the giant dry-erase board in the corner.

"San? Do we really have to cross a bridge? They're scary and I can't swim very well." Both HBIC's looked at her fondly and smiled.

"No Britt, it's just an expression. No bridges, I promise." Brittany smiled at them and a second later, the bell rang signaling the end of homeroom. They decided to meet up again for lunch to share any progress. Until then, the three split up heading to their individual classes not knowing that down the hall, a tall figure watched their every move.

A.N.: Okay so I have no idea why the chapters came out in code format like that, but I fixed them so read up! Until next time...
