His Ice Princess

Performance Day ~

Luna and the other judges would be watching the performance live. 화영 was excited. Her outfit today was cute. She wore a cream white turtle neck. She layered a brown knitted vest. For her bottoms, she wore a gray plaid skirt and some white socks as well as her classic white sneakers.

Her hair was down and her natural curls were shown. She had these silver dangling earrings and some silver rings. Her necklace was this gold chain with a purple birth stone (amethyst). The earrings were a gift from Yeonjun as for the necklace, it was from Minho.

She liked using the gifts her seniors give her because she actually really likes accessories. Anyways, Luna went to the production room first and the others looked at her, stunned. She looked like a little kid going to school. Very cute.

"Wah, your outfit is cute 우나씨" ZICO complimented the girl's outfit for today. "Thank you ZICO 선배님. I guess it was inspired by Any Song" Luna replied, mentioning the older male's song. He laughed and Luna took her seat.

She greeted the producers and the other judges. She started placing her earphone on and got to work while waiting to go to the stage were the two units from each group was going to perform. 화영 felt her heart beating faster than earlier.

The girl just found out that instead of Jay, the other I-LANDERS decided to switch his place with Sunghoon since he managed to do the spins. Luna felt it was a little sketchy but she couldn't blame them since Sunghoon can do them because he was a figure skater.

After a while ~

The judges and producers were currently being led to the venue of the test. Luna was excited once again. She found her seat and started looking at the clip board in front of her.

She started writing some things down while they were waiting for the trainees. Meanwhile, why not let's see what the trainees were doing.

NI-KI was currently asleep. Sunoo wasn't in a great mood since he was a little sick. The I-LANDERS were talking with the other Grounders.

The staff was getting the stage ready and they had to wait until it was time for them to get on it. The 10 trainees could see the judges and saw Luna.

Sunghoon was blushing at the sight of the girl not knowing two others were looking at the same person as well.

Hwa-Young felt like someone was looking at her and decided to look around to see who they were. Unfortunately, she couldn't find who was looking at her.

She let out a sigh and started playing with her necklace and fidgeted with her rings. Everyone was nervous, back in I-LAND while Heeseung was practicing, his voice suddenly cracked.

They just laughed it out back then but now, he was a little worried. NI-KI woke up since it was time for them to go on the stage.

They fixed their outfits and walked towards the stage, away from each other. The 10 trainees got on the stage from two different ends.

Luna smiled at them as they entered. The MC started announcing that it was the start of the I-LANDERS vs Grounders.

화영 felt her heart beating rapidly. She looked at the trainees with sincere eyes. Whoever wins, she'll be proud of them.

Though if the I-LANDERS win, Grounders wouldn't be able to take another step to go to I-LAND. On the other hand, if Grounders win then they can have a chance to move to I-LAND.

These outcomes will rely on their performances. It was time to start the final test. The vocal untis will be performing first.

Currently, they were choosing which vocal unit will lead the test... I-LANDERS will go first. Sunoo and Daniel sat down on the Grounders side while Heeseung and Geonu got ready with their positions.

Luna placed her earphone on and started watching the stage. Unaware that two certain I-LANDERS were looking at her direction.

The instrumental music started playing. The lights vanished, the performance started.

Like a Butterfly ~

The I-LAND vocal unit finished their song. The judges were clapping as well as the others. It was time to give them feedback.

First up was PD Nim. The executive producer gave his remarks about their performance. He was happy about it.

The second person to give a feedback was Luna. The girl got the mic in front of her. "Ah, Heeseung and Geonu" she started saying while looking at the clip board.

"The performance was beautiful and both of your voices matched well with the song. I felt a warm sensation with your performance today. That's all and good luck" Luna finished with a soft smile.

She placed the mic down on the table and everyone clapped at her remarks. The two I-LANDERS thanked the girl by bowing their heads down.

Luna tucked some strands of her hair behind her ear, revealing the dangling silver earrings Yeonjun gave her.

Next up to perform was the Grounders vocal unit. Sunoo and Daniel got ready as Heeseung and Geonu took a seat with the dance unit of I-LAND.

The lights turned off again. The performance started with Sunoo's vocals. The whole performance was a blur to Luna. All she knew was, she enjoyed it very much.

Save Me, I need your love before I fall ~

The Ground vocal unit finished. Everyone clapped while on the other hand, Luna was wiping something away from her eyes.

She clapped as well and gave the duo a very soft smile. The producers gave their feedback to the two.

Luna was given a chance to say something to them since she was pretty close with the trainees. "선우아 and Daniel" she said their names.

She paused for a while and let out a soft sigh. "I don't know what to say about your performance today" Luna said.

It made the two very worried as well as the Ground dance unit. 화영 looked up from the table and made eye contact with the two.

"All I can say is, I enjoyed your performance very much. I don't have any corrections to say about it but I do have a question for Sunoo" Luna said.

"Yes 선배님?" Sunoo replied using the microphone he had. "Are you perhaps not well today?" Luna asked and Sunoo replied.

"I'm fine Luna 선배님. I'm just a little sick but I can manage" he replied. Luna gave him a small nod.

"Nonetheless, you managed to pull an amazing performance today. Great job" Luna said and Sunoo bowed his head.

"Daniel, your voice especially the rap part made your part stand out. The facial expressions were also great. Keep it up" Luna said to the other male and he bowed his head.

Heeseung and Geonu were a little worried since Luna only gave them a small feedback. If they only knew the reason behind it.

화영 doesn't need to give the I-LANDERS long feedback because they had been doing such a great job since day 1 and she knew that they required less guidance since they already got the hang of their talents.

The Butterfly unit got on stage for the scores. Luna and the other judges were talking among themselves about the scores for the two units.

They finished and the scores were announced...
