Five idols who all grew up with Hi-5 (first and second cast) hear that there's a spin off kids series called Amaze. They all audition for the spot. What adventures await the quintet?
Featured photo: Hi 5 House - Alex's POV Before rehearsals, Crystal decided to hold her own warm-up session. During the session, Lia was helping Karen with the back kick pose*, Mike was attempting a front spilt and Crystal and I were doing a warmup where we carried each other.

While I picked Crystal up, I asked Crystal, "Have you managed to gather an audience?"
"Think so," she replied. "Ethan and Ria helped out and they said they'll involve themselves in one way or another."
"I think so too, even if we can't guarantee. 95% of the seats have been filled, let's suppose half of them are people from your school. We just need 5% more."
"That's great. Let's work hard for the last 5% of the school hall!"
"Well, that leaves me to one more thing. What about the hosting of the concert?" Crystal asked me to "drop" her down and I did so. She continued the conversation.
"Ethan, Iris and Ria are all members of the student council. All of them have had experience hosting events so they shouldn't have an issue. They can rope in the other members of the student council to help out."

"My best friend Emily is in the student council. She and her team can help too," Karen suggested. "Singapore High School** and Prebysterian Academy partnership. How nice!"
"You two should talk to the principal. Make sure both sides agree," I advised.
"We should. And we also need tech support and emcees."
"I'm in the media broadcast club. DSA-ed*** into Prebysterian Academy through this area," Crystal remarked confidently. "I can get Joseph and Lara to emcee for us."
"Who are they?"
"Friends from the media broadcast club. They shouldn't have a problem with emceeing. And as for tech support, I want to get Charm and her CCA friend Darren."
"That's a plan! Let's work on it after rehearsal!"

Crystal's POV The next day Amaze Holding Room After rehearsal, we crashed on our seats as Karen suggested whether we wanted delivery, eating at the cafe or cooking a meal. She added on "it's 7pm, so we shouldn't waste the time to go home for dinner."
After some discussion, we decided to have chicken rice delivered to all of us. Until then, we heard from one another about the recruiting of backstage staff. We were relieved to hear that everyone was free and willing to help out with the event. That meant we were finished for the planning and we just have to focus on perfecting our set list!
Little did we know... Lara's POV What's up people. The names Lara Oh. I'm a professional dancer, member of Sunrise, member of the Prebysterian Academy Dance Club, Prebysterian Academy Student Council and Prebysterian Academy Media Broadcast Club, NDP 2023 performer and student of Prebysterian Academy.
Definitely a mouthful for a 14-year-old but I enjoy it all. Everyday is like a new adventure with all my responsibilities. I can get to meet new people and build my bonds with people I already know.
You may be wondering why tiawritez_ decided to plant me into the story. Well, she told me an idea she had to fill a school hall and I'm going to make that idea come true. - We had a free period for PE today. I know I should be studying because of the long list of responsibilities I have but I had this great idea when Iris told me about the new duties she had to handle. If Amaze had to fill up the entire concert hall, I'm going to actually make the concert hall packed like sardines.

I consulted Iris about the arrangement and once she sketched it out for me, I brainstormed ways to fill the whole hall literally. I did, and then on the back of the paper, I wrote: -fill performers from PA and the other schools. What are they even 💀 -only let Simon know about this little surprise. It's meant to be one -teach them the choreography. Check with Crystal whether it's party stree

I then used WhatsApp web to check with Crystal whether it was Party Street or not. I then went online to see which school Lia and Karen came from. Oh, Singapore High School for Karen; Bishan Polytechnic for Lia.
A lightbulb clicked.
"Iris," I suggested. "Let's make a Google form and after school, we're going to promote that we are recruiting. We are only limiting to students here in Prebysterian Academy, Singapore High School and Bishan Polytechnic!"
The class broke into an uproar. They all volunteered themselves but I knew slots were limited. Hence I chose 2 of my classmates for the performance before sending it to Crystal since we had each other's numbers from our Sunrise days.
I hope this Little contribution will be a help to Amaze! (805 words) *:
