Well I don't think the girls had a talent show,but for the sake of the story and time I'll upload the chapter anyways.
The video above is actual footage from my talent show.ENJOY!
Today was the day.After weeks of practice,todY was the talent show.Lana and I had tried to perfect everything.We agreed that Lana would do the beggining,and I would join in,then I would do the bridge.We included "punches"like the talent show director told us to do.We had this set.
There were two shows.One at day for the school and one at night for the parents.Of course,the four of us were all nervous.
Lana and I went right after Avia.Avia was the 13th one and we would be the 14th.Emmi was one of the very last ones.
Mom cooked for us eggs,she knew we couldn't have milk and cereal.
"Girls,are you nervous?"The girls shook their head,but I was nodding my head up and down.
"Oh Arianna,there's nothing to worry about.I'm postive you and Lana will be amazing."She said pouring the scrambled eggs onto my plate.I ate up and ran to my room.
Lana and I had planned to "match."We didn't really have the same shirts,so we both wore black boots,black leggings with shorts,and a blue shirt with stripes.Sadly,my shirt was strapless so I might have to wear a cardigan.
I got changed and the girls walked out wearing dresses and toms.We all walked into the bathroom to do a little bit of makeup.We were gonna be late to school,I could tell.
I found a headband and just wore that.The girls curled their hair and put eyeshadow on.I was putting on mascara and foundation.I wanted to have a natural look.
I looked in the mirror and did a thumbs up.I was set.
Even though we had the talent show today,I still had to check my homework.Once I checked my homework,I ran to get my guitar and capo.
I practiced a little,then put my guitar into the case.I waited for the girls and eventually they walked out,just in time before the bus came.
As we walked out mom and dad shouted "Good luck guys!Remember have fun up there and don't be nervous!"
"Don't forget to smile!"Dad added.
We walked down and Emmi was singing Jar of Hearts.
We got to the bus stop,and mostly everyone was fancy for the talent show.
Lana squelled and gave me a hug.
"We got this Arianna!"She said as I gave her a highfive.
Mackenzie gave us a highfive too.I have no idea where she came from,but I was not gonna let Mackenzie get this awesome day down.
"Good luck today Arianna,you too Lana."Lucas said as we boarded on the bus.Lana and I decided to sit in the row across from him.We talked about how amazing their dance was,and we kept passing compliments back and forward.
We got to school and everyone was buzzing with the talent show.Everyone was either in the talent show,didn't care,or they were just excited they wouldn't be in class for an hour.
I was happy Mrs.Smith was there so I could drop my guitar off in the classroom.
For the whole morning,I was talking to my friends about the show,and just upcoming spring break.For a minute of just laughing,I almost forgot about the talent show.Until the bell rang and my nervous thoughts came back.Now all I could do was wait.
The PA system came on as we worked on english pages.
"Good morning!I hope everyone is excited for the talent show!Classes may come at 1:00,performers please come after the 1st bell.Thank you!"And the voice was gone.

We were sitting down just talking,and the first bell rang.Lana and I looked at each other and saw Lucas and his friends running.Lana began running to the gym,and I ran to the class to get my guitar.
I grabbed my guitar and ran to the gym going through the hallway.As I reached the gym,almost out of breath,they were doing role call.The dancers were stretching,the singers were warming up,and the kids with instruments were also warming up.
I got my guitar out,put the capo on the 2nd fret,and we began singing.Mackenzie heard and began dancing.Lana and I ignored her,and eventually she danced her little feet away.
The bell had rang and classes immediately began pouring in.As each class came in,I started getting nervous even more.
The MCees announced the first acts,and up they went.The crowd clapped and cheered to the little boy dancing.The kids are really good,and the audience seemed to love them.I guess now all I could do was enjoy the show and wait until we went up.
"Avia,Lana and Arianna go backstage."The talent show coordinater called us to go backstage.As we were back there,we all did our "I love you"handshake.
As the act on stage ended,the MC's began to announce Avia.
"You got this sis,good luck!"
"Please welcome to the stage...Avia Butler singing "Welcome to New York"by Taylor Swift!"
The curtains opened and the crowd cheered.Avia began singing and of course she sounded amazing.I peeked over and she was rocking the stage like this was her concert.
Her song ended and the crowd roared with applause.We got on stage and the stage hands brought out a chair for me.
"Kill it out there sis,good luck you two!"
The MC's announced us,and Lana gave me one last hug.
"Lets do this Arianna!"
"Please welcome to the stage,Lana and Arianna singing to "Radioactive"by Imagine Dragons!"
The crowd roared once again.And the curtains opened.This was it.I remembered all our practice,the fun moments we had,and us just rocking on stage during auditions,this was it.
I walked up stage and sat down.Once the crowd quited down,I started playing the beggining.
Lana began singing beautifully,then I joined in.The crowd went silent.They didn't clap like they did for everyone else,they were silent.Our punches were great and I saw the coorinater nodding her head.
We sang the last lines,and the crowd roared with applause.Lana did a backbend walkover thingy which I didn't expect.I thought she was just doing a cartwheel!Even I was amazed at that.
Then the next acts were called up and Lana and I just enjoyed it.When Lucas went up we shouted from the side "WURK IT BOYS!"And we were just dying laughing.
Emmi went up and she sang Jar of Hearts beautifully.She was amazing!I swear she's a natural.
Now all we had to worry about was the night show.

"All right girls break a leg!"
"Again!"Dad added when they took their seats.The lights dimmed down and the show began.
Once again the acts went on,and we were called once again.
"You got this Avia?"
"Yup!"
"Break a leg!"Lana said as Avia got on stage.
Dad began vlogging and the crowd applauded,50% of the cheering was probably our family.I heard Daxton say "AIA!"
Avia once again sang beautifully,and did her fierce walk as the curtains closed.
The mc's put the chair back out and announced us again.
"You nervous Lan?"
"Nope,are you?"
"Not so much,lets kill it!"
The curtains opened and once again the crowd cheered.I waited until they were quiet,and began.
I was caught in my excitement that I accidently sang the first line with Lana,but I stopped.
As I joined in,our "Woah"was HORRIBLE!Terrible!Just horrible.
We got to the bridge and I just pretended we were in our rooms again.As I ended,Lana didnt do her backbend thingy,but it was okay,the crowd still roared.
We got down and hugged each other.I put my guitar down and now I had no worries.I could just enjoy the song.I quietly grabbed mom's phone and filmed some of the acts.
As Lucas went on,we screamed again for them.
Emmi came on and the crowd fell silent to her singing.Mom looked like she was gonna cry,and dad was vlogging of course.
Mackenzie went on,and I saw dad vlog.The crowd went wild when she did an aerial.Well,yea the girl was an amazing dancer,but a really mean friend.I saw her parents were there in the corner cheering her on.That's why she was so nice and happy.
The talent show was amazing.We recieved kisses from the family and hugs and praises.We just performed at the talent show,and 3 million people were gonna see it.
