Gems pov

I was now the day of the performance, this is the last performance too, so I have to give it my all. I had been rehearsing for weeks in end, but that doesn't mean I don't have butterflies in my stomach. Because I'm nervous as all heck! I picked a challenging song to do too. It's a vocaloid called echo. I do have a big vocal range, and can hit all the notes, plus I thought it would be impressive, that's why I picked it. I knew everyone from town would be in the audience, along with all of my friends as well. Also, a lot of school kids will be there too, because the talent show is kinda a big deal. I even picked out a back round for the song, it's a back/dark navy blue with falling white specks. There are also some other effects that will take place throughout the song. I'm reviewing all the lyrics in my head, and doing some vocal warm ups, so my voice doesn't crack, and I hit the first note. Once I'm done warming up, I'm called up to be on deck. I was taking deep breaths to try and calm down because my hands and legs were shaking. As the act was finishing up, I managed to calm my nerves and stop shaking. I told myself repeatedly "just sing like no one is listening, just pretend no one is there", when my name was called, I walked out into the stage. The spotlight helped with my pretending because I couldn't see the audience at all. The song started, and I focused on what the lyrics were and what I was gonna sing. (Play video) I started off on a low octave "the clock stopped ticking, forever ago, how long have I been up, I don't know. I can't get a grip but I can't let go", I started going up to a higher octave "there wasn't anything to hold onto though". I then mixed the octaves "why can't I see, why can't I see, all the colors, that you see. Please can I be, please can I be, colorful and free", I went back to the high octave "what the heck's going on can someone help me please, why I'm switching faster than the channels on TV. I'm black, then I'm white, no something isn't right, my enemies invisible I don't know how to fight. The trembling fear is more than I can take, who wants to fight, the echo in the mirror". Now I hit the high notes "echo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-", during the long break where I don't sing for a long period of time, I used my telekinesis to create visible wind currents around me, using my wings to lift myself off the ground. I used my aura to make some special effects, it looked like a cat running from its evil shadow. I then sang the rest of the song.

I watched as gem sang echo, using her magic for special effects. If balloons didn't capture the judges and the audience, this one sure did. Everyone was captivated by her performance, including me. Some people started cheering during the instrumental, and the whole crowd and even some judges joined in. She then sang the rest of the song, "Im gonna burn my house down into an ugly black, I'm gonna run away now and never look back", gem sang that line over and over again a few times, then went back to the chorus. Before I knew it, she was done. The whole crowd stood up, clapping and cheering for gem. Since this was the final round the judges had to pick their favorite performer after all of the performances were done and over with, and the performer they choose is the winner. I was pretty confident that gem was gonna win this for sure, cause after seeing the other performances, gem was the only one to get all the judges in their feet. The rest of the gang were also saying things like "gems totally got this in the bag", "she has to be the winner", "gems performance was amazing", and "I hope gem wins, she deserves it". Even people outside of our gang were saying things like that, it kinda made me feel proud of her. Man I love that kid, she can cook and sing like no other, and her turquoise eyes are too easy to get lost in. I found myself blushing again, and since my blush glows a bit, I had to pull my hood over my skull so I don't attract attention. I said to myself "ok sans just think ketchup, grillbys, making puns, papyrus yelling at me, etc." as my blush died down, I put my hood back down. I then saw gem and that kid who picked on her on stage, they were about to announce the winner. I could see how nervous and stressed gem was, the judges then said "we have decided who the winner of the talent show is...". I was on the edge of my seat, along with the rest of the gang. The judge then said "the winner is GEM!". Congratulations", the gang and I stood up quickly. We were all clapping and cheering , and I think paps was crying tears of joy too. To be fair, most of us were close to crying too. Gem was also crying tears of joy on stage, the judges then asked "gem are you here with anyone?". Gem nodded, wiping tears from her eyes. Gem the said "a group of monsters that I'd call family, sans, papyrus, undyne, toriel, frisk, and alphys", the judges asked "where are they?", Gem then looked and pointed at us. Undyne and papyrus waved down the camera, the spot lights hit us, and the judges said "come in up and congratulate gem". The gang then started to run to the stage, however, I just teleported up there. I hugged gem, and everyone else formed a group hug.

Gems pov

I couldn't believe that I won the talent show. What I didn't know, was that the prise for winning was a new phone. It was a(n) (Apple/Samsung galaxy) phone, the newest one too. It took a while to set up the contacts, download the music, and other things like that, but it was worth it. I got ice cream with the gang after the talent show cause 1. I love ice cream, and 2. I deserved it. My mind began to wander, and I started thinking of sans and papyrus. They always love it when I cook, and will sometimes beg me to do it. The lessons with papyrus were going great, sometimes I'll get him to cook the meal for us because most of the time I was the one cooking. Sans and I have also hung out a lot; we've gone to grillbys more than once, we often told each other jokes and puns that popped into our heads, I honestly feel attracted to him in a way. Papyrus feels like a brother to me, but sans..... I feel like he's a bit more that a brother to me. I don't know how to describe it, cause I'm still getting used to this "having friends" thing. I soon found myself falling asleep as I thought about all the friends I made, and how much they care about me.

A/n: don't worry peeps, I'm not dead. Not like most of you care, and if you do care, thank you. I've been pretty busy with school, and other things. Anyway, have a happy Valentine's Day. I'll try to update my books soon.
