Disclaimer: I do not own Glee,characters or song lyrics.

***********************

A month has passed, and it was time for Sectionals. This was a must win for all three show choirs. New Directions needed this win in order to keep Sue from shutting them down again. The Warblers needed the win for redemption. And Vocal Adrenaline to get back to their winning glory. All three felt they were ready, but how about.their coaches.

Kurt: Oh my Gaga, ready do you think they are ready? What if they can't.pull it off?!

Rachel: Geez way to be supportive Kurtsie. Have faith. Because I do, and no matter what happens, I believe in our kids just like Mr. Shue always believed in us. Plus I safe guarded our set list and no one is starving themselves. And knowing Blaine, he will make sure all of the Warblers are clean. No shenanigans today.

??: Aww Rachel,.where is the fun in that?

Kurt: Meerkat.

Sebastian: Betty White. Oh btw Kurt, Betty White called and wants her face and clothes back

Kurt: Very funny. Why do we associate with him again, Rachel? I'll see you with the kids in a few.

Rachel: Haha. Why do you give him a hard time?

Sebastian: I'd rather YOU give me a "hard" time but you're busy. And you're right, I need to be nicer especially since he's your best friend and I won't get any brownie points. I'll apologize and behave.

Rachel: Just be nicer and plus HE needs to be nicer too. Now,what are you doing here?

Sebastian: You honestly think I'd miss Sectionals?

Rachel: Is that all?

Sebastian: I came to see you, pretty girl, and to annoy Hunter. Let the battle for Team Rachel begin. Speaking of, any plan for afterwards?

Rachel: Are you asking me out?

Sebastian: If you would like for it to be...

Rachel: Well.......maybe...we shall see after the competition.

Sebastian: Sounds fair, need a kiss for luck?

Rachel: A kiss would be nice.

Sebastian: Well a kiss is what you will receive. Plus I'll show you who is more epic.

Rachel: Sebastian...

Sebastian: I'll play nice.

Rachel: Thank you. And its flattering by the way. I just don't want to hurt anyone. So no pressure okay? I have enough to deal with.

Sebastian: I know, pretty girl. Now close your eyes.

Rachel closes her eyes.

Sebastian leaned in kissing both eyes , cheek, and then lips in a sweet kiss.

Rachel smiled. Sebastian truly was very sweet when he wanted to be.

Sebastian: Good luck beautiful. I'll remain neutral today.

Rachel: Liar!

Sebastian: Haha caught me. Once a Warbler, always a Warbler. But good luck I know how important this is to you.

Rachel: Thanks, and now you need to live so I can meet with my New Directions.

Sebastian: Go Nude Erections!

Rachel: It is New Directions, remember the name Smythe.

Rachel smiled, as she went to meet with her show choir.

Kurt: Meerkat gone?

Rachel: Kurt, as I told Sebastian, please be nice to one another!

Kurt: Well I've already given pep talk to the group. Any last words?

Rachel looked around and couldn't be more proud.

Rachel: I want you all to go out there and be yourselves, have fun, smile and no matter what the outcome is, I'm proud of each of you. Bring it in and lets kick some Warblers and Vocal Adrenaline asses today! Blaine and Schuester are going down!

Rachel and the ND walked out to the stage area. Vocal Adrenaline were going first. The Warblers were in their seats.

Rachel: Me Shue: Good luck today!

WS: Thank you, Rachel, to you and Blaine also. My kids..both growing up so fast.

Rachel hugged Shue and walked out to take her seats. Behind her was Hunter who stared at her, winking. Rachel felt her face get warm. Then saw Sebastian sitting next to Blaine. He mouthed "Love you." Wow how is she supposed to choose? She thought.

Announcer: Welcome to Ohio show Choi sectionals 2015. Up first is from Carmel High School...Vocal Adrenaline.

V.A. Setlist

#1- Bohemian rhapsody by Queen

Bohemian Rhapsody"

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality.

Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Anyway the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

Mama, just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead.
Mama, life had just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away.

Mama, ooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

Too late, my time has come,
Sent shivers down my spine,
Body's aching all the time.
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.

Mama, ooh (anyway the wind blows),
I don't wanna die,
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all.

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning,
Very, very frightening me.
(Galileo) Galileo.
(Galileo) Galileo,
Galileo Figaro
Magnifico.

I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me.
He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
Spare him his life from this monstrosity.

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go. (Let him go!)
Bismillah! We will not let you go. (Let him go!)
Bismillah! We will not let you go. (Let me go!)
Will not let you go. (Let me go!)
Never, never let you go
Never let me go, oh.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Oh, mama mia, mama mia (Mama mia, let me go.)
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me.

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.

(Oh, yeah, oh yeah)

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
Nothing really matters to me.

Anyway the wind blows.

#2- Sister Christian by Night Ranger

"Sister Christian"

Sister Christian
Oh, the time has come
And you know that you're the only one
To say, okay
Where you going
What you looking for
You know those boys
Don't want to play no more with you
It's true

You're motoring
What's your price for flight
In finding mister right
You'll be alright tonight

Babe, you know
You're growing up so fast
And mama's worrying
That you won't last
To say, let's play
Sister Christian
There's so much in life
Don't you give it up
Before your time is due
It's true
It's true, yeah

Motoring
What's your price for flight
You've got him in your sight
And driving thru the night
Motoring
What's your price for flight
In finding mister right
You'll be alright tonight

[Instrumental Interlude]

Motoring
What's your price for flight
In finding mister right
You'll be alright tonight
Motoring
What's your price for flight
In finding mister right
You'll be alright tonight

Sister Christian
Oh, the time has come
And you know that you're the only one
To say, okey
But you're motoring
Yeaaaaah, motoring

The crowd clapped, and the Warblers made their way backstage. Hunter stopped to kiss her cheek and whispered, "I missed you beautiful. See you after the show."

Rachel's jaw dropped, while Sebastian glared at Hunter. Blaine didn't look happy either.

Announcer: From Westerville Ohio..the Dalton Academy Warblers!!

Hunter: I'm Hunter Clarington, we're the Dalton Academy Warblers, hope you enjoy the show.

It Girl"

I've been looking under rocks and breaking locks
Just tryna find ya

Knockin' them dead
Dropping like flies around you
If I get your body close not letting go
Hoping you're about to
Tell them other guys they can lose your number

Every chance I get,

Can't seem to stop you from running, running
Through my, through my mind, mind
Just keep it coming, coming
'Til I make you mine, mine
You've got that something, something

You're my greatest hit girl (greatest hit girl)
Just say this is it girl...

Hey baby...

#2 song- If Tomorrow Never Comes by Garth Brooks

"If Tomorrow Never Comes"

Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes

Blaine and his friends were on their feet. He was glad some of the old Warblers showed up for support. Blaine couldn't be more proud. And he could've sworn he told Hunter to back off of Rachel.

Rachel cheered and then headed backstage with her team.

Hunter passed by and pulled her aside, "So you and me later?"

Blaine: Hunter, lets go.

Hunter: Sooner or later, you're going to give me a chance, Rachel.

Blaine: Good luck New Directions!

Rachel: Okay ND, go out there and prove everyone wrong and have fun. I love you guys.

Rachel made her way back to her seat and found herself in between..Sebastian AND Hunter.

how did THAT happen?!

Rachel looked at Blaine,who shrugged and smirked. Rachel felt like Bella in New moon sitting between Jake and Michael at the movie theatre.

Annoucer: From Lima, Ohio its the McKinley High's the NEW DIRECTIONS!

ND Set List

Song #1: Stronger by Britney Spears

"Stronger"

(Marley)

Ooh hey, yeah

Hush, just stop
There's nothing you can do or say, baby
I've had enough

(Jane)
I'm not your property as from today, baby
You might think that I won't make it on my own
But now I'm...

(ND)

[Chorus:]
Stronger than yesterday
Now it's nothing but my way
My lonliness ain't killing me no more
I'm stronger

(Kitty)

That I ever thought that I could be, baby
I used to go with the flow
Didn't really care 'bout me
You might think that I can't take it, but you're wrong
'Cause now I'm...

(ND)

[CHORUS:]
Stronger than yesterday
Now it's nothing but my way
My lonliness ain't killing me no more
I'm stronger

(Roderick)

Come on, now
Oh, yeah

(Marley)

Here I go, on my own
I don't need nobody, better off alone
Here I go, on my own now
I don't need nobody, not anybody
Here I go, alright, here I go

(ND)

[Repeat CHORUS]

(Kitty)

Stronger than yesterday
Now it's nothing but my way
My lonliness ain't killing me no more

(All)
I'm stronger

Rachel: WooHoo! That's MY Team!

Sebastian: That was amazing,.and nice to see Marley not pass out this time.

Hunter: Rachel would've been better.

Sebastian: How would you know, Clarington? You weren't around then.

Hunter: She must have been good if you tried blackmailing her to drop out

Blaine: Hunter has a point.

Rachel: That was the past and I have forgiven him already.

Sebastian: Thank you Rachel, and I am truly sorry. Not my finest moments.

Rachel: I believe in second chances, and I mean, isn't that what you want to Hunter? Second Chances?

Sebastian: Time for Song #2.

Song #2: Chasing Pavements by Adele

"Chasing Pavements"

(Marley)

I've made up my mind,
Don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong, I am right
Don't need to look no further,
This ain't lust
I know this is love

But if I tell the world
I'll never say enough
'cause it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do
If I end up with you

[Chorus:]
Should I give up?
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place?
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up?
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

I build myself up
And fly around in circles
Waitin' as my heart drops
And my back begins to tingle
Finally, could this be it

[Chorus:]
Or should I give up?
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place?
Should I leave it there?

Should I give up?
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

Should I give up?
Or should I just keep on chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place?
Should I leave it there?

Should I give up?
Or should I just keep on chasin' pavements?
Should I just keep on chasin' pavements?
Ohh oh

[Chorus:]
should I give up?
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste
Even if I knew my place?
Should I leave it there?

should I give up?
Or should I just keep chasin' pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

Rachel smiled with pride. Blaine did as well.

Blaine: Wow, well done Rachel and Kurt. We may have a tough competition. Either way, I'm proud of both teams.

Rachel: I agree.

Blaine: Its time for the judges to make the decision. Lets head up to the stage.

Sebastian: Good luck, beautiful.

Rachel: Thank you.

Hunter smirked,.and mocked Sebastian is a nasily voice "Good luck, beautiful."

Sebastian: Just remember Hunter, I don't give up what i want. I want Rachel.

Hunter: So do I.

Sebastian: Then stop being a prick and fight for her. Not by being a jealous, immature ass.

Jeff and Nick: Damn Face off!

Trent:100 bucks on Sebastian. Anybody?

Blaine: Guys we're all friends here. Lets go.. *whispering to Trent* 20 bucks on Sebastian and $20 bucks on Hunter, I'm staying neutral.

Soon everyone was on stage.

Announcer: The results are in. In third place, from Carmel High School..Vocal Adrenaline! Congratulations!

After the celebration Blaine offered to take both teams out to celebrate.

Sebastian: So Rachel will you escort me to this celebration?

Hunter: Aww Sebastian we would love to thank you.

Sebastian: I meant Rachel.

Rachel: How about we all go? I'll be on the arm of two of the hottest guys around. That's fair right?

Sebastian: Whatever you want hun.

Hunter grabbed Rachel's hand. "Come on Smythe, try to keep up old man."

Rachel smiled, kissing both guys cheeks. "It will be fun Sebastian."
