The girls stretched as hip hop music filled the dance studio, Areum and Eunjeong sat on the floor, Nell and Lauren stretching their legs as Jinhee and Yumi stretched their arms. The six were about to do the first practice to prepare for the final battle. They haven't found out if they are in the Top 2 yet, but they wanted to be prepared. The glass door opened, Ms. Lee walked in carrying a thumb drive. The girls had only been practicing with the demo Seungwan sung for, they all crowded around the computer as she clicked on the file. Music filling the room.

"Excuse me." A student said interrupting Jinhee's English class, that someone turning out to be Jinyoung. Whom smiled at the teacher as he carried a black envelope, walking back to where Jinhee sat handing one to her than to Chaeyoung from Twice whom was in her class. He gave his little sister a thumbs up as the class cheered, the two opened the envelopes and glanced at each other before back at the cards.

As lunch came around, Meraki sat at their table all of the envelopes in the center as they watched Twice laugh and smile to each other. Yonggi came to the table and sat down throwing his card on the table as did the other boys, Yumi looked between Yonggi and Jihyo confused.

"You won?" She asked, Yonggi looked offended by her question before nodding.

"Obviously." He said, opening the envelope and showing the card with the time and date on it.

"But, so did Twice." Lauren said, BTS looked at the nine girls shocked and confused. Namjoon stood up, walking over to the group.

"We tied." He said, as the girls turned to him to which Jihyo shot up shocked.

"What?" She said, as he showed her their card. "Wow. So its a Top 3 battle now."

Nell texed away, Eunjeong scribbled in her notebook, Yumi and JungPD were reading over lyrics, Areum stretching on the floor along side Lauren, and Jinhee had her headphones in. Eunjeong stood up and sat next to Jinhee as the others continued as the school came to an end, looking over the younger's shoulder she spotted 'Final Showcase Demo' on her screen. Grabbing the younger's phone, taking the headphone cord out of the jack the music followed through the practice room. They turned to the youngest, as she stood up.

"Ms. Lee wanted me to sing the demo. She wasn't sure what song to choose so Hansool and Jinyoung helped me record it." She said, looking around trying to find an escape route.

"I'm glad she did. I wasn't sure if this song would suit you guys or not." JungPD said, a proud smile on his face as the door opene to the practice room. Nell gasped and rushed to him not fast eough as Lauren exclaimed.

"Taeyong?! As in NCT Taeyong?!" She said, and about collapsed if Areum didn't hold her up right.

"I-I-I can explain." nell stammered as Ms. Lee walked in, the song ended and she looked Taeyong up and down as he bowed to her.

"I see you are doig well." She addressed him before turning to the girls with a folder, handing each of them a piece of paper. "Here are lyrics for In The Same Place. You will each decide who gets what part. Seungwan was an angel and recorded the demo." She said, plugging in the thumb drive as Nell hit Taeyong on the arm.

The next two weeks were going to be crazy with practice and preparing for their final evaluations of the year.
