As the sun was setting on the small archipelago, a steam boat was about to dock in at Haiiro Village. It was the last boat for that day and as it slowly docked in the small village it let out a it's steam whistle. "Does the captain really have to do that... Oh well... it was time to get up anyways..." A Young man got up from his cabin bed and placed his feet in his white moccassins. He rubbed the back of his head as he got up and took a white tie hanging from a hanger on the wall. The young man tied it neatly on his neck in a winchester knob and corrected the black shirt underneath. he then took a vest that was hanging on the back of a wooden chair and put it on. Buttoning up neatly he rolled up his sleeves and put on his checkerd wristband. "C'mon, Tom... We've arrived...". The man was talking to the giant white cat sleeping in the corner of the room. the cat got up and made a big yawn. "Yeah, yeah I know... It's like an alarmclock wasn't it?" the man said and grabbed the guitar standing next to the doorway. He strapped it on his back and walked out of the room. Tom the giant cat followed tough still quite sleepy. The man travelled to the archipelago from the grand line and seemed eager about going back. "These blues are intresting... Finding rough talent is hard on a sea where expert navigation is required..." the man said as he walked off the ship. He was rubbing his right hand through his dirtyblond messy hair and his left was resting in his pocket. He seemed deep in tought... Tom followed slightly sleepy as the man walked into town. "Please... Spare some coin for my starving family...". A man in rags was begging for every bypasser's change. He seemed desprate but was either ignored or shouted at. Comments such as "Get a job, bum!" or "What did you ever do for me to deserve my money?" were common. The man got on his knees... "Please..." he said as tears rolled down his eyes. The man in a sharp black and white outfit was walking through the docks heading into the town of Haiiro Village. "Hey stranger! Might helping us out for some coin?". One of the dockworkers shouted at him. They seemed to have a pile of work. "No thanks. I got enough coin for now." the man responded and kept walking. the town was nice and seemed well build all around. Not all too fancy but it wasn't the shithole he lived in back home. After a short walk he met the beggar. The sharp man approached the beggar. "You seem in some deep trouble... Here... Take this." the blond man said as he reached in his pocket and pulled out a handfull of coins and some paper. It was Beli of course. he gently put it in the beggar's hand. "T-t-thank you!! You s-s-saved my family! What's your name stranger?" the beggar responded. "I suggest you take a walk down the docks aswel. they were looking for someone willing to work there. You could earn some extra coin while you're at it." the blond man said and got up. "Oh... Thank you..." he said. He seemed dissapointed to not even know the name of the generous man. "My name is Alessandro D'Anglis Da Sabaody. I only helped you because I was just like you once... Make something of your life." The blond man said as he walked away with the giant white cat following him. Edited by GlasgowSmiley, Feb 25 2011, 11:49 AM.

OOC "Wait, Mr. Da Sabaody!" The same man's voice called out as he went after the man, catching up with him while pulling something out of his pocket. "Listen, I know its not much, but I wanted to give you this, since I think you might be able to do better than I could at it." He said, pushing the piece of paper that he pulled out into the man's hand before turning and running off, more than likely to use the money that he had received. If Alessandro looked at the paper, he would see that it was for a singing competition at a place just nearby of where he was at, and the winner of it would win a mystery gift! The poster said it was extremely expensive, so it sounded like something worth winning in a contest. |

As Alessandro looked at the paper he was surprised. "How did he know?" he said as he put the paper in his pantspocket. Maybe this entire trip was simply him following the lines of a scripted destiny? A destiny to win a simple singing contest? Really now? Alessandro didn't give it much thought. "I might aswel compete... Who knows maybe the prize is okay enough." Alessandro winked Tom to come along to the nearby plaza where the contest was held. The big white cat happily skipped along with it's master. As Alessandro took a few steps he made a smirk smile on his face. It was a combination of happiness and scheming. "Tom... How about you go on ahead... I want to sniff up some culture." he said as he strapped his guitar to Tommy. The cat meowed, nodded and decided to move on to the plaza via the streets. Alessandro rubbed his hands a little and proceeded stretching his fingers. After a short fullbody stretch he looked at his left side. The buildings in this town were all build next to eachother. The perfect town for some freerunning. Alex made a short sprint towards the house and ran up the wall a little to grab the bottom of the window on the second floor. He pulled himself straight and made a short hop to grab the top. now that that he had a small foothold he jumped again to grab the edge of the roof. After pullling himself up he had a nice view of the town. The plaza was indeed very nearby and it seemed as if some crowd was gathering. Alex made a run over the rooftops to jump across the street. It felt great to be almost hovering in the air. That one moment when the adreniline slows down your surroundings and puts your senses on sharp. Alex enjoyed the moment a bit too long as his landing was quite like no landing at all. He should have pulled through during the jump. At the last moment he gripped the rooftiles with both hands. Suddenly the one in his left hand slipped away, leaving the blond man dangling on the roofs with only one hand. After the close call he adjusted his grip and climbed up again. He took a seat and started thinking. Perhaps he jumped too soon? Or did he really not pull through with the jump? Noone of it really atter but perfecting this skill was a crucial element of his physical condition. He looked off for a bit and noticed the sunset. The orange of the sun was slowly melting away into the deep blue of the ocean. 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder' they say but anyone could agree on this sight. Alex got up again and looked down on the streets. He saw a lantern dangling from a pole attached to the house. He jumped down on the pole and quikly proceeded to jump down and grab the lantern. He swung himself a little on it and landed safely on the ground. He would have continued his parkour session but he had no idea when the contest was so it was in his best intrests he didn't dillydally for too long. As he looked down the street on wich he had just landed he already saw the plaza. A short walk was enough. Alex put his hands in his pockets and started walking. In the meantime Tom was already there. The big cat didn't have much to do and the commotion was starting to shift over to his own appearance rather then the contest. It's not everyday you meet a giant white domestic cat. His eyes were the most attractive feature on the big cat. The cat looked around to find his master but realised he must have still been running on rooftops. The cat went over to a nearby bench and layed down somewhat curling up. His nap was inturrupted earlier so maybe he could catch up on it now. The cat was a tight sleeper but wether or not he could ignore a nearby crowd was another thing. Alessandro walked in the plaza. "So... What's this contest all about..." he tought as he came closer to the gathering crowd. Edited by GlasgowSmiley, Feb 27 2011, 06:12 AM.

As Alex approached the center of the crowd, it seemed there was someone at a sign-up sheet table, shouting to the crowd. "The Hitsuji's singing competition is going to be starting in a little bit! Be sure to finish signing up onto our sheet here in a moment!" A person who was working the table yelled out, as people who had already signed up started backing away allowing people who were waiting to sign up to come up and enter the contest. OOC

Alex walked up to the table and signed his name on the sheet. He guessed there wasn't much left to do but wait from now on. Tom was supposed to be here aswel tough Alex didn't see him yet. He looked around to find the big cat but had a hard time trying with the crowd blocking most of his view. Making his way through the crowd, Alex had a better view on the plaza now. He found Tom again as he was sleeping next to a bench. Alex walked over and petted his head a little before taking a seat on the bench. Waiting was not a great passtime but at least he could check out the competition. Alex puled out his ligher and a pack of cigarettes. He put the pack to his mouth and gripped one that was sticking out. Pulling the pack of he only needed to light it. Perhaps smoking was a bad idea since it made the throat dry... But then again the only othter passtime would be some practice or guitar playing and that would attract to much attention. Unwanted attention. Authorities wouldn't care but Alessando wasn't in the mood for giving a show. It would be like he's simply the appitiser for the main course. Alex wouldn't settle for that. He was the main attraction here and he would prove it to the entire town by singing his heart out. While having a good voice is one thing, bringing a song with passion is quite another. Alex made small puffs of smoke from the bench as sat there waiting. He was scouting the crowd for the more serious competition but didn't really notice anyone yet. Perhaps they were hiding form sight? Alex yawned. "Perhaps a nap isn't such a bad idea... Like I have anything else to do..." he said as he lifted his head back over the bench. He was looking straight up int he sky and had quite the bored look on his face. |

After Alex had signed it, it seemed that the wave of people wanting to sign up slowed down extremely, as a few last minute contestants came and signed up their names to get a bite at the prize. As the people working the event started getting the list of names together, an announcer took the stage near where the sign-up table was, as he pulled out a Den-den from his pocket to start speaking to the crowd. The man, dressed up like a disco-dancer with a green and red afro, adjusted his throat to start speaking, before starting with it. ”Ladies and gentlemen, how are you all doing this fine day on Hitsuji!” He yelled out into the Den-Den as the crowd that had started to gather yelled back in joy and excitement to see this contest finally starting. ”Now, before we get this thing on the road, my boss thinks we should give all the contestants a bit of a look-see to see what they all will be competing for, and what one lucky winner will be walking away with!” The man yelled out, as he pointed to the middle of the stage. A few stage operators wheeled out a cart with a curtain on it, and left it near where the man was standing at. ”Here we have a special treat for you all to win this year!” He yelled out, before taking a hand and yanking the curtain off the cart, revealing an odd-looking fruit sitting behind a glass dome. It was yellow, with a lot of star-shaped swirls covering the entirety of it. ”Ladies and gentlemen, a devil-fruit! One of the rare-treasures of the sea!” He said, gesturing to the object as the crowd yelled out in joy once again, obviously enthused at the rare sight that they all were beholding in front of them. ”Now, since we have that out of the way, let’s go ahead and meet the judges for this here singing contest this year!” He said, as he started gesturing behind him while some of the staff came back and snuck the fruit back behind the stage. While the announcer was starting to talk a bit about the judges before revealing them, someone near Alex started coughing a bit. ”Damn cough,” A girl with silver hair and green eyes muttered to herself, sitting on a bench with a banjo lying right next to her. ”I just hope it goes away before I have to go up and sing,” She said, sighing. She brought the banjo into her lap and started strumming it slightly, not really paying attention to what was happening on stage but still trying to prepare for when she would go up. Announcer |

Just as Alessandro was about to fall asleep he heard someone talking over a Den Den Mushi. An excentric man to say the least was announcing the start of the competition. Not exactly it's start but he was able to motivate a crowd it would seem. The best thing was really jsut that Alex could now get a short peep at the prize. He didn't expect much from it, a super rare item or whatever the paper said... In the blues rare items are very rare and the ones you do accasionally encounter weren't worth all that much. He got up and stood on the bench to get a better look at stage. As the curtain was pulled off Alessandro's eyes opened wide and he almost fell off the bench. He adjusted himself and took a seat again and started thinking."No way... A Devil fruit? Those things are worth hundreds of million beli... For a singing competition? That's enough money to live a lifetime off the good stuff... But the powers are intresting too...". Alessandro sat there thinking out loud as the big cat next to him seemed to be enjoying his nap. "I'm gonna win this thing no matter what!". Alex smiled and had decided on what to do. He would rock this concert upside down and win that Devil Fruit. If he wouldn't win, he could always steal it from the winner. Not that he was a fan of it but this was all for the poor and needy. Destiny works in strange ways but Alex felt that it was his destiny to obtain that yellow fruit over there. As the Announcer had made a comment about the judges a girl on the bench next to the one Alex was sitting on coughed. Her cough didn't sound all too serious but singing with it would not only be painfull for her but for the entire crowd. Maybe best? Less competition to deal with... At first he was okay with it but when the girl started playing a little and Alex reconsidered his opinion. It was good karma to help people... But then again stealing was a bad one? but stealing could be justified... Without going in too deep on the subject he got up and searched one of the pockets of a bag Tom ahd strapped to him. It had all sorts of medical supplies and he was sure he had some cough medicine or soemthing here... Alex walked up to the girl to get her attention. "Hey, I heard you were coughing. If you'd like some help with that, I suggest drinking this bottle. Not all at once tough. 3 times a day, about 2 teaspoons." he said as he handed the girl a bottle of coughmedicine. "Take it or leave it... I just want a fair competition for everyone." he said as he turned around and walked back over to Tom. "May the best man win... Or well, women in some cases right?" he said as he waived his hand and took a seat on the bench he was sitting on before. "Now... what's up with these judges..." |

The girl, surprised to see anyone try and help her out at the moment, hesitantly took the medicine from Alex, before taking a bit of a drink from it. Surprisingly it helped her throat out a bit, making it much easier to not cough anymore. "Thanks," she said, calling over to where Alex was seated at. "My name's Jessica," she said, before also turning to look at the stage to find out about the judges for this year. "And now!" The Announcer yelled out, pointing to the curtain behind him as some outlines of people were seen behind a large desk, probably where they judged from. "Let's meet this year's judges!" He cried out, as first part of the curtain moved to show a woman seated behind the desk. "Introducing the lovely Sara Petinsky as our first, happy-go-lucky judge!" The announcer cried out, as the older looking woman smiled and waved to the crowd with her orange-looking jumpsuit on. "I'm happy to be a part of this wonderful event!" She said, still smiling while doing so. Sara Petinsky "And now, onto our next judge, and I only have one statement to say to introduce him: Where's my dawgs at?! Presenting the Rapper Tyrone 'The Bone' Johnson!" The announcer yelled out again as the curtain was moved once again to reveal a dark-skinned man in black and orange clothes, along with a flat-billed hat pointed up and a pair of sunglasses on his face. "This contest is dope, brah." The man's choice of words as he spoke into his den-dent hat was next to him. Tyrone 'The Bone' Johnson "And now, a man who needs no introduction. Presenting the man who started this contest this year, and is also one of the silentest men to have been on the seas, Mr. Hyde Frecklhiemer!" The afro man yelled out, his last introduction as the last part of the curtain opened up to an odd looking individual. He had grayish brown, shoulder length hair underneath a black top hat. He was wearing a black, almost style-y tattered suit, along with having a pair of sunglasses on his face. He showed no emotion, and simply sat there without a word. Hyde Frecklhiemer "As you all know, these three will be judging the competition for this year, so you'll have to impress all three of them to win!" The announcer yelled into his snail once more, as the crowd all cheered, knowing that the competition would begin soon. |

Alex smirked as the girl responded. Perhaps it was rude of him not to mention his name to her at all but he wanted to see what the judges were all about. Usually someone's appearance can tell much of the music style they liked. Then it was quite simple to win a certain judge over if he just sang the right song. As the judges were introduced Alex noted they all must have a diffrent style in mind. He figured the old lady wouldn't go for something too hardcore so a soft smoothing song would do for her. Perhaps a little charm in there too and she would most likely vote for him. The man with flipped hat and the sunglasses looked like hte hip-hop/R&B/rap type. Maybe Alex knew a song that could impress both but then it was all down to that other judge. He looked mysterious and seemed quite the badass. Alex couldn't read a thing out of him... Alex turned his attention to Tom who seemed to be waking up now that crowd went hyper. He yawned with a wide open mouth. A small kid could just walk in the huge gap he just created with his mouth. "Oh dear... You schouldn't sleep so much..." he said to the cat. The big white responded with a snappy hiss. Alex flinched back a little. "Yikes! Do whatever you want then!" he said as he got up. He winked him to follow but Tom was a bit too lazy and somewhat not happy with alex's reaction and decided to sleep on. "I didn't mean you that you lazy bum!" Alex yelled in an annoyed tone at him. before approaching the stage he went over the the girl who was named Jessica. as he came over he made a slight bow and had a smile on his face. "How rude of me I didn't introduce myself..." he said and raised his head. His hair felw charmingly in three bangs revealing his bright yellow eyes perfectly. he looked like a bad boy in every sense of the word. "My name is Alessandro. I wish you the best of luck, Jessica." he continued. He toned his voice to be smooth and charming. Not that he was trying to charm her, but being friendly to people usually made them friendly to you in return. Alex looked over to Tom and noticed he was still trying to sleep. "That cat is just sooooo~ lazy during the winter..." Alex said as he took a seat next the girl. "How's your throat feeling? I'm sorry if it didn't really help. It's all I can do for you without a perscription." he said and streched his arms out over the bench. "Best that this competition starts as soon as possible... On the other hand, I might have more time think things over while it's still like this...". Alex was thinking over his situation. That devil fruit was quite appealing... Suddenly a major question popped into his mind. "Say... Why are you competing for a devil fruit anyway?" Alex asked as he turned his view on the girl. He tried to make eyecontact as it was a bit more personal. |

Spoiler: click to toggle Jessica glanced towards him, trying her best to give a smile, before it devolved into another cough. This one was shorter, and she seemed to recover from it much faster. Even just one dose seemed to have helped a lot. "I'm not all that interested in the fruit. It might help me make it big, but really I just want the exposure. It's not every day that you get to stand up in front of people and play your music. I'm just hoping someone's happy with what I make." She seemed about to say something else, her eyes screwed shut as she took a deep breath, before the announcer's voice rang across the area, startling her into another coughing fit. This one lasted until she slammed a hand against her chest, grimacing. "Ladies and gentlemen! Here's our first competitor!" A young boy ran onto the stage, glancing down at the audience. He took a deep breath, and launched into his song. He tripped over himself in the first ten seconds, and quickly began to shiver as he glanced down at the judges. Sara's smile was stretched far enough to look like a rictus, making even her good mood seemed strained, and Tryone "The Bone" seemed to be showing no emotion at all. He winced slightly, even flinching away from the missed notes. After about thirty seconds, the music was ended by Hyde Frecklhiemer. He drew the gun from his side, firing it just above the boy's head, and then setting it down on the table. "Yowza, folks! Looks like Hyde didn't like that one! What do you two think? Sara?" "Well...it was very...unique..." "And you, Tyrone?" "How do I say this dog...what were you thinking? This isn't some edition of 'World's Worst'; this is a competition of the best, not the worst! You needa sit down, kid. I'm sorry, but that was just whack." The boy ran from the stage, crying like mad. There were a few moments of silence, before the next person stepped forward. This one was a very thin, very tall man of about 20. He had on a pair of glasses, and as he walked towards the microphone he began to pluck at his pants. "M-m-my name is Janson, And I-I-I'm going to sing a so-song I wr-wro-wrote for everyone..." He took a single deep breath, and leaned forward. His mouth opened, and... When the music faded, there was a moment of silence, before the announcer spoke. "WOOOW! I am STUNNED! Kid, you got promise! Now, let's take it to our judges..." "Well...it was a little loud...and it wasn't really what I was expecting. But I would've enjoyed dancing to that, if it wasn't for my hip!" "Yo, yo, that is what's UP, man! That thing hit me right here! That's my new groove, kid!" The microphone was placed before Hyde, only to resounding silence. After a few seconds, the announcer pulled it away, and shouted. "There you go, folks! We have our first person to move on to the next round! Who would like to go next?" Jessica nudged Alex at this point, nodding her head towards the stage. "Good luck." |

So the girl was in this for the fame? Alex hadn't tought about that aspect. In the end it didn't matter for him. Infamy or fame... It was still people knowing your name. Some would admire you, others would hate you. No matter how this turned and twisted his name would resonate the seas in the end. As the competition started Alex watched how the first contestant failed to do his part. The man in the tophat and sunglasses stood up and even fired his gun at him to stop it. Some people just couldn't handle the pressure on stage and it was most likely this kid couldn't do that aswel. He was young and he would still get his chance to shine. The other man was most impressive... The song he made while being such a stutterer... Alex would have to step up real good. Jessica hinted he schould go up with a well meant good luck. "Luck has nothing to do with it... But thanks you anyway." he said as he stood up and went for the stage. He made his way through the crowd and was now about at the base of the stage. Some people seemed annoyed that he was trying to get up front but Alex reassured them he was a contestant heading for the stage. Once at the base he raised his hand: "Mind if I go next?". Alex jumped on stage after that and took the microphone. "Hello, My name is Alessandro. I hope I can make you enjoy the song I'm about to sing." Alex said with a smile. Alex tried his best tot sing it with true passion. He was interacting a little with the crowd, getting down in a squat sometimes to make it look as if he was singing to a certain girl in the crowd. Moving left and right on the stage, somewhat interacting with the crowd in total near the end of the song. If it was a public apollogy it was one that was truely meant. As the song finished he put the micropohone in it's rightfull place. He looked over to the judges to see if they liked it. He probably couldn't beat the stuttering "Scatman" by pure voice power and he knew that himself, but he schould have them with the passion he sang the song with and the feelings it brought up. Alex didn't show any signs of being nervous in font of the crowd or the judges. He had done a few performances already and could hold his cool very well in a crowd like this. Besides it was a simple competition, not a worldwide broadcast. Edited by GlasgowSmiley, Mar 5 2011, 07:28 AM.

The song seemed to have gained the attention of much of the audience, making them all bounce and scream. It seemed that, even if he was no Scatman, he still had a good chance of winning. The announcer bounded forward, his afro bouncing to and fro wildly, as he spoke into his microphone. "Ladies and Gentlemen, this looks like a good competition this year! That was another SPECTACULAR performance! But let's go to our judges!" Sara was holding two thumbs up, smiling wildly, as she spoke in her high-pitched normal tone. "Kid, you're going places; I can tell! You have my vote, and I hope you had as much fun singing that as I had listening!" Tyrone was nodding his head slightly, as he spoke into the microphone. "Yo, dawg, that was pretty ill. I'm still shaking from it! I'm waiting to see what you're gonna pull out next time; you're moving on, dog!" Hyde made no motion, except to make a slight cough. The announcer, however, was shoving Alex off the stage already, as he spoke. "And next is a town native, and this year's favorite! Jessica, get on up here!" The young girl walked up to the stage, seeming not to exude any fear at all, as she plucked a few strings on her banjo. A moment later, she closed her eyes, and began to sing. This time, everyone was leaning forward expectantly. Sara was clapping, her face a wide grin, as she nodded enthusiastically. "Girl, you are GREAT! I'm glad to see someone is really representing the girls in this; I'm with you all the way, and I hope you really impress me next round!" "Man, what can I say? That shit was bangin'. I'm gonna have to give my vote here, too. You go, shawtie!" This time, surprisingly enough, Hyde gave a reaction. Slowly, his hands began to clap together, resounding around the area, as Jessica took a bow, and walked off stage. Two hours later, things had truly heated up; there were only three competitors left: Alex, Janson, and Jessica. It seemed it was time for the final round. |

The song seemed to have gained the attention of much of the audience, making them all bounce and scream. It seemed that, even if he was no Scatman, he still had a good chance of winning. The announcer bounded forward, his afro bouncing to and fro wildly, as he spoke into his microphone. "Ladies and Gentlemen, this looks like a good competition this year! That was another SPECTACULAR performance! But let's go to our judges!" Sara was holding two thumbs up, smiling wildly, as she spoke in her high-pitched normal tone. "Kid, you're going places; I can tell! You have my vote, and I hope you had as much fun singing that as I had listening!" Tyrone was nodding his head slightly, as he spoke into the microphone. "Yo, dawg, that was pretty ill. I'm still shaking from it! I'm waiting to see what you're gonna pull out next time; you're moving on, dog!" Hyde made no motion, except to make a slight cough. The announcer, however, was shoving Alex off the stage already, as he spoke. "And next is a town native, and this year's favorite! Jessica, get on up here!" The young girl walked up to the stage, seeming not to exude any fear at all, as she plucked a few strings on her banjo. A moment later, she closed her eyes, and began to sing.

As the night fell on the small town in the Archipelago the constest was reaching it's peak. It was down to the "Scatman", The girl with the cough and Alessandro himself. The crowd seemed to like his performance and it was boosting his confidence a bit. But it would be hard to beat a young man who sings so strongwilled while being a stutterer. And of course on the other hand there was that girl who seemed to have magic vocal cords or something. Alex didn't regret helping her a little before the contest but he didn't expect her to be such a top competitor. The stakes were high and nobody was planning on losing this. Competing for fame or the prize, It didn't matter for Alex. This contest was already decided by fate and he was just living out the script. Sitting backstage with the rest of the contestants, Alex was tuning his guitar. Tom was sleeping next the box Alex was sitting on. The big white "beast" had no intention of getting up at all. it was hard enough to move him here and retrieve the guitar anyways... Alex finshed his tuning and made a quik strok over all six strings. It sounded good and would do well in his next song. He looked up and decided to make a conversation: "Congradulations on making it so far! It's nice to see and hear some true talent as soon as I arrived here..." He said in his usual calm tone of voice. "I admire you singing your heart out Janson and Jessica, you're doing more then just okay even with a sore throat. You both deserve the win but that doesn't mean I'm going down without a fight. Let's give it our best, hhm?". Alex spoke in more in a nonchalent way, not really caring about the win. The Devil Fruit would end up in his possession one way or another. "Well then... Best I don't keep the crowd waiting then. Good luck to you both!" he said as he left the area and headed for the stage. As he arrived on stage he greeted the crowd and made a slight nod at the judges. "Once again, I hope I can make you feel the music in this one. Enjoy.". After that he got behind the microphone and waited for his que from the band. Alex was really into the groove this time. If the crowd didn't like it he wouldn't care. He sang his heart out and did his best. He didn't really engage the crowd this time and was more on the spot, doing his thing. Perhaps it wasn't enough to win... That man in the top hat was very picky... No he did his best and that was that. Now to wait for his judgement whatever it may be. |

The applause was absolutely tremendous this time, and the judges seemed to be quite happy with what they had heard. Sara was nodding slowly, and clapping. "Well, I'm more and more impressed every time you step up here! That was quite a song; it made me feel good to see such a young kid putting so much heart into something!" She nodded enthusiastically, and then glanced towards Tyrone. This time, his expression was inscrutable, until he shrugged. "Iunno, dog...I mean, I liked YOU just fine. You're still the bomb, kid. Don't change a thing. But that choice of songs was just...wack. I'mma have to say no on this one." He shook his head, almost truculent. All eyes were on Hyde, seeming to fill the air with a pregnant silence. It was clear that everything rested on him, that his vote could make of break this. It seemed he was almost prepared to shake his head, when Jessica ran forward, beginning to whisper in his ear. He cocked his head, giving no reaction, but obviously hearing what she said. The girl ran off, obviously staring at him with expectance. Finally, he gave a single curt nod, and then leaned back in his chair. Seemed that this time Alex had made it. Janson walked forward, smiling nervously, and then clapping his hands together. "W-well...here I go..." When the song ended, there was a resounding silence. Again, Sara was nodding, clapping her hands happily. Tyrone, however, had his lips pursed, as he shook his head. Hyde, meanwhile, gave no reaction at all, and only after a few moments of being watched did he finally give a thumbs down. Jansen walked off the stage slowly, as if crushed under a great weight. Looked like it was down to two now. As jessica walked forward, she glanced towards Alex, looking almost sad, as she plucked at her banjo. "I...I can't do this. I'm sorry. Alex should be the winner. Just...let him have the prize. I was just happy to play." She nodded once, gatefully, and then ran off the stage, towards Alex. "You did great, Alex. Thank you for helping me to play at my best today. I'm just glad I didn't ruin my first real shot." Edited by Yaksha, Mar 6 2011, 07:19 PM.
