From Ballerinas to Showgirls

i'm so excited to be in Vegas this week..like i feel like i'm one if those people in tv shows!

|Pyramid|
"welcome to Las Vegas!" Miss Abby says as we walk in

"I wanna reflect on star power last week, some of you did really well however as a whole not so great I brought Brandon in I thought that would do the trick and the dance was a mess the competition in Las Vegas this week is thunderstruck we have four days to prepare as a group this particular group has never got placed in the overall high scores so you need to be flawless this week"

Then she goes to reveal the pyramid
She reveals vivis headshot with a cross over it ouch.

"Vivi-Anne not here.. her mother made it quite clear she is not travelling to Las Vegas so you know what this poor little girl is going to suffer her mother didn't follow the rules let this be a lesson to all of yous and all of your mothers if you don't follow the rules you don't give me 100% I will yank your number from the competition" Miss Abby tells us

I feel bad for Vivi but I don't think she even liked dance

"Next up Mackenzie" Miss Abby says as she reveals Kenzies headshot

"Honey I'm sorry you lost your duet partner however I want you to practise all of your jumps all of your tricks because next week you will definitely be competing"

"okay." Kenzie whispers

She reveals Paige's headshot next

"Paige your performance is good but you're not winning you're not placing the overalls and I feel that you should be placing definitely in the top ten this is your city you have the long legs you have the look yes? Because of that Paige you are getting a solo understood?" Miss Abby says

Paige nods

"Second row" Miss Abby says and reveal Nias headshot

"Nia last week in Orlando you finally won your category I think you need to do that all the time so I hope your mother now trusts me and doesn't question my every move I've had it with that it's what you do onstage that matters not the choreography not the costume it's you and your technique that's gonna win the 1st place it felt good to win didn't it?" 

Nia nods

"Yes. This week you get another solo and I expect you to win again" 

"Brooke, did a great job but you didn't make the top 3 yes? I understand the girls were a lot older but you can't use excuses you should blow them away you are doing a solo and just like Paige this is your city you've been talking about cirq for years since you were a little kid certainly somebody from cirq is going to be judging you here so you need to step it up and make sure they know your name at the end of the competition" 

"And on top of the pyramid..Chloe" Miss Abby says

i look to Maddie and her face is the same as mine

confusion

"Now your probably wondering why because Chloe didn't dance last week I keep hearing nobody can win because Kayla and Maddie wins well you know what..this is your shot" Miss Abby says

"Maddie and McKayla I'm giving you both a week off..no new solo" Miss Abby says

i frown, i'm a bit sad..i wanted to dance in Vegas

"Chloe you wanted this shot your mother all I hear is Maddie and Kayla Maddie and Kayla Maddie and Kayla well you know what this is your shot here we are in Las Vegas and you better win"
