This week we're in Vegas and I'm so excited
Brooke carries me off the bus as I sip on my apple juice and as we head into the studio Abby says
"Welcome to Vegas"
"Yayy" I cheer

"I wanna reflect on StarPower last week" Abby says I'm wearing a little pink dress with my hair in bunches. We haven't changed into our dance wear yet

"Some of you did really well however as a whole not so good, I brought Brandon in I thought that would do the trick and the dance was a mess"

"The competition in Vegas this week is thunderstruck and we have 4 days to prepare"

Then Abby reveals the pyramid but Vivi Anne's picture is crossed off

Chloe  Maddie
Brooke   Nia
Paige  McKenzie  Daisy  Vivi Anne

Paige, Brooke, Nia and Chloe have a solo but Maddie doesn't. It's like the first week she hasn't

Then Abby says "Daisy there is a 3-5 category and I want you to perform a solo in it, you're not the oldest    but you're not the youngest either, I believe you can win against the 5 year olds"

I smile I'm so happy to have a solo

"Let's talk about the group number, where are we again" Abby asks

"Las Vegas" we all yell

"Does anyone know another name for this city"

Brooke raises her hand

"Sin City" Brooke says

"Good job Brooke"

"Sin City" Abby repeats "The concept of this contemporary routine is Sin City"

"Put your bags away come on let's go" Abby says and we all go to get dressed and put our stuff away

Their practicing the group routine and guess who's not in it. ME! AGAIN!

Me and McKenzie are in a separate room and we're messing around and doing tricks and it's so fun. It's a nice break from Abbys constant yelling

The next day I'm working on my solo and it's really hard I can't concentrate and I can't pick it up.

"Daisy what are you doing" Abby screams
"DAISY YOU'RE LATE FOR THAT BACK-WALKOVER"
"Point the toe"

"Im sorry" I sob

When we finish I go to Mommy and she hugs me and then we go home. Im really scared to go tomorrow because Abby is so mean.

But the next day Abby takes us out for ice cream

"What do you think this spoon is for" she asks

"Ice cream" we say then we cheers all our spoons

We're having fun and then Abby brings up the group dance, of course.

The next day when we're practicing Brooke says her shoulder hurts but she still dances, she is so brave.

When we're back at the hotel room Mommy is talking about how mean Miss Abby is

"It's not fair how she constantly yells at you guys but Maddie could forget her whole solo at nationals and she'd be like 'oh well at least Maddie tried' but so did everyone else" Mommy says

I don't really care that she treats Maddie so well I just wished she liked me

I go to bed and I'm so nervous for competition tomorrow, I haven't practiced my solo much so I really hope it goes well

The next day we arrive at the competition and because group is first Mommy is getting Brooke and Paige ready for that. We go the audience and watch them perform and they are so good

"I'm seventh place routine 488 sinful"

Oh Abby is gonna die

"Well done girls"the moms say as the girls come out

Now we're getting ready for solos and mine is first out of us all. I'm getting ready and getting into my costume before running it through.

Her costume

Paige comes out and her costume is too big and Mommy is not happy and she's yelling which is just stressing me out even more than I already am. Then Abby pulls Paige's number.

I'm in the wings waiting to go on stage

"Please welcome to the stage entry 46a shooting star"

I run on stage and start the number, it's going so well until I forget, I try to improv but I can't I run off the stage and run round into the audience. I run to Mommy and I cry so much. She takes me back to the dressing room

"Miss Abby is going to hate me" I choke
"No you made one mistake" Mommy reassures "it's not fair she gave you no time to practice, she payed no attention to you and the choreography was way to advanced"

"Daisy" Abby says as she comes in the room
"You made the studio look bad and you made me look bad"

"No Abby you don't say anything to her you never treat her fairly or any of my kids"

Paige picks me up and takes me out the room and I cry into her, all the girls are hugging me then Mommy says we're leaving and she calls us a taxi back to the hotel

I'm really scared I don't wanna go back I hate it.

A/N: I'm so sorry for no updates I've been very busy as I have exams but they finish in just over a week so I'll be doing more regular updates then
