1178 Words
Xander's POV:
The DJ starts doing his thing and the music starts playing. "Will Danielle be okay?" Shine asked, looking worried. I looked at them with confidence. "Guys, you haven't seen Lockette's hidden side." They looked at me confused. "What do you mean?" Sky asked. "Just watch her." I smirked. Then Lockette starts singing.
Now that I have captured your attention
I wanna steal ya for a rhythm intervention
Mr. TSA*, I'm ready for inspection
Sh-sh-show me how you make a first impression
Oh, oh
Can we take it nice and slow, slow
Break it down and drop it low, low
Cause I just wanna party all night in the neon lights
'til you can't let me go
I just wanna feel your body right next to mine
All night long
Baby, slow down the song
And when it's coming closer to the end hit "Rewind"
All night long
Baby, slow down the song
Oh oh oh oh
Yeah, baby, slow down the song
Oh oh oh oh
Yeah, baby, slow down the song
If you want me I'm accepting applications
So long as we can keep this record on rotation
You know I'm good with mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Breathe me in, breathe me out
So amazing
Oh, oh
Can we take it nice and slow, slow
Break it down and drop it low, low
Cause I just wanna party all night in the neon lights
'til you can't let me go
I just wanna feel your body right next to mine
All night long
Baby, slow down the song
And when it's coming closer to the end hit "Rewind"
All night long
Baby, slow down the song
Oh oh oh oh
Yeah, baby, slow down the song
Oh oh oh oh
Yeah, baby, slow down the song
Breathe me in, breathe me out
The music's got me going
Breathe me in, breathe me out

Lockette was singing, dancing, jumping around. She even went on stood on the bar as she sings. There were also dancers that joined her. She joins the dancing. She was like having a concern. This is her hidden side and I'm the only one who knew it. But now, everyone knows. She kept on telling that her voice was ugly but I disagree. She has an amazing voice. I looked at them and they all seemed shocked and surprise. They couldn't believe it what they just saw. "What did I tell you?" I smirked with pure confidence. That’s my sister. She’s talented in every way. "I want to reply that." Trevor said shocked. "Don't worry, I got everything." I said waving my phone. “I know Danielle for years but this is my first time to see her sing.” Shine said, still in shock.
The crowd was going wild, they are cheering for Lockette's name. Some are dance and jump around, they’ve gone crazy. After Lockette finish her song everyone started shouted her name. The DJ called back the champions. “This so lit; however, there could only be one winner. Who are you going to choose?” The DJ said. “Did you choose the champion?" He pointed at Kayla, Ally and Belle but they were the only ones who clapped.
"Or the Challenger, Danielle." he grab her hand and raised it and everyone starts clapping, cheering and screaming her name. "She won." Xaria and Shine yelled. The two went to the stage and gave her a hug and glared at the other three. Kayla, Ally and Belle looked pissed and they went backstage.
The crowd was cheering more! More! More! Lockette could believe it. “Danielle, you are really amazing. That’s a wonderful performance. You have a great voice.” The DJ said. “Thank you so much.” Lockette said. “I didn’t expect that I would win.”
I smiled at that comment. She always stays humble. She is not the person who would brag everything. She keeps it low profile. That’s what makes Lockette her. The crowd is still chanting her name, asking for another song. “I think we have crowd favorite.” The DJ yelled. “Do you want another song from her?” he asked and crowd yelled “YES!”
The DJ looked at Danielle as he gave the box. She took a piece of paper and hand it to the DJ. Instead of saying it out loud, the DJ shows them the song. Shine, Xaria, and Lockette agreed on the song and the DJ went to his station to play it. The song started to play. It was “Hey now” by Hilary Duff from the Lizzie McGuire show.
[Shine, Xaria, Lockette]
Hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
[Shine]
Have you ever seen such a beautiful night?
I could almost kiss the stars for shining so bright
[Lockette]
When I see you smiling I go, "Oh, oh, oh"
[Xaria]
I would never want to miss this
'Cause in my heart, I know what this is
[Shine, Xaria, Lockette]
Hey now, hey now
This is what dreams are made of
Hey now, hey now
This is what dreams are made of
I've got somewhere I belong
I've got somebody to love
This is what dreams are made of
"Wow! Danielle is something." Sky said to me as we watch them sing. I looked at him and put my hand on his shoulder. "She really is something.”
Danielle's POV:
I couldn't believe we won. I was speechless. Is this some kind of dream? Shine and Xaria and I went to find the guys and once we spotted him I gave Knight a hug. "We Won Knight." I yelled.
"I told you that you have a great voice." he said. Darylle rushed towards me. "I can't believe it. You are so great." He said as I gave him a smiled. “You are so unbelievable Danielle.” Jaden said while Trevor and Kyle agreed. I smiled at them and looked for Sky. Once my eyes spotted him, Sky approaches me. “Congratulation, I can't believe you have a great voice. You are amazing." He smile and I thank him.
After that, we just enjoy that night….
