~V2 Survival Round~

Chapter 8: Blind Auditions

(Normal POV)

A week had gone by since the online auditions started, and that only meant that the blind auditions were to be held.

Team Leader Luka was bringing the list of contestants to Manager Gakupo in his office.

"You told me to give you this," Luka stated as she handed the folder to Gakupo.

"Today is the 1st round test, right?" Gakupo asked.

"yes, It'll start in an hour" Luka said as she looked at her watch.

~Survival Round~

Outside the office, the contestants were arriving. Fifty boys were to compete in events held by professionals to test their skills of singing and dancing.

"Here, drink this," a certain blonde handing an energy drink to a certain tealette as they entered the building.

"It's ok, I don't need it. You'll be there with me," the tealette said as he handed the drink back to the blonde.

"That's right, all you have to do is keep your eyes on me, just like we practiced. Got it?" the blonde said grabbing the tealette's hand.

"Let's go!" they said together as they got on to the stage with the other 48 contestants.

~Survival Round~

"From now on, the 50 contestants will sing the same song, and make a decision by listening to all of you, one by one. 25 will be selected, and 25 will be eliminated. All of you, until I say to stop, you must keep singing. Do you understand?" Sweet Ann announced to the crowd of contestants on stange.

"Yes!" they all answered.

"Then, the song you all will be singing is this," she said as a piano started to play.

Everyone started to listen to hear what song that might be.

The blonde and tealette held hands and sang to their hearts content.

Sooner or later, 25 were eliminated. The blonde and tealette started to jump up and down in circles.

"To the contestants that made it through the first round, please stay on stage. In 5 minutes, dance auditions will start," Sweet Ann announced.

~Survival Round~

"The first round ended" Luka said to Gakupo, who looked at his watch.

"Will you be watching the next round?" Luka asked.

"No, I will go, when the top 8 are selected," Gakupo said.

"Fine, then I'll go check the auditions," Luka said as she walked out the door. "Please be on time."

It would be great, if someone could appear and give a new fresh air to V2.

~Survival Round~

"Ah~ for visual, you, my wife, are the best!" a blonde said to a tealette while waiting for the next round.

"Rin! Shut up!" Mikuo said hitting his friend on the head.

"Ah, ok…"

"Then, from now on, the dance auditions will start. You will have 3 minutes. Music start," a man announced.

A popin' rockin' song came though the speakers, and everyone started to move.

A blonde and tealette had decided to dance together doing a routine that they had prepared beforehand.

Suddenly the music stopped.

"I will now announce the best dancers. There are 8 candidates."

~Survival Round~

Crowds of fans were let into the arena for the final audition test.

The blind audition.

"It seemed like you drew people's attention, Manager Kamui," Len said to Gakupo as he sat down next to him in the front row.

"It seems like that, but it's not bad.. aren't you curious what the performance may be like?" Gakupo commented.

"I am curious to see what kind of talent will perform today."

"You will fight back, eh? Well, that's not bad."

~Survival Round~

The stage manager came into a room with 8 boys waiting and practicing.

"We will be starting soon. Please follow me to the stage."

~Survival Round~

A white sheet feel over the stage to cover the identities of the candidates. A spotlight will be placed behind them to show the crowd just a silhouette of the person on stage.

A man walked onto the stage, mic in hand and announced, "As of now, the candidates are ready. The blind audition will start now."

Fans started to scream.

"first, this is contestant number 1," the man said as he walked off the stage.

A spotlight appeared on a boy doing a dance routine to the song "Party Rock Anthem".

Contestant number two rocked out on his guitar playing an original song he wrote.

Number three sang the song "I Need A Girl"

Number four sang an original song.

Contestant number five did a dance routine to a remix song.

~Survival Round~

"Mikuo!" Rin yell/whispered from backstage.

The tealette turned around to see his best friend.

"Think about how much you want this. This is just one step toward your dream. You can do it!" she told him as he walked on stage.

"Contestant number 6" the announcer said as he walked up.

~Survival Round~

Number 7 played a song made famous by Beethoven, but then started to Rap…?

"Hip-Hop Beethoven… it's listenable," Gakupo commented while listening.

…

Number 8 did a dance to an original song.

~Survival Round~

"We will now be announcing the results of V2 Junior."

The crowd cheered.

"The results are… Second, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh!"

"Let us see! Let us see!" the crowd sang.

The judges gave each other a look as if to ask each other 'should we reveal them?'

"Now, the V2 Junior candidates will be revealed."

"Number 2, Shion Kaitio!" A blue-haired boy stepped out from behind the curtain.

"Number 5, Akita Nero!" A blonde boy came out from behind the curtain.

"Number 6, Hatsune Mikuo!" the tealette came out shyly from behind the curtain.

"Last but not least! Today's most voted contestant! Number 7!"

A blonde came out from behind the curtain covering their face with a hat.

"Kagine Rin!"

The blonde removed the hat and posed.

Manager Gakupo seemed speechless at this contestant.

"That jerk…" Len mumbled under his breath.
