A/N:Hey so this is my first story so let me know what you guys think. I don't have a beta so please feel free to point out any spelling or grammar issues as I did the best I could. Now on to notes about the story. This is picking up after the glee club disbanding although in this story Finn is still alive. I won't be using any of the season 6 newbies as even though most of the characters won't be having a big role in this story I don't feel like I can write the new ones well enough although I did use some of the story lines for the characters that happened in season 5 and 6. Also sorry for the first chapter being so wordy. I only meant for this to be a couple of paragraphs and to introduce the new characters but it became too long.
Also future author notes hopefully won't be as long
Disclaimer Note: I do not own Glee or any of its characters as those belong to RIB and Fox
Finn Hudson had worked for five years for this. He had gone back to college, got his teaching degree and started teaching history at McKinley High all for the hope that one day he could convince the principal, and the board, and the superintendent that the Glee Club which had been unceremoniously ripped away from the school should be reinstated.
Of course he wasn't alone in this pursuit but he was the only one that stayed at home base to try and make it work. It wasn't the younger kids fault as Sue had essentially forced them out, making them transfer to different schools. Marley and her mom had "transferred" to a school in LA and last he had heard from her she was doing great. She was in London right now as part of some study abroad program so communication had been less frequent. Most of their communication went through Jake or Ryder, mostly Jake, who stayed in touch with her although Finn made sure to always watch all the videos she posted and congratulate her whenever she had performances. Jake had been sent to a school in Chicago which had inadvertently worked out great as his mom had managed to land a job that more than any job she had here in Lima. Now Jake was in Julliard dancing on a full scholarship and also tried to come back to Lima periodically to catch up with Finn.
Ryder on the other hand had decided to quit singing at least publicly like he had been doing. After what happened with Glee Club he had decided to focus his attention on football and from what Finn heard was doing quite well in college. Unique also was sent to New York, and was now on Broadway. Kitty was the tough one as without the other kids' influence she had reverted back to her queen bee personality but after she reconnected with Jake he had called an intervention with him, Marley, Sam, Ryder, Blaine, Artie and Quinn which seemed to work. She and Jake seemed to hang out now although neither would say if they were dating.
Sam, to his credit, had also moved back to Lima after a brief stay in New York and had also decided to get a job working at McKinley under Coach Beiste as an assistant coach. The rest of the New York crew had also graduated from their respective colleges and were all still living in New York although he tries to keep in regular contact with them especially his step-brother, Kurt who was currently living in marital bliss with his husband Blaine. After 4 years of postponing, breakups and fighting, the two of them had finally decided to get married last spring. It wasn't the biggest ceremony which had surprised him but it was still great. They had him, his parents, Cooper, the other glee kids and the leftovers of Blaine's warbler group all in attendance.
He would have to say Puck had changed the most. After a near run-in with the law and Shelby threatening to withhold Beth from him he had decided that his life needed a reboot. So following in Finns almost footsteps he had decided to join the army and it has worked out great for him, he even managed to get Quinn to get back together with him and they were apparently happy. Mercedes had gotten a number 1 album and went on tour with Brittany and Mike as her backup dancers.
had his son, Daniel and he and Emma had moved to Connecticut where they had found jobs at a high school, where Emma was working as the school psychologist and had gotten a job teaching history and running the glee club. He sends Finn videos of their performances from time to time and offers for him to come and help him but Finn declines every time, feeling that he has to finish the job in Lima at all costs.
The big break that he was waiting for finally happened. Sue Sylvester, after years of reigning over McKinley High with an iron fist had been swayed by a political committee to run for office in Ohio with an eye to a future White House bid. Her replacement, Principal Allen, while not as cold hearted had still taken some time to convince but Finn had finally won him over. He was given a year trial run and if the glee club didn't win it all at the end of the year they would not be allowed to continue. Smiling, Finn had gladly taken that opportunity.
Now all he had to do was find members to join the club. He hurries before class to post the signup sheet taking a moment to smile in amazement at the fact that he had finally done it before heading to teach his first class, hopeful that when he returned at the end of the day the signup sheet would be full.
a/N:So let me know what you guys think. Also on another quick note I have most of the relationships for the originals down but not for the season 4 newbies. So let me know what relationships you guys would want to see.
