Hey Guys so..I thought about adopting the story Rachel's Journey to Stardom from tarakiki but instead, I've decided to write a similar story..one where Rachel auditions and gets the role Ariadne in Inception. However, the pairing will be completely different AND there will only be a maximum of 7 similarities between my story and tarakiki's I plan on adopting two other stories from her but..let's see if that pans out..On with the story!

Disclaimer: I do not own Glee or Inception or anything recognizable. I do however, own this plotline and a dog named Benjy


Summary: After the Glee Club, sans a few members, banned her from Glee Club, Rachel Barbra Berry makes the move to the Big Apple landing the role Ariadne in the movie Inception. As filming begins, Rachel slowly falls for her co-star.

Something you should know: This is after Matt left, and before Blaine was introduced to the show. As much as I love Darren, in order to have a story I'll be 100% satisfied with, he can NOT be part of Glee yet..unfortunatley
You should also know that Brittany, for some reason, is longer part of the Glee Club..let's just say her parents moved out of state for a better job..I guess..I can't imagine Brittany genuinely hating Rachel nor can I picture her being a big part of this story.


Rachel walked into school with a smile on her face. That week, so far, was wonderful. She hadn't been slushied. She realized she was truly over Finn Hudson. And, she had just sent in an audition tape for a Christopher Nolan fillm.

Rachel's POV

As I walked into the choir room, I stood in the middle of the room, ready to greet the people I had come to think of as my dysfunctional family.

"Hello my fellow Glee-"

"Shut it Man-Hands" Quinn yelled at me. As I looked around the room I noticed everybody almost the entire club looking at me with smug smiles

"W-what's going on?"

"You're kicked out Rachel." Mr. Shue said

"Kicked ou-"

"ENOUGH RACHEL! Don't question my authority. I'm tired of your attitude. I'm tired of you always demanding the solos. And I'm tired of you believing you're better than everyone else here. You're not a team player and for that, you are no longer part of this club. Now, I'd appreciate it if you'd leave, this is a Glee Club only rehearsal."

"But, My. Shue I-"

"Goodbye Rachel."

"I-Well, I guess I understand your outrageous decision to kick out the president of the Glee Club." With that, I stormed out of the classroom, making sure to slam the door on my way out. Just as I reached the hallway my cell phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hello is this Ms. Rachel Berry?"

Puck's POV

"Listen, Mr. Shue, I loath Berry getting all the solos as much as the next person but, don't you think you were being a bit harsh?" I was surprised that Santana came to Berry's rescue.

"I thought you of all people would be happy with this decision Satan."

"I don't think I was talking to you Tubbers."

"If you or anybody doesn't like the decisions I have made for this club well, there's the door, Santana." At this, not only did I stand up, but so did Sam and Santana.

"Sam? Puck? Where are you guys going?" Quinn questioned.

"Well..Mr. Shue said that if anybody wasn't happy with his decision, we could quit well..what he did to Rachel..just wasn't right." To which Sam nodded his head to. "Now, if you'll excuse us, Sam, Santana and I, plan on catching up to Rachel."

As the three of us exited the room, we heard Rachel say, "Thank you! Thank you so much Mr. Nolan. I promise, you won't regret this." As she hung up, Santana made our presence known.

"Hey, Berry, who was that?"

"That's none of your business Santana. Now if you'll excuse me-"

"Wait, Berry-Rachel. We came out because well, we didn't agree with what went down in there." At Sam's words Rachel got misty eyed.

"Yeah, listen Rachel, I know we're not the closest of friends but, I've come to realixe you're one of the only genuine friends I have and well, I would never just leave my Hot Jewish American Princess hanging like that." At my words, Rachel really did start crying.

"Oh! Thank you, you guys! I'm so sorry for how I reacted to your question Santana. To answer your question, that was Christopher Nolan, director of-"

"The Dark Knight." Sam cut off. "Not to be rude but, what did he call you for?"

"Well..you're looking at the newest supporting actress for his next film."

"No way! Rachel, that's amazing!" Santana congratulated her.

"Thank you Santana. Mr. Nolan just informed me that he needs me in New York by the seventeenth-"

"But Rachel! That's tomorrow! That doesn't give us enough time to send you a proper going away party."

"I know Santana, but.."

"No! No buts! We totally understand. We'll just have a party in your honor..just us three and maybe your dad's unless they're going with you?"

"I actually haven't seen either of my father's since the beginning of last month..They've been on a business trip for a month and a half now.."

"Where are you going to stay in New York?"

"When Shelby left, she felt really guilt. So, she puts money in this bank account for me. I've had no reason to use it, until now..I really should go, I need to pack and head to the airport and such and stuff."

"Good luck Barbra!"Santana shouted

"Don't forget us when you're all big and famous Berry!"

"Thank you for shouting that in my ear Noah."

"Good luck Rachel."Sam said.

"Thanks guys. You have no idea how much your support means to me."

"Wait! Rachel? How about we drive you to the airport?"

"That's a wonderful idea Sam. Thank you."


Rachel's POV

"Well, I guess this is the goodbye, or, goodbye for now..?"I said, or, rather asked Noah, Sam and Santana.

"Call us up when you've finished filming and you're all settled in. Can't wait to visit you in the Big Apple."

"I'd be delighted to have you, once filming has officially been called to an end of course."With that I hugged each of the three people seeing me off. As I reached the gate leading to my destiny, I looked over my shoulder one last time, preparing to say goodbye to the Rachel Berry of Lima, Ohio. And as I drew in a deep breath, I took the first steps leading to my destiny.


"Excuse me, miss, if you'll please buckle your seatbelt, we'll be landing in a few moments."

At the flight attendents words I showed her my million dollar smile and buckled my seatbelt.

After fifteen minutes, the flight landed. As I exited the gate, I noticed a man in a tux holding a sign that said Ms. Rachel Berry. Obviously, I walked up to him

"Hello, sir, I am Rachel Berry. I was wondering if you could tell me why you are holding a sign with my name..?"

"Well, ma'am, Mr. Nolan hired me to drive you to the hotel and to the studio after approximatley an hour of you settling in."

"Thank you Mr..?"

"Smythe. But you may call me Sebastian."
