Hey! Sorry for my late writing! Just had a busy week and its been difficult to write until now! Hope you enjoy the chapter! Like before I’ll have the Links to the music as we go along.

Reader POV

The panic flowed through me as we all rushed towards the performance venue. We had a real late start to the day, as I was preparing with a very special someone to help in my performance. I had already spoken with Pierre and Aria about if it was ok for my do to what I had planned, they agreed, thankfully! Whilst the group was performing, we also had to finish costumes, I had my team, Bonnie and Dedenne helping me finish my costume to my vision. 

“Thank Arceus we’re not late!” Tierno huffed as we walked into the venue.

“I’m quite nervous for today.” Clemont whispered in my ear.

“Trust me, I’ll be with you ever step of the way. No matter what happens, and if it flops, who cares.” I chuckled, standing in front of him.

“We need to go you guys!” Serena shouted, ushering us into the dressing rooms.

“Good luck Clemont!” Bonnie chuckled.

“I’ll need it…” Clemont remarked, tailing behind me.

It was the princesses cup first, it went really well, it also gave me and Clemont time to practice our amazing routine. Yes, I decided to have Clemont help me in my routine, he knew the music to lip sync to and everything, it was just trying to boost his confidence and perform at 100%. As Serena won, it pushed me more to win for myself.

“Clemont, please stop stressing, you’re not even on yet.” I told him as I tried to powder his face, but his shaking and sweating made it incredibly difficult to do.

“I’m sorry Y/n, I’m just worried I’ll mess it up for you.” Clemont gripped his trouser leg.

“Y/n, Tierno and Joaquin! You’re on shortly, please get into positions in that order.” The producer shouted.

“Joaquin’s here!?” I was taken back.

“You bet Y/n, and I’m going to win this key once and for all!” He remarked.

“I’ll see you in a bit Clem.” I giggled walking to the stage door.

As we were lined up for the first themed challenge of the showcase, I heard Aria say to the audience:

“Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to the third round of the ever amazing Snatch game! We would now like to welcome to the stage. Siebold the Kalosian Elite four member. The Iconic Nurse Joy and Finally, the Anistar City Gym leader herself, Olympia!” Aria pointed towards the stage. One by one the three of us were lifted on platforms. Tierno dressed as Nurse Joy, Joaquin dressed as Siebold and me, dressed as my idol, of whom I’ve studied for years, Olympia.

“Well, hello Olympia, how are we feeling today.” Aria pointed the microphone towards me.

“Shit!” I replied, in the exact replication of Olympia’s voice, there was a burst of laughter from the crowd even Aria and Pierre chuckled.

“How so?” The host asked me.

“Even the stars couldn’t predict me being booked on this sort of Torchic-shit gig.” The crowd burst into laughter and I knew already that I would be marked high in this challenge.

“Haha! Well…lets get going with round 3 of the Snatch game!” Aria chuckled.

My first question for this round was difficult to make funny, but somehow I managed to pull it out.

“Lets go Ms Magical floaty woman! Finish the sentence with a word you think fits!” Aria slid over to me.  “Malva is sooo hot, when she looked in the mirror she…”

“Well, if this “Malva” woman is so hot, I would’ve predicted it, but since she’s “hot”, your words not mine.” I started, I already saw Aria chuckling. “I put… ‘felt sorry for that mirror’.”

The crowd burst out in laughter, I followed up by saying. “That mirror, poor soul, the last thing it will ever look at.”

My last question was pretty easy to make funny.

“Back to Olympia, your final question is…” I made funny faces behind her, which made people seem to laugh. “Professor Sycamore is so obsessed with Mega Evolution its not even funny! When he discovered a new Megastone, he named it…”

“I said Penisite.” I held up my card, which I drew on a huge dick on it. The crowd was on the floor at this point, it took a while for them to stop laughing. 

“And why- why- why- why’d you say that?” Aria couldn’t stop laughing.

“Because the professor’s tried it on so many times he needed to try a new approach to making ‘things’ bigger.” I shrugged.

After the snatch game round I was in stitches with how funny I was. I next made my way back to the dressing room where I was greeted with a smiling Clemont.

“Oh my Arceus! You were so funny out there!” Clemont laughed. I thanked him and prepared for my runway. I was extremely excited as I knew this runway would evoke feelings. As I got up in all of my dress and drags and all of the good stuff, I saw heads turn by the other contestants. They were in awe of my outfit. Panpour was also in a similar outfit, however he had a pink bow tie and a crown on its head pouf.

“Y/n! Your on last! Get prepared!” The producer said. 

“I’m already ready.” I smirked.

“I really admire your confidence Y/n.” Clemont turned to me and held my gloved hand.

“Thank you, and I admire yours.” I replied.

“I don’t have any though…” Clemont shook his head.

“You do, you have the confidence in yourself to help me with my performance.” I kissed him on the cheek and left for my runway.

As I waited for my cue to advance on the stage, I felt an immense urge to go out there and strut my stuff, but make it more theatrical. My outfit was by far the tallest and the best.

“And now, welcome to the stage; Y/n!” Aria announced. 

When I revealed my full outfit, mouths opened wide, the lights were dimmed apart from one spotlight which followed my every move. People stood up and clapped for me as I walked on the stage, with panpour by my side. Within seconds, people shone their phone lights at me. It was like a sea of light, welcoming me to the world of performing arts. 

As the last person to join the stage I was the last person to be critiqued.

“Moving onto Y/n.” Aria said. “Judges?”

“This is an incredible look Y/n, I’d love for you to explain to us the concept behind this.” The first judge asked.

“With pleasure.” I replied. “This outfit is based on a lesser known sin called Vanity or excessive self-love. Its different to pride though. This outfit is inspired by my flop in the Coumarine City tournament. The floor length pink mermaid gown is something I created, I hand sewn on the beaded elements and sequins. I also decided to style a wig to wear. Its a blue wig which represents the psychic move which was used in that tournament, and if you noticed the details of the crown and the key lodged in the hair, the details represents how the crown, key and the win were ripped away from me at that moment.” 

“I have no words but well done. This outfit is absolutely incredible and I’d love to hang it up in a gallery somewhere.” He stood up and clapped.

“Your snatch game performance was phenomenal. As you know Olympia is a recognised icon around this city, you did her proud.” Pierre remarked.

“I tell you this every time Y/n, you hyper feminise things too much. If you feel that way join the princess cup, not the princes cup.” The rude judge remarked. I smiled and kept going.

“Now, to announce the winner of this challenge.” Pierre stood up and announced. “The win of the snatch game goes to Y/n!”

“Thank you all so much!” I smiled. “I hope Olympia is watching me with joy right now.”

“I’m sure she is.” Pierre smirked.

After we had gone down for the Musical themed, freestyle performance. I had noticed Tierno had been safe to move on with me as well. I asked him what song he’d be doing and what came out of his mouth shocked me.

“Land of Lola- From Kinky Boots. What about you.” Tierno chuckled. 

“Are you actually serious! Thats one of my favourite musicals EVER!” I shouted. “Oh, and I’m doing Rewrite the Stars- From The Greatest Showman.”

“Thats cool, want help packing?” Tierno read me.

“Likewise.” I chuckled.

“Seriously though, I’m taking one from your books this time around.” Tierno then split from me to get dressed.

“Clemont, get into your costume quickly.” I ordered him, I was confused at what Tierno had said, and honestly, it sent alarm bells ringing in my head.

As I finished the touches on Clemonts makeup and My own, he asked me.

“You’re going to win this for sure.” Clemont stood up. His costume was amazing. A period suit from around the time of the first circus. And mine, a classical aerial leotard, with chiffon tassels connecting at the hip.

There was a sudden uproar from the other contestants as they watched Tierno on the screen. He was lip syncing the song, and doing all of the High kicks and splits that I do. I was angry but also very happy that my legacy was rubbing off on people. Next, me and Clemont were called to stage door. When we had to split for our entrances to look seamless, I said to him.

“You’ll do great Clemont, and even if we do mess it up. I’ll still love you.” I chuckled. “Now lets go out with a bang!”

Clemont didn’t have the chance to reply as I was ushered to my position.  Above the stage, by the lights. I had mega Altaria already prepared. Florges was with Clemont, helping him out. That was when the music Kicked in.

Watching Clemont from down below, get every word correct and performing his best created a sense of absolute wonder. Florges created such beautiful explosions of petals and mystical aura, the crowed remained silent for this was a performance that couldn’t be missed. I was so proud of him for doing this, facing his fears.

When the female part was about to be introduced I hopped on Altaria and we flew down slowly, as I lip synced the words to a T.  When I got off of Altaria on the ground. I walked towards the static Clemont. When the music loudened I started to do my best at rhythmical dancing, leaping around the stage with Altaria creating beautiful dragon rush trails, exploding into sparkles, which lit up the stage effortlessly.

I leaped around the stage, hitting aerial splits and everything. When it came down for the two of us to dance together. We advanced towards each other and I took Clemonts hands and we began to dance together, he spun me around with ease. He even lifted me up and spun me around, my pokemon executed this performance amazingly. 

When the true spectacle was about to start. (2:36 “All I want is to fly/fall with you.) Florges split us apart with its vines. After that, the long note on “Possible”  I shouted.

“NOW!” I shouted. Clemont and I ran towards each other and grabbed onto each others hands. Within seconds, Altaria had used dragon rush to create a spiral of purple and Florges had used a huge Fairy Wind to suspend me and Clemont off of the ground. 

Clemont and I danced around, both singing along to the song, we had done many flips and had went upside down together. However when the song started to fade into its ending, Florges had lightened the fairy wind and Clemont and I, who were hugging each other had returned to the ground on our feet. I split from the hug and  faced the audience. As the song ended, a tear fell from my eye. 

The crowd was silent. But suddenly, there was a huge wave of cheering and wooing and Clapping. We had gotten a full standing ovation from the audience. Clemont held my hand and pulled me for a hug, but instead of that, I kissed his lips, only a peck though, we weren’t that close yet. 

Once the crowd subsided, it was now time for the voting of all of the freestyle performances. Clemont had left to change.

“Now very pretty audience! Cast you’re votes!” Aria shouted.

There seemed to be a lot of mine and Tierno’s glowcaster colours. After all of the votes had been collected. The winner was announced.

“The winner of the Anistar City Princes Cup is….. A TIE!?” Pierre and Aria both were shocked.

“This can’t do! Tierno and Y/n will need to settle this battle.” Pierre announced. “You two will settle this in an all out performance battle, no pokemon, just yourselves.

We had to do a quick change into something more fitting for the battle,  after doing so we entered back onto the stage we stood on opposite sides of the stage.

“Hello my princes, tonight you were asked to prepare a performance to Supernova by Kylie Minogue. Good luck and Don’t fuck it up!” Pierre sat down and the music kicked in.

As the music kicked in, I kicked my shit into high gear, giving high energy. Whereas I saw that Tierno was getting tired quickly.

I marched around the stage, making sure everyone could see me perform my best. I wanted to do Olympia proud and win this for her, for me, for my mother, for my city!

I gave comedic elements whilst also giving life. I strutted around the stage and gave a robotic shuffle. 

When the bridge happened I strutted to the back of the stage and walked forward. After that, the pinnacle beat drop happened. I spiced it up and did a back handspring into a 360 jump split. I spun quickly round and jumped onto me feet again and started to shuffle across the stage once more. Me and Tierno pointed to each other when lip syncing the song and as the song ended I finished with a magical dip.

The crowd went wild for us. Even the panel of Judges rejoiced. When the second voting happened, it was only on Pierre’s judgement. He then said.

“That was an amazing performance you two. But it now comes down to my vote and my vote alone.” Pierre remarked. “Congratulations Y/n! You’re a winner baby!”

I jumped in joy at my second win! As I was handed my second key by klefki I took a bow.  After that we had left to get changed.

After that It was next then to say goodbye to everyone. Joaquin and Nini had left after they were eliminated. After we had said goodbye to them we were suddenly approached by a familiar face. I smiled at the woman.

“Hello Y/n, its been a while hasn’t it.”
