Hilbert and Hilda enters the room and sits down with their bands. 

The Pokeband is secretly sweating and being nervous, the first time they were interviewed was bad enough, the second doesn't feel much better. The interviewer is a man with blonde hair. 

Interviewer: Greetings Pokeband and Destiny, it is nice to see that you all made it.

Ash: it's all good, we sort of feel like we have to accept since we now are famous.

Serena: we too.

Interviewer: now then, as we have seen this entire month, it all started with you releasing the first version of They Don't Care About Us, a angry voice with a beat no one can match. how did the inspiration for the song come to life?

The guys all feel their nervous feelings tingle.

Hilbert: well, it came because of the school we attend, we got some bad relations with five other guys who beat us up for simply existing. 

Interviewer: oh, a sad childhood eh?

Red: not entirely, we have had some good things come here and there, but things are far from perfect.

Interviewer: mhm, so Ash. What was the reason you didn't tell your real names before after you performed live? 

Ash: more or less because we were afraid that no one would like what we made if they knew who we are. The whole school hated us because of our rivals if i can call them that. 

Interviewer: did there happen any kind of bulying as far as you know Destiny? 

The sudden question catches Destiny off guard. 

Serena: well uhm, w.we saw some. and we intervened. it's a shame we couldn't know it earlier. 

Lyra: i swear, if we knew about it, we would have told people to stop.

Ethan: i don't think that would have helped, some people are just too rooted in hating others. In the long term it would only make them stop for a week. 

Interviewer: now then, after the song was released, your popularity sky rocked. why do you think you became so popular over the night?

Nate: hard to say really, cause we were of the opinion of people won't listen. and if they do they won't like it. I guess the lyrics and the sound got people to think. 

Hilbert: i have seen a lot of comments asking how i did the beat, but as i mentioned the first time, no secrets will be revealed. As for why i chose it, i showed it to the rest of the boys and they liked it. 

Ethan: i think the song wouldn't sound that good if you didn't use the beat, i had a check on the demo and it sounds a whole lot worse. 

Interviewer: back on track boys. Destiny, do you see any kind of rivalry in popularity in these boys?

Hilda: i see them as rivals, what is a good history without some people to give us competition?

Typicall Hilda to be competetive, Ash roles his eyes. Red remains silent, Ethan scratches his head and Nate just looks away. Hilbert is the only one that doesn't seem to mind it. The interviewer barely misses Hilbert sending a smirky smile to Hilda. 

Rosa: i see them personally as great people i would love to know better. and i'm interested in.....uhm...cooperation if you know what i mean.

Interviewer: Rosa, two weeks ago you performed your newest song, Lucky live. How did you come up with the lyrics?

Rosa: i just made the lyrics out of a party magasine, i read about two lovers who met at a party and fell in love, and they exclaimed that they were so lucky. And so i decided to base the song around them being so lucky.

Interviewer: Leaf, so far you've been quiet. what is your thoughts on the talent contest you all are competing in?

Leaf: huh? sorry i dazed a little, personally i think it is refreshing to be able to sing live again, and see if i can do anything to improve. no one is perfect. 

Interviewer: well that is all we have time for today. a special thanks to The Pokeband and Destiny that came over to us. 

The teens nod, rises up and walks out. The boys breathe out in relief that it is over. The boys all feel their insides being heated up immensely. 

Ash: what is it with that it's so tense in there?

Serena: you feel uncomfortable in there?

Ash: yea, too many people there who watches, and that i never know what he is going to ask. 

Leaf: you'll get used to it eventually, it's part of being famous. 

Red: would you care to explain that once? 

Leaf. uuh?

On Leaf's cheeks a tint of red grows. Rosa begins giggling at her, this is funny to see her blush. Red for his own part gets confused at the red colour her cheek has caught. 

Rosa: Nate, you did well there.

Nate: thanks Rosa, you weren't bad either. 

Ethan: well girls, it was fun to do this, but we have to practice until Monday. see ya then.

The boys walk away while the girls stare at each boy. 

Serena: well that was kind of awkward.

Rosa: especially for Leaf. i saw that blush!

Leaf: eeh? 

Hilda: it continues to grow, i think someone is in love. 

The four other girls continue to tease Leaf who's blush rises for every second. 

The boys however practised all night to get things right.
