Amanda's dad was not happy when he heard that she had placed second. He threatened to put the dancers to a deep sleep, but Amanda saved them by asking if they could be in her showcase on Friday. How are you going to get them out of their trance, wondered Cat? You'll see, said Amanda. She led them into the room where the dancers were still wandering around. Suddenly, they heard music coming from the music room. Amanda rushed over to the door to see what was going on. She was shocked to find out who was there. Amanda:Hi, Lady Antebellum! How did you get here? Charles:Ryan let us in here. We told him that we were helping Cat and her dance crew. Hillary:Are they here? Amanda:Yeah, they're in the room with the dancers. Dave:Show them to us, please. Maybe we can break them out of the spell. As the members of Lady Antebellum followed Amanda to the large room where the dancers were wandering about, Charles looked at Hillary. Charles:Wanna help me put them to sleep so that they can never dance again? Hillary:I would be happy to. Hahahahahaha.

Cat asked Amanda what she was going to do. Amanda asked Lady Antebellum to sing a couple of songs, as they began singing, Amanda turned the lights down low, and filled the room with a strange smoke. A few minutes later the lights came on again the smoke dispersed, and the dancers were back to normal. Amanda asked them if they would dance for her while she sang in the show. They said they would be delighted to do it. Cat and Nigel said they would help in any way they could. Then Amanda's father came into he room, he told everybody that no matter what, Amanda must be the star of the show. ''Don't worry'' said Cat, ''Lady Antebellum will give her all the help she needs''........................................................................

The next morning, Amanda began working with Lady Antebellum to help write an original song for the showcase. Amanda asked them if they would mind helping her perform the song. Dave:That sounds great, man. Could I play the guitar? Amanda:Sure, you can. Charles:Could we sing one of our songs, too? Amanda:As long as I get to be a part of it, I don't see why we shouldn't. Hillary:Would you mind trading places with me on "American Honey"? Charles:No, Hillary. She shouldn't d that one. She needs to sing something that shows off her vocal range. That's why it's called a showcase. Hillary:Duh, Charles. Dave:What about "I Run To You"? You could sing Hillary's part with Charles, and I'll get to play the guitar. Amanda:That sounds great. Let me go tell my father. While Amanda was working with the dancers, the members of Lady Antebellum were talking with Amanda's father.

Amanda's father asked Lady Antebellum to make Amanda the most famous star on the planet. They said they would do their best.
Meanwhile Cat was trying to put a showcase together for Amanda. Nigel was worried if he ever would get his dancers back.
Then Lady Antebellum and Amanda came into the room. ''We are going to rehearse now'' said Amanda ''Great'' said Cat, ''We all can't wait to hear you'' They sang their song and when they had finished, there was absolute silence, not a sound at all, and then Cat said.................................................................................

''Wow, I think you really nailed it, that will go down a storm on the show, well done everybody''.
Nigel said it would be going out live on tv, and a big audience was predicted. Cat and Amanda were discussing what outfits they were going to wear. Lady Antebellum asked Amanda to sing on their next single. She was absolutely thrilled.
Then they all had dinner together, Amanda's father joined them, he was pleased that everything was going well.
Nigel asked him if the dancers would be allowed to perform, as he thought it would make Amanda's performance better. Amanda's father said, ''Of course they can ''
Nigel whispered to Cat, ''Once we get the dancers away from him, we can get them back home''. Cat agreed, but said it could be dangerous, Amanda's father is a very determined man.................................................................

It was the day of the show, Amanda was feeling a little nervous. Cat told her that everything would be ok, and the show would be a success.
Everybody was ready for the show, Lady Antebellum were confident it would go ok. Nigel was planning to sneak the dancers away as soon as the show had finished. Amanda was in her dressing room getting ready, her father came in, and wished her luck. Cat then came in and told her it was time to go onstage.
Then the show started......................................................

Cat came onto the stage with Nigel, she was wearing a blue sparkly dress, which shimmered under all the bright lights. They introduced Lady Antebellum, who came on stage and sang a new song of theirs.
Then it was Amanda's turn to perform, Cat gave her a big build up, and she came out to thunderous applause.
She sang and danced , then she sat at the piano and did a ballad, that Taylor Swift had written for her. She finished off her showcase with a medley of country songs, whilst dancing with Nigel's dancers.
When she had finished the crowd cheered, she took a bow, then headed for the dressing room.
''Right'' said Nigel, ''I'm going to try and sneak the dancers out of here, Cat, your job is to cover for me''
''Ok'' said Cat, I'll go backstage and keep everyone busy''

Cat went backstage, where an after show party was starting. Everybody thought the show had gone really well, the press had said they would give it rave reviews. Amanda's father looked really pleased, he called Cat over to him. ''I think my daughter is going to be a big star now'' he said. Cat agreed, and asked him what Amanda's plans were for the near future. ''I think she ought to go back to America with you and the others, she'll learn such a lot'' he said. Cat said she would try and sort something out.
Meanwhile Nigel had managed to sneak the dancers out, he put them in a boat, ''Travel down river till you get to a small airstrip, there will be a plane waiting for you'' Nigel said. The boat set off. Nigel then hurried to get back to the after show party.

Soon the after show party was winding down, Nigel suggested that everybody should get an early night, ready for the journey home the next day. Amanda's father had found out the dancers had gone, he was not pleased about this, but he said nothing. The next morning everyone got ready to leave. Amanda was very excited about going to America. Her father came to say goodbye to her, she said to him, ''Don't worry about me, I'll be okay, before long I will be the biggest star in America'' Her father said, ''I know you will, you have the same determination as me'' Amanda said, ''One of the first things I will do when I have settled in America, is to get rid of Cat and her friends'' Amanda's father gave her a hug , and then she set off back to America with the others.

When they arrived back in America, Nigel suggested to Cat, that Amanda should stay with her. Cat agreed and she took Amanda back to her home. ''I'll teach you as much as I can'' said Cat, ''and if you like, tomorrow we could visit the tv studios, and I'll show you around.'' ''That would be great'' said Amanda, ''Do you think we will meet any stars ?'' '' You could be lucky, there always seems to be someone famous hanging around there '' Cat replied. Meanwhile Nigel was phoning some contacts to see if he could get Amanda on any tv shows. The next morning Cat and Amanda headed to the tv studios................................

When they arrived at the studios, Cat and Amanda were met by Nigel. ''Good news'' said Nigel, '' I've managed to get Amanda to perform on a couple of tv shows''. Amanda took a deep breath, ''When have I got to do them'' she said. ''Next week'' said Nigel, ''You've got plenty of time to rehearse''. Cat then continued to show Amanda around the studios, as they were walking around, they met Taylor Swift and Kelly Clarkson, who both offered to help Amanda prepare for her shows. Amanda was very excited, ''Right, said Cat, ''I think we ought to go and sort out some clothes for you to wear''. ''Yipee shopping'' shouted Amanda, ''My favourite hobby''

Cat and Amanda spent the rest of the day shopping, they bought tons of clothes. When they got back to Cats place they were both worn out. They had something to eat, and then Cat fell asleep on the couch. While she was asleep Amanda was having a good look around. She found Cats answering machine, on it was a message for Cat asking her if she could do a magazine ad for a beauty product. Amanda took all the details down, then she erased the message. Not long later Cat woke up, ''Hey Amanda '' she cried, ''Theres a good movie on soon, shall we watch it'' ? ''Yea, sure thing'' replied Amanda. Then they both settled down to watch the movie............................................................

The next morning, Amanda went to the TV studios only to be met by the members of Lady Antebellum. Are you going to help me get ready, Amanda asked them. Sure we will, said Hillary. What did you have in mind, Amanda asked. We were thinking about dancing with you, Dave replied. That would be great, shouted Amanda. While they were working on their performance, Taylor Swift showed up...

''Hey you guys'' shouted Taylor, ''Can I join in the fun ?''
''Sure'' said Amanda, ''Will you perform with me on the tv show ?''
''Course I will'' said Taylor, ''Perhaps we could sing a duet together'' . They all started to practice together, Nigel popped into the studio. ''That sounds great to me'' he said, ''Keep up the good work''. After they had finished rehearsing, they all went out to lunch together. ''I can't wait to appear on tv'' said Amanda, ''Its so exciting'' ''I think Cat is going to host the show'' said Taylor..............................................................................
