Behind the Beauty (Lust, hate, and murder)

The Story

For years, beauty has been prized by many. It has caused so much love, and hate, but most of all...death. Life isn't a contest, but beauty is. The talent is points, the smile is points, the twirl is points, but the murder? OK, well it's score one for the murderer, one less person to beat.

For the men? It's a competition for their girls, and, as coaches, it's their job to make sure they win... no matter what. Sometimes they might mess up and the judges deduct points. Sometimes, they do perfect, and gain points. Whatever the matter, there is a technique, and a secret. You could win three times in a row, but you have a secret, a secret that helped you win, a secret that helped you beat the others, even if it meant beating them physically. There's a secret to every good pageant girl.

Behind the Scenes

Lies. Murder. Deception. Fear. Cheating. Lust. Hate. Win. Love.

There's a lie behind each face, a murderer behind each mask, deception behind each heart, fear in each eye, cheating behind each win, lust in each heart, hate in each mind, a win in each competition, love behind each wall.

Each girl has a coach, and not many of them share the same feelings about cheating, but they both do it. They don't always get along, but most of them share a love deeper than anything any person has seen. Some of them hate each other, others are related and share a blood bond.

They all act sweet on stage, in public, but in the dressing rooms, they're evil, threatening each other murder. Weapons aren't allowed... doesn't mean they don't have one. Most of the girl carry a knife with them, while others carry guns. Not the best thing to do. If the judges or anyone else see the weapon, you can be banned from the pageant for life.

Coaches. They hate each other, but not always the other girls. Love runs between some coaches, and other girls, sometimes many other girls, or many other coaches.

This is a competition that has turned into a deadly game, where they all fight for their lives. When a girl drops out, they can't let her walk away so easily. They can't her tell the secrets of the beauty. Murder is the only way. New girls have to be trained, "fresh meat." When a girl losses, the same technique is used. Death.

Nervousness sets in with the girls as, one by one, they're eliminated, and murdered. None of the judges have a clue of what's going on, and neither does the crowd. So the girls can't let any of them find out or they'll be eliminated. Lives are on the line, hearts will be broken, and blood will be shed.

You

You're either a judge, or a competing girl. If you're a coach, you do anything and everything to make your girls when. Love will happen, tears will be cried, and promises will be broken. Do whatever you have to to win, lie to the other girls to make them lose. Anything.

Girls, you're innocent, sweet, and you have a smile that shines. Well, that's in front of the judges. Behind the scenes, you're vicious, no one is innocent here. Plotting is your best talent, murder is your passion, and secrets are your crutch.

She's full, and her looks could win her any guy she wanted.

Spot filled: Pageant contestant

Name: Hayden Ivy Dion

Age: 17

Gender: female

Appearance: Pale brown skin and gold-brown eyes. Slim and tall, with a fierce face. Most striking is her hair, which she's all but shaved off. It's very dark brown, the ends bleached. She refuses extensions, as her hair's a decent length when combed out. However, she's always got it sticking straight up, with the sides cut close to the scalp. She's got an edgy, almost couture look.

Spoiler

Personality: Edgy, sharp tongued, and cold. She's the tough rebel chick of the pageants, and is always whispered about. The girl from the gritty, rough-and-tumble streets of Manhattan, pulled from a life of crime and darkness by a talent scout in search of a beauty. She doesn't back stab or trash talk, god forbid sabotage or pick fights, but she'll but up a fierce fight if she's threatened. Refuses to put on a pretty face for the judges- if they wanted a pretty smile and bottle blonde haired girls, they should've looked in Cali, not her Manhattan.

Born and raised there. Her family's not poor, by a long shot, but she couldn't stand to be left alone with her washed out model mom and stuffy older sister. So she'd grab her elder brother, and they'd hit the streets. She was a natural at it- protecting, smooth talking, navigating, bartering. While she was thriving in the music and lights, the urban downtown that she loved to pieces, her brother was getting into darker stuff.

When Hayden was fourteen, he nearly OD'd on an over the counter drug he'd gotten from the dealers. Hayden freaked. Her mother, oblivious to all but her past, didn't act, and her sister would freak worse, so Hayden got her brother into rehab, quick. He's been clean since, and she works to keep it that way. She's still the gritty city girl, and the only person she knows she loves is that brother. It's she and him and Manhattan, and by her mark, that's all there ever needs to be.

Hayden

Do you know what's better than having a swarm of people around you, with your prop suspenders hanging on your hips, your tank top rippling with every spine roll you do, and the skinny jeans you're wearing clinging to your legs as they shift and lock?

Neither do I.

My hair's swinging joyfully in its 'hawk, my dance shoes sliding gracefully over the cardboard I've duct taped to the concrete. Mitchell's hanging in the inner ring, clapping to the beat and cheering as I flip back onto my hands, then to my feet, then to my hands, and back again. My torso pops, locks, pops, locks, and I roll back until the ends of my hair are brushing the concrete, staring into the skyscraper-tops. Bright blue sky, lights and blaring sounds, my little corner crowded up. I can't help but laugh out loud, and it's lost in the roar of Manhattan.

That's when my coach pushes forward and smiles. I stop dead, my spine still arched, my arms halfway up. I'm so still the crowd starts clapping -at my control, obviously- and then the music cuts off. Nice timing. I smile and thank everyone, flipping my fedora full of cash onto my hat, the hawk smushing flat and jutting out below the rim. The second even Mitchell's shot my coach a scowl and walked into the store behind, my smile drops, with my arms following, and I glare through a fringe of bleached hair.

"We have a show, Hayd. We're hitting your apartment, and then we're out."

I don't bother to rip up the cardboard. Just heft my boombox to my hip and follow my coach resentfully.

Naz:

The black cloth felt soft against my skin. Chaz told me to put it on as I practiced piano. My hands hovered over the keys and I ran my hands over them. I listened carefully to every sound in the room. When I started playing I pushed away all other sounds and focused on just the piano. That's how I'm so good, though I don't know why I work like that.

My hands flit over the keys as I play the Mario theme song, which is supposed to be one of the hardest pieces to play on piano. For me, it's as easy as playing Mary Had A Little Lamb, the first piece I ever played on the piani (age three). I hear a crash and almost flinch, but I catch myself so I don't mess up the piece. Chaz has this weird thing where he makes a whole bunch of distracting sounds while I play.

When I finished I pulled off the blindfold and saw glass shattered all over the floor. I bet I'm gonna end up being the one cleaning it up.

Can I join please??????

As a coach, PLEASE. We have two coaches (guys) and five girls.
