Illust: *grins*

Luke: *is conversing with the young Miley Cyrus, whom Illust just spoke with earlier*

Miley: I'm still trying to get ovr the fact tht I'm actually chosen to sing this remake

Luke: I can understand. You've gotten more popular when you started to release albums as yourself. And I admire that

Miley: I try my best. Although I'm quite amused tht there is this fad on YouTube of pairing me with Nick just bcoz we sang Before the Storm. Did u knw they called our pairing "Niley"?

Luke: That's just weird. Btw, I wanna say that I feel honored when you mentioned me and Michael during Party in the USA live

Miley: Oh it was nothing. Just my way of remembering u n the King

Luke: Which of my songs is your favorite?

Miley: I like Ebony and Ivory. Its reli sweet

Luke: *got his headphones on and adjusted his glasses*

Illust: *got her headphones bt they were too big n kept slipping off*

Luke: *adjusted them for her and got them back on*

Illust: Thanks

Luke: You're welcome ^_^

*everyone waited for the cue frm Quincy*

Quincy: *has the music start and conducts everyone throughout the chorus*

*everyone sang according to Quincy's conducting*

Luke: *sang his heart out*

Illust: *tried her best to sing as good as everyone*

*After half an hour, everyone completes the choruses*

Illust: *claps her hand to everyone doing a good job*

Luke: Whew. *takes his phones off, applauding with everyone

*everyone cheered n whooped, while being filmed by camera men who will be in charge to put the MV together*

Luke: The solos are next

Illust: I'm dueting with Celine, right?

Luke: That's right. I'm opening up the song

Illust: *with her headphones still on, took her plc beside Celine*

Celine: You ready?

Illust: *nods, then sees Josh Groban frm afar n blushed at his handsome looks*

Luke: *put his phones back on and got ready, sitting by Nicole from the Pussycat Dolls and Jennifer Hudson*

*the camera crew got ready to film them*

Luke: *the music starts and he starts his part* There comes a time...when we heed a certain call...*Jennifer and Nicole join in* When the world must come together as one...

Jennifer Hudson: There are people dying...

*The song continues till it reaches Celine and Illust*

Illust: *duets with Celine* Woah, woah, woah, let's realize...that the chance can only come...
