How You Like That Rehearsals

* Princess has the purple top on like Choi Yu Jin, Shen Xiao Ting, Seo Young Eun and Cai Bing, for being a member of the TOP 10*

"Four TOP 10 members?" Someone in HYLT Team 2.

"Five." Cai bing turned and told the girl softly as she put her top on, Princess putting the sticker on Young Eun's top.

"It's like half of TOP 10 are on that team." The girl told Da Yeon, Princess overheard them.

~~

Princess was laughing with Choi Yu Jin about random things as they played 'Patty Cake' as they were bored and waiting for everyone to be ready to start dividing out the parts.

"Tiny hands." Xiao Ting said as Princess moved back to her place next to Xiao Ting and she had her hand next to Xiao Ting's. And it showed that even though Princess was the tallest in the group, and overall in the show as she was 180cm, with May she had quite small hands for her height. 

"My hands aren't tiny, they're just unproportional to me." Princess pouted while she told her friend as she giggled at her.

"Sure they are, Ting Hands, sure." Xiao Ting told her as they both faced the rest of the group knowing everyone was ready to get the parts divvied out.

~~

"Only one member gets the killing part." That staff told them as they were all ready now.

"Killing Part?" Seo Young Eun asked all of the girls as they all wanted to know what part it was.

"Only one person for it." Yu Jin told all of the girls.

"Oh, killing part." Cai Bing told the girl knowing what she properly meant.

"I want the killing part but if I don't get it I won't be that sad. I just want a certain part which I really like." Princess told the camera in her solo interview.

As they watched the video they heard some comments from some of the girls.

"Should I cut my hair short?" From Seo Young Eun.

"Please no, I like your long hair." Princess told her cell mate as she flicked the younger girl's hair.

"Should I dye my hair like that?" Which came from Lee Yeon Gyung. Princess just wanted to roll her eyes the girl seemed to be a bit annoying from what she had known of the girl.

Once they had finished watching the performance video, which had ten members, they were lucky they had all ten members.

"They're taking turns and performing?" Seo Young Eun brought up as some of them turned to the other 'How You Like That' Team and they saw what they were doing.

"No!" Lee Yeon Gyung said dramatically which wasn't needed we could see what they were doing and do it after and intimidate them even more.

"Shouldn't we do the same, to get more screen time?" Seo Young Eun told all of them as they looked at the line distribution. And joking at the second part, Princess laughing along.

"We must do it to be on TV." Yu Jin joked making Lena laugh at the girls dramatics.

"Yes me must." Shen Xiao Ting told all of them joining in on the joke.

"Of course to be on TV." Princess continued with the joking, continuing to make their members laugh.

Princess wanted to be Vocal six, even if it wasn't the killing part, but she would still go for the killing part, mostly to show her potential to any members watching them or listening around the room. She liked the line distribution she would get and it had her favourite lines in the part. As it showed off deeper vocals from her yet higher vocals at the start of her lines.

"Who will go first?" Seo Young Eun asked everyone.

"I will go." Yeon Gyung told all of the members before adding. "No, not me first. I'll do it later."

"I'll go first then." Yu Jin told all of the girls.

"All right then." Yeon Gyung told them all, but Princess was confused as to why she said it.

They watched Yu Jin she was cute, but it didn't seem to be as dark and confident to how 'How You Like That' seemed to be.

"I'll go next." Princess told them all, knowing she didn't mind going after her cell mate Yu Jin.

Princess stood up and as all of the members sang she performed the second chorus singing just as loud as the group, while she performed. She was very dark and mysterious in the mini performance, making the members shocked she could do that.

Then it was Seo Young Eun and she performed. It was very markingly, of the dance. Princess knew she could do the dance full out and she wished that the girl would go full out so she was more likely to get that position in the team.

Then Cai Bing was up and she did her own thing for it, which was Princess' favourite so far.

Then it was Shen Xiao Ting and Princess loved her performance. She did the dance and she kept her attention on her.

"Yeon Gyung...." Yu Jin brought up the last girl for the audition.

"This is so nerve wracking. This is like an audition." Yeon Gyung told all of the members as she stood up and Princess kept her eyes on her. Which honestly intimidated the girl as she felt the taller girl's gaze on her and she knew it would be like the masters judging her again.

Once Yeon Gyung's performance was over Yu Jin suggested. "Should we take turns to pick?"

"Ok." Young Eun told all of them as she nodded along.

"I pick Xiao Ting." Yu Jin started off.

"Thank you." Xiao Ting told them as she lightly bowed at the girl.

"Shen Xiao Ting." Inaba Vivienne told all of the girls.

"Thank you." Xiao Ting told them as she lightly bowed at the girl.

"I vote Shen Xiao Ting." Princess told all of the members as she nodded her head towards the tall girl.

"Thank you." Xiao Ting told them as she lightly bowed at the girl.

"Shen Xiao Ting." May voted for the girl.

"Thank you." Xiao Ting told them as she lightly bowed at the girl.

~~

"Have you thought about what position you'd like to take?" Yu Jin asked all of the girls as she knew they had the get the parts sorted out.

"I thought I could rap." Yeon Gyung told all of the girls. "I'm confident about rapping."

"Who wants to rap?" Princess asked all of the girls as they would need to audition off the parts.

Xia Yan, Young Eun, Yeon Gyung, Xiao Ting and Cai Bing wanted to be the rappers.

Xia Yan was the first to audition and she did really well with the rap, even if she didn't have the first part of the rap, she would do well on the second part. She even finished the whole rap.

"That was so cool." Princess told the girl, clapping for her lightly. She wanted her to have the part, she liked hearing her rap.

Cai Bing was next, she went on the same verse as Xia Yan. And she did really well.

Then it was Yeon Gyung, she didn't do as well as the other girls in the rap, she didn't pronounce some of the English words fully.

"Who wants to vote for Xia Yan?" Yu Jin asked all of the girls in the group.

Xiao Ting, Yu Jin and Princess all voted for Xia Yan.

"How about for Cai Bing?" Yu Jin asked for the second candidate.

Inaba Vivienne, May and Kawaguchi Yurina all voted for Cai Bing.

And there was one vote for Yeon Gyung.

"Shall we decide? Main Rapper? Rapper One?" Yu Jin asked as she pointed towards Cai Bing then Xia Yan, which they both nodded to liking the lines they would respectively get from those positions.

"I think I can sing too." Yeon Gyung told all of the girls. Princess had to refrain from rolling her eyes, she remembers her performance and there was no real good vocal in the group.

Young Eun was trying out for Vocal One which wasn't the one Princess wanted. And she was against Yeon Gyung, whose voice cracked reaching the notes in the song, all the girls knew who they would have as Vocal one. And she knew that Young Eun could sing well from previous rehearsals.

"Young Eun can be Vocal One." Yu Jin said as she wrote down the position for the girl

So far there were five positions sorted out fully.

Seo Young Eun was Vocal One.

Cai Bing was Main Rapper.

Xia Yan was Rapper 1.

Shen Xiao Ting had the Killing Part.

And Choi Yu Jin was Team 1's Leader.

~~

Seo Young Eun was Vocal One. Choi Yu Jin was Leader and Vocal Two. May was Vocal Three. Vocal Four was Kawaguchi Yurina. Shen Xiao Ting was Vocal Five and she had the Killing Part. And Cai Bing was Main Rapper.

Princess had to go against Yeon Gyung for Vocal six, it was her first time going for any lines, she had applied for almost all lines so far but had lost all of them against the strong vocals from all of the girls.

She sang her lines from the first verse and then immediately into the power vocals in the second chorus.

Before she sang her second favourite line of her's from the song if she got the part. "Bring out your Boss Bitch!"

Which got the attention from the other girls as she shouted it loudly for her vocals.

When Yeon Gyung did the lines she didn't get all the power into the lines as she didn't show she could do them.

Princess got all of the votes in the end for the part.

~~

Once all of the parts were out.

Seo Young Eun was Vocal One.

Choi Yu Jin was Leader and Vocal Two.

May was Vocal Three.

Vocal Four was Kawaguchi Yurina.

Shen Xiao Ting was Vocal Five and she had the Killing Part.

Uy Princess was Vocal Six.

Cai Bing was Main Rapper.

Xia Yan was Rapper 1.

Lee Yeon Gyung was Rapper Two.

And Inaba Vivienne was Rapper 3.

~~

In rehearsals all of the girls rehearsed solo and they came together to dance it. But Yu Jin had a few troubles in rehearsal so Xiao Ting and Princess helped her a bit with it.

"Right I'll take Xia Yan and show her, you take a different girl." Princess whispered to Xiao Ting before they started to get to work on helping out the other girls who struggled with the dance  a bit.

~~

In the Interim Check, they watched Team 2 first.

Before they went up. Princess knew she was going to pop at her chorus part.

"Half of your team has half of the TOP 10." The Vocal Master told the group of ten girls. "I can't wait."

They performed and Xiao Ting was late at the second Chorus.

When Princess went for her second chorus part she stormed around and she looked Ji A in the eyes as she sang her lines with a lot of power and depth in her voice, keeping it stable but also sounding strong. And she did an 'I'm watching you' with her hands and eyes at Ji A.

~~

Sunmi gave critiques first. "I'm not sure if this is really what five members of TOP 10 can put together. Shen Xiao Ting, it was the Killer verse."

Ju Hee continuing on. "It's all or nothing. You need to look like you're really going to kill this part. It has to be like this. But I didn't feel that."

Sunmi going to the next girl. Cai Bing who didn't know her lines. "Cai Bing, why did you become the Main rapper. You're ahead of the beat the whole time. You were off the beat every time."

"Yesterday was my first day of practice." Cai Bing told the group of Masters in front of them.

"But Xia Yan was so on point." The Vocal Master told them all. "If you go down as the Main Rapper, you'll take the team with you."

"I don't know how I feel with Cai Bing as the main rapper. She doesn't know the lyrics. Or the beat." Princess told the camera in her interview. "But I'm gonna help her none of us are going down and losing to them, we will win."

"Uy Princess...." Sunmi told the girl. "Well done, I liked the small touched you added especially towards Ji A."

"Thank you." She told the woman bowing.

"Your vocals stayed stable and very loud even with the heavy leaning and chest pops. Well done." The vocal Master told her as she bowed, she was happy she got praise on her part.

~~

With Cai Bing, Princess, Yu Jin and May's cell being voted the lowest Princess stayed later with Cai Bing.

She saw the girl crying. "Why are you crying?" She asked her friend in Chinese.

"Because of me..." Cai Bing started as Princess hugged her.

She stayed late with her, not leaving her to practice alone.

"Why are you staying with me?" Cai Bing asked the girl who wasn't even in her cell who had stayed behind with her.

"You're my teammate. You're my friend. I'm not letting you do this alone, it won't help your mentality on it all." Princess told her friend as she hugged her.

"Thank you." Cai Bing told her emotionally.

"Now listen to me. You can do this. It's not you might be able to do this. You CAN and you WILL. You are talented. Ignore what they say for a few moments and practice how you have been. And we will get this down for you. And I know you want to get this down and be alone, but I'm not going until you have this nailed. It isn't right to stay alone and do this you would get bored and it wouldn't be fun." Princess told the older yet shorter woman, as she sat with her on the floor.

"Ok. Thank you I needed this." Cai Bing told them as they hugged and giggled before they practised again.

~~

In rehearsals after this they all danced and everything looked perfect. Princess ran to Cai Bing. "See you can do this!" She told her, while she lifted her up off the ground a little bit, as she knew the girl was so happy, and just proud.

~~

In rehearsals they practised and when it got to Cai Bing's lines it was like a new woman. And the rehearsal was perfect.
