A/N: (A way to make this super obvious on who Connect8 are!^^)

Alright! We got another S Club 8 fanfiction parody! This time, the credit goes to me! 

So I actually went into detail about this in my fact book. It's on Wattpad, and I'll put the link in the inline comment here. >>>

But long story short: The original title was "English 8 Meet American 5." I wrote it back in 2004. I was 14 at the time. This work was actually first time I wrote The One Series characters. I already had them in mind at the time, stemming as far back to when I was 13. At the time, they had very different names, but they were still the same people. UTurn was originally a five-piece group instead. They were the very early versions of Andrew, Alyson, Justin, Bailey, and a third guy. A version of Ethan did join this group in a slightly later work called "Popstars:2004." But in this story, I can't tell if this guy was supposed to be either Ethan or Derrick. 

This story was going to be about S Club 8 going on tour in America with proto-UTurn and that's it. I only wrote a chapter and a half. I never finished the story. It was supposed to be sent to a fan page that had a fanfic archive. It never saw the light of day until a few years ago for my fact book. And now after almost 20 years, I finally added a new scene just for this parody!

This storyline is actually in "The Wanted," the second book of The One Series. In the meantime, enjoy this parody! I literally copied, pasted, and changed names for this! Once again, don't tell me to rewrite it and make it better. No, tell me to make look like bad fanfiction!

English 8 Meet American 8

ChapterOne

At the Boston airport, there was a plane landing. A lot of the people there were British. There were eight teenagers boarding off that plane. It was Connect8.

They were told to go to America for a promotion tour. Since its 2:58pm in Eastern Time, school was almost out for Summer Vacation.

Connect8 went to a school where they supposed to meet a group of teenagers there. When it was 3:10, school was finally out for the summer.

Sarah asked one of the teens there, "Where is the band called, UTurn?"

"In a classroom getting there backpacks ready."

"Thanks!"

Connect8 went inside. The whole place looked deserted. They found eight people in an open room. Faye didn't know if it was the group, so she asked, "Are you UTurn?"

"Yeah, we are," said a guy who looked liked a blonde Caleb. He sounded British.

"Aaaggghhhh!!!" screamed a girl who looked like Jessica Simpson.

"What is it?" asked Caleb.

"ARE YOU CONNECT8," said the girl, "THE BRITISH GROUP?!"

"Uh, yeah."

"I've been wanting to meet you, in PERSON!" She screamed.

"That's cool."

The girl gave Caleb a big hug that squeezed him a little.

"You're squeezing me!" he said.

"I'm sorry. Uh my name is Alyson Bauer, which my friends call me Aly.'

"'Aly'?"

"That's Bailey Richardson, Justin Harrison, Andrew Hawthorne, Derrick Armstrong, Amanda Hillel, Riley Brown, and Stacie Morales."

"Uh, that's great," said Faye.

"So uh, see you later," said Caleb, nervously.

"That was strange," said Bailey, who had long blonde hair.

"That was weird," said Sarah.

ChapterTwo

UTurn were getting ready to leave. Aly wanted to talk to Caleb and Alex. Justin and Andrew wanted to talk before they leave.

"So...we finally meet Connect8."

"Yeah?" asked Stacie.

"Yeah."

Meanwhile, Connect8 looked like they had a shock. They looked straight ahead without talking. Caleb wondered if Aly really like him.

"Do you think Aly really like me?" he asked.

"You don't you ask her," said Faye.

Caleb was about to go into the classroom when Andrew started talking.

"Are planning to go to the pool party with Krista?" Andrew asked.

"Caleb is SO hot!" said Aly.

"Aly, are listenin'?"

"Yes, sorry."

"That was really Caleb?" asked Justin.

"Yeah!" Aly said excitedly.

"Cool!"

"I wanna tell them about ballet," said Andrew.

"You know Andy, they might laugh at you," warned Derrick, who had spikey red hair.

When Caleb heard that, he tried not to laugh. But he did. He started snickering then laughed hysterically. His friends stared at him like if he was crazy.

"What's wrong with you?" asked Jerrod.

Caleb tried to stop laughing but couldn't. UTurn came out of their classroom when they saw Caleb laughing so hard.

When Caleb saw Andrew, he stopped laughing abruptly. He saw Andrew's fierce look.

"Whatever you do, please don't beat me up!" said Caleb, nervously.

Andrew looked at Alex, who was just watching this scene. Andrew walked up to Alan and asked, "Do you think my dancing is funny?"

Aaron said, "No, why?"

"Cuz we're both dancers."

"And?" Alec was confused by all this.

"So why is Caleb laughing?"

Andex was stunned. Aly walked up to Alyeex, and fangirled, "OMFG, AMEX!!!!!!!!1111111 I love your hair, your eyes, your smile, your jacket! OOOOHHH EMMMM GEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111111323335t4t34fergerg[dskb[psldadl"

"Um, thanks?" Aaron said. Everything was so confusing to Aaron.

Andrew said, "She's my girlfriend."

Aaron nodded his head. Andrew added, "You really think this is how we'll meet?"

"What do you mean?" AAArron asked.

Andrew replied, "Just because this is a fanfic written by some American teenage girl doesn't mean it'll be like this in real life. Wake up, Alex! And yes, that's your name!!"
