Keep doing high kicks

"Hey, I've noticed something about this girl..." Candace whispered to Carolina.

"What's that?"

"Look at what she's wearing on her feet," Candace pointed at Kacey's flats that she had been wearing since the morning, before everything started with Brooke. "Girl, what even are those?"

"I know, right?" Carolina scoffed. "What does she think this is? The gala?"

"Let me at it," Candace whispered to her, "let's ramp up the high kicks."

Carolina grinned. "All right, people!" She shouted at everyone, "let's get our high kicks practiced!"

Everyone sighed at this except Kacey, who seemed relieved at not having to do anything too technical. Kacey got in line with everyone and kicked her feet up one at a time. Carolina snuck up behind her, using her own foot to pull each of Kacey's shoes off each heel just before the foot touched the ground.

Soon enough, Kacey kicked each foot high and gasped as she saw her shoes fly up off her feet and over the chain-link fence.

"Guys!" Kacey shrieked at seeing her shoes - the last of her belongings that was actually hers - fly off and into the distance, irretrievable from beyond the chain-link fence cordoning the sections of this new campus off. "My shoes! We need to go get them!"

"No time!" Carolina barked with authority, "And better now than during the contest! You know someone could have been really hurt from that!"

"Yeah," Candace chuckled, "you ever see that scene in South Park with Butters?"

"And that reminds me," Carolina accosted Kacey, who was still doing high kicks with her bare feet tingling from the exposure to the astroturf, "there's this concept in cheerleading called uniform discipline," she lowered her voice. "No matter what happens to your outfit, you do not freak out or change your movement patterns. Is that understood?"

"Y-yes," Kacey muttered out, standing absolutely naked except for two velcro-taped pieces of fabric that she got second-hand.

"Good," Carolina grinned and nodded as she walked back to the front of the group. "Okay, now it's time for splits!" she shouted to even more groans from the squad.
