Maile takes over

After two weeks of Maile being in the squad, Piper had planned to take a trip to Rockstone to explore the town and see Elianna and Jentzen. Mailie had wanted to be the ringleader for Piper, so Piper let her do so while Piper was out on her trip.

One day, Mailie was being praised by the whole squad for being an awesome ringleader.

"We love you as our ringleader," said Lev. "You are amazing!"

"Thanks, y'all!" Maile replied with a huge smile.

"Yea and that prank that you did to Emily was really good!" Lyon said. "She was literally crying!"

"Yeah, I would never ignore her," Mailie responded with a laugh.

"So what's the game plan for today?" Emily asked.

"Well you know, I was thinking of doing a little something special for Piper," Maile said. "But I'll discuss it later. For right now, let's do a challenge!"

She then calls Stephen over to film the challenge. He set up the camera and the video started.

"So basically, we will be doing a try not to say that name challenge. You can only say d descriptions of the person or anything related to the person. For example, if you can't say Emily, you can say Piper's tallest best friend, the one that did this video, or maybe Harley's owner. Harley is Emily's puppy. The game will last until a person says the person's name and will get eliminated. Then it will move on to a different name. Is everyone ready?"

Everyone is prepared so round one of the game begins.

Lev starts. "So Emily, how's the channel going with you and my girlfriend?"

"It's going great," Emily replied. "I honestly think that the channel will be a huge success. We gained 15 thousand subs in a whole day which was crazy!"

"Yes, it is," Lev said. "It was my idea, not hers!

"Oh wait really?" Emily said shocked. "I thought Piper did th-- no-- wait. No, I didn't it just came out."

"Emily is eliminated!" Malie announced. "Only two more people to go."

"How did I know that I was going to fail?"

"Well for one thing," Lev added. "I wasn't actually the one that had the idea of the channel in the first place. I said that just to trick you and boy did it work!"

Emily had her arms crossed with anger. "Lev why?"

Lev just shrugged his shoulders.

"Well you did good," Maile said. "And hey, I'll give you a bag of M & M's if it makes you feel better!"

"Why thanks," Emily said. "The bag was empty in minutes. Everyone was impressed.

"Guinness book of world record for how fast you can eat M & Ms in a bag!" Lev joked.

"I guess so," Emily replied.

The challenge went on.

"Do you know how nice Lev is?" Jenna questioned.

"Um, Jenna?" Lev called. "That's true but, you weren't supposed to say my name though."

"No! I don't believe this!" Jenna said. "Well, I'm out."

"And the winner is, Lev!"

"Well that sure didn't last long," Lev remarked. "But yay I won!"

"Well, do y'all want to do another challenge?" Maile asked.

"I'm really interested in what you wanted to do afterward," Emily said.

"Ok so I was planning on a surprise for Piper," Mailie began. "She has made it to 9 million subs and we will do a-

"Hold up, hold up, hold up," Frank interrupted. "We did this so many times! It's getting so old."

"Whatever Frank," Emily said.

"So anyway," Maile continued. "We will do a celebration for the milestone. It is amazing how many of these surprises that y'all had given to Piper.

Then Polly comes downstairs.

"Did someone say surprise?" she asked excitedly.

Maile thought she had seen Piper so she tried to come up with a lie. "It's for one of my friends and we were discussing it here!"

"Really?" Polly asked. "That's so nice of you, You should do a 9 million party for my sister Piper. It would be most appreciated!"

Mailie got very confused. "Wait what? What are you talking about? Did you cancel the trip"

"No no no." Polly laughed. "I'm Polly, Piper's sister.

"Oh, I'm sorry about mistaking you like that!"

"It's ok. I get that a lot. I've been called Piper 17 times and yes I counted."

"Y'all do look the same. I love the ponytails."

"Thanks! This is my favorite style that I like to do with my hair."

"Do you plan on having your own squad one and following your sister's footsteps?"

"I might!"

"So I was discussing to everyone about the 9 million celebration party that you mentioned earlier."

"She would love it!"

"But I need help to get everything decorated."

"Meir can help you. He's the best at that."

"Great!" Mailie knew what props she would use and knew where to put them. With the help of Stephen, she got in contact with Meir and he loved the idea.

He came at around 2 pm and he started to build the party. But there was a problem.

"Um guys," Stephen said worriedly. "Hunter just called me and said that he and Piper will be on their way by this evening."

"Oh no," Maile said. "We won't have enough time to get everything ready. What can we do"

Stephen thought. Then, he had an idea.

"We actually do have plenty of time. A month ago, we created another house on the eastern side of LA for the winter season. Then when Christmas was over, we changed it into a special house dedicated to the squad. So she can wait there!"

Maile was surprised. "Wow, that's amazing and is so cool!"

After the conversation, Stephen called Hunter, saying that they had to go to Squad World instead of Piper's house to do a photo shoot. He already told Jordan about the party and was helping out to distract Piper by doing a photo shoot.

Piper and Hunter's point of view:

Piper recognized that Hunter wasn't going the right way. "Who was that on the phone? And where are we going?"

"Stephen," he replied. "We have to do a photoshoot at Squad World."

"But why can't we do it at my house?" Piper asked. "I usually do them there."

"Well it's a bit different," Hunter said. "We decided to change it up a little bit. This will be an awesome change!"

"But Hunter, can I see the cats before I go there?" Piper asked. "I hadn't seen them for so long!"

"I'll have someone there record them," Hunter replied.

He calls Polly and she recorded the cats for Piper to see. She loved seeing them after 2 weeks.

When Piper arrived at Squad World, Jordan was already set up for the photo shoot. Roxy was also there, she bought nice clothes for Piper. Ashley, a professional photographer like Jordan, was also there to take pictures of Piper's outfits and get them to put on her website.

Back at Piper's house, the props were all put in the desired areas. The banner was still currently being put up.

"This place looks so amazing!" Maile said.

She also brought out special guests to the party. These were some of the people that won the squad of the month last year:

Natalia and Izzy. They were happy to be at the party celebrating their favorite influencer accomplishing the milestone.

"I can't wait to see Piper's reaction," Natilda said.

"Same," Izzy said. "She will be so happy that you did this."

"Meir helped me and put the props and decorations in," Maile said while Meir gave her a thumbs up.

"All right, everything is complete! Now Piper can see it and have some fun!"

"Yay!" Maile shouted. "Now all we do now is wait!"

It didn't take long at all when they saw the jeep.

"Here she comes," Izzy said happily. "Should we do a prank on her?"

"Yea I will," Maile said. "She did a prank on me when I was squad of the month. So I will get her back."

Maile went to Piper's room to start the prank

A hidden camera is placed a few seconds after she went to the door. When Piper entered the door, she was surprised.

"Happy 9 million subscribers Piper!" Everyone shouted.

Lev hugged Piper. "I missed you so much."

"This is so pretty!" Piper exclaimed. "Thank you so much! I love the balloons and the designs and everything!" She couldn't stop smiling.

"I also added a little story to the new channel!" Emily said. "Check it out!"

"Ok, but first, I gotta go to my room for something," Piper said while there is available giggling.

As she went up to her room, she noticed that the door is open.

"Who's in my room?" she asked. She then saw Mailie.

"Oh thank you for the surprise! I love it so much."

There were 5 seconds of silence

"Hello?

She walked in closer and waved at her. "Maile?"

"Hey"

She then saw the facial expression.

"Is everything ok?"

"Leave me alone," Maile said in a quiet tone.

"But this is my room," Piper stated.

"I don't care," Maile said. "Please leave!"

She did and she then saw Jenna.

"Hey Piper," she said. "You ready to see the video?"

"No thanks," Piper said.

Jenna noticed that she wasn't smiling.

"What’s wrong Pipes?" she asked. "You look sad."

"What have y'all said to Maile," Piper asked weakly. "She told me to leave her alone."

"Here she comes now," Jenna said as Maile was walking toward them smiling."

"I can't take this anymore," she said giggling. "It was a prank!" She then hugs. "I'm so sorry."

"I was so worried," Piper said.

"Well I had to get to you back for pranking me," Maile said smiling.

"Sure you did," Piper smirked. "Ok Emily, I'm ready.

"Sweet let's go!" Emily exclaimed.

The party was plenty of fun, the Rock Squad was invited and they did some games and challenges. Everyone had taken pictures with Piper as well and were sent to their feeds and stories. The fun lasted until midnight.

When the party was over, Emily showed Piper the video and she enjoyed it and decided to keep the channel active.

"Thank you all for the amazing fun today!" Piper said to the crowd. "Love you all and stay safe!"

Everyone cheered and congratulated her one final time and then everyone went home and all the Rockelles went to sleep.

As for the Pemily Connection, the channel grew and it was up 45.6 thousand subs that day alone. Piper and Emily had decided to do something special for their next post.
