Chapter 1-Think of Me
"Kairi! Look at the new patron isn't he cute?" Yuffie Giry, a young chorus girl at the Hollow Bastion opera house said to her friend Kairi, also a chorus girl.
Kairi looked up and gasped. Could it be?
"I k-know him."
"Really?"
"Yes it's Sora. His father knew my father, and my father would play the violin for us."
"Damn. I suppose that means he's of limits. Well that new manager is pretty cute too."
"Yuffie! You're probably half his age!."
"So. Look at my mother she's already working her magic on the other new manager."
Kairi looked at Aerith Giry who was flirting crazily with one of the two new managers, Cloud. She smiled at Aerith, who had been a mother figure to her for the past ten years. Aerith deserved to be happy. He husband had died from the heartless a few months after she had given birth to Yuffie, years before.
Kairi's breath caught as Sora walked by them. He showed no signs of recognizing her.
"He probably wouldn't remember me anyway. It was such a long time ago."
Yuffie gave her friend a sympathetic look as both girls took their places on the stage, for rehearsal. Selphie, the opera's best and most famous soprano, suddenly pushed past them and both girls exchanged a look.
She walked up to both managers and kissed them on the cheeks. They smiled at her as she took her spot in center stage. Orchestral music suddenly filled the theatre and Selphie opened her mouth. Kairi and Yuffie winced, Selphie's voice hurt their ears.
Think of me, think of me, fondly, when we've said goodbye. Remember me once in a while - please promise me you'll try-
Selphie screamed and jumped out of the way as a backdrop came crashing down from the rafters.
An uneasiness had settled over the opera. Talk of the opera ghost suddenly escaped from many lips.
Selphie huffed and walked over to Leon and Cloud. "I will not sing for you tonight! I'm tired of these things happening! We are leaving!" She called to her hairdresser and maid.
Leon and Cloud exchanged worried glances as Selphie stalked off backstage. "Where's Selphie's understudy?" Leon asked.
Several laughs were emitted on the stage. "There is no understudy for La Selphie."
Leon and Cloud looked like they were about to faint.
"Kairi can do it!" Aerith said hopefully to Cloud pointing to Kairi. "She is being tutored."
"By whom?" Cloud asked Kairi as she stepped forward.
"I don't know his name sir."
"Well lets hear it then."
Jaws dropped when Kairi opened her mouth and began to sing
