Author's note:There are many more characters but I don't either remember them or know how and when to put them into the story. Also since I don't know all the characters of Phantom of the Opera I'll be using the fruits basket character's names, you see I just get the plot of Phantom of the Opera I have no clue on anything else like people's names. Anyway I hope to get this story done in 7 chapters, no more no less.

Well I thought to myself why don't i just get this over with, cuz I'm going on a trip tommorow and i might not have access to a computer 'til Monday, gasp, so i might, if this goes well, come home to a bunch of reviews. Oh yeah i need someone to tell me what's the name of their school, you know the one the sohmas and tohru go to.

Chapter 1

'I remember it faintly sometimes and clearly at others,' said the old Yuki. The opera house was a place full of life and entertainment, now it's nothing but a run down old place, home of the spiders and cobwebs. Some say it wouldn't have happened if she didn't receive any part in the play, though some say it was always meant to be. I myself don't know which would have been better. Though I do wish it was all a dream than a living nightmare. Though I can tell you it, (whisper) I can tell you it …'

Flashback

In a busy town, posters were up for the Kayame Theater's next production, the great Akito was to perform; everyone had their tickets ready to go, and truly wished to see another vivacious show.

Yet as busy as it was in town the theater was much more. Since crafts, dancers, actors, etc, had to be sorted out.

'Come dancers, are you ready?'

'Come Tohru,' said Hanajima to her friend, taking her hand she led her friend to the stage.

'Okay people this is the last rehearsal before the show tonight, I want this to be perfection,' said Uotani firmly.

They all gathered on stage, when the main actor came stomping on to the stage with her shin in the air above.

'Are we ready yet? I've been waiting for soooo long,' said Akito in a whinny voice.

We were waiting for you, thought the rest of the crew.

'Yes, we are,' replied Uo.

The practice went well up until the part where crafts were brought on, during which Akito's snooty operatic voice filled the entire place. The conductor, Hatori, was having a troubled time keeping the orchestra in tune, playing the right notes and everything. As the ballet reached it's end there seemed to be more trouble progressing. Soon everyone was rushing to his or her parts, and even though the front seemed to go very graceful, the back had some difficulty. Akito then suddenly finished her part very, very loudly. Everyone froze with a smile.

'Bravo, bravo everyone,' Mr. Kasuma came up. 'Well you have all heard rumors that I have been selling portions of the theater away, I am here to say that they all true, here are you new owners of the theater, Mr. Shigure Sohma and Mr. Ayame Sohma.'

'Oh yes, you all were good, especially you madam,' Shigure said with a bow to Akito.

She nodded.

'Ahhh…. Yes madam,' Ayame said turning to Uo, 'Will you show us around.'

'Of course,' said Uo. 'The rest of you work on your parts, separately then we'll try putting it together again.

Tohru and Hana then went with the rest of the dancers. Uo and the new owners went around the theater. Uo showed them the front, the back, and each and every part in the play. Then they came to the dancers.

'Ahhh… they're all so beautiful,' said Shigure wide eyed, mouth open.

'Um, yes, and the one with the dark hair is my daughter.'

As the dancers did different positions the two men caught the eye of another young lady.

'Who is that young lady standing?' ask Ayame.

'Why that's Tohru Honda.'

'She isn't at any relation with Kyoko Honda is she?'

'Yes she is, the only child of her.'

'Yes, that woman was a great actor indeed.'

She then showed them some more of the place and it's general features, until it came for the operetta to continue in its next practice of the performance. Just like before it was a little chaotic in the back, but this time it seemed a little bit more graceful, and just like last time Akito's voice was loud.

Suddenly an entire curtain fell upon her. A dark figure then retreated into the shadows.

'Ahhh!' screamed Akito.

The whole stage gasped.

'What on earth was that?' demanded Ayame.

'That was the Phantom,' said Uo.

'The Phantom?'

'You mean the mysterious phantom of the opera?' asked Shigure, 'Why everyone knows that's all just a myth.'

'No he's real.'

'What happened?' Yuki asked coming into the theater.

'Oh everyone this is my brother Yuki, charming isn't he?' said Ayame proud.

Yuki gave a tiny smile.

Kamuza, who was still there, step up to him and offer to show him around, so the youth wouldn't have to worry.

Murmurs went around the stage.

'Did you see him Tohru?' questioned Tohru.

'Yes, I use to know him. Back when my mother was alive we were soul mates,' Tohru said, giving him another look. 'He probably forgot me.'

They glanced at him again as he walked away. 'He used to call me pudding,' she said. The two girls giggled.

Then came an envelope that fluttered down from above.

'What is it?' asked Ayame.

'It's a note from the Phantom, he says that Madam Akito is disturbing his peace and that his monthly wage of 6000 is due.'

'6,000!' proclaimed Shigure and Ayame together.

'Who does he think he is?' Ayame demanded. 'What work does he perform around here? What are his duties?'

'Well he's been here for a very long time.'

'That's no excuse.'

'It is if he harms the opera tonight as he did a moment ago.'

Akito was trying to stand up when all of a sudden the heel to her shoe snapped.'

'THAT'S IT!' she screamed. ' I am not going to perform in this play, not when it's this crazy! Or if we have some lunatic running around.'

With that she stomped away. Shigure and Ayame fled with her pleading for her not to go, but she turned around and screamed no.

'Well that's it,' said Shigure. 'We don't have the star of the show any more, and on our first opera owning the theater.'

Uo then came forward, 'Tohru can play the part, she been singing for a very long time.'

'Oh really?' said Shigure with some interest. 'How long have you been training?'

'For seven years,' replied Tohru in a soft voice.

'And who is your teacher?'

'Well I've never actually knew his name…'

Ayame then gave Shigure a look.

'Go ahead Tohru, sing,' urged Uo.

Tohru gave a nervous look.

Ayame then said 'I don't know…'

'Quiet,' Shigure admonished. 'Go ahead Tohru, sing.'

Tohru stepped up, opened her mouth, and a lovely voice flowed from her. Before she knew it she was singing the main part in the opera.
