"Good morning, ladies." A man said. "I am Monsieur Trudeaux, the manager of the Opera Populaire." After Monsieur Trudeaux finished telling everyone about the audition process, all the girls were given a number. Holly was number ten. After waiting for what seemed like hours, it was finally Holly's turn. "Mademoiselle, if you are ready to begin, we will start at the beginning of Elissa's aria in act three." Monsieur Trudeaux said. Holly then took a big breath. This was the song she had been preparing ever since she first heard about the audition. All of a sudden, Holly froze. She couldn't remember the first words. Then, somehow the words began to flow out of her mouth. Think of me, think of me fondly, when we say goodbye. When she sang, her voice sounded like honey. After singing the final note, Holly breathed a sigh of relief. She was finished with the audition. It was one of the scariest auditions in her life. She had never auditioned in front of so many people before. If there had been one more person listening to my audition, I think I would have fainted. What she didn't know was that there had been one more person listening to her, five stories below the ground.
A/N: So, someone is below the opera house. Some of you probably already know who it is, but if you don't, you'll meet him in the next chapter. Sorry about the short chapter. Don't forget to review and tell me what you think!
