Chapter 2: Meeting Your Destiny
Seiya's POV
After talking to social media we finally went inside the opera house.
When walking inside I was amazed by the structure and architecture of the building, everything from the detail to the beautiful pure white marble statues placed in the corners of the entrance.
" I must admit this is impressive " said Taiki looking around, " agreed " replied Yaten before looking at the giant poster displaying the operas act...
SILVER MILLENNIUM OPERA COMPANY
PRESENTS:
CRESCENT MOON DREAMS
PERFORMANED BY USAGAI TSUKINO
MUSIC BY THE SILVER MILLENNIUM ORCHESTRA
WITH SPECIAL GUEST VIOLINIST MICHIRU KAIOU
" I've heard of the violinist but as for Miss Tsukino I'm not to sure " I said out loud, " that doesn't surprise me the three of you are too into yourselves to even notice other talent " says someone from behind, turning quickly I see a tall guy with short blonde hair wearing a tuxedo. (AN: any guesses lol )
" And you are? " questions Yaten looking upset at the stranger, " I don't need to introduce myself to the likes of you three but please try not to fall asleep during the princess performance she's truly gifted " said the stranger before walking off.
" That jerk has some nerve talking to us like that " said Taiki glaring, " agreed " I replied just then another person came up to us, " threelights I'm so pleased to see you came " says a man in his 40's with grey hair wearing a tuxedo and smiling at us, " I'm sorry do we know you " I ask nervously. " Forgive me my name is Leo Watashi I own the silver millennium opera company " he explains holding his hand out.
We all take turns shaking hands with him, " It's very nice to meet you " said Taiki smiling, " the honour is mine I'm so pleased that you were able to come and see our stars opening night " explains Leo " it's just about time to start please allow me to show you where you'll be seated " he adds as we follow him.
Along the way many guests and other celebrities recognized us along the way we made sure to nod or wave.
" Tell me is this the first time coming to the opera? " asks Leo as we went upstairs, " yes it is " Yaten answered nervously, " I have to admit opera is something that we don't listen to " I answer smiling when we reached our destination. " Incredible were mere inches away from the stage " said Taiki as we admire the view.
" These are considered the best seats in my auditorium many have enjoyed watching from this view and we hope you enjoy tonight's performance " said Leo before leaving.
Taking our seats everyone starts to take there seats, even the orchestra begins to prepare.
" Well at least now we can't sleep if we wanted to or else everyone will see " jokes Yaten making myself and Taiki giggle, " we should enjoy this it may not be so terrible " I said just as the lights were dimmed down, the spotlight shined on stage followed by seeing Leo walk onto the stage just then a sudden eruption of applause was made.
Normal POV
As soon as the spot light landed on Leo everyone began to applaud, " thank you all for attending this evening many are familiar with the art of opera my company is to determined to keep it alive so that the new generation to come may enjoy it as so many have before us " explained Leo as he looked at the audience.
" Before we begin...I have the honour to introduce the world renowned violinist Miss Michiru Kaiou to join us for tonight's premiere " once announced a woman with aqua like hair done up neatly dressed in a black evening gown stepped out with her violin in hand. The crowd once again applauded while she and Leo shook hands after a brief second she joined the orchestra.
" Ladies amd Gentlmen tonight the silver millennium opera company presents our star from Vienna, Italy I give Miss Usagai Tsukino "...
Usagai POV
With my eyes closed I take slow steady breaths anxiously waiting before I step in front of the curtain that will be pulled up at any moment.
" Breath...just breath " I whisper as my earpiece set is placed on " your ready Miss Tsukino " said the stage crew, " thank you " I breath lifting the front part of my gown. The dress I was wearing for this special night was a beautiful floor length dusty rose ball gown with my shoulders showing, my shoes were the same colour and laced around my ankles. My hands were covered by sheer glimmering elbow length gloves.
Though my blonde hair being incredibly long was easy to style, it was curled and had a couple diamond pins placed so it looked like stars. I kept my makeup natural but my lips were tinted with a little pink gloss.
Once I stood in the middle of the stage I hear Leo's voice and in seconds he will announce me, bringing my hands together I begin saying a silent prayer...
" Mother please watch over me and that tonight be successful " I pray suddenly I hear it...
" Ladies and Gentlemen the silver millennium opera company presents our star from
Vienna, Italy I give Miss Usagai Tsukino "
I watch the curtain rise up as well as hear the loud applause from the audience, the spotlight shines on me while I step forward a bit, I smile a lightly seeing the full auditorium.
Closing my eyes the orchestra begins playing I take a moment to feel the gentle melody and beat of the music, even Michiru's graceful playing can be heard. Taking a deep breath I begin...
" I'm trying to hold my breath... "
I look out to the crowd as I begin singing and notice many people of great importance
" Let it stay this way
Can't let this moment end
You set off a dream in me
Getting louder now
Can you hear it echoing? "
I bring my hands up close to my heart only to notice how fast it's beating
" Take my hand
Will you share this with me?
Cause darling without you "
My eyes start searching through the audience trying to find the one who has my heart, but I can't find him
" All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky, will never be enough,
Never be enough "
As my eyes continued to search from the side balcony seats my eyes meet with another pair of eyes
" Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll "
I quickly shift my eyes elsewhere and continue to perform before anyone else suspects anything, where is he?
" Never be enough Never be enough
For me,
Never Never
Never Never "
" Never...For me...For me "
All of the string instruments playing together sounded incredible, my mind had forgetten that I was searching the audience, I should put it aside for now. This night means more to me then anything...
" Never enough...Never enough...Never enough "
" For me...For me...For me "
" All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky "
" Will never be enough "
" Never be enough "
" Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll "
" Never be enough...Never be enough "
" For me "
" Never, Never "
" Never, Never "
" Never, Never "
" Never, for me "
Unable to resist my eyes met once again with the stranger who's eyes reminded me of the night sky...
" For me "
" Never enough "
" Never, never "
" Never enough "
" Never, never "
" Never enough "
" For me...For me...For me "
Suddenly stopping I look up
" For me "
As I finished the last note along with the orchestra ending in silence, the audience applaud and cheered along with standing up. Taking a few breaths I smile and take a bow...
Seiya's POV
As soon as the last part was finished almost immediately everyone began to applaud, Yaten and Taiki were just about to stand up but like a bullet I stood up applauding for the angel that stood on the stage.
Not for a single second during her performance did I take my eyes off her, but also our eyes met a few times.
" She truly is amazing " I said in amazement " I've never heard anyone sing so purely before " I added looking at Taiki and Yaten who looked at me strange, " what's wrong with you two? from one artist to another give her ovation " I ask as they finally started to applaud.
Throughout the rest of the performance I couldn't help but get more captivated by not just her voice but the beauty she possessed. I can't remember when was the last time I was ever this interested in another fellow singer. One thing is certain I need to meet her.
9:30pm
It broke my heart to see the performance come to its end, when the final song was finished Usagi was given a standing ovation by everyone followed by Leo walking onto the stage once more to give her flowers.
We were all instructed to head toward the ball room where the after party would take place to celebrate opening night.
" Would you like some champagne? " asked the waiter holding a tray to us, " thank you " said Taiki as we all took glasses, " everyone is talking about the show " said Yaten before taking a sip, " who wouldn't be talking after an incredible performance " said a familiar voice making us turn to see the same guy who insulted us earlier.
" We meet again " I said glaring at him, " I'm surprised you three didn't fall asleep I figured you would ruin the princess performance with your atrocious snores " he said smiling, " we would never disrespect another artist " replied Taiki holding his glass up to his lip.
" Haruka...please behave yourself " said a kind calming voice " we don't want to cause a scene tonight do we? Imagine how upset she will be after working so hard? " explains Michiru smiling at the one she called Haruka, " your right forgive me " replied the one called Haruka offering his arm to Michiru who got him to calm down.
" The threelights I didn't know you were amongst the many invited? " said Michiru smiling at us, " we couldn't turn down the invitation " I said smiling at her, " we may have busy schedules but tonight was definitely worth coming for " replies Yaten politely. " Are you close friends of the star? " Taiki asks curiously.
" Yes we go back years ago before and after she left for Italy " explained Michiru in a sad tone of voice which didn't go unnoticed by myself or the others. " Oh look there's the conductor " said Haruka attempting to change the topic, " your right I should go greet him...forgive me for leaving enjoy the evening " said Michiru before her and Haruka walked away.
I downed the rest of my champagne I couldn't help but get upset whenever I see that guy, " I can't stand that guy " I growled in a low tone of voice, " yeah she can be a bit rude " said Yaten getting both myself and Taiki's attention. " What!? " I asked before quickly glancing at Haruka, " wow could of fooled me " said Taiki before drinking.
Just then everyone started to applaud as the star of the night enters the room. My eyes widen slightly she had changed into an elegant grey cocktsil dress that hugged the curves of her body along with her hair pulled to the side.
Before I knew what was going on I walked towards her where guests were congratulating her.
Usagi's POV
When I entered the ball room with Leo applause were heard once more making me feel a little overwhelmed, Leo told me that tonight was a huge success and that the next shows to come were booked.
After being away in Venice for so long I felt welcomed and my heart filled with warmth. My love for opera started when I was 12 when I was sent to study in Italy at a prestigious boarding school where my love for singing began, soon I was taking lessons in the beautiful art followed by writing my own songs.
But when I turned 14 my mother passed away unexpectedly from an illness, I continued my studies and training in opera for a few years whenever I performed I was told that my voice had a lot of emotions but truth be told I sang thinking of my mother. I missed her dearly.
Then as the years went by my talent was noticed by many and I was performing all across Europe for well known opera companies til one day I was personally asked by Leo to join his company in Japan. Even though it broke my heart leaving Venice apart of me was telling me to return back home.
After receiving many if not countless praises I was ready to enjoy the nightly festivities, " May I have everyone's attention please...tonight's opening was more then just an incredible success but it's to celebrate a welcome to our companies star Miss Usagi Tsukino " announces Leo making me blush as applause were heard.
" Leo you've been more then wonderful " I said smiling just as he was about to speak he looks up and smiles, my cheeks start to warm up as I see a gentleman with long black hair neatly tied back walk up to us along with 2 others but with silver or brown hair.
" Good evening Leo " said the one with black hair smiling, " good evening...Miss Tsukino may I introduce you to the threelights Seiya, Taiki and Yaten " says Leo smiling. " It's a pleasure to meet you " I replied as I shook hands with two of them but as I was about to shake hands with the black haired one he brings my hand to his lips lightly kissing the surface, making my heart stop beating momentarily.
AN: what'll happen next what do you think?
