A/n: Since it seems people really want this thing to be done,I shall happily entertain you all. *smirk* On with the show.

L.M: *standing out on the stage,having a staring contest with a good half of the audience.....Audience Member 1 & 2 are still growling at each other* ...Raoul is the most intelligent person in the world.

Audience: *roars with laughter...and promptly loses staring contest*

L.M: ok...so while we're waiting....anyone wanna do a sing along?

Audience Member 1: NO.

L.M: *narrows eyes* ....you're on The List now.

Audience Member 1: *shrugs and goes back to growling at 2*

Audience Member 2: *growls right back*

L.M: well....erm...*looks off stage* Any luck on finding our wayward friends yet?

Erik: *from off stage* not yet...we found Andre and Firmin's jackets...

Christine: *whispers,but that echo comes into factor again* and their pants.

L.M: *snickers and tries to shush the audience before they get out of hand* Try one of the dressing rooms.......or a bathroom...I'm positive you'll find'em.

Raoul: *has somehow managed to get up to the balcony* OOOOOOOoooo look at all the pretty masked people....

Audience Member 3: *turns and squeals* OOOO! He's gonna jump,he he!

L.M: we could only be so lucky,tifa girl,turn around.

Audience Member 3: *turns back around then looks around a bit* ....why am I here again?

L.M: we had someone kidnap you.

A.M 3 (all audience members will be A.M from now on,their numbers tell them apart.): Oh..ok.

L.M: ...ok...any year now....*blinks at 3 more people attempting to get in* Scythe...let'em in...

Scythe: *sighs,then remembers the threat from earlier and half runs over to let them in*

People: *two rush the stage,one stands back and looks somewhere between thoughtful,confused,and a bit unhappy about this whole bit.*

L.M: Eek! *tries to run away* HELP!!!

Person 1: *glomps on to her leg* Big SIS!!! Lu LU!!!

L.M: *whimpers*...DAAAAAANNNNIIIEEEELLLLL!!!

Daniel: *is over in a corner,flirting with a girl* well yeah,you know how it is,teachers just never give you enough time for anything...

L.M: DANIEL GET OVER HERE BEFORE I SMACK YOU!

Daniel: *looks up,looks back at the girl,sighs,and plods over to help*

Scythe: *is already dragging the other person away*

Person 2: She's my GIRLFRIEND! Let me GO already!

Scythe: Nope. Not until L.M says so.

Person 3: *meanders over to the middle of the crowd,finds a seat,and plops down silently and just watches*

L.M: *STARES at 2*...how...? *looks over at one of the Phans* you weren't kidding when you said you guys came from everywhere! *bounces off the stage and jumps onto Person 2*YAY!

Person 1: *pouts*

Person 3: *sits there,indifferently,kind of looking like Squall.*

L.M: *realizes who 3 is*....ut oh....

Person 2: *happens to realize it at the same time* What's HE doing here?

L.M: *narrows eyes at 2* leave'im alone. *thinks,suddenly gives 2 an evil grin* Go sit next to squally boy.

Person 2: *narrows eyes back*

L.M: *crosses arms over chest* No Tali for a month.

Person 2: *sighs and walks off...but sits about 12 seats down from squally boy*

L.M: ...well at least they aren't killing each other.*glances at Daniel*...yet.*heads off stage to check things out*

Person 1: *sits himself in a front seat,pouting a bit*I wanted her to sign Luna's picture...

AM 1: Oh get over it...ACK!

AM 2: *shoves him over a chair with a grin then hugs Person 1* It's okay hun,ask her after the show.

P (p-person.) 1: *smiles slightly* alright.

*scene change,backstage area*

L.M: *walks around,looking into dressing rooms curiously,and behind a few sets* herrrreee managers managers managers managers...

Nadir: *runs into L.M* Excuse me,you haven't seen....*recognizing her* Oh.

L.M: Haven't seen who? and Oh indeed.

Nadir: *blinks,wondering what he did this time and if a chandelier is going to hit him anytime soon (A/n: he's about the only character I've ever seen NOT get hit.): Erik. He's disappeared as well.

L.M: *twitches* Erik's...missing?!

Nadir: That's what I just said..

L.M: *runs over and rips the fire alarm down,grabs a megaphone,runs out on stage and screams* ERIK'S MISSING!! EVERYONE GET THEIR BUTTS IN GEAR AND LOOK!!!! NOW!

Audience: *crickets,except for a few -really- psycho phans who instantly rush off to do L.M's bidding*

L.M: *faint blink* Good enough. ...Now how do we turn the fire alarm off...?

Erik: *walks out from the backstage curtain,hands over his ears* What IS that infernal screeching?!

L.M: *blinks*...uh oh.

Phans: *run back,dressed as a few different types of Erik's,look at each other then start a shoving match to almost beat AM 1 & 2's*

L.M: really....*shakes her head and looks down at Person 2* Hey...Lark,help me with somethin'?

Lark: *eyeing Person 3 darkly* What.

L.M: Go calm down the Erik imposters..either that,or get them up on stage and let me see if I can work something out...*smirks evilly in Erik's direction*

Erik: *whimpers* I need counseling...

Christine: You already got it in someone else's fic though..

Erik: It didn't help OKAY?! *twitches*

Lark: *is over with Scythe and Daniel,attempting to stop the Erik look-a-likes* Now look here..

L.M: *glances at the song list* Where are the managers..? They're up first....

Andre: *runs out,pantless but thankfully with boxers on,whimpering* Where did I put my pants...?

Firmin: *from off stage* Hee hee...I dunno...

Lefevre: *is dragged out by Nadir*

L.M: *grins* Good Nadir,you get a treat.

Raoul: Like a pinwheel?

L.M: *looks annoyedly at Raoul...who is STILL up in the balcony* Get your stupid little foppy butt down here or I'll send Gabe after you.

Audience: *shudders*

Raoul: Who's....Gabe....?

Gabe: *taps him on the back calmly*

Raoul: *turns around and flushes*

Gabe: *smiles sweetly* -I'm- Gabe. Planning on following her orders any time soon?

Raoul: Uh huh...*hunkers down*

Gabe: Then do so.

Raoul: *jumps off the balcony,thankfully he hits his head,so no damage,and scurries up to the stage*

Gabe: *sits in the balcony,happening to have it all to himself* Smart boy.

L.M: *grins*Thanks Gabe.*looks around* Ok..now..let's see....We still need Buquet,Debienne,Poligny and Moncharmin..

Moncharmin: *runs out,being chased by Buquet* We're here! AH! someone get'im away from me!!!

L.M: *watches with a little interest for a while then shakes her head* Didn't wanna haveta do this...Talon..could you?

Talon: *sighs and walks out from backstage* I was supposed to be tech only.

L.M: Yeah,I know. But kick Buquet in the ass and restart his brain?

Talon: Fine. *walks over,does as L.M says,Buquet freezes*

Buquet: *looks around*...where am I....who am I?

Erik: You're the idiot I hung because you kept telling the ballet girls how to avoid my Punjab.

Buquet: Oh yeah! Okay then.

L.M: *sweatdrops and looks around at everyone,who has finally assembled on stage* Alright. Since you're all FINALLY here,you're all singing. Maybe a few audience members too.

A.M 1: *suddenly looks slightly wary*

Person 3: *smiles a bit* I'd be happy to sing.

L.M: *looks back* sorry Maddiun,no eyes on me.

Maddiun: *frowns a bit and goes back to looking slightly brooding*

Person 1: *suddenly launches into Cowboy bebop's end song* Aishiteta to nageku ni wa amari ni mo toki wa sugi te shimatta mada kokoro no hokorobi o iyasenumama kaze ga fuiteru

L.M: *clamps her hands over her ears and screams* shut UP Dash!

Dash: *hunkers down*sorry....

L.M: *twitches some and looks back at the cast* NOW. No more delays. You have 10 minutes to learn the lines to the songs you will be assigned. Managers,you're up first. Your costumes are in dressing room 3.

Debienne: ...costumes?

L.M: *smirks* Costumes. Your lyrics and cds are also in there...*pause*..nevermind. I'll come with you and show you how to work a cd player...

Andre: *looks -very- confused as all 6 managers troop off after her and Talon takes his position back at the sound and lighting board*

Lark: *walks back and flops down beside Scythe then looks around* Where'd she go?

Scythe: Luna girly?

Lark: Yeah.

Scythe: *shrugs* she disappears a lot...

Lark: I see..*begins his glaring bit at Maddiun again*

Maddiun: *just kind of ignores it and stares off into space*

Daniel: *walks over and pokes him gently* Didn't know you were going to make it here too.

Maddiun: *blinks* Yes.

Daniel: Cool. Why is that guy glaring at you?

Maddiun: *looks up at him*

Daniel: ooohh...

Lark: *still glaring away at Maddiun*

AM 1: *looks around* I'm bored.

Dash: So am I,wanna rp?

AM 1: No.

Dash: ok. um..let's see. Hi Lythos,how are you today?

Lythos: *glares at him* I said I didn't want to Rp.

Dash: I know.

AM 2: *sighs* Dash,leave Lythos alone.

Dash: Ok Isis.

Scythe: Wish Iria was here right now...

AM 3: I'm here! FFSU!

Scythe: OKAY!

AM 3: YAY!

Scythe: So...about Glenn,Tifa...

Tifa: *nods*I'm listening..

*BackStage*

L.M: NO,it's not Young HEN. Young MEN!

Andre: What the hell is this jacket made out of...?

L.M: *sigh* People. Now just put it on.

Poligny: Do I have to wear the hat?

L.M: Yes.

Moncharmin: Me to-

L.M: *starting to lose her temper* Yes.dear.

Moncharmin: *gulps* okay.

*On Stage*

Erik: *looking up into the rafters*too flimsy to support any decent weight....

Nadir: Erik,what are you doing?

Erik: *jumps and turns*Nothing.

Nadir: *frowns,eyes him,then heads off*

Raoul: I wonder if kitties really DO land on their feet...

Ayesha: *gulps* mew...

L.M: *rushes out* 1 minute until the first song! Everyone clear the stage! *snickers darkly* Talon,get the music ready!

Talon: Can't believe you're using this bloody god awful shit...

L.M: It's supposed to be torture...

Lythos: but you're ALREADY on stage.

L.M,Erik,Lark,Scythe,Maddiun,Daniel,Isis,Dash,Gabe,and Tifa: *all glare at Lythos*

Lythos: just...kidding....

L.M: Hmph.*looks at her watch*okay..15 seconds! Lights down,Lark,be a dear and get the ones in the actual room for me?*smiles*

Lark: *smiles back*Sure. *lights go off*

*Stage is black,people can be heard tromping onto it as a mutter of 'I think these chaps are chaffing me..' is heard*

L.M: Now Talon!

*Music comes up..it sounds faintly familiar...but the crowd just can't place it until the managers are revealed in their costumes. A cowboy,a policeman,a construction worker,an indian,a biker,and a (someone correct me if I'm wrong) navy officer*

Lefevre as Policeman: Young man, there's no need to feel down. I said young man, pick yourself off the ground. I said young man, 'cause you're in a new town. There's no need to be unhappy.

Moncharmin as Construction Worker: Young man, there's a place you can go. I said young man, when you're short on your dough. You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find. Many ways to have a good time. *cringes realizing what he just sung*

Audience: *roars with laughter*

Andre and Firmin as Cowboy and Indian,Andre lassos Firmin: It's fun to stay at the

L.M: *shoves Raoul out in a bright pink leotard,complete with tutu* DO IT!

All Managers: *singing* YMCA

Raoul: *spelling out the letters with his arms,looking rather upset* I don't like this....

Madame Giry: Meg,he has better form than you do..

Meg: Ha ha.

Poligny as Navy Officer: They have everything for young men to enjoy. You can hang out with all the boys. *pause* Oh dear lord...

Daniel,Scythe,Maddiun and Lark: *give involuntary shudders*

Debienne as Biker: Young man, are you listening to me. I said young man, what do you want to be.

Poligny: Yours

Debienne: WHAT?!

Poligny: She told me to say it!*points at L.M*

L.M: *snickers darkly* Go on,go on!

Debienne: *giving Poligny a wary look* I said young man, you can make real your dreams. But you've got to know that one thing.

Poligny: *chiming in happily* No man does it all by himself! I said young man, put your pride on the shelf! And just go there, to the YMCA. I'm sure they can help you today!

All Managers: *singing* YMCA

Raoul: *spelling again* I'm going to break a nail!

Andre: Young man, I was once in your shoes *reaches over and pats Raoul's shoulder comfortingly* I said, I was down and out with the blues. I felt no man cared if I was alive. I felt the whole world was so jive.

Firmin: *getting rather snuggly in that lasso* That's when someone came up to me. And said young man, take a walk up the street. There's a place there called the YMCA. They can start you back on your way.

All once more: It's fun to stay at the YMCA

Raoul: *looking annoyed* Do they have to say it so often?

L.M: Shut up Raoul.

Crowd: *having gotten into this* YMCA!

Raoul: AHH!*spells it as fast as he can*

Crowd: *getting an idea,they begin chanting it so fast they sound like hamsters on speed*

Raoul: *screams as he tries to keep up*SLOW *pant* DOWN!

Crowd: *continue*

Raoul: *faints*

Crowd: *cheers*

All managers: You can get yourself clean

Buquet: *comes along with a push broom and sweeps Raoul off the stage*

All managers: You can have a good meal

Firmin: *lusty wink at Andre* You can do whatever you feel.

Andre: *blushes*

L.M: *laughs as music stops and hurries them off stage,getting a round of applause* Okay,someone revive the fop,Christine,we'll need you and Erik for this next one too. Nadir,drag Lythos up here...you guys get back up.

Nadir: *eyeing her more warily than ever*...alright...

Lythos: BACKUP?! NOOOO!!

L.M: *cackles*
