"Relax Usa, you'll get the part. I'm sure of it. You've only been practicing this part

for what, the last three years?"

"I know Ames, but I'm nervous as all hell. What if I choke and crack a note? I'd
never be able to live with myself."

"You'll be fine! You always did fine in high school, so why are you so worried and
nervous now?"

"That was high school. We're talking the big leagues now Ames! I heard that Duo

Maxwell would be performing! And that Rei Hino is trying for the lead role! Rei Hino! Have
you ever heard her voice?"

"Yes, but can she act? You know you can't just give up because you think she's
better then you Usa. Face it; you're a shoe in. Tell me again why I need to talk you up?"

"Rei Hino."

"Not good enough. You don't need me to tell you how good you are when you
already know it. Listen; go take a hot bath or something. Relax and don't worry so much
over it. I would hate it if you had a heart attack over all this stress."

"Alright. I'll talk to you tomorrow then?"

"Yeap, I'll be there bright and early."

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow, bye."

Usagi slumped back into her chair after hanging up the phone. Relax? How could
she possibly do that? She'd been dying to have this part ever since her parents had first
taken her to see the play. And tomorrow she was going to make it happen.

She picked the script up off of the table and began reading through it again. Not that
she needed to. She knew every line by heart. Every emotion, body movement, the lyrics,
and pitches, were all burned into her mind.

She soon sighed and stood up. Making her way to her bedroom, she paused by a
mirror in the hallway.

"Usagi," she said out loud, looking herself in the eye, "Tomorrow you will make it.
You will be Christine."

"Did you look at that turn out?" Mina asked, while taking her place at a long table.
She noticed that the rest of the cast members were also at the table, located on a huge black
stage.

"This is why we waited until today to audition Christine's role. It always has the
biggest turn out."

"No offense sir, but can we hurry up and bring out the babes?"

"Patience Duo, please," the man said. He then motioned for one of the stagehands to
open the door and allow the applicants in.

"Ladies, welcome," he said after they had filed in and found seats, "My name is
Quatre Winner and I am the director. Your audition will consist of one scene acted out with
the other cast members and a few bars of any song of your choice. I regret to inform you
that you will not be singing or acting with the other main character today. So you must
choose scenes without him."

A series of groans arose from the applicants.

"Now if you'll look behind you, you'll see two doors. You will be exiting through the
right door where one of the members of the stage crew will direct you to the warm up area.
We will be working in alphabetical order by last name and in groups of five. We will be
calling the first group of ladies in twenty minutes. Thank you and good luck."

After the ladies left, he instructed the on-lookers to sit in the last few rows and asked
them to remain quiet.

"Did anyone catch the groaners?" he asked, walking back to the table. Several of
them nodded.

"Good, if they are going to be upset, then they are not dedicated."

"Then how did Duo get his part?" Mina asked.

"Yeah! The only thing he's dedicated to is girls!" Lita added. The rest of the table
cracked up laughing.

"Hey! I happen to love my part!" he pouted.

"Alright everyone, you know the routine," Quatre said, signaling for the first group to
be showed in.
