Danny went the next day to see Sam. She was there, praying. He then got an idea.

5 years later

This trophy from our saviors, from our saviors from the enslavinnng force of Rome!Pauline sang out.

"You know, somebody should shut her up," Tucker said to Jazz as they watched Pauline sing. Jazz nodded her head. "Ten francs one of us lower class will drop dead because our head exploded from her singing."

"Tucker, shouldn't you be working," Jazz said to the young man now. "I am kind of busy."

"Well, that is why I am here. I am here watching Val," Tucker said as he dreamily looked at one of the dancers.

"Hey, don't even talk to her. You are going to mess up one of my best dancers you know," Jazz told Tucker. Tucker backed away and started working again on the stage, he was afraid of Jazz's wraith.

Girl chorus:

With feasting and dancing and song, tonight in celebration

We greet the victorious throng, returned to bring salvation!

Men's chorus:

The trumpets of Carthage resound! Hear, Roman, now and tremble!

Hark to our step on the ground!

All:

Hear the drums, Hannibal comes!

Tucker watched as Dash came in for his part. He had to keep from laughing at get up. He placed cotton balls in his ear when they came by. He couldn't stand to hear anymore. Even the Phantom had a better voice, so when Danny wrote it sounded nice to Tuck but with this lot it was horrible.

Dash:

Sad to return to find the land we love threatened once more by Roma's far-reaching grasp

"Gentleman, gentleman…" Lancer said, as he stopped the music and was about to correct the sound. He didn't have to because Vlad Masters was there, with a couple right at his heels. He was talking to the young man of the couple.

"Rehearsal, as you see, are for the new production of Chalumeanu's 'Hannibal'," Vlad told the couple, hoping they will take the theater away from him.

"Mr. Masters, we are rehearsing here," Lancer said to the man, completely annoyed.

"Lancer and Fenton, ladies and gentleman, can I have your attention," Masters called out. Tucker stopped his working and so did the others. Up at the rafters the Phantom was even there. He wondered what Vlad was going to do. He never trusted the man. Everything went silent, well not that silent but you got the point. "As you know there was a rumor of my retirement. I can tell you all that it is all true."

"I knew it," Pauline said Dash.

Masters continued, "It is my pleasure to introduce you to the couple Star and Kwan Lee," Master ended.

"We are also deeply honored to introduce are new patron, Gregor," Star said right afterwards. Gregor came up, his white hair, tall, and older than the Phantom. Danny looked down to see Sam and everything else he forgot, until something hit his head. He looked down to see Jazz glaring at him. He smiled at his sister, and waved.

"My parents and I are happy to support the Opera," Gregor said as he walked toward the stage.

Masters waited for the young man to join them up the stage before he waved his hand at Pauline and Dash saying," Our leading soprano for five season now Pauline and Dash." There was clapping but it wasn't from Jazz, her dancers, or Tucker. They thought Pauline and Dash were stuck up and rude.

"It is nice to meet you two and I believe I am keeping you from your rehearsal. I shall be seeing the show of course this evening. My apologies," Gregor ended as he looked to Lancer.

"Thank you Gregor and Dash once more again," Lancer started. Gregor left as sound again came back to the theater.

"He loves me!" Pauline said all dreamy as she looked at Gregor. The couple moved with Master and they were taken to Jazz. They watched the dancers pratice.

"Who are those two dancing in the front?" Kwan asked.

"That is Sam Manson and Valeria Gray. Both are best dancers," Jazz said to the couple.

"Manson? She is not related to the famous rich violinist Manson is she?" Star asked.

Masters answered, "Yes, his only child, placed in my care at 12, when she came to live and train in the ballet dormitory." The couple and Masters left together, leaving the opera to do its job.

Chorus:

Bid welcome to Hannibal's guests, the elephants of Carthage!

As guides on our conquering quests, Dido sends Hannibal's friends!

Chorus with Dash and Pauline:

The trumpeting elephants sound, hear, Romans, now and tremble!

Hark to their step on the ground, hear the drums! Hannibal comes!

The song ended and Tucker was happy for that but knew something was coming up soon. Lancer was about to talk to Pauline.

"Pauline, Elissa in Act Three of 'Hannible'," Lancer said to Pauline.

"Ready," Pauline said to him. She looked at the dancers with great disgust.

Okay, how did I do? I actually found the lyrics for the movie because man when Carlotta sang in the movie (Carlotta is played by Pauline) I didn't get much. Read and Review. Tell me what you think.
