A boy by the age of 19 with raven, long hair and ruby red eyes ran down the stage with the other performers that were there. He had a feminine like features from his narrow-like face to his skinny, pale frame he could easily pass as a woman except for the fact that he had no breasts. This boy name was Izaya Orihara. He grew up in this Opera house learning the all that they could teach him. He was known as a prodigy at his age due to his ability to remember his scripts and his beautiful voice.

Yet there was a catch to this boy. His twisted ideals and his manipulative attitude made everyone hate him, but it was just a mask for the boy so nobody could get close to him. He was teased for his looks by the other children around him when he was younger. The only ones to care for him were Yukina and Shinra. Shinra stayed with him and encouraged him every day. Yukina was like a big sister that took care of him when he was injured and defended him from the old managers.

"Alright everybody! From the top please and this time do it with more feeling!" Alan said with a stern voice. "That includes you Namie! Act like you the star you're supposed to be!"

Izaya watched with a smirk as the stupid girl that thought she was more important than anyone else in the building.

"She wouldn't know how to act like that even if you gave her lessons. She sings like a frog!" Shinra said at the side of Izaya, making him jump.

"W- SHINRA! Don't do that to me!" Izaya said pushing Shinra playfully.

"Aww did I scare little Izaya?" Shinra asked pushing back at Izaya.

"N-no you did not!?" Izaya said blushing slightly.

Shinra was the only one he allowed to get close to him over time due to the pestering he always did when he was younger. Always talking about his headless fairy and about funny things that made Izaya laugh.

The manager, Alan, shot them a glare and walked out of the stage room, muttering under his breath about stupid actresses and their stupid attitudes. Namie looked around at everyone and narrowed her eyes at Izaya.

"Everyone get to their places like Alan said!" She said before turning away.

Izaya turned and walked towards his position on the stage. He stood with the other ballet dancers and got ready for the music to start. Izaya not being one for the big roles and always rejecting the offers of those from Alan, got him placed on the ballet group with Shinra. Although many women took the role as ballet dancers, there were only two men in the group.

As the song began Izaya and the other ballet dancers ran up to the front of the stage and started dancing. Namie walked onto the stage and started her singing which caused a lot of the people that were off to the side to cover their ears at her horrid singing.

Alan strode onto the stage right as this started with three men following behind him.

"Everyone! May I have your attention?" Alan said clapping his hands together and looking around. "Okay! These two have said that they are willing to buy this Opera house off of my hands since I am retiring."

Everyone's faces dropped into a scowl when he said that. Alan was the best thing that happened to the Opera house since the owner before Kitsuri. He treated everyone like they wanted to be treated and they were pretty sure the new managers wouldn't be doing that.

"This is Mr. Walker." Alan pointed to fox-like, blond man on the stage causing him to tip his hat to Namie. "This is Mr. Kadota!"

Alan pointed to the man that was a little bigger than Walker. He had black hair and brown eyes. Izaya looked the two men over and smiled. Shinra looked at Izaya and smiled as well.

"You have something planned for them?" Shinra said in a quiet voice.

"No, they just have a lot coming to them with Namie as a star! You know what I mean?" Izaya lightly pushed Shinra.

Shinra snickered along with a few other people around them. Alan looked at the ballet members.

"Is something funny?" Alan asked with a stern voice.

Everyone shook their head and they glared at Izaya for getting them in trouble. Izaya just grinned back at them as if he didn't have the care in the world. Alan sighed and then pinched the bridge of his nose. Pointing at the young man that followed them onto the stage, Alan spoke.

"This man right here is one of the contributors that will be paying the bills and taking care of the things that you need. His name is Kasuka. Treat him well."

Izaya blinked at the name. It couldn't be that Kasuka… The one that played with him when he was younger and then suddenly disappeared when his father died… He looked like him, with the dark brown hair and the brown eyes. The only difference between his Kasuka was that he didn't have emotionless eyes like this one did.

"Izaya… Are you okay?" Shinra asked waving his hands in front of Izaya's face.

"Huh? It's nothing… I just thought he was someone else." Izaya said with a little laugh along with it.

The man name Kasuka looked towards Izaya's way and then towards Namie. Kasuka walked towards her and took off the hat on his head and held it to his chest bowing slightly.

"It is an honor to meet the star of this Opera house." Kasuka said with a slight smile.

Namie looked down at him and smiled.

"It is honor to meet you as well." Namie said.

Izaya made a gesture of gaging. Shinra laughed and did the same thing, causing Alan to narrow his eyes at Izaya again.

"Well now that introductions are done, I will be leaving to Australia." Alan said in a happy voice and walked off the stage.

Mr. Kadota watched Alan leave and then looked at everyone one on the stage. His eyes landed on Namie and pointed at her.

"You! I would like a glimpse of your acting skills!" He said.

Namie glared at him and then clapped her hands at the girl at the side. The girl ran up to her and put her dog in Namie's arms.

"I will not be performing today! You can do without me!" Namie said walking off the stage with the girl.

Walker looked at Namie as she left and frowned.

"Now who is going to perform for us? Thanks a lot Kadota!" Walker said accusingly.

"Well it just means we have to cancel the show until we get a new star." Kadota said uncaringly.

Everyone gasped, they had a show that night and the seats were all booked. Yet they were just going to cancel the show on the people that paid.

Yukina walked towards the two new managers and pointed to Izaya.

"He can sing! Have him take the place of Namie!" Yukina said excitedly.

Kadota stared down Izaya, making Izaya twitch as if he wanted to run away. Izaya looked at Yukina pleadingly as if begging her not to do this.

"Very well! Let me hear you." Kadota said. "Well… Come over here, I don't have all day!"

Izaya didn't move from his spot, causing Yukina to go over and grab him by his arm and drag him over.

"Izaya sing for them please…" Yukina sighed.

"Fine…" Izaya said before closing his eyes and getting ready.

"Think of me, think of me fondly

When we've said goodbye

Remember me once in a while

Please promise me, you'll try

When you'll find that once again you long

To take your heart back and be free

If you'll ever find a moment

Spare a thought for me

We never said our love was evergreen

Or as unchanging as the sea

But if you can still remember

Stop and think of me"

OoOoOoOoO

A blond masked man with brown eyes walked around in his lair from under the Opera house. He held his head in his hands trying to figure out what else to write for his play that he had been working on. A sound from above echoed around his lair.

It was a beautiful song being sung by a familiar voice. It was not by that horrible woman named Namie, but by the boy that he tutored when he was just a child. The child caught his interest when he heard him sing inside that small room with candles. At first he thought the child was a girl due to the soft voice and the delicate looking face with the special one of kind eyes.

At first he thought he would just comfort the child and then leave him alone but the child stopped him by calling him his Angel of Music. From there he taught the child how to sing correctly and the child never stopped believing in him.

Sighing the man just closed his eyes and hummed a tune close to what Izaya was singing. This man, such a gentle soul but never able to love, was the Phantom of the Opera. Haunting the Opera with his threats and his music left to the boy Izaya!


Me: Shizuo you part was fun to make but I'm crying for some reason!

Shizuo: WHY!?

Me: I don't know! I just feel for the Phantom a lot!

Shinra: I just think your overemotional, Allena…

Me: Well I think you're obsessed with a headless woman!

Izaya: YOUR FAVORITE INFORMANT IS HERE AGAIN!

Me: OMG! YES! I've been waiting for you to come over!

Yukina: Can he please leave!?

Me: No! This is my living room and in fact this is my house!

Yukina: I am a roommate though!

Me: And so is Alicia, my twin my brother.

Alicia: Hello… I have been waiting for you guys to notice me… B-but you act like I'm not there.

Me: He's CANADA!

Alicia: Allena shut up!

Me: No! I got an Izaya and I'm not afraid to use it!

Izaya: What? I'm not helping you out with traps!

Me: That's mean!

Yukina: This is why I never like talking to him!

Alicia: Yeah… I'm going back to my room…

Shizuo: Who was that?

Me: My bro dude!

Shizuo: Oh okay… I'm going to have to remind you that we have to say goodbye to our readers.

Me: Oh yes!

Everyone: Arrivederci dudes! :3
