Prologue

CHICHIRI: Sold no da! Your number sir? Arigatou no da. Lot 665, no da: a papier machè music box, no da. Attached, figure of a cat in Persian robes playing the cymbals. It still works no da!

TASUKI: Although who'd want the piece a' junk's #$*#&$(#&in beyond me! I mean, it's &#@(*&#*$(*# ancient!

CHICHIRI: ::glares at Tasuki:: >a-HEM< No Da!

TASUKI: All right, all right! ::starts the music box and holds it up:: Showing over (!@&(*&(#*@&#@&in here!

CHICHIRI: Arigatou. May I start at twenty yen no da? Fifteen? Fifteen I am bid no da.

(The bidding continues. TAMAHOME eventually buys the box for thirty yen)

CHICHIRI: Sold for thirty yen to the Vicomte de Chagny! Arigatou gonzimasu no da!

TASUKI: ::handing the box to TAMAHOME:: I can't believe ya' bought that worthless piece a' @#*&@(*&#@(*!!!

TAMAHOME: I can't believe you're a porter. We're even! ::quietly, half to himself, half to the box:: At least I got you back...

CHICHIRI: Lot 666, then, no da: a chandelier in pieces no da. Some of you may recall the strange affair of the Seiryu of the Opera: a mystery never fully explained no da!

TASUKI: ::under his breath:: Ah jes' hurry it up will ya'! If I don't get home *(@#&@(* quick, Koji'll start the raid without me!

CHICHIRI: We are told that this is the very chandelier which figures in the famous disaster no da!

TASUKI: ::under his breath:: If ya' don't (@#*&@(*#in hurry up, it'll figure in another one!

CHICHIRI: Our workshops have fixed it up so it'll work with the new electric lights.....

(From off stage)

NYAN-NYANS: Naosu! Naosu! We Fix! We.......

TASUKI:/ ::bringing out fan:: LEKKA SHIEN!!

NYAN-NYANS: AAAIIIIIIEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

CHICHIRI: ::sweatdrops:: Er, perhaps we could see what it looks like no da?

TASUKI: No @#*(@(*#in problem!

(TASUKI turns on the chandelier. There's an enormous flash and the OVERATURE begins. During the OVERATURE the opera house is restored to it's former glory)


* * * * * * * * * * * *

ARASHI: ::evil grin:: It has begun.........!

TASUKI: ::eyeing the MUSIC BOX:: Oi Obake-chan, why'd you buy that piece o' *#@(*#)@($* anyway?

TAMAHOME: ::also eyeing the box:: Eh, I dunno, ask him. ::points at ARASHI:

CHICHIRI: Ahhh, I think it's CUTE no da!

TAMANEKO: ::still on the MUSIC BOX, sweatdropping:: Niao!

TASUKI: ::to ARASHI:: Oi, why DID he buy that (@*#)@(*$ thing???

ARASHI: ::still looking slightly psycho:: All things shall be revealed in their time.....

(Everyone eyes him in a worried manner)
