It was opening night of "Swan Lake"
Sofia was getting ready in her dressing room.
Her solo was in the second division, and the sounds of the orchestra flooded through the stage.
She heard the door creak open, and just thought that the directors were making sure everyone was getting ready.
The door opened a little more, and Sofia set her blush brush down to lean over and see who was there.

But when she looked in the mirror, behind her, she saw Anastasia.
The orchestra sounded, and the dancers started dancing to the opening scene.

The mirror was spotted with lip stick spelling out: the haunting.

When there was intermission, the only sound in the air was the laughs of the ghost of the girl

That didn't get the part.
