Izzy burst in. She too had a letter, which has cheered her no more than the others. "Where is he!?" Izzy said angrily. "Ah, welcome back!" Tommy said smiling. "Your precious patron, where is he?" She asked. "What is it now?" Vince asked looking annoyed. "I have your letter, a letter which I rather resent!" She said crossing her arms. "And did you send it?" Mick asked looking at Vince. "Of course not!" He said.

"As if he would!" Tommy scoffed. "You didn't send it?" She asked for confirmation. "Of course not!" Vince said. "What's going on?" Mick asked looking concerned and confused. "You dare to tell me that this is not the letter you sent!?" Izzy said waving it in Vince's face. "And what is it that I'm meant to have sent?" He asked looking confused as he took the letter and read it.

"Your days at the Opera Populaire are numbered. Nikki Sixx will be singing on your behalf tonight. Be prepared for a great misfortune, should you attempt to take her place." He read as Mick and Tommy were beginning to tire of the intrigue. "Far too many notes for my taste!" Mick said crossing his arms. "And most of them about Nikki! All we've heard since we came is Miss Sixx's name!" Tommy said crossing his arms as Slash appeared with Steven.

"Miss Sixx has returned." Slash said. "I trust her midnight oil is well and truly burned" Mick said drily. "Where precisely is she now?" Tommy asked looking at them. "I thought it best she went home..." Slash said looking at them. "She needed rest." Steven butted in. "May I see her?" Vince asked looking at them. "No, monsieur. She will see no-one" Slash said sternly. "Will she sing? Will she sing?" Izzy asked looking at them.

"Here, I have a note" Slash said handing them it. "Let me see it!" Vince, Tommy and Izzy said at the same time. "Please!" Mick said snatching it. "Gentlemen, I have now sent you several notes of the most amiable nature, detailing how my theatre is to be run. You have not followed my instructions. I shall give you one last chance" Mick read as Axl's voice slowly took over. "Nikki Sixx has returned to you, and I am anxious her career should progress. In the new production of "Il Muto", you will therefore cast Izzy as the Pageboy, and put Miss Sixx in the role of Countess. The role which Miss Sixx plays calls for charm and appeal. The role of the Pageboy is silent which makes my casting, in a word ideal. I shall watch the performance from my normal seat in Box Five, which will be kept empty for me. Should these commands be ignored, a disaster beyond your imagination will occur." 

"I remain, gentlemen, your obedient servant OG" Mick took over as he finished reading the letter. "Nikki!" Izzy said annoyed. "Whatever next?" Tommy asked. "It's all a ploy to help Nikki!" Izzy said stomping her feet. "This is insane" Mick said shaking his head. "I know who sent this! The Vicomte, her lover!" Izzy said pointing a finger at Vince. "Indeed? Can you believe this?" Vince said to the others. "Signora!" Tommy said in protest to Izzy. "O traditori!" Izzy said to herself and to the managers. "This is a joke!" Mick said to Izzy. 

"This changes nothing!" Tommy said crossing his arms. "O mentitori!" Izzy said with a sigh. "Signora!" Mick said trying to get her attention. "You are our star!" Tommy said with a smile. "And always will be!" Mick added. "Signora..." Tommy said as Mick added, "The man is mad!" "We don't take orders!" Tommy said crossing his arms. "Miss Sixx will be playing the Pageboy, the silent role" Mick said looking at everyone.

"Izzy will be playing the lead!" Tommy and Mick said together. "It's useless trying to appease me! You're only saying this to please me! Signori, e vero? Non, non, non voglio udire ! Lasciatemi morire! O padre mio! Dio!" Izzy said dramatically as she pretended to faint. "Who scorn his word, beware to those..." Slash said looking at them. "You have reviled me!" Izzy said to Mick and Tommy. "The angel sees, the angel knows..." Slash said wearily. "Why did Nikki fly to my arms?" Vince asked curiously. 

"You have rebuked me!" Izzy said dramatically. "Signora, pardon us..." Mick and Tommy said. "You have replaced me!" Izzy said continuing to be dramatic. "Please signora, we beseech you!" Mick and Tommy said looking at her. "This hour shall see your darkest fears..." Slash said shaking his head. "I must see her" Steven and Vince said in unison. "Abbandonata! Deseredata! 0, sventurata!" Izzy said dramatically as she sighed ever so dramatically, placing a hand on her forehead. 

"The angel knows, the angel hears..." Slash said as Vince butted in, "Where did she go?" "Abbandonata! Disgraziata!" Izzy said continuing her dramatic act. "Signora, sing for us!" Mick said as Tommy added, "Don't be a martyr!" "What new surprises lie in store?" Vince, Slash and Steven sang in a concerned tone. "Our star!" Tommy and Mick said in unison. "Non vo' cantar!" Izzy said in a dramatic tone. "Your public needs you!" Tommy said approaching Izzy. "We need you, too!" Mick said smiling.

"Would you not rather have your precious little ingenue?" Izzy said crossing her arms. "Signora, no!" Tommy said as Mick butted in, "The world wants you!" "Prima donna first lady of the stage!" Mick said as he was begging her now. "Your devotees are on their knees to implore you!" Tommy said butting in as they were begging Izzy now. "Can you bow out when they're shouting your name?" Tommy said looking at her. "Think of how they all adore you!" Mick said smiling. "Prima donna, enchant us once again!" They said in unison.

"Think of your muse" Tommy said as Mick butted in, "And of the queues round the theatre!" "Can you deny us the triumph in store? Sing, prima donna, once more!" They said together as Izzy registered her acceptance. "Nikki spoke of an angel.." Vince said to himself. "Prima donna your song shall live again!" Izzy said triumphantly. "Think of your public!" Mick said to Izzy. "You took a snub but there's a public who needs you!" Izzy said smiling. "She has heard the voice of the angel of music..." Slash said looking concerned.

"Those who hear your voice liken you to an angel!" Mick said smiling. "Think of their cry of undying support!" Izzy said smiling. "Is this her angel of music?" Vince sang looking at Slash. "We get our opera" Tommy said looking at Mick. "She gets her limelight!" He said smiling. "Follow where your limelight leads you!" Izzy said triumphantly. "Is this ghost an angel or a madman?" Steven sang confused. "Angel or madman?" Vince sang back. "Leading ladies are a trial!" Mick said smiling.

"Heaven help you, those who doubt..." Slash said lowering his head. "You'll sing again and to unending ovation!" Izzy said triumphantly. "Orders! Warnings! Lunatic demands!" Vince said angrily. "This miscasting will invite damnation..." Slash said with a heavy sigh. "Tears, oaths. Lunatic demands" Mick said as Tommy butted in, "Are regular occurrences!" "Bliss or damnation? Which has claimed her?" Steven said looking at Vince. "Think how you'll shine in that final encore! Sing, prima donna, once more!" Izzy said dancing around happily.

"Oh fools, to have flouted his warnings!" Slash yelled angrily. "Surely for her sake.." Vince said shaking his head. "Surely he'll strike back.." Steven said wearily. "Surely there'll be further scenes!" Mick said as Tommy butted in, "Worse than this!" "Think, before these demands are rejected!" Slash yelled waving his finger in their face. "I must see these demands are rejected!" Vince said with a sigh. 

"If his threats and demands are rejected!" Steven said looking at Slash. "Who'd believe a diva happy to relieve a chorus girl, who's gone and slept with the patron?" Mick said looking at them. "Vince and the soubrette, entwined in love's duet! Although he may demur, he must have been with her!" Tommy said looking at Mick. "Nikki must be protected!" Steven and Vince said together. "Oh, fortunata! Non ancor abbandonta!" Izzy said. "You'd never get away with all this in a play, but if it's loudly sung and in a foreign tongue" Mick started as Tommy finished, "It's just the sort of story audiences adore, in fact a perfect opera!" 

"His game is over!" Vince said. "This is a game you cannot hope to win!" Slash said wearily. "And in box five a new game will begin..." Vince said angrily. "For, if his curse is on this opera-" Slash said. "But if his curse is on this opera..." Steven said shaking her head. "Prima donna the world is at your feet!" Tommy said with Mick finishing his thought, "A nation waits, and how it hates to be cheated!" "The stress that falls upon a famous prima donna! Terrible diseases, coughs and colds and sneezes! Still, the dryest throat will reach the highest note, in search of perfect opera!" Izzy said with a dramatic tone.

"Then I fear the outcome..." Slash and Steven said looking at each other. "Nikki plays the pageboy, Izzy plays the countess..." Vince said defeated. "Should you dare to" Slash started as Steven finished, "When you once again..." "Light up the stage with that age old rapport! Sing, prima donna, once more!" They said together. "So, it is to be war between us! If these demands are not met, a disaster beyond your imagination will occur!" Axl's voice said from afar. "Once more!" They sang all together.
