The Phantom of the Orchestra – Geronimo Stilton

This story is about a girl who is interested in music.

Once there was a girl named Violet. She was very addicted to phones. She was always using her phone doing something none of them knew.

One day Violet and her friends were watching a movie. Violet as usual was using her phone. In half way through the movie Violet got bored of using her phone and she slept of. When the movie was over suddenly Violet’s friends heard a ticking sound in Violet’s phone. Violet’s friends went and peeped into her phone and saw who sent the message. They heard that Violet has been selected for a music contest on the topic Romeo and Juliet held at London. Violet’s friends were overjoyed.

When Violet woke up she saw someone had kept a paper on the table in which something was written. Violet read the paper and followed its instructions. Finally the instructions led her to a room. Violet opened the door, she was shocked to see everyone with a board on their hand. The board had the word ‘Congratulations’. Her friends told everything they saw on Violet’s phone. Violet felt very excited. She wanted to spend time with her friends as she was going to leave the country and was going to miss her close friend.

But Violet’s friends were really busy whenever she called them to play. The day before Violet was about to leave, her friends came to her and said, “We couldn’t spend time with you as we were working on our school project and other school things as we have decided that we would accompany to London”.

Violet was really happy that she jumped with joy. The next day Violet and her friends left for London together. They were so eager to watch the contest of Romeo and Juliet. They all reached their destination. The next day Violet gave measurements for her dress and so did the other performers of Romeo and Juliet. On the day of the contest the inspector, Mr.Paul talk about the rules of the contest to the audience.

The contest was about to begin when suddenly one of the performers went to the inspector and told, “My dress is not fitting me”.

“What!”, screamed the inspector, “this is a disaster”

So many people reported these kinds of problems on that day. Mr. Paul went to Violet’s friends and told, “I thought you guys were really responsible. Go out and find what is going on”

Violet’s friends felt sad as they got scoldings from Mr. Paul. They went to Mr. Albert the tailor’s place. Violet’s friends went to Mr. Albert’s place and found a lady sitting in the reception.

All of Violet’s friends asked, “We want to meet Mr. Albert”. The lady said, “He is inside this room”, pointing to a room located beside her’s.

Violet’s friends thanked the lady and went inside the room. They saw Mr Albert sitting and working in a computer.

Mr Albert said, “Hello”.

Violet’s friends responded back saying hello. The girls narrated the whole story and why it was happening. Mr Albert checked in his computer and said Mr.Paul had sent two messages. First message had the information about the costumes. The second message had different information about the costumes.

” I believed the second message thinking that it is the correct information about the costumes”.

The girls thanked Mr. Albert for his kind information and set of for their hotel. When the girls were about start climbing the staircase, they noticed Mr.John who was also a tailor. But the girls didn’t know it was John’s twin brother that they saw. They also noticed that Mr John’s twin brother was wearing a watch. The girls continued climbing up the stairs. When the girls reached the end of the staircase they noticed the same person they saw down stairs. This time the girls observed he wasn’t wearing a watch.

”Something fishy going out here”, said one of the girls.

The girls then discussed among themselves and decided that they could find out the truth only when they see both the persons in a spot together. The girls told Violet and her friend Sarat everything.

‘This is the best time to find out the truth” said one of the girls. Violet said, “I will go call John alone. You guys go call the person you said who looked like John”.

The girls brought both the twin brothers together to a spot as both of them can see each other. They explained their situation to both the twin brother. Both of them started fighting by finger pointing each other.

The girls told Mr. Paul everything. Mr. Paul was really angry that he chased both the twin brothers from the hotel. The next day was the contest everything went perfectly. Violet performed really well that Mr. Paul said she could perform in another contest as well.

The girls had to leave home the next day. The next day when they were about to get boarded into the aeroplane they all gave a warm hug to Violet and returned back home.
