Behind him, the band was warming up. He would join them in a little bit, but he had something to do first. The club had to be opened to the public for the day, after all.
Fred opened the front doors and flipped the sign over to "Open". He also switched on the neon "Open" light, just in case it was going to be darker than usual soon. The doors were then unlocked from the outside and the handles wiped down with a rag.
Club Robin was open for business.

When her sister demanded her not to go. She went anyway to the little club. She really wanted to sing and this would be one way to live her dream no matter what.
She watched the man turn the open sign on and headed in.
"Hello? Sir? Is this where the audition is?"

Fred looked over at the woman. She looked... new-ish. Why hadn't he seen her before now? Anyway, she seemed a little desperate, for some reason...
"Uh... yeah," the confused man replied. "We hold auditions here. Why, are you looking for a job here?"

Madison moved in closer in "Yeah, I want to sing. I love music and it's always been a passion of mine." She said.
"My name is Madison Mills." She held out a hand to shake his. "Pleasure to meet you."
She hopped that being the Mayor's little sister wouldn't be a problem. She really wanted this.

"Well, we here at Club Robin have an interest in all things music," Fred responded. "I'm sure you'll fit right in."
Then he did a mental double-take at the name. Mills? As in, in relation to Mayor Regina and son Henry Mills? Was she serious? And he was already on the Mayor's bad list already... Still, Madison seemed to be nice enough. He'll give her a chance.
"Fred Mausworth," he introduced himself, shaking her hand. "Pleasure to meet ya as well. Won't you come in?" he asked, motioning to inside the building.

Madison smiled and followed him in."I can sing whatever. But I have a song in mind if you would like it. I brought the music too." She said showing him the song.
"I've been singing in school plays and concerts all my life. It's time to go somewhere with it."

Now there was something you didn't see every day! She was actually prepared to audition with a song! Pre-recorded, too. "Very nice," Fred complimented. "All right, let me get this cued up on the sound system. Uh, what key?"

"I believe A." She said as she walked up onto the stage. She pulled out the music and handed it to him. "The music is right there." She said. The song she picked was Thoughtless by Korn.

The band stared in confusion at the woman on stage. "C'mon, fellas," Cliff spoke up to the other males, "let's clear off."
"She's auditioning for us, guys," Fred said as the band cleared off the stage. "And she's really wanting to do this." The CD was placed in the system and cued to the right track. "Okay, Maddie, whenever you're ready."

Madison got on the stage waiting for the music to start. Usually for this she did play the piano, but her nerves were shot. She started singing the song which was dark and very deep. Though it was easy to tell she could sing anything. Not to long almost 5 minutes she finished the song.

Her audience was silent, listening as Madison sang. Sure, the music wasn't exactly what they played in the club, but a few of the audience members knew talent when they saw it.
Ralph wasn't one of those people, but he made his opinion vocalized once the song was over. "Damn."
The audience clapped. "Very nice!" Fred complimented. "Ya got a real talent, Maddie."

Madison smiled big when they said she was good. She stood there not sure what else to do. She gave a bow and walked down from the stage. "Would you believe this is my first time on stage?" She asked Fred.

"Lots of practice in front of the mirror, then?" Fred asked, handing Madison's CD back to her. "Well, you did great. I think you won over with all of us. Especially Ralph," he added in a lower voice with a chuckle. "Anyway, Cliff and I will talk about it, but you pretty much got the job!"

Madison was so happy she put her arms around Fred and hugged him "You made me so happy. Is it ok if I get a tour of the club?" She asked. "My first time here and not the last. And I promise I don't have alot of dark songs. I can sing anything you want."

Fred was a little surprised by the hug, but returned it nonetheless. "Hey, versatility is great," he said. "And right this way. Of course you know where the stage and seating areas are. That over there," he pointed to the bar, "is the 'juice' bar, where you have to have an ID to get the 'juice'. Otherwise, anyone's welcome here. Come on," he motioned for her to follow him. "I'll show you backstage."
