[ She does not have her crystal ball today, but she is dressed very snappily. There is no change in her demeanor... in fact, she seems hardly upset or worried at all. ]
Achtung! Sonia and I have been working on a song that we'd like to perform from both for all of you and the audiences at home. It's a song from her own nation of Novoselic that will be accompanied on the piano by Miss Nevermind and backed by my vocals.
[ Every exciting trial should have a musical interlude, right?
Please forgive the inappropriate tone. Sonia is very into this idea, especially because she and Rapture had to move the piano into the drawing room themselves and it was really hard okay. She begins playing this patriotic song. ]
[ Rapture thinks it's worth it. In fact, she probably hasn't even gone to sleep. Between moving the piano, drinking, and preparing for the concert there is no need to because she's so pumped for this performance. It's going to blow everyone's minds and send her straight to the top!
With only the percussion beating in her mind this time, she waits for the correct moment to begin singing. Although, this time, it is absolutely flawless. There are no fumbles or incorrect pauses, she's remembered the entire song without issue.
The soul of her voice — neither overbearing or soft — falls harmoniously in tune with Sonia's playing. It's almost as if she's singing for someone else rather than the entire crowd before her or the silent audience hidden away somewhere. ]
A denia~l! [ She finishes the song repeating the phrase only three times, just as in rehearsal, but the final touch is the very last one: where her voice stretches out even longer, hitting the final note like a nail in the coffin. ]
[ She takes a bow, pleased with the outcome. Chances are most people will love to rain on this parade, but Rapture isn't the kind of person to let that get to her. She's a Stinger, not a Hologram. ]
Maybe it's meant to signify the rise of a great, powerful teenaged princess such as Sonia Nevermind herself. Perhaps she was already a well-revered princess in a past life and this song was created in her former name, meant to be performed here in this very mansion, at this very moment!
Perhaps you can form a diplomatic alliance with Sonia and Riot after this is all over, as well! Maybe The Stingers could write anthems for all lands that fall within such an alliance! [ She taps her chin thoughtfully. ] Hmm... how does "Season of May" work? Or "The May Flower"...?
Maybe she comes from a long line of vampires, always lusting for blood lest they destroy something in a frenzy!
[ It's enough to make Anastasia momentarily forget the stress and seriousness of the trial, at least. She'll hang on every word and every note, applauding loudly when they've finished. ]
[ Rapture takes a graceful bow, her ponytail fluttering beautifully behind her. ]
Thank you Grand Duchess. [ She stands up tall and with a smile on her lips. ] It is an honor being able to perform for you all! Sonia and I rehearsed until it was embedded into our souls.

[She can't believe how much some of these people can be heartless. And it's not even a good song.]

...so then Miss Sonia has a mosquito's libido? I still do not really understand the meaning behind these words.

Ah, no, it's... it's a patriotic song. From Novoselic.

Hoh? It is not a summoning chant for spirits?

Maybe there's a even secret vault where all nations keep anthem chants that raise up the dead and use them to attack those who wish to destroy them.
