Chapter 1: "You built a what?"

"Erik is not a psycho killer that lives under the opera house! He is just a misunderstood man."

It was a normal fall day, quite warm but a slight breeze that changed direction every few secounds. Two 18 year olds sat on the steps of the school that they went to, the day had just ended and they where talking about their most favorite thing in the world; The Phantom of the Opera.

"Erica, are you mental? He kidnapped Christine and was going to force her to marry him if Raoul didn't save her!" the girl with her brown hair in a ponytail said.

"ERIK LET HER GO BECAUSE OF THE GOODNESS OF HIS HEART RIN! and besides you just love Raoul!" Erica shrieked.

Most people would stare at the strange girls. They where very different, Erica White was very short, around Five and a half feet tall. She had short golden hair with a little curl in it and icy blue eyes, she was a little on the heavy side but no one noticed because she was always hyper and moving around. Rin, whos name name really was Rina Crossgrove looked very plain next to her with her wispy brown hair that was falling out of her ponytail,her eyes matched the color of her hair. She was also small but still much taller then Erica. To put it simply, Rin looked like the basic next-door girl; a plain Jane. Rin didn't mind though. They both though, wore jeans and a black shirt that stated: I 3 POTO.

" His heart? Are you even sure that the monster has one?" Rin bitterly said.

" umm guys?" a voice said from behind them.

"Of course he has one! Otherwise Erik couldn't love Christine!" Erica prostested.

"Guys?" the voice said once more"

"He didn't love her! He was obessed wtih her!" Rin growled, clenching her fists.

"SHUT UP YOU TWO NITWITS!" the voice bellowed, they turned around finally to see who it was.

"oh hey little Lotte!" Erica squealed.

Lotte, their best friend and person they where ignoring during their fight scowled at them.

"How many time must I tell you to stop calling me 'Little Lotte'! I am six feet tall!"

Which was true, Lotte Silverman was six feet tall and was as skinny as a rail. Everything about her was mysterious and dark. She had long black hair that was very curly and had piercing bright green eyes that sometimes glowed when she was angery,which was often. She was sometimes bitter and rude, no one messed with her though because she was a genuis in many ways. No one knew how the three became best friends because of their differences.

"You know we will always call you little Lotte so suck it up!" Rin giggled making Lotte cross her arms and raise a eyebrow.

"You two are crazy." She muttered marking them grin even bigger. Erica and Rin looked at each other, nodded then bursted into song:

Little Lotte let her mind wander

Little Lotte thought: Am I fonder of dolls

or of goblins or shoes?

or of riddles of frocks

or of chocolates

No - what I love best, Lotte said,

is when I'm asleep in my bed

and the Angel of Music sings songs in my head!

Lotte winced, on the last note which was very flat. Why did they always sing this song around her? She had no idea where they got songs like this.

"You where very flat on the last note." She noted.

"Well we can't all be musical genuises like you Lotte." Erica grumbled.

"I am not a musical genuis!"

"you play the piano,flute,violin,clarinet,guitar, the drums and the organ. You compose your own pieces and are in the process of creating a opera. Face it, your a musical genuis." Rina smirkingly said.

"If I admit it will you two stop talking about your 'Ghost of the theater' thing?"

"First, it's Phantom of the Opera okay?" Erica said rolling her eyes when she saw Lotte's eyes glimmer at the word opera, Lotte loved opera. "And no we won't stop talking about our obession to POTO."

"POTO?"

"Shortened way of saying Phantom of the Opera." Rin quickly explained.

"oh"

"by the way how many times have tried explain POTO to you Lotte?"

"346 times. And every time I only get the words; Phantom, Raoul, Christine and music because every two secounds you sigh or swoon."

"but it hard to explain POTO to someone like you." Erica said and then dreamily sighed.

"See what I mean?" Lotte said staring pointedly at Rin.

"okay,okay I see what you mean." Rin admitted. "can we go to my house now? there is something I want to show you guys."

Erica and Lotte nodded and picked up their school bags, Lotte slung her violin over her shoulder. Out of all the instruments Lotte played, the violin was her favorite one.

Finally they arrived at Rins house. Her mom and dad where still at work so the girls often hung out here after school.

"It's upstairs" Rin said exictedly, climbing the stairs two at a time. Erica set down her bag and eagerly followed her. Lotte sighed and gently put down her bag, she still carried her violin up though.

Rina Crossgrove wanted to be a sciencetist ever since she was little. She loved to invent things, her room showed that. Her family was pretty rich so she got anything she needed for her expairiments. Her room had a small bed and a book shelf on everthing to know about sicence. inventions and expairments filled the room, many though didn't work out in the end.

"okay so Erica, remember last week about what we where talking about?" Rina said.

"That you had a crush on that guy in advanced tech and robotics?" Erica replied confused. This cause Lotte to smirk and darkly chuckle.

"NO! When we where talking about how we wish we could time-travel back in time to see the events of POTO take place."

"oh yah!"

"well I created..." Rin walked over to the table that had a sheet over it. She threw the cover off to reveal...

"OMOG! It's an iPad!" Erica squeaked.

"Omog?" Lotte said confused

"Oh-my-opera-ghost" Erica replied getting a scowl from Lotte.

"LISTEN! this isn't an iPad, well it was an ipad but I turned it.." Rin said turning it on "into a time machine."

"You built a what?" Lotte said mouth open

"OMOG! Now we can go see Erik!" Erica squealed and jummped up and down.

"Yes that is where we shall go to test it out."

"Umm don't you think we should tell people that you created a time machine?" Lotte said causing Rin and Erica to pounce on her, their efforts where futil for Lotte was easily able to side step them.

"NO! we can't tell otherwise, they would take it away!" Rina cried " and besides we don't know if it works yet."

"well then we have to try it out!" Erica exclaimed trying to grab it.

"Calm down! I already set the date,place and time in so we will come right in when Christine is about to sing 'Think of me' and replace Carlotta." At the name Carlotta both the Phans shivered. Lotte grew worried, this carlotta must be pretty scary for her to freak out Rin and Erica.

"alright, now everyone touch the iPad and we will be on our way to the Opera house!" Rin cheered. And then Lotte freaked.

"OH MY GOD! WE ARE GOING TO A OPERA HOUSE!" Lotte screamed.

"umm yah, the phantom of the opera lives in a opera house. why else would he have that title if he didn't live in an opera house." Erica said schocked.

"well how was I supposed to know that. I don't know anything about your obession." Lotte said putting her hands on her hips.

" we will go in a few minutes okay?" Rin whined, wanting to try it out. "but first we have to change outfits."

"You are never going to put me in a corset!" Lotte snarled stepping back.

"Don't worry! I got you a skirt instead." Rin said handing her a bundle of clothes and another to Erica.

In the end, Erica was in a rose pink dress and had a little matching hat with a feather on it, Rin in a mtaching one, but in brown and Lotte in a long black skirt and a white blouse with black musical notes sewn into it, topped of with a black cape.

"How come Lotte gets the cool phantom-like cape?" Erica whined, causing both Lotte and Rin to roll their eyes.

"Because to be frank, Black looks so much better on me Erica." Lotte smirked

"Ok,now that we are dressed lets go!" Rin picked up a large tote bag and walked over to the ipad-time machine-thing.

"Umm hate to be rude but whats in the sack?" Erica asked bouncing up and down.

"Extra clothes, money, books oh and of course all the sheet music to POTO, not that Erica or I will need it. We have it memorized, but still it's nice to have it around just in case." Erica nodded and Lotte sighed, her two friends had problems.

"Ready? Grab on!" Rin turned it on, it glowed and said in a robotic voice " Going to the opera House in 3.. 2.. 1.."

The three girls (and the bag and violin) grabbed onto the ipad of time travel (they didn't have a name for it yet). With a flash of green light they dissapeared.

A long,long,long time ago

In a opera house far,far,far away...

Our infamous trio landed.

"Ow!"

"Ow? thats all you can say Erica, Ow! We landed in the opera house that we Time Traveled to just so you could meet the man you have obessed over for the past 8 years and thats all you can say!" Rin hissed. They landed in the theater, right during the reharsal of Hannibal where Carlotta was about to get smashed by a backdrop and when CHristine shows the world how good she could sing.

"sorry! but I bruse so easily!" Erica whispered back. They started to bicker again for the 5th time today but Lotte wasn't listening. Lotte couldn't even speak. She was looking at the world most famous opera house when it was in all its glory. She hugged her violin case to her chest. Maybe they would let her play, since Rin and Erica wanted to be here for a while why couldn't she? She listened to the violins that where playing right now in the music, compared to her, they where weak. She could only hope... Lotte looked up in the rafters and frowned. Lotte saw a dark shadow, stepping into the light. It was a man dressed in all black, except he wore a white mask. How intersting Lotte thought. As if the man could hear her thoughts, he turned and stared right at her, his blue-grey eyes shimmering in the light. Lotte smiled and gave a little wave to him,he blinked and cocked his head at her,making her smile a little bigger. He then slowly waved back to her then whirled his black cape and vanished in the darkness. I must meet him some time. Lotte thought but her thoughts where peirced by a shrill,high pitched note that was flat.

"What the bloody hell was that!" Lotte exclaimed.

"Carlotta" her two friends simply replied.
