Simple is the room to which I stand within now. It is octangular and dark, the only sources of light coming from between the cracked pieces of glass. The pale light is that of the moon and drowns out the sounds of the incessant rioters here to tear apart my soul. I care not for them, my rose has left me, abandoned me for an eerily girly Viscount. Yet, as I am drowning in this insufferable Hell I can here her crying. I rise, weakly, my body stumbling slightly from the blood loss. Breaking the mirrors and passing through into this world was all I could do after she left. Now though, I can hear her voice…
'Why do you leave me here…standing in the dark…?'
I'll never leave her! Never, even after her mistake! She is but a mortal, a gentle dove whose sheltered heart hath been protected far too long. She knows no better, then or now! A few more bumbling steps and I can see her on the other side of the glass. She's bleeding profusely from her wrists, but a smile is upon her face as she creatively writes with her own blood the lyrics to my song. I attempt to run faster, she's going to die if she keeps bleeding like that. No matter where she is she mustn't die, whether I am with her or not. Yet she is reaching for something that is making me more fearful. I can see from here, the pale steel and twisted metal that clicks and hisses like a viper as she cocks it and sluggishly brings it to her temple. No! I cannot allow this! Not my angel, not my beloved! But I am too slow, I feel as though I am running through water, she's already smirking and mouthing goodbye. Then it's over, a single explosive scream ringing about the room as her blood flies and her eyes open in deadly shock. She sinks forward and smacks spread-eagle onto her dresser, her blank eyes staring blindly into her mirror. She's whispering weakly now, she needs me! I am almost there. A run faster and cry her name,
'Christine! Christine! Wait! Please, Wait!'
She suddenly stalls and faces me, her beautiful luscious curls fanning out around her face.
'Come Erik, you're running late!'
She's teasing me again, and I smile wistfully as I take her hand.
'Late or not, I will always follow you into the dark.'
Slowly the darkness encompasses us and we kiss softly before we let our souls drift towards the afterlife.
End.
A/N: Kind of a sequel to Post Mortem, Erik's dead and finds Christine and together they leave. Semi-Happy ending in my opinion…anyway, please review! Ravenseye131
