Kekkonshiki!

Robin was walking down a narrow path. She had no idea where it was taking her or where she even was. All around her was covered by darkness. She was afraid to stray from the path, thinking the darkness would swallow her. But for some reason, she believed the path was getting her nowhere.

Where am I? She thought. She stepped off the path and she started to fall. She tried to reach onto it but it disappeared. She continued to fall until a new path formed under her feet. She heard something off in the distance. It was music. She started running down the path towards the sound. But as she did, she started moving slower and slower. The path began to shatter behind her. But that didn't quicken her pace anymore. As she began to reach the sound of the music, the floor collapsed beneath her. She could hear herself scream and she fell.

Robin shot straight up from her pillow. Her body was all sweaty and she was breathing hard. She looked around and saw no path. She was in Erik's room.

"Robin?" She jumped at the sound of Erik's voice next to her. "Is everything alright?"

"Yeah. Just a bad dream." Robin just realized that she came back with Erik last night. She lied back down and tried to sleep.

Robin was out in an open field of flowers. Strangely, they were all white flowers. Daisies, roses, tulips, etc. and there was no other color in the field but white. The sky was blue and had white puffy clouds. She didn't seem to sense any danger for the moment. So she knelt down and started picking some of the flowers.

"Wow, I can't believe there's so many flowers here." She said blissfully. She saw a dark figure on a hill.

Erik! She finished picking the flowers and started walking towards him. She held them behind her back. She blew on his neck and he started turning around. as he did, she moved behind him again.

"I brought you some flowers." She held them out to him. He began to turn around and her heart started beating fast. But as he faced her, it wasn't Erik's face. "Raoul?"

"Hello, Little Robin." She dropped the flowers and they turned to dust.

"No! Why are you here?" He lightly lifted her chin till she was completely looking at him.

"Because, I brought you here." She started to sweat as the heat around her got higher. The flowers started to whither away and the sky turned red with black clouds. "We are engaged, remember?"

"NO!" She looked again and she was back on the dark path. Raoul was nowhere in sight, but the sky above her was still a blood red with black clouds. She started running on the path wishing it would lead her somewhere safe. But as she continued to run, the path seemed then the ground gave way under her letting her fall.

When Robin woke up, she was on the floor. Her face was pressed against the carpet and her body was still partly attached to the bed.

"Bad dream again?" Erik asked.

"Yeah." She said getting up from the floor. "I don't get it. Why am I getting all these bad dreams like this?"

"I don't know. Could it have something to do with yesterday?" She sighed.

"Maybe. Besides..."

"I hate you!"

"I can't believe I said those words!" She shouted. "I need soap!"

"Why?"

"I need to wash out those words from my mouth!" She ran out the door.

"She's back to normal." He said. He looked over at the night stand and saw a Phantom clock staring back at him.

"Wait! I need to go back home for a second!" Robin said.

"Why do you need to go back?" Erik asked hearing the police walking around downstairs.

"I need to get my stuff." She answered. "If I'm gonna live with you, I want to bring my treasures with me." He smiled.

"I guess you can go back for a minute." As the ring shone brighter, they were finally off.

"I had no idea that she had such things in her world. Especially of me."

Robin finished rubbing a bar of soap on her tongue. Now she had to get rid of the taste of soap. She started rubbing off the soap but was only making it worse on herself. So she grabbed a scrub brush and started scrubbing it off. After a few minutes, it was gone.

"Soap really tastes bad." She said to herself. She looked up at the mirror and just stared at her reflection.

Why was I having those dreams? She wondered. Is something going to happen? Are they a bad omen for our love? Or, will it be even worse? She felt shivers go up and down her spine twice before she could even think of anything else.

The next morning, Robin was having a hard time waking up, as usual. Those nightmares kept her from sleeping half the night so she was exhausted. But she couldn't stay asleep since the sun was in her face. She got out of bed and noticed Erik was already gone. She looked around the room and pulled her DVD player out from under her pillow and plugged it into a solar battery she made in her advanced chemistry class, though she was supposed to make a solar battery for a light bulb. She opened the curtain a little bit to let the light onto the pannel and the player turned on. She put on her headset and popped in a DVD she made with her friends. It was a remake of the Phantom of the Opera. she went to the blooper reel first since she enjoyed that the most.

"I am your angel of music. Come to me angel of music." Her friend who had a small crush on her in middle school played the Phantom, but did a good job.

"OKAY!" Robin runs up to the mirror and just hits the glass then falls over.

"Robin's out cold again." Sarah said and the scene ended.

"Take three!"

"Raoul, I'm afraid that I can't go with you." Robin said innocently.

"Why is this?" Another one of her friends, as Raoul, said.

"I'm in love... with someone else." Her friend as Erik jumped out.

"In your face!" Robin hit his head.

"You're not in this scene dumbass!" She chased him off the set and everywhere she could.

"Where in the world have you been hiding?" Sarah sang as she played her part.

"Right here." Robin said.

"Robin!"

"Sorry."

Robin was enjoying watching all the mess ups she and her friends had making the movie. As they ended, she watched the trailer to the movie they randomly made.

"You have heard of the Phantom of the Opera... but not like this."

(Masquerade plays and random clips start showing)

"Raoul...- I'm in love... with someone else."

"What?" More clips started to play until the screen turned black and white writing across saying "A New Way of Looking film..." then the screen was black again then said "The NEW Phantom of the Opera".

The trailer ended and she pressed play. She made this movie with her friends in her junior year when she joined the video club. She always wanted to make her own version of her favorite play for the longest time.

"No Raoul. The angel of music is very strict." Robin said in her Christine character.

"I'll be back in five minutes Little Lottie." Raoul (her friend as Raoul) walked out the door. Robin ran after him but stopped.

"Things have changed." She said. She closed the door and locked it.

"Insolent boy! This slave of fashion, basking in your glory. Ignorant fool, this brave young suitor, Sharing in my triumph!"

Yeah, he's a real jerk. Robin thought. This was actually the first time she's seen the movie they made since her friends never let her see it. She always complained and started whining, but they told her no. She was happy when they finally gave her a copy. As she continued to watch, she noticed how it could have been between Erik and Christine. But she knew the past shouldn't be altered to her will. Not only would she lose him, but Christine would be with him and Raoul would probably be the one running around in a jealous rage. It was finally getting to the good part. Christine would tell Raoul of her love.

"Raoul, I'm sorry. I'm afraid I can't go with you."

"What? Why is this?"

"I'm in love... With someone else."

"I wish it could have ended like this." Robin said to herself. A pair of hands quickly covered her mouth from behind. She tried to scream but she couldn't.

"Calm down." Julie said trying to get her to stop.

"What the hell are you doing?" She almost shouted.

"We'll explain later." Sarah and Maria jumped out of nowhere and began to blindfold her and led her out of the room. Robin was really nervous about what they were doing.

Oh man. What are they doing? This is really bad, I just know it! They suddenly stopped somewhere. Since her eyes were covered, she really couldn't tell where they were.

"Hold still." Maria said as she started removing Robin's shirt.

"Erik better not be in here!" She shouted.

"Relax, he's not." Sarah said. They started pulling something over her head which almost made the blindfold come down. Maria quickly fixed it so she couldn't see.

"What are you guys up to?"

"It's a surprise." Julie said. She felt someone pulling at her hair. She couldn't tell what was happening to her at all. After a while, they started moving again. They took dozens of different ways and Robin nearly felt her head spin. They finally stopped again.

"Alright Robin, take it off." Robin removed her blindfold and found herself in a beautifully decorated room. It was just as large as any of the other rooms in the house. At the other end of the room, there was an alter and Erik was standing there in a new suit.

"What's the occasion?" She wondered. But when she looked down at herself, she was wearing a beautiful white dress.

"It's a surprise wedding for you two." Julie said. Robin was really taken back by this.

"A wedding?"

"We thought it would be fun to keep it a secret." Sarah handed her a bouquet of flowers and the girls began leading her to the alter (well, more like dragging her since she was too shocked to move). They brought her all the way up then stepped back. Robin looked up at Erik and started blushing.

"I'm just as surprised as you." He said and they both faced the alter. Lauren, one of the older girls, stood on the other side and held a bible in her hands.

"Let's begin."

Christine walked down the rocky road. The sun was high in the sky, but her heart was not in the light. The sin she committed could never be forgiven. To betray her teacher and take away the girl whom he loved and loved him in return. She dragged her feet along as her head just drooped in front of her. The trees that surrounded the road were very dense and was very peaceful.

"Please, I'm not asking for forgiveness." She said as if talking to someone. "I just want you to know I'm sorry for what I've done." She slowly passed the front gates to the familiar house that haunted her since that night. She was about to open them when she saw something in the far window. The window was full of bright lights and there were three visible figures. One was Lauren, then Erik, then...

It's her! She was surprised not only that she returned, but that she managed to recognize the 18 year old even with her shortened hair.

"I guess there's no need to worry." She slipped an envelope in between the two gates and started walking in the direction she came.

"And so, by the power invested in me, I pronounce you man and wife." Lauren said with the utmost confidence. "You may kiss your angel." Robin nearly started laughing. They turned to each other and kissed as passionately as they ever did before. All the girls started cheering. All that Robin ever wished had come true at last. Meeting Erik, falling for him, him falling for her, and finally marrying him. If this was ever a dream, she'd never want to wake up. But it was too real to be a dream.

"Monsieur, someone is outside." Maria said from the window. Erik walked over and looked outside. He saw as Christine disappeared behind the trees.

"Why was she here?" He wondered. But he put it out of his mind for now. He turned back to Robin and returned to her side.

"Would you call this a happy ending?" She asked.

"Maybe."

As Christine walked through the gates to the de Chagny mansion, she found Raoul standing in front of the doors, arms folded across his chest. Christine kept a straight face as she approached him.

"Where have you been?" He asked.

"I shouldn't have to tell you where I am at every moment." She said coldly. She still hasn't gotten over the betrayal at the party.

"You went to him, didn't you?" She stopped in her tracks.

"Robin came back." She said before walking into the house. He clenched his fists until they were about to explode.

"That girl... came back?!" Apparently, he overlooked a few things. "The next time I see that girl, I'll make her wish she never even heard of the Phantom of the Opera. As I believe, she still has her innocence. I'll just have to take that from her before him." He walked over to the stables and came out riding a white horse. He rode through the gates and down the rocky path towards Paris.

Hee hee hee, Evil Raoul. I made him into the devious person I wanted him to be! It's gonna get really crazy out there. Oh, if there's any Raoul supporters out there, you better be prepared for the dark side of this guy. He's turned into the villain of this story! lol. But will all go well? Putting that aside, ROBIN AND ERIK ARE MARRIED NOW! Damn she's lucky! So, I saw Across the Universe just a little while ago and it was really good. Lots of Beatles songs too. And just the right ones for the movie. I like Strawberry Fields. Or Yagai Ichigo as I say. I also read these really funny comics on deviant art called roommates. FANDOM! It has the Phantom of the Opera, Labyrinth, POTC, and Les Mis (along with other fandom goodness) in a dozen different little comics. It's funny and cute! I heart Erik and Jareth! Mostly Erik. So, I'm done here. I'm out!
