They lay backstage Satine lay limp in Christians arms, he is trying to wake her up as if she is sleeping when finally Harry comes up behind them and puts his hand on Christians shoulder and looks at him as if he should not be worrying. Looks at him as if she is alive but only passed out from sheer exhaustion. Christian looks down at Satine who raised her head and winked at him and then lay limp again.
Harry took Christine into Satine's dressing room and they laid her onto the couch. Harry closed the door clapped his hands twice then knocked on the door three times. Satine then lifted her head up and looked at Christian; he returned her look with a look of utter amazement and excitement.
"What? How? Is this...."Christian spat out, but was interrupted when Satine put her finger up to his mouth to quiet him. She smiled and wiped the sweat off her brow. Christian looked at her with a question in his eyes.
"Its all quite simple really Harry why don't you explain it I'm a bit tired from all this with the show and the death." She laughed a she finished speaking the words, sat down next to Christian and kissed him and wiped the remainder of the tears out of his eyes.
"Well you see Satine came to me and told me that the Duke had tried to hurt her, now no one hurts my little kitten so we plotted a plan to help you two stay together and the Duke leave and we would do it on opening night" Harry was trying to be very clear but for some reason there was still a look of amazement and wonder. "Christian she wanted you so she pretended to have a disease, the coughing of wine into a napkin took care of Marie and the doctor and the rest was done by my little pumpkins talent"
"So she's alive and well and we can stay here and live our lives happily together forever?" asked Christian with hope in his voice.
But when he finished Satine's smile turned into a frown and she said "No we can't we must leave it would be too dangerous to stay here, I will be taken out falsely to an undertaker we will leave for London from there the train tickets are already purchased. You are to go to your house and get everything you need to take with you and hurry meet me in the back alley behind the undertakers from there we will leave," She kissed Christian" now hurry my love".
About an hour later Christian was in the back lot with a trunk and a bag, when a strange figure came up behind him and said we must go quickly now. Christian did not know at first who it was but he looked into the strangers eyes and knew it was Satine. She pulled on his sleeve and hurried him she picked up her two suitcases. They ran to the train station taking back roads all the way. They ran and ran till they couldn't run anymore when they heard the whistle of the train and they were given a burst of energy. They made just in time for as they stepped onto the train it began to pull away. The went to their compartment and they settled themselves down and the began to talk. They talked about a lot of things like how happy they would be, what there would be for them in London.
The train pulled away into the sunset and a tear began to run down Satine's cheek.
"Whats wrong my love" asked Christian
"I'm going to miss that place and those people they were my family the were all I had but now its all over and I have you." The kissed and the train whistle blew into the sunset as they left for their new future and their forever.
