~*~ Recap; "So that is where Christian is. He found your mother. Well it will be best to kill two birds with one stone. Don't worry Alexandria you will see your mother soon enough." ~*~
Satine sat staring into the fire she was obviously far away thinking about something that Christian couldn't quite pin point. Her eyes were so mixed up with emotions that Christian couldn't decipher one from the other. He sighed and sat back in his chair and closed his eyes massaging his forehead. It was the same silence that fell over them as always, the only times they really talked was when Alexandria was about and even then it was petty small talk just for the sake of Alexandria. Marie was out in the market shopping and wouldn't be back until late evening as she was meant to be visiting a friend of hers and Satine told her not to worry about getting back any time early as she could handle everything.
The sudden knock on the door caused both Satine and Christian to jump and look at one another. Satine stood and walked over to the hallway, Christian heard her unlocking the door and then there was a loud gasp and a dull thud. Christian got up to see in the doorway the Duke gripping Alexandria by both the shoulders tightly, he could see that she had been crying. In the background the henchman was gripping onto Satine who was trying to break free of his grasp.
"What a pleasure to see you Christian my dear boy. My you are looking well. How kind of you to lead me here to my darling Satine and this delightful child. Now I advise you sit and don't try anything or little Alexandria here may get hurt!"
Christian glared at the Duke as he slowly sat, he watched the Duke shove Alexandria unceremoniously in the direction of a stool in the corner and smile as he heard her cry out in fear. Satine screamed and struggled more reaching for her daughter as tears streaked down her cheeks.
"What do you want Duke?"
"Is it not at all obvious Christian? I want Satine and my future daughter Alexandria to be given to you and me to take the blame for their disappearance. It is just a pity that you will not be able to defend yourself."
Christian looked at the Duke puzzled and watched in horror as he pulled a gun from under his waistcoat. He pointed the gun first at Christian and then at Alexandria.
"Or perhaps I will kill the girl. Maybe that will change your mind Satine my dear."
"Over my dead body Duke! You will leave my daughter out of this!!"
The Duke laughed as Satine kicked and hit the henchman who did nothing but laugh. Satine sighed in defeat before looking at Christian who sat there looking calm and relaxed. Slowly Christian got up and walked over to Alexandria and lifted her from the floor and into the safety of his arms. The Duke watched disgusted and irritated and lifted the gun up to point it at Christian.
"What do you think you are doing Christian? Trying to be a hero are we? Well now is that not so typical. The sad little boy has come back to find his love is not dead and now wants to prove his love."
"Duke. why not just kill me. Its what you really want is it not?"
The Duke laughed and nodded as he walked over to stand beside Satine. He leant up and stroked her cheek.
"But I also want this beauty. She is just so special that I feel I should have her all to myself!"
It was then that Satine took the opportunity to retaliate and kick the Duke's hand. The years in the Moulin Rouge and learning how to can can and kick the highest possible finally became useful as the gun went flying through the year and landed beside the fire. The Duke watched her in disbelief and then raised his hand and slapped her. Satine screamed and glared at the Duke. Alexandria took this opportunity to push herself away from Christian and quickly ran over to he where the gun laid and picked it up. Slowly she lifted it up to look at it better and the turned to face the Duke and her Mother.
"Alexandria!!"
"Well I see you have some of Christians spirit in you, perhaps he has been around longer than I first thought. Now little one be a good little girl and give me the gun and your mother will not be harmed. Or perhaps that's what you want to happen, if I were you little one I would give the gun and no body will get hurt especially you!"
Alexandria shook her head and looked at Christian before tossing the gun to him and running behind a chair. Satine relaxed when she saw Alexandria had given the gun over to Christian but began to panic when she felt the blade of a hidden knife press against her back. The henchman smiled as if he was doing nothing but secretly she knew that if Christian did anything she would be in big trouble. Christian held the gun up and smiled at the Duke.
"Now we can finally sort this out Duke. Equally. Now let Satine go and I will not be forced to shoot any of you."
The Duke looked at the Henchman and the two passed knowing smiles before the Duke returned his gaze to Christian.
"Well Christian it looks like you have the upper hand. Yes, you can have your pathetic little woman. Let her go."
The henchman yanked Satine back against the blade and twisted it before shoving her forward with a loud scream. She slumped forward and landed on the floor with a loud thud. Christian ran to her and knelt besides her gently stroking her hair forgetting the gun.
"Satine! Oh Satine please open your eyes."
The Duke lunged forward kicking Christian backwards and grabbing the gun he stood up and laughed. Alexandria stayed hidden behind the chair out of fear and began to quietly cry. The Duke pointed the barrel of the gun at Christian and smiled.
"I do believe that this is goodbye Christian. You can have the wench. I couldn't care less now but at least you wont be able to share your life with her."
Alexandria watched the scene unfold as the Duke began to pull the trigger on the gun.
