A/n: Well,this one took a bit longer than I thought it would o.o; ^_^ Oh well! Everyone was happy with the last chapter...excepting for one thing. *Eyeballs the person who Talon is codenamed* You will be Osiris when I tell you you can be so :p
^_^ Anyhow! Next song! Oh..and part of this 'mystery' is revealed..*cackle* ...And I still don't own anything...
****************
Lark:*runs up to the stage,shaking faintly* Where is she?!
Isis: *staring at the stage then over at Talon then back at Lark* I....I don't know....
Daniel: Hey? Where'd Maddiun go?
Lark: *twitches*...I'll kill him..
Lythos & Scythe: *run up to restrain Lark*
Scythe: Calm down man,she'll be f-*freezes,looking down into the hole* Tifa!
*Tifa lies beneath a big weight,smashed to itty bitty bitsies,a very faint snicker is heard from far off*
Meg: *runs up from backstage,where she'd been helping L.M do the choreography* There's another phantom! And he's here!
Erik: *frowns from the audience and slowly walks toward the stage. When he gets there,he looks down at the crushed person* Ha...I'd have more imagination than -that-...
Christine: *realizing Raoul is still on top of her*um...Raoul..?
Raoul: Muffin?
Christine: Could...you move?
Raoul: ...Why?
Christine: Because this looks... ....nevermind...Erik,help?
Erik: *walks over and helps her up as Nadir walks out with a little notepad in hand*
Nadir: Alright,Gabe,Maddiun,and L.M are missing,and Tifa is dead. Correct?
All: *nod slowly*
Nadir: *squeaks and jumps in the air* Yippy skippy! I get to solve a mystery! *runs off*
Erik: ....and someone fed Nadir cocaine apparently,too...
All others: *nod once again,very slowly*
Talon: Are we all just going to stand here,or are we going to try to find L.M?
Gabe: *walks out from the backstage area* Did I miss something? What about L.M?
Talon: *points at the hole in stage*
Gabe: *looks down it*...Whoever did that did some damn nice work...
Isis: Gabe.
Gabe: Right. Back to L.M...
****************
L.M: *stands up,wincing as her leg pops softly* Ow,dammit. Where -am- I?
Maddiun: *from her left* I don't know where we are...
L.M: *blinks and looks over at him then yelps..then glares somewhat* You know,just because we're in a Phan Phic doesn't mean you get to be Erik's twin.
Maddiun: *glares back at her* I just saved you from getting smashed through the stage. I'd think you'd be happy.
L.M: *tries to take a step back...but falls and hits the ground* What d'you mean 'smashed through the stage'?
Maddiun: *sighs and crosses his arms,moving over and picking her up,searching for somewhere to lay her* I was backstage,watching you and Tifa,and I saw someone holding a very large weight over their head,aimed toward you two. So I ran out and grabbed you...unfortunatly...we fell back about three floors down through a hollowed out wall...
L.M: *blinks,very slowly then narrows her eyes at him* You're confusing me. ...but thank you,I think?
Maddiun: *nods,putting her on a plank of plywood* Welcome..Now what to do?
L.M: *grins* I have an idea...
Maddiun: Oh God...
****************
Lark: *stands in the room he's been locked in....which is completely trashed by now,the door is half kicked in,and,unfortunatly,the windows have bars over them* Dammit...It's not as if it'll hurt....I'll make it -really- fast..
Scythe: *from outside* Hence why you're in there.
Lark: *growls and sits on the half ripped apart mattress*
L.M: *screams* LARK?!
Lark: *jumps straight up in the air*L.M!!!! *claws at the wall* Keep yelling!!!!
L.M: *silent*
*Back out on stage...*
Nadir: *is questioning Isis and Talon* So you were just singing..you didn't notice anything unusual ma'm?
Isis: Other than someone getting smashed through the floor? Nope. Not a damn thing. *glare,twitch*
Nadir: *pauses*...*looks at Talon* Did -you- notice anything sir?
Talon: *just -glares- at him*
Nadir: *erks* Okay. Thank you. *scurries off*
Dash: *is sitting,stunned,in the audience*...I think I feel ill....
Daniel: *having gone back to the audience* I'm worse...my best friend is off somewhere,maybe dead,with a girl who continually upsets him,along with a guy pledging to rip his head off.
Dash: *looks over at him* You win.
Daniel: *blinks* Can I have a plushie? A teddy bear?
Dash: ....No.
Daniel: ....Why?
Lythos: Because he doesn't have one,dammit. Now get UP here.
Daniel: *sighs* Okies...*stands up and heads back to the stage.*
Gabe: *has taken his place back in the balcony* I feel bored...I feel -very- bored....
Ayesha: *walks up,rubbing against him with a loud,long purr*
Gabe: Aw...*picks her up and gently scratches her ears* How's the kitty doing?
Ayesha: Mew.
Gabe: Aww!! *pets her more and cuddles her*
Isis: *seeing this from the stage,sweatdrops*
Gabe: *looks down and eyes Isis* What?
Isis: ...Notthhhhhhhhinnnnngggg.....
Christine: *looking around quietly*...has anyone seen Piangi or Carlotta?
Raoul: Not since we got here....
L.M: *comes across on a walkie talkie by the sound/light board* Someone? Anyone?! HELLO?!
Raoul: *screams and runs over to grab it* L.M's possessing this device....thingermajig! Must kill it!
Isis,Talon,Lythos: NO!
Raoul: *smashes it*
Isis: You fuggin idiot!
Talon: *rubs his forehead* Ugh....
Lythos: *goes over and punches him dead in the jaw then picks the pieces up and looks at Talon* Well techy boy?
Talon: *looks at it then looks at Lythos,then back at it*...Give it here.
Lythos: *tosses the pieces to him,Talon and Isis head off to try to fix the thing*
Raoul: Tee hee....lookie at all the pwetty birdies...*falls over*
Gabe: *snickers from the balcony*
Meg: *looks down at Tifa*..Do we just leave her down there or..?
Lythos: *nods* Yep. Someone call up the Maintence crew to fix this. I'm gonna go talk to Lark.
Mme. Giry: *nods and walks off to do as she's told*
Lythos: *takes a wrong turn as he goes backstage and sees a table,that was a buffet,completely empty* What the hells?
Carlotta: *groans from under the table* Shouldn't've had that 20th giant chocolate chip cookie....
Lythos: *picks up the tablecloth to reveal Carlotta and Piangi,their stomachs buldged out,completely stuffed with food. Piangi has passed out*.....
Carlotta: *waves her pudgy little arm at him*...Hi........
Lythos: ....Hi. Get out on stage. Drag him along too. *walks away*
Carlotta: They want me to WALK?!
Piangi: *shakes and wakes up screaming* Cara,Cara! I had a nightmare!
Carlotta: *snuggles him as best she can* What was it?
Piangi: Y..you said we have to -walk- somewhere!
Carlotta: *shakes and sobs* It's true!!!
Piangi: NOOOOO!!!!
****************
Meg: *searching through L.M's dressing room with Christine* Hey! L.M left a list of what songs to do,when,and who to do them! The show can go on!
Christine: *looks over at her*...Burn it?
Meg: *nods* Agreed.
*Meg tries to set it on fire with a few matches from our favorite pyromaniac of an authoress' drawer...until she notices the flame retardant label on the back of the lamination*
Christine & Meg: ......
Raoul: .....What's that sound?
*Out on stage*
Mme Giry: *slams her cane down against the floor* 5,6,7,8! Andre! Music!
Andre: *covers his ears and pushes the play button with his toe*
*Back in L.M's dressing room as Miss Godawful herself,Brittany Spears,starts singing from the cd playing*
Christine: *giggling* Oops I did it again...This is fun! *bounces*
Meg: *shudders* She sings worse than Carlotta...
Raoul: *on the floor,hands over his ears,screaming like a banshee* Turn it off!!! TURN IT OFF!!!!! AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
Christine: *bouncing around like the braindead creature we all know she is* I'm not that innocent!!
Meg: Didn't fool me...Nope...
****
Lythos: So -THAT- is why you don't have to worry about Maddiun doing anything to L.M...*thought*'or vice versa.'
Lark: I'm giving you 3 seconds to get out of here before I maul you. 1..
Lythos: *sweatdrops* Erk.
Lark: 2.
Lythos: *runs out of the room*SHUT IT! SHUUUUUUUTTTT IIIITTT!!
Lark: 3! *lunges and hits the door solidly* OW!
Scythe: Hasn't anyone thought of bringing one of her dogs in to sniff her out?
Lythos: Wouldn't we have to go to her house?
Scythe: I thought I saw Desarin outside......
Lark: For God's sake! Go find him then!!!
Scythe: ...but he got me all muddy last time...
Lythos: *groans* Wimp..*heads outside*
****
L.M: Well...*eyeing the poor little walkie talkie that's just static* That didn't work..
Maddiun: How many ways is Lark going to kill me? Do you think?
L.M: Oh...I dunno...5..6...
****
A/n: More to come....ha! And there was singing in this one ^^!!
Next Chapter: You will find out who killed Tifa.
L.M and Maddiun shall escape from the cellars.
Someone else will die! Who will it be?! Be watching for another chapter soon! Review!
