Chapter 11- Epster pulls an Eponine for Paul
A/N: I don't own Les Mis... or dnL (I meant to say that in the last chapter..). Here is where it gets sad... and nonsensical.
Epster and Paul both looked into the phone book. They had to find Montparnasse. They tried Worldpages.com and found a match. Jean and Erin Montparnasse. Epster wrote down the address and she and Paul got ready for the trip to their destination. Epster wore a white tank top, a brown skirt, a brown hat, and a large black belt. Paul laughed at the fact that she looked just like Eponine.
They finally arrived at the house. They had the family tree with them and noticed that Celeste's name was almost gone. Epster knocked on the door. A girl that was maybe a year older than her answered.
"Hi. Is... uh... Jean Montparnasse in?"
"Yes! One second."
The girl ran inside. Then a tall man with dark hair stood in the door way.
"Bonjour, mademoiselle-"
"'Parnasse!" Eponine hissed with Epster's mouth. Epster put her hand over her mouth.
"Hi, um, we were wondering if you could help us. You see-"Paul began.
"Hi. My name is Marc Joly. Look. Remember back in 1832 when you were taken by two girls? Well, you need to tell us where they are or where their machine is because if we don't go back in time then this man, Paul, will no longer exist and the girl who I am speaking through has the hots for him and wants to get in his pants and-" At this, Epster put her hand over her mouth.
"I remember it," Montparnasse said. "They crashed into a mountain. I can take you there, I think."
With that, Montparnasse led them to a car. He got into the driver's seat and Epster and Paul got in the back. The drive was a long one. Epster watched Paul become more pallid. She looked at the family tree. All that was left of Celeste Trucket was "ket". Epster grabbed his hand. Paul looked at her. For the first time in a long time, he looked frightened. She then thought to herself, "He could be frightened because of 'Parnasse's driving. I'm amazed we haven't crashed yet.
Montparnasse pulled off of the dirt road and there, they all saw it. It was a metallic box with several lights o it. The door was dented badly. Montparnasse stopped the car hard. Epster and Paul stepped out. Epster looked inside and saw two charred bodies. She wondered if the machine still worked. She dragged out the bodies covering her hands with medical gloves that she had in her pocket for Joly's last "self-examination". Paul staggered into the machine. Epster got in last and saw Montparnasse looking at them with the most pitiful expression.
"Take me with you," he pleaded.
"Sorry. There's only room for two." Eponine hissed.
With that, the door closed. Epster looked at the controls. She saw a screen that asked for a date.
"Umm... August 10, 1832."
The machine rattled and then Epster and Paul were hurled to the back of the machine. The door opened and the two saw a Parisian street. There, they saw Kay and Xari appear.
"If you're going to do anything, you have to do it now," Enjolras whispered.
Paul staggered out of the machine. Epster ran across the street where she saw Kay reaching for her gun. Epster saw Eponine grab for the gun. Epster pushed her out of the way and proceeded to wrestle with Kay for the ray gun. She screamed in agony as the trigger was pulled. Paul suddenly regained strength and ran to Epster as Grantaire, Joly, Eponine, and Enjolras ran from them. Paul helped Epster to the ground. He cradled her gently as Xari and Kay ran into their machine and disappeared with a dog and Montparnasse.
"Epster, why?"
"Because I want you to exist... even if I die here in the past... then you can get married..."
"Oh Epster. I can't let you die."
"There is no help for me now."
Paul gently picked her up. Joly began to talk through her.
"There is a run-down apartment down this street. We live there. Tell them you need to stay in there."
"Okay."
Paul ran with Epster in his arms. He saw the apartment and ran up the stars. He saw a door that was open and could see Grantaire and Eponine on a mattress and Joly and Enjolras on a couch. Paul could see a little girl and a little boy sitting on another mattress.
"Excuse me."
The group looked at them. Joly then looked at Paul with Epster's eyes.
"Remember what Epster did to take me out of you. Do the same with me. I can speak to them."
Paul sat down with Epster in his arms. He took her hands.
"Joly, enter me."
Joly laughed and then entered his mind.
"You should've rephrased that because in any other situation-"
"I forgot you like men."
Joly took control of Paul and lifted up Epster. He then began to speak in French to the group but since I don't know French very well I'll type what they say in English.
"Hello. Could you help us?"
"Grantaire! It's the girl who saved me and the man that was with her!"
"Yes. Umm. Could you please help us? We have no where to stay and we need medical attention."
"Sure. Gavroche, sleep on the floor tonight. That girl needs the bed more than you."
Joly saw him and Enjolras holding hands. He smiled and sighed.
"Thank you. Now, where should I sleep?"
"Well, she must be your mistress since you obviously care so much for her. Sleep next to her," Joly (1832) said.
Joly let Paul regain control. Paul laid Epster down on the mattress. He then sat next to her and felt tears begin to form in his eyes. Joly (1832) was bandaging Epster's wound.
"Please don't leave me, Epster. I care about you too much."
As night began to fall, Paul watched everyone else fall asleep. He looked down at Epster. The blood had not stopped gushing from her stomach. She would die and he would never get to tell her his secret. He fell asleep hearing over and over in his mind "After 20, age is just a number."
Meanwhile, a vigilant lawyer in a spandex suit with glasses and a tricolour sash was plotting his landing into the room.
