Disclaimer: I don't own PTO, as I have already stated....I want my own Erik (...
Chapter 3: Christine...Christine...Annette?!
................................................................................
(We once again find ourselves in the Basement of Big Lots, where Erik is singing a song to the tune of Music of the Night)
Erik: Wal-Mart tries to
Lead us to temptation...
We fight back with
Prices that are a sensation...
Soon those fools will find
I have something new in mind...
You will sing
Our theme song and our motto...
Then you'll choose
Me over that Fop...Ohhhhh......
Very soon we'll be
The Eternal King and Queen
of this perfect discount paradise...
Help me make the prices so they're right...
(He skips to the end, simply because there is nothing else to say...)
You alone
Can help me with my plight...
Here you'll find
The prices are so right....
(Christine is entranced by his gorgeous voice...not so much by the lyrics...)
Erik: (Gently caresses Christine's cheek) Soon, The Big Lots board members will hear you sing, and you will be the voice behind my discount devotion... but you must return to me if you wish to become truly great!
Christine: Well...I don't know...
Erik: (glares and gives her a quick flash of a Punjab Lasso made out of Big Lots yarn)
Christine: Oh...All right.... Annette won't miss me if I'm gone once in a while...
(At Annette's house)
Annette: God Damn it, Where is she!!!?? It doesn't take that freak'n long to go to the IN and OUT Mart!!!
(Back in the lair)
Erik: You should return to your friend.
Christine: (shrug) okay...thank you.
(They sit quietly, glancing about at random objects occasionally meeting the other's gaze in which case they quickly look away...we can hear Michaelangelo (The teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (DUH)) burp in the background)
Erik: (finally standing) I'll show you out...
(Christine enters Annette's house)
Annette: Where in the hell have you been!? I kept calling the in and out mart, and you know how Apu is, you can barely understand a word! But he managed to tell me that he hadn't seen you.
Christine: I went for a walk...
(The Phone rings)
Annette: (picking it up) Y-ello? Yes, she's here...(hands Christine the phone) It's for you.
Christine: Hello? Yes Mrs. White, I'm staying with Annette.........Oh......Really?! That's great!!! OH, Thank you!...Yes, Absolutely! Bye! (misses the receiver three times before successfully hanging up) Carlotta gave up her part in the musical! I get to play Eliza!!! ( hops about the room excitedly making high pitched screechy noises)
Annette: (looks at Christine with a faraway look in her eyes) There's something weird goin' on here, and I'm gonna find out what it is...(she looks out the window toward the Big Lots sign glowing in the distance)

A.N:Sorry it's so short, and I hope it 'twas funny...I'll keep going If I get a few more reviews...yes that means you have to review...or else? or else I'll (there is a load crash as her closet door flies open and Firmin and Andre tumble out, rather disheveled ;-) ) EWWWW!!!! Get out of my closet!! (beats them with a broom while shouting : ) R&R FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!!
