As soon as the sunset behind the mountain peaks tongues of red yellow and blue flames lit up the night sky. A distant cry began to arise and in no time a band of ghoulish creatures smothered the air with their moaning musical talents. With a blink of an eye the whole land was crawling with figures one could only see in their dreams. The tall slender image of no other then the Pumpkin King hovered over the sea of monsters and spoke with pure enthusiasm. "Thus begins the night we all have been waiting for!" He pronouns as the crowd's voices rose higher then ever. Through out the night, Sally had stepped to close to the Human World door and stumbled inside without anyone noticing.
Everywhere you looked there would be a different face at the Grand Masquerade that night. The truth was told as they all sang and danced away. "Paper faces on parade, hide your face so the world will never find you." Bright colors of all shades swamped the floor. It was spectacular sight for all to see. Christine Daae, an opera singer and her hansom escort Raoul arrived short time after it began and immediately took key and joined the celebration. All fell silent suddenly upon seeing a mysterious being dressed in all red with a deaths head appeared. He slowly approached Miss Daae and ripped clear off her necklace which held the wedding ring Raoul had given her. With that the dark figure disappeared within a fog of smoke.
Christine then fled from the building sobbing. She entered a quiet cemetery and came across a statue in the form of an angel holding a large book. At the sight memories flooded her head of her deceased father and her voice trainer whom she named "Angel of Music". She gently took a seat on the edge of the statue. She twitched at a soft creek then shrieked with surprise as she fell through some secret doors.
