Chapter Two

Janine woke up to the sweet sound of a nearby violin playing lightly, but did not open her eyes. For a moment, she had forgotten where she was, but then was quickly reminded from the pain in her back. She went back over the details that she remembered in her head. Erik, the cloaked figure who she had seen, had cleaned up her wound and wrapped soft cloth around her. That was all Janine could recall.

Slowly, Janine opened her eyes and looked around. She was on the same swan shaped bed she had been on when Erik cleaned her wound. There was black lace surrounding the swan, and Janine had one of the red blankets from the bed draped over her. She climbed off the bed and lifted the lace over her head, letting it fall back down afterwards. With a straight back, she walked out of the room she was in toward the sound of the violin. Surly enough, it was coming from Erik, sitting with his back facing organ, with the violin resting gently on his shoulder.

Janine approached Erik dragging her feet. He did not stop playing, but looked up at her for a moment, before returning to his music. Janine did not recognize the song, but smiled softly, for it was very calming. Erik stopped playing and looked up at Janine, his face still masked with the white mask that he had worn before. Janine stared at the mask.

"Why do you wear that?" She asked in a tired voice.

Erik just shook his head, "It doesn't matter. What does matter, however, is if you're feeling any better." He stood up and walked behind her. "Is you're back feeling well?" Janine felt his hand lightly touch the top of her back just above the wound.

"Y-yes! It feels great!" Janine lied. She quickly turned around and smiled at him. She didn't really want to talk about how her back felt; she just wanted to know what was going on. "Hey, what happened before I fell asleep? What did you do to me?"

Erik sighed, "You passed out in my arms when I was treating your wound. You did lose quite a bit of blood without realizing it. And, before you ask, I did nothing to you after that but lay you on the bed and leave." He added this last bit with an odd sort of frustration.

Janine nodded, "Ok, sure, I'll believe you. Now, how do I get out of this place?" she asked him, trying to sound smart.

"I'm not sure how you got in." Erik simply replied, equally as smart.

"Well, will you at least help me find my way out?" she questioned, tilting her head to one side slightly, trying to act cute. It sometimes worked with her father.

"Of course, mademoiselle," He said, his eyes beginning to grow distant behind his mask. He just stood there, watching her, as if expecting her to go away on her own. "Well, can't you remember the way you came?"

"I do!" Janine stated quickly, "Maybe I was just taking my time!" She turned and followed the path she had walked down when she approached the organ. She searched over the ground. Erik said she had lost a lot of blood, but if she did, why wasn't there any over the floor? Before she could even get this question out, Erik told her that he had nothing better to do than clean up. She was a little surprised that he had said this, but gave up on pondering how he would know. She had a small headache, and did not plan on making it worse.

Janine slowly came to a stop on the pathway. What lie ahead was just a dark cavern. Erik came up behind her and looked at her.

"Stuck?" He asked. Then, before she could answer, he handed her a candle. She sighed and took it from him, smiling. The dim light illuminated the area, but Janine could still barley see. This must have been where she had come before the met Erik, although, she could only hope it was. As she walked, Erik trailed behind her, not making any sound. All she could do was walk now, for she had no clue where she was headed, but didn't want to tell Erik as he would know exactly where they were. She would rather do things on her own.

After about fifteen minutes of silence, Erik tapped Janine's shoulder. She whirled around to look at him. He was looking at the ground. Janine followed his gaze and spotted a flashing red light. It was her cell phone! Janine smiled and set the candle on the ground and rushed to her phone. She opened the cover and a blue light filled the room from the screen. At least, it seemed that it filled the room. The light really isn't that bright when you're not in a dark cave. Janine smiled happily and looked up at Erik. His face was twisted with horror and shock as he stared at the phone. Janine looked at him with confusion. Did he really live underground so long he didn't even know what a cell phone was?

Erik slowly approached Janine and her phone. "What is that?" He asked, peering over Janine's shoulder. Janine laughed and pushed a few buttons, the phone began to vibrate. Erik immediately flung himself to a wall of the cave. He was breathing heavily and Janine soon figured that Erik was afraid of a cell phone! She giggled and walked to Erik, holding the phone at her side.

"Don't worry about it!" She said, holding back laughter, "It's just a phone is all!"

"What is a phone?" Erik questioned, not taking his eyes off of it.

"You can call people with it, you know, modern technology!" she looked at the screen on her cell and frowned, "I don't have any bars in this place, so I can't show you."

"Bars?" Erik asked, now more puzzled than ever.

Janine giggled and shook her head, "Never mind that, what's that?" She looked at a small piece of cloth on the ground. It must've been from her shirt! She held out the phone to light up the area. Surly enough, there was blood around it. She followed the blood with her eyes. A few spots created a trail out of the cave, the way the two had come in. This was the right place!

"Where exactly did you say you were from, Janine?" Erik asked, breaking the awkward silence.

"I didn't," Janine replied, as she walked over to the cloth and looked up at a ledge, "But, if you must know, I'm from Montana! Is that not where we are?"

"Montana? What's that? Or, where? Perhaps even when is that?" Puzzled, Erik followed Janine and also looked up at the ledge. "What is it?" He asked and glanced at Janine, then to the ledge again.

"My ticket home I sure hope!" Janine handed Erik the cell phone, which he took reluctantly, and began to climb to the ledge. With much effort, and a push from Erik, she finally made it. She screamed with delight and shock.

"What is it?" Erik quickly climbed up as well and looked at Janine. She looked at him, her eyebrows raised.

"Fear for my safety?" she asked. Erik calmed down and his eyes resumed their distant look.

"Well, I thought, I mean to say-"

"Hush," Janine pointed at the wall. There were lights swirling around about two feet from where they were sitting. Erik's eyes grew wide as he watched the pale red, blue, and green. Janine put her hand over his (which made him jump) and pulled him to the light. When the got right next to it, Erik pulled back.

"What is that?" He breathed.

"That," Janine said, trying to pull Erik toward it, "Is how I came into this place. And it's exactly how we're going to get out!"

"We're? Oh no, I'm not swimming in flashing colors!"

"What? It doesn't hurt! It's actually rather pleasant. Please Erik?" She pulled on him gently. "I want you to be with me so I don't die or something"

"Very convincing words, Janine" Erik sighed and gave her a nod. Janine grinned and slowly made her way through the light, pulling Erik along behind her.

Chapter Two: End

Yeah, that felt like a good place to end it…sorry it's so lame! I'm such a bad writer! I'm just having fun! -

'Oh no, I'm not swimming in flashing colors!'

By far my favorite Erik line! Lmfao!
