All of the characters other than the Phantom belong to me. I didn't know quite where to put this story because it has stuff from the book and the musical/movie so I would like some feed back as to where you think it should be.

The Purchase

Cadence sat on the huge old stage with her legs hanging over the edge into the orchestra pit. Her auburn hair cascading down her back covering her forest green long sleeve shirt, barely touching the top of her long brown skirt that covered her brown leather boots. Her green eyes went from her brothers Aubrey and Kane who where signing the purchase documents on each other's backs, to the box just to the left of the stage. She felt like someone was watching her from that direction, but when she looked there was no one there. She frowned to herself; she was always a little paranoid when it came to old theaters. She gazed past the box to observe the stage curtains, green velvet with a gold trim. Everything was old and dusty because the theater had opened in the late eighteen hundreds and had been hosting shows until a year ago when the manager's health had become an issue for him. The manager's of old had made sure that the theater functioned as it had when it first opened. The old gas lamps to light the stage still worked, as well as all the other lamps in the theater even a hundred years later.

"Cadence, what do you think of this old place?" her brother Aubrey asked shaking her out of her thoughts.

"Its nice, but are you sure we're the only ones here?" she asked as she stood up and walked toward him.

"Yeah the old manager couldn't come so he just gave us the keys, why?" Kane asked looking up from his papers.

"I don't know, I thought I felt someone watching me from the box over there," Cadence said pointing to the box.

"Really? Hey Aubrey maybe we should check it out. I mean someone could have broken in." Kane said looking at the box suspiciously.

"Fine by me, shall we start in that box?"

"Wait a minute I'm going too! I don't want to be left alone in here, I've seen way to many horror movies to make that mistake."

"Suit yourself. Okay lets go." Aubrey said shrugging his shoulders.

Aubrey and Kane are practically twins, even if they are a year apart. They both had short dark brown hair and fair skin that runs in the family. Aubrey the eldest has crystal blue eyes, while Kane has hazel eyes. They even dress in a similar fashion. Both wear slacks and well fitted shirts in their favorite colors. Cadence is the youngest of the trio; she is two years younger than Kane and they never let her forget it. They are always saying, "We need to look out for our kid sister."

When they entered the box and pulled back the drapes that blocked the entrance they found a small white envelope sitting on the railing in front of the seats. Sealing the envelope was red wax in the shape of a skull. Aubrey stepped forward and carefully picked up the mysterious paper. On the front of the envelope written in red ink it read:
