A/N: Mwahahahaha! More to come (more maniacal laughter)!

What was left of the mob quickly scuttled away moaning screaming and even a few laughing hysterically, completely mad…

How dare this man do this! I want to die! Is there no justice in the world for the wicked? I believe said a small sharp voice you just witnessed it

I stayed where I was preparing to…rebuke him harshly…but no words came.

I would have done anything for Christine…Oh, Christine…but this is just... slaughter not justice! Are you so sure? And he had enjoyed it! Reveled in it! Oh, and you didn't…

"I am Somnus." He stated arrogantly as he walked, no slithered, to a stop directly on front of me not two feet away and paused, "Follow me." He ordered.

He held out his hand, and turned towards a tunnel on my right his hand hung in the air for a moment. I did not reach for it.

He exhaled sharply which I took as a "Very well then, if you won't take my hand the least you can do is follow me. I am trying to save your life."

He turned his back to me and smoothly strode to the tunnel's entrance. When he did not hear my footsteps he turned around and leaned against the wall.

What choice did I have? I gathered my cape, fitted my mask to my fac,e and walked briskly to catch up with Somnus who was already setting the rapid pace to, to?

Where are we going? All my life I have known Christine, My Angel, now, I am to follow a demon? How far the mighty have fallen…
