Cyborg had just placed Terra on the stage. Then as he and B.B turned around to leave they saw a hanging corpse.

"AHHHHHHHHH!" B.B screamed like a girl and began to run around in circles. Then Raven walked onto the stage and used her powers to levitate a knife and cut the rope down.

"I told him to stop telling stories about the ghost and to keep his hand at the level of his eyes but he didn't listen. And the house ghost told me to give you this." She handed an envelope to Cyborg. Beast Boy was still running around screaming in circles. Cyborg took the envelope and opened it, it read

Cyborg and Beast Boy, I want my money and I want it now. During your last performance box 5 was not empty. That arrogant fool, I believe Aqualad is his name, was in MY PRIVATE BOX! It is MY private box and therefore it is MINE and MINE alone. I will write it again to make sure it gets into your small heads BOX FIVE IS MY PRIVATE BOX IT IS MINE AND MINE ALONE! Oh, and I'm sending back Starfire; unless my demands are met (including that she is the lead in every opera) I will simply have to kidnap her again and kill the both of you. Have a wonderful day. --O.G.

"Raven, how can we be sure you're not the one killing all of these people?" Cyborg asked.

"I do not get paid to kill people; it would be a waste of my time."

"I think you're the ghost! How come you're the only one who talks to him? And you're always bringing us his letters! I bet you're the one who's killing everyone and you want my money!"

"I deliver his letters because he pays me a few hundred franks to do so."

"Yeah, that's all he's paying you for." Raven hit him over the head with her fan pretty hard, "Hey! That hurts you know!"

"Exactly why I did it. I was also going to say he talks to Starfire frequently I am not the only one he speaks to."

"That still don't explain about how you know about everyone who dies."

"I work here. I hear them making fun of the ghost, I tell them not to but they never listen, then they die, and now you refuse to listen. Keep your hand at the level of your eyes." Raven turned around to leave; she used her powers to trip B.B (he was running around in circles screaming the whole time) then she levitated the body and took out her comm. , "Operator, get me the nearest funeral home," pause, "I'm calling from the opera house," pause, "no the ghost can't have PMS he's a boy," pause, "no I have not tried giving him Midol," pause, "he wants a girlfriend and he's a musical genius but he's always hiding behind a mask," pause, "it's a very sad story and we shouldn't be speaking about him," pause, "you know what? Forget it I'm done doing business with you. You cost too much anyway." she shut the comm. off, "Great now I need to find a new funeral home."


Later that Day…

After a few weeks of holding Starfire, the phantom sent her back. They gave her a silent role in the next opera, Terra was still the star. Nobody cared about what the phantom said they were still ignoring all of his death threats. Big mistake.

Cut to ballet in the middle of the opera. A dead body falls onto the stage.

Total body count: 3

The dancers freaked but the audience thought this was part of the act and started cheering. Raven was backstage whispering at them to improvise while she got the body off of the stage. So the dancers kept dancing while Raven levitated the body off of the stage.

"He didn't listen to me either," Raven said to herself, "I tell everybody not to make fun of the ghost and they don't listen."

Now that the body has been taken away the dancers calmed down a little bit, their dance ended and Terra was brought back on the stage, followed by Starfire. Everything was going fine for the fist few minutes then Slade threw a blade from the highest balcony onto the record player.

"I requested that box five was to be left empty!" Slade said, "Did I not say that Starfire was to have the lead in every opera? I have been waiting impatiently for the money you owe me, you two fools I am not Raven," Raven waved at Beast Boy and Cyborg so they could see it wasn't her, "I warned you about the consequences, now you'll have to deal with them." Then he pulled out his sword, cut the chain that was holding up the big arse chandelier and it came crashing down onto the stage.


One Day Later…

"I hate this guy!" Cyborg said, "Look at these bills!" he threw papers all over the place, "we need a new chandelier, a bunch of repairs need to be made-"

"He killed my record player!" B.B held up both halves of his record player crying.


Outside…

Aqualad and Starfire are on the roof… alone, or so they think. Ok, they actually are alone, no stalkers… for now. Time for the stupid lovey-dovey part, people I cannot write romance, I can only mock it and mock it I shall.

"Starfire," Aqualad said reading his lines that were written on his hands, "I'm worried about you, who is this "angel of music" you're always talking about?"

"At first I thought he was the spirit of my father… but I do not know… he frightens me."

"You're dad was a nice guy, when did you realize his spirit isn't the kind that'd go on bimonthly massacres?" Starfire glared at him.

"I've seen him."

"Everybody saw him yesterday, what else is new?"

"I've seen his face. It is very scary; it is scarred and greatly disfigured worse than any monster I have ever fought and much worse than the swamp people of Orplex 15. I took of his mask and he began to yell at me, then when I started to cry he fell to his knees and started to cry and beg for my forgiveness."

"Then he's really ugly?" Starfire nodded, "So if he's really ugly you must love me and not him. Yes!" Starfire smacked him, "What was that for?"

"He loves me! He told me if I ever got married he would leave me forever." Starfire said sadly, "I want to leave him but if I do I fear he will die."

"Did he say you couldn't get engaged?"

"No." Starfire said happily, "Only that I could not marry."

Flashback

Slade: If you ever get married I will cover up my undying sorrow with rage, kill your husband and then leave you forever. Is that clear?

Starfire: Yes. What about engagements?

Slade: ((glare))

Starfire: There shall be no marriages!

End flashback

"Then you can get engaged?"

"Yes!"

"Will you marry me?" Aqualad was now reading from little bits of paper he had shoved in his sleeves.

"Yes!" Starfire said completely forgetting about the phantom.

"(Kiss Starfire) WHAT? NOBODY TOLD ME I HAD TO KISS HER!"

"Can't… breathe… corset…" Starfire fainted.

"Umm… wake up?" Aqualad kicked her a few times. Then Raven walked onto the stage.

"Who forced her into a corset?" Raven asked, there was no response, "Forcing any girl into a corset is as bad as forcing me into a corset. Who designed the costumes?"

Batman sunk down in his seat.

"Batman?"

"Umm…" Batman said.

"Now you will die!" Raven picked up a corset that was conveniently placed on the floor. Then she chased him around, got a hold of him, forced him into the corset using her powers and tightened it.

"I… don't… get… why… can't… break… out… of-" Batman said.

"Because corsets are consumed with evil. The perfect woman was supposed to have a waist of 18 inches back then and now you must have a waist of 18 inches! MUHAHAHA!" she continued to tighten it off stage. Meanwhile Aqualad had taken out a switch blade and undid the back of Star's corset.

"I believe we were supposed to kiss as in Victorian times it was only acceptable to kiss after being engaged." Starfire said.

"But it wasn't acceptable to kiss in public and we are clearly in public. I'll make arrangements for us to elope later. Bye!" Aqualad ran off stage. Starfire shrugged and followed him.

Throughout all of this Slade was sitting behind a statue, looking as though his heart had been ripped out, trampled over by a heard of wild boar, beaten with a club, chopped up into a million little pieces and then thrown in the furnace with some bad disco records. Then Robin walked up to him.

"This is my scene!" Robin said.

"What the? I'm the better actor, deal with it!" Slade said.

"You were never the better actor."

"I am which is why I was chosen for this part thank you very much."

"The phantom is supposed to be crying now. You can't make yourself cry. I'm the better actor."

"It's not like you'd stoop as low as to make your self cry either."

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

"Fine!

"Fine- what's the point of this?" Slade jumped Robin, then bound and gagged him (the audience was cheering like crazy) and threw him backstage. Then he took out a little notepad titled "kill list" and wrote the name Aqualad on it. Meanwhile Robin was able to break free; he ran back on the stage and jumped Slade, threw a few sad bags at him and eventually bound and gagged him.

……..

At the Masquerade a few days later

Everyone is there in a mask (duh) Aqualad and Starfire are together, some music is playing and everyone is happy. Then the lights shut off and the music stopped. Robin walked in wearing his Red X mask.

"Hello," he said, "you and you," he said to B.B and Cyborg, "I want my money this isn't a joke. Also your jobs lie in business and management not casting. I'm in charge of casting. Starfire will play the lead in the next opera, my opera" he threw his opera at them, "Don Juan Triumphant." he walked to Terra, "you're far too old for this, retire now and spare us," then he walked over to Starfire and took the ring off of her finger, "Who gave you this?"

Starfire said nothing. Then Robin said to Aqualad,

"The only reason I'm not beating you to a pulp is because ladies are present." pause, "As it is 1800 and something, I am sure you are aware that women are still thought of as property," all of the guys in the room nodded, "Starfire belongs to me."

"What the heck?" he said, "She's my property!"

"I AM NOT PROPERTY!" Starfire said. Her eyes were glowing and ready to shoot starbolts at the both of them.

"Actually we kinda are," Raven said, "your husband's even allowed to beat you with a stick as long as it isn't bigger than his thumb. This century pretty much sucks when it comes to rights unless you're a white guy with a ton of cash."

Starfire didn't say anything, she just stormed off.

"Now look at what you've done!" Robin said.

"This is your fault!" Aqualad said.

"No it's yours I only said she belonged to me, you called her property."

"But you referred to all women as property."

"But I didn't say Starfire was property."

"Yes you did."

"When?"

"When you called all women property."

"I said they were thought of as property not that they were."

"Well… well I love Starfire more than you do!"

"No you don't anyone who's read the book or has seen the movie knows that I love her more than you, a lot more than you. Look here," Robin pulled out a copy of the book and pointed to some pages, "Erick clearly loves Christine more than that loser Raoul!"

"Yeah, but she loves me back." Aqualad smirked.

At this Robin jumped Aqualad and began to strangle him Homer Simpson style. Realizing this fight was supposed to happen at the graveyard, Raven pulled down the appropriate backdrop. Then Slade broke free, ran onto the stage and started strangling Robin Homer Simpson style. Robin began to suffocate and so he released Aqualad. Aqualad ran away. Robin kicked Slade in the crotch. There was no affect considering Slade wears armor at all times. Slade saw a Mr. Softee truck and released his grip. Robin attempted to grab Slade's neck but Slade kicked Robin in the crotch, then he threw Robin in a bag. Slade kicked the bag pretty hard a few times. Robin gave cries of pain. Slade smiled, threw it in the prop room and locked the door. Then he went to the Mr. Softee truck and bought some ice-cream.


At the opening of Don Juan Triumphant…

Starfire is on stage singing about how she's going to cheat on her husband by going past the point of no return wherever the heck that may be. Slade killed the male lead and took his part. He walked onto the stage and sang his part of the song, then Starfire sang her part, then they sang together. They were just about to kiss when Starfire pulled off his mask, revealing another mask.

"Not again…" Starfire said as she took another mask off.

"I don't think so!" Slade said, and then he opened the trap door and took her down once again into the labyrinth.


Later…

"Ok," Aqualad said to Raven, "I know you have connections to the phantom. Tell me everything you know."

"What's in it for me?" Raven asked, "I see no reason to speak." Aqualad sighed and took out a few hundred franks, "That's more like it," Raven took the money, "he isn't a ghost, he's a man, a musical genius. He was born horribly disfigured that explains the mask. When I first found him we were both children, he was living with a group of traveling gypsies, they treated him worse than you'd treat animals, and my memory is becoming a blur… if only I had some form of currency to fuel it…" Aqualad put some more money in her hand, "yes, and then I saw him and took pity on him, I told him he could stay in the opera house if he wanted. I am assuming you want to find Starfire."

"Yes."

"My memory seems to be leaving me again…"

"I'm not paying you again."

"Fine, I'm not talking." Aqualad sighed and put some more money in her hand, "good, ok, follow me and remember keep your hand at the level of your eyes I cannot stress that enough." Then Raven got up and led him down some stairs, after a while of going down she said, "They store the tellytubbies down there, I'm not going any further."

"Ok, thanks."

"Now put your hand back at the level of your eyes." Aqualad ignored her and continued walking down the stairs, "They never listen, then he kills them and everybody wonders why."


In Slade's underground hideout place…

"Starfire, here's the deal, you can marry me and we can have a happy life together or I can blow the entire opera house up thus killing everyone. I've even made a new mask that-" before he could finish Robin popped up behind him with a big. Robin forced Slade into the bag and then threw it in the costume room and locked the door.

"Marry me or I'm blowing this place up," Robin said, "I've even made a new mask it makes me look like anybody. I can take you out on Sundays we can write operas together and take walks in the park and have children and-"

"How can you find happiness in marriage if I do not love you in that way?" Starfire asked sadly. Before Robin could answer Aqualad came running in, Robin quickly threw a noose over him and tied him to the gate.

"Raven's right, you really should've listened to her."

"Let her go." Aqualad said.

"I think you're forgetting something. If I'm in love with her why the heck would I hurt her?"

"You're a homicidal maniac on drugs!" Robin ignored this.

"Starfire if you don't marry me he dies, if you marry me he lives. Make your choice."

"I hate you," Starfire said, "not because of your face; because of you are full of meanness! We could've been good friends but you have to kill people!"

A moment of silence

"What's the point?" Robin let go of the rope, Aqualad began to break free, "there's nothing I can do..."

"Robin…" she walked up to him and took his mask off, and the one underneath it, and the one underneath it and the one underneath it… the masks are all gone ten minutes later. It's obvious now that he has some kinda latex on underneath. Then she gave him a kiss on the cheek. (A/N: That's right people, read the book it was a kiss on the cheek she never kissed him on the mouth!) Robin was now in complete shock.

"Not even my own mother kissed me… she would throw me the mask and tell me to be rid of her…" he kissed Starfire on her forehead, "I kissed her… and she did not die! What a wonderful feeling it is to kiss another human being-"

"THIS WAS MY PART! DAMN YOU GRAYSON!" Slade began to strangle Robin, "YOU STOLE MY DRAMATIC ENDING!"

"Go now…" Robin said while being strangled (yes he cares about being the lead that much) "leave me but promise to come back and bury my corpse. I'll die without you, but I'll die happy-"

"I strangle you and you still steal my part!"

Starfire ran to Aqualad, the background music for "All I ask of You" started playing.

"Robin, Slade, Erick, phantom or whoever go ahead and take her," Aqualad said, the music stopped, "I'm beautiful I can have any girl I want, you, you're screwed for life."

Robin and Slade both pause. They jump Aqualad. Then Edward Scissorhands waved to Starfire from the audience.

"Eddie!" she said with hearts in her eyes, jumped off the stage and ran away with him. Aqualad, Robin and Slade's eyes popped, they all froze.

"What the hell was that?" Aqualad asked.

"Exactly why I would've made a better Christine than her." Robin answered.

"So the play is over right?" Slade asked.

"Yeah."

"Wanna go for pizza?" Aqualad asked.

"Ok." Slade and Robin said. Robin took off his latex mask, revealing his normal mask.

"Wait a minute I'm evil!" Slade said, "I can't have pizza with you!" Then Slade knocked Robin and Aqualad unconscious, took their money and walked off the stage.

"The play is over…" Beast Boy came onto the stage and said, "You can leave now." There was a small amount of confused applause. The End

"No!" Raven said, "This isn't the end. Batman hasn't had his public shaming yet." She dragged Batman on the stage; he was in a corset and trying very hard to breathe, "You have been sentenced to three hours of public shaming and then you must forever wear this letter "C" on your costume, for the sin you committed, forcing girls into corsets!" Batman glared at her and then went on to receive the rest of his public shaming.
