Everything had been confusing between the two men and the young boy. Each of them had a strong emotion for Angela and was willing to hear but not all of them accepted it.
"Christene would never do that," Erik yelled, the three of them had moved down to his lair about 3 hours ago.
"Believe it lover boy, its logical" Charlie said. It was now a game of insults; Charlie had been going on for hours taunting and teasing the Phantom, who only sneered and made his own remarks.
"Well he's in love with your sister" James mumbled for the millionth time.
"Yea and first things first, we drop contact with you" Erik mumbled mostly to himself.
"O yea, who says I'm going to even let you came near my sister after this, what makes you think she deserves your" Charlie threatened as the two began to get closer to one another.
"Your right she deserves better" Erik said, and Charlie looked at him shocked not expecting him to say that.
"Well if you want that to happen, we have to get to work," James said through his grinding teeth.
"Alright kid what's the deal," Charlie said.
"OK if Miss de Changy comes back anytime soon, to put it bluntly were screwed" James started "we need to number one protect Angela from her, and Erik over there has to put his supposedly genius brain to the test".
"What's that supposed to mean" Erik growled.
"Don't assume, try not to make and ass out of yourself and come up with a 'brilliant' idea" Charlie said smugly.
"Harder for you than me" Erik replied.
"God damn it, stop fighting. Charlie, deal with the fact that your sister is finally in love. Phantom, deal with the fact that you have to put up with this, we need to work together" James yelled. Charlie simply sneered and walked away. "This is gonna take forever" James sighed.
Angela woke up, and she was sore as hell from sleeping in a fetal position. She stretched and got out of the cot she was sleeping in. She felt like an idiot, she couldn't believe she had lost it like that. As she walked to the door, Charlie walked in and shut the door behind him.
"And where do you think your going" he said to his baby sister as if she were 5.
"Out to, number one find James, and two see who else you killed while I was asleep" Angela sneered at her brothers treatment of her.
"Number three, to go back with that Phantom" Charlie hissed.
"Maybe" Angela yelled, then like Déjà vu Charlie hit her across the face. Charlie being very strong, made her fall to the floor. Then with a thump Charlie fell to the floor, Angela was then picked up and placed back on the cot. Her hair was covering her face so that no one could see her tears as she choked down a frustrated yell. She was so tired of being weak, but as on now, her mind was too clouded for her to do anything rash. It was evident to her that it was the Phantom that carried her to the cot.
"And you call yourself her brother" the Phantom hissed, and Angela heard his foots steps make there way over to her. He picked her up and she rested her head agents his chest, her hair still covering her face. The whole way down the Phantom gave her comfort with soothing words until she fell into sweet unconsissness.
