Erik's Secret Admirer: It's okay to be vicious…just not to the author. 

Phantomette of the opera: Carpet, and the house gets caught on fire from there.

Jamea: Nope, sorry. I've already got the death scene planned out.

LonesomeGurlAngelofDeath: And you aren't as nice to people you don't like…

Mouse in the Opera House: Yep.

Phantomgurl74: You'll see why he is having spasms in the chapter after this, I think…

WanderingTeen: Does it matter what kind?

Die

Erik

In the very far distance, we can see smoke rising, and my hurt lurches. What if that is the house Christine is in? What if he is burning her to death? I made the horses go faster, something I didn't believe was possible. I will save Christine, no matter what. This time, Raoul is going to die, no matter if Christine says not to kill him or not.

God damn these horses! They are too slow! If they keep going at this pace, I will RUN to find Christine.

Nadir

When we all saw the smoke, Erik looked like he was ready to have a heart attack. Meg gasped in fear, and I shook my head sadly. Erik began growling, and made the horses go faster. I put my arms around Meg, and she buried her head in my chest.

"Oh Christine, I hope you are all right."

Said Meg, her voice muffled.

I hope that she is alright as well, for all of our sake.

Christine

I must be infinitely stupid! Why in the world did I run up to the roof? What point is there in that? If the house burns down, I will be on the roof, and I am cornered. I can't go back down, because the whole first floor is on fire, and I have nowhere to go but here. I hear Raoul lumbering up the stairs, crying out in pain every once in awhile. I search the roof helplessly, for anything that might help me get down.

"You get back here, bitch!"

Raoul said hoarsely, as he made it to the roof.

He began walking slowly towards me, and I turned to run. But there is nowhere to run. Well, I could run in circles around him, until he is exhausted…

He reached his hand out, and I danced out of the way. I knew he was planning on killing me, and I could do nothing to stop him, except make him pass out. Again, I underestimated him, and he grabbed me as I was turning around. He was choking me, and I couldn't breathe, everything was going black… Suddenly, his hand was not on my throat anymore, and I could breathe. I forgot how sweet air was, even though there is smoke everywhere, choking both of us. Raoul of staggering backwards, his eyes rolled back in his head. He fell over, after tripping on a branch, and jerked, and convulsed. Finally, it stopped, and I tentatively walked over to him.

Erik

Oh God, it is the house Christine is in! I must save her. I pull the horses right in front of the house, and I hear her cry out. It was from above. I looked up, and she had the most horrified expression on her face. I saw Raoul at her feet, not moving. I would kill that bastard! In the carriage there was some rope, and I threw it up on the roof.

"Christine, tie it around that tree!"

The tree was right next to the roof. She obeyed, almost looking numb, and moving very slowly. What was going on?
