1The Return of the Phantom 10: Is it really the Opera Ghost
Derrick eyes widen "What is this?" He looks at Chelle and then at the table, "What is all of this, and why are you here and all alone?"
"Alone? But, I'm not alone", Chelle looks around the room and see that Derrick is right; she is the only person in the room. "Where did he go?"
"Who? Chelle what are you talking about?"
"He was just here", Chelle looks all around the room, and then she notices something that wasn't there before. Sitting on the table is a single red rose with a black ribbon tied around it, and an other note.
Chelle walks over to the table and take the rose, the notes, and the opera, and then she runs out the door. She runs all the way to her room. When she gets to her room she throws all the stuff on her bed. Chelle then takes the first note addressed My dear Christine and open it. She starts to read it very slowly..
"Christine,
I knew you would return to me.
You could not escape the music of the night. You will be mine once
again. Your angel
Og"
Chelle throws the note across the room in disbelief. She then opens up the other note with great nervousness. She doesn't know what to expect; she just was hoping for something to explain what is happening.
"My child,
Why were you so frightened? Have
you forgotten your angel? And, who was that boy? I had you back and
he had to interfere. I will not let you get away again. You must love
me. Your angel of music.
Og"
"What does this mean? Could this really be from the Opera Ghost, and does he believe Im really Christine?"
Chelle grabs the two notes and runs out of the room to go find Jeni. She finds Jeni in the corps de ballet dorm rooms. She runs up to Jeni throwing herr arms around her and sobbing. "Chelle, what's wrong?"
"It's him", she says trying to hold back tears, "it's really him."
"What are you talking about? Who's him?"
Chelle explains everything that happen; seeing the man by the grand stair case, following him to the strange room, the items on the table, and Derrick walking in as the man disappears. Chelle then give her the two notes and she reads them in disbelief. "It can't actually be the ghost of the opera ghost, Chelle, can it?"
"What else could it be? There is no reasonable explanation for any of it."
"Chelle, we are going to find out what is causing all of this. I will help you find out if it is the last thing I do."
Chelle decides to show Jeni the room that the mysterious man led her to. They walk down the long hallway and arrive at the door to the room. Chelle slowly open the door and walk in. There was the table in the middle of the room. The vial and wedding dress were still sitting there. Chelle dares not go near it, so Jeni decides to walk up to the table. "Chelle is this picture of you?" she holds up an old black and white photo of a lady in a wedding dress and vial. Chelle takes the picture from Jeni and look at it; in the picture there is a girl that has long curly blond hair and looks a lot like Chelle. The girl is wearing the same wedding dress and vial that is on the table.
"What is this? Who is this girl? She looks just like me!" Chelle turns the picture over to look at the back and drop it suddenly out of fear.
"Chelle what's wrong? What is it", Jeni bends down to pick up the picture. She then turns it over to read the back of it. There in red letters it says Christine Daae. "OMG, she looks just like you. You could be twins."
Chelle takes the picture and runs out of the room crying. She rushes back to her room as fast as possible. When she gets there she throws herself onto her bed crying. "How can this be possible? It doesn't make any sense." Chelle takes the notes, picture, and the original copy of Don Juan Triumphant and throws it at the mirror as hard as she can.
The mirror then seems to start to turn a little. Chelle walks over to it and pushes on it. The mirror then turns on a pivot. "OMG, this is the mirror from the story. This is Christines old dressing room!" Chelle grabs her long black velvet cloak and throw it on. She takes a deep breath and then walk threw the opening behind the mirror.
The mirror quickly closes behind her. It is pitch black and she can see nothing. She tries to feel for the wall but suddenly she doesn't have to because candles light up all along the wall. Then she hears a familiar voice sing, "I am your angel of music, come to your angel of music." A man wearing all black and a full black mask covering the top half of his face comes walking toward Chelle. He reaches out for her and she faint with him catching her in his arms.
