Kairi was taken by the hand and was lead thorugh a dimmed lit corridor of candalabras. Is this him? Is the Phantom of the Opera...Really real? thought kairi too entranced by the figure to say anything. But suddenly the words poured out of her. She only rehearsed this scene once with Tidus and that was it. But with the phantom...It felt perfect...
"In sleep he sang to me,
in dreams he came . . ."
As Kairi was lead out of the corridor the Phantom lead Kairi to a silky brown horse. He helped her ontop the horse and the Phantom took the reigns from the ground and slowly lead the horse and Kairi through another dim litted tunnel.
"That voice which calls to me and speaks my name . . .
And do I dream again?
For now I find the Phantom of the Opera is there -
inside my mind . . ."
Kairi sang still hypnotized by the Phantom. Something about him drawned him to her. But now it was the Phantoms turn to speak once again.
"Sing once again with me our strange duet . . ."
His voice was sweet yet powerful. Hhis cape flowed at his back as the tunnel was a bit drafty, however thetorches that lit the tunnel didn't falter. Kairi felt as if she never had before in her life, it was scary, exhilirating, romantic, and a whole other bunch of words that can be used to describe her moment with him.
"My power over you grows stronger yet . . .
And though you turn from me,
to glance behind,
the Phantom of the Opera is there -
inside your mind . . ."
The Phantom continued to sing with his power tune, his voice was familiar. This whole feeling she had was not, it was something new that had entered Kairi's body. At the end of the tunnel was a dark murky river. A small boat was docked at the stone steps which lead into the river.
The Phantom helped Kairi off the horse and helped her into the boat. The Phantom then went on and grabbed a large wooden pole leaning agianst the wall. He then used it to row Kairi down the river.
"Those who have seen your face draw back in fear . . .
I am the mask you wear . . ." kairi sang and slowly started to become CHristine herself as she did.
"It's me they hear . . ." Riku sang but didn't look at Kairi. He kept rowing down the murky river. The setting was a dungeon, the sewage from traverse Town ended up here probably. But that didn't stop the Phantoms duet with Kairi.
"Your(me) spirit and your(me) voice,
in one combined:
the Phantom of the Opera is there inside your/my mind . . ." They both sang this time, Kairi sang "me" and Phantom sang "your" as they continued down the river.
"He's there,
the Phantom of the Opera . . .
Beware the Phantom of the Opera . . ."
These voices were not of Kairi's or Phantoms. It was other supernatural voices that created an even more dramatic and entrancing effect on Kairi.
"Here's there, the Phantom of the Opera..." sang Kairi as they now headed toward a large gate which slowly went up as they approched.
"I am your Angel of Music! Sing for me!" cried the Phantom yelling out. His voice boomed as we reached the gate. "Sing for me!" Kairi's voice exploded into a higher key and continued to raise as Phantom yelled out for her to sing for him.
As the singing went louder the boat floated toward a house kind of. It was a lair of some sort. It was messy with a lot of pieces of fabric around the palce. There was also a large organ, littered with music sheets.
Kairi didn't pay attention to the details as she concentrating on singing louder and lounder. "Sing for me!" yelled Riku for the last time as the boat docked. Kairi this time went higher then she could ever imagine, a pierceing note yet gentle and obedient. Suddenly the scared emotion Kairi held melted away as the Phantom helped her out of the boat...
