Chapter 5

Katie and Mandi jumped at the loud noise, each looking around fearfully. Katie's heart sank,

"The siren." She gasped, losing all the pigment in her face, her cold hands gripping Mandi's tightly. Silently she rose from the bed, dragging Mandi up with her. Shooting her a fearful look, they made their way to the door, Katie slowly opening it and peering out.

She watched Erik slip out of his bedroom, his golden eyes locking on her, a small worried grin spread across his masked face, as he turned form her, heading to the main door. Mandi poked her head out beside Katie, watching him disappear off.

"Where is he going?" She questioned, pushing the door open to slip out into the hallway. Taking a step forward, Katie grabbed her forearm, snapping her attention back to her best friend.

"What are you doing?" She hissed, her eyes wide with terror. Mandi rolled her eye and sighed, grabbing Katie by the ams, pulling her into the hall.

"Following him. Come on Lotte, what's wrong with you? Since when do I have more courage than you?" She joked, still pulling on Katie.

"I just have a bad feeling, alright?" Katie protested, wrenching herself from Mandi's grasp, walking in front of Mandi. With a laugh, she followed Katie, down to where Erik disappeared off to.

Just as Katie went to push the door open, it ripped from her hands, opening to a pair of a familiar deep brown eyes. Katie stumbled back and gasped at the man who stood before her. Wavy blond hair pulled back in a simple ponytail, sharp jaw, soft round nose, it was him, Raoul. Katie backed up until hitting Mandi, who protectively wrapped her arms around her best friend.

"Christine, why?" Tears started to form in his eyes, as he took a step towards them. Instinctively Mandi pulled her back, watching him as a mother cheetah would, waiting to snap at him if he tries to harm the one thing she is protecting, in this case, her best friend.

"Why did you leave me, and for him?" He hissed, looking towards the door, where Erik was standing, a mocking grin upon his face.

"Are you appeased Vis Count? She is safe." He spoke to Raoul with a hint of amusement in his voice. Raoul glared at Erik, his hands reaching into his coat pocket.

"She will never be safe with a monster." He hissed, pulling his hand out of his pocket, reveling the barrel of a silver pistol.

"Stop!" Katie practically screamed, every ones attention focused on her.

"Please stop." She begged, looking between the two of them, her heart tearing in two. Part of her loves Raoul, he was safe, and comforting, but Erik on the other hand, was everything she ever dreamed of. Looking sadly at Mandi, she broke away from her friend's protective grasp, steping towards Raoul.

"Why did you come here?" She asked sternly, locking her gaze with his.

"For you! Why would you leave like that, on our wedding night! I thought you loved me!" His body seemed to shake from his tears, and anger.

"Why would you return to him! He's a monster! A murderer! He killed my brother!" He screamed, his eyes burning with rage at Erik.

"Shut up!" Mandi hissed, stepping to stand beside Erik.

"Don't you dare, he is more of a man than you will ever be." Erik looked down at her with sheer shock. No one has ever defended him like that, especially not someone he didn't know. Raoul tilted his head in curiosity, staring at Mandi.

"Who are you to speak up for such a beast?" He asked, laughing her raging glare.

"What Fucking Part of shut up don't you understand?" She screamed, moving towards him to stare him in the face, her hands curling in to involuntary fists. Shaking, he raised the gun, pointed to Erik.

"Mandi, please don't." Katie whispered, longing to join her best friend side, but paralyzed with fear.

"So he has bewitched another girl? Not again." He hissed, cocking the gun.

"Raoul please, I'm sorry, Let's just go home." She begged, praying he would stop. Turning his head towards her, the tears flowed faster down his face.

"Christine, my love, this is for you." The sound of the shot echoed around them, assaulting their senses. Erik's eyes widen in shock as he felt no pain, He knew the Viscount had terrible aim, after all he had been shot by him once before, but he would never miss so close...

stumbling back, Mandi looked up at her best friend in horror, pain shotting through her body, the wind knocked out of her body from the force. Looking down she watched the crimson liquid spill from her chest, her mind racing over the last few seconds.

Katie's scream pierced through them, as she ran to her best friend, who slowly sank to the ground. Taking Mandi up in her arms, she rocked her, pressing her sleeve to the wound, trying to stop the priceless liquid from spilling.

"What have you done!" She screamed at Raoul, pure hate in her eyes. Mouth hanging open in shock, body shaking, Raoul stumbled back, dropping the cursed weapon.

"I'm sorry." He said simply, before running out of the door. Looking down at his weeping love, Rage filled Erik's body, as he ran after Raoul.

"Jammes, Everything is going to be fine." She promised, her voice shaky as tears spilled from her eyes, Mandi smiled weakly, trying to ignore the pain.

"You are a terrible lier." She joked, Katie's tears mingling with her own. A small laugh escaped Katie's lips, before she gently kissed her forehead, laying Mandi's head in her lap.

"I love you Lotte, you are everything to me-" She was cut be a cough, blood splattering from her lips onto Katie's dress.

"Shh... Jammes, I know, I love you too, I can't live without you." She sobbed, pulling her closer.

"Please don't leave me, You promised you would never leave me." Her body shook from her sobbing, as she stroked Mandi's hair lovingly.

"I'll never leave you, I promise you that." Reaching her hand up, she wiped the tears away from her red cheeks.

"Lotte, promise me one thing? Please?" Mandi said, another blood filled cough following.

"Anything." She vowed, running her finger down her best friend, her world's cheek.

"You can have him now, Love him for the both of us." Her voice rasped, looking up into the sea foam blue eyes.

"Je t'aime." She whispered, before closing her eyes, hiding the depth of her soul for evermore.

"Please, Jammes, no." Katie whimpered, feeling her go limp in her arms.

"Please, please." She sobbed, burying her face into Mandi's golden hair, Rocking and she cried burning tears.

"Jammes." She whimpered, pulling her face away from her lifeless body.

"I love you my sister." As she spoke, Mandi grew transparent before her eyes, her weight turning to nothing.

"No, please!" She cried out, watching Mandi's body fade to nothing.

Mandi shot up, gasping for air, her hand clutching her chest. Looking up, she found herself laying on Katie's bed, the failing sunlight laying over her.

"What the-" She began, looking into the mirror that She and Katie sung into. Her eyes went wide with shock as she saw the black domino clinging to her figure. She ran her hands over in in disbelieve, expecting it to be her imagination.

"It really happened." She gasped, staring into her own eyes.
