"Ma'am, would you like to buy a paper?" a boy off the street asked a beautiful but cruel looking woman. "Bother someone else with your petty money problems!" she yelled as she shoved the boy off the street and into an alleyway. 'I will find a way to kill that man's daughter' the woman thought as she made her way to the opera house. Eva had her hair up in a bun as she changed into some womanly nightwear given to her by Erik. Lately he'd either been making something behind the curtain or composing, Eva sighed. She stood and sneaked past Erik, hiding behind a curtain again, as she shrugged off the nightwear and silently slipped into the lake. The past few days felt lonely while he worked, but Eva never complained, she didn't want to feel like a burden to him. "Evangeline, what are you doing?" Eva turned to see Erik standing there with his arms crossed, he looked utterly exhausted. "Come on, it's time for bed," Eva sighed once before coming to the shore and dressing. She laid down next to him, and he held her gently against his chest, and his breathing slowed long before hers did. The next morning, everyone was hustling to get ready for the show tomorrow night. Eva's hair stayed down today as she wore a midnight blue, long-sleeved dress, Erik hadn't woken and she decided it would be good for him to get some sleep. Eva turned the corner and bumped into Madame Giry and her daughter Meg. "Oh! Good morning!" Eva smiled and bowed, "I'm afraid I'm still dazed from sleep," Meg smiled, "it's alright we were on our way to get breakfast," Eva smiled. "May I join?" Madame Giry cut in, "sure," the woman smiled at each other.
Erik woke in mid-day, when he reached over, the bed was empty and cold. "Evangeline?!" he called to the empty cavern, he rolled over to see a note, 'I went out to start work early, I wanted to make sure you got some sleep today, yesterday was the first time in awhile we went to bed at the same time... See you at night...
Eva'
Eva sighed, along with the rest of the chorus, she was tired of hearing Alice's voice. The girl was so pitchy that she sounded like she was screeching instead of singing. "I don't know why they put you in chorus," Eva smiled, "it's about looks and sex, Meg," Eva explained nonchalantly. Meg shook her head, "plus they think I'm a noble or something, so money," Meg looked shocked. "I thought you were of a higher class, I mean look at you, those dresses are so expensive looking!" Eva giggled, "no, they're just gifts," Meg smiled and Madame Giry gave a sour look at her coffee. "Exciting," Eva nodded and the girls smiled, "EVANGELINE!" Alice squealed, Meg and Eva looked at each other and ran to the voice. "Look what you did to my dress!" Eva looked at the cuts on the dress, "how can you prove that I did it? I've only been awake long enough to pour my coffee, also, why do you think it was me?" she smiled at Meg. Alice just huffed off, Erik watched Eva talk and sing a little bit, still angry that they gave her a chorus part. He headed back down to the lair to finish the surprise he had for Eva.
Rachel reached the opera house for the second time, as she looked down at the only weapon she had, a gun. For the first time in a long time, she thought of Richard, the man, she felt, took her sanity with his last breath.
"Rachel, what are you doing with that man?"
his voice rang in her head, "I SHOULD OF NEVER LOVED YOU!" BANG. The sound of a gun went of and she started the fire, Evangeline didn't know that her father died from a gunshot. 'He wanted to take away my pride! So I took his life and kept that evil daughter of his' Rachel sauntered her way into the opera house, the gun folded into a hidden pocket of her gown.
Eva was free to go, her ears finally able to heal, "Oh, Rachel," Eva froze on her way to the room, to go passed Victor's room, and hear her mother's name. "You're such a lovely woman," Victor's voice sounded, loving in the mst creepiest of ways, Eva looked through a crack in the door, to see a perverted image of Victor and Rachel in a loving embrace. A hand reached from the shadows and covered her mouth, pulling her away. It wasn't the loving face of Erik she saw but someone else...
Phillipe!
