chapter 3


The trio of fleck, squelch and gangle, leading the the twins oritel and marion in a circular pattern as they appear to be climbing up, up, up through an impossibly high series of staircases until they arrive at the Aerie. The trio lead the twins high above. Oritel and marion was wondering who these three were. they were happy to see them again. while the three of the trio were smiling at the twins. The master wanted them to bring them to him. They didn't know why the master was wondering about the twins. but they were sure cute. they were spitting an image of their mother. and someone else they couldn't put their finger on.

"Who are you? Where are you taking us?" asked oritel

"I am Miss Fleck." said fleck

"The Mighty Squelch!" said squelch

"Dr Gangle. master of ceremonies!" said gangle

"At your service."

Oritel and marion smiled at the three of them. They were cool and kind of neat to him. They seemed very close and that was a nice thing. even though they still didn't get the answer they wanted and wondered what and where they were taking them. gangle smiled and wondered who the hell the kids looked like that made them think. he needed to take the twins to the master. squelch was trying to figure out who the twins looked like other than his mother.

"And... His." said fleck

"Come along and follow us." said gangle

"Come and follow faster." said fleck

"Come along and follow us." said squelch

"Come and meet the master. Hurry up and follow us, hurry if you care to... Soon the dark will swallow us, follow if you dare to..!"

They arrive now at the top of the park, a place of mannequins and masks, where, in a corner erik is at work on a bizarre table, out of which seems to grow half a human being with five arms. This is a magical construct of erik, designed to produce his music. Oritel and marion was looking around in wonder. This place is a wonderful place he had never ever seen before. while erik smiled to himself. it seemed the twins enjoyed the place that he designed. He was not like the bastard who got his beloved drunk and drugged and had his way with her. he was told by szayel what had happened. and that they were not really married, that they were only pretending to fool everyone that they are.

"Is this where Mr Y lives?" asked oritel and marion

"This where he works." said gangle

"Step lively, children." said fleck

"He is waiting." said squelch

"What is this place?" asked marion

erik smiled as he stopped his work. He felt connected to these children for some reason. He didn't know why and wondered what it was that the boy and girl had with him. but for now, he was going to entertain the children and make them happy. they looked like his bloom so much. They have her looks. and who else looks as well. oritel and marion was looking around as if they were a fat kid in a candy store. they were looking everywhere around them. they wanted to touch things and see what they would do. but they knew that would be rude. but they were tempted, oh so tempted. erik smiled even more seeing the wonder in the boy and girl's eyes that is the same as their mothers.

"This is my realm, illusion's domain, where music and beauty and artifice reign. Go, look around while I finish my work." said erik

"can we?" asked oritel

Oritel and marion went over to the piano and wanted to play. they didn't know if they would be yelled at. but they were like their older brother. Yes, they knew about their older siblings in the future. their brother Tamaki is just like them and enjoyed making music. and as well their loved the violin. erik was in shock from what he was asked. The twins wanted to play the piano. now they are not like raoul now. unless they got it from their mother. their mother is an angel with the piano and violin. but he was going to have to observe when it came down to the twin's music. Oritel and marion begins to play. A simple yet eerie tune.

"What's this?" asked erik

"Just a song in our head." said oritel and marion

"Go on..." said erik, oritel and marion started to play again.

"we think it's beautiful. Beautiful, beautiful notes. Beautiful, beautiful sounds, don't you agree? It's beautiful!" sang oritel and marion

erik blinked and was mesmerized by the twins music and voice. it was interesting. as he continued to listen to the twins play. while oritel and marion was stuck in their own world as they continued to play. while they were hoping mister y would love their music. they were told by szayel not to ask questions about his mask. while erik was getting this sick feeling that there was something he should have been noticing since he first met the twins. while the three in the background just had a oh shit moment and figured out who the boy and girl looked like. They are the master kids. They looked to the master and wondered if he had figured it out yet since they just did.

"These kids.." said erik

"So very beautiful!" sang oritel and marion

"This music..." said erik

"Music that comes uncontrolled..." sang oritel and marion

Oritel and marion was so lost in their own world, not even noticing that there was anything going on around them. as if they were about to be revealed to someone. While the three-watching figured out who children that twins was. while erik was in shock at what was going on. and having a funny feeling. This was unexpected. his bloom was going to be explaining something to him. because he had a feeling this children is his children. while he continued listening to ortiel and marion. and was letting everything go through his head on what was going on. and what their music was telling him. if they are his kids that means that bastard cant gets no one knocked up. but still how dare he touch what is his.

"they plays like me..." said erik

"Haunting and lovely and bold..." sang oritel and marion

"they are just ten years old... TEN YEARS OLD! my god!" said erik

erik signals to the trio, and fleck runs to a lever and pulls down a beautiful prototype of the half bird/half creature she performs in her act. She, herself, is transfixed by its beauty as is the twins. Pulling oritel and marion off the piano bench, erik questions them. he and bloom was going to be having a very long talk when they see each other. while he was going to make it clear that the fop was not going to have his son and daughter. He was going to make sure that he was going to get to know them. but right now, he was going to see something. He wanted them to see his face. even though he had a feeling that the boy and girl was going to be spooked. but its best to get it out of the way sooner or later.

"Have you ever yearned to go past the world you think you know? Been in thrall to the call of the beauty underneath? Have you let it draw you in, past the place where dreams begin? Felt the full breathless pull of the beauty underneath? When the dark unfolds its wings, do you sense the strangest things? Things no -one would ever guess. Things mere words cannot express?" asked erik

"yes" said oritel and marion

erik signals to gangle, who reaches over the piano and pulls away a cloth, revealing a chandelier made almost entirely of beautiful heads. As if by magic, the heads sing an ethereal accompaniment as the boy and girl watches in wonder. erik signals now to sqeulch, who brings from the background a magnificent figure of a warrior, and when the boy and girl is close, the figure seems to come to life frighteningly, but the boy and girl continues to be both brave and utterly enchanted by the fabulous creatures everywhere. Oritel and marion was in awe at everything that was around them. they were in heaven from everything around them. It was like what their mother always wanted to do. but uncle didn't let her do what she wanted. and Aunt Christine as well. They hated her the most.

"Do you find yourself beguiled by the dangerous and wild? Do you feed on the need for the beauty underneath? Have you felt your senses surge and surrender to the urge? And been hooked as you looked at the beauty underneath? When you stare behind the night, can you glimpse its primal might, might you hunger to possess? Hunger that you can't repress." said erik

"Yes! It seems so beautiful! So strange yet beautiful! Everything's just as you say! " said oritel and marion

"And they are so beautiful... Perhaps to beautiful. What I suspect cannot be... And yet somehow we both see the very same way!" said erik

Ortiel and marion was like a fat kid in a candy store with everything going on around them. and all sorts of things around them. they take the lead, pulling erik to them in excitement. erik was in shock at what was going on. it seemed that he might have a kids. he didn't even know about. well, it would be kind of his fault since he did leave before she woke up. oh, how he was feeling like shit if he was going to find out that he left his beloved with child. oritel and marion was smiling brightly as they eyed everything around them. This was the best day of their life. Well besides when they were learning their magical powers and fair powers that is. They did that when uncle was not around. they never wanted to leave this place. they felt at home here. it seemed that mister y understood them, and they wanted to remain with him.

"Is there music in your head? Have you followed where it led? And been graced with a taste of the beauty underneath? Does it fill you every sense? Is it terribly intense? Tell us you need it too, need the beauty underneath!" said oritel and marion

"When it lifts it's voice and sings, don't you feel amazing things? Things you know you can't confess. Things you thirst for nonetheless?" asked erik and oritel and marion

Oritel and marion lies on the piano reaching up to the magical singing heads as erik stares at him in disbelief. he was looking at the twins and was still in shock. He was not sure how to think about this. There was just so much going on. and right now, he was not expecting this. while he needed to hear it from his bloom that he is they are his children. Yes, he would feel like shit knowing that he left her knocked up. and the time he could have had with his children. oh no wonder why she was pissed off when she saw him. well other than the making love to her and leaving her. Now it makes sense she was pregnant, and she had to find her way around that. and that is why szayel did what he had done.

"It's all so beautiful!" said oritel and marion

"Can it be?" asked erik

"Almost too beautiful!" said oritel and marion

"Do you see what I see?" asked oritel and marion and erik

The trio was watching on in awe at the three of them. father and son and daughter. it took a long time to figure out that the twins was his. but right now, they knew that the master and mistress was going to need to have a talk. Well, the talk on why he never knew about his children. erik was swallowing the lump in his throat. The twins was so beautiful. so much like him and his mother. now that he looked at it, they have his looks as well. but not the deformity of his face. but bloom has a lot to say when he sees her again. yes, he was angry that she hasn't told him yet. but then again, she didn't probably know how to tell him that this was his children that he left her with.

"Heavenly!" said oritel and marion

"To him, it's beautiful… My world is beautiful!" said erik

"How can this be what it seems?" said ortiel and marion

"All of my most secret dreams, somehow set free!" said erik and oritel and marion

Oritel and marion was running around looking at everything. and touching everything. as they was in complete awe that this even existed. while erik watched the beautiful children. The fair prince and princess of sparks run around like they were having fun. yep this is his kids. he just needed to have bloom confirm it to him. while the trio was looking at the father and son and daughter and smiled that this was even going on. the master has been alone for so long and now he has the woman of his dreams back. and a son and daughter as well. they never even though the master even had sex. They hated the giry's they were awful. always wanting money and wanting the master to marry that girl. Yes, she performs but she pushed herself onto the master. and she didn't even deserve him. She only wanted him for his money.

"You can feel it..." said erik

"Yes!" said oritel and marion

"Come closer..." said erik

"Yes!" said oritel and marion

"You've no fear of the beauty underneath..." said erik

"Ah!" said oritel and marion

"You can face it," said erik

Oritel marion was happy that this existed, they never wanted to leave. they were hoping that this man was their father. They wanted this sort of life. but they knew it would be too good to be true if they could have it. while erik was thinking of showing his little fairy children his face. It would be best to get it out of the way. they would soon accept it. Yes, it would be a shock at first. but he knew his son and daughter would sooner or later get past it. but for now, he needed to get to the point where he was comfortable to show his face. while his bloom shied away at first but didn't take long for her to accept it. but they started out as friends. She was so persistent, and he loved her from the start he just didn't realize it.

"Yes!" said oritel and marion

"You see through to the beauty underneath! To the splendor!" said erik

"And the splendor!" said oritel and marion

"And the glory!" said erik

"Glory!" said oritel and marion

"To the truth of the beauty underneath." said erik

"The beauty underneath!" said oritel and marion

erik rushed over and embraced oritel and marion. he was so happy to know he accepted this sort of life. It is the life he would want for them. to be themselves. and that is all he wanted for his children. but he knew that madam giry has been wanting him to hook up with her daughter and marry her. one time he woke up with meg in bed with him. but he knew that she didn't do anything to him because she was just about to do it to him. He nearly fired her for it. but madam giry pleaded with him saying give her another chance. but he knew better. he been keeping an eye on that little bitch. his penis is only for his bloom. She is the only one who gets to use that part of him.

"You'll accept it!" said erik

"Yes!" said oritel and marion

"Let me show you the beauty underneath." said erik

"The beauty underneath!" said oritel and marion

"To the splendor!" said erik

Oritel and marion was wondering if their mother was into this sort of thing. they knew she wanted to decorate like this. and invented things. but she was not able to do it. because uncle always smashed everything and made her stop it. oritel and marion was wondering if their mother would ever be free for herself from their uncle. they knew their uncle was supposedly their father. but they thought szayel more of their father since he accepted them more than their uncle.

"Splendor!" said oritel and marion

"And the glory!" said erik

"And the glory!" said oritel and marion

"To the truth of the beauty underneath! Let me show you the beauty under." said erik

erik pulls away the mask. Oritel and marion beholds erik's face and screams in terror. The moment is shattered between father and son and daughter. erik turns quickly away, hiding his face. oritel and marion turns and runs... straight into the arms of bloom and szayel. bloom sighed and had a feeling on what had happened. and she has a feeling that she was going to be explaining to erik that he is their father. szayel sighed and knew erik showed his face. oritel and marion didn't understand and would understand sooner or later. but bloom needed to explain to erik that oritel and marion is their father. while oritel and marion has their heads in bloom and szayel stomach. they didn't know what to think about what they have seen. but they didn't understand how someone could look like that. How could their mother be friends with someone like that. but then again, they was taught not to judge as well. Fleck and szayel takes them by the hands, and, with the other two, leads oritel and marion away. Now erik and bloom are alone. He has put his mask back on.

"I'm so sorry. Please, forgive them. they meant no harm." said bloom

"How could you think I wouldn't guess?" asked erik

"What do you mean...?" asked bloom

"How could you think I wouldn't know?" asked erik

"Oh shit." said bloom

"Do you have something to confess?" asked erik

"Please, don't make me..." said bloom

"I want the truth, right now, if so..!" demanded erik

erik grabbed bloom by the throat as she grabbed his arm. he has every right to be pissed off at her. but she had every right to be angry at him. He was the one who left that night and left her with his children. not that she didn't mind. but it broke her heart that he did what he had done. bloom swallowed hard and knew it was time for him to know. as she turned to look at his face. she could take him down if she wanted to. and fight him off. but she was not going to do that. It was not the time for that. He has every right to know he is the father of oritel and marion. It was time for the truth to come out. while she sighed. erik was watching her and wondered what she was going to do. Is she going to tell him the truth or not. but he saw no fear in those gem-like eyes of hers.

"Once upon another time, you went off and left me alone. But that's not all you did... You left me with a son and daughter. Ever since that other time, I wish, how I wish, you'd have known! I kept the secret hid, The secret my fake marriage forbid. What else could I have done? Just love..." said bloom

"A son and daughter..." said erik

"Just live..." said bloom

"My son and daughter...!" said erik

"Just give what I could give, and take what little I deserve..." said bloom

bloom was trying to comfort him as much as she could. But she knew oritel and marion cut him deep for what he had done. She raised them better. they needs to know the horrors that she has seen. Yes, she was shocked the first time he showed her his face. well, it was her who put kido on him and snagged his mask. but she accepted it after she got used to it. it didn't make him ugly. he is still sexy as hell to her. but for right now she needed to have a chat with her son and daughter. they were going to know how she was not happy with them for how they treated poor erik. they was going to see that his face is not a bad thing. She was hoping szayel was giving them the lecture of a lifetime. maybe show them his other form.

"Forgive me. they sees me and shuns me as you did once Take them now, take them and go! Go now, be free! But swear one thing to me they will never, ever know!" said erik

"I swear it Believe me You know you have my word And I swear this music won't remain unheard This music your music will live again! One last time just as I swore!" said bloom

"And soul to soul we will once more be whole!" said erik and bloom

"When I hear you sing!" said erik

"Once more!" said bloom

bloom grabbed erik and kissed him deeply to let him know she still loved him. as she picked up her music and left to go and give her son and daughter a lecture. She was not going to be putting up with her son and daughter for how they treated their father. but they didn't know he was their father yet. but she was going to tell them either way. but erik didn't want her to tell them. erik sighed as he ran his fingers over his lips. her sweet lips kissed him. oh, how hard he was right now. but not the time to be thinking about how horny he is. He now knows she still loved him. He changed his mind he wanted his beloved fairy princess and his son and daughter to remain with him. He just needed to deal with her brother. and the man who thinks he is the father of his son and daughter. because he thought he could get his sister knocked up by drugging her. in which he was not happy about how Raoul did that.

"From out of ugliness, such light! From out of darkness, such a flame! In them my wrongness is made right... And yet they loathes me, just the same... So let them shun me in disgust! Let them flee this cursed face! If I must hide from them, I must... Yet shall they will be my saving grace... For bloom… My bloom… If it's true I've no reason to live, then, bloom... Then our son and daughter shall have all I can give ah, bloom! All I create on this earth, all that I'll never be worth, all shall be theirs!" said erik

erik said in triumph, he turns, and vanishes upstage. So, he was able to go and plan out his next stage of how to get his family to remain here. He was going to have his family. and hope to have more children with her. this time to watch her swell with his child as he watches her grow and be there for her when she gives birth to his next children. what he missed out the last time with oritel and marion. as he smiled and needed to go and relieve himself from his giant boner. His a bloom knew how to make him feel things that no other has ever made him feel. Suddenly, out of the depths on the edges of the Aerie comes madam giry twisted, furious. She had seen it all. Behind her, in the shadows, is meg.

"Ten long years, and he casts us aside! Ten whole years, this is how we're repaid! Ten dark years of toil and tears and now what we worked for will go to those brats! All our hopes were at last in our grasp! All the dreams and the plans that we laid! Everything is vanishing… And we get discarded, rejected, reviled! All the bonds in between us, now torn! All the love that we gave him, forsworn! All would be ours…. If those bastards had never been born!" said madam giry

madam giry was furious and now she needed to make up what to do next. She didn't even know that meg was there listening as well. It was as if she was going to see what was going on and why she was pushed to the side. even though she wasn't pushed to the side. She was never going to be a main event. madam giry left to go and plot out what to do next. as Meg rushed in after her mother. but she stopped. then she followed her. while she didn't know what to think about everything right now. but she needed to go and think about what she had just learned. the master and bloom has children. it was something she was not expecting. but for now, she was going to ignore it and go and do what she needed to do.

to be continued
