Erik, The Phantom Of The Opera

Chapter 11: The Letter

>>>>>>>> Pic Christine Daaè

"What is this?!" Daroga shouted. I was hiding in my usual spot, the bookshelf. In his hand was the letter.

A knock came from his door, "Enter!" Daroga said unamused. It was The Viscount.

"I heard you shout. Is everything alright?"

"Yes, I'm fine." Daroga tried waving him off.

"What's that?" Raoul pointed to the letter as if it looked different than any other letter. In submission Daroga gave The Viscount the letter. Slowly he read it. His facial expressions changing with every word.

"Who is this OG?"

"If I tell you, you would think me silly."

"Sir, this OG has upset you. So how could I think you silly?"

Daroga signed, sitting up in his chair, "it's the Opera Ghost." Raoul slowly sat adjacent to Daroga.

"As you read he is upset. If he doesn't get his way something horrible will happen. We can't lose any members and what he is suggesting Carlotta will surely leave." Why hasn't he found my other letter?

"Don't worry I will help you as much as I can Daroga."

"Thank you, Sir. I must ask you to leave while I sort things out."

"Of course." Raoul stood headed to the door,"Call on me when you have a idea." Daroga bowed his head as Raoul closed the door. Look in your book you goat! As if he heard me Daroga slowly opened his book to find my second note. Daroga sighed, "What am I to do with you?"

*********

A few hours later I heard Madame Giry call for the cast to go to the stage. Slowly they filled the stage some whispering to each other of why they where called for. I watched them above in my box. Hm. With a bang the back doors closed, Daroga and Raoul following.

"Hello everyone sorry to call on you." Daroga spoke. Carlotta stood in front with her arms crossed.

"Under a special request we will be showing 'Monticello'." The ballet and chorus girls all whispered to each other with excitement.

"Who will be Princess Giovanna!?" Meg asked stepping forward.

"Of course Carlotta." Carlotta's mother said gesturing to Carlotta. Daroga and Raoul looked at each other.

"Our special request also has a cast request." Daroga spoke his eyes scanning through the whole cast. He seemed nervous.

"Which is?" Carlotta asked her arms still crossed.

"They have asked for Ms. Daaè to be the Princess." As Raoul spoke almost everyone gasped.

"Hm. Let her have her chance." Carlotta smirked, walking off the stage her mother trotting after her. Daroga whipped his brow.

"We will give you the script today. The show will be performed in three weeks." Daroga said handing the scripts to Madame Giry.

"You are getting the lead role! I'm so jealous!" Meg excitedly said bouncing over to Christine.

"I can't believe it." Christine spoke looking at the script then back at Meg. Smile my angel, you have got your dream. Smile for me. Before my eyes Christine smiled making me smile as well.
