Dawn was apporaching soon, still sitting at the same spot as you couldnt go to sleep. You watched Paris from the bell tower. You heard movement behind you and saw Quasimodo moving about. "um Good morning" you said getting up from your spot. " Sorry about staying over night, I just need some place to think." Quasimodo walked over and squeezed your hand.

" I have an extra cloak please do take as a token of your kindness to me" He said giving you the extra cloak.

"Thank you" you said as you took it from his hands and wore it. " I must take my leave and.." you closed your mouth as heart started to break once more. Quasimodo gave a sad smile knowing what you were about to say. " But after it is done, I'll be leaving. I can't stay any longer since my life will be in danger if I were to be caught."

" Be safe" you heard him say as you left the bell tower and out the cathedral. Walking in a fast past, you saw a huge crowd, getting closer to whatever they were seeing, your eyes went into shock as you saw your brother standing there with a noose round his neck. You wanted to put ur hand out and scream out his name but you couldn't, your heart told you not to do it. You quickly cover your mouth to muffle the sobs once more. You continue to watch as Judge Frollo gotten on the stage where (Bn) and the other two gypsy that were with him.

" This is the traitor that help these gypsy vermin escape and now they will face the penalty of death" Frollo announced staring at the crowd with much hate in his eyes. You stared at your brother hoping he will notice you. He did. He stared at you with a sadden look but he gave you the biggest grin to tell you it will be alright and don't be afraid as tears ran down from his face. Uncovering your mouth, you mouth the words I love you as he did the same. You heard a quick snap and there in front of you were the hanging bodies of the gypies and your brother. Backing up from the site, you ran towards your home knowing that Frollo be would also looking for you while looking for Esmeralda as well. Getting to your room, you quickly stuffed a few things in a sack. Grabbing the wooden box, you left the house not until you set it ablaze

" There now try to find my tracks you son of a bitch."  You decided to hide to underneath paris, the old catacombs more to be percise. (pn) cried as he landed down on your shoulder. " Alright (pn) shall we visit (Bn) before heading underground?" (pn) cried in agreement. You quickly left for the cathedral, as you got in you went to look for archdeacon. You finaly found him and the corpse of your brother in a coffin. " Archdeacon"

"My dear child, heaven blazes where were you," He asked letting you come closer to the coffin.

"I-I came to see him one last time, I wont be here for any much longer" You said grabbing your original dagger before placing in in your brother's cold hands. " I miss him"

" I know my dear but never the lest he is safe and is probably proud of you" The archdeacon said as he closed the coffin.

"Thank you but I shall be taking my leave, good bye" You left without another word and quickly left. 

-Time skip brought you by uh idk :|-

You gotten in the old catacombs as kept walking with (pn) still perched on your shoulder. " Where should we camp out for the night, I rather not be sleeping in ankle deep sewage." you continue down the path you were on until your feet hit stone floors. You failed to notice you were breathing heavily, after a few more steps your world faded into nothingness. Last thing you could remember was hearing your (pn) cry and mutlitudes of voices. You woken up to a nice serene place, a beautiful lake with willow tress surrounding it. You heard a familiar voice calling out to you. Turning around standing was your brother smiling at you. With tears streaming down your face, you quickly ran over to him. His arms were open wide as you dove right into them crying. " I miss you, Why'd did you have to go!"

"I'm sorry for leaving you, I'm so sorry. But rest now, big brother got you." ( Bn) said holding you like you were a sall child. you rested your head on his chest listening to his heartbeat.

Go to sleep,
Rest upon your bed,
May this night bring dreams to your head

This lullaby reminded about your parents and how they both use to lulably to lull you to sleep. It was peaceful just you and (bn) being here together. There was no more pain, no more death and no more sadness.

Hear my voice,
Never let it die,
Keep this lullaby

You were getting sleepy hearing this lullaby, you snuggled even further trying to catch whatever warmth (Bn) had.

Soon the sun shall set on,
Long it will be till dawn,
Never from you will I be gone

You were nodding off looking at your brother with tired eyes and you saw a smile upon his face as he was hugging you tightly.

Carry on,
Rid this world of fear,
Now the time is near,
Peace will soon reign here

You have fallen asleep in his arms lightly snoring, "Dont worry (Fn) I'll be here in your dreams whenever you need me or when you feel lonely. I'll sing for you when you get scared. I'm always with you" The world once again went dark. With a jolt, you woken up breathing pretty heavily.

"Was that a dream or was it real," you questioned yourself as you checked your suroundings. You noticed that everything was wood and you were somebody's bed. Sighing, you put your hand on your forehead until you felt a material on it, it felt like bandages. ' What in the world happend, did I faint and hit my head on something hard,' when you pondered in your thoughts you heard very loud talking outside. Getting out of bed, you went towards the door and opened it. You squinted your eyes from the sudden light but as your eyes adjusted you noticed a lot of gypies were everywhere. You stared in awe and question were going in your head. Where were you exactly?

" Ah It seems the assassin has awoken from her slumber," a familiar voice said.
