Six years pass since the death of Frollo and his evil reign and within those six years happiness was brought up to the people of Paris. A new archdeacon was here to take care of the church since the first one died of old age. Esmeralda and Phoebus are happy with their child, Zephyr. Well with you and Clopin, you have two kids, a son, (sn), and a daughter,(Dn).((author's note if you want to name your son after your dead brother you can if you want)) They were a handful but you love them dearly and will do anything for them. Of course Zephyr and your two children are best of friends. In a couple of days the festival of love or saint valentine's will be coming soon, so everyone is helping to set up.  The children are with you as you help set up the booths that are gonna be there.

There's music in the marketplace

The streets have come alive

The town is in a tizzy

It's a busy buzzing hive

Lifting up some boxes, You heard Clopin singing about the holiday coming up, you couldn't help but laugh and hummed along.

There's cause for this commotion

And emotional display

We just can't wait to celebrate

Our favorite holiday

"Le Jour D'Amour, Your song is in the air,"Clopin jumped off from where he was at as the people were setting up where the people will proclaim their true love's name and kiss.  Quasimodo joined him on the ground as he was finished with some of the decorations.

What magic will you make for us?

What promise will you share?

Clopin grabbed Quasi as they danced around in a circle dropping the flowers they were handing out, "That golden bell Sweet La Fidele Will soon be ringing clear! The best of all the festivals Le Jour D'Amour is here"

 Shaking you head, you continued your work while everyone was dancing along to the song, your children darted off to dance with the other children. As you were putting boxes of merchandise down, you were spurn around to meet face to face with your husband Clopin. You saw the flower in his mouth and giggled. " Oh Clopin, must you do this every time?"

"Of course I must, you are my wife and I must entertain you in anyway" He said take the flower out and putting in your hair. Clopin captured your lips in a sweet kiss and well the children were watching with their friend Zephyr.

"Yuck" The children cried out before running towards the church to see Quasi.You pulled away before snuggling into his chest and gave a contented sigh.

"This is gonna be the best festival of all, I just know it" You exclaimed feeling happy to be in your husband's arms. " Nothing is gonna ruin this festival at all"  Before you could kiss your husband once more, a circus coming into Paris interrupted everything. " A circus here in Paris?" You seemed a bit suspicious about this sudden circus coming in as if something wasn't right about it.

" Come, mes amis! As part of the Festival D'Amour, a circus has come to Paris!" Clopin laughed happily as the children of Paris crowded around one of the carts.

'Hmmm something isn't right, as if this circus is nothing but a scam.... looks like I need to put my assassin skills to the test once more.. Gotta asked Pheobus if I can do a night duty shift for tonight' you eyed suspiciously at the circus leader, Sarousch. ' There's something not right about this circus and I'm going to find out what.'

"My dear is there something the matter," Clopin asked snapping reality back to you.

"Nothing is wrong love, I was just thinking,"You replied quickly. Both of you continued to watched as the kids and their parents walked towards to the location of the circus. "i'm going to get cleaned up and go to my brother's grave." You gave Clopin a hug and a sweet kiss before leaving for the graveyard. Upon reaching your brother's grave, you placed the single rose that was in your hair on top of the cold stone. " Hello (Bn), its been a long time since I was here... Sorry I wasn't able to visit as much as you wanted.... I miss you a lot you know.... I told stories to my kids about you, the fearless uncle who help save the gypsies.. hahaha I wish you were here" You felt tears forming and flowing down.

 I remember days when you'd hold me in your arms

"Everything's okay," you'd whisper as I cried

You protected me, kept me from feeling the pain

And when I looked up, you wiped away all my tears


The memories of past came back and you remembered the times when the only love you really had was from your brother. Your parents died when you were very young by the hands of Frollo. Even though Frollo is dead, his handiwork left many scars on your heart and mind.


You held my hand till the dawn

You showed me that the world still will go on

Taught me there was so much out there to learn


Your brother was your only hope as a child, showing that the world was an evil place to live, but a joyous place filled with light and hope. He taught you the rest of the lesson of being an assassin. He was your world as a child, teaching you about life and love.


Well, I've grown since then; I've gone through trials of my own

When you left I thought I'd never make it through

But I'm not alone, don't have to fear the unknown

Cause you still live on — I feel your spirit in me


But when he died that day, everything was lost, your world was crumbling before you. Until a new light came in and it was Clopin, the one who taught you what love from another person felt. What it feels to be alive. Now your own children are part of your world as well, filling it with happiness and laughter.


And I hope that you'll look on and be proud

Of all that I've learned, and all of the things I've done

You've made me into the woman I am today


You smiled at his gravestone, sighing happily, " Thank you" With this being said, a gentle wind touch your cheek. It felt like your brother was here saying that he was happy and proud of you. The tears formed once more and you cried out.


So thanks for everything you did for me

For the love you shared

And for being there


Crying hard, you fall down on your knees on the dirt, " Thank you.... Thank you Big brother for everything." As you continued to cry, you couldn't feel the hand the was on your head, rubbing it softly but you did hear the words, " I am so proud of you my little (Fn). I am happy that you live you life that you wanted to. I'll be hear watching over you and your family, always and forever" and with that the ghost spirit of your brother and his voice disappeared.


I will not forget the wisdom you've given me

And forever you will always stay in my heart...

In my heart...

In my heart


Your eyes widen at the words and you smiled happily knowing that your life as well as your family will be in happiness. " Goodbye big brother, Ill come back soon" Getting up from your spot, you wiped your face to get rid of the tears and dusted your clothes to remove any of the dirt. "Good bye." You left the graveyard with a smile on your face knowing that the future will hold a good fortune for you.
