Phantom Of The Opera (Mystery Legends)

Upstairs

This melody is so hypnotic. It makes me want to sing.

Waiting for a good measure to start on, Evalina took a deep breath and began singing along with the organ.

It was as if she was one with the notes. Her soul felt as if it was taking flight.

"Un amore che era destinata ad essere. Un cuore che batte solo per voi. Si perga di ascoltare il mio grido e so che il mio amore 'e vero."

When the last note was streched, her voice echoed and the organ ceased playing.

A moment of silence.

What was that? Did I really sing that song? I don't even know this piece!

What freaked her out more was the meaning of the song's words.

A love that was meant to be. A heart that beats only for you. Hear my cry and know that my love is true.

Shaking off her fear, Evalina made her way up the stairs where she saw the entrance to the opera house.

Curious, she walked in, shinning the lantern on a huge, broken chandelier that laid upon the dusty, velvety seats.

The chadelier, the one that killed that lady.

Beyond the wreckage and old seats was a glorious stage.

The curtains were charred and ripped but were still intacted. The floor of the stage was stable, but it's once glossy look was now replaced with filth.

Its so dark. I have to be very careful.

Evalina walked slowly acrossed the stage taking in the damaged beauty.

While placing herself in the middle, she looked outward, as if an audience was waiting for her to sing.

Through the darkness, Evalina imagined the people applauding her.

She imagined that the chandelier was glistening in its rightful place.

She could see the vibrant colors of red, gold, and cream surrounding the whole theater.

"MORE!!"

The crowd shouted.

Just then, the sound of the organs notes snaked through the air.

As if wraping its heavinly measures around her neck, she felt the force of them trying to make her sing.

It felt like she was choking.

Between the notes and beats, she heard a demanding whisper:

Sing, my angel of music..... SING!!

With no control whatsoever, Evalina began to finish the song from earlier.

"Un amore che era destinata ad essere. Un cuore che batte solo per voi. Si perga di ascoltare il mio grido e so che il mio amore 'e vero. Ill mio tutto, pa mia voce!!! Mi amano il modo in cui ti amo. Sappiamo che vi sono per sempre mio e mi uccideranno se necessario. Dire! Lo vi amo! Dire!!"

Tears filled her eyes.

I will not say 'I love you'!

Fighting, both mentally and physicaly, Evalina thrashed and made every attempt to try and gain back control.

"NO!!"

With that, the organs keys were smashed, making the sound angry and out-of-tune.

The feeling of the music ceased to grip onto her throat.

Evalina's eyes opened.

No longer fid she see a glamorous theater.

Old, dusty, worn out, and darkness replaced the fantasy.

The silence made the next noise from behind the stage even more froghtening.

Trying to face the phantom again, Evalina ran towards the sound.

Expecting to find the hooded person standing, she instead tripped over somthing.

Saving her lantern from setting the place on fire again, she shinned it at what she tripped over.

"Is that..... A dead man!?"

*translation:
My everything, my voice!!! Love me the way I love you. Know that you are forever mine and I will kill if need be. Say it! I love you! Say it!!
