The Phantom of the Chaos Opera

Moonlight Chaos opened up one eye. How did she get back into her room? The last she remembered was the Phantom..........ah, now she remembered. The Phantom had brought her back into her room late in the middle of the night. Moonlight tried to remember what had happened. The Phantom had taken her to the catacombs of the Opera House, his lair of darkness. He wanted her to fall in love with him, but he was too afraid to let her see his face. All she could see was his eyes, those eyes that seemed to glow even in daylight. They always seemed to follow her. Moonlight used her magic to pull the blankets over her head. And she tried to fall asleep. By the time she did, she could sense he was there. She wanted to find him, she could hear his voice. Come to me, come to me Moonlight Chaos. Moonlight followed the sound of his voice. Eventually she found him standing in front of her. He had a large dark cape covering most of his tall body, and his mask was still on. The Phantom flew towards her and wrapped his arms around her, Moonlight could feel his claw running through her mane. He caressed her face, and moved his paw across her body. Moonlight closed her eyes, all she wanted to feel was his gentle touch. "You belong to me......." He whispered. Slowly Moonlight leaned her head up against him, letting him take full control over her. "Trust me......" Once again Moonlight could see his eyes glow in the dark. Her trance was so deep that she couldn't think about anything else. She was in love with the Phantom.

Ink Illustration went into Moonlights room. She had been asleep almost all day, and she was going to miss practice for the next performance. He found her still asleep, but for some reason she was curled up. And she looked very calm, he could hear her sighing. He gently shook her. Moonlight groaned and turned onto her side. Ink shook her again. "Moonlight wake up!" Moonlight slowly opened her eyes. "Ink, what are you doing?" Ink Illustration smiled. "You've been asleep almost all day, you have to go to practice." Moonlight sighed. "Alright, I'm going." Ink gently helped her get out of her bed and wrapped his hoof around her. Moonlight glared at him. "What are you doing?" Ink sighed. "Just noticing how pretty you look." He put his other hoof around her neck. "Stop touching me." Moonlight said. Ink looked confused. "What's wrong?" Moonlight backed up. "I just don't want you this close to me." Ink smiled. "Why, not used to getting this much attention?" Moonlight shook her head. "No, it's not that. Can I just get ready? Alone?" Ink nodded. "Oh, yes! Sorry." Ink turned to leave. But before he opened the door he turned towards Moonlight for a moment. "Were you having any nightmares?" Moonlight sighed. "No Ink, why do you ask?" Ink shrugged. "No reason, you just looked like something or someone was doing something to you." Moonlight bit her lip. "No, I didn't have any nightmares, now if you'll excuse me. I need to get ready." Ink nodded. "Of course." Ink walked out of her room and shut the door. He closed his eyes for a moment, and he could almost see something glowing. It was like two eyes were staring at him. Ink quickly opened his eyes and shook his head. "What was that?" He asked himself. Ink Illustration assumed his mind was just playing tricks on him and walked away. While Moonlight was getting ready for practice her mind was flooded with thoughts about the Phantom. She knew that Cotton Feathers' mother knew a bit about him. And supposedly Jospeph was always telling stories about him. Why did the Phantom want her? She wanted answers and she was determined to get them.

After Moonlight had finished with practice she went to find Silk Wings. But she found that Silk Wings was busy. Moonlight could hear whispering and discovered it was Joseph going on and on about the legendary Phantom. "It is said that he lives deep within the catacombs of the Opera House. Where he works on dark masterpieces. Some say that this mysterious ghost once had a name, Discord." Moonlight's eyes widened. The Phantoms name was Discord? Most of what Joseph had said was partially true. Everything else she continued to hear was of how he looked. Moonlight didn't believe any of it. Joseph described the Phantom as a hideous monster. Moonlight had seen him and he looked nothing like a monster. Sure at times he could be a bit terrifying, but that was only when he was mad. The Phantom could be very gentle and he didn't look bad at all. Most of what Joseph was saying was made up. After hearing nothing but made up information Moonlight wanted to find Silk Wings. This time she didn't look quite as busy. "Excuse me Silk Wings may I ask you something?" Silk Wing smiled. "Of course dear, what is it?" Moonlight took a deep breath. "I was wondering if you could tell me something about the Phantom of the Opera." When Silk Wings heard this she looked a little nervous. "Listen Moonlight, if you see him you must be VERY careful. Do you understand?" Moonlight nodded. "Yes, I understand." Silk Wings sighed. "Good. There are some things that are better off left alone." Moonlight nodded again and slowly walked away, what was so scary about the Phantom? Joseph had no problem talking about him, even though most of what he had said wasn't true. Maybe the only reason she felt this way was because she was the only once that had come so close in contact with the Phantom. For some reason Moonlight Chaos wanted the Phantom more and more. She could always sense him, his eyes always seemed to follow her. His voice would always stay with her. No matter what she did she could not get the Phantom, Discord out of her mind.
