Dominic stared out at the Parisian skyline, the wind whipping his hair around his pale, weary face.
Ever since he had been fired, he had been living like a pauper - the Vicomte had made sure nobody in Paris would hire Dominic. He had not seen Bonnie-Marie in weeks... in his new state of impoverishment, he felt he was unworthy to seek out her hand in marriage. He had also heard rumors of her involvement with another man, but he could not blame her.
Besides - he would not make her a widow.
He loved this Opera house and had spent his whole life here; this was a fitting enough place for the deed he was about to commit.
"Farewell, heartless city," he whispered, and took a step off the roof and fell into nothingness.

*Belladonna wandered out onto the roof, her golden hair whipping around her face prettily. She could have sworn she heard a splat, but shrugged it off. Probably a bird or something. She sat down, breathing in the crisp night air. Perhaps someone else would come up here, but she doubted it. Nobody normal would come up to the roof!*
((Oh, my dear sweet stupid Sue. And look, she hasn't even burst into song yet! I'm so proud.))

*Raoul climbed up to the roof.He walked over to the edge of the roof and leaned on a pillar, not noticing Belladonna.*

*Belladonna sighed quietly as she looked out over Paris, then softly began to sing a song her younger brother and his friends used to sing when herding...goats.*
Open the gates and seize the day Don't be afraid and don't delay Nothing can break us No one can make us Give our rights away Arise and seize the day
Now is the time to seize the day Send out the call and join the fray
Wrongs will be righted If we're united
Let us seize the day Friends of the friendless, seize the day Raise up the torch and light the way Proud and defiant We'll slay the giant Let us seize the day
Neighbor to neighbor Father to son One for all and all for one
Open the gates and seize the day Don't be afraid and don't delay Nothing can break us No one can make us Give our rights away
Neighbor to neighbor Father to son One for all and all for one

*Raoul turned and listened spellbound. Finally he decided to speak.* You have a fine voice, Miss.

*Belladonna turned around, a smile lighting up her tiny face as she hurried over to meet this new person. She curtsied to him, extending one of her little hands towards him.* Thank you so much, sir! I'm Belladonna. What's your name?

*Raoul kissed her hand and smiled charmingly.((I am patenting the charming smile.)).* Raoul de Changy. Have you thought about auditioning for the Opera, I have no doubt you would get a part straight away.

*Belladonna practically sparkled at his comliment.* It's so nice to meet you, Raoul! I want to try out, but I don't know where to go or anything. And I'm sure there are so many girls who are more talented then me! But I do need a job.

*Raoul shook his head.* Not many could rival your voice. Auditions and suchlike are held in the auditorium. I could have a word for you if you wish?. *He winked at her.* I do not speak up for many but I confess, your voice has enchanted me.

((This girl is practically radioactive.))
*Raoul looked at her curiously.* Tell me Belladonna, do you have a sweetheart? *He gazed at her unbashfully.* I am dazzled by your innocence. You remind me of someone I once knew... *Raoul looked out at the Paris lights.

((Of course she is. That's why I picked this icon.))
*Belladonna giggled lightly at the thought, not blushing at all.* Me, have a sweetheart? Of course not. I'm far too plain, and there weren't any boys up in the mountains. *She tugged at a lock of her silky blonde hair.* Do I remind you of your sweetheart, perhaps? *She managed to deliver this line innocently and with no deeper meaning.*

*Raoul looked at her incredulously.* You plain!. Don't speak such nonsense!. Any man would fall at his feet at your beauty!*He looked at her shocked that she could feel that way about herself.* I did not speak of a present sweetheart but one long,long past. Sweetheart! I have not one anymore!
((Just five,six or seven....))
