Summary: Erik lets his feelings a little loose after a loved one dies.



Once again I had proved my stealth. Upon my return from Persia I had brought home a companion, I had stolen the Shah’s most treasured feline. She was a pretty little thing with fur the color of sand and amazingly rare bright blue eyes and a collar with diamonds to match. She had seemed to taken a liking to me while I had stayed at the palace which was why I took her. I usually have no fondness for animals but she was the first to not stray from my side. I had gained a very loyal companion.

Unlike my original thoughts Ayesha had taken a liking to the cellars of the opera house. Very often I would find a present or two of the vermin nature from her. She was an excellent rat chaser. She never left my side and upon Christine’s arrival Ayesha made sure it was know that she did not like her presence. Her jealousy was often made known by a bite or scratch to show that attention from her was waning.

Ayesha was the only one that ever looked past the outside of things. Animals seldom seem to care what one looks like. I never knew that my feelings for this simple creature could be so great. Knowing that whenever I turned around that she would be there gave me such a wonderful feeling. I knew that someone depended on me and couldn’t live without my survival. The loss of her is driving me mad. Seeing her body lying there limp and lifeless broke my heart. She was more then just a pet she was my love and her diamond collar will be that constant reminder.
