If you think it's the way out, continue through and close the door
behind you at #7:
If you think it's a trap of Erik's, shut the door and continue on:
"I think it's a trap," you say, quickly shutting the door. "Let's
look around some more. We can always come back."
"Okay," Michael says. The three of you search until sunrise.
You can't believe the time. Michael is having a hard time staying awake;
you forget that he hasn't had any sleep after doing a taxing show like
Phantom. Tatiana has ceased her jealousy or has at least put it to the
side and let's you help her support him. Things get worse as the sun gets
higher. Michael collapses and you both try to wake him. The little fairy
is in tears, though you think he's just sleeping. You tell her to wait
with him while you try the door again. She nods tearfully and you make
your way to the door. You try the knob; it won't budge. You pull and kick
and scream at the door until the last of your strength has diminished.
Barely able to stumble back to Michael, you fall next to the fairy girl.
Then you witness something peculiar. As Tatiana watches over Michael, she
begins to cough; her strength seems to fail her and she falls to the ground.
She makes a feeble attempt to get back up, but can't. She lies there, motionless,
her light growing dimmer and dimmer until finally it goes out all together.
You feel guilt tug at your heart and feel somehow responsible for what
has happened. Exhaustion overcomes you and you vow to go get help for Michael
just as soon as you take a little nap. You close your eyes and slip into
blissful darkness. You never open them again.
The End
