Its been a few months since Frollo admitted his love for me. We arranged for marriage soon. I looked at my wedding dress hanging in the room. I thought for a moment about our future together. I looked out the window and decided to go down stairs. Frollo was gone anyhow for some of his Judge things which didn't bother me. I had time to stay here and think more about the wedding. 

We planned for it towards fall when it started to get cooler and the leaves were changing. We sent out the invites already so everyone would know when to join us. My wedding dress is long white and lacy. Frollo insisted I get the best dress that there is. So he had it made by expensive seamstress. I smiled at the thought of being Mrs. Frollo. I will be in a few months which is exciting. I stepped outside seeing the villagers doing their normal things.  

I walked down the steps and decided to go for a short walk. The village seemed calm right now. Everyone did their own part to make the village functional. I said a few hellos to people I knew. The people here seemed so nice and welcoming. I smiled happily and continued my relaxing walk. I came near the richer part of Paris. Where the bigger homes are and where the nobles lived. 

I stopped hearing a scream. A terrified crying scream. I froze not wanting to move an inch forward. I fell to the side a little when two officers pushed passed me roughly to follow the scream. My frozen eyes followed the offices run into a nice mansion. I wanted to turn to run but my feet kept me frozen to the ground. I wanted to see what happened and if the person that the scream came from was okay. 

I took a few steps forward, regaining my confidence. I moved more towards it. I stopped near the fence hearing a woman cry out in pain. The officers came out carrying an older woman with a blood stain side. I looked in horror at them. 

"Ma'am I suggest you get home now. This is the second stabbing we've had" said one of the officers. 

I looked at the woman surprised but nodded. I did what he suggested to go back home. I hurried along, the streets mainly empty now because of the scream. Concerned villagers poked their heads out wondering what it could be. I went towards the mansion I lived at with Frollo. Once I got inside I shut the door quickly and stood back. Trying to process what I've seen. I decided to stay near the door for Frollo. 

"(Y/N) I am home" Frollo said cheerful coming in. His expression turned gloomy when he noticed the fear on my face. "Honey, what's wrong?" he asked coming over quickly. 
"Have you heard about the stabbings? When I went for a walk a woman got stabbed. I saw her. The office wanted me to come back here" I explained looking up at him. 
"I've heard of them. The women that have been stabbed say the man is dressed in all black, they don't know who he is. " explained softly looking down at me. "I won't let anything happen to you" he said pulling me close. 
I relaxed from his comforting voice and pressed close to him enjoying the tight hug he gave me. 

A few days passed a few other women got stabbed, none died yet, which was a relief for them and their families. I sat by the fire place knitting some patches into clothes that ripped. I gritted my teeth at the stomach pains I was having. I started to wonder what it could be. I've been puking on and off. I couldn't put two and two together but pressed it off. 
"Must be a small sickness I've caught or nerves" I scoffed brushing the feeling off. 

I hummed as I knitted the sweater. Not really paying attention to the sounds and the area around me. I enjoyed the warmth from the fire as I continued on. Frollo wouldn't be home for a little bit longer which kinda sucked. I hated being alone in the big mansion. The servants were gone for the night. usually we didn't need their help at night anyhow, we had each other. 

I stopped when I heard something fall over from the fall way. I froze in my chair for a moment. 
<Oh no..> I thought. Fear welled up inside of me as I thought of who it could be. I took a deep breath and stood. I didn't want to go towards the noise so I started to back up but stopped when I heard foot steps. I froze in fear when a man stood in the door way staring at me. Dressed in all black I could only see his eyes. Hateful dark green eyes. I turned to run but got knocked down. He towered over me. 

I let out a shriek hoping someone nearby would hear. I shook. I couldn't stop. The main stare down at me, almost like a he was enjoying seeing me in fear. He raised his sharp knife above, holding me down. I let out a wail of cry when his blade stabbed right into my side. Pain over took me as blood started to poor out. He took the blade out and stabbed it right in my leg. I let out another fearful and painful cry. He seemed to of smiled and got up. My terrified gaze followed him as he grabbed things from the room. 

Once he left the room I tried to move but couldn't. The pain started to grow stronger and overpowering. I vision became blurry. A pool of blood surrounded me. I started to crawl a little towards the door but collapsed. "Claude.." I breathed out, my vision going black.
