It was a matter of time before I would be executed along with Esmeralda. I was alone in a far away cell. I wonder if Alice is ok. Is she with Francine, or Joseph or Clopin?
I smiled at the thought of Clopin. He...he said he loved me...
`ZEN I LOVE YOU!`
The words replayed in my head repeatingly. He loves me, he loves me, he loves me!
And I love him...
My smile faltered.
We will never be together...
I was really going to miss him. His smile, his laugh and that cute face he makes when he's annoyed. That brought back nice memories
"Wake up. Wake up. Wake up" Zendella said repeatingly poking Clopins cheek. Nothing worked so she moved back and pounced on him causing him to yell out in fright.
Esmeralda was watching from the tent entrance.
Clopin glared annoyingly at Zen who giggled "What is so funny?" he asked.
"Your face" she said smiling
"Why you little!"
Zen ran away before he could catch her and he chased her all over the court with Esmeralda, Mia and Alice watching them laughing.
Zen laughed to herself.
"Oi! Devil! It's time!" a guard yelled banging on the bars. I smiled a bit. Guess this is it. I stood up and was escorted to the town square by three guards
(Clopin's pov)
I saw Frollo's wicked face smirking at My Zen who was on her knee's and her head was laid on a flat rock.
I tried to move but I couldn't, I tried to look away but I could not. Zen...Why you? I don't want you to die! God please let me save her!
A man in a black mask rose a large axe above her and Frollo's arm was held up.
Zen's eyes looked at me and she smiled softly "I love you" she whispered. Frollo's arm went down as did the axe
BANG!
I saw her headless body and large amounts of blood. Frollo laughed loudly kicking the head away.
"NO!"
"NO!" I yelled bolting up from my straw bed. I gasped for breath and wiped the cold sweat from my forehead. I looked around finding that I was in my cell with little Alice curled up next to me. It was a dream.
A horrible dream.
A tear escaped my eye. Zen...I love you so much. I don't want to loose you
"Alright get moving you lot!" a guard yelled. I quickly woke Alice and hoisted her on my hip. I couldn't let her out of my sight. No she's too young to be alone in a situation like this.
I whispered comforting words in her ear when she whimpered. We were stuffed in a cage and rolled out to the square. Alice held onto me in fear so I stroked her hair in comfort.
La Esmeralda was tied to a post and straw was being thrown around her. She was going to be burned.
My eyes saw a man in a black mask and my heart clenched in fear for Zen.
(Zen's pov)
I walked slowly with the three guards towards the stage where Esme was tied to a post. Frollo didn't want me to be burned.
I was to be Be-Headed
I saw Frollo look at me with an evil smirk but I just stayed strong. I decided to sing one last song just to myself so no one could hear.
At last my final moment has arrived
As the bell tolls for my execution tonight
I was pushed to my knee's and my head was slammed down on a flat table
"The gypsy girls has been charged with witchcraft and Devil contact. The punishment! DEATH!" Frollo announced. I saw the villagers try to get by the guards to help us but it was no use. It was nice to know that they cared though.
My eyes found Clopin's and we stared at each other. He held Alice to his chest not wanting her to see my death.
But when I see you in that cage with fear in your eyes
I mumer "Clopin I love you" As my last word
"I shall now send these two back to hell where they belong!" Frollo sneered evilly lighting the straw by Esmeralda.
Suddenly she was free by none other than Quasimodo! He escaped by swinging and climbing back tot he cathedral by a rope.
Phoebes was now free and he motivated everyone to fight for freedom. All the gypsy's were set free as was Clopin. He tried to get through the crowds to me but I knew he wouldn't make it.
"Kill her now!" Frollo yelled
I knew he meant me. I closed my eyes and smiled
Don't be sad I'll be in your heart forever!
BANG!
I felt air rush to my face and snapped my eyes open. Clopin was swinging on a rope hanging onto my waist!
"Your not getting away from me that easily Zen" he joked winking. I laughed and held onto him as we set back on the ground.
I looked up towards the notre dame and noticed that something was begining to pour from the roof
HOT METAL!
I spotted Alice by some other children they were to near the cathedral! I quickly ran to them "Quickly children this way!" I yelled ushering them away. We made it to a safe distance right on time.
Alice clung to me like glue happy I was ok.
Most of the guards were defeated so now all we could do is wait.
