*In Phantom's point of view*
I made my way out of my dark lair, glass crunching under my feet as I went. Tears crept down my unmasked face. I wiped the shame away.
She never loved me. She wanted to save her naïve fool of a lover. Well let her live a boring life with him.
I ran out of the Opera Populaire, into the cold of the night.
An idea popped into my twisted mind.
I made my way to a weeping willow. The willow was just behind the Opera House. Its branches hid the trunk, making a beautiful hidden alcove.
I took my "magical lasso" out of my cloak. I took at the city. Everyone running around, wondering how the Opera Populaire was being ruined.
My thoughts were distracted from the chaos by a simple butterfly. Its beauty was simple and elegant, much like Christine.
'No,' I yelled in my mind. 'I mustn't think of that piece of nothingness.'
I threw the end of the lasso over a high tree branch, my movements hidden by the weeping willow. How ironic. A tree weeping for the death of a monster.
I climbed the top branch and tied the noose around my neck.
"Goodbye cruel world. Goodbye my beautiful Angel of Music," I whispered.
Then I jumped.
*Narrator*
The Phantom of the Opera died that night. No one except Madame Giry cared. She found him on the weeping willow tree, his eyes bulging out of his eye sockets. Never in her life had she cried for a Master of Music. Meg watched her cry, grief hitting her as well.
*Years Later*
Meg Giry watched as the Victome de Choney place the music box on Christine's grave. She watched him look, shocked, at the old wedding ring and the black ribboned rose, the Phantom's signature. She smiled knowing that Phantom would be happy with the final act ending his way.
"He will live on forever," she whispered to the graves the surrounded her.
A/N- this was an assignment for my choir class. We had to watch the "Phantom of the Opera" and then write a small ending the way we thought it should happen. This was for my friend and my true ending was never written. I enjoyed finding the rough draft and recreating it for today. Reviews are welcomed and praises are praised in return with a smile. Thank you.
