Merry Christmas to all you Phans :)
Welcome to my Phantom Christmas Special for 2010
This is based, very very loosely on Shrek Forever After (I haven't actually seen it but I liked the general idea)
Short, Sweet and full of fluffy EC goodness- what more could you want at Christmas?
Dedicated to my very dear friend Gene's Gal
Raoul's Wish
Erik is dead
Those words should have brought some measure of comfort to the heart of the young Vicompte, Raoul de Chagny. However, given the regrettable current condition of his sweet innocent bride to be- unconscious on the breakfast room carpet- the news of his monstrous rival's demise only served as a reminder of how strong the ties which bound Christine to her recently belated vocal coach-come- not so secret admirer still were.
In his ire- the blonde nobleman found himself blaming a guiltless man.
"If only her father hadn't died so young" Raoul muttered darkly as he laid his fiancée on her bed. "If he hadn't then she would never have fallen under the Angel's spell"
"Do you wish to test that hypothesis viscount" a smooth English voice asked quietly
Raoul started, violently.
"Who's there?" he demanded, turning. "Show yourself"
"As you wish"
Out of the shadows stepped a tall, stately, bearded gentleman in a black suit with black eyes.
"Wh-who are you?" Raoul asked, there was something about this gentleman that made the hair on the back of his neck stand on end.
"My name is Lucius" the man told him, pleasantly enough. "Now- would you like me to fix it for you that your bride's Sire did not die in her seventh year?"
"You can do that?"
"But of course" Lucius smiled thinly. "You have but to wish it and it shall be so"
Raoul bit his bottom lip as he considered this. He should have been able to see the potential for great harm this wish might hold for the fabric of reality, but his love for Christine blinded him to it.
"I wish that Charles Daae were still living."
Lightening split the otherwise clear skies and everything went black.
Ooh dear me- what has Raouly boy got himself into?
Let me know what you think so far but no flames, sil vous plait
