A/N: I would love to thank my dear reviewers. Nibbles on S'mores bar Oh and

AmandaTheVampireLove you sob a lot

Erik's thoughts...

I brought her down that path, down that path it felt she had been down one too

many times. I thought she might leave the mask alone, oh how idiotic of me, I

could have seen it coming. Then my dark plan hatched.

She will be mine.

I almost chuckled but I heard her voice. It stopped my thoughts dead.

Have you gorged yourself at last

in your lust for blood?

Am I now to be prey

to your lust for flesh?

If only she knew, but I looked at her eyes, so sweet and full of love. How could I

have kidnaped my angel. How could he still love me!

I was a monster, undeserving, I deserved to rot in the hell I've created.

This place was meant for death and hatred, not innocence and live like Christine.

I needed her though,

Like a fish need water.

She never could have loved me though.

I am a monster with a face not even a mother could love.

He knew he was right. He didn't want to know, but he did. Then the tables turned.

He came oh how predictable that fop is. He has just fallen into my trap.

(Christine's singing will be italicized.)

Free her

Do what you like, only free her

Have you no pity?

Please, Raoul, it's useless

I love her

Does that mean nothing?

I love her

Show some compassion

Oh if only he knew my life! He expected me to show compassion to him.

The poor fool he makes me laugh.

Christine . . .

Christine . . .

Let me see her

Well yes indeed the tables have turned. This time though it will be you who must

suffer. Unlike that night, when you murdered my soul. That night on the roof. You

betrayed your angel. And he tried to steal all that was left of my life.

He is the one who must pay. He brought her up there.

No she brought him. She went up there. She knew I was there. She knew. If only

she knew what she did to me.

The tears I might have shed

for your dark fate,

Grow cold and turn to tears

of hate

Christine, forgive me, please forgive me

I did it all

for you, and all for

nothing . . .

Say you love him, and my life is over!

Oh well it seems we have found common ground here. Although is it? You have

money, charm and appeal. What do I have, nothing. Nothing a person could ever

want.

Either way you choose, he has to win

At this point my plan had reached it's success. I really did have to win this one.

Why make her lie to you to save me?

Angel of Music . . .

I was no angel I wanted to tell her as I had so many times before.

For pity's sake, Christine say no!

Who deserved this?

Don't throw your life away for my sake!

Why do you curse mercy?

I fought so hard to free you . . .

Well you failed. I would tell him right now if Christine wasn't there, her eyes were

so pleading. Could I really make her do this.

Yes I could and I will, I already am.

I wanted her with all my heart and soul, which I still wasn't sure existed.

Angel of Music . . .

. . . you deceived me

I gave my mind blindly

What would she choose. I knew that I had to trust her to listen to her her soul, and

her mind. I hoped her choice was wise. I was not sure she deserved me. She

could never truly love me. He thought back an changed his mind.

Fear can turn to love you'll learn to see to see to find the man behind the monster...

Could she learn to love me, an angel, friend, teacher, phantom?

A/N: Aren't cliffhangers fun? Sorry this one is a bit shorter. I find that it is somewhat tricky keeping Erik in character. Who will she choose. Next update might take a couple of days, I haven't chosen who she'll pick yet!
