Sorry for the long delay. Here is the next chapter.

Christopher, Jocelyn and Danielle rode into Paris and were on their way to the Opera House. Jocelyn sat by the window with eyes wide open, as she looked at the tall buildings they past. "Mama, Why did you ever leave here?" Danielle looked at her daughter "Paris is not all glamor, Jocelyn."

They had arrived at the Opera House, Christopher help Jocelyn out of the carrige. Danielle just stayed in the carrige, not wanting to get out. Chris looked at her "It is time, Elle." She took a deep breath and took his hand and stepped out of the carrige. They walked up the stairs and into the Opera house.

They found there seats and waited for the Opera to begin. Chris leaned and whispered in Danielle's ear "Do you know how to get to him." Danielle nodded her head "Do you want Jocelyn to come with you?" She shook her head. Then the Opera Began.

Jocelyn watched with great interest, Danielle just fiddled with a peice of paper. She looked around the place and saw that there was law inforcements all over, with there eyes towards the stage.

"No thoughts within her head but thoughts of joy. no dreams within her heart, but dreams of love." Aminta walks on the stage and sits on her knees.

Then Don Juan appears. "Passarino- go away! For the trap is set and waits for his prey. You have come here in pursuit of your deepest urge in pursuit of that wish which till now has been silent. Silent. I have brought you that our passions may fuse and merge in your mind you've already succumbed to me, dropped all defenses completely succumbed to me now you are here with me no second thoughts you've decided. Decided."

Danielle's heart is starting to beat fast as she recongize that voice. Her nail dig in to her brothers knee as they watch.

"Past the point of no return - no backward glances: the games we've played till now are at an end . . . Past all thought of 'if' or 'when' - no use resisting: abandon thought, and let the dream descend . . . What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us . . .? Past the point of no return, the final threshold - what warm, unspoken secrets will we learn? Beyond the point of no return . . . "

Danielle closed her eyes nowing that the man she loves was holding an other.

"You have brought me to that moment where words run dry, to that moment where speech disappears into silence, silence . . . I have come here, hardly knowing the reason why . . . In my mind, I've already imagined our bodies entwining defenceless and silent - and now I am here with you: no second thoughts, I've decided, decided . . ."

Danielle shook her head 'Why did I leave him?' she thought to herself. She ached to be in his arms.

"Past the point of no return - no going back now: our passion-play has now, at last, begun . . . Past all thought of right or wrong - one final question: how long should we two wait, before we're one . . .? When will the blood begin to race the sleeping bud burst into bloom? When will the flames, at last, consume us . . .?"

Both walked up the bridge and sing together "Past the point of no return the final threshold - the bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn . . . We've passed the point of no return . . ." He held her in his arms, his hands running up and down her.

The Phantom then starts singing to Aminta "Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime . . . Lead me, save me from my solitude . . . "

A single tear fell from Danielle's eye.

"Say you want me with you, here beside you . . . Anywhere you go let me go too - Christine that's all I ask of . . . " Aminta/ Christine took his mask off.

Everyone gasped in horror, except Danielle "Mama?" said Jocelyn. Danielle just stood up and watch the Erik and Christine fall through the floor. Danielle took Jocelyn's hand and ran out side with Chris close behind. The Opera was on fire. Danielle went on one knee to meet Jocelyn's height "Jocelyn, I need you to stay here with Uncle Chris alright. Mother has something she has to do. Alright." Jocelyn huged her mom. "Okay.' Christ stood behind Jocelyn with his hand on her shoulder Danielle stood up and kissed him on the cheek "Wish me luck." Then she went back into the burning building.
