A/N: Sorry it took so long, between the homework and the essays there isn't much time for

anything. But here it is, I thought of it on the bus ride home yesterday. and the previous

chapter gets to stay, and I am liking the idea of using the lyrics, it helps get the words out.

moving right along

It was quite a ways from the restaurant that we were eating at to the opera house that was my home and sanctuary, as well as the root of all my fears and nightmares.

Wandering child, so lost, so helpless. Yearning for my guidance.

It was a very cold night. Cold and unfeeling like something, greater than man, was laughing at me for going back to that place.

People weighed down with troubles do not look back; they know only too well that misfortune stalks them

Angel or father, friend or phantom, who is it there staring?

There were no longer any angels, ghosts, or phantoms. Only Erik, who if I didn't get to him soon, would rot in the hell he created for himself.

Have you forgotten your angel?

I didn't want to forget him, I never did. But sometimes it hurts to remember. I tried to hold back the tears that were blurring my vision.

Angel oh, speak what endless longings, echo in his whisper.

I had tried to banish the memories of him from the depths of my mind, but they would not cease to haunt my dreams, and bless my nightmares. Every time I closed my eyes he was there. I knew at that point, that being without him, was killing me.

Once again she is his.

I wished to remain friends with Raoul, but I knew he wouldn't be able to forgive me for returning. We did love each other, but we were mere children then, we knew nothing of the world, its horrors and tragedies, or of its many gifts and blessings. But I felt that maybe we never would.

Too long you've wandered in winter, far from my far-reaching gaze.

I took a small detour through the cemetery, it too held many unwanted memories. Although I knew I didn't want to be here, I slowed my pace as I walked along the path.

Once again she returns.

I almost thought of the cemetery as a safe-haven, I felt tranquil and relaxed, perhaps the first time in months.

Wildly my mind beats against you, but the soul obeys.

At this point I closed my eyes, and followed my heart, for I knew it knew where it was going. However when I did close my eyes, I found my self thinking all the wrong thoughts. Thoughts that I had considered, but never acted on, they hadn't seemed possible, until now.

Angel of music, I denied you. Turning from true beauty.

The wonderful carefree feeling fled from me almost as soon as it had come. I realized that I was in a place where death surrounded me. I soon became panicked. I looked down to see something lying on the ground; it appeared to be a newspaper article. Normally I wouldn't pick it up, but something told me it was important.

Angel of music, my protector. Come to me strange angel.

The words appeared smudged, but it was legible enough to strike terror into my heart.

'Erik is dead'

A/N: I tried to make it longer for you. I know this is really starting to sound like Point of No Return. But trust me THIS IS DIFFERENT! I know that the song kind of didn't work, but I felt the need to use it.

I don't own the book that that quote came from, but if you can give me the title and the author, I might do something special for you. Like a request or something, I don't know yet.
