I do not own Phantom of the Opera!

Warning: This might make sentimental people cry! i was practically in tears while writing it! so...

I pulled her down the hallways filled with rage. Thinking 'how dare she do that! Reveal my true self to thousands of people!' while deep inside I knew that I could never be mad at her, I loved her to much to stay mad at her.

Down once more to the dungeons of my black despair down we plunge to the prison of my mind! Down that path into darkness deep as hell!

I whirled on her

Why you ask was I bound and chained in this cold dismal place. Not for any mortal sin but the wickedness of my abhorrent face!

I kept pulling her along, dragging her against my will. No matter how hard I tried, no matter how much I wanted to stop, I couldn't.

Hounded out by everyone, met with hatred everywhere, no kind word from anyone, no compassion anywhere!

I pressed her against a wall my hands around her neck, but loose enough so I wasn't choking her.

Christine…why?...Why!

She just stared at me, with pure fear in her eyes. I let go of her, told her to stay put. I went over to my manikin of her and got the dress off it. I slammed it into her arms and told her to change into it. She quickly walked out of my sight. I sat down and reached into my pocket, and pulled out the engagement ring that I got off of Christine's necklace, and looked at it.

Have you gorged your self at last for the lust of blood?

Her voice echoed through the room, I turned my head to look at her.

Am I now to be prey for your lust for flesh?

I stood up, amazed by her beauty. I started to walk towards her.

The fate which condemns me to wallow in blood, has also denied me the joy's of the flesh.

I reached out to touch her face and gently did but she pulled away.

This face the infection which poisons our love.

She looked at me, and I started to walk over to the manikin. I could feel her eyes following me.

This face which earned a mother's fear and loathing.

I picked the veil up off the head of the manikin and started to walk towards Christine.

A mask my first unfeeling scrap of clothing.

I placed the veil on her head and spun her around, so she was looking straight at me.

Pity comes to late! Turn around and face your fate! An eternity of this! Before your eyes.

Christine walked away from me and towards my mirror, she took off the veil.

This haunted face, holds no horror for me now it's in your soul that the true distortion lies.

I looked down at the ground. What the hell was that supposed to mean. I heard a splash right near the gate; I looked up and saw Raoul coming up to the gate. "Wait I think my dear we have a guest." How dare he come here!

"Raoul!" said Christine

Sir this is indeed an unparalled delight. I had rather hoped that you would come. And now my wish comes true you have truly made my night.

I press Christine to me and she whispers. "Let me go."

Free her! Do what you like only free her! Have you no pity?

I let go of Christine.

Your lover makes a passionate plea.

'Please Raoul it's useless.'

"I love her! Does that mean nothing? Sure does. I love her! Show some compassion!

THE WORLD SHOWED NO CAMPASSION TO ME!

"Christine. Christine…let me see her.

I went over to the handle that opened the gate.

Be my guest sir. The gate slowly opened the Raoul walked in, I started down the steps.

Monsieur I bid you welcome did you think that I would harm her. Why would I make her pay? I reached down into the water where I knew I kept a rope. For the sins which are yours! I tied the rope around him then tied him to the gate while singing; ORDER YOU'RE FINE HORSES NOW! RAISE UP YOUR HAND TO LEVEL OF YOUR EYES! NOTHING CAN SVE YOU NOW! EXCEPT PERHAPS CHRISTINE! I was mad with jealousy, and I couldn't control it. I needed Christine for myself and I would do anything to get her. I turned to face her. START A NEW LIFE WITH ME BY HIS FREEDOM WITH YOUR LOVE REFUSE ME AND YOU SEND YOUR LOVER TO HIS DEATH! THIS IS THE CHOICE! THIS IS THE POINT OF NO RETURN! Oh gee that's really great. She probably hates you now. She stares at me and finally starts to sing.

'The tears I might have said for your dark fate, grows cold and turn to tears of HATE!" yup she hates me. Which just makes m y anger grow more; she hates me because she loves her childhood sweetheart that is tied up to an iron gate! Grrrr. How I hate the vicomt de Chagney. I go over and grab my famous Punjab lasso and went over to him while he was singing,

Christine forgives me; please forgive me I did it all for you and all for nothing.

I slip the lasso around his neck. Slip it through the gate and grip it. I start singing too and so does Christine.

Past all hope of cries for help, no point in fighting. For either way you choose you cannot win! (A/n- when they are all singing together im only doing the Phantoms part.)

So do you end your days with me? Or do you send him to his Grave! I pull on the rope.

Why make her lie to you to save me?

Past the point of no return, the final threshold, his life is now the prize which you must earn!

I fought so hard to free you.

You've passed the point of no return.

Christine stares at me then says. "I gave you my mind blindly."

I smiled wickedly at her. "You try my patience now make your choice." I pull on the rope once again and I can hear Raoul struggling to breathe.

'Pitiful creature of darkness. What kind of life have you known?' She comes walking down the stairs. 'What is she doing? And did she just call me a pitiful creature?' I thought. 'God give me courage to show you! You are not alone!' I saw her out of the corner of my eye slip the ring on her finger, and then she did something that surprised me out of my mind. She kissed me! I felt the weirdest feeling. She pulled away stared at me then kissed me again. This time she placed her hand on the right side of my face and she wasn't even cringing. This time when she pulled away I knew it was the end, and I realized I couldn't keep her against her will. She does love me, just not enough. I loved her to much to keep her against her will and kill her love, especially after what just happened. I started to cry and I let the tears fall. I backed up away from her and she gave me a look of confusion and hope, I turned to face the other way. "Take her. Forget me-forget all of this." I started to walk away, "leave me alone forget all you've seen. Take the boat swear to me never to tell. Of the secrets you know of the Angel in Hell!" I spun around watching Christine untie Raoul. "Go- GO NOW! GO NOW AND LEAVE ME!" I screamed at them. I wanted them out of my sight, I wanted them to get out of here. Leave me to my misery.

I felt like screaming. I finally calmed down a bit and sat down staring at my monkey music box. It started to play it's famous tune. After it played the first verse of music I started to sing along with it, my voice cracking and my eyes welling up with tears. "Masquerade. Paper faces on parade. Masquerade. Hide your face so the world will never find you." I heard foot steps beside me, I turned my head and there was Christine standing there staring at me. I took a few sobering breaths then sang, "Christine…I love…you." She walked over to me, and when she was in a few feet of me, her hand was up and she was taking the ring off of her finger. She took my hand, in hers. Her touch was so gentle, she put the ring in my hand and closed his fingers over it.I didn't keep my eyes off of her. She looked at me and she looked about ready to say. "im sorry." But didn't. She apologized with her eyes once more then left and hurried off to Raoul. I stared at the ring, thinking about how happy me and her could have been. He felt the tears welling up in my eyes and couldn't hold them in any longer. I let them flow steadily and rapidly down my cheeks, I didn't bother to wipe them away. In the backround I heard them singing. "Say you'll share with me one love, one life time. Say the word and I will follow you." I stood up an started to walk towards the shore of my little swamp, she looked back at me. Now Raoul was singing. "say you'll share with me each night each morning." I took a sobbing breath and gently sang. "you alone can make my song take flight." I backed up, rage and Depression flooding my soul. "IT'S OVER NOW THE MUSIC OF…THE …NIGHT.!" I picked up a candle stick and whacked my mirrors with it, I didn't want to see my face anymore. This face which caused Christine to turn and run away. I smashed the last mirror so hard that I completely shattered it. I took one last look at my Lair, the Lair which is going to cause me so many bad memories for the rest of my pathetic life. I walked under the curtain and left the Opera Populaire for ever. Left the only good part of my soul back there, left my love back there. All hope of the real me coming to life, is gone. All hope is gone for the future.
