I hope you enjoy:) Please review and I shall update faster:)
Disclaimer: I do not, by all means, own Harry Potter and The Phantom of the Opera. The creative makers of these two ideas are the real owners, and I must say I envy them totally, lol. But the idea I came up in my strange little mind is mine to keep...
Summary: A Phantom, an Exquisite Beauty, a Votary of the Masked Young Man, a Fair Angel and a Faithful Lover appear in the Houses of Hogwarts as a fateful twist lures them into Love Triangles they could either escape, or get caught in its spell once more. PotoXHp Crossover Reviews Appreciated!
PLEASE DO NOT FLAME ME! And if you find that not all things are correct, I'm sorry.
Chapter Two - Angel of Beauty
Cho Chang sat on her new bed, her trunk beside it as she gave out a sigh of relief. Her long black hair fell on her shoulder like a fountain as she blinked in the darkness of the night. Everybody had dressed for bed and went to sleep but Cho did not. She had changed her clothes to get ready for bed, but she wasn't sleeping. Her eyes were wide awake, illuminating the shadows with the color of her light brown eyes.
A smile crossed her lips as her eyes lit up. Cho was so excited. She had come to Hogwarts at last! There were so many wonders inside the castle that made her heart beat loudly. What more secrets did the castle hold within? Cho thought and sat near the large large window. It showed a spectacular view of the forest, and the large lake glowing beneath the bright moon. She looked up to see the moon. It wasn't a full moon, but a half moon. Her gaze flicked towards the darkened Forbidden Forests. She couldn't help but feel herself shiver.
Cho withdrew her gaze from the window and telling herself to go to bed because of the early waking tomorrow, she started to slid herself into the sheets of her bed. But before she can, a small but yet clear voice whispered through the darkness.
"Salutare, salutare, desiderato..."
Cho froze in her place, her eyes now wide with shock, fear and excitement all in one piece. She stepped back from the bed and she lifted her chin a little. She knew a bit of Italian, and she understood the stranger who had spoken to her had welcomed her.
"Where are you?" Cho spoke, and she whirled around, her eyes searching her surroundings. There was no door of some sort in the room as far as she could see, but then again, she knew not of the secrets of Hogwarts.
"Of the unseen..." the voice replied.
"Let me see you!" Cho answered, and curiousity filled her eyes. A small chuckle was the only answer she got and her joy wavered.
"Do not be frightened, I mean you no harm. I have just come to see, the beauty of your smile..." the voice spoke out and something in the tone reassured Cho.
"Who are you?"
"Your Angel of Beauty..." the voice sang in a beautiful voice that soothed the worries inside Cho. Cho took a step towards the darkness, following the voice.
"Angel of Beauty, hide no longer..." Cho began and hesitated. But she pushed back any negative thoughts and continued. "Enchant me with your presence..."
As if in answer, from the darkness two visible eyes, as bright and beautiful as emerald colored stones, opened, glowing in the darkness. Cho gasped at the allurment of those lovely eyes as she took a step forward towards the darkened figure.
"Your wish is granted... You shall see your Angel of Beauty..." echoed the voice as a candle suddenly burned in front of Cho.
She found she stood face to face in front of the strange figure, holding a burning candle in his hand. The young man was dressed all in black, and even the mask he was wearing was painted to blend in the darkness. Cho could only gape in fascination at her strange new angel as the man extended a hand.
"You shall see beauty as you've never seen it, fair lady," the Angel of Music spoke and his lips curled into a smile.
Cho hesitated, but she slowly grasped hold of the young man's gloved hand. She felt her hand grasped tightly by the man as well.
"Follow your angel..."
A/N: Sorry I stopped there, I know I just wrote a cliffhanger! Please review, and chapters will come quick:D And I'm sorry to say this chapter has also become short... But I needed to stop with a cliffie, I couldn't help it! So please, if you want to see what happens next, tell me what you think of this chapter and I shall! Also, I forgot to mention but Ron might not be in this story... At first he was supposed to be, but then it made the story quite complicated. So if you have a role that might fit the young Weasley, please tell me! If not, as I said before, Ron might not be in the story. I'm sorry:( And if everybody is wondering why I didn't just put in all the lyrics from the Phantom of the Opera, instead probbing with the lyrics, well... I did it to fit the plot I have, and it was slightly different from the story. So anyways, that's why. I'm sorry if I upset anyone. Other then that, please review? -puppy eyes- Pweaze?
