Disclaimer: I still do not own this.
A/N: This ends rather abruptly but it is not the end. A struggle to prove Erik's innocence
will develop hopefully by the next chapter. Sorry the chapters are so short at the moment.
The sound of the javelin echoed through the courtroom. Erik had been sentenced to death. The finality of the situation came crashing down around him, wasn't this what he had wanted? Yes, but it was the principal of the matter, he had not been responsible for the death of that man. Compte Philippe De Chaney had drowned without his aid.
But he would die for it anyway; who would believe him? He was the infamous "Opera Ghost", his lust for blood had been sated before this many times over and he had no alibi. This time no one would-no one could save him. There was no Christine to bring light into the depths of his mind not would Nadir come to save him from this unjust fate.
