Okay first things first I do not as much as it saddens me own The Phantom Of The Opera, ALW lyrics, Gerard Butler (if I did I would have the man tied to my bed having my wicked way with him), etc.
Also since this story is time travel and it involves the cast of a production of The Phantom Of The Opera I have decided to use part of the names from the real actors and actresses but change them around a little so my story is not kicked off this damn site.
And to all possible flames I DO NOT care! In fact thank you in advance to those who send them I shall have myself a beach party with a nice cozy bonfire! Hehe
Story Update January 2007 I have just completely corrected any mistakes that were in this story. I also changed Emma's name to Emily because I didn't like the fact that my name was in this story. After re-reading this story I have come to realize how bad of a writer I used to be…it's freakin scary! And yes I am aware that Emily is a Mary Sue it just took me two years, a couple years in honors creative writing, and a year of college level English to figure it out. I am leaving this up because for some ungodly reason I have a number of fans that actually like it…don't ask me why. So if you read this and don't like it, I'm not sorry. You were warned ahead of time.
PROLOGUE
"Insolent boy! This slave of fashion basking in your glory! Ignorant fool this brave young suitor, sharing in my triumph!" Thomas Butler made his way to the back of the prop mirror ready to make his grand entrance.
"Angel I hear you! Speak- I listen... stay by my side guide me! Angel, my soul was weak forgive me... enter at last master!" Emily Morgan sang her heart out trying her hardest to nail the difficult notes of the song.
"CUT!" Shawn Celeron director of the film yelled. "Alright Tom, Emily I'm sorry but we are going to have to stop for the day we are having some problems with the equipment."
Emily and Tom both relaxed and walked to the refreshment table for bottles of water.
"You were great Em" Tom told her unscrewing the top of his water.
"Thanks but I don't think it matters. It looks like we are going to be redoing it tomorrow." Emily replied
"Red alert it's the unenlightened duo." Tom said as he watched Patrick Knoxville and Maria Marten who were playing the roles of Raoul and Meg unashamedly groping each other by the front doors of the Opera Populaire.
"Well would you look at that I didn't know Britney and Kevin were in this film!" Emily joked shaking her head.
"20 bucks says they go public before the end of the week as a publicity stunt." Tom raised an eyebrow at Emily.
"Nope sorry babe I don't take bets I know I can't win." she laughed.
"Your no fun lass" Tom said in his extremely sexy Scottish accent.
"How do you do it?" Emily asked.
"Do what?"
"Cover up your accent like there's nothing to it. It takes everything I have not to use my southern twang while filming."
"I learned how to do it while filming Dracula Revisited the fangs made it easy for some reason." Tom shook his head.
"Speaking of said film I'm going to kill you." Emily said pointing a finger at him.
"What I do?"
"I rented it last time I was at home and watched it with my 13 year old niece only to have her see your naked backside!"
Tom blushed a little at that and laughed "Its rated R for a reason lass."
"Oh shut up I caught hell from my sister for letting Cassie see that. Hey you headed back to the hotel once you get changed?"
"Yeah you need a lift?"
"Please the last time I took a taxi in this town I ended up signing autographs for the cabbies whole family."
"Alright I'll meet you in your dressing room in say 15 minutes?"
"Yep" And with that they went there separate ways.
15 MINUTES LATER
KNOCK KNOCK
"You may enter opera ghost!" Emily laughed.
Tom peeked his head in the door. "You ready to go?"
"Yep" Emily said putting her curly blond hair up in a ponytail.
"Shit!" Emily exclaimed
"What is it?" Tom asked
"I dropped my moms ring and it went under the mirror!" She said getting on her hands and knees and trying to fit her hand under the old brass mirror.
"Here I'll pick it up and you grab it." Tom said coming and lifting the mirror.
Emily reached and grabbed the diamond ring, Tom set the mirror down.
"Damn I think we broke it!" Emily said noticing there was a small opening that was not there before Tom had picked it up. She put her finger in crack only to feel the sensation of falling but did manage to grab Tom before she lost all control.
