A/N: I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for the nice reviews! You all make me very happy! Here's a new chapter! Enjoy!

With every step I took, the feeling of wanting to go back grew. But the voice still called my name.

"Christine, Christine!"

So I kept going, and the voice led me back to the prisoner's door. Inside I heard what sounded like sobbing.

"Christine! Oh my Christine! How I wish I could see you again!"

I gasped softly.

"Raoul?" I whispered. His head jerked up at the sound of my voice.

"Christine?! No it can't be! God, when will I stop dreaming of you? Every day, I can see you standing in front of me, you hold out your hand, but I can't take it! Oh, Christine!" He sobbed.

"Don't cry anyone, my love." I whispered; I then began to sing softly.

I'm here, with you beside you,

To guard you and to guide you.

"Christine? Are you really there?" He asked.

"Yes!" I cried. "I'm behind the door that you speak of! Oh, Raoul! Erik told me you were dead! And then- Oh no!"

"What has that bastard done to you?!" He demanded.

"Nothing, nothing! I just remembered that I had gotten myself engaged to him without really knowing it!"

"What do you mean?" He asked. "Well, that night after he had told me of your death, he began to play and sing, and I found myself so entranced by his music that when he asked me to marry him, I said yes!"

"Oh, Christine-" Raoul groaned.

"Don't worry, my love. I'm not going to go through with it." I told him. "I have my things gathered, so I can free you and we can leave tonight."

"You'll have to get the keys though. Do you know where he keeps them?"

I thought for a moment. "By his bedside."

"Do you think you can get to them?" I bit my lip in determination; "I'll try. I'll be back soon." I said as I started to walk away.

"Good luck my love." I could hear him as I went back to the last place I wanted to be right now…

Once I was inside, I headed straight for Erik's bedroom. I cracked the door and my eyes immediately fell on the keys. "Perfect." I whispered. I then started walking toward the night table. I reached out and placed my trembling hand on the keys as I glanced over at the sleeping Erik. (Actually, he was snoring quite loudly.) I silently picked the keys up and started toward the door, when all of the sudden, I heard a thud outside. I placed my free hand over my mouth to keep from screaming, as I rushed (quietly) out of the room.

I quickly ran out of the house, clinging to the shadows and trying to see what it was that made the noise. When I saw the cost was clear, I quietly ran to Raoul's cell, but I did not know at the time that I was being watched…

A/N: Yay! Raoul's alive! Please review!
