Yes Ferbnessa as well :)

I don't own POTO or PnF or Robin from the next chapter. He was lent to me by the great Robinbid123! XD Thanks buddy!

Down below the opera house, the Phantom was pulling a horrified Isabella back to his labyrinth. He was breathing angrily with each step he took. Every hope of ever rejoining the world above was whisked away from him when she removed his mask. He looked back at her and saw she was trying to be free of his tight grip around her wrist. He only grunted and began to pull her harder. He looked around in the darkness and sand out,

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

Isabella continued to pull and whimper out silent pleads. She recoiled in horror when he suddenly stopped and rounded on her. He gripped her shoulders tightly and looked furiously at her,

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

He looked up when he heard the sounds of the perusing mob after him. He could hear their voices echoing off of the walls, 'Track down this murderer! He must be found!'

The Phantom pushed Isabella into the boat they just arrived at and looked around desperately,

'Hounded out by everyone!
Met with hatred everywhere!
No kind word from anyone!
No compassion anywhere!'

He looked down at the terrified Isabella and looked sadly at her,

'Isabella, Isabella…

Why… why?'

She didn't dare answer him. She held her breath as he pushed off from the land and started floating them towards his domain.

Phineas followed closely behind Linda. She had just led him through a passageway that led down below the opera house. She turned to look at him and raised her hand,

'Your hand at the level of your eyes!'

Phineas nodded and raised his hand again, '… at the level of your eyes.'

The sound of the mob could be heard behind them, 'Your hand at the level of your eyes!'

Linda stopped at the edge of the underground lake. She pointed to the darkness, "He lives across the lake, monsieur. This is as far as I dare go."

Phineas began rolling up his sleeves and ready to jump him. He suddenly paused and looked at Linda who was leaving, "Madame Linda!" she turned around to look at him, and he smiled slightly and nodded at her, "Thank you…"

She nodded at him before turning to leave. Phineas stood at the edge of the lake and jumped into the cold water. As he swam across the lake, he could hear the mob behind him getting closer and closing in,

'Track down this murderer he must be found!
Hunt out this animal who runs to ground!
Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know,
the Phantom of the Opera is there deep down below…
He's here, the Phantom of the Opera!'

The manikin that wore the wedding dress was now cast aside on the floor. Isabella stumbled out from behind a curtain, the Phantom was behind her and holding the veil. Isabella turned to him and shouted out fiercely,

'Have you gorged yourself at last, in your lust for blood?
Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?'

The Phantom approached her and spoke coldly,

'That fate, which condemns me to wallow in blood
has also denied me the joys of the flesh…'

He paused in front of her and pointed to his distorted face,

'This face the infection which poisons our love!'

Isabella looked at him and raised an eyebrow. The Phantom's tone turned low and sad,

'This face, which earned a mother's fear and loathing…
A mask, my first unfeeling scrap of clothing…'

He placed the veil roughly on her head and breathed heavily,

'Pity comes too late!
turn around and face your fate,
an eternity of this before your eyes!'

Isabella looked at his eyes and sighed. She walked over to a covered mirror and pulled off the curtain blocking it. She looked sadly at his reflection and sang

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

The Phantom sighed and lowered his gaze. His ears suddenly picked up a distant splashing in his lake. He grinned to himself suddenly and looked at Isabella,

'Wait! I think, my dear, we have a guest!'

He turned to face the lake that was blocked off by a metal gate. Phineas was walking in the now knee deep water and approached the gate. Isabella gasped when she saw him. The Phantom bowed mockingly,

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

Phineas rapped the rails on the gate and looked pleadingly at the Phantom,

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

The Phantom laughed at his feeble attempt and spoke drily to Isabella,

'Your lover makes a passionate plea!'

Isabella looked desperately at Phineas, 'Please Phineas, it's useless…'

Phineas looked at the Phantom and called out,

'I love her!
Does that mean nothing?
I love her!
Show some compassion!'

The Phantom snarled at him. 'The world showed no compassion to me!'

Phineas reached out to Isabella and called out lovingly, 'Isabella… Isabella. Let me see her…'

The Phantom rolled his eyes and reached to a lever that began pulling up the gate, 'Be my guest, sir…'

Phineas walked cautiously into the lair, and watched as the Phantom slowly approached him. The Phantom raised his arms up and waved around,

'Phineas, I bid you welcome!
Did you think that I would harm her?
Why should I make her pay
for the sins which are yours?'

Everything happened so fast. Phineas heard the gate suddenly close behind him so he turned to look behind him. As he did, the Phantom reached into the water and pulled out a noose. He flung it around Phineas's neck and pulled tightly on it. Isabella gasped in horror and watched as the Phantom began to use another rope to tie Phineas to the gate. As the Phantom tied him up, he sang out tauntingly,

'Order your fine horses now!
Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes!
Nothing can save you now, except perhaps Isabella!'

Once Phineas was secured, the Phantom turned back to Isabella and strode towards her. He gripped her arm and gave her the choices she had,

'Start a new life with me!
Buy his freedom with your love!'

He suddenly shoved her to the ground and sang out warningly,

'Refuse me, and you send your lover to his death!
This is the choice!
This is the point of no return!'

Isabella breathed out heavily on the floor. Her fingers gripped the veil on her head and she turned to look at the Phantom. She narrowed her eyes and sang out angrily as she ripped the veil from her head,

'The tears I might have shed for your dark fate
grow cold, and turn to tears of hate!'

The Phantom's eyes grew wide at this. Never in his life would he ever imagine his true love hating him.

Phineas breathed out raspy and sang despairingly to her,

'Isabella, forgive me please forgive me…
I did it all for you, and all for nothing!'

Isabella stood and continued to look at the Phantom,

'Farewell my fallen idol and false friend,
One by one I've watched illusions shattered!'

The Phantom pointed a warning finger at her,

'Too late for turning back, too late for prayers and useless pity!'

Phineas and the Phantom began singing at the same time to her, overlapping their words with each other. Phineas looked sadly at her,

'Say you love me, and my life is over!'

The Phantom approached Phineas again and gripped the rope,

'Past all hope of cries of help,
No point in fighting for either way you choose you cannot win!'

Phineas shouted out to her,

'Either way you choose, he has to win!'

The Phantom whipped the rope around and suddenly pulled on it,

'So do you end your days with me or do you send him to his GRAVE?'

Phineas choked when the Phantom pulled the rope tighter. He looked to him and called out desperately to him

'Why make her lie to you to save me?'

The Phantom pulled the rope tightly once more, and all three of them began singing together, overlapping their words with each other,

The Phantom sang,

'Past the point of no return... the final threshold!
His life is now the prize, which you must earn!
You've passed the point of no return!'

While Phineas sang,

'For pity's sake, Isabella say no!
Don't throw your life away for my sake!
I fought so hard to free you.'

As Isabella sang,

'Angel of Music why this torment?
When will you see reason?
Angel of Music you deceived me!'

Isabella felt a tear fall from her eyes as she looked harshly at the Phantom,

'I gave my mind blindly!'

The Phantom breathed out heavily and began moving slowly towards her. Once he was face to face to her, he gripped her chin tightly and leaned in closer to her ear. She shivered when she felt his breath on her neck.

He whispered dangerously to her, 'You try my patience… make your choice!'

He stepped back and crossed his arms. Isabella gulped and reflected on her choice for a moment. She looked sadly at Phineas before looking back to the Phantom. Knowing what she must do, she stepped forward and sand softly to the Phantom,

'Pitiful creature of darkness…
What kind of life have you known?
Let me have courage to show you
you are not alone!'

Now face to face with the Phantom, she leaned up and kissed him hard on the lips. The Phantom's eyes grew wide as he looked at her kissing him. Her arms wrapped around his shoulders and deepened the kiss even more. Phineas watched in both horror and wonderment. Did Isabella just throw away her life for his?

Isabella continued to kiss the man in front of her and finally pulled back after a minute. Her eyes opened up and she looked lovingly at the Phantom. She was surprised to see his face full of shock and sadness. His eyes filled with tears and he stumbled away from her. He gripped his chest tightly and gasped for air. He could feel a shuddering sob forming in his body. He looked to Phineas and back at Isabella. He closed his eyes and picked up an unlit candlestick. He walked over to a lit candle and lit the unlit one. He slowly approached Phineas with the candle and looked back at Isabella, who was watching with wide eyes.

The sound of the mob suddenly could be heard getting closer and closer,

'Track down this murderer he must be found!
Hunt out this animal, who runs to ground!
Too long he's preyed on us, but now we know,
the Phantom of the Opera is there deep down below!'

The Phantom breathed out and looked at Phineas. He suddenly raised the lit candlestick and stuck it on the rope that held Phineas to the gate. Phineas suddenly dropped down to his knees and felt the Phantom reach down to stable him. The Phantom looked at him desperately and spoke,

'Take her, forget me, forget all of this!
Leave me alone forget all you've seen…'

Phineas scrambled to his feet and ran to Isabella, who hugged him tight. She whimpered nervously and felt Phineas pressing his lips against her forehead.

The Phantom looked around and listened to the mob approaching,

'Go now, don't let them find you!
Take the boat, swear to me never to tell!

The secrets you know of the angel in Hell!'

He looked to the embracing couple and screamed at them,

'GO! GO NOW AND LEAVE ME!'

He watched as Phineas and Isabella sprung to their feet and run towards the boat. The Phantom turned and walked over to where his organ was. He heard a faint sound of his music box, playing the oh so familiar tune he made it to play. He felt a tear falling down his cheek as he knelt down to it and began singing softly with it,

'Masquerade… paper faces on parade.
Masquerade… hide your face
so the world will never find you…'

He suddenly heard a set of footsteps behind him. He turned to look and saw that it was Isabella. He gasped lightly when he saw her and smiled lovingly to her,

'Isabella, I love you…'

She looked sadly down at him and showed him the ring he had given her on her left hand. His smile fell as he watched her slip it off her finger and slowly take his hand. She placed the ring in his palm and closed his hand around it. She then leaned down and tenderly kissed his hand before releasing it. The Phantom felt more tears falling down his face as he watched her turn to leave. When he couldn't see her anymore. He looked down at the ring in his hand and held it to his heart. He sobbed lightly when he heard the two lovers singing to each other as they floated away on the boat,

'Say you'll share with me,

One love, one lifetime,
say the word and I will follow you,
Share each day with me each night each morning…'

Once he couldn't hear them anymore, the Phantom rose from his spot and cried out to the darkness,

'You alone can make my song take flight!
It's over now, the music of the night!'

He suddenly picked up a golden goblet and raised it high. He let it fall and watched as it shattered the mirror he was aiming for. He continued smashing his mirrors and watched as his reflection shattered before him. He finally hit a mirror that shattered and led to a secret passageway. He dropped the goblet and looked around sadly once more before walking through the passageway, closing it off with a curtain behind him.

The mob arrived and were now looking around in wonder at the sight before them. Among them was Candace, who was looking for Isabella. She looked around the labyrinth and gasped slightly when her eyes caught sight of something. She approached slowly towards the small object and picked it up. It was the Phantom's mask… she looked around for the owner of it, but he wasn't here.

He was gone forever, never wanting to be found…

~ THE END ~

Child of the wilderness
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness

Who will be there for you
Comfort and care for you
Learn to be lonely
Learn to be your one companion

Never dreamed out in the world
There are arms to hold you
You've always known your heart was on its own

So laugh in your loneliness
Child of the wilderness
Learn to Be lonely
Learn how to love life that is lived alone

Learn to be lonely
Life can be lived life can be loved alone

Why does the ending always make me want to cry? I feel so bad for the Phantom, even after all he did... geez. Okay so two things. First, I may be looking to putting the sequel to POTO in PnF form as well (possibly!) and second, thanks to Sierra-275 I am also going to make a PnF/Titanic story in honor of the 100th anniversary. No it's NOT going to be like the movie with Jack and Rose, I'm going to try and make it different... so those two things will be worked on in the near future...

Thank you so much for reading! XD And thanks for the over 100 reviews!
