Hello Creaturess of the Night here. For those of you that have read my other stories I'm sorry I haven't update in like a year but I kind of lost inspiration for them but now that I have it back it's now trying to think up of ideas for them. So while I do that I decided to be stupid and add another story to that. I'm obessed with The Phantom of the Opera and I read about Love Never Dies on .com and I thought of a new twist for it so here it is. Hope you Enjoy. Disclamier- I do not own The Phantom of the Opera...unfortuantely=p. P.S. Sorry about the paragraphing it's a work in progress. Rated T for language and some violence later on. Thanks!
A skinny, graceful, elegant young blonde woman ignored the child's cries as she dragged him down the pier. Those two would be Meg Giry and Gustave Daae and he was trying to get out of Meg's grip and crying out "Please let me go Meg I want my mom." Meg yanked him along and replied "I wanted the Phantom to notice me but that never happened the world is just cold like that." She heard an angry angelic voice shout "MEG STOP!" The same voice that belonged to the man that caused her to be here and she let Gustave go and he ran off to Christine her longtime friend and his mother as Meg spun around and glared at the voice that belonged to the one and only The Phantom of the Opera.
She glared at him and pulled out a pistol and pointed it at him and asked "Stop what interrupting your wonderful time with Christine." The Phantom said "Give me the gun Meg." The Phantom gently took a step and continued on saying "Give me the hurt, and the pain, and give me the gun Meg." She just put her finger on the trigger and glared at him ready to shoot him. He stepped a little closer and Meg was getting ready to pull the trigger and The Phantom said "Give me the gun Meg. Give me the blame for not seeing the things that you've done Meg. Give me the chance to see you clear at last." She let her guard down a little and asked "See me clear at last?" She let the gun down a little and The Phantom walked cautiously, and slowly up to her and put his hands on her arms.
He said softly and gently "You feel ugly you feel used, you feel broken you feel bruised. Ah but me, I can see, all the beauty underneath." She looked down with tears glistening in her eyes and he put his fingers under her chin and lifted it to look into her eyes and she whispered "Yes." He kept her head looking into his eyes and they were gentle and caring as he continued saying "You've been robbed of love and pride, been ignored and pushed aside. Even so, I still know, there is beauty underneath." A tear slipped down her cheek and he wiped it away quickly she barely uttered a whispered "Yes." He looked into her eyes gentle and said "Diamonds never sparkle bright, if they aren't set just right." He put his hands on her arms and continued saying "Beauty sometimes goes unseen we can't all be like Christine." She ripped away from his grip and started shaking in anger with angry tears streaming down her cheeks. She started waving the gun around and yelled "Christine! Christine! Always Christine! She is the only person you care about besides yourself and now I'm going to pay for it for you since I never going to be like her." Erik said "Just please put the gun down Meg." She backed away from him and stopped about a good 3 feet away from him.
She started waving the gun around and asked "Why can't you think about anyone else besides yourself?" She didn't get a reply when there was a shot heard and everyone looked and saw that Erik had a hand on his stomach and there was red seeping around it. Meg glared at him and said "You deserve that." Erik winced when he breathed to speak and replied "I know Meg, I'm sorry that I didn't see you clearly." She glared at him and said "It's too late for that now." They heard running footsteps and they looked up to see Raoul running towards them and he stopped and said "I heard a gunshot and I was wondering if Christine was okay." He froze when he saw Meg shaking with the gun pointed at everyone and had angry tears rolling down her cheeks. Erik turned to her and said "Please Meg put down the gun." She pulled the trigger again and there was a scream and silence followed after it. They turned and saw Christine kneeling on the ground next to a bleeding Viscount.
He whispered "I love you Christine, I'm sorry for everything and you should have picked your angel from the beginning he truly deserves you and he really loves you." Christine said "I love you too Raoul." Raoul reached up and touched her cheek and said "I know Christine but I know you love The Phantom more and when I'm gone I want you to be with him you were going to before we had Gustave anyway so I love you Christine." She whispered "I love you too Raoul." Raoul turned to the Phantom and asked "Will you take care of her Monsieur?" Erik winced when talking but replied "Of course I will even if my life depended on it." Raoul's body went limp and his eyes fluttered closed and Christine and Gustave broke down crying while Erik went over to her and held her with one hand and holding his own wound with his other. Gustave asked "Momma why did Meg shoot papa?" Christine looked at him and said "I know this is a bad time but you're real father is still alive he is the Phantom." Gustave looked at Erik who sat there watching him and Gustave walked up to him and pulled his mask off and wrapped his arms around him holding his mask tightly.
