I do not own this characters-execpt for Sally.......___________________________________________________________________________________

Sally's P.O.V.


I glared at Erik as he hunched down on top on the grave looking like a panther ready to pounce on it's prey. He slightly turned his head and spotted me, shock rushed through his eyes. I continued to glare while Erik on the other hand focused back on Christine. Erik began to sing causing Christine to be  intranced by his song. I covered my ears to protect myself from his possessing music and rushed behind a gravestone, maybe if I get close enough I can stop him. I don't care if gets angry and threatens to murder me in my sleep this isn't right! I looked back up at Erik, it's useless, he's still on top of the grave, there's no way I can get to him. Damn it.
As he sings Christine begins to think that she's talking to her father and began to sing back,


"Angel or father,
Friend or Phantom
Who is it there staring?"
"Have you forgotten your angel?"
"Angel oh speak,
What endless longings..."

I decided to no longer listen to this, why must Erik continue to trick the poor girl? If he loves her (even though at this point it probably won't matter, because she's engaged) shouldn't he be honest? I look across the graveyard to see Raoul galloping in the distance- and get this he was also on a white horse. My life is seriously turning into some really weird fairy-tale, anyways I'm going off topic. I should hide because as he came closer I noticed the shining metal of none other than he's sword, oh dear Erik.

Erik's P.O.V.

Good Christine is under a trance if I can lure her away from here I'll be able to deal with the white stallion fool. As I tried to lure her away but as Raoul came closer Christine over heard the shouts of her name.
"Raoul!" She called back to him. Damn it! The trance is broken! As she was running toward him I jumped off of the grave and pulled out my sword, this fop is going to die. I charge at him but he blocks it, our swords clash and cling to each other. He's a surprisingly worthy opponent but I will not let him win! With a swish of my sword the blade cuts deep into Raoul's arm, but that only stopped him for a second. Raoul pushes against my sword with all his might which causes my to fall to the ground. My enemy's eyes blaze with fury as he tried to plunge his blade to me until-

"STOP!" Christine shouted.

"Enough." Raoul put his blade back into his sheath but he didn't dare take his eyes off me. I almost lost this battle-to him! He put Christine on his horse and together they rode off. I didn't bother to move out of the cold snow...maybe I'll never move again. What's the point of all this? I knew from the start that she wouldn't love me-no! I will win! I MUST WIN! But before I could pull myself back up Sally's hand was already in front of me. I could see no sign of emotion in her face, just emptiness. After a few seconds of looking for any sign of life in her gaze I finally took her hand and stood up. Then we both silently walked to the carriage.

"Sally why did you come here?" I finally asked.

"I could ask the same for you." She answered without even slightly moving her head.

Again silence.

"Well?" 

"Well what?" Sally repeated this time only slightly looking at me.

"Aren't you going to start yelling at me and giving me a lecture?" Seriously, what is happening in her funny little brain? She stopped in her tracks and looked me straight in the eye. It wasn't rage I saw in her eyes, but was hopelessness and a slight bit of fear.

"You are my friend Erik. One of the best est of all friends I've ever known so I will be honest with you. I can't yell at you anymore because no matter how many lectures I'll give you, will you listen to them? I don't think so. I want more than anything to make amends but I can't. This is all too much." Once Sally finished she turned her back and continued to tread through the deep, white snow. But I will not loose her! She's one of the few people who've been kind to me! I rush towards her and take her into an embrace.

"I'm sorry but I love her. But I need you too, this friendship wonderful and I can't bare to think of it ending. Do you understand me?" She nodded her head.

"But I opera house will probably want me dead soon so I might need your help. Will you help me?"
