Cinematic Adventures: The Phantom of the Opera

Angel of Music

Meg Giry led The Mane Six and Spike through the many passages of the Opera Populaire, searching for their friend, Christine Daae. After the performance, they hoped to congratulate her for a magnificent performance, but she had snuck away somewhere. Meg still wore her white ballet dress, with a white bow in her hair. Together, they made their way towards the door leading to another section of the opera house: The Chapel.

Christine, in costume, was down the stairs, kneeling before a candle in front of her father's daguerreotype along the plague. She lit the candle and looks upon the picture fondly, remembering him. There are plagues all along the wall, each with a little scripture describing the profession of the deceased members of the Opera Populaire. All of a sudden, a ghostly voice could be heard throughout the chapel.

Phantom's Voice (Sings):
Brava, Brava, Bravissima...

Meg (Sings):
Christine! Christine!

Phantom (Sings):
Christine...

Christine smiled, moving her skirt comfortably around her legs. It was during this moment the ponies enter the tiny chapel, smiling before their friend. They had gotten a slight ahead of Meg, who was beginning to fall behind a bit.

"There you are, Christine," Twilight smiled. "I really must say you were amazing up there!"

"Oh yes darling, you were truly mesmerizing," Rarity agreed. "I really must thank you for not giving up on me, helping me go out there and sing and all."

Christine gave a small giggle and a dismissive wave of her hand.

"You didn't my help, Rarity. You always had that within you."

"Nevertheless, I must thank you again."

"So, whatcha doin' down here by your lonesome?" Applejack asked.

"Well, seeing as how this is my first time performing on stage," Christine explained. "I figured it would be best if afterwards I paid tribute to my father."

The ponies walk toward their friend, sitting alongside her. They watched with smiles, as Christine lit a few more candles.

"I'm sure your father would be very proud of you, Christine," Fluttershy said, sweetly.

"You were pretty great out there tonight," Spike agreed.

"Celestia knows how proud my parents were at my Wonderbolts performance," Rainbow recalled.

The rest of the group chuckled, recalled how Rainbow Dash's parents were a little 'overenthusiastic' about her performances, cheering louder than any pony. Rainbow originally found it embarrassing, but soon realized it was better to have two parents who were so supportive of her. Eventually, Meg caught with them all, approaching the chapel.

Meg (Sings):
Where in the world have you been hiding?
Really you were perfect!
I only wish I knew your secret!
Who is your great tutor?

Christine smiled at her friend, as they sat along with the Mane Six, Spike still sat comfortably on Twilight's back, as Christine explained the story, which she told them earlier, to Meg.

"Meg, when your mother brought me here to live..." Christine whispered. "Whenever I came down here alone to light a candle for our father... A voice from above..."

"And in my dreams... He was always there. You see... When my father lay... He told me I'd be protected by an Angel... An Angel of Music..."

"Christine... Do you believe?" Meg asked, in sadness. "Do you think the spirit of your father is coaching you?"
