After the events of the infamous Andrew Lloyd Webber music, The Phantom of the Opera, many rabid fans are left longing to know what happens next in the story of Christine Daae and her Angel of Music. While a sequel, Love Never Dies, does exist, this is my individual interpretation of the events following the tragic downfall of the Opera Populaire. 

"What If" is a thrilling take on the classic love story of the Phantom of the Opera, answering the age old question, "What if Christine and the Phantom were not truly separated?" With a flourish of colorful characters, "What If" channels the emotions of Christine, Erik, and a myriad of other characters, giving life to a new generation of Phantom fans. 

After the events of "Don Juan Triumphant", Christine is left longing for her Angel, as Erik, the Phantom, begins to lose hope of ever finding his love, or his soul. When Erik is taken in by a young girl and her family, he finds himself in a new, high society world, full 
deceit, lust, cruelty, and treachery. Christine finds herself struggling to adjust to a normal life, and she is terrified of the idea of raising a family, and she is waiting for the day when she will be saved from her life of normality.

For those interested in an enthralling work of Phantom of the Opera fan fiction, or a theatre lover of any sort, this fan fiction is a window into the whirlwind of events following the iconic musical.

All characters belong to Andrew Lloyd Webber and A Very Useful Theatre Company unless otherwise stated.

Events in the story are made from a combination of the Broadway musical, the 2004  Schumacher film, as well as my own imagination. Enjoy!

Hey welcome to Phantom Writer a modern version of Phantom of the Opera. Now please let me explain this help better understand the story, now originally this was gonna to be like Candyman and Phantom of the Opera, later on I added things from not only Conjuring but Insidious along with a few things from Phantom the Musical. I just wanted to let y'all know that this might be if not one of the hardest stories I had to write, but that's if you don't count Michiru x Nazuna (Original) which was a nightmare to write or Dead-End's Road which has me come up with new ideas for it. And that's not to put down anyone who wants to write or are writing a Phantom of the Opera, it's a beautiful story on love, music, and tragedy, it's what I love about Phantom of the Opera, and that shines through with the Characters. And I know I can't do Phantom of the Opera without saying something about the Phantom and I just want to say I understand he is misunderstood for his looks which is sad and is the reason he became the Phantom, but this Phantom was understood but became the Phantom for what can be an honestly be called a simple mistake, Christine and Raoul are also a big part of the story for Christine being the only one to truly understand the Phantom, Raoul has trouble trying to understand yet wants to help Christine with the Phantom which is one of the great parts of the story. On a side note is this will get Mature at some points, and don't mistake this on "it's because he based it on three horror movies." Buddy that's not it, the reason is that how all my new stories are gonna be like going forward, it gives me more freedom to get away with things I normally can't with a normal story Anyway I'll stop stalling you and start the reading

The life of an ordinary girl is turned upside down when she is transported into her favorite musical, "The Phantom of the Opera," in the place of the elegant heroine. Negotiating life in 19th-century Paris is challenging enough without a diva scheming for leads, a sarcastic Persian's input, and two very different men battling for her affections! Should she stay faithful to the plot of the story or rewrite history? Should she choose a safe path with a reliable husband or risk her future following her mysterious Phantom? Told from the points of view of Erik - the Phantom - and the newly-made Christine, this story follows them both as they work through their respective demons to find love in the person that is a little different from all their imaginings. "A really well-written Erik/OC, with a lovely, smart, likable heroine. If you ever fantasized about taking Christine's place in POTO, read this." - @olivesky "I am literally crying right now. That was so good!" - @musicalsnmarkiplier "One of the best fan fictions I have ever read" - @elephant_hugger "I just discovered this today and finished it in one go.
