**A Phantom of the Opera Fan Fiction**
The Phantom's plan was perfect - get rid of the Prima Donna and surely Christine will be the only one that could play the part. It's been stated several times - "There is no understudy for La Carlotta!"
...but what if there is?
Elizabeth Bell seems like she is just another chorus girl, but she steps up confirming that she is the understudy for the role. After a successful opening night, she learns that she has gotten in the way of the infamous Opera Ghost's plans and now has to abide by his rules or leave. 
What is she going to do now? Especially when she starts to get to know this mysterious man behind the mask? Does she stay in the shadows of the Opera or move on?


**Author's note**
I know I'm late to the game with these fanfictions but I have been obsessed with Phantom of the Opera for about 15 years and have been wanting to post something for a while. Feedback is more than welcome!

And, of course, I do not own the Phantom of the Opera or its characters.

What If : The Story Retold by BlackRoseSith
72 parts Complete Mature
Fresh from the Battle of Endor, Leia finally has time to contemplate the fact Luke is her brother and - more horrifically - her father was the infamous Darth Vader. While everyone is celebrating the definitive end of the Empire, she stays in her quarters and wonders what this effect could have on her. She had just learnt she was the daughter of the most evil and powerful being in the galaxy, her best friend was in fact her brother and that she was capable of the exact same power they both held. That would mess with anyone's head! When she finally rejoins her fellow comrades in the festivities, she finds herself face to face with an old friend of hers. Ahsoka Tano. Being the apprentice of Anakin Skywalker, she knew Leia's father well (at least, before he became a tyrant). Ahsoka talked all night with Luke and Leia, telling them tales of the Clone Wars, with Commander Rex joining in to show his admiration of his lost general. What if they could go back and stop the Empire from ever happening? What if they could stop their father from decending into the dark side? What if they could prevent the destruction of the Jedi? What if they could stop the Emperor before he even started? Minor spoilers for Clone Wars, Rebels and possibly Mandalorian. I say minor because it's mostly just easter eggs here and there and the rest you're smart enough to figure out on your own. And if I owned Star Wars or the cover art for this fic, you would know about it.
