Erik, who was know as the Phantom had left, left the opera house, with his Christine, oh he was the happiest man on earth, They lived in a pleasant country house, while his adopted daughter Rayne took over. Erik gently closed his eyes as he thought back on the past.
~ Erik ran through the opera house playing his pranks as usual but, a young girl, no older than 5 was wandering about on the rafters of the opera house, he was overwhelmed with curiosity, and tried to scare the girl. "Leave my rafters for if you do not a terrible wrath shall be brought upon you." He bellowed throwing his voice in all directions. The girl turned around and stared right at him, and laughed. He stumbled back a bit surprised she figure out where the voice originated from. "You do not scare me, monsieur phantom." She mocked bowed and laughed again. Erik clenched his fists. Who was this girl to make fun of him. " I would watch my back if I were you." She laughed again. "Why, so you could kill me? It would be a relief on my part." She laughed again. Erik thought she was crazy, but corrected himself, remembering he was the same way as a kid. He loosened up, maybe it wouldn't be so bad to have a companion could be of someone for once in his life. He held out his hand for the girl. "Come I'll teach you my ways, you could be of use one day." He said softer now. She gratefully took his hand...~
Erik opened his eyes again, and looked at the house that was soon to be his and Christine's and once again memories flooded his thoughts. Christine had not betrayed him, she never loved Raoul, she loved him! What a thought! His mind wandered to when he first brought her down into his lair. The night was filled with splendor, His virginity gone as well as hers, and his daughter, who he loved, happily accepted her, and the soon became friends, a mother and daughter relationship. Who knew that it could happen! Erik smiled again, happy how everything turned out,
