The Phantom of the Opera: Love and Death (fanfic)

Prologue:

I have reached the depths of my despair.... My body will burn but my soul will not rest until I get my revenge....

A man whose heart have been broken by the woman he loves fled away from the burning Opera Populaire. Most of the people on the road is trying to help people trapped inside the opera house to get out and is trying to put out the fire.

The man whose wearing a dress robe and a cloak covers his disfigured face as he walked pass by the people rushing to save whatever in the opera.

...the cemetery is my last chance in hiding... he thought. He is planning to hide in the cemetery while waiting for death to come knock on his door.

He reached the cemetery's old mausoleum just in time for the snow to fall heavily. He tried to open the big doors even though he knows he is too weak to open it. After several attempts in opening it, he give up and slump at the snow piled at the floor.

When all hope was lost for the Phantom to hide from the world once more, a strange howling wind was heard out-of-nowhere. It forms a little tornado and scooped him up and forcefully threw him inside mausoleum making the big doors open with a loud bang and him flying across the room landing on the crypt at the center of the mausoleum.

The door abruptly closed like the wind was drawn back outside. As the door closed, although with a blurry vision, the phantom knew he wasn't alone. He felt a chill run down his spine and knew right then and there that it is a disciple of the dark.

"I know you're here. Show yourself!" He demanded with a force causing him to grow more weak and helpless.

A sound of footsteps echoed through the room. From the dark shadows of the mausoleum emerged a man in dark clothes.

"What do you want?" he spat as the man approached him and stop just a meter away from him.

The man is hiding his face in a dark hood his wearing and only his red lips wearing a sinister smile is visible. Then the man spoke:

"I am Dante. I am a demon and a product of your mad plans." he said smoothly.

"Are you here to take me to hell?" i ask him indifferently.

"No."

"Then, what?!"

"Your curse completed and summon me." he said while he remove the cover off his face.

"Y-your f-face....!" i gasped when I saw his face. He looked exactly like me except his face is not disfigured.

"I told you. We are one and the same." he said in a monotone voice.

"Why are you here?" i ask again finally recovering from the shock in looking at his face.

"I am here for us to be united once and for all." his eyes turn from blue to black "..For us to take our revenge..." he leaned in to me as he whispered the last part.

My eyes widened as the fire of despair flare in me once more. I look up to him as he stand up and reach out his hand to me. I look at his hand then his eyes which are still black.

"Take your destiny and let us be whole again..."

I took his hand and everything around us turns to a black smoke. It engulfed me and him and only Dante's dark glowing eyes are visible. Then a loud shrieking cry echoed through the walls and everything went..... balck.

Christine will be mine.... forever.
