(Maddy's point-of-view):

The next morning, I made my way to the Makin' Bacon, and found Perry sitting at one of the bar stools; this was perfect, now I can give him his gift! "Hey, Perry!" I called.
I almost tripped over, but I was swept back up by a familiar lavender tentacle. "How's the eye?" Nessie asked. 
"It's getting better," I replied, dusting myself off. "Thanks for catching me." 

I finally walked over to Perry, and pulled out the little gift-wrapped box; "I got you a present!" I chirped. 
"Huh?" Perry asked.
"Open it," I insisted. "It's special."
Perry opened the box, and pulled out his missing singing voice box; "Wha-...?" he gasped as a tear dripped from his eye. "How did...?"
"I wouldn't have been able to do it, by myself, though," I explained. "Ogo and Crikey have helped me out, and I made a promise to you, didn't I?"
"You did..." Perry almost sobbed in joy. As I reinstalled the voice box into Perry's circuits, the operatic voice began vocalizing once again, and once the box was in place, Perry was actually singing!
"I knew it was your singing voice!" I squealed in delight. "I just knew it!"
"It hasn't changed a bit." Perry sniffled, now hugging me.

"You sing awesomely, Perry," I began pulling out two microphones. "But, let's put that voice to the test, shall we?"
"I have a better idea." Perry objected, pulling out two costumes: a white dress, and a black suit with a matching cape and opera mask.
"Okay, then!" I agreed. "I wish it was red, though..." I thought as I easily slipped into the dress. "Let's do this!"

Soon, Perry pulled out a stereo, and put in a CD; some eerie organ music began playing, and I sang the first verse:

:music:In sleep, he sang to me,
In dreams, he came.
That voice, which calls to me,
And speaks my name.

And do I dream, again? 
For now, I find...
The Phantom of the opera is there,
Inside my mind.:music:


Then Perry appeared in his dark costume, and I almost got attracted to him, myself, when he sang the second verse:

:music:Sing once again, with me,
Our strange duet.
My power over you
Grows stronger, yet.

And, though, you turned from me,
To glance behind...
The Phantom of the opera is there,
Inside your mind.:music:


Finally, we got to the final verse, this time, Perry and I sang as a duet:

:music:Those who have seen your face,
Draw back, in fear. 
I am the mask you wear,
It's me, they hear...

Your/My spirit and my/your voice,
In one, combined...
The Phantom of the opera is there,
Inside my/your mind.:music:


As the song ended, the entire restaurant erupted in applause; "This is one of the best days of my life!" Perry cheered, throwing off his mask and embracing me. I didn't blame him; I felt happy, myself, now that I have completed my double-parted mission.
The end. Finally, Perry gets his singing voice back, and he gives it a test run to make sure it still works. Fortunately, it does, and Perry is actually happy, this time! I hope you guys like this final chapter! ;)
