*Phantom_Pyrate sat in her room, thinking about what had happened that night. Her silk pajamas felt soft against her skin and she thought she ought to feel cozy. But she felt anything but. The room felt dark and suffocating, though she'd gone out of her way to arrange the furniture to where it was rather spacious and light. She sighed.

Setting her mug of hot cocoa down, unfinished, she stood and walked over to the window.

Someone had died that night. Someone innocent, someone who had done nothing to hurt someone else. She shivered, grabbing her snowflake robe and wrapping it around her shoulders. But the cold was not what was getting to her.


*blue_shadow was walking down the street feeling a sense that somthing terrible has happend that night.


*Phantom returned her gaze to the window and was relieved to see her friend Shadow walking down the street. Without thinking, she opened the door and waved, calling her friend's name.

"Shadow! Shadow! Over here! I need to talk to you!" she paused to wait for her friend.


*Shadow Shakes out of her day dreaming to find her friend calling for her. Remembering what she sensed earlier she rushed over to Phantom.

What's the Matter? What happened? Are you Ok?" She asked out of breath


*"Yes, yes... Everything's fine," she lied, stepping aside and holding the door open for her friend. "Come in, come in..."


*Knowing her friend all to well to know that somthing was wrong. Shadow willingly steped inside And sat on the comfy couch and awaited for what Phantom had to say.
" you seem like you've got somthing on your mind"


*Phantom nodded. "Yes..." she looked at her friend straight in the eyes. She opened her mouth as though to say something, but then, having second thoughts, she closed it again. She walked into the kitchen. "Would you like something to drink? I've got hot cocoa."


*"yes please" Shadow said, giving phantom the time she needs to collect her thoughts.
"Have you heard that my brother Ricy got that job he always wanted? You know being a landscape arcutec."


*"No! I didn't!" Phantom said, genuinely happy for her other friend. "That's great!" She began to warm the hot chocolate in the microwave. "I knew he'd get it at some point. He works so hard and wanted it so badly. It was obvious he'd get it." The microwave beeped and she opened its door and gingerly lifted the mug, walking back into the living room and handing her friend the hot drink.

"There's... been something on my mind, Shadow. Did you know that before we came to Gaia... Johnny Gambino had built a tower? He'd gone mad, they say..." Her voice trailed off, but she soon found it again and started once more. "Then... he was shot by someone.... And then... Ian, the guy with the cat, had been shot too. And... now..." She stopped, unable to go further.


*Setting the mug on the costar and rushing to comfort her friend "ok, relax and breathe", Feeling the sadness for her friend, " What is happening now?"


*Phantom took a moment to breathe and then thrust a piece of paper in her friend's direction. "It's a threat letter..." she whispered, looking up at the wall, her eyes blank and gray with sadness. "...From the Sniper..."
