Chapter 2: I'm your shadow
In the middle of the night we see a royal person walking through the street trying to get back home. He kept walking when he gets a feeling that someone is following him. He glance back but there was no one.
He simply shrugged and kept walking while the moon light shine apon his shadow while he continues walking. Then another shadow appears next to his however a royal person doesn't know that.
He kept walking while he still have this feeling of being followed so he turn once more but once again there was no one.
He figures it is just being paranoid so he decided to walk a bit faster to get home. However the shadow begins to form into a monster then begins to rise from the shadow and stood behind him.
The royal person have a scary feeling that someone is behind him so he quickly turn and is face with a creature which he begin to yell follow by flames consuming him.
(Intro)
(Next day)
At the Shadow Garden base we see a newspaper on a table with a report of another royal person found burn to death with no clues to who has killed him.
Y/n is seen working on some potions when there is a knock at his door.
Y/n: Enter.
Beta then open the door and step inside.
Beta: Apologies for disturbing you but I was just checking on you.
Y/n: (smile) Doing alright. Just working on some potions as well as style rings.
Beta: You have been working a lot.
Y/n: I know, just give me 5 minutes then I'll have a break.
Beta: Oh okay then.
She then notice the newspaper and picks it up and reads it.
Beta: Must be a Phantom, right?
Y/n: Yep.
Beta: This is the 6th royal person that this Phantom has killed. I don't understand why this one is killing people instead of trying to break their spirit.
Y/n: Perhaps a Phantom is targeting someone.
Beta: You have a thought?
Y/n: Iris Midgar, leader of the Crimson Order. Disbite her leadership role, she couldn't control her organisation. That's why there are so much corruption within the organisation and I think this Phantom is trying to break her.
Beta: A brilliant theory. So what's the plan?
Y/n: I'll go to the press conference and see if this Phantom would to appear.
Beta: It will be risky. After all the Crimson order doesn't trust us or you.
Y/n: (smile) I'll be fine.
Then he finish his work as he turn to Beta then pet her on the head which made her blush.
Y/n: (smile) Maybe you can come with me. Might need some assistance if you don't mind.
Beta: Of course! I'll help in anyway I can.
???: I'm coming as well.
They turn to see Cindy at the door which Y/n knew she'll say that.
Y/n: Okay you can come too.
Cindy: (smirk) Wonderful, I'll get ready.
(Sometime later)
Y/n, Beta ans Cindy arrive at the Crimson order building where a crowd of people is gathered and they are royal people and they don't seem too happy.
The trio sees this while they are guided into the building by the Crimson order guards. The three of them enter the building then once in Cindy and Beta split off to look around while Y/n also looks around.
???: Hey Y/n.
He turn and Alexia came over to him and still wearing his engage style ring on her to which try to play dumb and ask.
Y/n: Where did you get that ring?
Alexia: Don't act dumb, I know you put this on me.
Y/n: Huh, so you still remember.
Alexia: Yeah and I have many questions.
Y/n: Okay, follow me.
We then see the two on the second floor with a veiw of stage where Iris will be on as Alexia begins to ask Y/n some questions.
Alexia: So Wizard, is that right? How long have you been Wizard?
Y/n: A long time.
Alexia: And you fought against these monsters called Phantoms?
Y/n: That's right.
Alexia: Okay. So what did that thing do to me?
Y/n: The Phantoms goal is to bring to life new Phantoms by breaking humans hopes and dreams. The purple cracks that appear your body were the first stage of a new Phantoms awaken. If it would've continued then a new phantom would be born while you will be gone.
Alexia: (shocked) Wow. So......why are you here? Do you think a Phantom is gonna targeting anyone?
Y/n: Yes. Your sister.
Suddenly a burst of yells erupted as Iris came up on stage with her Crimson order guards and once on the guards silence everyone.
Iris: Please, please calm down. We are doing our best to find the person who is responsible of the killings.
Random person 1: You and your order hasn't done crap! My son is dead and your order didn't do nothing!
Random person 2: I lost my wife and it has been 3 weeks with no answer!
They erupted once more while Iris guards gets annoyed by thus but Iris ensures everyone.
Iris: I ensure you all we are doing our best to find the person who has been killing your family and friends and bring them to justice. All we request is patience.
Random person 4: Patience? Patience?! There is a killer on the lose and this killer may target all of us! We paid you guys to do your jobs, not sit around and do nothing!
They erupt once more which angers the Crimson Guards so one call out.
Crimson order guard 1: Shut the hell up or we'll be arresting everyone here!
Iris: Stand down!
Crimson order guard 2: They're ungrateful. We are doing all the work while they complain to us. We are the law and they should follow us!
The people kept yelling until one throws something at one od the guards which he snaps and pushes everyone back. The rest join while Iris tries to get everyone to calm down but no one isn't listening.
The guards soon drag the people out of the room and once gone Iris was all alone. Iris stood there with signs of stress on her face when suddenly a voice spoke.
???: What an amazing job you did. The people has no faith with you or your troops. Maybe your not fit to be leader.
Then a shadow behind her emerges which she turn and is faced with a Phantom that step out of the shadows.
Iris: (shocked) What are you?
Hellhound: I'm Hellhound and I was the one who has been killing them all awhile your guards have been lazy and hadn't done their job.
Iris: Stop it! You are under-
Hellhound: Under what? Who is going to arrest me? You? Please. You may act strong and came from a royal family but you can't control your guards. No wonder there have been corruption in this kingdom.
Iris: Stop it! I fight for justice.
Hellhound: Your fighting for nothing! You couldn't control anyone because they see you as annoying, useless and pathetic. Face it, your not fit to be leader. Your a worse.
Iris begins to shake and soon collapse onto her knees then purple cracks appear on her body while Hellhound stood over her.
Y/n: Henshin!
Wizard driver: Water, please!
Then Hellhound turn and shoot fire while a blast od water hits the flames while Y/n tranforms into Wizard in his water style form.
Wizard driver: Sui-Sui, Sui-Sui!
Hellhound: Where did you come from?
Wizard: I'm always here whenever there is a stage. Now, it's showtime.
Then Wizard shoots water while Hellhound shoots out fire as both of their attacks collide then Hellhound leaps off the stage as the two move to the middle od the room and the two begin to battle. Alexia rushes over to Iris and kneel down next to her.
Alexia: Sis! Are you alright?! Say something?!
Iris: He's right. I can't control my order. I'm useless.
Alexia: Sis.
She looks over to see Wizard and Hellhound continue their battle against each other until Wizard kicks him back only for Hellhound to sink into the shadow.
Wizard looks around for Hellhound then he leaps out of the shadow and was about to strike him from behind when both Beta and Cindy aka Shadow Lord came down and strike on Hellhound.
Then Wizard turn and strikes a kick at him that sent him flying back and slammed into the wall and drops to the ground.
Wizard pulls out a liquid ring and after insert it into his finger and place it over his driver.
Wizard driver: Liquid, please.
Hellhound gets up and shoots flames but Cindy and Beta dodges while Wizard turns Liquid and sinks to the ground and then moves towards Hellhound and strikes a blow at him.
Hellhound was sent flying then landed on the ground. Wizard pulls out his WizarSwordGun as he opens the hand and places his flame style ring onto it.
Flame, slash strike!
Flames burst from his blade as Wizard then rushes towards Hellhound and then he spins around and lands a strike at Hellhound.
Hellhound yells out then exploded behind Wizard as he stood up straight. Once Hellhound is defeated he rushes over to Iris and quickly pulls out an engage ring and inserts it into her finger then place it onto his Wizard driver.
Wizard driver: Engage, please!
Then there was a flash that blinds Alexia then once the light was gone Alexia is relief to see Iris back to normal. Iris then wakes up and quickly gets up.
Iris: What happen?
Alexia: Long story but he saved you.
She tueh to see Wizard which surprised her.
Iris: (shocked) You?! Thought you were just rumours?
Wizard: Not unless if you believe it.
Suddenly the Crimson order guards burst in and they see Wizard which all raised their weapons at him.
Crimson order guard 6: It's him! He's the killer?!
Wizard: Welp, time for us to go.
He along with Beta and Cindy make theie escape while Iris stare at hee guards and barks out to them.
Iris: He saved my life! Don't just jump into conclusions you idiots!
Her angry attitude scared the guards while Alexia just smiles as Iris looks down to see the engage ring on her finger which she decides to keep it as a way to remember the one who saved her and maybe one day see him again.
