Shadow explained the story. She shook her head. "I'm sorry, but there's nothing for you here....it's only HIM."

  "We've been told he would be here." Shadow said.

  The girl shook her head again. "And he's not.......not in the way you think anyway." She whispers. "I hear through the walls, I hear what is happening. You shouldn't be here. I take it Ebony already told you that, though."

  Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

  "What do you mean by that, how is he present not in the way we think?"

  The girl sighed. "I'm sure you already know."

  Shadow thought about the riddle that Ebony gave them earlier. Then it was like something hit him right in the stomach, causing it to sink. He shook his head. "No, no this can't be! That freak up there, he's Malakai!"

  The girl shook her head once more. "Follow me, I'll show you where he's buried."

  "Malakai?" Shadow was still in a state of shock, he couldn't think straight, but he forced himself to be more focused anyway. The girl nodded. Shadow then looked at her again. "Tell me what happened....."
