As they were preparing to leave Slam's dressing room, Alastair walked over to Rachael. "Hey," he began as he bent. "Hm?" Rachael turned to him. "Why don't you stay here with Slam's little sister, Raven? Who knows, you might even make a new friend!" He beamed. "B-but Alastair...!" Rachael protested. "Shall we get going, Mr. Spirit Force?" Slam called out. "Ah, coming!" Alastair replied. "Just stay here; I've got this case, okay?" He reassured, patting her head. "F-fine..." Rachael said, giving in. * On their way back to the main hall, Alastair suddenly stopped. "What's up?" Slam asked. "Do you feel a spooky presence, Mr. Spirit Force?" Kas asked.  "Yeah, but it's not paranormal..." Alastair frowned. "Eh?" Narine cocked her head. "What do you mea-" Suddenly a high-pitched scream came from inside Slam's dressing room. Alastair's eyes widened.

Back at the secluded part of Experiment Labs, a car pulled up to the lot. "Master!" A voice called out. "Hey, Master!" The voice chimed again. Honch, sitting at the control panel of the spirit regenerator, turned his head. "What is it, Cya?" He questioned as if he could care less. "I did it!" She cried out eagerly. "Did what, exactly?" Honch asked, turning his attention back to the spirit regenerator. "Well, you know how Mr. Eon asked to borrow me, right?" She asked. "Mhm," Honch nodded, only half paying attention. "Well," she continued. "My assignment was to kidnap some brat, and I pulled it off!" She beamed. Honch turned his head. "Right... there was some child the labs were after for quite a bit, wasn't there?" He questioned. "Mhm, mhm!" Cya nodded her head vigorously. "However," Honch began. "Eon is on vacation, isn't he?" He frowned. "Well," Cya began.

As Rachael lay fast asleep on the bed, a little girl began shaking her fervently. "Hey!" The girl called out. "Excuse me...!" She called out once more. The girl then turned her head towards Honch. "It's no good, papa. Is she dead?!" The little girl cried out in alarm. Honch let out a laugh. "She's not dead; I'm sure she's just beyond exhausted, Fiora." He reassured. "But...!" Fiora pouted. "Now, now," he began. "I know you'd like to play with her, but for now," he continued, kneeling. "Let her rest, okay?" He said, patting her head. "F-fine..." Fiora grumbled. Thank goodness she's still fast asleep before she has the opportunity to spot me... Honch thought to himself in relief as he headed towards the door. "Ack!" Fiora suddenly shrieked. "What's the matter, Fiora?!" Honch exclaimed, rushing back over to her. "A bug, a bug, kill it, papa, please kill it!" She desperately pleaded. "Where...?" Honch asked, letting out a sigh. "On that girl's face!" She cried, frantically

As Alastair rushed into his apartment to grab a couple of things, there came frantic knocking at the door. Before Alastair could respond, the door swung open, revealing Paige. "Alastair!" Paige cried. "Aya told me everything; give me your keys!" She demanded. "Huh?!" Alastair exclaimed. "What the hell?! I'm not giving you my car keys!" He roared. "Oh, would you just shut up and hand them over already?!" Paige barked. "What are you planning on d-" "Alastair!" Kiernan exclaimed, barreling into his apartment. "Is it true?! You found Rachael's kidnappers?!" She cried out. "Mm, listen, Kiernan, I'm kind of in a hurry," Alastair began, handing his car keys over to Paige. "Come on, Kiernan, take a ride with me," Paige said. "Paige! Are you out of your damn mind?!" Alastair exclaimed. "Nope!" Paige responded with a glare, turning to the door. "Let's get Kacie on the way too!" Paige cried. "M-mm...!" Kiernan nodded as the pair swiftly headed out the door. Is this whole ordeal ju
