When he’d added that email to the list, he added another line:

contacting police to make sure something is done

Damn.

Just try to get out of this one, Sophia!

He sent the email.

He felt an explosion of rage from within Shadow Stalker’s body.  Her hands even shook with it.  He laughed, and her anger mixed with his amusement to create something that sounded unhinged.

Wow, yeah, that’s one hell of a combination.

Probably was, when he thought about it.  She had multiple personalities, in a way.

On top of each other.

He stepped from the roof, and waited until the last second to use her power.  Her body exploded into a cloud of shadows.  As she pulled back together, he felt a strong discomfort.  Not quite pain.  In seconds, she had condensed back to her normal form.  The pain his hosts felt was something distant.  It didn’t bother him half as much. He couldn’t be sure if it was because he instinctually prevented it or if it was something else.

I mean, it makes sense that it’d be like that if the power is meant for combat.

Hm, that gives me an idea.
