Ella’s outcry caused Olivie to spin her way instinctively, but whether or not the brunette heard her was not apparent.  Finding no suitable target for her mounting hatred, she looked elsewhere.  As adrift as her thoughts were, like one so exhausted after a long day’s work that everything had become a cloudy daze, or like a person lost in her dream, she focused on her surroundings.  An inky abyss, darkness that seemed to weigh on her; the looming moon, pure as an angel’s robe; the rings of unmoving humans.  She narrowed her eyes and stared at the very center, where she remembered the wave of soporific black originated.  There knelt a singular figure, clad in a bulky gown the color of charcoal.  A large, long wisp of white hair moved back and forth at a steady rate, even though Olivie couldn’t feel any wind.  In this bizarre dreamscape, her skin didn’t  grow clammy and her hairs didn’t rise in alarm, but she felt that something, [i]something[/i], was terribly wrong.

The centermost individual rose into the air.  Olivie’s hands balled into fists as she watched, one hundred percent certain that the host of the nightmare levitated before her.  When it gained some height, it showed no trace of legs, but instead gave a gleaming cyan light from one side of its head.  This [i]thing[/i], not human at all, tilted its head and watched the three girls for a moment.  Then it began to move forward.

No matter how bright the candle, it could not hold out forever beneath the onslaught of a gale wind.  Olivie kept her courage together, but didn’t know how long it could last.  Could this [url=http://wallpapersdsc.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Darkrai-Wallpapers.jpg]monster[/url] truly be a pokemon?  Wraithlike, it floated toward her, its shadowy surface always in motion.  She did not know what to expect, but out of every possibility, she did not anticipate it being able to speak.

[i][b]”Riddle me this,”[/b][/i] it demanded, the medium-pitched voice with which it spoke full of mockery.  [i][b]”Three outsiders poke their noses in what doesn’t concern them.  They vanish in the dead of night, never to be seen again.  Who are they?”[/b][/i]

It ceased moving forward.  By now, it was close enough for Olivie to charge forward and attack, were she not in a stunned silence.  The wraith cackled.  [i][b]”Well, ‘nothing’ is a pretty good answer.  Too scared to play along, are you?  Come on.  Tell me you liked how I strung along my little puppets.”[/b][/i]  An awful claw rose to make a sweeping motion toward all the villagers gathered on the sea stack.  [i][b]”You know, I could make every one dance right off the cliff and clog up the shore with carcasses, but then all I would have left would be my cousins.  What a bore!”[/b][/i]  It crossed its arms.  [i][b]”In all honesty, I must thank you three.  It’s not every day in this place I get to make a first impression.  The locals tend to stop caring after a while.  Speaking of which, where are my manners?”[/b][/i]  Gathering itself up, the monster executed a theatrical bow, its eye agleam with glee.  [i][b]”Your kind calls me Darkrai.  The pleasure is all mine.  I sense that you may have...questions...for me?”[/b][/i]
