Isn't it? Is... it...? Kai was shuddering, hands tightening into fists around scarlet stones as the Doubt flickered. This was about the point where all he could normally do was clutch Kei to his and shout until nothing else came out. That this even felt remotely that familiar seemed... odd. His head was pounding and he couldn't stop the shaking.
"He's... He's supposed to come back," Kai rasped out, trying to sort this through. He never had an anchor clutching him before now. "And... you're... not supposed to be here."
Two things that were true. And Yet. ... He still wanted to vomit.
Little black flecks began trickling up from around the dead teenager's body, seemingly dripping upwards out of the bloody pool. Whether or not the living boy's were paying attention was another matter entirely, but if they were, the specks were joining and building into a familiar form standing over the corpse and staring wordlessly down at the pair.
Not quite an IBM, because Kai didn't know what those were, but a Black Ghost all the time.
i'm just full of gifts
