Chapter 37 - 38th Shadow

It was about 3 am when Nervous Wrack got hurted in his room. He screamed and nearly everyone in the building heard it. Most of the people were alarmed and Care ran in the room. Nervous Wrack was sitting on the floor. His arms covered in scratches and wounds. "Please, help me", Nervous Wrack called and cried. Carefully Care took him to the station and tried to calm him down. He bandaged his wounds and let Dark Dark search Nervous Wrack's room for danger but he couldn't find anything.

What could that be then? What hurt him so bad? After a while of thinking Dark Dark said, it could be a shadow, an evil shade. They are not here often but dangerous, attacking and scaring people. But they should be afraid of Dark Dark. So him and Thrill watched over Nervous Wrack for the rest of the night while he was sleeping at the station. The shadow didn't appeared again. The next few nights Dark Dark and Thrill stayed to watch over Nervous Wrack but the shadow didn't come again and so he slept alone in his room then. The shade was gone. Nervous Wrack slept well without disturbing.

Phoenix practised fighting outside on the field with her sister Young Blood. Frosty was at the bar drinking as always. She really was one of the drunks. Cherry Blossom worked at her laptop in the office. Saturday and Trick played cards in the living room. July was in the garden taking care of the plants. Sugar wrote on a cake receipt. Numb and Fade were in the studio writing music.

It was afternoon as Menace was in the atelier painting on a new piece of a beach with palmtrees. The ocean was blue, the sky orange and the sand soft. She had fun painting.
