"What are you?" Lloyd asked, his trembling body finally gaining the power and courage to speak.
"You tell me." The creature spoke as it continued to morph, causing its feature to slowly move from being slender and tall to have a more defined body.
Its voice was becoming more human, yet it still sounded dark, gloomy, and deep.
Its voice was monotone and emotionless, yet Lloyd didn't know if that was because of its disorienting voice or because it chose to speak that way.
"Are you my shadow?" Lloyd asked with narrow eyes and a voice that would have seemed calm if not for the tremble in it.
"Hahahahahahahaha!" The creature began laughing, its laugh becoming increasingly human as time passed, yet at the same time, it became less and less human in its own way. While its skin slowly became moved from being a clump of shadows to actual skin, its voice gained tone, yet the only tone the creature used was that of a dead and emotionless laugh.
It was almost robotic.
