And with that, the three boys begin their search for the ID Card, and to find Grim. They both arrive at the first cage "PTM-603."
"This cage looks way more heavy-duty than all the others," Leona says.
"And it looks like it's locked tight," Jamil says."
"I suppose that means there's a particularly powerful Phantom inside?" Jamil replies.
"Probably," Leona says, "All righty then..."
Just then, Leona approaches the cage, leans his leg back, and gives it a hard kick that goes flying across the room.
"What the-?!" Jasper exclaims.
"Did you seriously just KICK the cage across the room?! What is WRONG with you?!" Jamil adds in shock.
And the Phantom inside lets out a roar in anger, "GRRR!" and starts to get riled up.
"Now the Phantom in there's all riled up. I think it's going to bust out of the cage!" Jamil says. "...Here it comes!"
And with that, the Phantom busted out of the cage.
"And there it is," Jasper says, and without a second thought fires his magic at the Phantom.
Jamil and Leona do the same. They continue fighting it until it dissolves.
"Nothin', huh? I've heard of paper tigers, but sheesh," Leona comments.
"No ID card, and no sign of the little shadow either," Jamil says.
"Which means, there's also no signs of Grim either," Jasper says.
"Chasing that slippery little jerk is a waste of time," Leona says. "Make it mad, lure it out and get it to lower its guard, whatever. We gotta take a different tack." and walks away.
"That's dangerous..." Jamil points out. "But that's what he just did, and we beat the Phantom easily. Still, it wouldn't kill him to share his plan before jumping right into it! He's just being reckless."
"Tell me about it. Let's head to the next cage and find that card," Jasper says.
The group continues their search, and soon hear noises coming from one of the cages, "PTM-477."
"I hear noise coming from this cage. Perhaps the Phantom with the ID card is in here?" Jamil replies.
"Let's take a look," Jasper says.
The group begins to approach the cage, but suddenly goes silent.
"...It went quiet," Jamil says.
"Must've sensed us," Leona says, "It's probably gonna attack as soon as we open the door. You good to go?"
"Yes, sir," Jamil says.
"You got it," Jasper says.
And Leona is right, as soon as they approach the cage and open the cage, the Phantom comes out and begins the attack. The three attack with their magic, and the Phantom dissolves into a puddle.
Once the Phantom is defeated, Jamil searches around, "...No luck, I'm afraid. There's no ID card in here."
"And no Grim either," Jasper adds.
Leona groans in frustration, "Ugh, this is startin' to get on my nerves. If it really is the furball, I'm gonna make sure he pays for wastin' my time."
"I'd normally feel bad for Grim... but I'm right there with you," Jamil says, just as annoyed.
He then smirks, "I say we make Briar compensate us appropriately."
"Now THAT'S a good idea," Leona adds with a smirk.
