And with that, the search begins. They arrive at the first cage, "PTM-28." And the Phantom inside is making a racket, banging against the cage and such.
"The Phantom in this one's really kicking up a fuss," Jamil says.
"Sure is making a racket in there," Jasper says.
"Let's just take it out before it tries anything," Leona says.
"Understood. I'll open the cage," Jamil says.
"And I'll blast it away," Leona says, "No promises I won't hit you, though."
"Gee, thanks for the heads up," Jamil says.
"Let's forget the remarks and blast that thing," Jasper says.
Jamil steps forward, "Okay, here goes nothing..." and casts his magic at the cage, "Hrah!"
With that, the cage opens, and the Phantom is soon let out. Soon, Leona and Jasper fire their magic at the Phantom. Jamil does the same as well, seeing that demon is strong. Soon enough, with all three together, the Phantom is defeated.
Jamil says, "That was a tough one. Any key in here..."
Jamil and Jasper look inside the cage.
"It doesn't seem to be here," Jasper says.
Leona scoffs, "Tch. Not even worth the effort." He then lets out a yawn, "...I'm startin' to feel a little sluggish." and sits on the cage, "Whew..."
Jamil questions, "Leona, why are you sitting on top of the open cage? Are you seriously about to fall asleep?"
"So what if l am?" Leona responds.
"That's not funny. We need to hurry," Jamil says.
"He's right. This is no time for a cat nap," Jasper says, sternly.
"Oh, relax. I'm not fallin' asleep, but times like these are when you need breaks most of all," Leona says, "You should take five while you can."
Jamil and Jasper turn to each other, and decide to rest a bit before continuing.
After resting, the group heads to the next cage, "PTM-58", and like the first cage, this one has been making a fuss.
"The Phantom in that cage has been acting up for a while now," Jamil says. "It might burst out the moment I open the door. Better be careful. Okay, here goes." And Jamil casts his magic, "...НААН!"
With a single attack on the magic, the Phantom comes out and lets out a, "GRAAAGH!"
Leona and Jasper then fire their magic at the Phantom. And for some reason, Leona almost hit Jamil, but mananges to graze his hair.
Jamil cries out, "Hey, that grazed my hair! I was already on my guard, but I didn't think he'd aim a literal hair's breadth away from me..." And soon grows annoyed. He's totally enjoying this. Argh; I better just deal with this Phantom!"
The three continue to fight the Phantom and manage to defeat it, and it melted into a puddle.
"Is the key there?" Leona asks
"Not that I can see. But I'd like to go back to something for a moment...." Jamil says.
Then glares at Leona, "May I ask why you're firing spells at me?"
"Yeah. What was that for?" Jasper questions.
"Simple —if you relax your guard and assume someone's gonna cover you, it could be the last mistake you ever make," Leona answers. "So I'm remindin' you to stay alert at all times. It's my way of bein' nice."
