Dan propped up a small cardboard box and put his bag inside. He cries silent tears as he crawls inside. He hears something from his bag, Phil is calling. He picks up his iPhone and smiles at Phil's adorable profile picture, but doesn't answer. The voicemail icon appears on the screen. He puts the phone to his ear and listens.

"Hey Dan, it's me, I just wanted to apologize for my actions earlier. I love you and will always. I beg of you to come home." Phil says through the phone. Dan drops the phone, letting it shatter all over the ground, just like his heart. Had he made a mistake, was Phil really innocent?. Suddenly, he smells smoke. He looks behind him to see the building the box is leaning on smoking. He runs and see the people fleeing from the scene.

"What happened?" Dan shouts at a panicked person

"The murderer killed 3 people, then burned the building." The woman says.

Phil, he is in there killing people. He doesn't think, and just runs at the door. The woman calls for him but he keeps running into the flames. Dan dashes through the smoke, yelling Phil's name. The smoke seeps into his lungs as he starts to pass out. He falls to the ground and continues to crawl along the ground, still trying to call Phil's name. Than it happens, the world goes black.

++++++++++++

Dan awakes, his body sore and still in the fiery hell of the building. He can hear the sirens. He notices a shadow coming near him. He sees the black hair and black clothes. Phil.

"Ph-Phil." He croaks. The man comes closer, when he realizes it's not Phil, the murderer is not Phil. He was wrong.

"I am not Phil." The man emerges. "I am merely one hell of a butler."
