I stand on the edge of the building.

"Dark Night hurry it up." I say.

"Calm down brother... Or should I say Sleek Shadow." She says with a smirk.

"Haha very funny. But if mom catches us not home before eleven we'll be grounded." I say.

"Ok then you hurry up." She says and she disappears. "Come along." I hear her say.

I look around for her but give up. I jump over buildings till we get home. I jump into my room and change in pajamas and jump in bed. My arm hurts it I try to ignore that pain.

"Oh..." Says my mom as she sees me in bed. "Goodnight Timothy."

"Goodnight mom." I mumble.

She goes to my sisters room then turns out the lights.

I wake to my arm hurting more and I feel sick.

"Mom..." I say.

No response.

"Mom?"

"Timothy she left for work what is it?" My sister asks.

"Tiffany please tell mom if you see her I'm sick and won't be able to do anything today." I say.

"That sucks, today was the football game." She says.

She walks back into our living room and I lay in bed.

My necklace glows.

"Tiffany!" I yell.

"I know!" She yells back. "I'll go alone since you're sick."

"Be careful!" I say.

She runs in my room and kisses my head.

"Bye I'll see you tonight. Tell mom if she comes home I'm in town." She says before she jumps out the window and disappears.

"Bye."

---------------------------

"Where's your sister it's already ten P.M. She's been gone for hours!" Says my mom.

"I don't know." I say worried.

My mother leaves the room to go talk to my dad and Mano jumps in my room.

"Mano..." I see him carrying Tiffany's ring. "Where Tiffany..."

"I'm sorry Timothy." He says. He jumps on my bed. "I found her in an alley. She didn't make it." He sees her ring down on my lap.

I look at it and tear up.

"She's.... Gone..." I say.

"I'm so sorry Timothy... I was to late."

"No no Mano... It's my fault..." I say.

He jumps back outside and I stare at the ring.

"Mom... Dad.." I say.

They come in.

"Yes Timothy?" My mom asks.

I lift up her ring, "Tiffany has... Has..." I tear up and start to cry. "She's gone to a better place."

They look at the ring. They begin to cry and come hug me. We all cry together.


I stand at her tombstone in the rain. My family left but I stayed behind. I look at the spot in the stone where they out the ring in it so it's there with her forever.

I kneel next to it, "I'm sorry Tiffany... You were good to this town... But now your gone... Sleek shadow has come to an end just as Dark Night has."
