[Spin-off from Lover's Lane]
Joseph, after the disband of the Wild Fury Rangers, was starting to have a normal life. Well, as normal as it can be with having powers given to you from an explosion. That was until a...
I woke up in an alleyway, confused. I was surrounded by loads of trash cans. Ones that stenched. I groaned. "Was that....... a dream?" I asked myself. I started rubbing my eyes, since I still felt half asleep. But as I did I quickly notice the pentagram on my right hand. That's when the flashbacks happened. Images of the dead bodies and that creature, not to mention the words of qhat that creature said. It was echoing inside my head, like an catchy, yet annoying song. Except it was a bit chilling for me.
I slowly got up and looked around. I quickly noticed a flash of light and the sounds of traffic on an opening. I slightly smiled. "Well at least I'm still in the city," I said to myself. I looked around to find something that can cover the pentagram I had. That's when I opened one of the trash cans and the bag inside. I swear I almost lost my lunch. I found a hand sticking out of the trash bag. I held my breath, and quickly ripped part of the robe and closed the lid. I took some deep breaths and then began covering my right hand, making a turnakit. And just like that, I began walking.
I started to walk around while people kept glancing at me. Guess it's because I had blood stains on one of my sleeves. I sighed, as the creature's face kept popping in my head. "What the hell was that thing?" I said to myself. I felt a cold breeze coming from no where.
"Shaokan."
I stopped walking and stood there. People started passing me, leaving me some space. That voice, gave me chills. It was like as if it was answering my question. And the weird part is, it was right near my ear. Like a whisper. "I must be losing it," I said to myself, as I began walking again.
I wasn't paying attention when a strong breeze struck me. Along with the breeze a piece of the news paper landed against my face. I to grabbed hold of it and looked at it for a moment.

While the Phantom's whereabouts are currently unknown, there has been a new hero that has taken our hero's place until further notice, and is now been commonly known as Ladybug. But the question still stands, where has the Phantom gone to?
I look at the date. May 14, 2022. "What? This doesn't make any sense," I said to myself as I folded the piece of the newspaper inside in my pocket. As continued walking.
A few hours later
It was 5:58 and I managed to get back to the teen center. I could see from the glass door, that they were getting ready to close, since most of the lights were off. I opened the doors, entering inside. That's when I heard the footsteps. "Hey we're closed. I suggest you come the next-," said a very familiar voice. It was Erik. He looked at me in shock. "JOEY!!" He said loudly, running 'regularly' towards me. He gives me one of those, long time no see, hugs. "Uh, you ok man?" I asked, a bit confused. He pulled away and looks at me. "Where have you been?" He asked me. "It's a long story. I'll explain later. More importantly, what do you mean by, 'where have I been'?" I followed up. He looks at confused. "You mean you don't know? You've been gone for a month," he stated. My eyes widen.
