"Leila! Where are you!" a boy said under his covers. His sister ran in.
"Cole!" she said. "Are you alight!"
"The thunder it's too scary!" he said as she climbed into his bed.
"Oh it's nothing!" she said. "It won't hurt you! I won't let it!"
"There shouldn't be so many storms!" he said. "Not so close to Halloween!"
"It will be clear tomorrow Cole!" she said calming him. "The thunder's already going away but let's talk until it's over then you can go to bed. What are you going to be for Halloween!"
"The Phantom Shadow!" he proclaimed. She laughed hysterically. He hated it when she laughed at every idea he had. Once she started there was no way of getting her to stop.
"You're much cuter in the spy outfit Coley!"
"Stop calling me that!" he said. He knew she was only arguing with him to keep him occupied from the storm.
"Fine but I'll start calling you Phantom instead little brother!" she said.
"Still better than the other name!"
It was finally coming together. He just killed a man. One Bobby Fulbright. He was to take his identity. He was trained in espionage as well as masquerading as another since he was a small child so he was full of confidence he said.
"IN JUSTICE WE TRUST!" he screamed. He sighed. "Well that could have been a little better." He shrugged. He hid the mangled body in the bushes. He took a stroll to the cemetery.
His eyes went to one of his victims. The one whose murder he still had to cover for.

Beloved Wife
He smirked. He enjoyed killing her. The mission was to destroy a moon rock. But it was up in space. And no one knew. All so perfect.
But his favorite part was having a prosecutor framed for murder and sentenced to death. He was filled with much pleasure when that verdict was handed down. After all it was the Prosecutor's office that made him become the man he is today.
What they did to him was what made him take the mission of sabotaging the HAT-1 rocket in the first place. They took someone from him. His sister. He walked to another grave.

The name she was convicted under but not what their mother gave her.
"I swear to you," he said coldly. "They will pay dearly for having you put to death! They will Leila! As long as I live they'll know the name Phantom!"
AN: Not my best story I know but hey. Now for the names
Leila-Derived from the Arabic leila (night, dark beauty)
Cole- Two reasons why I named him Cole
A) I make it a nickname of the name Colis meaning Son of the dark man.
B) Because of Charmed which one of the demons is named Cole. And at first is kind to deceive the protagonists.
