Yeah, there's no pattern to updates I'm afraid. But hey, enjoy...

-Part 9: Possible Information-

Dan ends up dragging himself along as he wanders round the flat, looking for anything to suggest where Phil could be.

He doesn't find anything that could help but the smell of cold seems to be stuck in the flat. It's not that the temperature has dropped, there's just a blanket of cold stuck in the air.

Dan curses as he searches the entire flat twice over, eventually collapsing of exhaustion. It's then that his phone chooses to ring.

"Dan!" PJ exclaims through the device as he answers.

"Is Phil with you?" Dan asks tiredly, expecting an apology or something of the sort.

Pj stays silent.

Dan sits up, alert. "Peej? What is it?"

"Dan, he's not here, but I think he's in danger."

Dan pauses, trying to unravel the statement.

"Are you at your flat?" PJ asks.

Dan nods, then renembers that he's on the phone. "Yeah, why?"

"I'm coming over."

"Peej, it'll take you hours!" Dan protests.

"I know, but this is important," PJ says solemnly.

Dan sighs but nods firmly. "Okay, I'll see you soon."

"And, Dan?"

"Yeah?"

"Don't leave the flat," PJ warns.

"Why not?" Dan asks, not planning to anyway.

PJ doesn't exactly explain. "Just... Trust me on this one."

Dan groans and hangs up.

He's mindlessly watching their old videos and trying to picture the man who'd knocked Phil out when his phone rings again.

He ignores it the first time but, as it keeps ringing, he has no choice but to pick it up.

"Dan, are you okay?!" PJ asks frantically.

"Yeah, why?"

"Dan, I missed it, I was wrong!"

"Peej?" He asks, concerned for his friend.

"Get out of the flat!"

Dan freezes, now completely confused.

PJ continues, "Dan, are you there? Get out!"

But it's too late.
