Chapter Three
After turning into his gas form Stator floated away from the storage house gliding on the wind. He was so close to getting Dimness that time. Stator continued to float, looking the whole time for Dimness or her shadow. He remembered Dimness very well from childhood. They were best friends. But then Dimness disappeared one day not to be seen again. They had been best friends since grade two. Stator realized she had gone to this camp when she ran away. He had come after her then too, but he hadn't had enough control over his powers to be able to stay in one form long enough. It was all very depressing to him.
Stator stopped floating and hovered in one spot. A girl, most likely a member of the base was strolling around the outside wall singing. Stator thought it would be best to ask for her help. She didn't look like she would attack him unannounced. Stator shifted back into his human state and walked over to her. When he was three quarters of the way there, the girl whirled around armed with a handgun. Stator quickly raised his arms to show he meant no harm to her. "Excuse me miss, I was wondering if you could help me. I'm looking for Dimness. It's urgent."
The girl pocketed her gun and said, "Hello then, my name's Siphon glad to meet you. But you know, your not supposed to be inside the base." With that Siphon gave a quick smile. "She's over there." She pointed her finger to the corner of the base's exterior wall. "I can hear her, she is very noisy." Siphon smiled again.
Stator glanced over to the corner and saw nothing. " I better follow you." Siphon sprinted off, catching Stator off guard. Stator turned into a green mist and floated quickly above Siphons shoulder.
When they arrived at the corner Siphon smirked and reached toward the wall. Her hand grasped Dimness' shadowy arm and pulled her from the dark corner. A look of pure torror went across Dimness' face. She spun kicking her foot high into the air. The foot came into direct contact with Siphons jaw. Siphon fell, sliding a few feet before laying on the ground unconcious. Stator flung his arm onto Dimness' shoulder. He chuckled before saying "Nice to see you again."
