Sorry that it's after Halloween, but I really want to continue on with this fic. After Rex's murder, will the gang figure out who the killer is? And is the Phantom plotting something else to do with them? Read on, and find out!

When Kairi got back to the party, dressed in a black shirt, black leather pants, a black leather jacket, and a pistol placed in a holster near her left hip, Rex's body was already removed from the flagpole. The potted plants were taken away, due to the awful smell emitting from the soil. Many of the guests whimpered in fear, for they knew that the killer was not a friend of theirs. Kaiba held Mokuba close to him, fear for his younger sibling. A song was playing softly in the background, drowning out a few of the silent sobs from a few of the guests, mainly Mai. Bakura glared at each guest, even though they suspected him to be the killer. Yugi clung to Yami's arm, his bright indigo eyes effortlessly scanning the room.

"All right," Brian growled, stepping forward. "Who would think to sabotage a harmless party? A wacko? I mean, c'mon! This party isn't dangerous!"

"Except when Rex was murdered," Ryou pointed out softly. Brian stopped complaining, and suddenly glanced around him.

"Hey, where's Kairi?" he inquired. "Wasn't she here with us a few minutes ago?" Everyone stopped thinking of the killer to glance every which way to find their friend. She was nowhere to be found. Suddenly, the oak doors upstairs flew open, and Kaiba raced into the ballroom, clutching a note, the back bearing a wax skull seal.

"I found this inside one of my offices," the CEO growled darkly, his eyes glowing hastily. "Whoever sent this must be pulling some kind of prank on us." Yami took the note from his rival's hands, his own trembling fingertips reaching for the seal.

"Be careful, my king," Brian hissed. "It might hold something dangerous inside." The Pharaoh slowly and carefully opened the envelope, and read the note aloud.

/Fondest greetings to you all,

I am the Phantom of the Opera. The demon with an angel's voice, a spawn of Satan forever banished from Heaven's gates. For too long, I have suffered alone, damned to eternal loneliness and sorrow. No more. I have come to bring you all into my world, whether you wish it or not. I have already ensnared one of your number with my voice. She tried to resist me, but it's amazing what a few notes will do. And you are next. Come willingly, and I shall not harm you. Resist, like your friend, and you shall feel my wrath.

Remember, keep your hand at the level of your eyes.

Your obedient servant,

O.G/

Yami lowered the note, but not before scanning it once more.

"What does it mean by 'keep your hands at the level of your eyes'?" he inquired. "And, why does he not say his real name in the signature?"

"Maybe O.G stands for something, Pharaoh," Yugi replied, reading the signature carefully. "Wait a minute. Phantom of the Opera…O.G…Opera Ghost! O.G stands for Opera Ghost!" Everyone then knew what the note had said.

"So, this 'ghost' is going around kidnapping people and murdering them, too?" Kaiba scoffed. "If you don't mind, I'm going to go scan for this intruder, and see if we can find your geek friend."

-Meanwhile-

The Phantom of the Opera stood in a dark room, a lump of a figure in front of him. A crooked smile was upon his twisted face.

"Soon, my chorus shall be complete…" he chuckled lightly, the mask shining dimly in the dark room.

What will happen as the Phantom plots for his next victim? And who could the Phantom be? Find out in chapter five!
