Chapter 24: Disappearance

Robin walked Camellia back to the building that Alice and Magenta go to for their sections with their psychiatrist. When they arrived, Camellia turned around to face Robin.

"I had a wonderful time, Robin." She said happily then Robin chuckled, scratching behind his neck, embarrassed.
"Yeah... Me too."

Camellia went towards him and wrapped her arms around him. Robin blushed then Camellia looked at him and smiled.
"Well, see you." She said then she walked into the building.

Inside the building, Camellia looked around and noticed that the lights didn't turn on.

That's odd... She thought then she squinted her eyes to try and make out some of the things in the room. As she slowly moved around, she placed her hand on the wall to keep her balance.

"Light...? Shadow...? Is anyone here...?" Camellia called out then she fell to the side when she reached an empty space. She rubbed her hands then something cool and smooth touched her leg. She picked it up and realized it was a flashlight. Quickly, she turned it on and noticed she was in Light's office, but she saw a bunch of scattered papers and some of them were covered in blood.

"Oh my god..." Camellia said then she suddenly screamed.

Outside, Robin was just about to head back to Mount Justice or head back home, when he heard Camellia scream.

Emma ?! Robin thought then he quickly ran into the building.

"Emma? Emma where are you ?!" He called then he heard Camellia whimpering in Light's office. Robin walked in and saw the flashlight pointing at the desk that showed all the bloody paper. Robin ran towards Camellia and turned her to face him.

"What happened here, Emma...?"

"I... I don't know... When I got here, the lights wouldn't go on... And then when I found a flashlight... I saw the blood on the papers..."

She quivered then started crying again. Robin hugged her as she kept sobbing.

There's no way I can just leave her here... Robin thought then he gently lifted up Camellia and held her bridal style.

"Emma... Why don't you rest...?"

"But... Light... And Shadow- -"

"I promise I'll find them... So please... Close your eyes and rest." Robin whispered calmly then Camellia sobbed softly then closed her eyes. Robin began to walk out of the building and decided to take her to his home.
"Bats is gonna throw a fit..." he whispered under his breath as he held Camellia close to him.

In the building, just when Robin left with Camellia, Klarion and Teekl appeared. The lights began to flicker as they tried to stay on.

"Sorry I had to do this Camellia... And same goes for you both... Light and Shadow..." The witch boy said as he held two dolls that look like Light and Shadow. Blood dripped from his arm and the witch boy held the wound chuckling.
"Damn... Light put up a fight... Same goes for Shadow as well..."

Teekl meowed then Klarion straighten up.
"I had to do it... Besides... The closer Camellia gets to the Boy Wonder... The closer I am to solving this little mystery..."
