Shadows:

Night had fallen over Agrabah, and all was tranquil, save for a tall man slithering around in the poor part of the city under the darkness. As the man moved along the buildings his eyes darted back and forth ensuring he was not being followed. He eventually found what he wanted and slowly opened a hidden door, creeping in and silently shutting it. As the man turned and descended the damp and dimly lit stairway a gravelly voice emitted from his shoulder.

"Jafar, what are we doing here? Why aren't we back at the palace? Seriously, why are we here?"

"Patience Iago, Patience. What I seek will come as we enter the darkness. The shadow shall be our cover and our ally. No one shall see us so-"

"There's a surprise! I'm going to die, from that surprise! Who knew that the shadows conceal you! What a- MRPPHFFPH!"

Jafar clamped Iago's beak shut with his fingers, glaring at the struggling parrot.

"SILENCE! Unless you'd prefer to be back in the palace having that idiot Sultan shoving crackers down your beak!"

Iago, who had up to this point been obnoxious and loud, became silent and respectful, his eyes filled with fear. Jafar smirked and slowly released the parrot's beak. The duo continued down the stairway for a few more minutes until Iago spoke up again, minus the obnoxious tone.

"So who are we meeting?"

Jafar looked at Iago.

"The usual suspects. Who else would we be seeing at this time of night?"

Iago rolled his eyes and was about to speak when they passed through an archway portal and in an instant appeared in a dimly lit room. As soon as Jafar entered many shadowy figures turned and stared.

"Look who decided to show up! Good to see ya Jaffy!"
