Pheonix awoke. Her ears where ringing and she felt sore everywhere. Her vision was blurry. When she had sobered up, she found herself in her own room. Something felt off. She looked don at her hands and started shivering. Not because it was cold, but out of fear. There was a ring on her hand. It was black with bright purple accents and jewels. She also could feel something itching at her neck. She lifted her hands up and felt around. Some sort of collar was on her. She saw a piece of paper laying beside her and read,

Dear Pheonix,

You may have noticed a slight change in things. Your ring signifies you work for me. Your collar, well, if you misbehave, prepare for a 'shocking' surprise. Play nice and obey, and we'll have no problems. Listen to me, and do not fight back from what I make you do. Unless you enjoy emence amount of pain, that is. Tell anyone a word of this, and I swear, you, and everyone here, will find a nice home in a scrap yard. Your friends are safe, as promised.

Play by my rules angle,

SF-

Pheonix felt torn. She had a soul in two worlds now. Her world, and one control by an enemy. There was nothing she could do. She sighed helplessly and crumbled up the paper and threw it away. She got up feeling numb and stiff. She stumbled to the door and hear footsteps going back and forth. She hesitantly opened it, pracing for an attack. The attack never came, instead, there was a small flash of white and other colors. The thing was hugging her.

"Sister! I'm so glad to see you again!" A soft and quiet voice said. It sounded so familiar.

-flashback start-

Lyna woke up to someone softly poking her shoulder. Eden was standing beside her bed in her PJ's with her bow. Her mix matched eyes shone with curiosity and excitement. Avery came running into the room and started jumping on Lyna's bed. Avery's hair was a hot mess.

"LYNA! SANTA CAME! SANTA CAME!" Avery yelled, still jumping. Lyna fell out of her bed and Eden leaned down.

"Are you ok, sister?" She asked in her normal shy and quiet tone.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Lyna said as she got up. The three sisters bolted out of the door and to the living room. Their mom and dad where there, along with the Afton family. Well, except for Mr. Afton and Micheal.

They had a great Christmas.

-end flashback-

"E-Eden..? N-no.... Not you too..." Pheonix said between sobs.

"My new name is Sahara." She said. She backed out of the hug to stand face to face with her sister. She was themed after an African Wild Dog, otherwise known as painted dogs. She seemed to have paint splattered everywhere on her body. She looked so colorful and happy, but Pheonix knew that hurt was written all over it.

"I met this sweet person who led me to you." She turned around and Pheonix's ears flinched when she saw Sundrop. He still looked happy, as if nothing had happened. They exchanged worried glances.

"That's great." Pheonix said, switching her eye contact back to Sahara. Pheonix couldn't stand to see Sundrop after what had just happened because of her. Her ring began to glow lightly, it almost looked as if smoke was steaming out of it, wait, it was. Sahara backed up behind Sundrop who took a more worried and defensive stance. Pheonix was terrified. Then the ring began to burn her finger, it stung so bad. She began to cry out, but it only got worse. Then a flash of white came and she was floating beside her own body. The red panda suit was stained in black, white, and purple dye it seemed. The smile blended together and the eyes oozed white mist. Sahara was petrified, so was Sundrop and Lyna. Lyna tried to go to them, but she was trapped somehow. Then she tried called for help, no response.  She then felt so much pain inflicted on her and tried to make it stop.

"Nuh-ah-ah. I said, don't fight back dear angle of mine." The corrupted version of the usual Pheonix said.

"w-who are you- WHAT are you...!?" Sundrop asked with his alarmed and scared tone.

"I am Pheonix's shadow. Her dark part of her own soul. You all have one, and I will bring it out. The creature thing laughed and black liquidy walls formed around Sahara and Sundrop. In evaparated them until they too looked like Lyna's new, shadow side. Their souls appeared beside their bodies. Lyna was finally able to move and went straight to them. She hugged her sister who was shaking fiercely. 

"What on God's green earth was- is- that thing! What happened to us!" The little boy asked. HE had very messy hair, it was pretty long too, but not that long, not rockstar long or mullet long. Just medium, normal, and messy.
