can get back on schedule, that’s all I care about.” Kage said, before he took Lupe’s right hand and started to kiss it. “Well almost all I care about, why don’t you go back to the apartment Krystal, I have a lot of work to do today.” Lupe smiled slightly, as she walked to Kage’s right side and sat down.

“I rather stay with you beloved.” Kage smiled, as he looked into Lupe’s eyes.

“Alright beloved.” A few days later Rebecca stood in Higher for hire looking at the Sea duck ready to take off as soon as she dealt with something that was delivered earlier that morning. As the sun slowly started to go down, and the last rays of light fades in the office Rebecca turned around and gasped in shock finding Shade sitting in her chair, behind her desk.

“Shade if I was your mother I would box your ears for giving me that scare.” Rebecca said, as she walked up and flicked one of Shade’s ears with the letter. “Now I’ve come to except that I can’t talk you out of being the Ghost, but if you start getting your mail sent here I might have to start charging you rent.” Shade looked at Rebecca questionably as she tossed the letter on her desk in front of him, Rebecca smirked as she watched Shade opened the letter.

“You are invited to Khan tower at your earliest convenience please ensure that your earliest convenience is before 9 P.M. tonight.” with that Shade folded the letter up and then looked at Rebecca. “looks as if the Ghost has been invited to see the big man in the glass tower.”

“Be careful Shade, Khan might be trying to set a trap, he’s not really well known for his good business practice.”

“True, and he would have the money to finance the entire drug ring I’ve been working on, he could be the mastermind behind the entire drug ring.”

“But why would he do that?”

“He might have a cure for the addicts, or at least something that will make getting off the drugs easier.”

“Well if he is behind the drug ring, what are you going to do?” with that Shade tapped the letter a few times on the desk, and then looked up at Rebecca.

“I’m going to go and talk with him, but I’m going to be ready just incase.” with that Shade jumped over Rebecca’s desk and would have kept going if Rebecca hadn’t grabbed his tail.

“Hold it young man.” Shade looked at Rebecca, who just then pointed to the chair. “If your going to sit in my chair, your going to put it back the way you found it.” with that Shade nodded and then went back to Rebecca’s chair and pushed it in under the desk. “Good boy.” As Shade left Rebecca smiled on the inside as she put a hat on her head, and walked out to the sea duck, hopping that it wouldn’t be the last time she would see the young wolf. Five minutes to nine in Khan’s office he sat at his desk deep in thought, as he looked at his clock he kept looking at the elevator.

“I’m some what amazed by your plant Mr. Khan.” a voice said from the shadows getting Khan to look around. “When I first read the letter I’ll admit I thought you to be the mastermind behind the drug ring.” Shade said, as he walked out from Khan’s plants. “But when I arrived and found you have this plant in your office, I easily threw out that idea.” Shade said, as he held out his hand and one of the fly trap mouths rested on it. “You do know what kind of plant this is don’t you?”

“I do, it helps when I’m making deals.”

“I’m sure it does, but it would also turn on you if you where the head of the drug ring.”

“How is that?”

“Besides the fact that it would attack you for destroying another cundarian plant, even a fungus like the mushroom used in the drug, it would turn on you once it found out that people were being harmed by the drugs, and seeing that you have a radio on your desk I’m sure you keep up with the latest news.”

“I do, but do you?” with that Shade looked at Khan who only seem to be measuring Shade up with his eyes. “You’ve been quite a story as of late, muggers, dealers, gangsters, runaway trolleys, and recently you’ve rescued those kids at that camp, over threw that prisoner ran prison, saved all those lives, so I have a question for you.”

“And that would be?” with that Khan tossed Shade a paper and as he read the main title. “Falling angle?” Shade had read the story before, while he was locked in the prison Shere Khan’s sister committed suicide, jumped from her hotel room to her death. “I’m not following, if your wondering why I couldn’t save her, I’m sorry Mr. Khan but no matter how many stories you have heard about me, not even I can be two places at once.”

“That’s not my question, I want to know if you can find her killers.”

“Killers? The report said she jumped, the only killer in this case is gravity.” Khan slammed his fist on his desk as he bared his teeth.

“SHE DID NOT KILL HER SELF!!” with that Shade took a step back and looked at Khan. “My sister had everything to live for, she never had to worry about money, a lovely daughter and a husband that cared about her, even if the rest of my family didn’t care for him.” Shade nodded several times and then looked at Khan’s plant.

“I know how to solve this.” with that Shade held up the paper to the plant. “Shelia Khan jumps to her death leaving behind her husband and daughter.” in a flash vines shot out from the plant and ripped the paper apart. “So you don’t like the story?” Shade question and one of the fly traps lifted up and hissed at him. Shade nodded then turned his attention to Khan. “Alright, I’ve been talked into it, but I’m going to need access to a few things, and you’ll have to be patient sir, my hands are kind of full with this drug ring as it is, but I will do everything I can to try and prove your sister didn’t kill her self, but you… both of you, have to understand that if I prove that she did jump you’ll have to except it and not turn on me.” Shade kept turning his attention between Khan and the plant. “But say I did prove her innocent and found her killer, what would you do?” a vine crack on the floor where the paper laid and Shade just turned his attention to the fly trap. “I know what you would do, I want to know about him.”

“I would ensure that justice was done.” Shade looked at Kahn and could see the dark look in his eyes.

“There are many kinds of justice Mr. Khan.”

“We will talk about that when the time comes.”

“If the time comes, now if you‘ll excuse me sir, I have to go.” As Shade reached the elevator he stopped and looked back at Khan.

“Tell me, who would benefit most from her death?”

“No one, the money she spent was from my accounts, though she didn’t really have to work a day in her life, I would have made sure of that, she wanted to travel the world and make things better for everyone, she built schools, homes, fields for food, hospitals.” with that Shade nodded and then turned to face Khan.

“Did she happen to cross anyone while doing this? I know that in some parts of the world to keep control of power certain crime lords keep the people miserable unless they work for them, some of them even have entire cities as their personal army, it’s even done here to a level, that’s why it’s been hard to take down this drug ring, for every dealer I take down, they hire three homeless people to take their place.”

“I am aware of these places, and I made sure that my sister didn’t step on anyone’s toes before I green lightened funding for her projects, but I will make some phone calls and see some how some one put a hit out on her.”

“And I’ll see what I can find out here, don’t take this wrong, but it could also be she was at the wrong place at the wrong time.” with that Khan watched as Shade faded into the shadows. A few hours later Shade arrived at the chief’s office.

“Running a little late tonight.”

“Had to go see a tiger about a case.” Chief Baldwin looked at Shade for a minute and then shrugged as he picked up a sheet and handed it to Shade.

“Well the good news is here’s the first list from Lupe.” with that Shade took the list, it told where dealers would be as well as drops in small foothold that the drug ring had been able to get in the city.

“How did she get this?”

“She was able to get in nice with the head of the drug ring.” Baldwin said, as he smiled slightly, only to have Shade slam the list on the desk.

“YOU KNOW WHO THE DRUG LORD IS AND HAVEN’T MOVED IN YET!!” the chief looked at Shade for a minute shocked by the outburst, and the enraged look on his face. “Give me one good reason I shouldn’t leave you catatonic here and now.” the look in Shade’s eyes could stop a heard of ragging bulls, let alone send a cold chill down the chief’s spin. “That slim ball’s drug is still putting people in the hospital and you’re not making a move to lock him up.”

“Ghost calm down please, listen to me for a second.”

“You have 3 make them count.”

“We know that he has another supplier of
