It’s very easy for Phantomness to become angry. She’s stalking down the corridors now, little sparkles of Dark Force pooling on her fingertips in lightning. She can feel Ninetales and Flareon stir sleepily inside her mind, but she shushes them, as she walks into her bedroom and seals the door shut. Phantasmeon blinks from her bed, red eyes alert.

< What happened this time? >

< Another trainer who abused his pokémon to death. > Phantomness snarls. < His name’s Anish. It didn’t take more than two seconds for me to confirm – he’s reeking with death. >

< Did you strangle him? > Phantasmeon asks hopefully.

< I wish. Flanoir grabbed me before I could inflict serious harm. > Phantomness sighs. < I think she caught my thoughts. In any case, she told me to cool down. >

< Cooling down is boring. >

Phantomness flops down onto the bed, closes her eyes, feeling a headache throbbing. < I’m tired. >

< Can I kill him then? >

< Sure, if you don’t get caught. >

< When do I ever? > The ghost eevee teases, and phases out.

Two weeks later, Anish is in a tragic training accident and no one is the wiser.

Flanoir belongs to Jolty. Phantomness and Phantasmeon belong to me.

This is another fic set before Phantomness dies and after the end of the SWRPG.
