*~ Who could that be? ~*

This.. was unexpected.

Pure Vanilla awakened. He beat Shadow Milk after deceiving him into believing he had corrupted, offering friendship, and in return..

It was hard to pinpoint exactly what happened. There was a large flash, and then.. Shadow Milk was gone. He'd been frantic, desperate. And desperation made people make horrible, horrible mistakes. Pure Vanilla would know.

And in his place, was a familiar silhouette, yet.. not. It looked so much like him. Same multi-coloured blue hair, same figure.. Yet, the being laying on the floor wasn't him.

Black Sapphire and Candy Apple, Shadow Milk's servants, attempted to rush over to assist their Master, though Pure Vanilla held them back, warily watching them for a moment. Even if Shadow Milk looked.. odd right now, they could still be a problem. Maybe even a threat.

Pure Vanilla approached slowly, thinking he was prepared for anything.

And then, the Fount of Knowledge, Shadow Milk before his descent into madness and deceit looked up. Not Shadow. Fount. Whom was supposed to be long gone, replaced by the chaotic Beast of today.

"Shadow Milk..?"

Pure Vanilla called out gently, his friends, Gingerbrave, Strawberry and Wizard sharing worried expressions behind him.
