Phantom Keys: - Vernon Scott (macos ebook reader txt) 📗

this.” Gwen began crying. With each fallen tear, she began to rise higher and higher into the sky. And then there was a flash of light that illuminated the sky. “Gwen,” I shouted from the top of my longs. At that moment I saw Gwen’s semi-lifeless body fall from the sky.
“Take her home,” said mother, “Meredith and I will heal him. He’ll be okay; he’s just going to be in a long coma.”

I made it back to the tree that I was waiting in before I left for Ayeguam. The town’s bell began to ring so I began my heist.
I jumped onto the top of the museum to let the press know that I had arrived. I entered the museum and avoided every guard that came my way. When I made it to the room where the Jade Monkey was located, I found my doppelganger unconscious already. I enter the room toward the glass case that held the ring. When I got to the glass the only thing I found was a note and a white flower.
“Dear, Phantom Keys, I find that this ring suits me more than it suits you. It’s quite amusing what you can do when you actually attempt something new.

The White Rose. Kisses.”
