*Message Begin.*
“Jackie!!” The old monitor crackled to life, showing a fuzzy face that glitched around the the screen. The audio cut out for a moment, then the voice came through again. “Are you there?! No one else is responding! I can't- I need-” A loud crash sounded on the other end, and there was some audible shuffling as the screen went completely black with a fizzle. “You must be closer to me than the others, because my- my powers aren't- aren't…” There was heavy breathing, followed by another crackle of static. “I… I've really done it this time, Jackie. I shouldn't have gone alone.” There was another crash, this time much closer to the receiver. “I should've swallowed my pride, but I didn't and now I'm paying for it.” He paused, waiting to see if the person that was hopefully on the other end would respond. “I think… I think your monitor's broken, Jackieboy. And… I'm pretty sure that was my fault, wasn't it?” He sucked in a breath, voice shaking slightly as another bang came from the right. “Don’t try to find me.” He chuckled, humorless. “And if you do… well… bring the rest of the boys.” A second voice appeared, laced with honey and malice,
“Found you~”
*Message End.*
