Luci awakes behind the wheel of 1979 Cadilliac Coup De Ville, going sixty miles per hour down a winding highway. As is often the case in the Astral Realm, the world appears rendered in greyscale, excluding herself and her two companions; The Sage and Kazura are sleeping soundly in the back seat. Luci breaths, checks her mirrors, and stares at her empty passenger seat for a moment with a very strange feeling. The air starts to vibrate, and a flickering shadow is cast on the seat.
A wild Haunter appears.
It has a vaguely humanoid form, though made of smoke and shadow. Its long, spindly arms tapper off into sharped, clawed hands.
When it speaks, the low guttural growl that is its voice is joined by a chorus of what sounds like buzzing flies.
"Better turn back, Luci," it chides.
"Shut up." Luci snaps, her eyes on the winding road. As the Haunter laughs a disgustingly long pink tongue falls from its mouth, twitching excitedly before retreating into the shadowy face.
"He is mine now," says the creature tauntingly. "I will eat his dreams, his soul, his heart. You can have what is left," it offers.
"Shut. Up." Luci repeats firmly, turning on the radio. The car is filled with loud, echoing screams. Luci turns it off.
"That's right cunt, you're in my world, now," barks the shadow. "You've crossed county lines, you're not in fucking Kansas anymore. Last exit, coming up."
Indeed a sign appeared on the side of the road, aptly labeled 'Last Exit'. Luci ignores it as she ignores the Pokemon.
"I think I've heard enough," says a voice from the back seat.
