''Who is that?'' Mori asked, the shadow disappearing into the floor though a skull mask clanked dully onto the ground.

"I don't know. He is zee Santa killer."

''My name is Shadya.'' Hissed the shadow now on the ceiling, the skull now floating above Doc.

''Oh. The local shadow thing.'' Morlia hissed.

"Vhat wunderwaffe fun!" Doc laughed.

''Santa was..Troublesome.'' The shadow hissed, skull looking down a Doc. ''But it isss mu duty to follow orders, ssir.'' He inquired, while the hidden eyes looked at Keera. ''Do not mind Mori. He isss only jealousss that a knight like him got killed in the firssst place.'' With a cackle, the shadow retreat back to the wall, Mori scowling.

"Very good. Now zee little children can no longer get zeir presents on Christmas time."

''The only problem issss that the police sssaw me, along with the elvesss...''

(Wait, is Shayda making this up to appease poor Doc?)

"No loose ends, my minion?"

(Shadya is a nightlurker, so he overheard the talk mentioning the minion. also part mischief maker..)

''None ssso far, but Sssanta is down for the count, sssir.''

"Joyous days!" Doc laughed loudly, strartling Keera into a small, red and brown ball on his lap.

''Yess, joyouss dayss.'' Shadya cackled, lurching from the shadow realm to appear as a medium-sized creature with features only given to a nightmare creature of pure evil intent. ''Ssshadya Nightlurker.'' He said with a bow, brown ears perked from a face covered by a skull mask.

Mori growled harshly. ''Doc, he could be tricking you!''

"I think not, he is vun of my minions. I've been in need of some new ones anyvays. Ylvena is getting lazy."

''Mossst minionss would be scared out of their witss to sssee a creature of my kind living. I am a loyal minion, ssso everything Mori ssays iss a lie.'' He snirked.

Mori just growls coldly. ''I'd choke you if I had a body.''

"Both of you bottle up your anger and vun day you vill both spontaneously combust for my amusement."

''Ssstill, there iss more pressing matters. The house holdsss sseveral floorss. You might have entered one way, but now your stuck here. Thisss place iss like a giant dungeon even though it has only 3 floors.''

"It matters not to me," he reached into an apothecary satchel and pulled out two hand grenades, "If I ever feel zee desire to leave, I vill blow zee building to zee ground."

''Yess, that too. Ssso, what other job do I need to do?'' Hissed Shadya, claws adjusting his mask.

"Build me flying machine," Doc ordered. In his mind, Dmitri was thanking him for not giving him the mission, "You're welcome," he said.

Shadya sinks into the shadows and disappears.

''So Doc, is there anything that's terrible about this house?'' Mori asked.

"It is wonderbar," Doc said and stood, "Now, if you'll excuse me, I am going to look around some more. Feel free to play vith Keera," he set the fox down.
