"But this is the first time she's been able to do that. It just started suddenly," Phoenix said. "And what about the other two spirits?"

"Her abilities remained dormant for a long time until now," Lorena explained, "Sometimes it's like that. People can go on living without even knowing that they can communicate with spirits. As for the other two spirits, as I said, they are guardians. I get the sense that they had been combine harvesters when they were both alive. They are hanging around Ms. Sanders's home, I believe, to protect her from a malevolent spirit who has taken to haunting her."
Ebony blinked as she listened, but, as of yet, had nothing to say about what she was learning about spirits. It'll take her awhile to form an opinion about the matter.

"So there here to protect her from the spirit," Phoenix said. "Ebony has already been possessed by it."

"It took over my body and drove it almost over the edge up Tailfin Pass," Ebony said quietly, "I was only able to regain control when my friends came after me and stopped me."
"What did you feel?" asked Lorena.
"Very icy coldness," replied Ebony, "Like a block of ice enveloping my body. I also sensed evil too."
Lorena nodded, "It wants revenge, possibly for something that you had done to it in the past."
"But I can't remember anything that I've done to anyone back then," protested Ebony, "my memory's still a little fuzzy."

Matt had followed Niles into the house and was watching him as he set up the equipment. He watched as the monitors booted up.
"Need any help there?"

"What do you remember?" asked Lorena, looking at Ebony with shining, amber eyes.
"It felt, I don't know, large," shrugged Ebony, "and I heard the whispered words, 'KILL THE BLACK VIPER...' It-it was scary."
Lorena sat back on her wheels, wondering just what kind of malevolent spirit would be wanting to kill the Black Viper. She looked at Ebony, seeming to pick up on something.
"You are the Black Viper, am I right?" asked the Mustang.
"Well, I was once," shrugged Ebony, "but that was a long time ago. I'm retired from street-racing."
"Ah, I see," Lorena nodded, as if finally getting it.

Yeah, can you go back and check the audio on those mics outside? -Niles was listening in on Ebony and Lorena's conversation.- Boss, it's that recording! -He drove over to where the two were.- Remember, what I showed you before we came here? -He looked to Ebony:- I was doing some EVP work up north of here, and picked up a signal from a malevolent spirit that said that very thing.

"Where was this at?" asked Ebony, looking at Niles.

It was in a little shack along the way towards Nitropolis. -Niles replied with a nod of his front.-

Matt started off to check the recording on the mics, but stopped abruptly and turned around to listen to Niles.

"Little shack?"
Ebony furrowed her brow in confusion, as if trying to remember her days back in Nitropolis all those years ago. She had met many others that had either raced her or fought with her during the Street Wars, but there had been none that had wanted revenge on her in any way or manner.
"I do remember seeing old, rundown buildings on the outskirts of Nitropolis, but nobody ever lived in them," she said, "Can't really imagine why anyone would want to live in those."

Well, do you want to hear the recording, Ms. Sanders? -Niles always asked, as sometimes hearing such things bothered some folks.-

Ebony hesitated, debating over what she should do and if it was really worth it to listen to the recording. Yet, mystery left her with a lot of questions that she just couldn't find the answers to herself.
She nodded, "Yes. Yes, I would like to hear it, please."

-Niles drove over to his computers, and pecked at a few buttons with his antenna. He played the recording of the malevolent spirit over the loudspeakers that were setting on stands on either side of his workstation. "KILL THE BLACK VIPER". When it was finished, Niles looked back to Ebony:- Do you recognize that voice?

Ebony furrowed her brow as she listened to the recording. "That's the same voice," she said, "It said exactly the same thing to me. It's as if it knew who I was..." Her brow furrowed even further, as she thought of someting, "It can't be him... He's been dead for seven years now..."
