“He just vaulted through the specter’s pathway. He’s deep in our mainframe!”

Ling turned to her monitor, looking at their security. Sure enough, the ghost had reappeared, and he was terrorizing their systems. Even with all the trapdoors, mazes, and security add-ons they had, a ghost of this skill could do real damage.
