The shadows of night were gathering, and all was still.
Shadows were gathering in the lane as they started off once more.
Looking down towards the mouth of the street, they saw shadows gathering.
Close about, the shadows gathered, and within their blackness nothing moved.
Shadows gathered around them, as if the light were slowly being sucked away.
To the west, where the shadows were even now gathering, in their twilight dance of death.
Evening's shadows gathered close around them as they followed the stream up into the mountain.
The Shadow had his own automatics, gathered from the study floor.
The Shadow gathered the twenty-dollar bill along with the others.
The mirror was dark and empty; nor did any more shadows gather there.
