Nobody (3)
When that announcement was made I worked extra hard and helped everyone in the office who needed help, such as memory and thought storage, Mind cleaning, and anyone who needed assistance, but little did I know things would take a dark turn...
It was late and there was a thunder storm outside. People were advised to leave early because Conflict and Stress were both found dead yesterday.
You probably didn't know this, but my office is on the fifth floor, directly under the conference room, so I was actually enjoying the silence.
I was standing at the window watching the storm. I enjoy watching them, they're the perfect balance of chaos and order, whom, by the way, have been found dead this morning.
As I watched outside I heard a familiar voice from behind me, it said "Well, well, well old friend, it seems we have an issue," I thought about looking, but something in my gut told me not to, then it continued saying "Not only is there a killer on the loose, but we have a tie, and I want to win."
My office was a bit dark, but the outside light and the lightning made it so I could faintly see. I spun around and saw him, Pride, standing right in front of me now. His dark brown skin now black, his eyes now glowing white, and his pupils bouncing somehow shaking.
"You see Humbleness, I'm the hero of this story, and do you know what that makes you?"
"The protagonist?" I asked, but he looked agitated and yelled "No, the villain!"
He stepped closer and continued talking "You see Humbleness, I'm a somebody, and you're, well..." he threw something at my chest and my body just absorbed it, then he continued "A Nobody"
He punched me, then I asked "What did you just throw at me?", but he smiled and answered "The traits of the others I've killed, I'm going to make them think you killed them, and I'll make it look like a suicide."
He punched me again and I fell back against the window, then he announced "Remember, you're nothing but a..." , he kicked me and the glass started to crack from behind me, then he kicked me again this-is-Sparta style. I started to fall out the window, but then he grabbed me by the color and whispered in my ear "Nobody."
Pride let me go and I began to fall. I hit the ground, but what happened next surprised me.
I woke up the next day in a hospital bed. On one side of me was a mirror, and when I looked at it I noticed a minor change in my appearance...
I didn't feel any pain, if anything, I felt refreshed. I got up, signed some papers, and went back to the office. I had to go back to work, and the reason why is because the voting for CEO was today, and I couldn't let Pride be in control.
He did say he wanted a villain. I guess he should be more careful what he asks for...
