~Flashback~
"What did he made you do?"
"Just some malfunctions here and there, all things relating to Black, White made me get Black's tablet, guess Black was close to figuring out what was White up to "
"Do you have any proof against White?"
"Yes"
"Give it to me"
"No, why would I? What do I get out of it?" he asked.
"Are you trying to negotiate? Do you think you are in a position to negotiate?" She ran a hand through her hair.
"Yes I do actually. I'll just expose you"
"So silly, you chose the hard way" Cyan pointed her finger. She messed up her hair and hit her head on the wall.
"What the hell are you doing? Are you crazy!?" he asked horrified by her actions.
She got close to him and whispered, "Do you actually think they'll believe you?" she untied his hands. "Show me what you got"
Purple pushed her back and hit her face, Cyan chuckled wiping the blood on her lips. "Is that all?" He pushed her against the door and brought his hands to her neck choking her hard. At the right time, she reached for the door handle and pushed it open, which coincidently hit Lime who was walking by.
"Oh my god! what are you doing? let her go!" Lime tried to peel off his hands. In a minute Red and Yellow got there and helped her. Before Purple could even comprehend the shock and the betrayal, he was pushed to the ejection door. He yelled but they couldn't hear him. He saw Cyan smirking, he pointed at her but no one was ready to listen to him. Just like that, he was ejected into space.
A couple of days later while snooping around Purple's room, she found a file stuck to the underside of his bed. It was the real case file, it had the details of what really happened. Turns out it was an inside job among humans and had nothing to do with Imposters. Her blood boiled, but she tried to keep her anger down. Skimming through the file, she came across the information about the attack on schools, the details of the students who were killed were given, that's when her eyes landed on someone who looked like Lime, that's when she realized. 'This is Red's sister, I can use it against him.' She hid the file safely in her room and got into White's room.
Soon she found out all the missing pieces of her puzzle, White was responsible for her mother's death. They knew each other before hand, her mom trusted him but he ended up betraying her. She decided to go over the files in her room. Just as she was about to leave, something caught her eyes, a bunch of different folders with their names on it. She grabbed them and got to her room.
She took a look at the folders for about an hour, it looked like White had this planned, if anything went wrong in space he had someone to blame it on, those folders had fake details about each and every one of them. It was convincing and anyone could believe that they were the bad ones. She picked up her folder and threw it in the trash and lit it up. She watched it burn.
She watched the fire. Just like the flames consumed the air and grew bigger, the rage inside her consumed her heart. She heard a distant echo of her mom's memory saying "don't ever become a victim of rage as it will destroy you from the inside" but she couldn't stop herself from being consumed even when the hot flames were itching her skin and her body commanding her to take a step back, she couldn't help herself.
That's when she snapped. She was completely consumed by rage. She didn't want to plan her kills anymore, she just wanted to kill every single one of them. She marched towards White's workroom, she was about to barge in but stopped when she heard Pink's voice.
"What do you mean?" Pink asked.
"It's true, Purple wasn't the Imposter and someone out there is the real Imposter"
"What should we do?"
"We should kill all four of them." White said.
"No! we are not killing anyone, they are a bunch of good kids and I won't stand by and watch you commit crimes just like you pinned your mistake on the Imposters" Pink walked out and turned to the right hallway only to be met with a furious Cyan.
"Hey Cyan, What's wrong?" she asked with concern.
"What's wrong? huh? you knew what white did, didn't you?" she fumed.
"I-- Cyan what are you--" she was cut off.
"Yes or no? did you know or not?"
"I did" she looked down. "You executed those innocent Imposters"
"What--" Pink felt a knife stab her abdomen, the pain shooting through her body. It was unbearable. "You are just as guilty as White" Cyan twisted and pulled out the knife. She didn't care about the blood on her suit. She let Pink hit the ground and walked past her without even taking a second glance.
She got inside the room and quickly locked the door. "White" she called out his name. Which made him look at her. He took in her disheveled state and the blood on her suit.
"You're the Imposter huh? I never would have guessed" White stood up and made his way towards her. "What do you want?"
"You were behind all of it, the mass murderings and the terrorist attacks, it was you and some stupid government officials. You blamed it on those Imposters, how could you do that? You killed my mom, she never meant any harm, but you killed her! you monster!" She punched him.
"I don't even remember any of them, listen you don't have to kill me, how about I offer you a deal, I promise I'll get you out of this trouble and I'll make you rich" he offered his hands.
"Humans are the sickest and vile creatures of this world" She grabbed his hand and stabbed him, he stopped screaming and fighting after some time, but she continued to stab him over and over again, even after he stopped moving and stopped breathing. Even after his eyes were wide open and lifeless. She got tired and stopped after a while, tears streamed down her face. She wiped it off, 'now it's time to kill the others'
She saw that the cams were on, someone was watching her exit the room, that's the first person she would kill, she smirked and turned off the cams using her tablet, she got to the security to see Yellow seated on a chair facing the screen. It didn't take long to kill Yellow.
Then it was Lime's turn, but before she could finish it Red caught her, which was actually her plan.
~End of flashback~
"so this is what happened, you are slowly dozing off aren't you?" Cyan asked as she noticed Red taking in small breathes trying to conserve the oxygen."Should I make it easy for you? hmm.. should I cut here? If I did that you'll bleed slowly and die painfully or should I cut here? so that you'll die within seconds, you have no idea how long I waited to kill you" she traced his face and neck with the knife.
"You keep pointing that knife at me and blabbering on about how much you want to kill me, I'm beginning to question your commitment" he laughed. "It looks like you really don't want to kill me."
"You are right. Maybe I don't want to kill you"
"and why is that?"
"Cause I wanna make a deal with you."
