2 Years ago: 

With ????:

A lone figure had managed to sneak into a large underwater station, one that belonged to the Kingpin of the Sea of Dead. 

The Kingpin of the Sea of Dead was a giant Spider Crab demon who was a collector of many different artifacts and collectables. 

The station in question was located at the very bottom of the Sea of Dead, a few miles away from the city of the Sea of Dead which was protected by a glass dome.

The station served as both a private museum AND a luxurious home for the Kingpin, his henchmen, and his twelve year old daughter. 

Some parts of the station, including some hallways, were decorated with red carpeting and wood, the outer walls protecting the station being made of metal. There were some glass windows to look out into the dark abyss of the sea, several monstrous deep-sea demon creatures swimming by and minding their own business. 

There were multiple guards walking around the station, even though they rarely got an intruder, if none considering they were inside a giant underwater station at the bottom of the Sea of Dead. 

The figure, an eighteen year old Anglerfish demon with a fin on his head that acted as a mohawk that also connected to his lure as opposed to having hair, was hiding behind some crates that were in the large docking bay. 

The docking bay was made to fit the large submarine that belonged to the Spider Crab demon, along with a couple of smaller subs for transportation and supplies. 

The Anglerfish demon smirked, tapping his watch, allowing a holographic map of the underwater station to appear in front of him with a blinking red dot that had the location of what he had been planning to steal. 

Nodding, he tapped the watch again, the holographic map disappearing as he grabbed the metal mask attached to the side of his belt. 

He was wearing a black jacket that was unzipped with a dark grey turtleneck, black jeans, black gloves, and a pair of dark grey boots with glowing turquoise soles and straps. He had a small brown amo bag strapped to the right side of his belt, and a silver hook-like sickle on the other. Resting on his back, he had an energy ray gun that he had stolen from the Pentagram city Science Facility several months before, having helped build it by pretending to also work on the Tech floor. 

He put the mask on, the lenses illuminating a bright turquoise in the darkness that allowed him to see in the dark. 

Peeking over the top of his hiding spot, the Anglerfish demon saw that the coast was clear, most of the guards being focused on unloading one of the supply subs that had just docked. 

He then diverted his attention up to the ceiling, scanning the darkness until he spotted a vent cover nearby. 

Taking the opportunity, he rolled up the right sleeve of his jacket, revealing an arm-strapped grapple hook. 

Taking aim at where the vent cover was, the Anglerfish demon shot the grapple hook, the hook getting embedded into the ceiling beside the vent. 

The Anglerfish demon pressed a small button on the grapple hook device strapped to his arm that quickly pulled him up to where the vent was. 

With the momentum from how fast the hook reeled him up to the vent, he quickly kicked the thing open, allowing him for a quick entry. 

Now inside the vent, the Anglerfish demon chuckled from behind his mask as he silently snuck through the vents, checking the map every few minutes to ensure he was going in the right direction.
