        Jimmy Casket lost his buiseness man-like composure after they walked onto the third floor and the woman, Getrude Acachalla, like he'd want her working here, passed out. He had gone into a fit of rage and stabbed half the people on the floor, meaning a dozen people. Trailing bloody footsteps behind him, he walked into an elevator and went to the fifth floor. From there, he opened a secret door leading to a staircase, which led to an attic. When he went up, the smell of chemicals got stronger, mixed in with a bit of rusting iron. He slammed the door open, killing yet another person who was standing right behind it. A female in the middle of the room, panicking about what would happen to her. She was to keep the scent to staying inside the room where nobody could smell it. Where his secret could be safe, his larger secret.

        "YOU STUPID WORTHLESS HUMAN BEING!" Jimmy screamed at the woman, making her flinch. "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO KEEP THE SCENT CONTAINED BUT OF COURSE YOU LET IT SEEP ALL OVER THE BUILDING SO THE LATEST PERSON I WAS GUIDING PASSED OUT!" 

        "I-I-I'm s-sorry M-Mister C-Casket... the smell of something is just really hard to..." She trailed off, not wanting to end her job and her future. "contain." she peeped at the end, almost so quietly that Jimmy could't hear.

        "I DON'T CARE HOW HARD IT IS TO CONTAIN! I HIRED YOU FOR A REASON! NOW GET OUT OF THIS BUILDING BY THE TIME I COUNT TO THIRTY!" Jimmy Casket yelled, his red eyes flashing, and everybody else in the building covering their ears. he began to count to thirty, like he said. Sadly for him, the woman made it out of the building in time. Taking a deep breath, he began to close many of his airtight containers around a large vat giving off a wretched stench of chemicals.

        "All the people I hire are no good at this. I give them simple instructions: CLOSE THE AIRTIGHT DOORS, AND OCCASIONALLY OPEN THEM WHILE KEEPING YOUR DOOR TIGHTLY SEALED. Is it really that hard?" he mumbled to himself, and giving an annoyed shake of his head. His eye twitched. He grabbed Knifey and cut his arm. Johnny Ghost is not coming out if I have anything to say about it...
