As Detective Trent, and Olivine were still in the maze, they made their way across the maze, without running into a ton of dead ends. Lucky for the Detective, Olivine knows about the maze, and where to go.

"How did you learn know which way to go in here?" Trent asked. "When I was a kid, and did maze puzzles, I could figure them out just with either a pencil, or crayon. Up close, it's just confusing." "The councilmen taught me, before I headed back to humanity to continue my quest," Olivine answered. "Now let me do the talking."

By the time the two reached the center of the maze, where they found 4 green robbed men wearing Cthulhu masked, and 1 with a black robe which was Octavius, the head of the council. Octavius, and the other councilmen noticed the two coming into the center of the maze. "Ah Olivine," Octavius said. "It's been centuries since we last would reunite, and I believe this man would be the chosen one, worthy of being the Cthulhu sniper, and receiving the rifle."

"He is, your excellency," Olivine explained, and revealed the tentacle marks on Detective Trent's arm. "How am I the only one who just found out about them?" Trent asked. "The great Cthulhu placed those marks on you, after discovering you in a den outside the coast of New Orleans," Octavius explained. "What?" Trent asked. "It's true," Olivine answered. "The truth is that the council located you as an infant child, and brought you to America during their travels, when they knew you would be chosen."

"It all started 6 months after your own birth," Octavius said. "Your father was the previous Cthulhu Sniper, who has retired, after we erased his memories of being the previous champion. Afterwards, he got married, and had you, but one day, the poor soul's luck ran out. Everyone was unaware of who murdered them, but days passed, you were abandoned in a swamp, and found by our lord Cthulhu. He brought you to us, and left his tentacle marks on your right arm, having you destined to be the next chosen one. Unfortunately, we were too unfit to raise you, so the best idea was for you to be sent to another innocent family."

"What a shame," Trent said. "So, how do we do this ceremony thing?" "Well to tell you the truth, it's less of a ceremony, and more of a proposal," Octavius explained. "Wait here." Detective Trent, watched as the Councilmen brought a giant green oval shaped chair, that had a rack attached to it. On that rack was a black sniper rifle, with a green glowing energy bullet holder instead of bullets. "All you have to do is get naked, and enter this egg," Octavius explained. "Sounds easy enough," Trent said. "You'll come out in five minutes, as the egg transforms you, and gives you your newfound powers." Detective Trent does as the councilman said, and got naked entirely, and got into the egg, while taking the sniper rifle off of the rack, and it closed.
