NO BODY, NO CRIME - Tobias Eaton

✭ fourty two ✭

A/N: As most of you know, i already wrote this chapter and then i accidentally deleted it. Therefore, if i accidentally delete this re-write i'm going to actually kill myself.

Liz was led by Peter into the room that looked like it was supposed to house someone in the middle of a psychotic episode. 3 blank white walls with one made of glass, surely so that the freaks on the other side could observe the freaks on the inside.

Right now, apparently Liz was the freak on the inside.

Four is gonna be so mad at me

"The only way to open that box is to pass the sims of the five factions" Peter said, still waving his little gun around flamboyantly.

"What makes you think i can open the box?" Liz questioned him, mischief already coursing through her. Before Peter could even start to form his answer, Liz interrupted.

"Is it become i'm so amazingly talented? Is it because i'm so fabulous? Oh my god, Peter, is it because i'm pretty? You think i'm pretty, that so cute-"

"Elizabeth."

Liz turned around to face the glass wall where Jeanine was standing, an impatient look on her face. "Yes Jennie?" She smiled sweetly at the woman.

"Remarkable. The chances of it being you" Jeanine said, obviously irritated as she studied Liz.
"Nearly defies the laws of probability"

Jeanine, this is a movie and it didn't even cross your mind that the main character was the one you were looking for? Come on.

Liz hummed disinterestedly, before she said "Almost as remarkable as the amount of people you've managed to kill"

Jeanine was cradling her bandaged hand like it was her newborn baby, while she said "Dark times call for extreme measures. You may find it hard to believe, but i am serving the greater good"

Liz rolled her eyes before saying "Isn't that what all the worst people in history have said? It's for the greater good? Mass genocide, discrimination, hate. All for the greater good" She scoffed.

"Look around Jeanine. Nobody is benefitting here. Not even you" Liz finished.

Jeanine looked up at her like she was stupid, like she couldn't understand half of what flowed though her mind. "One day, we will. We will all benefit. But to start, i'm going to need you to step up on that disc" the said, nodding to the small platform in the middle of the room.

Liz didn't move, staring at Jeanine as the woman turned around and didn't even look back at her. Taking her opportunity, she quickly spun around and disarmed Peter, pulling him foreword and smashing his face into the glass.

By the time Jeanine had turned around, Peter was pressed up against the glass, smearing blood all over himself and the wall. Liz had his gun pointed at him.

"Stop the suicides" Liz demanded. That's what she was here for, she could at least make this half assed attempt at it. Liz knew that Jeanine wouldn't go for it, Peter and all the other people who work for her are disposable to her. Just collateral damage for her cause.
