Rocher P.o.V

It felt good to be in power. I sat at the office, the newly renovated one. On top of the dark flooring, a gorgeous, fluffy, red and square shaped carpet stood. On both sides of the cream walls, bookshelves stood, archives of numerous years, games and tests. These were also a dark colour like the ligneous desk I had. The black, leather chair had wheels on it that I would use to spin around and admire the view. Oh the view, you could see until the distant mountains, right at the heart of the city. Of course, the disgusting part was more in the living room but you could only see it if you squint hard enough.

Ah, may I remind you that there's a mini-fridge under the desk. I completely demolished it and replaced it with a gorgeous mini cellar with only the most exotic wines. It was so sad to throw away the chocolate milk and cry over the loss of my dear companion. The funeral was a joke and most of the people didn't even cry since he was a sadist with two rebels in the family. Having a rebel in the family of a noble is like breaking the law, you are dishonored and all of your titles are taken away from you at the moment of death. No one will remember you because your name will be erased from this Earth.

Suddenly, his old assistant came in. "I-I know what y-you did."

She stuttered, petrified. I did like her appearance, she wore the red dress that I proposed. "What?"

I asked, playfully.

"You killed X! I will refuse to serve you."

"But you already have. Besides, you are useful to me Claire."

I thought that was her name, anyways it doesn't matter. "How?!"

"No need to be angry at the President's death."

"I'm not- you know what."

She turned around and left as I heard a coincidental phone call from Flenius. I picked up the black device and answered.

"Hello?"

"Oh hello my dear new president. Congratulations!"

"Haha, thank you Flenius."

"I must say X was reluctant to make me experiment on the winner and now, with your help, I'll be able to advance technology beyond this point!"

I heard him sounding very enthusiastic. Nothing can separate him from science and test subjects. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to collect too many viable ones because of their conditions there but for the time being, this'll be fine.

"No problem. Have they been able to localize them yet?"

"No, not yet from what I last heard. Luckily, the three are injured from the last report." "What do you mean?"

"You heard me, injured. Two have gunshot wounds to the arm and the other has a broken leg, we made sure he couldn't run fast so he wouldn't escape."

"Hm, doesn't that impact their viability?"

He took a few seconds to think.

"We'll just feed them more and increase injections. A few others won't hurt."

"Have you ever come across a problem like this?"

"No, but the less useful one can be the first test. I want to protect the others so if they are kept in their District before they fully heal, it would be ideal. Just kill the useless one and capture the others."

"What if they escape?"

"Remember, we have a tracker in one of them? Logically, they'll travel in a pack. "Anyways, didn't you get that wall up? It's almost impossible to escape."
