Third Person POV

Loud harsh breathing filled the alley as an overweight, bulbous white male with balding hair and fine (if stretched) dark blue suit sprinted through seemingly desperate to escape something behind him. A shadow flitted back and forth between each new building steadily following the running man.

Finally it seemed that the shadow had become bored of the cat and mouse game and jumped down right in front of the man where he stood illuminated in the bright moonlight (Picture above). Soft whit snowflakes were starting to fall down and cover the tidy street and its houses.

The bulbous male spoke interrupting the picturesque scene with his pitiful groveling "P-please Sir, I'm so s-sorry I h-honestly didn't commit t-those murders..." The mysterious figure scoffed towering over the sad excuse for a man as he drawled out "Mr. Jonathon Rolette you have been sentenced to death by beheading as ordered by Lord Chaos. Do you have any last words?"

"All you murderers are the same, a bunch of as........................." He was cut off abruptly by the figure cutting off his head swiftly "Uh, uh, uh." He tutted down at the body "This is a PG book." and with that he grabbed Rolette's head and teleported back to Chaos' office and chucked the head onto the big desk.

Chaos started for a moment then looked in disgust at the leaking head now on his desk "Every time Omega?!?! All I ask is for one successful mission where you didn't throw a severed limb on my desk!!" "Apologies Lord Chaos." Omega said as he kneeled.

"And another thing, don't call me Lord." Smirking Chaos pulled Omega to his feet and into a bear hug "How are you my son? How was Annothious?" A smile broke out on Omega's face "It was an amazing world, definitely my new favorite planet." and he wasn't lying Annothious was the ever winter planet, tons of snow all year long with warm and friendly inhabitants. Nothing like the people he left behind...

No stop thinking about them, they don't deserve it. Omega shook his head bitterly "And perhaps could you, um refill my pills please. I think I'm nearly out and i don't want to risk it." Chaos snapped his fingers and a large closed bag appeared in Omega's arm. "Of course, if there isn't anything else you may head back to your quarters and take a rest."

Nodding respectfully Omega left the room and started down the long hallway to his suite. Upon arriving he swept past the kitchen and straight to his massive bedroom. The walls were painted pitch black with red symbols and sea green and gold flecks, the only furniture was a white bed in the middle of the room and a desk of to the side with a giant map of the galaxy on top of it.

Sighing Omega slapped a part of the wall making a second desk pop out where he laid the bag and dumped out all the different bottles. Setting them up side by side he counted them, only seven.... Chaos must have decided he didn't need the eighth.

Shrugging Omega took pills from each bottle and swallowed them dry. His chart above showed which and how many he needed to take a day.
