"IPT-278.""Sir."
He looked up from the report he was reading and stared the child in the eye. His dark and demented ideas were covered up by the guise of a friendly, cheerful man. Only a few of the children knew of his dark nature and decided that it was best not to upset him. Such a child was speaking to him right now.
"How goes the invasion of the underground?"
"Sir, everything is proceeding as planned."
"Really now? I heard that your squad failed to take over Pixis?"
"Sir, we are just experiencing a minor problem and will be taking over Pixis shortly."
He slapped a pile of papers, a report onto the desk.
"Could this possibly be your 'minor problem'?"
He then turned around and switched on the screen behind him.
"278, please pay attention to the video I'm about to show you."
He flicked it on, and a video of Ippity, destroying her comrades was shown.
"278, if what you experienced was just a 'minor problem', why is 120, our most valued serum patient, out there killing all my hard work?"
278 was stunned. He heard a report of 120 being defeated, but he just assumed that the enemy would have captured her, not use her as a weapon.
"It would seem like that it would be safe to assume that the enemy has taken control of her. Now tell me 278. Is this a minor problem?"
"Sir, I believe 120 just needs some time to think, it may still be fully possible that she still has not gai-"
"ENOUGH WITH THE FUCKIN' EXCUSES YOU PIECE OF SHIT."
He slammed the table, causing stacks upon stacks of paperwork to come crashing onto the ground. He then reached onto his tie and removed the clip. A burst of light exploded in 278's face causing him to go blind. But he didn't need his eyes to know what was pressed onto his forehead right now.
"5 days."
He said, trying to hold back the urge to pull the trigger
"5 days, and you better have either captured that man who claims to be some kind of head reaper, or you bring back 120 to our side. We cannot afford to lose her. She is essential to me. Without her, I'm basically nothing. If you fail to accomplish either in the next 5 days, your brain can pack up, and I'll send it to the moon. Understood?"
"Yessir."
"Then get out of my sight you little fucker."
Another flash of light exploded, and all of a sudden, 278 could see.
The child hurriedly regained his senses and walked out the door. The man leaned back in his chair and took out a cigar.
"Head Reaper you piece of shit."
He cursed while lighting his cigar.
"Just had to come and take even this away from me huh, my only dream, that I worked for day and night. You just had to come and take it along with you, didn't you."
He exhaled and put the cigar back into his mouth.
" You would regret taking my most elite troops, ill make you so scared, that you couldn't even piss."
He moved over to a glass of beer and chugged it down whole.
"Just you wait you son of a bitch, just you wait!"
