8:00 am
Present day
3rd Pov
Y/n wakes up in a cold sweat at his dorm.
He can't stop thinking about the newspaper.
That murderer he read about wouldn't leave his mind.
He was taken from his thought when he heard a knock on his door
When y/n goes to open it he's greeted by his father.
Hans: "Sup y/n, ready for work... bedhead?"
I turned red out of embarrassment.
Y/n: "oh be quiet"
Hans: "ah, just a little Schadenfreude"
Just then y/n heard something over the intercom
Intercom: "Will y/n L/n go to the boss's office? Thank you."
Y/n: "well, nice talking to you dad."
Hans: "Yep, see you later junge"
-5 minutes later-
Y/n: "so boss, what do you need me for?"
Boss (we'll call him, Pete)
Pete: "Well y/n, sounds that word got out of your sharpshooting and seems you've caught the attention of the Apex Games!"
Y/n sat in awe of what his boss had just told him... How?
It seems Pete read his mind and told him just exactly that
Pete: "Someone took the camera footage of all of your weapons tests and tactics taken at the outdoor range. We don't know who did it, bu-"
Just then an alarm went off.
The boss's office went in lockdown and the windows blacked out with steel panels being dropped in. The door was then sealed.
Alarm system: "INTRUDER ALERT: AN UNKNOWN ENTITY HAS BREACHED THE BUILDING"
Y/n's eyes widened...
It couldn't be.
The boss and y/n waited in the office hearing screams outside of the room.
Some begged for their life.
Some, begged to God.
Others, would try to reason with "it"
And some thought that is was their culture's "boogey man."
-Hans' Pov-
I stood working on my computer, plugging in the results of y/n's Test with the sentinel.
The alarm went off.
And immediately, I know who it was.
It was him.
He had come to reap the souls of the Hammond building.
I could only wonder about y/n. If he was safe, if he was calm, If he would survive.
The building went silent.
I hear... a knock on my door.
So one would knock in this situation.
I say playfully, "Come in!"
The doorknob slowly opens.
???: "Hello old friend"
"Hallo."
It was him.
Revenant.
He turned is hand into the signature blade, and lunged toward me, but stopped.
Revenant: "Tell me where he is."
"Who? Y/n? That is the only thing I won't tell you."
Revenant: "Then, this will end up much worse than I expected."
"Either way, it ends with me dead."
It laughed.
It fucking laughed.It immediately slammed the hand blade into my stomach. He twisted his hand earning a scream from me.
Revenant: "Say hi to Adolf for me when you see him in hell."
He turned and walked out the door.
-y/n Pov-
Alarm system: "ENTITY HAS LEFT THE BUILDING. LOCKDOWN IS DEACTIVATED."
I walked out of the office and saw no life.
Death. Death everywhere.
I immediately sprinted to my father's office
I saw him there, still in his chair. It made me think he was fine. But I saw a pool of blood at his feet.
Is went over to hold him In my arms
Hans: "it was him. Revenant."
I looked at him with rage in my eyes.
He saw this hand reached up to me face.
Hans: "My boy. My son. Don't cry. It was just my time. I am old. It was coming sooner or later."
Y/n: "Dad... I love you so much."
Hans smiled. His salt and pepper beard bender with it.
Hans: "My son. It's all ok. Remember what your boss told you? The Apex Games have your attention. Be proud my son."
I looked at him confused, when a single tear rolled down his cheek. I realized that it was him. He stole the camera footage and gave it to them. He recommended me.
He saw this and knew I was in shock. He put his finger to my lips as to hush me.
Hans: "there are no words to speak. Go. Contend in the games. Do it for me. Have some good Schadenfreude while your at it. Just know. I love you."
(Author's note: Schadenfreude means malicious joy, or taking joy in other's misfortune, in German, which is Hans' ethnicity.)
That day was all I could think of for 3 weeks.
Those last words echoed in my mind. I went to go check my mail in my black hoodie and grey sweatpants. I had moved into my father's home. His wife moved away to some butt fuck of nowhere, leaving the house to me.
I checked my mailbox and saw a letter from the Apex games, with their logo on it as well.
"Hello, y/n l/n, we have taken notice in your father's death and we are very sorry. However, the man responsible for your death is a contender in the games. This is your change to get revenge. Redemption. Included with this letter in a forum that you will fill out to apply for the games. You will be put in regardless, but we need your information.
Sincerely, the Apex Games."
My eyes lit up. I knew this was it. I knew I had to do this.
