Days passed, and Arm mourned the loss of their esteemed executive, Pride. Lately there have been whispers of treachery and deceit echoed through its halls. The funeral for Pride was a grand affair, attended by the members of Arm and the remaining Sins, each filled with a mixture of grief (yah no one is grieving) and suspicion.
As the mourners gathered around Pride's casket, a somber silence enveloped the room. Vainglory and Greed stood at the back, watching the proceedings along with Sloth, Lust,Envy, Wrath, and Gluttony. As the eulogy was being delivered the executives talked amongst themselves.
"SOMEONE KILLED HIM" Wrath angrily whispered
"Yeah like the cut in Pride's body isn't making it obvious that it's a murder" Greed sarcastically replied
"Stop being a know it all Greed - I know you're secretly happy because you have always hated Pride and— "
"SIlence" Envy cut Greed off "Stop fighting you two , do it elsewhere. We are at a funeral"
Wrath, though unsatisfied with this turn of events, simply grunted and scooted away from Greed.
"But Envy, isn't it suspicious? Pride getting killed in his office too - if that doesn't reek betrayal" Lust voiced out her suspicions as she sneakily looked at Greed.
"EXACTLY" Wrath agreed in unison.
"That's enough." Gluttony spoke
The rest of the Sins were silenced as it was not everyday for Gluttony to speak her thoughts. As though everyone came to the same conclusion - they all focused on the funeral at hand and decided to figure out what happened in the next executive meeting.
As the eulogy ended with a final salute to Pride, an empty promise of avenging his death, as the casket was lowered into the ground. Arm mourned, but little did they know that the shadows of betrayal would continue to haunt their ranks, and the true mastermind behind the act would remain concealed, buried under layers of deception and lies.
