Around 3 hours before Jack's onslaught, everyone was relaxing in their respective rooms.
"I hope everyone keeps their damn hoodies on...but I'm sure that this luxury won't be for long." Nathan said to himself as he lay on the bed. Thoughts of Lilith surfaced in his mind.
"Sigh...I wonder what you're doing now, Lilith." He said as he checked his phone.
He began dialing a number using the phone's keypad. After finishing, he began contemplating if he should press the call button.
"No, Nathan...it's not the right time to call her now." He ultimately decided. Instead, he decided to check the internet for any updates.
"Heh...everyone's still cursing the law enforcement for their sloppy work...serves them right." He smiled as he scrolled through posts. After reading aimlessly, Nathan began to fall asleep. Seconds before falling asleep, a post caught Nathan's attention.
"Huh...what's this...super soldiers...?" He muttered as his eyes shut.
The scene changed over to Jack in his room.
"Wearing the coat and the hoodie together is a bit uncomfortable. I'll just put it on after I'm finished with this." Jack said before taking off his white coat. He rested his coat over the back of a chair and sat on the bed.
"What a nice room...I don't remember ever experiencing something like this." Jack said to himself.
"Knock knock!" Zack said at the other side of the door.
"Zack?"
"Yeah, it's me." He said before entering.
"What's occurring, mate?"
Zack showed Jack DVDs. "I found some movies here, pretty violent ones...wanna watch it?" Jack said nothing as he just stared at him. "Uh...I-Is that no good?"
"I mean, I like experiencing the kills, but sure...I'll watch them," Jack responded.
"Let's go!" Zack said in his head, balling his fist and shaking it in excitement.
"What movies you got?" Jack asked as Zack sat beside him, putting the DVDs on the desk.
"Well..." Zack and Jack sifted through the DVDs and chose the most gory and action-based film. At first, Jack found the movie boring as the character introduction took place.
"Don't worry, bro, the action will come soon," Zack assured him.
Just as Zack said, the best part of the movie for Jack, murder, was finally shown. That caused Jack to be engrossed in the movie.
"Turn it up...I wanna hear the screams more clearly!" Jack requested and happily, Zack obeyed.
Now, both men were finding enjoyment in the movie. Jack found the movie so fun (more so the murder aspect) that when he'd see a brutal kill, he'd impulsively jump up in excitement, causing his hood to cease covering his face every time, until he'd just ignore it.
* * *
"Damn it! Why must they watch their movie with max volume!" An annoyed guest said as they marched towards Jack's door. "The damn selfishness of these guests!"
They were about to knock but noticed that the door was slightly open. "Hmm...it's not like I'm a peeper...just curious to see what these noisy guests are doing." He mentally rationalized before looking through the opening.
"HAHA, DID YOU SEE THAT BUGGER'S ENTRAILS ON THE GROUND!?" Jack ecstatically shouted.
"YEAH! IT'S AWESOME!!!" Zack, no longer keeping his hood on, agreed.
Upon the sight of them, the guest started to panic. "N-no way...isn't that..." He immediately started backing up before running off.
"Huh, what was that?" Jack asked as he was looking in the direction of the door.
"It's nothing, bro. You're gonna miss the best part!"
The guest went straight to the receptionist, drenched with sweat and trying to catch his breath.
"S-Sir, are you okay!?" The receptionist asked with genuine concern.
"Y-You huff* have to call the police!"
"W-Why?"
"J-Jack the Ripper is here...with his friends, I think!"
"WHA-"
"SHHH! Don't shout, just call them quickly." The guest pleaded.
With the guest's expression, the receptionist could tell that he was being truthful.
"O-okay."
She dialed the police.
"Hello?" The dispatcher picked up.
"Ah yes, this is Serene Resort...I believe that Jack the Ripper and his group have been spotted at our hotel." The receptionist whispered, fearing that Jack may hear.
"WHAT!?"
"Yes...could you please send officers to deal with them."
"Sigh...the boss isn't gonna like this when he's supposed to be at the event today..." The dispatcher muttered.
"What did you say?"
"Oh, sorry. Don't worry. The officers will be there as soon as possible."
"Thank you..."
"So, what are we going to do now...I'm too afraid to go back to my room." The guest admitted.
"Don't worry, I will contact our security as well."
"Alright..."
Around ten minutes later, they had reached the end of the movie.
"That was a pretty good movie, wasn't it?"
"Yeah." Jack agreed.
"You wanna watch another--"
Before Zack could finish, he was immediately interrupted and had their attention diverted by two men barging into the room. They were wearing security guard uniforms and pointing guns at the criminals.
"So that guest was right...I'm not sure how you guys managed to get past us."
"Bloody hell...is that how you guys treat your customers?" Jack said, staring at them.
"Oh no." Zack thought, anticipating what was about to take place.
"We have already called the police and they are on their way...it's over for you guys." One of the security guards declared to them.
"So you called the cops...guess it is over then, for you buggers that is." Jack corrected them as he got a knife from his coat.
"Wha--"
Before the guards even realized it, their arms were cut off from their bodies by Jack.
"AA--" Jack ended their screams by beheading them.
"Jeez..." Zack said.
"Haha! These guys got me in the mood now...keep my coat for me...and tell the others that it's time to go now."
"Oh, sure." Zack agreed as they both went out.
Jack proceeded to go around, taking the lives of everyone he could find. He would even barge into rooms just to kill them. It didn't matter what they were doing, whether they were using the restroom, or sleeping. Nothing mattered to him.
"NO, PLEASE! DON'T KILL M--" These were some of the many pleas he'd hear, only for them to fall on deaf ears as he'd either stab them to death, eviscerate them, or simply behead them. While Jack was tormenting the innocent, Zack had explained to the others what was happening.
"So Jack's killing everyone now?" Charles asked. "I'm gonna miss this hotel..."
"We gotta get Nathan quickly before the cops come," Ada said.
* * *
"Psst..."
"Psst, Nathan...wake up."
"Urgh..." Nathan groaned as he opened his eyes.
"Finally, you woke up, Mr. Sleepyhead," The developer teased him from his phone.
Nathan groggily rubbed at his eyes but snapped awake the moment the distant screams registered in his brain.
"What...the hell was that?"
"It's Jack, but that's not important right now." The developer responded. "You've got enemies pursuing you."
"Huh?"
"You know what super soldiers are?" The developer asked.
"No, give me the rundown," Nathan said as he got up.
* * *
Numerous police cars and armored vehicles sped across the streets, and in the armored vehicle leading the squad were the military labeled 'super soldiers'.
" Hey, Malcolm?" The female super soldier began to speak to the other. "How hard do you think killing those criminals will be?"
"The answer to that question is obvious, Rachel. Those scums of society won't be a problem for us." Malcolm responded.
"That's true...they did get beaten by super soldiers in the past," Rachel added.
"Exactly...we'll get rid of them here."
* * *
Nathan had left the room and met up with Zack and the rest.
"Oh, Nathan, we were looking for you. You weren't in your room--"
"Guys, we gotta go quickly!" Nathan said as he looked on edge.
"Oh, the police, those guys won't be a problem for someone as strong as me--"
"No, it's much bigger problems than cops, we've got--"
As they went downstairs, they heard Jack's maniacal laughter. Nathan averted his eyes from the murdered civilians.
Jesus...I'm sorry for bringing these guys here...
He was standing over the receptionist's mutilated corpse.
"HAHAHA! THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR CALLING THE COPS, BITCH!"
Freaking hell...what the hell is wrong with this psycho!
"Ah, for heaven's sake..." Nathan said, with a look of resignation. "Jack, snap out of it. We have to go!"
Ceasing his laughter, he grouped up with them. They all followed Nathan's lead and left the hotel.
"Why are you so on edge?" Ada asked as they entered the sedan. Zack started up the car.
"The developer told me that it's not just cops...but also--"
Just as Zack was about to start the car, the vehicle carrying the super soldiers, followed by the squad of police cars and other armored vehicles, all arrived at the scene, blocking the entrance. Many cops quickly hopped out. They were stacked with armor-plated vests, high-powered machine guns, and ballistic shields. Out of the leading armored vehicle came Malcolm and Rachel.
"Super soldiers..." Nathan said, looking downtrodden.
"Now...it's time to get to work."
