The Night Was Inky Black, A Velvety Darkness Settling Over The Countryside. The Wind Rustled The Trees That Lined The Road, Sending A Chill Down The Spine. The Stars Were Out In Full Force, Their Shining Lights Providing The Only Illumination.
As The Car Made Its Way Down The Dark Road, The Only Sounds Were The Hum Of The Engine And The Tires Rolling Over The Pavement. A Cold, Crisp Breeze Blew In Through The Car Windows, Filling The Passenger Seats With The Smell Of Pine Trees And Fresh Earth.
In The Drivers Seat Was Issac He Wore A Blue Security Guard Uniform As He Recently Started Working At Doug's Burger Barn Factory. He Yawned His Eyes We're A Fog Due To The Fact That He Took The Nightshift
However It Gave Much Better Pay.
"Hmm 10 Miles Left... I Should've Built A Shack Next To The God Damn Factory" He Chuckled With A Yawn. "At Least I Ain't A Poor Schmuck Walking To My Job" He Shrugged. He Started Whistling To Pass The Time As He Drove Through The Cold Forest Covered In A Vivid Purple Sky.
However The Road Got More Foggy And Foggy As He Kept Reaching His Destination. "Dammit I Can't See Shit!" He Yelled Turning On His Lights Shaking His Head With Boredom Thinking "Could Anything Go More Wrong?"
However Suddenly Out Of Nowhere A Deer Jumped Out The Fog Giving Him A Jump As Steered The Vehicle With Rapid Pace His Heart Racing Like A Horse. "Well That Just Told Me To Never Have Thoughts Like Could This Day Get Any Worse Haha... Dammit" He Panted Heavily.
However He Then Saw It, The Factory Loomed Large In The Distance, A Massive Edifice Of Steel And Concrete. Its Windows Glowed A Bright Orange, Lit From Within By The Fires Of The Furnaces. The Air Was Thick With Smoke And Dust, Creating A Haze That Made The Factory Seem Even Larger Than It Already Was.
As The Moon Set Behind The Dark Factory Walls, Its Silhouette Stood Out Against The Vivid Purple Sky. "Well We Made It I Guess" He Stated With Somewhat Happiness As He Slid His Identification Card Through The Gate And Then Parking His Car Up Next To The Entrance.
As He Walked In, The Interior Of The Factory Was A Hive Of Activity. The Machines Were Humming And Buzzing, The Gears And Pulleys Creaking And Turning With Every Motion. The Workers Were Hard At Work, Their Faces Covered In Sweat And Grime.
The Air Was Clogged With Smoke And Mist, Making It Hard To Breathe. It Was Loud And Chaotic, But To Those Who Worked There, It Was Home. "Well Busy As Ever Haha" He Rolled His Eyes Moving To His Station But Then Was Approached Out Of Nowhere By Ryan.
"Oh Great The Fat CEO Who's Literal Job Is Sitting His Fat Ass And Getting Paid" He Thought To Himself Rolling His Eyes. "Oh Hey How's It Going Issac?" He Shook His Hand Issac Responded With A Somewhat Forced Smile.
"Let Me Guess Deer?" Ryan Joked With An Annoying Chuckle, "Oh Yeah Those Deer's Are A Thorn In My Ass Definitely" He Nodded With Agreement. "Well At Least You Made It Just Get To Work And Then You Go Home Simple Ain't It?" Ryan Patted His Back Before Going Upstairs To His Office Which Had Windows In The Front Of It Allowing Him To Have A Birds Eye View On The Workers.
Issac Got To Work Operating The Machines With A Slouched Posture, The Machines Were Designed To Build A Specialized Doug Model, These Models Were Far Advanced Than The Ones At The Restaurants. They Are Designed To Look After The Home While Homeowners Are Gone And Even Act As Babysitters. There Have Approximately 332 Models Sold So Far But That Was Probably Because Of The £18,000 Price Tag.
"I Still Don't Understand Why People Buy These Fat Robot Dogs, I'd Take A Human Babysitter Over This Fat Sack Of Shit Anyday" He Chuckled With Hysterical Laughter, As He Carried On Building More Models With The Help Of The Machine.
Ryan Kept Overseeing The Operation And Stood Up To Get A Coffee However His Door Was Suddenly Opened With A Bang. "Hmm What Is It?" He Spoke With A Low Voice Tinged With Anger, He Picked Up His Cup As He Slurped His Coffee. "Uh Sir... Well These Two Apparently Said They Imported A Chip Into A Doug Model From An Endo Which Was Found At A Grave" His Assistant.
"Well We Thought It Was Cheaper" Charles (One Of The Workers) Stated With A Matter Of Fact Tone. "Wait Did You Say Grave?" Ryan Spoke With A Stutter To Which Lewis (Another Worker) Nodded In Agreement. "Whose Grave Are We On About Here?" He Spoke With Concerned Tone.
"Oh Some Guy Called Zlatko" Charles Spoke With Chuckle, "Seriously Who Calls There Child Zlatko" Lewis Added With A Tinge Of Laughter. "ZLATKO!?" Ryan Spat His Drink Out On Lewis's Face, Ryan's Face Was Now Painted With A Shocked Expression. "No No No!" Ryan Repeated With Worry As He Ran Up To The Window.
"Which Model Has The Chip?" Zlatko Spoke With Haste, "Model 345" His Assistant Announced With A Deadpan Expression. "Dammit Don't Let That Model Off The Railings!" Ryan Rushed Down His Office And Into The Main Factory He Then Noticed The Model Hanged Up With The Others On Railings.
"Get It Down! Now!" Ryan Yelled To Which Other Workers Looked On With Confusion One Worker Pressed The Button Activating The Railing System As The Models Moved Like They Were On A Conveyor Belt. However The Model Started Shaking And Vibrating Violently It's Eyes Flashing Green.
"Oh Fuck..." Ryan Spoke In A Slow Tone As The Endo Dropped Down Onto The Ground Onto It's Feet. It Was An Old Decayed Endo With A Hook On Its Right Hand And It Was Missing A Right Ear Too. Its Eyes Are Pure Green With Yellow Eyelids.
However It Then Began Changing Into A Different Look With The Help From The Holographic Addition Added To Doug Model.
It Transformed Its Look Into An Adult Man With Short Brown Hair And Blue Eyes. Along With A Trimmed Beard With A White White Collared Shirt And Red Tie.
As The Dust Settled, The Man Started Laughing Maniacally With His Hand On His Head Like A Crazed Lunatic. The One Who Everyone Feared, Serial Killers Revere, The One Who Won't Die, He Will Always Find A Way Out, The Monster Returns Yet Again...
"ZLATKO".
"Ahahhahahaha... I'm Back... In The Flesh" He Smirked With A Maniacal Smile As His Eyes Darted To All The People Around Him. "This Form Is Much Stronger Than My Past Human Body... Savory" He Licked His Lips.
Ryan Pointed At Him As Security Guards Started Surrounding Him "This Time Old Friend You Ain't Going Anywhere" Ryan Smiled With Arrogance. The Workers Looking In Confusion At The Odd Situation Stirring As Some Even Ran Off Outside.
"Sir Get On The Ground With You're Hands Up" One Security Guard Spoke With A Tinge Of Anger To Which Zlatko Responded With An Unimpressed Frown. "Stupid Mutts" He Rolled His Eyes.
Then He Suddenly Charged At The Security Guard And Ploughing His Fist Through His Chest With Ease Blood Staining Zlatkos Arm. "Argh! Fuck!" He Coughed Up Blood Before Zlatko Removed His Arm Dropping Him To The Ground As A Loud Thud Was Heard. The Other Two Started Firing Barrages Of Ammunition At Zlatko But He Merely Smirked.
He Then Turned Around And Grabbed The Other Security Guards Gun, Then He Threw It Away. Before Grabbing The Security Guards Arm And Ripping It Off With Ease As The Guard Winced In Pain. "A Shame That Humans Are So Fragile" He Chuckled Standing Over The Corpse Which Dripped With Blood.
Another Decided To Run At Him With A Baton But Zlatko Reacted With Quick Pace As He Punched His Jaw, So Hard That He Sent The Man Flying Into The Wall Killing Him Instantly As Blood Splattered Along The Wall. "That Was Easy But That's What I Expect From Stupid Mutts Like You" Zlatko Turned To Ryan Who Stumbled Onto The Ground Shuffling Backwards With Fear.
Ryan's Assistant Ran In Front Of Him, "Stay Back Or I Will Shoot!" He Clutched The Revolver Tightly. "Never Knew You Were A Fan Of Lapdogs Ryan" He Spoke With Sarcasm. "Shut Up!" Ryan's Assistant Yelled With Annoyance Before Firing Three Shots Into Zlatkos Head With Loud Bangs Echoing Throughout The Factory.
"How Rude" Zlatko Then Grabbed The Assistant By The Neck Picking Him Up With Ease His Grip Tightening Crushing His Windpipe, Only Grunts Could Be Heard From The Assistant Now As He Struggled To Breath Ryan Watching In Horror.
Zlatko Then Tightened His Grip Even More Before Snapping His Neck And Dropping Him With A Loud Thud. "Looks Like I Killed You're Lapdog" He Paused With A Sigh, "Unfortunate" He Rolled His Eyes. Zlatko Now Stood Before Ryan Causing Ryan's Spine To Crawl With Fear.
"But I'll Spare You For Now Since You Awakened Me Again" He Smirked Before Walking Towards Shutters, He Then Turned To Issac Who Was Hid Behind A Box "Hey Pipsqueak Open These Shutters For Me" Zlatko Asked With Sighed Before Issac Rushed To The Switch Opening Up The Shutters Letting Zlatko Escape. As He Knew If He Disobeyed He'd Be Murdered.
As Zlatko Walked Into The Outdoors Yet Again A Sense Of Nostalgia Clouded His Mind As Rain Droplets Poured Down His Face As He Smiled Gracefully. "Mmm It's Good To Be Finally Out In The World Again" He Sighed Straightening Up His Hair Before Begining To Carry On His Journey Again.
As He Carried On His Walk Through The Forest He Reached A Town However It Seemed Awfully Quite The Only Sound Heard Was The Rain Falling Onto The Ground As He Looked To His Left He Saw People Give Him Terrified Looks As They Shut There Doors. It Seemed He Wasn't Invited Here As Everyone Shut There Doors,
It Seemed He Wasn't Invited Here As Everyone Shut There Doors Instantly. It Was Only Him Left Outside It Seemed. "I Guess I Wasn't Welcome Haha" He Chuckled With A Slight Tinge Of Annoyance Wondering Who Alerted The Citizens Of This Town So Quickly.
But As The Rain Settled, In Front Of Him A Row Of Cops And SWAT Officers Aiming There Guns At Him Stood There, There Fingers Firm On The Triggers. Zlatko Merely Smirked, He Then Noticed A Familiar Face In Front Of The Wall Of Officers...
A Woman With A Blue Uniform Along With A White Collared Shirt Complete With A Blue Tie And Black Stockings, Lastly Black Footwear Too. It Was June.
"Long Time No See, I Didn't Know I'd See An Old Friend... I Wonder Where Andrew Is Maybe We Can Have A Big Happy Reunion" He Spoke With A Tinge Of Sarcasm. June Brows Furrowed "I'm Not You're Friend, Neither Is Andrew And Besides He's Done With You Now You're Not On His Mind Anymore... You're A Mere Relic Of The Past" June Explained With A Scowl.
"Me And Andrew Are Inseparable... Unfortunate That I'm Not His Priority Anymore.. But I'll Find Him Again And Finish The Job" Zlatko Proclaimed With Aggression As He Pointed At June. "You Won't Be Going Anywhere This Time We'll Chain You Up And Freeze You For Eternity, An Icy Hell Which You Won't Escape" June Explained In A Stern Expression.
"Really? Oh What You're Gonna Shoot Me? Hahahaha You're Really Stupid Aren't You... I'm A God Compared To You Vile Mutts" He Smirked June Shook Her Head Dismissing His Statement As He Unveiled A Cylinder Like Object In Front Of Her.
"Huh... The Fuck Is That?" He Looked On In Intriguing At The Weird Object In Front Of Him, As June Merely Smiled "It's You're Grave Zlatko... This Time You Won't Escape And You'll Rot In An Icy Prison" She Proclaimed As She Pressed A Red Button Firmly, (Which Was On Top Of The Cylinder).
As Suddenly A Wave Of Electricity Blew Into Zlatko Throwing Him Back Onto His Shoulders. As Electricity Surged Through Him He Couldn't Move He Was In Quite Literally A State Of Shock, It Appeared That June Got Her Hands On A Military Grade EMP, Now That He Was Immobile He Knew June Had A Perfect Opportunity To Strike.
"Ack! You Whore!" He Yelled As He Tried To Move June Merely Smiled As She Looked On This Is What He Deserves Especially For What He Did To His Past Victims. But She Then Noticed More Movement From Him Like Be Was Getting Up "No Way... " She Gulped Moving Backwards A Bit In A Worried Expression.
Zlatko Stood Up Again With A Little Bit Of A Struggle As He Lifted Up His Hand Pointing The Finger At June, "Kehehehehe.... You're A Fool!" He Yelled With Laughter And The He Dispelled A Wave Of Electricity As It Instantly Turned Off All The Lights Nearby.
The Lights Were Completely Out, And The Country Was In A Indefinite Blackout. The Streets Were Dark And Empty, With Only The Sound Of The Wind To Keep Anyone Company. It Was A Surreal Experience, With The Stars Shining Brighter Than Ever In The Absence Of Artificial Light. The Air Was Still, And There Was An Eerie Silence That Was Both Calming And Unsettling, Like All The World Was Holding Its Breath.
For A Moment, It Seemed Like Time Had Stood Still, As If The Blackout Had Stolen Away The Minutes And Hours That Make Up There Daily Lives. June Looked On As Everything Was Covered In A Darkness As She Got Up She Suddenly Saw Out Of Nowhere A Police Helicopter Plummet Down Into She Jumped Effortlessly In The Nick Of Time.
As The Helicopter Slammed Into The Ground, Glass Shattering As It's Rotor Blade Flew Off And Sliced Apart Another Officer Nearby Who Wasn't So Lucky As Blood Splattered On The Ground June Looking On In Horror. "Zlatko Dammit... I Should've Known That He Had A Backup Plan!" She Yelled Punching The Ground In Defeat.
Meanwhile Zlatko Was Far Away From All The Panic And Carnage As He Wandered Through The Streets As He Then Came Upon A Graveyard. His Eyes Darted Around Looking If There Was Anyone Nearby And Broke Inside. He Then Breathed In The Air This Scent Seemed Familiar To Him Like He Was Here Before.
As He Walked Past The Countless Lost Lives And The Deceased. He Then Stopped In His Tracks As He Looked At The Gravestone Titled "Zlatko", " Huh So This Were My Mere Mortal Self Died... Brings Back So Many Memories" He Chuckled Before Sitting Against His Gravestone.
As He Looked At The Rising Sun, He Contemplated The Point Of Pushing On "What's The Point... God Won't Spare Me Anymore Ever Since Birth I've Been Cursed But I Think The Right Thing To Do Is To Finally Put The Nail In My Coffin... It's Been An Interesting Journey Hehe... Maybe In Another Universe I'd Be With Masaken And Live Happily But For Now" He Paused Before Grabbed His Chip And Ripped It Out. "I'll End This Story" He Smirked Before His Holographic Switched Off Returning To His Endoskeleton Look And His Body Started Stopping Going Into A Permanent Sleep Mode.
After The Major Blackout June Put Police Tape Around The Gravesite Of Zlatko And Kept Security Tight Keeping Eyes On Zlatko At All Costs Not Letting Anyone Through Either. Ryan The CEO Was Sentenced To Life On Counts Of Tampering With A Corpse And Activating A Dangerous Weapon, He Is Currently Serving Time In The Tokyo Detention House...
