Revenge

The scientist crept up to Prometheus, this time he was equipped with a flashlight and gun. He shined it at Prometheus, who sat up on the bush, drained of tears. From any outside perspective, he appeared dead. He then shined the light lower, he saw Clementine, dead indefinitely, but she seemed at piece. He then inspected the area, he noticed a bloody stick next to Prometheus' hand. He then inspected their body to check for any bullet wounds. After confirming that there were bullet wounds, he concluded that the couple had performed a double suicide.

'First', he thought, 'The boy dragged her and himself to the bush. She must have been affected by the poison first. Since the bullet didn't go through her, but instead stayed in her body. She must have saw what happened to that other teen, and decided that she didn't want to suffer the same fate. So the boy killed her off, then finished himself off. But something is off.'

The scientist moved closer to Prometheus' leg, it clearly had a bullet go through it, he was clearly bleeding from it. 'He couldn't have bled out from that small of a bullet hole.' He moved on to the rest of Prometheus' body, 'He couldn't have finished himself off, there is no indication that he did. So my real conclusion is.'

Prometheus' eyes quickly ignited, fueled by revenge, flames in his eyes peaked. He lunged forward to grab the scientist's gun. He regretted it immediately, he was forced to push Clementine off of him which gave the scientist enough time to prepare himself a bit. They struggled, Prometheus attempted to rip the gun out of his hands, but the scientist resisted. The factors of Prometheus' injury and the scientist's clearly being older and a higher level. He easily manhandles Prometheus, kicking him in the stomach, causing him to go flying onto Clementine's body.

Prometheus groaned as the scientist took aim, he felt pity as he looked at Prometheus' eyes. They had a desperate flame, to survive no matter what, but the effects of Clementine's death was clearly shown. He was dried out of tears, only having a depressed darkness to his eyes.

'I can't kill him, maybe I should just let him escape,' the scientist thought lowering his gun.

'I need to kill him. I'll look for an opening, and utterly destroy him,' Prometheus thought as he noticed the gun being lowered.

For a split second they both did nothing, like a deranged wild animal Prometheus stared down his foe, allowing for his blood-lust to take over. It was only for a moment, the scientist lost his will to kill he wanted to spare Prometheus. In the same moment, Prometheus' desire to kill reached its apex.

[Skill Activated. Blood-lust.]

The next moment changed the scientist's demeanor toward Prometheus. The once pitiful scientist now saw Prometheus as a starving rabid animal before prancing on his pray. Now the scientist became more scared than pitiful, so scared for his life that he wanted to raise his gun and shoot at Prometheus until he dropped dead.

So he attempted to raise his gun, it was for naught. He was frozen in place, in fact instead of raising his gun, he had dropped it. Prometheus watched the gun slowly fall to the ground as he leaped for it, he grabs it off the ground, simultaneously shooting him in the leg. The scientist fell to his knee, covering the wound that Prometheus gave him. Prometheus barely got up, his own wound still bleeding.

He limped over to the fallen scientist, who grimaced at the pain. He took off the protective gear on his head. Prometheus had unmasked him, Prometheus aimed the gun to his head. With the same twisted smile as Moroccos when he hit the security guard with his laptop. Prometheus felt powerful.

"Please, spare me," the scientist says with urgency in his voice.

Prometheus said nothing as the scientist began showing the symptoms of the poison. "Please, kill me now!"

Prometheus lowered the gun, "Why would I? With no hesitation you were going to kill me. Let me suffer by the poison. You let Moroccos suffer, you were going to let Clementine suffer. So I'm going to let you suffer." His face became as twisted as his smile, as he heard the scientist cry for help. He watched the scientist's face turn red, his eyes turn bloodshot, him coughing up blood, and eventually his heart stopping.

"That's what you get, you piece of shit," Prometheus limped himself over to the ladder for the hatch. 'I have to leave her,' he gripped onto his new gun and opened his menu.

Prometheus slowly climbed up the ladder. He called upon the system's help. "What is 'The Collector' title."

[The Collector is a title that is fitted to your personality. You enjoy analyzing and collection information about the past. To accompany your personality and interests we have given you the ability to gain the information of other's titles. You can then study the information via leveling up the skill. Then use the information for your own needs.]

"That's an interesting ability. So his title must have been scientist than. How do I get other's titles though?" Prometheus struggled to get to the top of the ladder and close the hatch. He sucked up his incoming tears and moved forward, limping through the corridors to the stairs that led to the museum. Proceeding to limp down the stairs and into the museum.

'Huh, that's strange. The guard's body is gone,' Prometheus thought as he continued limping through, leaving a trail of blood behind him. He crossed the museum, then continued walking into the hallway. There were no guards or any kind of security out. 'This is so strange, but I'm too tired to even think straight, I just want to get back to the hotel, and pass out.'

Prometheus finally made it to the front entrance of the building. 'Finally,' he thought, 'I want this all to be over.' He opens the front door, walking out to the entrance, relief he felt, it quickly went away however after hearing the words...

"FREEZE!"
