As I walked into the Hyperion office, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. This was the company responsible for the game that ruined my life, and now I was here to infiltrate it. But I had to put on a façade, I had to make them believe I was just another client looking for a new game.
As I sat in the meeting room of Hyperion, the renowned gaming company, my heart was pounding with a mix of nerves and determination. I had come here under the guise of wanting to hire them to create a new game for my own company, but my true motive was to get close to Alexander Krieg, the CEO of Hyperion and one of the men responsible for Emma's death.
As I was introduced to the team, Alexander stepped forward, a charismatic smile on his face as he shook my hand. "I'm Alexander Krieg, CEO of Hyperion," he said. "We're the best in creating first-person shooter games, but I'm always looking for something different, something that sets our games apart from the rest."
I could feel my blood boiling as he spoke, but I kept my expression neutral, listening as he went on to talk about his desire for a more realistic story-driven game, something that was not just an online multiplayer experience. I found myself nodding along, pretending to be genuinely interested in his ideas.
As the meeting went on, Alexander and I started to hit it off, finding common ground in our passion for gaming. He even began to invite me to his luxurious parties, introducing me to other big names in the industry. I played my part well, acting like a successful businessman interested in collaborating with Hyperion.
But all the while, I was gathering information, studying the inner workings of the company and the people who ran it. I knew that it would take time, but I was determined to make them pay for what they did to Emma. And I would stop at nothing to see them suffer as their entire world crumbled around them.
As Alex took me on a tour of the Hyperion office, he excitedly showed me the progress on their project. He told me that the main character of the game has to be a beautiful female and my heart skipped a beat as he revealed that the character was modeled after Yuna. I couldn't believe my eyes as I stared at the computer screen, seeing her familiar face staring back at me. I was in shock, my mind racing with confusion and anger. How could she be working with the very person who destroyed my life? I tried to compose myself and maintain a neutral expression, not wanting to tip off Alex to my true feelings.
I couldn't understand why she was here, was she trying to stop me or did she want to sabotage my plan? My mind raced with thoughts and questions, but I knew I needed to speak with her later to get some answers. I put on a brave face and continued with the meeting, but I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had taken hold of me. Was Yuna really on my side or was she working against me? I knew I needed to find out soon, before it was too late.
