I sat on my desk, looking over the canyon of Zaun. My Zaun. The chaotic city howled with the numerous gangs destroying it all. My property. My men were sent to deal with them. How long does it bloody take to kill reckless criminals? I turned away from my window and looked at a map of Zaun's sump. Across the map lay points of the appearances of this famed "Blob-man", mostly in the eastern parts of the city-state. I knew it was my weapon. Mine to control. It was somewhere in the sump, the green substance obtained from the crime scene of the "Imaginary Rat massacre" say "Sump". That's where they lived and hid, but where..
Suddenly the door opened loudly.
"Sir! I have came to report on the Zaunite Amorphous Combatant!" a thug shouted.
"Is that so? What information do you have? Did our spies obtained anything of use."
"Yes! They found them. The scientist that ran away. You were right on the location. The faces were proven recognizable. The fingerprints they left match the ones we have in our database."
I smiled. "Good.." I stood up. "Tell the thugs to invade the house immediately. I will have my combatant. Make darn sure of it! Grab the 2 criminals that took my property and make sure that they're alive! But do whatever you can to obtain them. They'll tell me everything. You're dismissed."
The thug's uneven footsteps echoed behind me, growing fainter every second. I smiled.
"No escape now..." I said looking over the city. "Zaun will be mine."
"There! That should do it!" ZAC said happily as the man lay unconscious on the floor. He was breathing slowly from the brutal blows. ZAC went over to collect his piles of goop from the battle. "The police should be on their way right now." He looked over his shoulder and picked up the bag of gold. "Now where does this go...?" ZAC asked. He looked around to spot a building with a broken window. He walked over and opened the door.
"Hey! Is this what you're looking for?" ZAC said to the shopkeeper shivering at the blob monster. He was probably hiding here the entire time. He looked so scared. "Hey.. I won't hurt. I just want to give this back." One step further. A rifle popped up, aimed at him. ZAC raised his hands, signaling that he meant no harm. "Um... Hey.. I'm not going to hurt you." The gun didn't falter. "Ok then.. I'll just leave this bag of money here, and you can stand up and grab it. Won' that be nice? I promise this isn't a trick."
As ZAC placed the money down, he noticed a newspaper among the shattered remains on the floor. "Unstable Monster Among Us?" the title blared. He looked back at the rifle pointed at his chest. He gently placed the newspaper in his chest. "Ok.. I'm going. I'll leave it down here and you'll get it okay?" ZAC said gently, as he walked back. He quickly went into the sewers after he was out of the shop. He took out the newspaper and quickly skimmed.
"After research from the remains of the Imaginary Rat Massacre, we have found real information. The substance found at the site have been discovered to have small neurons, proving a sentient force. While the police are investigating the sewers for the infamous Plague Rat as of now, they should also be locating this suspicious entity. There have been numerous citing of him by certain individuals that say he's responsible for damages and heroic feats. Knowing this instability and inconsistency, we should act as soon as possible. Should we let an unstable creature loose in the city?"
ZAC was shocked at every word. He muttered the last sentence constantly. "Should we let an unstable creature loose in the city..?" He should tell his parents about this hoped Twitch was doing fine with them for the time being. He didn't how to deal with this. Suddenly, voices began to be heard above him. Seems like the police are here. ZAC went into the pipes and made his way towards his house, scared of what will happen these coming weeks.
