An Incognito Halloween!
It was Halloween at Cognito Inc as Reagan Ridley, the company local scientist and antisocial manager of one it's office, was currently in the breakroom at the coffee dispenser.
"Ugh! Another day, another mystery about the world that we have to keep from the general public so that the company doesn't get shut down." Reagan thought to herself as she poured another cup of coffee into her cup. She was in her office working on her newest invention that needed the kinks worked out: The Productivitron, four bio-cranial robotic arms that increases one's productivity by 600%.
It was only her in the building as she did not want to go home to her alcoholic father, Rand, who was fired from the company, Cognito Inc and was trying to get revenge on the boss J.R, ever since.
"Man, I really need to stop pulling this all-nighter bullshit." The genius said to herself as she sipped some of her coffee. "Hopefully one day I'll do that."
Unknown to Reagan, she wasn't truly alone as she thought she was as someone lurking in the shadows, watching her every move in order to wait for the right moment to strike.
As Reagan washed her face in the employee bathroom and exited through the the door, she suddenly felt like she wasn't alone as walked down the dimly lit hallways. "Strange, why do I get this weird feeling that someone else is in the building with me?" she asked herself before shrugging it off. "Must be the stress getting to me. That's it as soon I work out the last of these kinks, I'm going home, Daddy dearest be damned!"
Walking back into her room, she looked into a mirror to look over herself before she let out a yawn of tiredness. Squinting her eyes, she noticed something vague was up from behind her.
"What in the..." the genius began before turning around.
What she saw was a figure in the shadows bringing down a weapon on her. Reacting quickly, she rolled out of the way and clapped the lights on in quick succession. Once the lights were on, she got a good look at her attacker.
It was a guy wearing a gray colored mask with black holes so that she couldn't see the eyes and brown hair while wearing black clothing and wielding a kitchen knife.
"Whoa, Stabby, office hours have been over a long time ago." Reagan quipped before having to duck a knife swing from the man. "Whoa! Hey! Stop!"
Backflipping over the table and grabbing her invention, the genius quickly strapped it on her back as she then thought to herself. "Okay, I see this guy is serious about killing me. Looks like I have no choice but to put him down!"
The man attempted to bring his knife to slice the adult woman's head off, only for one the Productivitron's arms to grab a hold of the arm holding the weapon as another arm then grabbed the knife and with minimal effort, shattered the knife into pieces which consequently fell to the ground. But this masked individual wasn't through as he quickly reached out and grabbed a hold of Reagan's throat with one of his hands, causing her to gasp as she was being held up into the air before she felt the second hand close around her throat and began to slowly apply the pressure on it.
"Holy fuck! His grip is so strong! It's almost inhuman! I have to break free quick or I'm dead!" Reagan thought as she commanded all four of the robotic arms to to this psycho in the faces and stomach as she tried to get his hands away from her throat.
The masked figure was punched in the face before he was then double punched in the stomach and was sent flying into the wall, allowing Reagan to get a chance to breathe. Pulling out a laser from her pocket, she pointed it at her attacker's head.
"See you in hell, Myers!" The genius said as she pulled the trigger of her weapon.
A red colored laser blast struck the killer head on, completely disintegrating his head, his arms and basically the upper have of his body. Once it was over, his legs fell to the floor.
Breathing heavily, she then said triumphantly. "Try and come back... from that... you fucking... sociopath!"
The End!
