o7: Another Mark for My Collection
This time Gurimo made absolutely, positively sure that he was prepared for his target.
He made sure to do all necessary background check on the subject and… the discoveries he made about the target made his blood run cold and the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end. Just for extra knowledge, he read any and all newspaper clippings involving the man and everything – absolutely everything – made his gut twist painfully.
Did… no.
Master Dartz couldn't possibly want to add this man's soul added to the collection.
It was just plain absurd.
Gurimo wasn't even sure if he even wanted to try and capture this man's soul.
(After all, he's failed six times in a row now and the chance of getting out of this one unscathed was… unlikely.)
But… that's exactly the reason why he had to go and try because he simply couldn't fail his Master again. They needed souls to unlock the great beast and…
Gurimo pinched the bridge of his nose.
Victor Zsasz, based on the information he read, went after any one. It didn't matter who it was so long as it would gain him a mark.
Ugh.
"No. I cannot not do this task; Master Dartz gave it to me and I must see it through." Gurimo stood and started towards the door of his room. He would accomplish this task and, with any luck, be allowed to return. His fingers curled around the cold metal doorknob and he glared purposefully at it. "I will accomplish this task. I will."
…
Gurimo continued to stand there, glaring hatefully at the object within his fingers, as he tried to muster up the will to continue on.
…
"… On second thought," He pulled back his hand and glanced over at the phone on the bedside table and then to the folder containing the names of his targets. "Perhaps I shall skip this one for now. … Yes, I think I will. There's no harm done in doing so."
And so, Gurimo returned to the small table and began to look through the rest of the names and deciding on who would be his next target.
Therefore, Victor Zsasz was never even offered the chance of becoming an offering to the great Leviathan.
