I was brought into the prison. A place where the worst of the worst go. My bounty was finally taken down because I'd been eliminated and captured in this game. The OASIS had a rule where you weren't allowed to kill people unless you were fighting in a raid.

Even then, they wouldn't die and lose their items and experience, they'd just have to watch the entire raid finish before respawning. However, some chose to go down the Infamy path, a side that was harder to play due to people trying to arrest you but you got greater weapons and rewards and I was one to take risks.

Choosing the Infamous path would allow you to kill people wherever, whenever. Just don't get caught for those who chose the Justice Path. Prestige is your regular average player. Infamy is your evil side. Justice is the hero side and they basically play normally except they capture Infamy players, take away their items and xp and put them on a ban which basically was a lock up for a certain amount of days, It was all fun and stuff but this time one of the Justice players were corrupted.

I was now serving a 1-year ban, I would've made a new account but unless you had an account previously, you can't make new accounts under ban and unlike most people I only had one. In real life, I had 2 personalities. A calm personality and my more dominant personality. A crazy one. I am Marvin. An Assassin who was betrayed.

I sat in the small box with confined walls which was now my home. All I was given was a bed and a table. My cellmate was weird. He was completely silent and probably one of those small assassins who thought that getting banned for a few days was too much and they were probably crying in real life. I did my usual routine and decided to return to my cell. Inside, my cellmate finally spoke.
"You know who I am?" He said.

"Should I?"

He pulled up a sleeve which revealed a death mark which only one player could have. The Priest of Death. He was also known as "The Reaper" "Angel Of Death" "Death" and many more.

"What are you doing here?" I asked slightly scared.

"I want to break you out. I would like you to join my guild of assassins. I've noticed your fighting ability and that you prefer explosives. We need someone who specializes in demolition. This is a once in a lifetime offer. Care to help?" he asked.

Of course I had to accept. Escape this unfair one year ban and make a name for myself on one of the biggest infamy guilds of all time. I nodded.

He smirked before indicating for me to follow. He suddenly opened a portal and we both stepped in and entered a rather luxurious place. It was still dark and gloomy and I assumed this was their base. He stepped forward and told me that he was going to put us through some tests.

The first few were easy, I completed the parkour and weapons test and still did decently on Magic and Hand to Hand combat. He then told me to stay here and an army of over 100 robots were charging at me. I realised I had no weapon and asked him for one and he simply left the room. My crazy side turned on as I started firing blasts and blasts of explosions somehow not damaging the room. This horde was soon to be wiped out. I left the room only to find several Elite Justice Players to be at the doorstep of our base.

*P.O.D View*

Heh. This was going to be fun. I barely got any fighting to do recently. Aldous just got his new sword which could fire lasers and our newest recruit probably decimated those robots with explosions. I wielded my iconic scythe before flashing dark magic in my hand.

I activated my Scythe stance and prepared for battle. It was a 5v1 and I was outnumbered, not outmatched however. 2 of them wielded swords, 2 others had ranged weapons being a rifle and bow and arrow and they also had a heavy brute who wielded an axe. The sword fighters rushed towards me as I gave two swift parries and used the end of my scythe to freely swing around and knock them back. I was hit straight in the shoulder by an arrow quickly followed by a bullet but stood my ground. The Brute was about to slam into the ground and I didn't want my precious base to be destroyed just yet so I teleported us to a different location.

Just in time, I went out of the way and dodged the axe slam that would have crushed me to bits. There was no time to catch my breath as one of the swordsman violently swung his sword recklessly as I struggled to block such heavy attacks. I randomly fired a blast of dark energy that sent everyone flying back that allowed me to gain space between me and my foes. I switched to my dual pistols and fired as they tried to attack me when I was still on the ground gaining my composure. I got back up and switched the pistol on my right hand into a dagger. Since Daggers weren't designed or used for parrying I had to solely rely on speed and staying on the offensive, having to stay defensive would not be ideal. I got a couple shots to the ranged attackers before swiftly using both daggers and aggressively attacking my enemies.

Their weapons were not the lightest so I was already at the advantage in terms of speed. I couldn't just recklessly swing, I needed to find some way to minimize his movements. My thoughts were interrupted as I was hit by a sword. Bad mistake: don't think when vulnerable. I decided that I would just have to resort to blade combat as I switched back to my Scythe and dashed forward dodging and turning before using dark magic to teleport in front of the rifleman.

"Dark Magic: Devil's Cross"

I used my Scythe to cut a black cross as it blasted the rifleman backwards killing him. I swung my scythe left and decapitated the unsuspecting bowsman before returning to the 3 main threats. Spinning the Scythe with ease I held my own against the three fighters. I finally got an opening as I used my Reaper Punch which sent his soul flying out of one of the swordsman and I chopped him to pieces.

I mocked them by spinning my scythe around and then teleporting behind the other swordsman and switching to my dagger to kill him. It was now just me and the Heavy Brute. He was slow and I knew he would be no be taken out effortlessly. I quickly dodged his sluggish attacks and landed a Scythe hit straight into his stomach.

"Sin Magic: Shadow Overload."

My Scythe started glowing and illuminating a purplish black light. The Brute fell to his knees screaming in agony as his eyes violently exploded. The sockets of his eyeballs were now flowing with black liquid and soon this liquid was coming out of his body from everywhere. Ears, Mouth, Arms, Chest, Legs and Feet.

The Toxic Black Substance soon devoured his body. I lightly chuckled to myself as I looked at the dead carcass scattered across the floor before teleporting myself back to the base. My two top tier assassins Marvin and Aldous greeted me as Aldous had his massive laser shooting sword on his back and Marvin had a Gundam like arsenal with two laser shooting rifles and laser swords.

I looked at them and said to them: "We're going to find the person who betrayed the two of you… Parzival."
