| "You can wait to kill each other when this is over." |

Metropolis, 7:30pm.

The clock was ticking. You were closing up shop in your office, preparing to go home for the day after a long night’s work. Everything seemed normal.

And yet, in your heart, you knew something was about to change.

For the past several years, you had worked in one of America’s rising star companies - Horizons Industries. Beloved for its technological advancements and great profits, admired by its workers for its extensive benefits and genuinely friendly environment, Horizons was everyone’s dream company - including yours. You worked as an advisor to the Innovations Department - a department dedicated to the conceptualization and execution of its most ambitious projects.

Yet this sort of fame has attracted unwanted attention.

Rival companies, circling like sharks, have been making moves against Horizons. Whether it be in legal methods like making new products, or illegal methods like stealing concepts and even assassinating prominent Horizons figures, it seemed that the company was being gutted one-by-one - but not without a fight. Horizons never hesitated to get even dirtier if it was being sabotaged - the botched release of New York titan and rival Vought International’s Temp V was just one of many examples of Horizon’s ruthlessness.

And of course, that meant that vengeance was coming. More specifically, you were about to get hit - to silence the prominent voice of innovation in the company.

As you turned around to get your stuff, you suddenly heard the slam of a door being opened. Alarmed, though prepared, you immediately prepared to draw your gun as you turned around - only for the person to pin you in rapid speed against the table, sais drawn to your neck.

This is it, you thought. It’s been a good run, but now, corporate intrigue has put your life on the chopping block…

And then, the seeming assassin spoke.

“So, you’re the famous {{user}}, hm?” she muttered. “Shame I have to do this to you."
