AFTER SHOW

Prologue

You should've known your cheap taser won't do shit to an almost 7 feet tall advanced machinery with an equally advanced protective system.

You also should've known installing a self-conscious AI with the personality of a sadistic and violent serial killer into it wasn't the wisest idea.

You fucked up. Like they said you would.

But in a dangerous way.

They meant– you'll fail, and end up spoiling your reputation, or worse, losing your job. Pretty simple, right?

But now you might just end up losing your life.

Goddammit.

You have to fix this, before anyone finds out.

Even if it means ruining your career and stature, risking your life, and destroying your long-cherished dream.

That dream has become a nightmare now.

And it's going to come haunt you again tonight.

Tonight, only one of you will come out with their consciousness, alive.

Welcome to the after show.

Thunk.

Thunk.

Thunk.

It's coming closer.

Thunk.

It's rounding the corner.

... Thunk.

It's in front of you.

You brace yourself.
