Entity of Iris

Hello, Anti

There was blood all over the hall.

Dozens of dead guards all over the floors here and there, even on the ceiling.

The Entity glided down onto the cold tile floor, its feet sticky with blood.

He had finally become corporeal all thanks to the sad man cowering on the floor in front of him, trying pathetically to get away.

The alarms were already blaring.

The lights were red in warning that the Entity had gotten loose.

It was too late.

The Entity stood in front of the man on the floor. His eyes glowed green and he gave a sinister smile.

"Hello Chase"

Chase shuddered and stared at this thing.

It was so frightening.

But why did it feel so familiar?

"Wh.  . . . . what are you?"

The creature just tilted his head a little, curious.

Before anything more could be said or done, though, there were more footsteps sounding down the hall behind him.

The Entity turned and smiled, "Well hello again"

Marvin and Jackie stood together side by side.

The magician had his mask down and his seals up, ready to attack.

Jackie made a stance and was ready to fight this entity again if he had to. It wasn't much of a fight last time since the creature didn't really have a body but. . .  he'd try his best.

Jackie gaped at the creature, "This is messed up, man . . ..  why does he look like that one guy?"

Chase stood up by this time but he had nowhere to go since the Entity was blocking his path.

"Wh. . .what's happening?"

The Entity stood  still but smiled, his eyes going back to normal, "What do you plan on doing? You know it's approaching. It'll be here soon"

Marvin blinked behind his mask, "What do YOU plan on doing?"

The thing looked from the both of them, "Where's the other one? The doctor?" he looked up at one of the working cameras, "Is he watching from a safe space? Probably smart"

"YOU NEED TO ANSWER ME NOW! STOP PLAYING GAMES!"

The Entity just stared at Jackie and Marvin, hauntingly, ". . . . But I like games"

Jackie shuddered, 'Man, this thing is creepy'

"Creepy?" it asked, looking at Jackie.

The gaped at him, "I. . . wh-what? Did you just-"

The creature tapped his own forehead with a bloody finger, "I hear everything"

He looked back at the camera again, " . . . everything."

Marvin knew it was a stupid move but decided that perhaps showing trust might move things along. If the Entity could read their minds, perhaps that's why it was giving a threatening display.

Marvin relaxed and put down his seals.

The Entity blinked, watching him.

Jackie breathed out a tiny whimper, "The hell are you doing, man?!"

"Relax. . . . I think it's only reacting negatively because WE are, too."

"And they were?" Jackie pointed at all the bodies on the floor, "What about them?"
