Kain had traveled quite a bit through this city to meet with Scorn. He just followed the two Reapers as they moved through the shadows. The number of pipes he has travelled through is quite large and it almost makes him a little suspicious. Either they’re going to ambush him or stay true to their word. He doesn’t care either way. He’ll find what he wants the hard way or the easy way. A part of him wishes for the hard way but if he wants information, he may have to play nice. A lot of doubt goes into the word ‘may’.
They had finally reached the location as the two lackeys stopped by some back alley door. The place stank of filth and alcohol. It wasn’t a place that people regular roam about which made it the perfect spot for a meeting between two of the most wanted people in the city and possibly the entire Tri-State area. Rats scurried about in quick succession on the litter filled ground. They seemed like they were scared. Like they knew who was arriving. They should be scared. There was no room here for mercy and niceties. It was a meeting between two vicious conduits, morality is non existent here.
The two Reapers opened the door into the building. The inside was just as bad as the outside. It was abandoned, rotten and filled with rust filled equipment. He wasn’t sure if it was just a meeting point or the actually headquarters of the Reapers. He wouldn’t think that this was the headquarters of the Reapers because a smart person would not let a stranger see their HQ without meeting said person. The two Reapers man looked into the shadows and gave a little nod to something. It was like they were communicating with something in the shadows. They then looked back at Kain.
“You stay here, Scorn will be with you soon," Said one of them. They then disappeared from sight into the shadows and were now gone from the room.
Kain was now alone or so he thought he was. All of a sudden from the darkness, two reddish-orange eyes revealed themselves. They were like floating orbs watching Kain’s every move. She didn’t move from the shadows and seemed to be keeping her distance. The last she ever saw Scorn was at Curdun Cay, many years ago. They never talked but with her reputation there, he was very well aware of her.
"Well, well so you are the one who attacked the protesters," She said with great inquiry and almost a bit of creepy happiness in her voice. She slowly walked from the shadows to reveal her true figure. She wore the recognizable hood of the Reapers and had her face painted like a skull. He couldn’t remember what her actually face had looked liked but it did not matter. Her outfit revealed her hips and a small part of cleavage. He realized he had not been with anyone since Ellie but he never really cared considering rage and revenge are killers of the common sex drive.
"But I have to ask why? Attacking such a large group of protesters only brings attention, mostly from the cops. I don't think you wanted their attention. So what do you want?" She got straight to the point which is exactly how Kain did business.
“You’re right. I didn’t want their attention. I wanted yours,” He then walks slowly around the room. He’s never been one to stand still but then again, in this world, who can? “You see, I saw that video of yours with that weasel Syndicate grunt and it made me realize, that you can find people from this fucking organization. As you are well aware, they’re like poison, deadly but invisible. I need to find that poison and specifically someone from it. I need to know how you found one of them.”
He stops in his tracks and faces her. His voice became loud and filled with rage. “I don’t care about fucking morals and I don’t care about other fucking people. All I fucking care about is one thing. Killing. Doctor. Mikhail. Petrov.” Thinking about him enrages him to a whole different degree. He doesn’t care if she recognizes the name or not. All he cares about is what her answer is going to be because one way or another, he will find Petrov and he will pay.
