[Jester's Lab]

Inside the lab, a man was trapped inside a huge glass tank filled with purplish liquid. His hands were handcuffed and a certain metallic choker was wrapped around his neck with a gag tool around his mouth.

"You know? You are quite similar to a cockroach." The Jester sat in front of the glass tube. "Cockroaches stay hidden, you do too. They flee fast, you do that too… and they are hard to kill, you are too." 

The eyes of the man turned crimson but when Jester didn't make a single movement, his eyes widened and he started panicking. 

The Jester chuckled like a madman. "You see… This room is filled with things that prevent your powers from activating. No matter how hard you try, it's futile." 

The man mumbled but Jester was unable to understand him. "Ah, my bad." He pressed a button which made the gagging tool come off.

"You bastard!" 

Jester rolled his eyes. "That's the first thing you say? Bastard? Not the classic 'Who the hell are you!' or 'I will kill you once I am freed?" He shook his head in disappointment. "Man… you are boring."

"Why did you bring me here?!?" 

"Aha! Now you are on the right track!" He rubbed his chin through the mask. "I brought you here because, in the future, you will be a pain to deal with… Well, you have always been a pain but I don't want any trouble in the future."

"What do you mean?" The man had a frown on his face.

"Eh? Well, I don't want any parasites near me in the future." He clicked his tongue. "You have always been a pain to deal with. Weapon plus? That was your game plan?" 

The man's frown deepened… but that's all he could do. The choker had prevented him from using his powers and the liquid was preventing body hopping. 

"You are an idiot. Hoping to kill the mutants with what… A shitty serum that doesn't even give immortality?" He snickered. "Of course, you can defeat most of the Beta mutants or a few dozen Alphas with an army of super-soldiers… But do you really think that these are the only two mutant ranks?"

Jester burst out laughing. "Pathetic. There are mutants who can erase the existence of every super-soldier with a sneeze."

The man was silent.

"Well, at least you did one good thing. You gave powers to a person that I find extremely interesting… Actually? I might even recruit him!"

"Who…" The man was curious… despite his not so lucky situation.

"Hm-hm… what was his name again? Ah, yes! Wade Winston Wilson." 

The eyes of the man opened wide in realization. "What do you want with him?!?!" 

Jester tilted his head to the left. "Why does that even matter? You will die anyway." 

The man clenched his fists. 

"Well your Weapon X project was a massive failure other than him… but he butchered your entire crew and ran away… So even that was a failure?" 

Jester sighed. "You are pathetic. Anyways… Lemme ask the classic three words before killing you."

The man flinched. 

"Any last words?" The man was frozen in fear. He couldn't do anything. He couldn't jump bodies neither could he control this madman.

So if he died here… He will be dead forever.

"No last words? Heh… Too bad then."

"W-wai-" He couldn't say anything as the Jester pressed a button making the purple liquid turn red.

"Aaaaahhh!!!!" The man shouted in pain as the liquid started to melt his body, burning it down.

"What a fool… even if he did ask for something, why would I grant it? Kek!" 

He looked at the burning man inside the tube. "Well, goodbye then… John Sublime."

[Unknown Location]

Silver was pissed. She already had enough trouble with her enemies and now this 'Foreigner' guy was trying to woo her. She wasn't interested in a weirdo like him but if she wanted to eradicate this syndicate… She needed his help.

"If only he wasn't an asshat." *Sigh* "I need to kill those leftover villains." 

As she was walking towards her base… she saw a certain man dressed in entirely black clothing.

"Who are you?" She asked the man who was silently standing there. 

Her base was kept hidden so the fact that this man found it, concerned her.

"Who I am doesn't matter. But what I am here for does." He said before passing on a letter to her. "Our boss said to give this to you." He said and instantly vanished.

She wasn't even able to tell him to wait as the man vanished in a puff of smoke before she could say anything.

"Today is definitely a shitty and weird day." Silver opened the letter and found the face of a clown drawn at the top and bottom of it.

"This looks so creepy." Despite her saying this, the letter was quite beautiful other than two small clown faces at the top and bottom.

Opening the letter... she was quite shocked at its content.

'Howdy Sable! The name's Jester… Well, you might not know me but I do know a lot about you. Like a 'lot' lot.'

Is this a joke? Is this guy some sort of a stalker.

'Anyways, that doesn't matter. I can help you with your problems as long as you agree to meet me.'

That doesn't seem like a very good idea to me.

'If you do, you won't need to ask for Foreigner's help and instead of just removing one of their branches, I will help in exterminating them… completely.'

This person is dangerous, very dangerous. He not only knows my location but he also knows my motives and relation with Foreigner. If I make even a small mistake after climbing this high… I will die.

'And, oh yeah...It's not just me. One of the branches figured out your location.' What?!? 

'P.S. I added the location of one of their hideouts at the back.' That's good I guess?

'P.P.S. I eradicated two of the branches, so only three more are left.'

"..."

'P.P.P.S. I will see you soon, Sable~'

Okay I have had enough!
