Chapter 1: the "dangerous vigilante" has to escape his hospital room
Estoc pressed his finger to the word activate and the screen got all fuzzy before a smaller screen popped back up with something like a radar and their was actually a red dot nearby not two rooms over. He got up and peeked through the window on his door looking past the cops he sees a young female doctor come out of the room walking down the hallway before one of the cops moved into his line of sight the red dot moving further away
as a team of doctors rush into the room.
A couple of minutes later they wheel out a patient on a gurney taking him to the morgue.
Estoc slides down the door sweating and a bit panicked am I supposed to kill her? he thought
but instead he decided to tell one of the cops that were guarding him that she was in the room before that patient died.
so the cop a young bearded man named waluga if his badge was anything to go by went down the hall to talk to her and as she turned her head to look at my room a new window popped up
.....
Warning extreme bloodlust
directed towards the holder
please eliminate her before
she kills you I dont wanna die
....
Oh shit estoc says out loud
one of the cops an older woman with dyed blond hair her badge reads westerly tells him to watch his mouth sorry he mumbles as the other cop comes back and says their is nothing to worry about she was his doctor he says with a big oblivious smile on his face now go back to your room before I handcuff you to the bed again I know you can get out but I bet its annoying with one arm he said laughing.
Estoc couldn't figure out what was funny is he laughing cause my arms broken?
....
I think he was laughing cause hes nervous around you I mean you did single handedly take out 8 cop killing bank robbers
...
You can carry a conversation now? estoc says out loud
the cop looks at him a bit confused that's a bit mean he says before shuting the door in my face
...
Whoops sorry about
that =(
...
I think I hurt his feelings estoc said feeling bad about it he looks through the window and sees westerly patting his back .
Oof is he cryin bit fragile isn't he ? he says a bit too loudly cause officer waluga tears off down the hallway like a distraught teenage girl .
Officer westerly stares at me through the door a pissed off look on her face
are you proud of yourself he just divorced his husband dude basically said he was too fragile exact words gawd now I'm gonna haveta console him for days go lay down I don't wanna look at you she says before turning away.
...
Looks like you got the most dramatic cops in the city congrats
.....
Now the system is teasing me great.
estoc suddenly decides laying down was good advice when it pops back into existence
....
You can earn various stats from how you respond to the evil you fight
+ 1 to persuasion stat for convincing the most fragile and cowardly cop in the city to go after a potential murderer
....
...
+2 to malice stat for brutality shattering that same mans newfound courage with nothing but a few mean words
.....
....
Recognizing that you are now in danger as well as stupidly reluctant to kill the evil bitch I've decided to give a preemptive reward to increase your chances of survival
cause she definitely coming to kill you
....
....
A dark black scalpel engraved with designs of sheep upon its blade appears floating in the air with a description floating above it
....
Black sheeps nightmare blade
a blade that can hide you in plain sight as long as you aren't moving anyone cut by this blade falls into a day long slumber filled with horrible nightmares .
...
....
After the description ended the scalpel dropped down instantly almost stabbing him in the foot if not for his quick response.
estoc pulled up the scalpel up
not wanting the cops to find it he wrapped it up in a dirty sock to disguise it if anybody asks why hes carrying a sock its for a makeshift stress ball since hes not touching it hes still visible.
Estoc slips the sock covered blade into one of the huge pockets on his hospital gown then climbs into bed to try and sleep.
as soon as his head hits the pillow a shrill beeping noise assaults his ears he opens his eyes to see the map system with a glaring red dot moving toward his room.
Shiitake mushrooms! he lamely curses whilst scrambling out of bed he just barley slips behind the door as it opens and,body rigid he palms the scalpel in his pocket trying to stay as still as possible hoping against hope that the flimsy blade does what its description says it does.
Estoc grips the scalpel tightly as he does
everything goes quiet and the color goes out of the room like an old timey TV.
He can't hear what nurse rachet(still dosen't know her name) is saying to the police officer as she enters his room in fact he can't hear anything.
She looks over the room before informing the cop that he's gone following after her they walk down the hallway presumably to to find estoc.
When the door to the room closes behind her he breathes a sigh of relief the movement causing the color to rush back to the world as well as the instant cacophony of noise from machines and hospital staff that assaults his ears.
....
+1 to stealth
+1 to hearing
I probably shouldn't say this but that was an excellent chance to kill her are you sure your cut out for this?
...
...
Estoc groans loudly clearly dissatisfied with the fact that his system is so
opinionated
...
.....
This system dosen't have the capacity for laughter or a physical form or it would be rolling around on the floor right now this host is very amusing
.....
...
Just then the door swings open and officer waluga walks in apparently having been able to gather himself only to come back and find everyone missing he starts complaining his voice still kinda emotional.
Where is everyone? He yells out in that annoying tone that make him give off that teenage girl vibe again.
He turns around suddenly and feels a sharp pain in his arm sees estoc standing there as surprised as he is he looks at his arm and the blade in it.
His voice deepened a bit as the words you..little..shit slowly come out as he slumped down into the ground unconscious before suddenly jerking around in fitful slumber.
...
Sorry dude heck wasn't expecting you to suddenly swing around like that's kinda your fault really he said as he striped the guys uniform off.
Pulling his arm out of the sling was painful but necessary after putting it on(painfully)he slips his hospital gown onto the cop before awkwardly shoving him into his hospital bed and pulling the covers over him.
Estoc goes to leave the room when the now all too familiar radar pops up a glaring red dot appearing at the end of the hallway and moving fast.
estoc slips behind the door again pulling the cops gun out of its holster and aiming it before gripping the blade with his bad arm the color and sound leaving the room almost instantly. The door swings open the woman looking around before pulling out a syringe and moving towards officer waluga .
Not willing to let the poor guy get killed in his sleep whilst being plagued by horrible nightmares cause of him estoc pulled the trigger the bullet twisting through the back of her neck and into the wall as she Crumpled into a pathetic pile on the floor.

estoc walked through the hospital calmly in officer walugas uniform as people rushed by towards his room he also saw officer westerly being taken away in a body bag the evil doctors last victim .
or not wait he yelled out to the paramedics as they wheeled her away he runs up to the body bag and zips it open pulling out a vial he took off
the late doctor and getting a syringe from one of the nurses estoc injects the antidote hoping it's not too late.
after a minute that seems like an eternity she takes in a deep breath sputtering and coughing even spitting up a bit of blood before falling unconscious.
estoc tells the doctors where the body of the one responsible is leaving out the part about officer waluga being the one in his bed estoc walks out of the hospital the beginning of his new life hunting evil not even close to being over.
walking down the street his hud pops up 4 little pink dots showing up in an alleyway nearby .
....
pink dots on the hud represent lesser criminals who haven't been completely corrupted
...
estoc peeks around the corner and sees two of them spray painting the wall while the other two are harassing a metor maid forcing her to take her clothes off while they record it with their phones.
estoc slips into the alleyway sneaking up behind them he tases one and maces the other one .
the other two take one look at the police uniform and suddenly their gone .
disappointed estoc grumbles to himself should have been magicians instead of hoodlums.
he picks up the metor maids clothes tossing them to her.
the kid he maced is trying to get away but can't see yet so he keeps running into stuff yelling dont leave me here devin its actually kinda funny'guess devin is one of the runners
the metor maid thanks me for saving her then hurriedly gathers her purse and leaves.
he strips the guy he tased thinking its probably not a good idea to walk around in stolen police uniform he keeps the handcuffs gun'mace
and taser slipping them into the guys backpack.
the kid had a pretty nice phone and his wallet had 68$ in it so estoc decided to go get breakfast .
