[VOICE MESSAGE START]
Hello, employee #4327, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, I am [REDACTED]. I am what you consider the gate or mouthpiece of upper management’s will here at [REDACTED] Corporation.
Firstly, you may be confused on why I am using the entire department’s speaker system to address you, a sole somewhat middling employee. Secondly, you are probably as equally confused as to the reason I am messaging you now, in your current situation. I will address both of those points for you.
I am using the entire department’s speakers to address you and only you because there is no one else in this department which leads into the second point, your current situation. As you well know through personal experience, your department has undergone mass meltdowns, leading to the breaching of multiple [REDACTED] which led to an emergency suppression operation that was honestly bound to fail from the very beginning. All head personnel as well as all other staff, from clerks to employees have had their roles miserably terminated as a result, all of them except for you.
I know the current situation is grim, but there is no reason to panic more than you already have, because I have some great news for you, courtesy from upper management of [REDACTED] Corporation! To start off, you will be promoted as the new SECRET head of the [REDACTED] department (The other employees aside from the other department heads and higher in the company will have their memories altered), as there is no one else literally as qualified as you. This promotion comes with the utmost level of job security, you will NEVER have to worry about losing your job, or having someone else usurp your position. You might be thinking why, but the reason is very simple and leads into the next part of good news I have for you!
Because of the sheer level of meltdown and damage caused by the escape of the [REDACTED], all entrances in and out of the department have been blocked off, whether it be by debris, certain [REDACTED] blocking the entrances, or just our very skilled welders melding specific exits shut to prevent the unspoken horrors from leaking into the rest of the other departments, the fact of the matter is that this department is effectively your home now. In all honesty, this would be perceived by other employees as a “death sentence” and you might be thinking this, but allow me to correct you with words from upper management;
This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it
This is not a “death sentence”, this is an opportunity.
Besides that, I have your first and possibly eternal task from upper management. As you well know, your standard job requires you to manage, study, extract [REDACTED] and if needed suppress the multiple [REDACTED] in your department which specializes in [REDACTED]. Typically, you would have a team to help you with this, but since there is no one else you will have to work multiple times folded over to manage the entire department. This of course includes you suppressing all of the currently escaped [REDACTED] all across your department. By yourself obviously.
“…”
There is also a second task. Looking at the current state of things there are… others that hope to come here, to see everything that has occurred and call it and our company a failure in hopes of boosting their own status. Whether it be, other corporations, Cleaners, Repairmen, information brokers, company traitors ect. ect. Let these words seep into your very being.
We do not make mistakes, we do not make miscalculations, we do not and have ever failed at anything, EVER.
Your second task is to kill anyone that comes down here, whether it be on purpose or mistake, whether they be friend or foe, whether they be man, women or child, your job is to find and kill them.
“…”
As a final note, do not worry about trivial things such as food and water. You may not know it, but we suspect the reason you survived and will continue to survive has to do with your exposure to one of the [REDACTED], altering your body into… something else. In any case, there is no reason to panic about starvation or even exhaustion for that matter.
That is all the information I have for you at this time, I may be instructed to contact you again, but its best for you assume that this is the first and last time you’ll receive a message from me or anyone from upper management. We look forward to your renewed service as the new secret head of the [REDACTED] department!
