|inside of a dilapidated building a “deal” was being held, a large man about 6,3 was walking towards another man shorter than him about 5,4 with a briefcase|91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99nAw9Nrec
The large man walked towards the short man. “Took you long enough! Now hurry up and give me the case and the “gang” will pay you accordingly.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KmwpWEaYo
The short man looks up at the large man. “Tch, the deal was that you’ll pay me upfront. I have the briefcase so you should be trying to make this as easy as possi-“91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkHLEUye1f
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkF65Z4Qcd1
In the middle of the short man speaking the tall man Punches the short man and grabs him by the collar. “Listen here short stack! I didn’t come all the way out here just to get lectured by a whiny bitch!”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMzp2RckWN
The tall man then throws the short man on the ground. “So do us both a goddamn favor and GIVE ME THE BRIEFCASE!
|As the man was walking toward the short man, presumably trying to take the suitcase by force, they both hear footsteps to their left and to their surprise they see a small robed woman holding daggers approaching them.|
The tall man lets go of the short man and walks towards the robed woman. “Just who the hell are you?! And who told you that we were here!?”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18cz9AKRN9
The robed woman stops in place for a moment. “My name? I won’t tell you. All you should know is that you’re on my territory and you should leave this instant.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAoLXm6vQe
The tall man snickers at the robed woman’s comment. “Your territory? DON’T MAKE ME LAUGH!”
The tall man runs towards the robed woman. LET’S SEE YOU TALK SHIT AFTER I’LL HAVE YOU BEG FOR YOUR LIFE!”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmgdDE8p7p
In an instant the robbed woman appears in-front of the man, the robbed woman has her daggers at the man’s neck. “Oh really now? Me begging for mercy? No but you’ll soon to be begging for your life.”
Locter wakes up from her dream, as she stands up from her throne stretches and yawns, looking down her corridor, admiring it.91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7ue82UCY0
|Locter looks beside as she heard slight breathing, she sees a demon child breathing lightly as she sleep’t|91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPwoXkHoq1
Locter pokes the little girl on her forehead, trying to wake her up. “Hey there! Cmon kid wake up.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEL6YeaQQh9
The child’s eyes fluttered open as she opened her eyes, “O-oh, hey there…”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSAN6FyC6n
The girl stood up and looked at Locter. “Well uhm… I would like to thank you for saving me.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisRv7HtiP1
Locter looks at the girl with a slight smile. “No problem kid. What those people were doing to you was unacceptable and I couldn’t stand to see you suffering in that cage.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs5f5gZhYt
Locter looks around her corridor, not seeing nor sensing anyone in it yet. “Well looks like I’m not getting any company for a bit.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGcnROMuCF
Locter looks at the girl’s attire, seeing that she’s still wearing the same torn rags that Locter found her in while she was inside of that cage. “You’re still wearing that same shirt? You know you can ask for clothes right?”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAD8Bdxhlb
The girls eyes widen as she looked around the corridor until her eyes settled on Locter. “W-wait really?! I don’t see any dressing room nor any room at that…”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCe1olrnCu
|Locter raised her hand slightly and with a singular snap of her finger the girl’s clothes changed into a turtleneck covered up by a white coat with black pants|
Locter looked at the girl with a smirk on her face. “I don’t recall me me asking for your name yet. Do you even have one?”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYKTRNR028
The girl who was still admiring her new outfit looked at Locter. “My name is Piece!”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fR1qyKsre
Locter looked at the girl, tilting her head. “Piece huh. That name needs a little more to it. Don’t you have a nickname?”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1Ua4A7kY1
Piece shook her head. “No. In all honesty I really don’t even know my parents. All I remember was that cage…”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjY8p3vYWF
Locter crouched down to the girl’s height. “Don’t worry Piece, mostly all Corridor caretakers and Corridor candidates don’t remember their past life. Well if Oniell decides to make you into a corridor caretaker that is.”
Piece looked at Locter with a mix of a shocked and confused expression. “W-Wha? Corridor caretaker? Corridor candidates? All of these words mean no sense to me.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdPua6Xt0s
Locter scratched at the freckles on her face as she looked away in embarrassment. “Well uhm, I should have told you about your past world being a corridor. Or I should have explained the basics of corridors…”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQr41yC4EA
|Minutes go by as Locter began to explain what corridors were, telling piece about corridor caretakers and corridor candidates.|91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDy2ODsfLJ
Piece looks at Locter, her hand clenched as she looks at her in awe. “So you’re telling me Corridor caretakers can manipulate these corridors which are practically just universes down to every little detail!? THATS SO COOL!”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqhCh94KD9
Locter nods her head, her ego increasing by the second. “Mhm! That’s right and now since I analyzed the owner of your world or I should say Corridor candidate’s ability with mine, I can now manipulate everything I want in my corridor! I could most likely even create an infinite amount dimensions here if I really wanted to, but there is no point in doing that.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTcTPU9NeS
Piece coughs, composing herself from spewing out more praises she looks down Locter’s corridor. “If I may ask, why is your corridor practically a straight line of black and white walls?”
Locter chuckles at the question. “The reason? Fuhu, the main reason is because it mentally drains the people who enter here.”
Piece looks at Locter, a hint of confusion in her eyes. “It drains them? How so?”
Locter, still looking at Piece sighs. “If you walked in a straight line it feels like time slows down yes? It’s the same thing with my corridor but the only difference is that I can expand or shrink my corridor all i want.”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2m0nS4JdZf
Piece puts her hand on her chin. “I see, so the main reason your corridor is a line is because it lowers people’s sanity to the point it’ll allow you to beat them without any resistance that will put you in harm?”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3RXiZPByk
A large smile appeared on Locter’s face while clapping. “Good job Piece. You’re spot on!”
|As Locter continued clapping her hands, she felt a disturbance in her Corridor, as if someone was trying to tear it apart from the inside|91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3VXLr0Wcl
Locter slumped back in her throne letting out a soft sigh. “And just when I thought nobody was showing up…”91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN9OACWFft
