"Sure." "I remember one thing. Back in 1987."

He sighed, a half-wistful, half-haunted look in his eyes.

"Never gonna forget that day. I was always the back-room bot, working on everyone else. This day was quiet. Some guy led kids into the room all of a sudden. All right, just play deactifvated. I figured I'd say something later."

He let out a hoarse chuckle that wasn't really a chuckle but more of a mask to hide his regret.

"I thought a lotta things. And so I think I'm going to chew this guy out. And then he shuts the door, declaring hide-and-seek in the dark."

He pauses.

"Shoulda done something then. The second the lights went out, I could hear a knife. I'd thought it was just a kid sliding on the floor, but... I stopped thinking that when I heard the first stab, the wet piercing of flesh and the child screaming. Ligaments tearing and blood gushing. More stabs. The lights were on now and four kids were trying to get out alive. One was hiding, one was pretending to have had a heart attack, one was trying to open the door, and one was attacking the man. The attacking kid got merked first. Knife to the throat. And then door kid found something else get opened, i. e. the back of his skull. I would have vomited but I was too stiff from all the shock and everything in my mind to move at all. Hider got an endoskeleton piece through his heart. And then play-dead got stabbed through the gut three times for good measure."

He took another breath.

"I will never forget anything that happened that day. And I remembered his face. He wore purple, and he had a distinct face. He walked out in a spare suit he hid somewhere like nothing happened."

The misery and anger in his voice was almost palpable.

"I couldn't even speak. Left me somewhat traumatized and fully wanting to kill him."

He started fixing again.

"If that bastard is the same one I think it is, then everyone better put aside their fucking gripes. We have revenge to enact that's been in the making for way too long."
