Otto busily made a folder of reports to be handed into the Life Labs. Why the task was given to him probably had to do with the fact he'd only just gotten out of his sling. His arm was still sore, and not battle ready. So desk work it would be.
However, being a Death Division computer, a certain secret yet no so secret folder was found buried within its trenches. A folder of some... lude photos. Porn, one might say. Now, Otto was pretty well going to ignore it and stick to business, but some of these pictures were just...
. . No! No, he had a JOB to do!
He was startled as he heard someone open a door, and quickly issued a short key command to copy and paste all the reports he had gathered into the zip drive.
He quickly took out the drive and handed it to the person who'd entered, shoving them out the door as quick as he could, uttering and suggesting if they don't hurry Caelius will come from a mirror and take their soul.
Few. Safe.
However, as he went back to the computer to close it all down, he realized something.
He had copied the wrong folder. The Porn stash was highlighted, not the reports.
"Oh. ********. Me."
A dust cloud in Otto's shape was seen dissipating where he'd stood, his body long gone and dashing around Deus looking for the mystery delivery boy who'd taken the zip drive.

Life work. It was for the most part "safe" as long as you didn't get slated for testing or working on creating your own tech. In this case it was the safer line of work. Roland was being sent to collect reports from other hunters and deliver the files to the appropriate higher ups.
This of course meant being the grunt for every full fledged hunter in the labs today. As such Otto was one of said hunters he was ordered to obey today.
When he arrived at the office he found Otto scrambling to grab the zip drive from the lab computers before shoving it into his hands with a label for Caelius. Something was mentioned about the reports being late, mirrors, Caelius killing Trainee's again. He didn't have time to ask a single thing about the reports before he was shoved back out the room.
Of course he had to haul a** to the next hunter and drop the drive off with another life trainee to be delivered to Caelius. Roland might have his stupid moments but he knew it would be safer to trust someone ELSE having to deal with Caelius when it came to deliveries.
If only he knew just how much trouble he had just put himself and Otto into.

DUDE. BROWN HAIR. DUDE WITH BROWN HAIR. LIFE DUDE WITH---
"YOU!!!" Otto screamed, nearly running right into Roland before grabbing the collar of the slightly shorter man's shirt. Otto didn't have time to bask in the glory of having someone even a tiny bit shorter than himself.
"WHERE IS IT!?!?!?"

Roland turned around eyes wide as someone started screaming from down the hall. He started to back pedal turning to run when Otto closed the gap hauling him an amazing half inch off the floor and shaking him by the collars of his coat.
"WHATIDON'TEVENKNOWPUTMEDOWN!"

"THE ZIP DRIVE I JUST GAVE YOU, NIMROD! WHERE IS IT?!" Otto shrieked in a panic, seeing his life flash before his eyes. Caelius already had him on a hitlist for being non productive. This would end him for sure!
Otto's still healing shoulder cried in pain, causing Otto to wince and let Ro go, clutching his left shoulder, his skin going pale.
"Say you still have it..."

OH THAT DRIVE. So Otto was the hunter who practically threw him back out the door and was now shaking him around like a rag doll. Finally on the ground again he dusted his coat off a bit frowning.
"No... why? Did you forget a file? I passed it off to another lifer who was already going to see Caelius, I didn't want to be the one delivering news good or bad less I get my head chopped off..."
His frown grew deeper.
"You didn't... forget anything did you? In the report?"

Otto went stone cold, his blue eyes hazing into lifelessness. "Its... on its way.. to.." He slowly gulped, gaze dropping to the ground.
"I.. attached the wrong file. I mean a REALLY wrong file. If I don't get that back, I'm a dead man. I ain't even exxaggerating." His eyes darted up, and he pointed a finger at Ro.
"You take me to the guy you gave it to NOW!"

A hand waved past Otto's face trying to bring him down to earth as he stared off in the distance.
"What do you mean wrong file? Caelius.... you know what you said. He won't be happy man." He jumped as Otto pointed a finger at him. "What how what why!? What did you put on that drive!"

"N-NEVER MIND WHAT'S ON IT!" Otto yelled, his face suddenly going from pale to red, stretching to his ear lobes.
"HELP ME GET IT BACK, NOW!!!"
Otto was truly in a panic, about ready to plead and beg.

The change in color and the yelling caused Roland to shrink down a bit trying to back away from the other hunter.
"OKAY OKAY! Back to the main file room, I passed it off to a life trainee with glasses and black hair maybe he's still there okay!?" Brushing past Otto he started to speed walk down the hall.

Otto followed, muttering for Ro to move his a** because this was incredibly important and life threatening. "If I die cause of you, I'm gunna haunt you and make the rest of yer short life even more miserable, so you better hope we find this guy soon."

Roland started to move a bit quicker at Otto's constant grumbling and complaining. "If you die and haunt me I'm going to have to put my scythe through you." Moving into the main room a series of hunters looked up. All life, staring like who the hell invited you two?
"Hey did anyone see a guy with black hair and glasses in here maybe 10 minutes ago? I dropped something off to him."
One of the life hunters rolled his eyes, "Yeah and he left 10 minutes ago to deliver that to Caelius, you think we want to be the ones blamed when he doesn't get a report on time?"

No... it couldn't already be in Caelius's hands, could it?
Otto paled completely.
He was dead. Done. Caelius was already plotting up the perfect way for him to die.
"Okay... gunna go... jump off a cliff... be arr be..." He murmured, dizzy eyed, as he turned and left the room in a slow stagger.

A hand snapped out and grabbed Otto by the collar tugging him back as he tried to leave. Roland was shaking his head before offering a few more tugs towards a door.
"No not yet, follow me." They where deeper in the labs then usual, to get to the dorms, or offices they would need to wind their way back through the labs. Thankfully extended time in the labs had taught Roland a few tricks.
"This way." He continued to tug the dazed Otto about till he finally started following and not murmering and gazing into the distance like a dead man at the noose.
"Hold you're breath this is going to stink but its going to get us out of here and on the way to the labs quicker."

Otto was tugged along, his feet dragging and his stomach twisting. Why porn? Why did he have to die over porn? He'd always hoped if he had to die, it would be so much more meaningful and epic. What Ro had planned was beyond him. They were clearly out of time. There was no way that Caelius didn't already have that disk drive. "Why's it stink?" He asked groggily, holding his nose and glaring ahead of him.
