MORI

The Psychopath knocks the Survivor to the ground and begins slashing and stabbing through the Survivor's body, laughing hysterically as he enjoys the violence. When he is done, he watches the Survivor choke to death on their own blood. He pulls them in and stabs them in the throat, ripping out the knife as blood gushes from the open wound. The Psychopath then stands up from their dead body, chuckling as he licks the blood off of his knife.
