((tw death))
[HETCH entered the repairs room, the one that contained the corpse of their predecessor. Even though he had been an objective failure as a HETCH, he had still borne the title and thus deserved more respect then to rot on a table. Besides, this room still had a use, one it couldn't fulfill so long as it was it was occupied by someone who couldn't be helped.]
[But the Founder was still going to save him right? They just had to keep playing their role and-]
[HETCH dismissed the annoying voice that apparently could not be silenced entirely, and began to lift up the body with the help of a few Drones. This room would need a deep cleaning before it could be used, the smell alone could cause someone to pass out.]
[I should try to preserve his body as much as possible, it's already going to hurt so much, the least I could do is not let it get worse.]
[The fervent voice was correct to some degree, he had let this body sit for far too long. Being rid of it should have been a higher priority. He couldn't change the past however, and dealing with it now was the best he could do.]
Take him outside the facility and burry him.
[None of this pervious HETCH was worth salvaging for props. The best they could get were his bones, but if they needed bones they had Frank. It also wouldn't be surprising if there an abundance of spare bones from ex-cast members. And if HETCH changed his mind he could always have the drones dig the body back up.]
[And the Drones complied.]
[There was no funeral. No one cried over HETCH's death. If he had any family that would mourn him, they had likely already done so long, long ago. The man behind the previous HETCH was lost and dead to everyone long before the body was killed. Hopefully Diamond would soon follow.]
[I'll bring you back Mario. I promise.]
