Revenge of a loyal employee

The man edges toward the water, the artificial lake beneath him a murky green color. The maintenance area is filled with ship pieces, and tools, devices for repairing the giant fake pirate ship that patrols these waters. Machinery hisses and moans in the background, the low hum of the computers around it almost completely drowned out. The man reaches up, and wipes the tears from his eyes. Tears filled with the anger over years of unrecognized service. He clutches a small plastic bag, filled partly with water. He hesitates, unable to accomplish what he has set out to do. "A failure" he mumbles, "even at revenge". Tears pour through clenched eyes, as he starts to falter in his plan...
His eyes snap open suddenly, revenge building inside of him uncontrollably. The bag in his hand squeaks as he increases tension. The man leans over the green water, and dumps the bag in. The waters mix together in the lake, his deed completed...

The creature has been freed, and revenge has been set in motion...
