As the lights flashed, a sudden and single crack of thunder erupted through The Machine's Herald's laboratory. Viktor raised his half-Hextech arm, shielding his eyes from the burst. Allowing his fragile human eyes a second to readjust to the dim lighting of his lab, he cursed out with his robotic voice, "Velrik!"
The tiny sounds of metal clicking and shifting gears echoed through the room as Velrik skittered across the floor. Viktor's lab assistant, a small Hextech creature with eight pump activated legs, scaled the workbench and sat looking up at the Herald.
"Flip the switch," Viktor emulated, "The experiment was a failure."

A scrap of paper lay across the table bearing a portrait of a handsome young man with an ornate-looking hammer. The caption read, "Piltover's Own 'Defender of Tomorrow' Hailed as Valoran's Greatest Inventor, Nominated for Yordle Academy Award."
The article was stained with ink and oil, but bits of it were still legible, particularly those concerning the nature of the Defender's hailed inventions.

A light hum that emulates from florescent lighting filled the laboratory when the room was lit; Valrik had obeyed. Viktor eyes caught the sight of the ink-stained article torn from the Journal of Justice. "You know, Velrik," The Herald uttered picking up the scrap of paper with his shoulder-Hextech arm, "I don't normally buy copies of the Journal, but this article..." His voice trailed.
With a sudden mechanical laugh, Viktor crumpled the paper in with the Hextech fingers, "Valoran's Greatest Inventor? Defender of Tomorrow?" The Herald threw the paper ball across the lab, causing Velrik to scamper towards the liter. A tiny Hextech weapon emerged from the lab assistant and fired a small laser, incinerating the paper.
"Was it not I that invented the greatest weapon on the Fields of Justice? Was it not my research that resurrected that Noxian warrior?" Valrik scuttered across the lab floor, scaling the workbench legs, and sat in attention to the Machine Herald. "Stanwick. And this Jayce, the smug fool. Tomorrow does not need a defender. All I need is an energy source, and tomorrow will be the glorious evolution."
Viktor turned to the doorway of his lab, snatched his augmented staff, and his cloak. "Valrik, activate the security machines. It's time to pay a visit to the Widowmaker."

(( While Viktor is absent from his Lab, a bevy of Hextech Security guards stand guard at the doors. Anyone foolish enough to attempt to break in (that includes you, Jayce) will not only find Velrik, his tiny robotic spider and lab assistant, but also find a great deal of lasers shot right at them. ))

After the meeting on the institute one of the first’s visits that Singed made was to Viktor’s laboratory. After all if there was a man that could help him on preparing Zaun and even Valoran from the upcoming treats (besides chief Magnus) was The Machine Herald. He had testified the prowess of the Herald’s inventions on the fields and while his own armament was not overshadowed by The Herald’s some of his invention could be adapted to messy battle fields were precision was as necessary as destruction. And so Singed stood on the Heralds gate and knocked the door three times.

At the scientists rap on the Viktor's lab doors, a panel flips open, exposing a monitor which read, "Welcome Singed." The doors to the lab proceeded to open allowing the mad chemist his entrance inside. Valrik scurried around the lab, flipping light switches to allow the chemist the view of a number of new Hextech machines and robotic limbs.
Meanwhile, Viktor's trip back to Zaun from the Institute was eventless. The few citizens that passed him kept their heads low and rushed to be away from his sight. Arriving in Zaun, the Herald greeted his associate, "Singed. Welcome. I was actually planning on making a trip to your mansion, but you seem to have made my job much easier. Can I get you anything?"
