<Mordor, Droids v. Pirates>

Aster: Aster. I'm from ZFT's Main Intelligence Directorate.

<Aperture Science>

*Sheppard walks down the corridor, then suddenly hides behind another bin*

*he points to a group of droids blocking the corridor*

DUSh: It's a good thing they didn't spot us. We need an alternate route.

<F-Blackout's ship>

F-Blackout: You are on-board the Darksyde. And I am Blackout. Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Makuta, Conqueror of the Universe, Destroyer of the Shadow Proclamation, and He who Owns all Titles in the Known Universe.....AND YOUR NEW LORD AND MASTER. Have I made your location and my identity clear enough?

<Space, Seran's Starfighter>

Seran: Nonsense! I've been there menee times, got friends there. Once we've landed you can go free, or stay with me of you like. I'm not sure what I weel do.

--------------------------

<Black rocky planet>

*SMK starts absent-mindedly twirling one of his blades in his hand*

SMK: What makes your master think he is still alive? Last I heard, his antidermis was incinerated.

--------------------------------

*Travelling incredibly fast, something enters the atmosphere of Corrantia. It is a man inside a suit, and inside the headpart he is reading information on the HUD*

Tony Stark: *whistle* Looks like my old enemy is here. Well this time I've made even more upgrades to my suit.

*He turns right and slows down his descent. He hovers over the ground and flies into the window of an expensive building*

---------------------------------

<Teruga Prime>

*Vok presses the button on the wall, and many more Terugans from the marine forces smash through the windows and shoot at the pirates. Vok runs to another wall, presses a button, and the wall spins around, leaving him on the other side and in a secret tunnel which he then runs through*

---------------------------------

<BZP>

Hapori Dume: I help no-one. To think I do would be a grave mistake.

*He charges two of his swords with explosive energy, throws them into the ground in front of The Architect, and scampers away*

Hapori Dume: I will escape from this place.

[Bei Fong School]

*Ynot takes his bowl in one hand, and turns one of his fingers into a spoon and begins enjoying the brew*

Ynot: Delicious, My compliments to the Chef!

[BZP, Orion and Tercio v. MY and Omi]

*MY's Speeder takes the hit and the front end shifts into a drill, burrowing underneath the ground*

*Omi: Suuuu..man, my head hurts, what just happened? Did I drink one too many last night? last I remember B6 sent me to kill some punk.

MY: Come in commander. The Bus has been destroyed, complete ambush, orders?

[Miami, Florida]

Shaern: Who are these mooks? They look like one of Sasuken's shifts.

Sonia: Pretty sure they are this countries armed forces.

Shaern: So, I should be scarred?

Sonia: Hon, you NEVER are scarred.

Shaern: Hmm, true. Hey boys, who wants a kiss?

*The marines are very confused, one raises his hand, but is slapped*

Shaern: Oh, darn. Oh well, guess I just have to burn you all then.

*Shaern forms two balls of flame in her hands and tosses them into their ranks, detonating and spreading pain*

Toph: *Is on her third bowl*

Chef: *Tries to gently slow her down*

*However, the pot is nowhere near empty*

*The feast goes on*

[ Stormy Planet, Tomb: ]

Vriska: *Uses a warhammer to bash through a door*

*She finds herself beside a destroyed set of stairs, with numerous precarious stone bridges winding between platforms*

*With howls, swifter undead with forward-pointing horns begin leaping from platform to platform towards her*

Vriska: *Rolls her dice, praying for an accurate weapon* ...Craaaaaaaap. >::::

*Finds a pair of rocket boots formed on her lower-shins and feet*

*Scooping up her dice, Vriska leaps to the air and snapkicks both boots downward*

PSHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

*Jetting around with her arms out to balance, Vriska jets down towards the undead's leader*

*Deactivating the boots briefly, she slides along the wet bridge - Knocking seven undead into the churning waters several meters below*

*Taking flight again, Vriska continues darting around and knocking undead down*

*Soon, they're all beaten back to death in the riptides below*

*Just in time, Vriska's boots deactivate as she lands on the precipice of a cavern mouth*

*Tilting her way in, Vriska does a couple of frontflips to save herself*

*With a chuckle, she heads further in*

<BZP, B6 v. the Architect>

*the Architect ignores the swords, then pulls out his radio*

T-A: "Well, MY, like I've been asking you for what must be the last twenty minutes, WHERE ARE THE CLONES?!"

*he then punches B6 across the face*

T-A: Your reign of terror on behalf of the Great Beings is over, Six!

B6: No it's not.

*he fires a ray of energy at the Architect, blasting him backwards into a wall*

-----

<BZP, Orion and Tercio v. MY and Omi>

*Orion and Tercio turn to Omi*

Orion: Then we are on the same side. I am Orion Pax, leader of the Knights of the Great Beings. This is Tercio, my second-in-command and weapons expert. And we can still take down that "punk", as you call him, but we have to find the other Staff and mount a counterattack against the rebels first!

-----

<Teruga Prime>

DS: I figured this might be an issue.

*the Pirates draw their blades and start slashing their way past the Terugans*

-----

<the black rocky planet>

Abeloth: Reply: Available data indicates that no individual with the name 'Kakamu' has ever been known to die permanently.

*he scans SMK*

Abeloth: Result of scan: Scan indicates your energy signature is similar to that of the one I am looking for. Margin of error: 0.01%. You will come with me.

-----

<the Shattered Mirror II site>

*a being suddenly flies out of the Mirror*

*he appears to be a human wearing a silver version of the Iron Man suit with more weapons*

*the ZFT troops shoot at him, but he just flies off at high speeds towards Corrantia*

-----

[BZP, MY's Speeder]

MY: The clones? my agent should have been there fifteen minutes ago with them.
----

[BZP, B6 v. the Architect]

*Poe arrives with the clones*

Poe: Sorry, the Blackout doppelganger tried to usurp power, three times. He's a little broken now, but he can still fight.

Blackout Clone: CRAZY WENCH RIPPED MY ARM OFF FROM A CLICK AWAY!

Poe: And then i put it back on.

BC: UPSIDE DOWN!

Poe: You want me to take it off and fix it?

BC: No

Poe: Didn't think so, shut up. Architect, the cast is here for your bidding.
----

[BZP, MY's Speeder]

MY: It sounds like the clones are on the scene. Orders?

*Ynot finishes his bowl*

Ynot: Delicious. where would you like me to wash my dish?

*the asteroids that were destroyed follow the laws of rock breaking, dispersing into smaller asteroids which head right towards Demon's Run*

*two more massive asteroids are seen in the distance*

---

*DM Helryx crouches, then kicks the gun out of SM Naterohk's hand, and shoots her with a blast of water*

*she throws water balls at the others, grabs the gun in midair, and aims it at the Pilot*

*looking at DRJ's hologram, she speaks*

DM Helryx: "*huff* No one is innocent. I agree. Which is why justice will find you, and kill you. But, for some reason, I feel that I will not be the one who has that pleasure."

---

DK: "Lolwut...Well, that could be useful. *opens a portal under the Monopoly money, and they go into his cell*."

*a small part of D-Klak's brain tries to make him realize that he can escape through such a portal, but the ginger ale is too strong for him to agree, and he continues drinking*

---

*Keichi, the Pirate, and Quick Billy crash onto the ground, and groan in pain*

Quick Billy: "Dang flabbit....ugh.."

---

*Caiaphus yells, and jumps back*

*he raises his arm in the air*

Caiaphus: "Kraata powers would not be fully effective. I shall use another attack....in the meantime...."

*a powerful cyclone spins around him, and heads straight towards TPK*

---

Me: You were part of ZFT. I'm Klak. A Makuta. You know, a Bionicle. *looks at the screen with a troll face for some reason, then looks back at Aster* That guy next to me is Jortenn Karzdus, and the other is Rainn Sulrai. The two Malchiorians are Peter and Jinx. Treat them nicely. Can you walk, or do you need someone to carry you into the hospital? In the meantime, tell me more about yourself, Aster.

Rainn and Jortenn: "By the way, we're clones."

---

DU Uterio: "We either make an alternate route *points at the wall* or search for one."

---

F-Rahn: "Nope.avi *stretches his neck* But the name Blackout sounds familiar.....you...YOU WERE MY ENEMY! *desperately searches for a weapon, then realizes he there is none* Bloody hell. This world's gone mad. Where is Caiaphus? What do you want with me?"

---

*Ultron happens to be walking with HK-47 near the expensive building Stark is in*

---

*MK runs into Dilius once again*

Dilius: "You wanted me to convert, didn't you?"

MK: Yep.

Dilius: "No! You are offensive! Your child is a plastic worshipping scumbag who should kill himself so I can prove my point! The only religion I follow is Tilius-ism!"

MK: On second thought, I'll just lock you in an asylum.

*they charge at each other*

<BZP>

*User KoN walks towards MK*

-----------------------------

<Black Rocky Planet>

*SMK stands up*

SMK: Of course I will.

*DUK is confused, but SMK whispers something to him and he nods*

----------------------------

<Corrantia>

*Iron Man looks out of the window, and sees Ultron and HK-47*

IM: Hmm.

*He opens the window, and fires a rocket at HK-47, which explodes underneath his feet. Iron Man ducks*

<BZP, B6 v. the Architect>

*the Architect gets up, and throws a grenade at B6*

T-A: Clearly, it's time to sic 'em all on Boss Man.

-----

<BZP, KoN's location>

*suddenly, ~Infinity~ appears in front of User KoN*

~Infinity~: Halt! You are not a fan of HF! Therefore, I will misuse minor technicalities in your statements and make them out to be proof of your evilness rather than actually challenge your point, which I am incapable of doing! HI-YA!

*he takes out a flamethrower and fires it at KoN*

-----

<Demon's Run, Attack of the Asteroids>

*the fortress shoots lasers and missiles at the asteroids*

-----

<Demon's Run, D-Klak's cell>

*another barrel of ginger ale appears in the cell*

-----

<Demon's Run, Helryx v. Naterohk>

*SMNaterohk is thrown backwards*

SMNa: Why do I always have to fight people of the same element?

*she fires water balls at Helryx*

-----

<Mordor, Droids v. Pirates>

*Straxus suddenly jumps into the air, and transforms into his huge flying cannon mode*

Straxus: Targets sufficiently damaged. Phase two of termination will now commence. Escape is not permitted.

*he charges up a huge plasma blast, and fires it at the ship*


*BP fires a fire blast at Keichi, then turns and swings at SMT*

-----

<Mordor, TPK v. Caiaphus>

*TPK starts draining air from around Caiaphus, then fires it all back at him*

-----

<Malchior IV>

*Aster glares at Klak, then walks to the hospital*

-----

<Aperture Science>

DUSheppard: Good idea.

*he attaches some C4 to the wall*

DUSh: I'm not sure I thought this through very well.....

*the C4 explodes, creating a hole in the wall but also sending Sheppard flying and attracting the attention of the droids, who start shooting at him and Uterio*

-----

<the black rocky planet>

*Abeloth opens a portal and walks into it*

-----

<Corrantia>

*the silver Iron Man arrives on top of Stark's expensive building*

SIM: I sense my counterpart here.....

*he fires a pulse blast, then rockets down to wherever Iron Man is*

SIM: YOU! It is time for you to be witness to the rage of IRON MAN!

-----

<Blackout's office>

*the mysterious man appears in the office*

Blackout: Hello, BlackZarak. How did the meeting go?

BlackZarak: The Pirates weren't there. I decided to leave and come back later.

Blackout: Hm. Ah well, we shall have to proceed without them. They would've been a valuable smokescreen, though. Now, I want you to lead a strike force to the Persei system. There is something there which I want.....dearly.....

B-Z: Yes, Lord General. *walks off*

Blackout: *to himself* Project Omega will soon be mine. And when it is.....

-----

<the far future, the Darksyde>

F-Blackout: Caiaphus is gone - FINISHED! He's been wiped off the face of reality. I have taken over the multiverse. However, a certain gnat is trying to take it from me. His name is Klak. I believe you know him quite well.

*pause for effect*

F-Blackout: Anyway, both sides in this war are manipulating time to ensure their chosen outcome. Klak is trying to annoy his past self by infecting Malchiorians with some sort of plague. My plan is rather.....different than that. I wish to send emissaries to the past to commit terrorist acts. What say ye?

-----

MK: Ohai KoN *pushes Dilius at him*

Dilius: "Uh, I was being sarcastic!"

MK: FOR THE YONOLUTION!

---

*HK-47 leaps out of the way of the missile*

HK-47: "Query: Lolwut?"

Ultron: "That is Iron Man. We've had a bad history. Plus, he fought in Neo Z'traa. Advisable course of action is to watch these two fight, then attack the weakened survivor

---

*more asteroids asplode, others are destroyed. The rest keep going*

---

D-Klak: "Moar. *drinks from both barrels somehow*"

---

*DM Helryx is knocked back by the water balls*

DMH: "Well. This is awkward. *shoots SM Naherotok with the gun*"

---

*SM Treveya falls to the floor, right in front of IG-88*

SMT: "Heh, well, *grunt* I usually want people to take me to dinner first."

Keichi: "*is knocked down to the ground by Black Phantom's attack, gets up, and sees that the ship blew up* NO! Not another ship! Is it impossible to keep a ship for, like, one year?"

Quick Billy: "Mighty bad luck ya have there, Keichi."

---

*Caiaphus is knocked back by the air, and smashes into a nearby tent*

*just when TPK thinks he has defeated the Makuta, a shadow appears behind him, and Caiaphus steps out*

*he puts his claw near the Great Being's face, and lightly strokes it*

Caiaphus: "Tell all you know who I am. Makuta Caiaphus. *pauses* Hmm. Your mind is difficult to penetrate. But one name popped out.....Blackout, eh? Send him my regards. *disappears with a flicker*"

---

Jortenn: "Well, Klak, you have a way with women."

Me: Thank you. But I doubt I'll ever find interest in a ZFT agent. *follows Aster* Tell me more about yourself, Aster. How could someone as pretty as you end up in the ranks of ZFT? Surely, David Robert Jones and Blackout aren't that attractive.

*Jinx glares at Klak for a second, while Peter holds his laughter. Rainn and Jortenn simply walk forward*

---

DU Uterio: "Take this! *dodges the lasers and punches one of the droids*"

---

Rahn: "Caiaphus? Obliterated? I doubt it, but alright. And I find the fact that Klak is alive quite...interesting. I will aid you against him and his allies. Especially his Dark Mirror counterpart. That ******* tore my face up *points at his face*."

---

*while two Knights of the Great Beings are too busy hiding from zombie Uterio, Caiaphus sneaks onto a ship, and flies away*

*he lands near Keichi and co.*

Caiaphus: "Get on!"

*some of the pirates are firing at the droids while entering*

*Treskis and Quick Billy do so as well*

OOS: Hope I'm not forgetting anything or anyone.

<BZP, B6 v. the Architect>

*the Architect swings his cricket bat madly at B6, but he evades each blow*

B6: Your continued fighting is hopeless!

*the Architect promptly kicks B6 in the crotch, and he falls to the ground*

<Demon's Run, asteroid rain>

*the barrage against the asteroids continues*

-----

<Demon's Run, Helryx v. SMNaterohk>

*Naterohk ducks, then snatches a fire extinguisher off the wall and swings it at Helryx*

*DRJ's hologram is still watching*

-----

<Demon's Run, security room>

*the guards are laughing their faces off at how D-Klak is getting drunk when he could easily escape*

-----

<Mordor, TPK v. Caiaphus battlefield>

*TPK walks back to his office, and contacts Blackout*

Blackout Hologram: Yes, TPK?

TPK: I was told to forward this to you. Someone has returned.....someone who knows you. His name is Caiaphus.

BH: WHAT?! That blasted fool is still alive?! Very well. Perhaps some pests require more.....personal intervention to exterminate. He will be dealt with at a later date. Blackout, out.

*hologram disappears*

-----

<Mordor, Droids v. Pirates>

*the droids are firing at the ship when suddenly, BP stops them*

IG-88: Query: Why?

BP: That operation was target practice. Now, we must analyze the data acquired and then proceed with further termination. In addition, those were secondary targets at best. We should not be side-tracked by secondary targets.

*the droids walk off*

-----

<Malchior IV>

*Aster tries and fails to not laugh*

Aster: I did say I was in Intelligence.....

-----

<Aperture Science>

*the droid goes flying*

*Sheppard jumps into the hole in the wall*

-----

<the far future, the Darksyde>

F-Blackout: I'm glad you are cooperative. O valde umbra, largior novus vox super is unique, ut is servo vos quod mihi puteus.

*a sort of black mist appears and swirls around Rahn before seeping into his skin/armour/whatever*

F-Blackout: Very well. Now you can shape-shift. And now it is time for you to meet your teammate.

*a black-armoured Makuta with purple stripes running down his armour walks out of the shadows*

Shadow Blade: Hi. I'm Shadow Blade.

-----

[BZP, Architect VS B6]

Poe: You heard him. All forces assail Black Six.

*They all attack, a myriad of blasts rallying against the Admin as they close the distance, metal spears fall, Light balls assail, Ceros rain, Solidified Shadow Energy and Eclipse bolts accentuate the assault*

<BZP>

KoN: Yow!

*He jumps back from the flames, and turns his Skyblaster into a rocket launcher, which he then blows up ~Infinity~ with*

KoN: Silly pyro. I've had practice.

*At a dump, there is a food van offering food to a line of homeless people. The guy at the front buys lots of chicken and sits down around a makeshift fire with some other people. He starts eating furiously*

*The honks continue sporadically*

Vriska: *Continues up staircase*

*She has to force herself*

[Bei Fong School]

Ynot nods and sets it down next to the kettle, then speaks to the student telepathically*

Ynot: Good to know that just because a teacher is stubborn and unruly, does not mean the students are the same. Well, I think it be time for me to teach you a bit more, sifu.

*Ynot twirls his index finger in small circles, metal pooling in front of it, swirling in the same pattern, creating a vortex*

Ynot: When being manipulated, metal prefers patterns, geometry, logic, sanity. Earth is chaotic, as it is numerous metals blended together, so manipulating it doesn't require as much refinement. Metal demands it.

*After he has created a circle about as high as Toph's waist, he bangs his forearm against it, forcing two metal rungs to protrude and secure his arm in*

Ynot: With this knowledge, try to forge a weapon, and attack me.

*the remaining asteroids head towards Demon's Run*

*the ship Caiaphus, Keichi, and the other pirates are in has left*

SMT: "This mission was a bloody disaster! You didn't even possess Uterio's body long enough!"

Caiaphus: "There was an unforeseen thing blocking me from taking the Generallissimo's army. However, they were fooled into thinking that he was alive for a moment. That is enough for rumors to spread around the universe. Now, Blackout knows about my return."

Keichi: "We were fooled for a bit too, but why the heck do you care that a dumb Makuta knows about your existence?"

Treskis: "Did you forget who he was-des?"

Caiaphus: "You both are only looking at the smaller picture. I tend to plan ahead. When your enemies know that you are near, they will become paranoid. Several of their regular tasks will be forgotten as they focus on planning for your arrival and attack. At the precise moment they leave their guard open, we will strike. Blackout runs an army, and from what I hear, so does Klak. Let them be prepared against us and forget their priorities. Chaos will ensue. And in the midst of it, I will reign."

Aradia: *Keeps Jack frozen*

Jack: *Rage is palpable, even through the time-warp trapping him*

Aradia: W0ndering h0w I reached G0d-Tier when y0u blew all 0f 0ur dreamselves up?

*A rippling hologram appears behind her, cycling through images of Aradia's life*

*It focuses on her "normal" - With the sign of Ares in dark red on her black t-shirt, a long gray skirt, and neat black shoes*

Aradia: Well, I'll give y0u the full sh0w. Here I am, antag0nizing Vriska. I paid f0r that, by the way!

*After this, it shows a huge land of glowing blue and purple crystal, with faint music trickling from the image; several huge buildings rest there, resembling musical boxes and other such devices*

Aradia: Heeere's my planet, the Land 0f Quartz and Mel0dy. I f0und it quite helpful in time travel and 0ther time-related matters, and we were lucky that it survived t0 the current Sessi0n. Y0ur f0rmer/un-f0rmer master is watching 0ver it until we can meet, but I can access it at any time. Ya see, its crystals enable greater f0cus in seeing thr0ugh the past and future 0f a c0ntained time stream 0r l00p, and with0ut them, we might have never been able t0 help User Zev and c0mpany this time ar0und.

*Next, it shows her with blank white eyes and ragged clothes, hovering with a faint, pale aura surrounding her - One hand raised, face expressionless*

Aradia: As f0r h0w I ended up in 0ur Sessi0n under such 0dd circumstances: Shenanigans is all y0u need t0 kn0w. Anyways, the part c0ncerning y0u. I'll just tell y0u.

Aradia: When y0u blew up Derse, my dreamself was already 0n my Quest C0c00on. I knew what y0u were g0ing to l0gically d0, s0 I acted preemptively. Unf0rtunately, I wasn't able t0 sleep and bec0me active 0n Derse in time t0 tell the 0thers that 0ur Quest C0c00ns were there.

Aradia: C0mplicated, I kn0w. Y0u might be w0ndering: W00f w00f? 0r in layman's terms H0w did y0u get t0 y0ur Quest C0c00n if y0ur dreamself never became active? I leave y0u with the 0nly answer y0u'll ever get 0utta me:

Aradia: [i]Shenanigans! Smell ya later! *Releases Jack for a split moment, before a massive telekinetic force strikes him*

Jack: ... *Immediately rights himself, only to find Aradia long gone* ...

*He next sees that the mass of light has floated far off into the dark reaches*

[ Foggy Swamp: ]

*At last, at last, Yoruichi and Namah are nearing the heart of the swamp*

*As they walk, the path is growing more solid with roots and is beginning to slope upward*

*Without warning, a number of huge, serpentine brutes with blunt, crocodillian muzzles trundle out of the brush*

Namah: *Having rehearsed in case of this, keeps halo lit and remains close above Zev to protect him*

Yoruichi: ... *Looks to the attackers* ...I've seen your kind before. And I know you're pretty dangerous.

Leader: Sss...Do not patronizzss ussss, Shihouin. You killed many of our kind in yearssss passst...It issss time the favor wasss returned.

Yoruichi: ...You're all well-versed in the lore and customs of the Onmitsukido, due to being hunted by them. But what if I told you something even their current Captain only learned from me?

*Abruptly, her entire body begins to flicker with energy, and her clothes begin to distort*

*From behind Namah, two more figures lunge to attack her*

*However, a pair of fiery tendrils - As well as the transparent flame-effigy of the S.O.F.'s head - Burns them to cinders before they can touch her*

Yoruichi: Nice try. *Her vest is slowly tearing itself to shreds, buffeted by unseen forces*

Leader: *Raises hand, signalling his troops to begin channelling fulminous dark spells*

Yoruichi: *Vest has been shredded, revealing a sleeveless, backless black top underneath*

*All around her gathers a searingly bright aura of crackling energy*

Yoruichi: This technique is why the Second Division's Captain wears a uniform with no sleeves or back.

*As all of the spells are launched, Yoruichi calmly holds her fist out*

*Sparks leap from her fist to the spell's courses, and they rupture harmlessly in mid air*

Yoruichi: Shunko would just destroy them anyway.

*With a fierce leap, she delivers a roundhouse kick forward*

*The resulting shockwave kills two of the enemies instantly*

*However, enough survive to assume a new formation*

Yoruichi: *Lands, keeping her stance firm*

[ Stormy Planet, Tomb: ]

*At last, Vriska has reached the final room*

*For a while, she simply stares at the complex puzzle-system working it*

*With a shrug, she rolls the Fluorite Octet and takes a few steps back*

*In a glorious blast of blue flames and smoke, the rusted door is blown into tiny pieces*

Vriska: When in dou8t, 8low it the f### up. May8e my luck is starting to tuuuuuuuurn. >::::]

*Scooping up the dice, she haughtily makes her way through the passage beyond*

*Into the tomb she steps, expecting to find huge weapons and treasures galore*

*However, all that rests within is an unadorned, rectangular coffin*

*She's about to storm over and work on opening it, when a needling feeling hits the back of her head*

Vriska: *Cries out in pain, falling to her knees and dropping the dice*

*The roll produces a glowing blue dagger, though it's far out of her reach*

*Before her eyes, the lid of the tomb is punched so hard from within that it topples clear off*

*Up and out rises a robust female of her kind with incredible height; a mane of hair, horns, facepaint, and an outfit resembling the Grand Highblood's; and a pair of large juggling clubs ringed by spikes just above the handles in her grasp*

Sledge Mama: Thank you, descendant of Mindfang, FOR BEING SOOO F###IN' STUPDID. You seriously thought THAT A MEDIOCRE BLUEBLOOD LIKE YOU could outmatch the psychic powers OF A MOTHERF###IN' HIGHBLOOD? The Highbloods, the SUBGUGGLATORS, always were and always will be HIGHER THAN ALL OF YOU. Now, excuse me while I TAKE MY GRACEFUL MOTHERF###ING EXIT.

*In a chaotic blur of shadows and noise, Vriska finds herself left up on the stony precipice with the Fluorite Octet just outside of her grasp*

*However, not a trace is left of the tomb - It has completely and utterly disappeared*

Vriska: ...8##########h... *Goes into a dead faint*

*Suddenly, a crimson glow appears above her*

Aradia: Well, I supp0se this g0es t0 pr0ve that even a master 0f time shenanigans can't always predict where the c0urse 0f events will diverge in a new directi0n. Up y0u g0.

*Hand outstretched, she carefully lifts Vriska up telekinetically and places the Octet into her hands*

*With a flicker, they both disappear*

*For a few heartbreaking moments, she can't help but be waylaid by images of her lusus*

*As the memories rush on, the uncanny, insectoid creature with its disturbingly humanoid, gaunt face can be seen quietly conversing with her*

*This is up until memories start to flash by of meteors falling and encroaching sadness*

Kanaya: *Shakes head furiously until the memories leave her*

*Soon, she heads down an elevator to the oasis with laptop box in tow*

*More of a force of habit, Kanaya looks over the landscaping*

*She thinks on what to do with an overgrown shrub*

*High above, the sun never once moves*

*In the sky's center, it remains*

but i thought of this for kanaya

*Within, Feferi and Master Big Star sit at a beaten table*

Master Big Star: *Sips a cup of tea* ...My. How did you make this? It's delicious!

Feferi: W)(AL---E, glub glub! I normally clam up and keep that kind of t)(ing to myself, but since you were so nice, I'll tell you! T)(ere were some regular ol' tea packets in a capsule nearby, perfectly preserved, and I added in some citrus slices and berries to sweeten it instead of sugar! Since t)(ere's none around, glub glub!

Master Big Star: I see. Well...If you don't mind my asking, I have to get to the point. Time is of the essence. First and foremost, what can you tell me about Jack Noir?

Feferi: ... *Smile falters* )(e's...A dangerous guy. Really dangerous. T)(ere was a Jack Noir in our Session, but )(e was just an aid in completing t)(e game. In our Session, if we could complete )(is quest line, )(e would assassinate t)(e Black Queen for us so we'd only )(ave to fig)(t the Black King.

Feferi: W)(atever )(appened in t)(e Session t)(at created t)(is Jack Noir, it was a total catastrop)(e. )(e managed to travel back in time to our Session, and stop us just s)(ort of winning the game. T)(en...T)(en, he wrecked everyt)(ing, and killed most of our dreamselves. Aradia's dreamself died on Derse - T)(at's )(ow s)(e reac)(ed God-Tier. Vriska's dreamself found someway to escape, and is being preserved wit)(out )(er knowing. T)(e s)(ock was so great t)(at s)(e )(as no idea )(er dreamself on Prospit actually did make it. Sollux made sure to protect it, since we'll need all the )(elp we can get - T)(e more God-Tiers, t)(e better.

Master Big Star: I...See. I'm sorry to bring up such painful memories for you. I apologize if I've caused you any -

Feferi: )(-E-E)(---E---E! It's fine, don't worry about it, glub glub! My dreamself got cut in )(alf at the stomac)( so quickly t)(at I didn't )(ave a c)(ance to feel it! Please, )(ave some more tea, glub glub glub!

Dr Hax: HAAAX! HAAAAAAAAAAX!

KoN: Ah well.

Trantoshen: Come on father. Leave Muta to sort this out himself, we have a job to do.

Aster: Anyway. Blackout and Jones are ramping up their propaganda campaign. Frenzy!

Frenzy appears out of nowhere and plays a holographic recording*

*the recording is of a propaganda video portraying the Malchiorians infected by F-Klak, set to a melodramatic narrator claiming that this is the effect of Klak and Nadle testing bioweapons on them*

Aster: I think you can guess where this is going. They're going to attack, and I can tell you where.

BlackZarak: I'm afraid so.

-----

<Malchior IV again>

Aster: From what I can tell, Uterio built a weapon of unimaginable power, as a final contingency in case he failed to take the universe by the standard method. He hid it somewhere in the Omega system. And now Blackout's found out about it, and he's sent a fleet to secure it. I don't think any more needs to be said.

-----

Tavros: uHHHHH, wELL, oKAY,,,iF YOU, uH, sAY SO,,,

Equius: Just don't try to pick a fight like some f001hardy imbecile. Your chances are %ponentially better just not rea%ing to Vriska's entrance.

Tavros: wOW! uH, tHANKS FOR THE ADVICE, eQUIUS! yOU'RE JUST AS NICE AS, wELL, nEPETA ALWAYS SAYS! hAHAHAH!

Poe: I am taking these two, you are going to let me, or I will make your life a living hell.

*He then takes out a device that looks like a USB stick, except it has a small flip-screen attached to its side, like you would find on a camcorder*

[ ???, Cave: ]

*All over, pictures are painted in a myriad of hues*

*On the floor is a messy paintset and brush, while the wall bears a number of boxes and symbols*

*From the floor rises Nepeta, laying atop a stiff animal pelt for a nap*

*Stretching as she rises up, Nepeta inspects her cave idly*

*For a moment, she contemplates a small, worn spot in the corner*

*She can't help but think of what seems to be her lusus - A medium-sized cat with two smiling mouths*

*Forcing the memory down, she watches with some regret as the image fades*

Nepeta: :33 < Pounce de Leon...You were pawsitively the best kitty efur. *Sniffs dangerously, transparent, forest green shimmering in the corners of her eyes*

*Rubbing the celadon tears away before they can fall, she forces herself to be strong*

Nepeta: :33 < Can't cry. Equius would be so worried fur me, and I don't want to s33 him fret anymore than he already does...Right. Right. Not gonna cry. It's all in the past. All in the past.

*Eventually, her calming breaths do manage to prevent any further crying from starting*

*Hurriedly accessing her computer-device, Nepeta begins to look for someone to talk to*

Nepeta: :33 < Ah! Purrfect! I never get to RP with him!

[ ???, Equius's Workshop: ]

Equius: *Stands a ways behind Tavros*

*He watches as the younger "lowblood" continues to RP with Nepeta*

Equius: ... *Makes an odd, undignified noise in throat*

*When he notices, relieved, that Tavros didn't hear, he strolls away*

Equius: *Idly picks up tools and begins to work*

*He's not really sure what he plans to do*

[ Datrio, Cove, Pier: ]

Gamzee: *Has long since finished the sandwiches*

*As Heen lays on his back, squeaking and wiggling frenetically, Gamzee pats his stomach*

Gamzee: lItTlE MaN, yOu'rE LiKe...aLl uP iN BeIn' A LiTtLe mIrAcLe. I LiKe yOu. *Smiles, not a zoned-out kind of smile, but a content, compassionate smile*

*He idly looks up as a huge shape begins to rise out of the water*

Gamzee: ...GeT BeHiNd mE, lItTlE MaN. *Scoots Heen away with the back of hand*

*Eyes clearing up briefly, he takes out a simple joker card - Solid black, with with an indigo, cartoonish harlequin face on the front and little objects depicted in the corners; from upper-left clockwise, a hammer, a sword, a four-point star, and a simple ring*

*The huge, serpentine shape reveals a visage of crocodillian jaws, five oddly-placed, bulging eyes, fangs poking out of its dessicated lips, and a long mane of drenched hair*

Nightmare?: I see it is my fortune to meet the idiotic little stoner of the group. Tell me, could you bring out those foolish little clubs? I'd like you to put up a fight before I slay you.

*He notices the card in Gamzee's hand, chuckles, then flicks one eye to Heen*

Heen: *Cowering behind Gamzee, squeaks pitifully and tries to tug on his pantleg and get him to run*

Nightmare: Well then, I think I know what will get you to fight. *Lunges for Heen*

*With a screech, he flails back to find his nose dented and his front teeth busted out - Ochre blood spraying all over Gamzee*

Gamzee: ... *Now holds a massive battle hammer in hand, topped by a warped carving of a ghost's face and with a rippling, ghostly white armor, periodically opening and closing eyes that consist of black voids with glowing green orbs within*

Nightmare: Impossible!! That's the Bogeyman Sledge!! It was lost when - !!

Gamzee: sHuT Up.

Nightmare: WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME, YOU - !?

Gamzee: I SaId sHuT ThE MoThErF### uP YoU NoN-BeLoNgInG MoThErF###Er. YoU Do nOt hAvE AnY RiGhT To cOmE AlL Up iN HeRe aNd sTrIkE OuT At mY PaLs.

Nightmare: CAN YOU EVEN CONCEIVE OF MY MAJESTY!? I AM MY LORD'S MOST -

Gamzee: CaN YoU EvEn cOnCeIvE Of wHaT I JuSt sAiD To yOu, MoThErF###Er? I'Ll rEpEaT It sLoWlY, sInCe yOu sEeM To bE Of sUcH StUpIdItY ThAt yOu cAnNoT UnDeRsTaNd wOrDs sEnT AlL Up iNtO YoUr wHiSpEr cAvItIeS.

*Raising his hammer up, he causes it to extend and grow until it roughly matches the Nightmare in mass*

*However, he is easily able to hold the monstrous weapon with one hand*

Gamzee: sHuT. tHe mOtHeRf###. uP.

Nightmare: *Attempts to lunge again, still bleeding profusely*

Gamzee: *Expression remains unchanging as the hammer begins to drop* hOnK.

Heen: *Unlike before, eyes narrow and gain a soft glow*

*For a dog, his eyes are almost analytical*

[ Cove, Shack: ]

Master Big Star: ... *Inclines head to one side* ...This may seem random, but what can you tell me of Gamzee Makara?

*He artfully keeps his thoughts hidden, but this does not stop the knowing and evermore disturbing grin on Feferi's face to grow into a condescending smirk*

Feferi: )(-E-E)(---E---E! Looks like you've gotten finally wit)( t)(e glubbin' program about Gamzee, )(U)(? Did it take t)(at walloping outside just now to realize somefin's NOT QUIT---E T)(-E SAM-E WIT)( )(IM? *Shakes head oddly*

Master Big Star: *No longer afraid of such behavior, levels a cold glare on Feferi* ...Care to indulge me with your wisdom? My mission is to research the previous Sessions that lead to Jack Noir's entrance. I get a feeling that Makara is not the only one hiding a more deadly side, as well. Would that be correct? Or should I wait for you to consult the Horrorterrors, or perhaps Gl'bgolyb's Shadow?

Feferi: *Grin falls into a frown, as she wipes a cold sweat off forehead Sorry. T)(e grimdarkness )(as never appreciated Great Beings, especially not in my Session. It wasn't until Jack Noir went ballistic t)(at t)(ey began to w)(isper directly to me w)(ile I was awake. If I don't let t)(em say t)(eir piece in little glubs of anger like t)(at, t)(ey begin to tell me more violent t)(ings to do.

Feferi: ANYWAYS. You want to know about Gamzee. Well, )(e's better t)(an w)(en )(e did an epic pirouette flip off the deep-end a w)(ile back. Now, )(e's become even better at supressing )(is indigoblood impulses t)(an I am at fending off the grimdarkness. T)(at, quite frankly, does not put me at ease, glub glub. )(e's reely dangerous, even wit)( just t)(e clubs.

Master Big Star: *Eyes narrow* Just the clubs? I thought he was a juggling clubs specialist. The Clubs Deuce didn't have to be upgraded once in the course of the game, am I correct? *Finally turns to look out window, towards the pier*

*He can vaguely see the silouhette of a massive hammer battering a spasming, serpentine shape*

Master: ...I see. I suppose that it's only reasonable he would have other weapons, or perhaps find a more fitting type of instrument for his fighting style. Tell me, is that a size-changing hammer?

Feferi: It is, but first appearances can be deceiving, I'm s)(ore I don't )(ave to tell you, glub glub. Somehow, he found the Joker Array during )(is...Episode, and began using it against enemies that are more dangerous than usual. That would have been useful against the Black King, but Gamzee didn't let us down then, either.

Master Big Star: ... *Turns to look at her curiously* ...How do you mean?

Feferi: W)(AL---E, it's a bit )(ard to explain. We were all fig)(ting the Black King, and barely making a dent. Gamzee )(adn't been doing anyt)(ing AT ALL to )(elp, until the Black King broke Karkat's arm and leg, and I guess t)(at made somefin snap.

Feferi: I was busy )(ealing Karkat, I'm the Witc)( of Life, it was kinda my t)(ing, but we all looked up just in time to see t)(e results of w)(at Gamzee )(ad done. T)(e Black King almost fell flat on )(is @$$, and almost )(alf of )(is )(P was just c)(ipped rig)(t off. We were all almost too s)(ocked to keep fig)(ting, I t)(ink even t)(e Black King couldn't believe w)(at )(ad just )(appened or )(ow exactly Gamzee did it, but t)(en Gamzee just cracked open a Faygo and slouc)(ed off again.

Feferi: Vriska was t)(e only one of us w)(o could )(ave possibly done more damage. We'll never know for s)(ore, because s)(e was t)(e one to land t)(e finis)(er, and t)(e Black King was just low enoug)( t)(at none of us could make up our minds on w)(ic)( did more damage. W)(en we asked, Gamzee )(ad no idea )(ow )(e'd done it eit)(er and just wandered off soon after, but I know t)(at if it )(adn't been for )(im, we'd never )(ave netted that victory!

*Once she's done, Feferi scampers over and leans against the window sill to watch the battle with abject glee*

*By now, the Nightmare's silhouette visibly leaks blood, and he's clearly in his death throes*

*As the hammer falls one last time, a faint sound floats over to the shack*

hOnK.

Master Big Star: ...I'm terrified to ask...But what was Makara's game title again?

Feferi: )(ee)(ee. T)(e Bard of Rage!

Master Big Star: ... *Stomach sinks* ...
