Why you little-! The reason this guy didn't answer you is probably because he was IGNORING you! Besides, I'm kind of in the middle of conquering this town, and he's metaphorically standing in my way.
And apparently you want to reinforce his metaphorical barricade, only unlike him, you ACTUALLY pose a threat to me. Therefore, you just made yourself a high-priority target, kid!
Hey what the hell, I wasn't done forcibly recycling that thing!
Sir, I think it is time for you and your friends to-
Now, now. Let's not be hasty about this.
...Now, I must ask you, Mr. Mephisto. What led you to think of such an idea?
Well, our group has been on a little trip to the very world you've been recording for your little "show" and actually met the people you've been recording... Including one of your little employees, whose terrible lying led us to believe that you've been up to something.
...Though, really, it would've been enough to warrant this meeting to see just what sort of game your up to...
from simply knowing you've brought your company BACK after your little "Tournament incident"*.
...
...Oh! Now I understand! This has all just been a big misunderstanding!
...You think of us as the same company as Gemini TV.
But you literally are-
Gemini TV was a greedy television network that only ever cared about the fame, rather than WHY people watch. Gemini Entertainment is a multimedia enterprise centered on nothing more than bringing the joys of entertainment around the world.
That is total bull
.
I told you that I'D be doing all the talking.
Screw what YOU told me to do, I'm speaking my mind.



ah...saias, finally, I can be rid of you aswell!
Get off me you foul cretin! I'll crush you like a b-

...All this talk about how your company is so different... Maybe you'd even go far as to say it's a new beginning for you. A new leaf. But that's all just what you want the PUBLIC to think, when the truth is... You've never changed at all.
..."The truth," you say.
...Tell me, Gamma. Is it the truth that Beta Devil is dead? Is it the truth that the people who have threatened the public in the past- Surge Man, Duracell, Zalgo- just "disappeared"?
Is it the truth that the world's beloved "President Walter" is dead?
...One thing you failed to realize, Gamma... Is that "the truth" is what the Government or the Media tells the world is true. Any word of this that the likes of you could POSSIBLY spread out will only be thought to be rumors.
The public is blind, Gamma. They get their information from sources that they trust. Sources like the newscasts that are owned by people like me.
...
...I told you not to visit me during work hours.
Oh, come on. When would I ever be able to visit you instead of on work hours when you're always working?
...Then maybe you shouldn't visit me at all.
Oh, come on, Sarge. Just because you're the "big bad" commanding officer of the Allegrotropolis Security Force...
...doesn't mean you have no time to speak with your own brother.
At the end of the day, who are they going to believe? A famous superstar that owns several multimedia sources for news, sports, and other information...
...or a bunch of lowlives nobody ever heard about, whose only ambitions in life is to prove themselves better than some other group of unaffiliated heroes?
...
If this is the way things are going to be, then fine. Do whatever the hell you want. But on the behalf of our group, Beta Team, and EVERYONE ELSE who is associated with us...
...You are to NOT to use our likeness from ANY footage you may have caught of our spar with the TTC Raiders, or ANY other project you make in the future... Or we'll make sure you regret it.
...So, what now, sir?
...First, pause all production of Beta Team & Associates merchandise until further notice. I want an art design team assembled to create designs for a replacement team, and I want you to assemble our best CGI artists and voice actors.
Are you sure? This'll cut back progression on the season they appear on... Didn't you just tell them they couldn't do anything to you?
...Unlike the public, I have the advantage of knowing what people like him are capable of... I can't afford to take chances with them.
Shadow Man R(too lazy to make a custom mugshot)
...If this was ever about what I want, I would never even BE here to begin with. But I have been given no choice in the matter... So it's best if you just do what needs to be done.
Hey, Scourge! You have to be a real coward if you're relying so much on overpowering us than actually putting up a fair fight!
...I'm no coward.
Oh, really? Then why did you need a Super Form just to beat me?
HAH! I don't need this form to defeat the likes of you! Besides, you're one to talk about "unfair advantages", considering that YOU apparently need your little friends to defeat ME.
I didn't need friends to kick your butt when you were in your base form; They only jumped in because you were the one who cheated first, because you were scared that you were going to lose.
I WASN'T GOING TO LOSE! I only transformed because you were taking too long to admit defeat, and I was getting BORED!
Yeah, right. I've said it before, Scourge; I've beaten MANY lookalikes in the past, several times over, and you were never ANY different. You just can't admit that, if the fight were to have gone on any longer, I would have won. You're too afraid to LOSE.
I am NOT afraid of you.
...Prove it.
Heheheheheheh...
And what's so funny, Scourge?
It's just humorous. I would just love to revert to my base form and prove you wrong. But there's just ONE small problem.
Oh? And what would that be?
...The fact that I'm not going to fall for the same trick TWICE.*
Sonic!
Well, this is definitely a pretty odd place.
In fact, I think I may have seen a parallel timeline or two just now.
There's still a question that needs answering, though...
WHERE THE CRAP IS THAT MOSQUITO I TRIED TO ASSIMILATE!?
You foul beast! I'll obliterate you in an instant!
Nice place you found, Re. Never thought a smaller spot like this would be out in the big city.
Dark Elf told me about it, actually. Apparently she and Lulu came over once and she liked it, I was hungry one day ahd she told me about it...
How're you two doing? Can I get you a refill for your drink?
Uhh, I'm good. You?
Oh, sure! Lemonade.
I'll get you a glass right away!
Actually, Schmitt, there was something I wanted to ask about while we were here.
Hit me with it.
I thought I saw someone yesterday who looked like they used to work with one of those people who disappeared. I dunno what that's like for 'em, do you-
...wait, whatddaya mean "disappeared"?
I read something on some news from a couple years ago, that some guy named "Zal-
...what?
Re, it's complicated. If you wanna talk about it, we gotta save it for after lunch. Somewhere else.
Huh?! Why're you...?!
Wait...are you one of-
*cough* Rgh...
Y-you wanna play rough?!
《Kirby!》 *huff* 《Boy, am I glad to see you!》
《I got pulled through that vortex over Planet Pop Star too.》
Uh...i-if you're busy, I'll leave you to...what you're doing. I think some of the Waddle Dees left need some help.
...do you know who that is?
