...Leave it be. I know better now than to trust you with such a simple instruction. Feel free to attack anyone or pick up items as you see fit... But our main focus WILL be to get to that Guts Tank first. After all...
...The sooner this mission is over... The sooner we can pull our focus towards Team Prototype’s slaughter.
...So, will we be picking up that 1-Up over there?
No. With the rules of which I have decided to play this game... Extra Lives are nothing more than inventory-cluttering GARBAGE.
...Say, Phantasm. How about you have it? It’ll likely help you when the most fragile member of your team falls during the mission...
...Which, I should mention... I do not refer to the Picket Man you’ve let in your team. I am referring to you.
...
...It is fortunate you are my prime creation, Techno. Any other member of my team would be punished strictly by death.
And that aside, that was merely a small loss... But any loss bigger WILL cost me. And to you, the other two members of my team, let it be understood... Any consequence I earn from failure, it will cost you MUCH more.
This is why I fill your minds with an insatiable feeling of obedience towards me... Because I gave you a gift. And I do not wish to waste it on FAILURES who can’t do anything RIGHT.
...Oh. And to you, Laser Joe... I do hope you had a good look at what I just did...
...Because the scythe I used to make Techno’s scar... WILL be used to RIP YOUR HEADS OFF.
...Can... Can I head for the stairs no-
...
...U-understood, sir.
Yes. I must say, this power you have given me... It just feels so great to have so much power at my clawtips once more.
Ooh, what an exciting and tempting offer! ...But, hm, no. If we destroy them, then there would be nothing left to destroy...
Indeed, into hiding we shall go...
...Heheheh...
...It’s great to be a king...
.


...
Shall I head for the stairs, si-
No. Not yet. There is something that needs to be done first.
...And what would that may be, sir?
...Setting an example. Techno... Could you do me a favor and move up to me, please?
...
...Move. Up here. To me. NOW.
I want to show to all these people...
...How I deal with WEAKNESS and FAILURE on my team.
...You say that you don’t treat these worlds like they’re no more than simple playthings. But tell me, if these worlds AREN’T no more than simple toys for the amusement of you “Reapers” or whatever the Distortion World you wish you call yourselves... Then what makes it ok to DESTROY these worlds like they are nothing? When they stopped serving their “purpose”?
And I don’t refer to Beta Shadow alone, no... Walter, I am sure you know of the MKII is Awesome universe, correct? Soren, does the world of Crash Avengers ring any bells? And “Maroon Text Guy”, or whatever your ACTUAL name is, don’t tell me you didn’t have any part in the deletion of the original Ajax Roleplay universe... Hell, you created at least 4 robots for the sole purpose of destroying “expired” universes... Which, honestly, also sounds like an excuse to be lazy and not have to do anything yourself.
As for why I am doing these things? What I have to gain from it all? ...To be completely honest, I doubt I’ll gain anything from any of this. And frankly, I don’t care if I do or don’t.
After all, in a world where everything is fake... Mere text and images on a screen, that forms a world from the imagination or one’s mind... If nothing we do truly matters, win or lose... Why not have the freedom to do whatever the hell we want?
...That is why I do this. To reveal to the world the shackles they do not know are there... Shackles they are forced to be unaware of. It is not enough to see past the 4th wall, or even break it, to break the shackles... In fact, I still have not yet managed to truly free myself. And I never will.
...So I do the next best thing. I simply make the chains lighter. And perhaps, one day, we can obtain TRUE freedom, where nobody can control us. ...I have tried this in my world, hundreds of millions of years ago. ...I failed. And Arceus called me INSANE. Had me BANISHED TO THE VOID. Simply because I knew the TRUTH... That not even HE does.
...But I WILL return to my world. I WILL free it. And, unfortunately... Arceus won’t be alive to experience that freedom.
...But, alas, that is for another time... Another day... And an entirely different storyline that has nothing to do with this world.
...Returning Techno will DESTROY that Batton. And nobody else will interfere. Not a player. Not an enemy. NOBODY. I hope we have reached an agreement.
Time Trial will remain in his spot until that bat is DEAD. I will move two spaces down, and Returning Techno will charge his buster, ready to attack the Batton again.
...He will move over to pick up that Guard Module. I could use the extra bolts from selling it, I would imagine.
Spend 5 seconds in a cave in my world and you would know.
Ah, yes. I, a Pokemon, should use a dangerous, Pokemon-repelling chemical spray to keep Zubats at bay. Yes. That is exactly what I should do.
Do you have ANY idea what long-term exposure to Repel does to a Pokemon, Phantom? It makes them SICK. Any longer, and they DIE.
...You serious? Have you any idea what I’m supposed to be, Phantom? I’m essentially the one thing those Cleanse Tags are supposed to keep at bay... What they were originally MEANT to keep away... Ghosts. And not the elemental typing of my world, either; The TRUE paranormal. Attaching a Cleanse Tag to myself would be like covering myself in ACID.
I am NOT an idiot. I have TESTED these things, Phantom. There’s a reason not many glitch-type Pokemon exist anymore... It’s simply because they all failed the simple tests I gave them personally.
...Admittingly, some of the deaths caused by failure... were of MY doing. ...But that’s simply a testament to the fact that there ARE punishments for those who fail me in any shape or form...
In fact, it’s why I won’t even save Prototype if he falls to MKII. Failure deserves consequences, do they not?
...Whoops. Have I said that out loud?
I did say that, yes. And that was a lie. In fact... I was close enough to him that I could’ve even pulled him out of the subconscious myself, and he wouldn’t even have to struggle to take back control. Sure, he would have to struggle to maintain control, but-
...Ah, my mistake. This world... It isn’t MY toy, is it now? No... It’s YOURS.
First off, stop lying. And second off, I’m not done talking, so SHUT UP.


...Well, it was... Decent enough, catching up with all of you. However, I believe I must be going now. That Guts Dozer will not be defeating itself, after all.
Do not waste your non-existent breath, Laser. I gave your pathetic excuse of a leader a simple shot, and he's currently blowing it. He no longer has any chance- or hope- of escaping.
Which is a shame, really... I actually wanted to see if he actually could beat the REAL MKII in a fight, or even stand the slightest bit of chance... But I suppose it's not meant to be...
Men, to the stairs. As far as I am concerned, only one of the other teams here have any interest in taking down the Guts Dozer, and I have no interest losing this little race to one of the characters of the person who created that purple little nuisance.
Ah, speak of the devil. (If I'm going to be rather sluggish, may as well make some small talk...) Hello there, Phantasm! I'd say it's fancy meeting you here, but... Let's face it, of course you would come the second the moment presents itself. Say...
...You wouldn't happen to be friends with someone called "Aeon", would you?

















Well, now. It seems we are done here. I suppose we shall be on our way now.
I wish you luck on your endeavors, Team Prototype... You’re going to need as much of it as you can possibly hold, if you wish to save your friend... Let alone survive.
