During all of this, the meteroid from earlier gets close enough to the planet for the inhabitants to see it and hear it. It seems to be yelling all sorts of cowboy slang.

The Metalls were absorbed in the black hole. Before the Sniper Joe itself was absorbed, it gave its location to the reinforcements.

Seeing the chaos unfolding, the Captain calls for reinforcements. Meanwhile, the remaining Metalls attempt to trap Salty.exe in a force field made up of...seemly indestructible hardhats.

The hardhats of the Space Metalls protect them from the sandstorm. One of them serves as a protective and questionably fashionable hat for the Captain Sniper Joe. Said Captain Sniper Joe spots both the ancient Norez and Alternative Aeon. With one wave of its blade the Metalls have found their new target...

The meteoroid that was stuck to Salty's Super Arm feels ignored and warps off. It flys out to space until it stumbles upon a cowboy hat. Right then and there that meteoroid, who just so happened to name himself Billy, suddenly had gained a new purpose in life; to "Beef" the planet down below and all its inhabiants.

Seeing the corpse of Heat Man enrages the Sniper Joe, which in turn enrages the Space Metall army. However, before anything could be done, a small portion of the Metalls were wiped out by the beams of light created by Galeem.



(Beef is kill in cowboy talk).

Unknown to The Letter L, an army of Space Metalls are fast approaching, angry for him taking 3 robot masters. Leading the charge is what appears to be a purple Sniper Joe, albeit in...Roman centurion armor?

The meteor, however, has other plans. It sticks to Salty.exe's arm.

A meteoroid the size of New Kansas appears as if from thin air. It slowly but steadily approaches Salty.exe.

The crown was destroyed by the meteor with pieces of gold and ancient technology floating outwards to the unknown reaches of space.
The purple smoke successfully hacks into GRAND NOVA's memories and proceeds to start stealing said memories.

The rain misses the crown, somehow... The crown levitates to the figure's head without landing on it, almost like its either magnetized or has sentience.

The smoke mentioned a couple posts ago attempts to somehow hack into GRAND NOVA's memory banks...

The crown has a note attached to it. It read the following: WEAR ME.

Meanwhile, the purple smoke mentioned a couple pages ago FINALLY arrives at its destination: GRAND NOVA's memory banks.

A crown floats past The Figure.

(Salty.exe)I'm not attempting to be the narrator. I'm just tackling parts of the roleplay(ie phone) that I made from a 3rd person perspective.

The phone goes silent.

Alternative Aeon hears a mysterious whisper on the other end.

"I heard you wanted...information about...Access Ark.

A phone mysteriously rings from Alternate Aeon's pocket...

"To be fair, I assumed you came from another universe because y-"
Suddenly, the Sniper Joe was gone, with a puddle of oil replacing it. A distortion in time can be felt, if only for a second...

At the center of a city named Paradise lies a tower. Within that tower we find a figure watching over the city he built, or rather...his machines built. With a crooked smile, he awaits the daily reports and the arrival of a particular machine. But who is this figure? Well, he is known by many names; King, Tyrant, Savior, Doctor. But the one name that all people have called him for the last 20 years is...Emperor Wily.

The sniper joe shows a question mark logo where its eye is.
"Ancients? Super Gears? OCs? Sorry, but you might be mistaken about this place. You see, we built this place as a hiding place against Wily."
"...Say, now that I think about it, you said that you came from a different universe? If that's true and you're not pulling my leg, then maybe in that universe it was a shrine created by...Ancients you say?"

"As for what's going here...Emperor Wily found us. He sent some troops in to destroy us so that the scraping crew could come in here and obtain our parts."

The Sniper Joe is confused by the recent events and proceeds to ask how the group found the supposed secret sanctuary. Though, the Sniper Joe then remarks that it supposes that it's not so secret with Wily discovering the robot sanctuary...
