Insanity Man stares curiously at Magician Man after his statement.

"Hmm...I guess you guys can stay with me for a while.... Just don't slow me down yet. So, should we go inside or are we going to stand here for a while? I mean, think of all the stuff this place has! Food, golden halls, parties, even fights! I don't want to wait anymore!"

Print Man spoke up. "Well, we ought to have some sort of plan. Who knows what this King fellow has in store for us? He did mention something about other robots, but other than that..."

"Considering we have wasted time on this quite literally insane robot's nap, I say we enter now." grumbled Gamble Man.

"I see what everyone's saying here. While we have wasted plenty of time with all the introductions, we should have a plan. I think I have a idea of one, but it's still coming to me. Maybe if I apply this...." said Insanity Man, with a larger smirk than usual.

Insanity Man sprinted across the courtyard in an amazing act of speed, leaving the others behind. As he entered the gardens, a trumpet once again sounded with more of an alarm-like noise, and a voice was heard, more noble than the stout black robot, but not quite as knightly as one would expect.

"It appears the time is now! The King's Gambit Challenge....Has finally been officially started!"

"True, true." conceded Print Man. "But was it not Pope who said 'Fools rush in where angels fear to tread'?"

Mage Man kept wondering who might show up... or what. As all people walk in, he follows behind.

"T-that wasn't what I meant by a plan!" exclaimed Print Man as he and the rest of the party chased after Insanity Man. The massive doors slammed shut behind them, knocking Print Man on his face.

True to the gatekeeper's words, as soon as Insanity-Man stepped into the courtyard, he noticed a figure, meandering about and tending to the plants. He was nearly identical to the gatekeeper, but he was a bit taller, and clad in white; unlike the gatekeeper, who seemed a bit sickly, this one seemed far more ready for action.

He meandered about with his watering can, initially not even noticing that his foes had arrived, but when more of them walked in and they continued their not-unheated discussion, he dropped it and turned to face them. "Hello," he said, rather flatly. "Here for the fighting, I presume?" He seemed rather nonchalant about the whole thing. "Well, I didn't want to be in this gauntlet, I'm not much of a fighter, but what King says is best must be, so..." he got into a fighting stance, but only with balled fists—he did not seem to have any weapons to speak of. "I am the first of the King's Men. I am known as Pawn. I assure you, this will be easy for you. Let the battle begin."

Stepping forward, Pawn rushed Insanity-Man, fist aimed to punch him squarely...but that was not his intention. Instead, as he neared, he leaped into the air, sailing through it with deft speed, and aimed to plant his feet firmly on the head of Print-Man.

Mage Man waited for an opening... the moment he was away from Print Man, he was to use Mage Fireball to defeat Pawn.

As soon as Pawn leaped through the air, Insanity Man took notice of his being ignored....Something he did not take lightly.

"Aw yeah! Now this is what I'm talking about, the whole reason I joined! Now, I'll prep my good old shell to block his little hop, then we party!"

However, Pawn continues to fly over his head and seems to be aiming for one of the members of the group....

"What?! You were supposed to aim for my face, not the other guys! Great, I'll be ignored....again, like always. Then again, Pawnster can take out the squeaks, then we'll light up the whole night! Hahahaha! Hehehe! I'm so happy, why else live then for battle?!"

Pawn closes in on the group, and seems to be aiming for Print Man....

"Oh, aim for Mr. Comic Relief, eh? Hey, at least we'll get some laughs out of em! Wait, I bet he laughs when he screams!"

As Pawn seems to close in for the kill, Insanity Man has a change of look....One of sudden concern.

"(Maybe I should roll in and help him, right? No! Stupid! Stupid! I don't want to do it!)"

Insanity Man bangs his head with a heated anger, and then calms down.

"(Whatever....I can tell Mage Man has got him protected anyway...I think. Really, who can trust anyone around here? We're all competing for a goal, and this alliance is only temporary, then it turns into who wants it most. The question is though, can I trust them? In the past, trust has given me pain. Can they trust me? And can I trust myself?)"

"(What am I thinking? This is so out of character for me....Well, I'll just wait to see what happens. Wait, how is all my thinking the same speed as all this?)"

And Insanity Man continues to watch, to see how it ends for his teammate.....Unless somehow he survives.....

---

Unless you can't tell, Insanity Man also has the weapon of fourth-wall breaking.

Mage Man seems annoyed by the tactics of Pawn. Gah! If he doesn't stop jumping on Print Man, then I'd end up burning him! I gotta keep him away from Print Man... He waits. Pawn jumps off of Print Man, but before jumping again, Mage Man uses Mage Reverse on him, making him go the other way, practically towards Insanity Man.

As the Pawm is reversed and dashes towards Insanity Man, Gamble Man summons countdown bombs on the Pawn, trapping him as the timers countdown. 3. 2. 1. At the last second the Pawn managed to shove one of the timed bombs out of the way and manages to run for a few feet, only to get launched from the explosion and impact a wall with loud thump. Better than being encased in exploding bombs, Gamble Man suppo-wait. Is that Pawn getting back up?!?
