I'M SARK, YOU IDIOT!
OH
! SARK'S HERE! HOW'D HE ESCAPE I.M. MEEN'S BOOK?!
It seems like situations really can take care of themselves.
Now, where were we?
!... N-no way!!
How the hell is this possible? We saw that fortress explode with our own eyes!
I-.. I don't know how this is possible! We're just as lost as to what happened as you are!
So... what do we do now?
Now.... We find answers. All six of us.
C'mon, C'mon, it's gotta be around here somewhere!
Wario. It's time you give up on that nonsense of yours and quit snooping around as usual. I see that you're just as hungry for gold as ever, so I have a special mission for you. Report to the Dark Fortress for more.
....Lo--
Ah. So my contingency worked as planned. Though I have to say, I'm a tad disappointed.... Not in myself, no, but for how easily people managed to underlook myself. I am business first. I don't make mistakes. I make investments. It seems that barrier was damaged as well. Oh, well. In any case...
...It's good to be back.
...dude, anyone else feel someone who's a mondo deal just came back?
Ah, I wouldn't worry about it, boss.
Oh boy, oh boy!
Wait, you counted three when Daiyousei and C.X. entered while I was next to Daiyousei...am I a contestant?
...how are we going to start a 10-person tournament with 8 playable characters?
I see.
Ah. Well, if it isn't my two servants and their new friends. It's truly been a while, hasn't it?
....
Yeah. I'm gonna do us all a favor and ask. How. The
. Are you still alive?
You read my mind. You heard 'em, shady. Start 'fessing.
It's quite simple, really.
I am more than certain you two know what this is, right?
A World Ring!? I-impossible! The seven of them were taken in by Regulus!
Correct. You see, this is a prototype of the World Rings, one of the many scattered across the Omniverse by El Grande Padre, who made an attempt at creating it, but failed due to lacking the perfect balance of positivity and negativity the seven were made in mind with. This... Is the Ring of Greed.
(....What does this have to due with your return?)
Contrary to what one may think, due to me being a fusion, before I was made of three distinct personalities. One craving destruction, one craving domination, and one with confusion.
I am positive you are aware of which one is destruction. The monster who destroyed your {Rock's} World. The one of confusion, who sealed him off. But what about the one of domination?
Though Regulus (+ Clones) and Delta separated, both of their wills fused to create a new one in the process. One who desired to dominate the different stars, dimensions and realities altogether.
As you may have inferred, this Ring actually sensed this desire, and not only carried on my will, which was to survive, but restored my fortress as well.
Any questions?
You flicked me into the exosphere.
Apologies, "Anthem", but I do not see why your weakness is my problem.
This is where your heartless empire ends. Excluding your guards, there's only one of you.
But that is where I must rebuke you, Anthem. For where you see one man, I see four.
"see four"? what the hell do you--
Look down.
Ohhhh. That makes sense.
Combining the strongest alloys from dimension to dimension, creating what I dub "Hadium". We hope you enjoyed your stay at Quartet Enterprises.
Ahhhh. You truly never realize the true things in life which matter to you until they are gone.
I'll say.
...SCOUTING CONCLUDED. END RESULTS: NOTHING OF INTEREST FOUND. RETURNING TO DEATH EGG.
...ERROR. DEATH EGG NOT FOUND. POSSIBLE REASON: DEATH EGG WAS DESTROYED DURING ABSENCE.
...What a sad creature. I actually forgot that he existed.
ATTEMPTING TO CONTACT MASTER ROBOTNIK... ERROR. ALL COMMUNICATIONS TO ROBOTNIK HAS BEEN CUT OFF.
ATTEMPTING TO CONTACT MASTER WILY... ERROR. ALL COMMUNICATIONS TO WILY HAS BEEN CUT OFF.
It appears his creators have abandoned him... He seems to have become without purpose without them.
SEARCHING FOR LOCATION OF MASTERS...
...MASTERS HAVE BEEN LOCATED IN TWO SEPARATE LOCATIONS. POSSIBLE REASON: ALLIANCE BETWEEN MASTERS WILY AND ROBOTNIK HAS ENDED.
It's like looking at a lost dog... just downright pitiful.
THE DIVIDED MASTERS WOULD LIKELY ATTEMPT TO CONVINCE ME TO GO AGAINST THE OTHER SIDE... BUT I HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED TO FOLLOW BOTH MASTERS' COMMANDS. THIS CONVEYS A PROBLEM.
...
...I'm going to have to take him under my wing, aren't I? *Sigh*, very well...
...Alright, you irrelevant piece of garbage... You're coming with me.
So. How about we get back to business?
....I'll need some time to think about this. You weren't the one behind everything. Regulus was. And he's got a power that no one else can begin to comprehend, so it may not matter if I do or don't.
I understand. You go around doing... Well, you guys aren't really the most relevant in terms of action in this roleplay... whatever it is you two wish to do. Until then, you know where to go.
Righteo. C'mon, dude. Let's get out of here.Are you still in Duo Form?
I'm trying to push my limits.
.....
Apologies for the wait. What were you saying about this "Psycho Power", Mr. Bison?
