Mega Man X-7 | Level: 1 (0/50)
No need to be so unnecessarily descriptive of an attack that won’t work. Batton Shell is still active, you red idiot, your attack did nothing. You wasted your weapon energy AND a buster charge. Next time, learn to pay atten-
...
...As I was saying. Do not make such idiotic mistakes. Be weary of your surroundings... The conditions of your enemies... What your enemies are doing... What they can do.
...Allow me to provide an example.
...THAT. Could be any member of your worthless little team. So I’d think twice about getting in my way again. ESPECIALLY when it results in attacking my team directly.
...I already lost interest in killing you outright. I already plan on destroying your little leader. In fact, I’m close enough to him that I could force him into a wrong turn, to wander through his mind forever. Do not make the torture I intend on putting you through any worse than it is already going to be. Because frankly, I have far better things to be doing than to waste time torturing worthless piles of garbage.
...Like some upgrades, for Techno. I need to change his Bane to something that isn’t attack, so that he’s not so useless. Or, perhaps a radar, to more easily find some P-Chips. ...Perhaps I need some modifications myself, for this suit? I have some ideas in mind...
...Like, say, the Levitate ability. I could think of a few good uses for it. Or, perhaps I should steal one of the Bootcamp’s Item Nullifiers and implant it into my suit? ...Or, what about some kind of technology that prevents me from being captured even by a Master Ball... Not even 15 of them.
...Huh. How odd... You seem a bit uneasy, Phantasm... How about a tip? Do not share your plans with Beta Shadow, even in private. Because I WILL see them. I am not a naive idiot like the other 4th Wall Breakers. I actually pay attention to these things.
...And now I know you are plotting against me. Wonderful. I hope you enjoy your battle with MKII after this. Because if he doesn’t ensure you won’t survive it, then I will.
That reminds me, MKII. Don’t bother corrupting Phantasm. As a “Pseudoreaper”, he is immune to the virus. You’re better off killing him outright, so that he can’t even try to save Prototype.


...Tch. Don’t pretend there is no truth to what I have said. Your team has been through failure after failure. Don’t think for a SECOND your master would accept that in any shape or form. We both know what Wily is truly like.
...Much like how we BOTH know that, even with this “strategy” of yours, you won’t last. ...Much like how he knows that, as well.
”I won’t even save Prototype if he falls to MKII. Failure deserves consequences, do they not?”
”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.”
...Don’t you get it? He never believed you were going to escape. He wanted to see if you could even stand to the REAL MKII. He doesn’t even think you’d be able to WIN. This “escape attempt” of yours? A mere science experiment. He’s USING you.
In fact, you didn’t even have to go through all of this to escape. If he truly wanted to save you, he would’ve just left you alone... And let the “higher-ups” do THEIR plans to save you. ...But not only is he toying with you? ...He has put you at risk of never waking up again. And even if you manage to win somehow...
... “I am starting to consider making sure that your little “Commander” of yours that he’s currently controlling will, if he even manages to escape, wake up not in a body... But a CORPSE.”
...You weren’t sent here to be saved. You were sent here to die. And it’s all because of your own naiveté. ...It’s how you got corrupted in the first place, was it not?
To the stairs, Time Trial. We wasted enough time here.
...WAS THAT CORRUPTED TENTACLE!? Also, I KNEW I shoulda 4th-wall-proofed that message!
Welp, guess I'm coming up with ANOTHER plan, one that DOESN'T involve a Mega Pidgeot, a Dugtrio, a Lanturn, a Scrafty, a Shedinja, OR a super-special Unown.
...You know, it's interesting that most of the 'mons I mentioned just now are from the Game Boy/Game Boy Color era.
Ugh, why'd I have to leave Shark Man behind!? I swear, if I don't obtain someone faster than Fake MKII soon, I'm going to tear the Cockroach Twins two new ventilation shafts!
Anyway. Guys. Stairs. NOW.
Ugh, there's nothing to do around here. It's like we're SUPPOSED to just swim in place whenever the leader is in a dungeon!
I know, right? It's like we're supposed to sit here and do nothing.
Plus, it's not like we can EXPLORE DUNGEONS without the guy.
Er, hold on, did you say something about dungeons?
Yeah, I said we can't explore dungeons without our leader.
...Although, to be fair, I never checked whether or not that was actually POSSIBLE. Maybe it WAS possible all along and we didn't stop to think about it?
I think it SHOULD be possible. I mean, I haven't seen anything that dictates otherwise.
Still, I'm gonna look into whether or not that's legal before we ACTUALLY try it. After all, I don't want to attempt to go on a mission only to hear that whole (mocking Fake Man) "STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM! NOBODY BREAKS THE LAW ON MY WATCH! I'M CONFISCATING YOUR STOLEN GOODS. NOW PAY YOUR FINE OR IT'S OFF TO JAIL!" speech from the boys in whatever costume color they bought from Rush.
Yeah. I wouldn't even be here if not for any lack of judgement I made along the way.
But so what? If we called it quits every time a challenge came our way, we wouldn't have gotten that far. And I don't intend on calling it giving up anytime soon.
Besides, whoever you are. If anything, it's a blessing in disguise I know how vile this guy's plan really is. Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.
......
After I go over my actions for my Turn, we're going to have a little talk about honesty.... "Walter".
Aside from "Maroon Text Guy", I haven't a name of my own... but seeing as you all value trivial identities at such a high regard, I suppose I will refer to myself as "Worship."
Ever since his return to the "MMRPG". You see, I am all the powers he held but did not use. In a sense, I was his untapped potential. Although the Walter you know best is comatose, floating through the remains of a deceased universe.
And as a result, your return is technically my doing, as well as the MKII Virus I bestowed upon you.
In short, the destruction of the Discord Universe. This world, like the last, was a mistake, an unfortunate awakening of events. It was simply not meant to exist.
This is in regards as to where you and Prototype come in. You were the one I sent to realize the futility of life, cause ruin throughout this fabricated land. And without punishment, no less.
Prototype is no more than a mere example for you to exact upon, to represent the fate of those who wander the realms of the universe. He is the representation of tragedy. Of Despair. Of Hopelessness. All the while I make my subtle return to the forums and make my presence gradually known and accepted.
But it appears I truly have underestimated you. In one fell swoop, you usurped my intentions. That Jazz fellow gave me quite the worry as well... but in the end, it did not work out in his favor.
Sadly, my elaborate plan has gone to waste. But I do not expect things to go any different... If you do what you are supposed to do, then things will not.
...Do not be mistaken. Correct me if I’m wrong, but Corrupted Tentacle comes from out of the user’s back, not from out of the ground. And even then, I wouldn’t be able to reach the Metall from over here with that attack... Not that this game’s system would allow it. ...I had to force THAT attack through the system enough as is. (At least it was a core type that is actually compatible with this game...)
...No. That was a summoned tentacle from an old, ancient creature that I believe you mortals know as “Lord Helix”. I have... certain ties. To ancient entities, if you could recall. These wings? Aerodactyl. That scythe? It was made from the skeletal arm of a Kabutops. I figured it would’ve been obvious where the tentacles come from. I guess not.
...Then again, of course you’d think it was something of your reaper’s creation, considering he’s so self-centered... Perhaps that is where you got your ego. ...Perhaps it’s where Rotom got his ego.
...Hm, actually, no. Not even his reaper is more of a selfish BRAT than that purple little freak.



”Keep your friends close and your enemies closer”, huh? ...Then I hope you know, you’ll need to move fast to keep that first part up.
“...Because the scythe I used to make Techno’s scar...WILL be used to RIP YOUR HEADS OFF.”
“...The sooner this mission is over... The sooner we can pull our focus towards Team Prototype’s slaughter.”
“For once again stealing MY team’s kill, you have furthered the pain and torment I will put you through before slaughtering your little team one by one. And you’ll be happy to know that, officially, you will die last.”
“...THAT. Could be any member of your worthless little team. So I’d think twice about getting in my way again. ESPECIALLY when it results in attacking my team directly.
“...I already lost interest in killing you outright. I already plan on destroying your little leader. In fact, I’m close enough to him that I could force him into a wrong turn, to wander through his mind forever. Do not make the torture I intend on putting you through any worse than it is already going to be.”
...You wish to return to your friends, correct? ...Then if I were you, I’d hurry things along... Because if you wait too long... You likely won’t have any friends to return to. ...He has no intent on killing them. But he has the intent to do a lot WORSE.
...Or, alternatively... You can just die now, and hope you get to see them again in the next life. But, let’s face it... We both know by now that you’re too stubborn to ever give up.
...You’d better hurry, Prototype. The clock is ticking.
....
Hello, Alternative Aeon?
Whoops, sorry for not introducing myself. I am known as Phantasm, but how I got your number is none of your business.
I think we MIIIGGGHHHT have a small Full Release Devil-related probblem on our hands.
Just a hunch, but Full Release Devil might be starting to manifest within Beta Reaper again.
...You know, U1's version of Delta Paradox?
...Well, what we NEED to do is contact the OTHER Aeons and formulate a plan to suppress Full Release Devil in case he fully manifests again. I'm pretty sure NONE of us want that.
Wait, U1 AEON IS DEAD!?
WHY is U1 Aeon DEAD!?
Well, for now, let's gather what's LEFT of the remaining Aeons and try to come up with a plan to take down Full Release Devil again.
Aight, later man.
Wait, W H A T ! ?
Ugh, hello?
...No, this is ALTERNATE Aeon. Who are you and how did you get my number?
Whatever, just say what you want before I hang up on you, "Phantasm".
...Full Release Devil, huh? Haven't heard THAT name in a long time.
...Beta WHO now?
OH, you're talking about Beta SHADOW. Well, what do YOU want me to do about it?
Sounds reasonable, other than the fact that the U1 Aeon is dead.
Yes, I LITERALLY just said that.
I dunno, but I think someone from Singularity may have been involved.
Alright then, I'll try to get a hold of 'em. In the meantime, try to stay on your toes.
Hahaha! Suckers!
Who-hoa-ho-ho hold on! Are you trying to make as many potential enemies as possible?
Look. When you're nothing but a soulless machine who is good for quite literally nothing except for jumping and crushing-- all the while being unable to do the last one in several instances-- , you get your victories out of whatever you can.
(And these "victories" are more important to you than the three of our lives?)
Arguably.
...Meh, I don’t get paid enough, anyways. ...Or at all, for that matter. (It would only be fair, though, what with them building over OUR home and all.)
You go do whatever it is you’re doing with this “Full Release” guy or whatever it is you were talking about. I’m gonna go take a nap.




In fact... I'll hold it right now.
Yes, you. The insignicficant one-eyed worm. Scum like you could never hope to defeat me! I am the best! You'll never be able to take me out! Not even in time for the heat death of the universe! I would come closer but my body is frozen out of absolute disgust!
Oh, does my usage of words "offend" you? Now you know how others feel when they look at how utterly hideous you are! Yes, that is right! Try and make me pay for my words!
Seriously, WHY are you still using that 69 IV Snom? It's practically worthless against my Cursola unless it becomes a Frosmoth.
You do NOT talk about Mah Boi like that, scrub!
You'll never see it COMMIIIIINNNN'~!
Wow, using Icy Wind before you Dynamaxxed was actually a pretty neat strat, not gonna lie.
But not as neat as THIS!

What do you know? With just one shot. Just comes to show that not even Big Eyes should think twice of getting in my way...
...Especially when I’m not entirely unconvinced that attacking my teammates wasn’t an “accident”, but rather an “intentional side effect”.
...I understand that I wish to torture you, and that you, seeing me as an enemy and threat, wish to stop me from doing so. But do not attempt it. Any attempt to do so only adds fuel to the fire. And that fire will consume you eventually. So I’d think long and hard about how long you wish to burn in it.
Well, good on you two. You’re actually able to defeat a single enemy on your own. ...Who only had 4 HP maximum. Not an accomplishment.
...And now it wishes to join my team. ...Well, I suppose I should. With my rules, it’s either this or nothing... I shall dub them Datamine, and send them to the reserves.
Thank you, master. I shall await your next command back at the reserves.
...
Nothing is wrong. It’s just that the color scheme reminds me of...
...It’s nothing. Just... an interesting thought.
