So apparently I'm supposed to tell whoever lives here about this "Trio" guy.
Honestly, I don't know why Digamma doesn't just deliver it himself. I mean, when was the last time he did anything maj-
...Well then.

Ah. 'Cool Moves Even A Monkey Could Learn'.
...Exploding?...
No wonder he needs me instead. Well, I should be at least be able to handle the basic stuff... like here. Level One...
"The Mystical Mortal-Killing Blows of Death That You Do Not Let Kids S-see"....
"Typhoon Fist" ...Hmmm! That sounds simple enough. Only a few steps, too...
Okay... focus. Use my entire body, starting with my legs, to my hips... draw one arm back, push forward the other...
HYAAAAAAAGBAHSGKASGKASJGBG!!!
....
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(...If you do anything bad, I will make sure to snitch the heck out of it.)
(Psh. Prepare to feel pathetic.)
Oops! Sorry, I slipped.
See, it’s difficult to contain your power when your dad’s a god. But that’s fine
You know. Despite living in the Reaper Lounge for awhile...I haven't really gotten to know the other reapers.
Hell I haven't even paid attention enough or been present enough to know if these are the same reapers from my old world.
Ever since then I've been...useless. Maybe it's time to change that...we've got a pretty big threat after all...
I've been training a bit too I suppose. I'll have to ask one of the other reapers if they have any tips or something...
If you want to learn more about being a Reaper, then speak to any one you want. But if you want to get stronger, then you'll need to think less like a Reaper and more like a martial artist.
This advice goes to you, too. It's my understanding that you want to learn to be a Reaper, is that right?
I'm not a Reaper myself, but I've been a Pseudoreaper for a short while. And even then, back when I was evil, I've studied the Reapers enough to know just one thing: Learning how to be a Reaper and learning how to be strong are two separate things.
We'll discuss strategy AFTER we find the Star Scepter. We won't be able to know who will be wielding it until after it finds its Chosen One, since only THEY- whoever it may be- will be able to wield it.
Actually, that does raise the question. What do we do if it turns out that NONE of us are the Chosen One?
Things like this tend to react strongly to the mere presence of the one who is meant to wield it, or alternatively seems to call out to the intended user. If none of us are the Chosen One, then we can simply seek out who it is.
And you think Trio's going to give us the time for all this?
...Given that we're not ALREADY destroyed... I'd say he may just give us all the time we need.
...With all that said... I believe that we're here.
Well, now. You have more resolve than I gave you credit for.
Your power is remarkable, though from what we were told of you, that was to be expected...
...But I didn't sign up for this mission simply to DESTROY you... I desire to make you DESPAIR!
CRORQ, Alarm, and I will handle the DOS robots on our own. Go and crush those FREAKS they are trying to protect!
Ashura Wave!
Nice try, but I'm a bit of a fighter of my own! You won't lay a single hand on these two without going through me, first!
Oi, just made a Haiku and I'd like to hear your criticisms.
So... is there, like, any special criteria for being a Chosen One...? Orrrrrr....?
...
....Rrgh... gh.
(Are you kidding?... All this time, and I'm not even good enough to do one of Master's most basic techniques? All the while lean, green, and not-so-keen over there is just able to pull it off like it's nothing!?)
(...Wait a minute. if it couldn't even so much as make me budge before, yet now can do all this fancy schmancy stuff... was that brat just pretending to be weak so it could humiliate me? Was this all one big setup!?)
Tch. N-not bad, for someone relying on pure genetics. I just... I forgot to stretch. I don't function right if I don't get my limbs in the right mood.
...I hate to say it, but... For all we know- which is nothing at all, keep in mind- the chosen one could be picked out of complete chance. So as sucky as it may sound, we might just have to hope to be lucky that it'll end up being any one of us.*
Ah, hello! You must be new drifters, correct?
Drifters...?
That's simply what we call the people who have come here through an Omnihole, which would be that dimensional vortex you-
...Er, sorry, you did come here through a wormhole, right?
That, I would say not.
Oh, my apologies, then. I suppose that means you're from this universe?
...Uh, sure, let's go with that.
I see. That would make you visitors, then!
My name's Beta, Beta the Rabbit! It's nice to meet you all!
(Beta the... Rabbit? Hang on a second-)
Huh, cool, we have similar names! ...Mine's Beta Man, by the way.
Beta Man, huh...? Well, hopefully our names won't cause any confusion, heheh!
...On that note... Is there anything in particular I can help you all with?
...Alright, finally. Let's see what I can find out about this dark energy...
...Well, someone needs to get off their high horse.
Right. Now to see if I can get them to deal with this "Agony" mess...
I do not have a car, stop calling me.
What the- How the hell did you even GET this number!?
...Point taken. The hell do you want?
I'm not one for family reunions. Let's make this quick.
Buddy, I've been through enough to know I'm my worst enemy.
And I won months ago.*
...Interesting information, I guess. But what the hell do you want me to do with it? Because I highly doubt you snapped and want me to use it to destroy the world.
Ok, Trio, I know. But Reaper say what now?
Ignoring the fact that I'd rather die AGAIN then be some kind of hero, especially on YOUR behalf, aren't you able to make a copy of yourself to do just that?*
I recall.
I see. One final argument: Why the hell should I even CARE?
Then I'll simply deal with Trio while YOU mess with this stupid Agony stuff.
...
...Fine. But just so you know, I'm not doing this because you ASKED...
...I just wanna show these B-Ranks what a REAL villain is like.
What was that about? You almost let those knives hit you, and you left yourself open to that explosive attack.
Oh, sure. The next time someone throws a piece of paper in my face, I'll just use my Sixth Sense to avoid the attack. You know, if I HAD one of those.
Ugh, just try not to be so careless.
Believe me; The same tricks will NOT work twice.
"Trio", huh...? ...I don't quite know anything for dealing with such a dangerous foe...
...But, perhaps someone in town knows? The easiest place to find someone would be the Crossroads Bar... but...
But...?
Unfortunately, some... peculiar individuals have rented it out for a party this evening***. They tend to do this every year for October... A bit of a Halloween thing, or so I'd assume.
What exactly do you mean by "peculiar"...?
PARDON ME.
...We... try not to ask. I'm sure there are other places to look for someone to talk with, though; I can even give a tour, if you guys would like.
We got us a timestopper, huh?
(Doesn't look like she'll be able to move Big Guy, though.)
Urrgh. (Gotta find a way to do something about those Time Arrows...!)
You are surrounded. Tell us who hired you, and we will make this fast. Refuse and you will face extended pain.
Please refuse. It'd be the biggest shame to end this so early...
(Dammit... filthy skanks... they managed to take away all my 'munition!)
Are you for real? What a dumb bluff. It's obvious you've run out of bullets.
...
Ya sure ya wanna test that?
Heh. I'll take that bet.
Huh?
?
!
LOOK! LOOKIT'S SOUL! SHE'S GONNA BEAT UP MR. ARPEGO! LOOK! LOOK HOW COOL SHE IS! HI SOUL!!! LOOK AT HER AND OPERA, SCALE, LOO--
Get away from there, attention stealing baby.
Owie.
I already have live footage of the whole thing, you little rugrat. You didn't have to go and distract them like that.
I just wanted to say hello to them! No fair!
You did more than just that, tyke...
*kaff* What the hell is this!? What's goin' on?
(We let our guards down... he set up a fog while we were distracted.)
