...Tch. If this doesn't work, old man...
And then you'll be like "awww, f
!" and I'll be like "f
yeah you little f
sh
tstain", and then I'll throw it back just to rub it in, and--"
...(lead into the next...)
YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YA--
Um, time out. I am punching him, right? Or am I just punching the air?
YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH! YAH!
To dodge those attacks with such grace even with multiple ribcage fractures... That child surprises me to no end. The rich tree of training is finally beginning to bear fruit.
Go, boy. Show her your fighting spirit!
(I'm within range!)
HRAAAAAAAAAAAGHH!!
DIIIIIIIIIE!!!!!!!!!
Huh? So he's stil in this thing, is he?
Not a problem!
I'll beat you at your own game and win this!
Yes... it is becoming more clear... The true heart of the Oliver Clan's greatest progeny. His passion for what is right, and his care for humanity... though those became warped and divided, by combining the two he would restore himself as an entity far beyond his previous sum...
1: Hmph. His meddling with mortal affairs caught up with him... thus causing him to perish by it.
2: But... he did resurrect, did he not? Then he has never truly met his end.
...No. He won the battle beyond.

6: And...? Is there a point the retelling of that which is known? All that remains obvious needs no wprds.







!?
For you see... Not all events play as you may believe.

5: This... this never happened.
2: The foretold events are already known! That is why the current landscape has changed!....



Could you just STOP?!
If you stopped to think about ANYONE ELSE for FIVE SECONDS, you'd realize whatever you're trying to pull is WAY beyond what the world did to you.
You could've left it at giving your powers back, but no, you thought on your own screwed-up whims you had to be WORSE than whoever took them. Assuming whoever did that even MEANT to.
You don't wanna admit it, but ther ARE people who've been through your problems or worse. And you don't wanna admit YOU put some of them there.
But not everyone has random lucky magic to make all their problems go away. Some people might need an extra hand getting themselves heard.
There was a time where, not gonna lie, I was scared I had NO reason to fight. But thinking about it, folks like these who didn't get their own say?
I wanna fight for them!
AND Y'KNOW WHAT?! THIS IS FOR THEM!!!




...
Y'know what? No.
Didn't think I would. Wouldn't wanna in a billion years.
Because you aren't gonna learn if you die.
Killing you here and now would just seem like a moment of glory to you, wouldn't it? Like you expect people to remember it as the end of some sorta misunderstood hero.
I don't care if it means you're still a problem who exists. Not that it matters much, one thing you didn't pull outta your stinger was that you have nothing.
Nothing that helps you besides looks and brute force, anyway.
I ain't gonna speak for all uf us, but you can come crawling back to me any way you want...
...but if I'm gonna leave you with anything, it's that even if you didn't deserve losing old powers on a whim when it first happened, you let yourself deserve it. Be grateful I'm not burning that paper here and now, even if it doesn't matter to anyone but you.
This, on the other hand...what some of these folks owe their lives to, lives you treated like toys you could throw away...
...I'd say they deserve to do what they want with their lives.
It's...it's quite interesting, being here again. Last time I said "farewell" I was just giving some backhanded spectacle...
...I never thought I would say it actually respecting you two. Or, well, three.
...I really am sorry for my actions against the child. I feel it's a sin I'll carry to the grave...
Test...you didn't know. Back then, we didn't know who knew. It was out of anyone's control, and you shouldn't hold it against yourself.
I know our time was brief, but...I truly appreciate you all. You taught me so much without even realizing it.
...thanks, Mack.
Wherever you're headed next...good luck out there. I'll never forget you all.
...you two coming?
Heh, don't worry, kid. I'd never leave either of you if ya weren't ready.
I mean, I'd say were a pretty good team anyway.
You lead the way, Mack.
Ugh... this is the second consecutive time someone has tried to pull this smokebomb stunt on me.
Wh... what happuned? Who was that man?
*sigh* I have not the foggiest. Even I am not quite sure what happened. The only thing I am sure of, however...
...Is I am beginning to get tired of being put through these situations.
Knock 'em down!
No, thank you.
I despise everything about you... you have ridiculed me to no end in the past... I will not... LOSE... AGAAIN...!!!!
L-listen, kid... I'm... *grunt*... not sure what practicing you've been tryna do, but it's pointless.... I'm the unstoppable, immovable, objective, force!
(Tch. A battle of wills. I was hoping it wouldn't come down to such a matter... )
(Just a second. What on earth..?)
Damn! I'm too late. The damage she's caused is immense.
If you want it done right, I suppose you have to do it yourself...
(Oh, goodie. Now I'm stuck on cleanup duty making sure the boy can fight safely.)
**FWOOSH**
(Fast!)
**ZOOM**
.....you're in my way.
O-old man! What is the mea--
Tch! Blockheaded boy! Concetrate on your fight!
...
...Understand this. I'm not here for you, I'm not here for your pupil figure. The most I came to do is offer you two a warning.
I'm here for the girl. She has been a public menace for years, assaulted countless citizens of separate areas, thus putting them into the hospital... and has occasionally even resulted in tremendous area damage. She needs to be stopped. And I will not allow you to prevent her from such.
Riveting! What inconvenient timing. Do you think you can wait another five minutes before enacting your objective?
.
I figured as well, I simply wanted to get formalities out of the way.
What are you all doing here!? And what the freak is Operation Omega!? No matter, this place is OUR home and we do NOT like intruders!
TARGET:DARKMAN4. BEGIN EXTERMINATION.
Everyone. We've got a home to protect.

Dark1:Yes, sir!
TARGET:DARKMAN3. AIM FOR THIS TARGET.
*yawn*...such a nice day today!
Though...I wish I knew what to spend these days on. Maybe I could visit some of the other Dees...
...though, uh...I dunno what to do...the Crew's probably busy, I don't wanna bother them...
Maybe I should check on the king. It's been a while, he still seems a bit uncomfortable about what happened back in*-
Wh...?!
NONONO! NONO, HELP! HELP!
...so why's it called the Pennsylvanian period?
I was wondering that too...apparently it's because lots of coal mining happens over in the US state Pennsylvania. They do have fossil sites there, but none of them actually match the Pennsylvanian-
Waitholdonholdonholdon!!!
Sese found one of their ribs!!
Neat! Think there's any more here, or-
...
Maybe...then again, I've found half my ribs in...10 different places? They're pretty scattered.
...um...Orange?
I'm not the only one who saw that, am I?
Saw what?
Right. I think we've spent enough time discussing; It's time to begin the hunt for Trio.
Wait! I still have one more question!
What is it, Eta?
...If you relieved Upsilon of his narration duties... What happens to Pi?
Well, I've actually been keeping in contact with Supremo and my Discord and Practice RP counterparts, and we're still discussing what to do with him. Though, we've already decided that he isn't going to be our plot protector anymore.
Well, then who is?
That's the thing... Say, Delta, when was the last time we needed plot protection?
Well, anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, but the last time the "plot police" ever got involved in anything- at least when it comes to keeping a plot in order- was September 17th of last year*.
Huh, a bit closer to now than I originally thought...
...Still, I honestly feel like we're at a point where we- or at least us personally- do not need a "plot police" anymore.
Wait, really? Are you sure that's the best decision?
Well, I feel like this community has grown plenty since Chaos Zone started, and especially moreso when we first had roleplays in this community. Even the past... "troublemakers"... seem to have become more respectable towards the plotlines of others.
Hmm... Well, you may say that, but... I'm not entirely so certain.
I see...
...That's a very specific example, but I don't think we have anything to worry about. It's like I said, this community has grown respectful of each other's plotlines...
*** ...?
Intruders? If anything, you are the ones intruding on this peaceful-
...this relatively peaceful town.
And nevermind what your plans are, just know that we are here to stop them!
...So, I guess I should go after the chimpmunk, then...?
...Uh, ok...?
...So, uh... Probably a bit out-of-the-blue, but uh... What can you even do...?
(Heh... Looks like this win's in the bag! This rotting old geezer's got nothing on my hot bars!)
(Yes... Keep rapping, boy... Keep yourself unaware of my Gengar looming right behind you...)
〈Huh!?〉
What the...!?
...So, you're the one causing a ruckus up here. Somehow, I should've known...
〈How do you know... Wait, are you...?〉
Just focus on your rap battle, kid... I'll handle the interlopers.
...H-heh... You know... Between myself, Yodh****, and Shogun****, I was always considered the weakest... And yet, it was I who lasted longest out of the three of us.
...So when I see them in Hell... I can tell them to BITE IT.
