...well. I'm glad the Mysidian tournament died before I had to fight that guy.

It's not... quite dead...

Neither am I.

Chopped into pieces and still not dead? Well, no matter. Not a heck of a lot you can do to us like that.

Quite correct. But I shall return... and when I do, you shall all perish.

Right. That standard villain line would sound a lot more threatening if you actually had any way to escape.

Oh, but I do. There is just one little thing I have to take care of before I leave...

Get a new body?

No, I shall take care of that later.

I know. You're going to laugh diabolically, aren't you?

I most certainly will not. Whatever for? I am not exactly amused at the moment.

Damn. Not following all the rules of being a clichéd villain, eh? Well then what are you gonna do?

Are you gonna self-destruct and take us all with you?

Don't give him any ideas, big mouth.

I would, but that would make it quite hard for me to return later, now would it not? It is quite simple really... I will make sure this does not happen again in the future.

Oh yeah? And how are you planning on doing that?

Elementary, my dear Broken One. Observe.

What the... something's not right here...

Curses. It appears that my remaining energy was insufficient to sustain my Devolution Beam long enough.

Macc? You look a little different...

Looks like I'm not the only one...

I have no choice but to withdraw for now... However, I shall return. And when I do, you shall learn the futility and sheer foolishness of your actions. *flies up, out of the hole in the ceiling*

Well, that was... interesting, to say the least.

Nice new look there, Macc.

Yeah, you're a lot less blurry-looking now.

Uh, thanks, I think.

Dammit... why do the bad guys always keep leaving before I get a chance to show off the full extent of my abilities?

Must be your charming personality.

Watch it, you. ...well, anyway, if there'll be no more fighting, I'll be off. C'mon, Pikachu.

Pika!

'kay, bye, Kunoichi. Now, it'd probably be best if we go back to Dr. Doppler's lab. I'm not quite sure what just happened, maybe he knows more. Oh, we should also bring Mac with us and hope the doc can send him back.

And someone should get that Mirai guy out of the corner.

*sweatdrops* ...I was wondering where he went.

*huddled in a corner, shaking* This is not happening... this is not happening...

And I would appreciate it if someone would be kind enough to GET THIS THING OFFA ME!!!
