Chronology: Ultimate

Megumin lowered her head and shuddered. "If you want me to trust you, I would hope that you'd stop looking so devious." She growled, trying to fight the feeling of her stomach's slow descent. "So...you know about the Meta, and me losing my Explosion, everything? Even what doesn't concern me? Does that mean I was your puppet this whole time? Did you want me to lose Explosion, unfit to survive in my own world and forced to stay with the MPF, or was it just a happy little coincidence?" She was blistering mad, but still desperate. There had to be some consolation, some compensation...this couldn't be all there was!

Alexis tried to defuse the situation, but Megumin merely scoffed. "It's more than an organization! The MPF is a haven for lost heroes, just like me. I never felt like running away and hiding, because I knew that no matter how useless I felt, I wouldn't be discarded. The MPF is my party, Alexis. Nobody in a party should care for themselves more than any other! If that were the case, Mao Mao would have left me to the White Wolves as soon as one claw was laid on his hide!" She turned on her heel towards Wesker, her nose wrinkled until it pulled her nostrils upward. "There's no way the MPF didn't really care about me, about us. Samus is too smart to be successfully lied to!"
 
"Megumin, you are reading too deeply into this," Wesker chuckled again. "Though I am flattered that you think me to be capable of somehow influencing your past shortcomings, I am afraid that I have merely been an observer this whole time. Watching in the wings... biding my time." It was then that Alexis came in and gave her speech to Megumin and Sage. "The pyromancer..." He hummed a bit as he looked up at her. "Tell me, how is your husband? Is he well?" He asked in a totally not sinister tone at all. Nope. Nuh-uh.

Then, Megumin came back into the conversation, screaming about how it would be impossible that the MPF lied to them. "You saw those documents for yourself, did you not? All those deaths and innocent lives, covered up by the so-called 'heroes' you fight so desperately for. Treated as mere names on paper, while their friends and families never got any semblance of closure." He looked Megumin directly in the eye as he spoke this next sentence. Despite the fact that he was behind a screen and he had sunglasses on, the archwizard could feel him staring her down. "Do you honestly believe the words that are coming out of your mouth right now?"

Megumin couldn't give up. For Samus and Mao Mao, she wouldn't stop fighting. "Biding your time to what? Break us? Well, it won't work!" She puffed up, letting the only tears she'd let herself shed roll down her cheeks. "There must be a good reason. Maybe they thought it was too risky, and didn't want anyone to get curious and go see to the incidents themselves. For Eris's sake, at least one of them involved mass sacrifice! Now that we know, we can give the families closure, and then we'll all unite against the people who took those lives! Who knows? Samus would do so! She could take down a shady federation before, she could be doing it again right now! Because she knew it would make me happy."

"You'll see," Was Wesker's only reply to Megumin's initial question. Then, she gave her spiel about everything else, and all the while Wesker just remained there, staring at her with his usual blank expression. "But does it not bother you that you have been working for an organization filled with lies at its very core? That you have been hurting those you swore to protect? That the rabbit hole hole extends far past a few old files in a box?" Then, she mentioned Samus again. "Do you really think you'll see her again any time soon?"

Megumin stomped her foot. "YES, I DO!" Her proud call bounced between the filing cabinets. "I could have cowered in my home dimension, but I instead set out to rescue Samus! I will not thank her for her kindness by leaving her to suffocate in Twilight, no matter what the MPF has done!" She lowered her head, the shadow cast by her hat only making the glow of her eye more noticeable and intense. "You're going to stop me, aren't you? Out with it! What is it you want us for? Test subjects? Now that we know the dark side of the MPF, are you going to 'persuade' us into joining you?"
 
"You seem to mistake bravery for foolishness... how amusing." Wesker said, unable to stifle his smile at her outburst. Within seconds, though, that smile retracted back into his usual neutral, pensive expression. "I simply wish to free you all from yourselves." He said as an answer to Megumin's next few outlandish accusations. "It is up to you whether you see the truth or not... I am merely your guide to salvation."

"...Dr. Facillier had that line of thought, too." Megumin balled her fists around her staff. "Look at him...He turned out to be some vile being enslaving others under the threat of death! Under the debt of demons, no less!" Drops of spit jumped out of her bared teeth and onto the screen. "For all we know, you're only passing off one half of the truth, and selling it as a whole. How can I let you save me from the MPF when I don't know their side of the story?"
 
Benrey​
Throughout cap’s rant, Benrey was still taking a nap, ignoring the entire thing that happened. He quickly woke up and said to Cap Falc “Hwat did you say sonny, my hearing isn’t what it used to be a couple of minutes ago.” as he looked at, or tried to look at Cap, but failed due to his sphere shape and being too old and tired to do anything.

While everybody else were paying more attention to their problem, Kanon walks out of a random room with a dusty old Rubik's Cube that he fold under a bed. "Can you guys believe that I found an old Rubik's Cube out of nowhere?! This is a life saver, cuz it was getting boring anyways." Then suddenly, he approaches Megumin to see what's the haps & stops with the hand movement on the cube after noticing Albert Wesker on the screen who he does not know of. Dennis is sitting on a chair thinking to himself and Kanon goes to sit beside him. "Who's the man with the Dark Blonde hair with shades? Nobody told me they were inviting guests at all..."


Dennis checks up on Megumin & peeps Wesker, but nothing much that he can say. "All I can say is that we're looking at another Multiverse wanderer, but we'll end up finding out more on him" Dennis says adjusting his glasses for a clear view of Wesker. Kanon stays right where he is just to play with that Rubik's Cube again, & Dennis stands where he is to hear Wesker out.


"Now lemme not assume that this is another villain who's trying to destroy innocent lives, but eh, maybe I could be wrong." Dennis crosses his arms & looks at Megumin "Young one, if you don't mind me asking, but is this man an old friend of yours ooooorrrrrrrr.......?"

"NO!" Megumin snarled at Dennis. "He's probably trying to con us, just as Facillier did! Just as Sigma did, and just as Deathstroke did to Samus!" She put herself between Whesker and her friends, snarling like the attack animal reanimated in her brain.
 
Akari "Paladin" Kishiri
​

Akari watched as Benrey killed a spider-infested rat, then turned his attention back to the potions. People were drinking them now, and so Akari readied his Persona in the off-chance that at least one of them were poisonous.

The potions, much like their colors, appeared to have a variety of effects-- one turned Benrey into a human blueberry, another made him old. Yang became easily distracted, Blake became a "gamer"... the list carried on.

However, it was when Orbeck drank a pink one that things got dangerous. It was apparently some sort of love potion, and with Orbeck's sudden infatuation with Whisper came magical attacks directed at everyone within range.

When Hiryu requested that Akari heal those that were being hurt, Akari sliced the crystals heading for himself and cast Salvation on everyone that needed it. "Love hurts, they say."

Akari cast his healing magic on Orbeck too, since he had experience with Demons that were capable of Charming him and his fellow Phantom Thieves, but seeing as Kassandra had kicked the sorcerer in the chest and incapacitated him, his spell was now meant to fix any injuries that might have been sustained from the kick, rather than the effects of the Love Potion itself.

Having performed his deed, Akari bent over and stretched before raising his arms skyward. "I wanted to try one of those potions, truth be told... I'm glad I didn't."

It was then that while she was waiting on a response from Dib, a man appeared on the tablet’s screen. And boy was he old! Like REALLY old!

“Can you get the hell off of the screen?! We're trying to play Fortnite and Minecraft and Poptropica!” Before he could answer any of her questions, he then got off of the tablet. "Oh thank God he's gone! Now lets find Ninja on Fortnite and run hands with him!"

Thankfully, she was freed from the bedsheet thanks to Kassandra, but she was still bleeding from her wounds. Unfortunately, the crystal’s in her side and her leg were pulled out, making her attempt to hold back a scream. Due to the pain, the last thing she saw before she passed out from the loss of blood and the pain she was feeling was the bedsheet being used as a makeshift tourniquet and then began to get trapped in a bubble by Lilith.

While she would've bled out if no one helped take care of her wounds, thankfully Akari helped out with that by casting Salvation.

"Wait a second, you-!" Megumin couldn't get another word in edgewise as Wesker disappeared. From there, she would try again to unlock the cabin doors. "We've got to brace ourselves..." She growled, shuddering, wondering how Jason would have reacted to her behavior. But...did it matter?

How much did Jason know? How much did Samus and Mao Mao know?

After the video went off, Kanon was getting completely irritated from the Rubik's Cube & aggressively throws it to the ground, "I never liked that toy anyways, it's sickening!" Mr. Righteous thinks about what Wesker just said about not seeing the truth, which allows him to rub on his chin to figure out what truth could he be talking about. "Seeing us all very soon...man, that guy already seem like he's about to start playing all types of mind games if you ask me. Guess we know one of our targets we need to keep a third eye on, & I Dennis Robbins do not intend on another innocent life to go to waste over the dirtiest game that wasn't meant to be played by the Righteous ones. You leave that stuff to the cleaners!" Dennis says then slightly turns his head to get Kanon's attention. "Is that right Mr. Latt, my good friend?"


Kanon walks up to Dennis with a look of curiosity, "Of course, but what happened to that Blonde man I just told you about? None of you people told me he was gonna leave early! Unless that stupid Rubik's Cube became a huge distraction to what I really had to focus on." Kanon balls his fist & squeezes it tightly out of rage for a bit. Dennis begins to chuckle as he shakes his head and lays his hand on Kanon's shoulder, "Let us put that whole game toy thing aside and focus on the REAL problem for now, shall we Mr. Latt?" Dennis taps on Kanon's shoulder twice and walks right off.


Oblivious of who Albert Wesker really is, Kanon starts feeling a BIT cocky for whatever reason. "Who cares about that Old man anyways? He's a One Man Army, & there's nothing much he can do without any assistance. His energy would've been a whole lot different if he said all of this personally & instead of online..."

Dennis walks right back to Megumin. "Listen, from what I'm hearing, you sound like you need help finding & saving ya friends from something. I know that you may feel like you could do this all on ya own, but it's not gonna happen that way. Especially after the fact that you & the team came in to save our behinds back there? We're counting ourselves in this no matter what it takes!" Dennis says confidently & Kanon comes by, "Yeah yeah, I'm all ok with assisting the other heroes & animals with Evil situations and all of that, but I'm not helping no one with anything until I retrieve what's rightfully from my inventory. And Dennis if you're not down with that, then that'll be you helping them until I'm fully prepared." Dennis turns around at Kanon, "Ehhhhhhhhhhh, ok then I guess? Either way though, There's lives out there that are in serious danger!"

"Ein" crawled on the floor, sniffing for any kind of food that she could find for herself. However, before the search could continue any further, Orbeck launched his attack on the group for what seemed to be little reason. As Yang looked, she saw thin crystal arrays coming right at her and a whole bunch of others within the room.

"Ein, look out!"

Yang ran, barely dodging the array of crystals that had come for the dumbed-down blonde. Weiss, on the other hand, had not only dashed, but also headed right towards the assassin, barking angrily towards him. As she went over to try to get her off, however, she was already starting to change; instead of the clothes, painted nails, and cute boys she would think of, she now would think of hip-hop, the occasional recreational drug, and...admittedly, some of the same things she would think of earlier on.

Oh, and she was starting to think that not enough of her was being shown off, as she tugged onto one of her sleeves a bit. Well, that had to wait because as before, she saw "Ein" continuing to bark at Orbeck, who had just been healed by Akari.

"Ey ey ey, Buster!" Yang said, trying to pick up Weiss and stopping her from breaking free. "Can't you just chill?"

Hearing Leo's own shock had been... relieving. Maybe it shouldn't be; It should have been something more in the lines of surprising and upsetting. But, knowing that his best friend didn't know anything about this was actually strangely relieving, as wrong as it sounded. With notions of 'Good' and 'Evil' getting tangled further and further as the time passed, Sage now stood in a weird place of 'being unsure' of everything. And if he suddenly had to see Leo of all people as 'bad'... Well, there was not knowing what the damage would have been.
It could have driven skepticism to an extreme... Or even strained the separation of good and bad more, into either side. It was hard to say.

But luckily, it had not been the case.
Instead, he had been given a green sign to continue placing his trust on the other. Continue having Leo as some kind of emotional anchor.

Megumin's answer, however, had been, a lot more concerning. At the same time that what the pyromancer heard was borderline horrifying, denial tried to fix it up with some convoluted logic that probably didn't really make sense. As in, maybe they were trying to maintain order? Or maybe, they were just trying not to scare them? Or something else that's too complicated to even type! Who knows what he was thinking of. Maybe if he had been given a lot more details it would have hit infinitely harder. Though really, with the already ongoing internal conflict it just added to the important question of what was even 'good' or bad' by now.

Was he good? Was the MPF good? Was anything that they did actually good?

It had been so much simpler back in Gravity Falls. That was a victory that was very clear a triumph of good over evil! Everyone was freed from Bill's mind games and it had felt amazing. But ever since Remnant... it had started becoming more and more complicated. Did they truly save Remnant? By wreaking havoc after havoc the way they had, could they truly say that they were making Remnant better? Had Penguin been worth all the collateral and personal damage? Was there a different way they hadn't thought of?

And back in the voodoo shop, he had been so certain that he was doing the right thing... So certain that not taking the Shareholder's deal was the proper thing to do, instead of being forced to watch the despair of others and be unable to help them over some ill-intentioned contract. BUT EVERYONE THOUGHT DIFFERENTLY! And at this point, he could no longer tell if he was wrong or right, if he was good or bad, if he was helping or just being an extra obstacle. 'The worst kind of harm is the one done when thinking you're helping'. Was that what he had been doing all this time?? Was the damage he had caused far greater than the assistance he had provided?

Pointing out evil and morally wrong actions was so so easy!
But it seemed that pinpointing 'good' was a lot more complicated than he had initially envisioned it to be...

What was Sage supposed to be after all?
A misunderstood wannabe-hero or the true threat of Saraiiho? Salvation or Destruction? Or maybe... He was supposed to be both?
Would accepting that he was continuously both make any of this any simpler??
His spirit fought to protect, while his Ability wanted to destroy... Was it possible to conciliate them? Could one protect while they destroyed?

"They wanted to save her from staying dead, why wouldn't they let us help them save the ones in the redacted incidents?!"​

What had suddenly dragged the confused Descendant out of his own internal dilemma had been Megumin shouting at the console, a suspicious-looking man seemed to take some sort of twisted delight at seeing the archmage despair... All with a calculating tone that he did not like. To be honest, Sage was unsure of why he had said that which he had, maybe it was because despite the rate at with everything seemed to crumble, his religious beliefs still held on pretty strongly. Or maybe because at this rate Megumin might end up just as huge as a mess as he was, and he didn't think anyone deserved such a fate.
Again, he didn't know why exactly, but with a hand on the Missy's shoulder and a pained smile, --as magical runes tightened up--, he had decided to share his own perspective on the matter.

"It's a matter of balance... Life and Death work in pairs. You can only save so many people before the scales are skewed, and when they are, no matter which Universe you're in, it will start working to maintain that balance.", his tone was solemn, sympathetic, gentle, "People will always die, it's an inevitable end. Whether it be of natural causes or some sort of accident, it is the only certainty one can have in life. It ends. Big threats like the ones we fight tend to skew the scales towards Death way too much, more people die than they are born, it's why we stop them. Or even, it's why we're allowed to stop them. But, big tragedies aren't always all detrimental. You said it yourself, 'you can't save everyone'... Death is lonely and upsetting, but I believe that it should be respected all the same. In the big scheme of things, it's as necessary as the air that we breathe. At least, it's what I've always believed in. There's a chance it will just sound like spiritual nonsense to you.", Sage had laughed softly, if only to lighten the mood a bit.

"If that many people were suddenly brought back, putting aside how uneasy the idea makes me, you'd be skewing the scale towards Life and surely as a response, a big tragedy would then follow trying to correct that balance. Then people that weren't supposed to die yet, might. As much as it hurts, there are things that we're not supposed to play with, and if we do, the consequences are many and unpredictable."

Not much longer than that, Alexis had joined them with a piece of her own over organizations and how they always had something to hide. And really, he understood that, how could he not? He was literally the thing that the Phoenix Clan had been hiding for, who knows how many generations!! Hidden over fear, over tradition, over the prophecy, but in a way, also for his own protection... There was no denying that his sole existence was like a magnet for trouble. From people rejoicing at the End of the world to Moon Descendants wanting a challenge, to even attempted murder. A sheltered life had worked both ways.

Still, as he was right now, the Kitsune's words little related to Sage. Maybe back in New Donk City, the unwavering, standing for morality hero image he had been acting out. Yet now, there were few certainties in his mind... The feeling to be better somehow, --which had never truly left--, and a bunch of religious values that blended with moral ones. With everything else as uncertain as the words in a blurred textbook caught in the rain, his first reply to her had been a shake of his head. Perhaps even, a little dismissive in nature.

"Don't put me in the same spot as Megumin, I don't deserve it. To be completely honest, I didn't even end in the MPF of my own volition... I had ignored that message, I wanted nothing to do with it and still got sent to their building regardless. So I resigned, might as well help around anyway, right? And all I did was get annoyed at the guy running a mission simulation, after it had ended and was revealed to be a simulation. Even back there, I was being tricked and just as unstable as I am now... Honestly, I'm nothing but a kid trying to play adult, while also trying to play hero, or- I was. I'm- I'm not sure what I am anymore. Lost, I guess...", it was starting to become hard to breathe again, as tears rose to the corner of his eyes, "I think, I'm just looking for things to remain attached to because I feel like it's all crumbling and I'd be lying if I said that I'm not scared. I- I can't tell what will be left of 'me' at this rate and I'm really afraid it might be something bad."

The pyromancer could only stay there downcast, trembling in place. He still had his grip on Leo's clothing as a lifeline, having never let go of it, but everything else, from Lealan going back to singing, Blake yelling nonsense and Megumin berating the man on the screen to the point he had left with the promise to meet them again; Everything else was just background noise and it did not compare to the internal chaos.

  • With Kassandra’s friend, Ciri, now healed, and Orbeck incapacitated for the time being, she nodded graciously to Akari for his work. That said, she couldn’t help but give Lilith a stink-eye when the ghost decided to go overkill by encasing Ciri. She didn’t harangue Lilith, though, as she went over to look at the potions left. It was at this point that Ikaros flew back into the room, perching himself on the table with the potions and staring at the gray one in particular. Well, the Spartan decided that she, of all people, was blessed by Tyche, taking the gray potion before downing it all in one go despite it being obvious that taking a bad one would have consequences.

Thorne feels the taste of the tangerine vial like orange & it is like a zesty look, as she dropped the vial she feels it is the time too run around or doing an exercise but she decides to freeform dance saying to everyone while screaming "I'M NOT TOOO TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"​
 
The gray potion had a very odd flavor to it. It was almost... light in texture? It really didn't have a taste. In fact, if Kassandra could compare it to anything, it would be water. Before long, however, she was given a splitting headache! Her head literally began to pulsate in a fashion that damn near might make her drop the vial and shatter it on the ground, before kneeling over and collapsing. All she could really do was scream as her brain and head literally began to expand to an almost comical degree. Veins began to creep their way up around her cranium as her brain's power was kicked into maximum overdrive, and by the time her transformation had finished, she looked a little something like this...

ios_large_1567447656_image.jpg


With her newfound brainpower (and her constant splitting headache) she would quickly be able to deduce a formula that could quite possibly cancel out the effects of all the other vials! All she needed now were the ingredients-- which she was conveniently able to find lying around the cabin with no issue at all! Also, her Greek words and tone would be replaced by a sudden need to use big words all the time and speak in a German accent.

Jett face palms her face in quite awkwardness as she looked at Hiryu saying "You friends with Kitty Cutie, I am so confused on what is going on after you say that everyone drink a potion including..... Crap, Thorne!!!!!!" She will run back to the room & sees Thorne doing freeform dancing right before having thoughts on this situation, so she said to Jason "What color of a potion did Thorne drink now??? I'm completely lost for words, man." Jett then looked at Thorne after she head towards the female that was doing freeform dancing right before trying to shake her in order to think about what will heal the effects of the potion saying "Thorne, snap out of it!!! This isn't you, you potion drinking idiot."

Thorne then ignores the shaking from Jett right before grabbing her hand & started to have a romantic dance with the white haired female saying "Come on, Jett!!! Let's dance a bit, please??" She says that while doing a waltz yet formal dance while holding Jett's hand.​
 
Snake walked over to where the vials are. Picking one up, Cyan. He examined it in his hand. "So a random effect... Gonna have to look into that later." He slid the vial into one of his pouches and closed it, intent into just giving it to someone to try and figure out what the actual fuck it is. After that he walked around, eventually hearing someone singing, and decided to follow. He ended up walking to Lealan. To say he was confused when he saw her in a ball on the floor was an understatement. "Uhh... Lealan?"
