(Within Sicon's extradimensional doom fortress, an enormous portal opens up and disgorges Acrigeon's war cocoon (incidentally, it's named Black Opal VI), which immediately starts emitting miniature pulsars, black holes, and electron disruption pulses in every direction via its shields. Yes, war cocoons attack with magic shields. It's useful.)
Nothing personal, Sicon- I just want to shake things up a bit. Do try and enjoy the fight, won't you? Just killing us instantly or revealing that we ended up in an entirely different location without us realizing it would be such an anticlimax after all of my hard work. Do note that I don't expect to win by any means- again, I'm merely here to have some fun.
Well... would this be a bad time to mention that I decided I needed some extra money to fund my experiments and so I rented out that wing of the fortress to some of Isla's in-laws?
Really?
Because I didn't. Instead I just turned the entire wing into a ravenous hole in reality. That is sentient. It sort of appeared after I ran that experiment involving turning a black hole inside out. It wanted to eat me, but after I kicked its ass and promised it food, it agreed to be my servant. It's odd in that it doesn't exactly seem to exist. It's like a huge hallucination. Except it makes everything it touches a hallucination. That makes everything THAT touches a hallucination. Then it gets to something sentient, and... well, I'm not sure WHAT happens. Shall we find out? It DID just leap across dimensional barriers into the Coffee Room. I wonder who will be eaten first...
Now, in the meantime, I'm going to lock it out of here just to save myself the bother if it gets uppity and tries to attack me.
*Warped remains of the ship slam into the coffee room from a hole in space that begins to devour the surrounding area as... whoever Endless is is hurled clear of the wreck.*
Oh, wow, you survived that? Well, you ARE still being chased by that... something. According to my experiments, it doesn't actually interact with reality at all, so it can't exactly be stopped either. It should be interesting to see if you all find a way to survive this...
In the meantime, I need to rebuild all this crap. Luckily, Xana stored some nanobots in the back room before I took it over, so it shouldn't take TOO long to rebuild the infinity chamber. What a bother...
Normal people are the easiest to manipulate. Too smart and they have an annoying tendency to catch wind of your plans, too dumb and, in the words of a certain pirate, "You can never tell when they are about to do something incredibly...stupid."
