[2nd Evil Meeting] || [Evil is One Big Family] || [Open]

[great_king_of_evil]

Characters : Open to any and every villain / morally gray character in the tower
Setting: Eight Floor (Labyrinth)
Format: Either Prose or Action
Summary: This is a reunion for all bad guys in the tower, or at least characters who are morally gray, who think ends justify the means, etc. If your character qualifies, feel free to post in. There are no invitations or network message about it, Ganondorf simply spread the rumor that a reunion was about to happen on the 8th floor, this way all bad guys could get word of it.

There will be mostly the bad guys speaking about what happened lately and what should be done. Possibly a few far-fetched plans to take over the tower. And probably ideas to make the good guys' lives even worse. Spies are welcome as well, although of course, there are risks…

Like for the other reunion/party threads, this one will be divided in sub-threads. One of them for before the reunion, one during and one after. There will be another thread for Kidou and Romeo (aka the bitties) who have been invited at the very end for corruption purpose and a fifth thread where Reno's betrayal will be uncovered after the reunion ended and most participants left.

Warnings: EVIL. If a good guy interrupts the reunion he’ll be killed or worse.



Unlike last reunion, this one didn't happen in the Cathedral. No, too many people had walked in the cathedral last time and it was too much of an open space. Didn't want another Link or so-called hero to walk in and get off'd. This time it happened at the center of the maze in the eight floor. Much more discreet and less dangerous-

Those participating in should have no difficulty reaching the center fortunately enough. Undesirable intruders though... That is better left unsaid.

The maze was different from usual. It was night already and grey, dense mist was filling the entire floor. In the center of the maze were over ten chairs, all of them identical and arranged in circle. It was so that those sitting could speak to each other directly and freely. They were all identical. much like last time Ganondorf had figured it wouldn’t be a good start if he had given different chairs to everyone.

[Arrival / Pre-Reunion] || [Mingling]

[evil_meeting]

[ This is the thread for general mingling as the participants in the reunion arrive in the maze or at the meeting. ]

[midgarhorizon]

[If Reno didn't show up this time, that would be suspicious. He knew it was dangerous, but he still had to come.

So there he was, sneaking around after dark with his EMR in hand, settling down in the maze when he finally found the meeting place.]

[great_king_of_evil]

[ Considering he's the one who organized both the first and this meeting, the King of Evil is obviously the first one in the reunion. He's sitting on one of the chairs and waiting for people to arrive- Well considering how few reasonable person the tower seems to attract and considering how many people from the first reunion mysteriously disappeared- He doesn't expect lots of people.

He's looking a bit preoccupied and bored, mostly. ]

[wittlich]

[Will he still be bored if a teenage girl teleports into the main area, out of nowhere really?

...

She's silent for a moment, surveying the area. ]

Getting a meeting out via word of mouth. You managed to do an adequate job, if you are, I presume, the one who organized this.

[justiceerror]

Heehh....

[Battler is curious about this man.]

You don't seem very entertained.

[scorchedchivalry]

[Ganandorf may notice the black knight standing back in the shadows of the maze, by the wall away from the chairs. Red lines run through the armor and a black visor covers the knight's face.

If not for the strong dark energy coming from the knight, one might think it a statue with how the knight stands still and at attention, hands before it as if the knight was holding a sword point down before it. Yet, no sword is seen...]

[crouching_sin]

[Naoya heads in, making short work of the maze. It was easy to find his way through it - patterns were patterns, after all. He finds a chair where he can watch as people emerge from the maze, and he folds his hands in his lap, waiting.]

[bleh_heh_heh_bleck]

[Cheater Bleck is a cheater and simply flips into the room nearest a seat for himself, appearing to be floating just above it. Part of him was curious about what might happen at this meeting and the other part was mildly amused.

He really didn't plan on allying himself with either organization. Merely help where it was most convenient.]

[silentsacrifice]

[By word-of-mouth, Itachi had managed to catch wind of some sort of "evil meeting" taking place within the tower. He was no stranger to organized crime, being a member of a similar organization back home. He'd joined that one to keep an eye on its members, and he intended to do the same with this one.

He's quiet as he makes his way through the labyrinth and to the meeting place. He doesn't make a show of arriving, nor does he bother to sit down. He simply takes his place behind one of the empty chairs and observes those around him. Perhaps he'll speak up at some point, but until then, he'll keep to himself.]

[justiceerror]

[What's this what's this? How absolutely... interesting. He's merely having a look around, his hands in his pockets while he does so. Fight the urge, Battler. Don't kill anyone....]

[doctor_dismemberment]

[Richtofen walks in like he owns the place, and everyone else are just unwanted intruders. Like normal, he seems suspicious of everyone, but this time he's even more irritable and on-edge. The recent swap has left him disoriented; he doesn't like that someone else was in his head, knowing all of his secrets, and he didn't like how he'd been in another body so long that he thought it was his own.

Oh, and he's still blatantly unrepentant about the fact that he ruined the original evil group's attempts to take over the tower. His fault? Obviously not. Everyone else screwed up, and he's inwardly blaming all of them as he scrutinizes the group. Even the new faces won't be spared from his glare as he takes a seat and crosses his arms.]

[birdinthehand]

[Ankh had caught the rumors and figured it would be worthwhile to see exactly what a "bad guy" meeting involved. As a Greeed, he had to qualify. Woe befall anyone who would attempt to kick him out.

He's not sitting down, not yet. Rather, he's pacing around the outer ring of chairs, eyeing the others present, and watching to see who else might be there.]

[scorchedchivalry]

[Someone may notice the black knight standing back in the shadows of the maze, by the wall away from the chairs. Red lines run through the armor and a black visor covers the knight's face.

If not for the strong dark energy coming from the knight, one might think it a statue with how the knight stands still and at attention, hands before it as if the knight was holding a sword point down before it. Yet, no sword is seen...

When the knight arrived... no one could really say.]

[servessithis]

[Now this rumor he just had to follow up on. He doesn't think of himself as truly evil, but he does murder people in the name of his deity and do other questionable things.

Quite the gathering, so far.]

[capax_infiniti]

[As usual, Xehanort is sitting by himself, watching the others in the room curiously. He doesn't have terribly high hopes for this gathering, but it could be amusing in its own way. It's almost a race to see which of the organized groups is actually effective, first.]

[The Reunion]

[evil_meeting]

[ This is the thread for the reunion itself once it's begun. The fact that all those sitting here care very little for moral and are willing to do whatever is necessary to reach their goal is well known so don't hesitate to start a topic about whatever you want to discuss or think should be done ]

About the tower and what should be done

[great_king_of_evil]

[ Because someone needs to start the first topic-- Ganondorf as the one who organized this joyful meeting between good people shall be the one to do it. ]

A lot has happened since the last reunion-- The experiment of June, the whale, the bodyswap. And I believe most of those who composed the original group are gone or have been defeated by the tower...

[ ...And its "good" inhabitant. Evil people turning good is definitely a bad, very bad thing. ]

Let's not even mention Princess Zelda's attempt at setting up some kind of order or government- Under her command of course. I believe none of us here like to be ordered around.

[ He pauses. ]

I still believe our priority should be to find ways to keep our enemies under control, but we should also aim at understanding and taking over this tower now that we know... more. Suggestions maybe?

About the bodyswap and hacking and chemicals

[crouching_sin]

[Naoya doesn't stand, but he does straighten a bit as he speaks.]

A number of us experienced the body swap recently. During the course of this we learned a number of interesting things, both about our conditions here and the drones here.

First - obviously our minds can be moved around quite easily. If you swapped with someone who you do not know well, I'd advise keeping a close eye on them due to what memories they may have been able to access.

Second - we discovered a password for one of the administrators. It's not even close to complete access, but it's something to start working with.

Third - the drones that retrieve bodies here have syringes in their legs. We were able to retrieve some of the chemicals for the purposes of switching people back. We did work out the combinations needed to switch people, however other combinations of chemicals were not tested. I'm unsure if anyone was able to keep some of said chemicals, but we may or may not be able to induce other effects with them.

[The Bitties] || [End of Reunion]

[evil_meeting]

[ Following this thread where Kidou's and Romeo's brave attempts at helping the so called "good people" to see the errors of their ways, Ganondorf has invited the two kids to speak their mind at the reunion of the other side. Because obviously the bad guys are way more open minded than the heroes.

By the time the bitties arrive, the meeting will be ending and Ganondorf will have informed the others they were invited in order to destroy 'exploit' the Fellowship and see what can be done. ]

[myblueskies]

[Romeo waited with Kidou; he was a little bit frightened. The maze was somewhere he avoided usually but today was important. They had to go talk to the bad people of the tower and convince them to work together with the good people to beat the even badder people.

Very important work but Romeo was ready. He smiled at Kidou.]

(frozen comment) [Post-Reunion] || [Mingling]

[evil_meeting]

[ This is the thread for general mingling once the reunion is over. ]

[Reno's Fate] || [Post-Reunion]

[evil_meeting]

[ This is the thread where Reno's betrayal is unveiled. It involves only Ganondorf, Xion and Riku (a spy, alas). By the time it'll happen, most people will have left the reunion but some can happen to hear and witness this wonderful event if they lurk around.

Ganondorf will have simply told Reno to wait until everyone's gone to speak about a matter of utmost importance. ]

WHAT IS WITH THAT ICON

[midgarhorizon]

[So this is it. This is what he felt was coming, sifting through the vague memories of Ganondorf.

Well, he wasn't one to back away from a challenge.]

Post-Post-Meeting

[midgarhorizon]

[Reno was paralyzed, still wrapped up in his shadow. He couldn't scream, but he could hear what was happening.

Then it faded, and he felt himself moving.

Then stopped.

Where was he? What happened? What the hell was Ganondorf going to do to him?

Reno was a turk. He'd been through his share of getting captured, torture, attempts to break him, but this. This had him scared. The kind of power Ganondorf had, it was a different sort of power than Shinra, even from Sephiroth. It was the sort of power that could reach inside someone and make them wish they were dead. Nothing he had been up against prepared him for what was about to happen.

If he could move, he would probably be shitting bricks.]

[great_king_of_evil]

[ After over ten minutes left in this position to think, Reno would feel the shadow slowly letting go of him and allowing him to regain his senses. If he looked around he could see that he was in the Aquarium Floor, even though it was quite different from usual. The same fog that covered the labyrinth was covering this floor and the water looked... green unlike its usual color. Even the fishes looked more ferocious. And of course, there was very little light, as if night was falling and it was dusk.

Before long, Ganondorf would appear right in front of Reno, with a wide smile. ]

My apologize for the delay, I had to take care of our undesired guests back in the labyrinth...

[ Giving that smile Ganon was abhorring, who knew what had happened to Xion and her mysterious benefactor.

In the case Reno would try and run, he would soon realize that, as gree as he is, his shadow keep his feet well grounded where he is. Sorry Turk, there is no escape. ]
