Yay! Another chapter! And sure, you get a cookie for being honest.. ^_^ Still! The mystery character is still up forguessings! Also, at long last, we finally meet the Lord of the Dead..
-Kraken Guard
Two imps, One green and skinny and the other fat and red, came running down some stairs with a box of tools.. "Come on, Pain! We've gotta fix the elevator!" Said the Green one, rushing down the stairs. However, the red imp known as Pain was not able to keep up with the panicky green imp. But before Pain know it, he tripped on one of the steps and came tumbling down the stairs..
The argument first began with Ratigan thinking that the Horned King had pushed one of the buttons on the elevator, but after a while it turned into one where they were just simply making threats. Saying things of how powerful they were and that they would simply turn the other into the worlds smartest pile of ash.. (Ratigan however was smart enough to leap out of the argument just as the subject came up..) But by now, Scar had had enough of it all..
"ENOUGH!" Roared Scar. Both Jafar and the Horned King were quickly silenced.. "If you say you are all that powerful, why not use your magic to teleport us out of this mess?" Scar said, looking at the Horned King and Jafar with a questioning look. A loud 'hmph!' sound was heard from the Horned King and he turned his back on the lion. Jafar however, remained speechless.. "Now, before we all kill each other, why don't we just calm down and wait for someone to notice something is amiss?"
"You know, Scar has a really good.." Ratigan began, but Jafar quickly interrupted..
"It is so importent to your future that you do not finish that sentence.." Jafar said, glaring evilly down at Ratigan. Ratigan could have sworn he saw Jafar's eyes beginning to glow red..
Another moment of silence passed, and the elevator music was heard once again and the power was coming back on.. "Now see? What did i tell you?" Scar said with a smug smile. Another moment passed and the villains could feel the elevator was ascending once again..
"When i meet Hades, I'm going to kill him if this song gets stuck in my head.." Grumbled the Horned King..
A loud 'Bing' was heard, informing the villains that they had finally arrived at their destination. Finally, the doors opened and the villains filed out of the elevator..
They were now at the highest level, high enough to get a nice view of the entire underworld itself. Indeed, this was Hades' Chamber.. But where was Hades himself?
The Villains took one step forward when a puff of smoke appeared in front of them, causing them to recoil back. As the smoke diminished, there stood a tall man with blue skin and smoke-gray robes. Most noticeable was his hair, which was blue flames..
"Name is Hades, Lord of the Dead, Hi, how you doing?" Said Hades, holding a hand out to shake the hand of one of the other villains. However, the villains did nothing.. Scar had an emotionless face, meaning he could be thinking anything. Ratigan seemed intrigued by both Hades' hair and how he seemed to glide across the floor. The Horned King simply had a 'you've gotta be kidding me..' look on his skeletal face and Jafar was not sure what to think of it all.. "Jeez, talk about silent. I'm beginning to hear the crickets now!" Said Hades with a sarcastic tone to his voice. He disappeared from in front of the villains and re-appeared on his throne, sitting.. "You are just a few of some of the evillest, meanest and most nastiest villains that have been summoned here to get revenge, yada yada yada.."
"Just exactly when do we get our revenge?" Questioned the Horned King.
"Don't worry, you'll get your chance, Horn-Head.."
"I want things explained now!" The Horned King demanded, clenching his fists in anger.
"Cool it! This is MY Underworld, and there are rules here.. MY rules, to be specific." Replied Hades.
"Do you even know who i am?" Replied the Horned King. By now, his eyes were beginning to glow angrily crimson which was not a good sign..
"Let me take a guess.. You are but one of many evil doers who tried to rule the world with an iron fist but failed miserably?" Replied Hades. The Horned King was speechless and he went to turn and walk away, but Jafar stopped him..
"Please forgive his sudden rude behavior. We are indeed here for revenge and we would like to discover a way to get it." Said Jafar, keeping the Horned King from going back to the elevator by keeping his hand on his shoulder.
"At least someones smart enough to keep their cool.. Anyways, we will be having a meeting in about.. Thirty minutes! Then, Maleficent will explain it all.." Said Hades.
"Maleficent! I should have known.." Said the Horned King, finally giving up struggling with Jafar. "I'll bet she is the one who summoned us, is she not?"
"Well, actually it was Grimhilde's idea to summon the villains, but Maleficent is pretty much doing all the work.." Replied Hades.
"And why exactly did they summon us? What roll do we play in?" The Horned King questioned.
"Honestly, I'm not sure of that myself.. But whatever fits their boots fits their boots.." Said Hades. "Anyways, that's all, folks! By the way, i had Pain and Panic fix the elevator so you shouldn't have to worry about it getting stuck again. Now, scoot! I gotta check and make sure that some of the other villains haven't torn up the kitchen.. Oh, and feel free to grab the list of friends so that you know who is who and what their likes and dislikes are and why there here and stuff like that.. Anyways, later!" Said Hades. Before any of the other villains could ask anymore questions, Hades had disappeared..
Yupperoo, they are not alone.. You shall meet all sorts of new villains both young and old, pixar and/or disney, animated and live action and finally, original villains and villains from sequels because they are that much in need of a vacation! But is it the vacation that they want?
Trivia
-Jafar made a quote from Lost World: Jurassic Park! "You know, Sara has a really good.." "It is so important for your future that you do not finish that sentence.."
-I was originally going to do the 'Up drop down' thing with the elevator like with Tower of Terror but decided against it..
-Was also originally going to be a chapter entirely based on Pain and Panic's point of view but at the moment i wasn't sure how to go about writing that..
