Chapter 25: The Discussion about The Death Masks and Maskus's Plan

After Maskus challenged Sonic, they all got together in the prophecy room to have a discussion. "I hate boring meetings." complained Peter.

Lois slapped Peter. "Shut it Peter, You need to listen to Sonic."

Sonic was telling everyone about the fight he had with Maskus. "So after Maskus saved Jozen, Stella, and that Taslle woman; I finished him off and he told me that the fight was all a test to see if I was worthy enough to join the Death Masks."

"Maskus saving some of our own kind?! That have never happened before." said Rezuly.

"Not only that, but it was Jozen and me." Stella said to Rezuly.

Lady Tremela hummed with her thoughts. "I could understand if he just wanted to save that woman, but he could have easily killed you two."

"I would have done it (Bzzp) I hate meetings." Metal and Peter both high fived each other.

"And don't forget that Maskus wants Sonic to join the Death Masks even though he's supposed to help stop them." added Amy.

Sonic turned to Chief Padolm and asked, "So Chief, do you know why the bad guys want a good guy to join them?"

Chief Padolm stroked his chin. "During the nine years Maskus and the other Death Masks were awaken, they seemed to want to form an alliance with us rather than enslaved us. During the era of Mascasa's Terror, he had a hand full of our ancestors enslave to do the jobs the Death Masks used to do, which is considered a blessing to what he did to the majority of us. I'm sure that when Mascasa awakes, he will want the same thing. But we do not know why the other Death Masks Masters want all of us."

Chris then started waving his hand in the air. "Oh Oh, want if it's part of the prophecy?" Everyone was surprised that Chris just came up with a good theory. "… what? I can be smart too you know." Chris folds his arms and look away.

"That may just be it Chris." said Lady Tremela, "At their pyramid, they have the complete telling of the prophecy."

Metal Sonic eyes glowed dark. "It's a very good strategy for villains like myself to know what will happen. We have a huge disadvantage on our hands."

Chief Padolm then said, "No matter what they are truly planning, we cannot allow ourselves to join them or be a part of whatever they have planned. It is our responsibility to save the worlds form the Mascasa and the Death Masks!"

"But what if Maskus planned that we will refuse his offer?" added Peter. "Guess this mean we will be discussing how smart that guy is at predicting which will just be repeating what he will predict from us over and over. Like; 'Ah ha! You think I want this, well think again, I did. And I also wanted you to think that, and that, and that'."

While they were talking about if Maskus wanted them to join or not, Stewie was talking to himself. "God Chief Padolm scares the crap out of me." He begins having flashbacks of how the chief demanded him to stay away from his daughter. "If he ever knew about the Death Masks, I might as well just sing I Believe I Can Fly."

(Cutaway Gag)

Stewie is on stage singing I Believe I Can Fly. Then Simon Cowell came and starts beating Stewie with a baseball bat. "You truly are pathetic."

(End Cutaway Gag)

Just then; Stewie's Green Eyes necklace started glowing and he quickly answered it to not have any one else notice. "Hey, who is this? I'm with so many people now." Whispered Stewie.

From the necklace, #52 could be heard. "Sorry Stewie, remember Mecha and Silver Sonic that joined us? Well they set up a computer for us and we would like to know if you can provide us with that thing called internet."

"I can't right now; that psycho, over protective Chief Padolm is talking to us." Answered Stewie who was eyeing at everyone.

"Darn it, I heard that many people are interested in something called porn. I don't know what it is but …. Did you just called that tanskined-serpremises Chief Padolm a psycho?" asked #52.

"Well yes and, wait what?" asked Stewie.

"Let me guess, you want to be together with a Green Eyes girl. Good luck with that sir, he'll have you-"

Just then Chief Padolm took Stewie's necklace away from him. "Sorry … Stewie; no outside communication during important meetings." He then walked back to where he was before.

"Good God that was scary." said Stewie.

Chief Padolm then gave one final word, "Before you all leave, we have some information for everyone that could help us." Lady Tremela, Jozen, and Bruce came to the center of everyone and showed them all the prize Chris won.

Bruce was the first to speak. "Me and Lady Tremela were doing some investigating on Chris's prize from that weird little guy. We found out that it's supposed to be a key to something for three of the four chosen ones."

Jozen then said, "It is a part of two other coin shards that my one day help us through the prophecy. If anyone has any information about these, please come forth."

Meg then remembered that she has the second piece. She took it out and ran to Jozen. "Jozen, I have the second piece!"

Jozen saw Meg running strait toward him, so he called two guards to tackle her. He then saw the shard and said, "She's actually serious! (sigh) Release her." The guards got off Meg and she gave them the piece.

"I don't believe this." said Lady Tremela. "Who did you find this?"

"Don Patch and Jelly Jiggler gave it to me as pay. Please do NOT go their ever again."

Lady Tremela read the shard out loud. "of… that's just it, of."

"All together, it says Key of ….. that really doesn't help us out does it." said Jozen.

Lady Tremela looked at the two shards. "Well at least we have two of the three pieces."

Jozen then said to everyone. "On another note, we have located the world Link lives in. I have no clue about this time line, but we should easily find the activated Cross-Over Crystal."

Chief Padolm faced to Sonic and Peter. "You and your friends will leave tomorrow. Please be ready and Sonic, you should inform them everything you know about this Link."

Sonic gave a thumbs up, "Will do!"

So after the meeting, everyone left to look for the last shard and Chief Padolm gave Stewie his necklace back. The chief glared down at the baby. "You are doing a good job staying away from my daughter."

Stewie was still scarred at the Chief and he said, "S-ure am Chief Padolm." Chief Padolm looked out the window to see Stella playing with Amy and Monkey. "Sonic and his friends are alright; but Peter and his friends, I see most of them as a problem."

"Problem?" asked Stewie.

Chief Padolm looked back at Stewie. "I know that you and your family are from another world and are important, but I would give anything to make the people ….. perfect. I just need you to continue to stay away from my daughter, understand." Stewie shook his head yes and then left.

Chief Padolm looked back out the window and started watching the other-worlders doing their usual thing; TGWTG answering questions, Don Patch and Jelly Jiggler Wiggin out, and Peter Griffin doing some shenanigans. "I will give anything." said the Chief.

"Of course you will." said someone else.

Padolm turned around and was shocked to see Selim and Taslle together. "What are you two goons of the Death Masks doing here in my palace!?" asked the chief.

"I think you know why" both the spies said with joy.

Later on; Stewie flew back to the Pyramid of Mascasa for another meeting with the Death Masks. When he got into a deeper corridor of the pyramid, he saw Wario, Mecha Sonic, Silver Sonic, #52, and Maskus. He also saw a new face, the one-winged angle Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7.

Maskus was talking to Sephiroth. "You seem to be the only other villain worthy of joining us, but we have a rule here for flesh creatures and that is everyone needs to have short hair.

Sephiroth looked at his long silver hair. "I'm out." He then walked out.

"From all those other-worlders that are villians and are serious, that guy was the only one." Complained Maskus. So everyone that was still left gathered around for the meeting. "From the technical advancement we received from the Badniks, we are now more advanced than the Green Eyes."

Everyone clapped for Mecha and Silver S. "Thank you all." said Mecha.

"It is what we badniks do best." said Silver S.

Maskus then continued, "We also have discovered the third world that holds the third and last of the Cross-Over Crystals that we need to retrieve. Due to what happened last time, I will join Master Aracandous for the next world, where the third chosen one lives. I would like everyone to be on a look out to any of the three coin shards we need."

Stewie raised his hand. "I know where the second one is, my sister Meg has it."

Maskus was intrigued by this. "Well then that means there is only one more left. Well we wouldn't be able to just take it now, because of that shield surrounding the city. We will just have to wait."

#52 walked next to Stewie. "By the way, Stewie. Do you have this electrical power source we need for these machines?"

Stewie took out a box. "I have some uranium here that will be good enough."

Mecha skied to Stewie and said, "Unacceptable, that substance is highly dangerous!"

"Well it's not like it'll just randomly blow up."

(BOOM)

"…..What I said before, highly dangerous." said Mecha while everyone was covered in black dust.

Everyone turned to Stewie with annoyance. "Welllllllll at least it did cartoonish damage." said Stewie.

"Not on our electronics!" said Silver S. Stewie looked around to see all the machines damage.

"Don't worry; you can all borrow my toys." Stewie handed Mecha a sheet of paper. "This is a list of all my inventions, see any you like?"

Mecha skimmed through the list. "Lasers, guns, bombs, a time machine, teleporter, shrink rays, and a cloning machine." Mecha looked at Stewie. "Some impressive inventions. Not even Eggman was able to create a cloning machine."

"Yeah, but the cloning machine do have its flaws. The clones will melt in an R rated way." explained Stewie.

Mecha handed #52 the list. "There's too many humans on this planet already."

Just then, Selim and Taslle appeared in front of them. Mecha and Silver S. got into battle poses, but Maskus stopped them. "Relax you two, these are my friends. They want the same thing we want, to awaken the King of Terror."

"My name is Selim, and this is my special friend Taslle." introduced Selim. "We need to talk to Maskus privately"

Silver S.'s spikes started moving. "We are on the same team, you can tell us."

Maskus turned to Silver S. "Now Silver Sonic, this is for me only. You all may leave."

Mecha walked to Maskus and asked, "We should listen to Silver Sonic. I think we should know everything."

Maskus then said with anger, "Just listen to me!"

He started sparking and flame started coming out of his sleeves. Mecha and Silver Sonic stepped back. "Roger."

The rest of the villains left the Death Masks and spies to talk privately. Maskus took a deep breath. "So my friends, how was you mission?" asked Maskus. Selim and Taslle now have their arms folded angrily. "Is there a problem?"

Selim was the first to speak, "I really hate how evil you are."

Maskus chuckled. "Evil is such a strong word. I prefer; a master mind."

Selim pointed to Maskus and started yelling, "You think your a genius?! You had me activate the self-destruct switch in Eggman's lair. Sonic and Peter had their friends inside, they could have died!"

"Not to mention what you had me said earlier today." said Taslle. "We know how unstable that situation was. Wouldn't you even think that something might go wrong?"

Maskus pointed at Taslle. "I know what will happen exactly! Have you forgotten my knowledge of the future the prophecy tells?"

Taslle began pounding her fist "It doesn't say everything Maskus. The prophecy never mentions who the heroes exact help are, or that gap you desperate need to know. What if those poor creatures died and what if my words may cause something to you know who." She then took out her Black Cross-Over Crystal. "And don't forget your magic disturbance on this specific Cross-Over Crystal that started bringing those other people here just so you can find more villains. That last one was a demon guy with long hair. I'm surprised that he hadn't done anything."

Maskus looked around and noticed some Death Masks eave dropping. "Just trust me on this, I am the one with my full memory in tacked, unlike yours."

After hearing Maskus, she began calming down; unlike Selim. "We know that, but you are no master of time! I may have lost a good chunk of my memory, but I can still remember your last miscalculation. Do I need to remind you of that day nine years ago?"

After hearing Selim, something inside Master Maskus snapped. As fast as lighting, one of his cloth hands grew and stretch to catch Selim. As Maskus was choking him, Maskus's eyes began glowing brighter as he starred at his victim. "You don't know how weak and less minded you are." said Maskus in a psychotic voice. He then moved another cloth hand to Selim's head. "My ... and Mascasa's powers ... shall rule all." Maskus panted heavily like an angered animal.

#52 then jumped on Maskus to try and stop him. "Pleasssssssse Master Maskus, snap out of it!" #52 plead and plead but nothing was working.

Taslle decided to punch Maskus right in the face. The master let Selim go as he began calming down. "…..I… I ….am s-s-s-orry Selim."

Taslle helped Selim up. "I understand, we know each other. Just rest a while." said Selim.

Maskus sigh from what he almost did and said, "Grand Master Mascasa, your mind can do many things to people physically, and mentally."

Taslle let Selim go when he caught his breath. "Come Selim, we should leave Master Maskus to calm down. You too, #52." So the three looked back at Maskus and walked away.

"I feel sorry for him." said #52.

"Us too #52, us too."

As they leave Maskus, #52 asked, "So how your last mission went, the one with you know who?"

While Maskus was sitting down, he said to himself. "This will not last forever, the Death Masks will awaken the King and together we will make this world and every other paradise to us. Then I shall overcome my weaknesses."

Unknowingly to Maskus, his conversation with his friends was not very private. Down a hallway; all the villains Maskus recruited saw the whole fight. "That was kind-of scary." said Wario.

"I've never seen this side of Maskus before." said Silver S.

Mecha moved toward Stewie and asked, "I can see why you think he's not trustworthy, but that situation does not reveal enough. Do you have any other reason for this besides that Stella girl?"

Stewie looked at everyone and said, "I just randomly joined him for my world domination, I didn't even have a second thought about it."

Silver Sonic pondered and said, "Us too."

Wario scratched his butt. "I don't care. I want to get paid."

Silver Sonic looked at Wario. "You should pay attention. Maskus might get rid of you when he's done." Wario just shrugged and started picking his nose.

"I don't really know what to tell you guys, but it may be best that we keep an open eye on the Death Masks." said Stewie. The other villains agreed and they walked away. While walking, Wario was feeling his head. "Must be having a head ach."

Sadly for the villains, Master Maskus was not too psyched out to us his powers. "Looks like Stewie manage to have both Mecha and Silver be suspicious about me. They are very wise." Maskus got up and walked toward a wall. He chanted a spell and a square light shined on the wall. He moved his hand and drew an M and an S on the wall. The wall opened to reveal a hidden staircase. He walked down it and reached a door. He opened it, walked inside and, "Dahhhhhh." cried Maskus.

Right in front of him in his secret room was a drunk, naked Peter Griffin. "Wwwwweeeellll looks who's here; if it isn't Mr. I Don't Have Time for Your Little League Game, come here you son of a bitch."

"Peter Griffin, how and why are you here!?" cried Maskus.

Peter then tripped on Maskus and started crying. "Why don't you look at me during sex anymore?"

Outside, Maskus threw Peter out and retreated back to his secret room. When he got there, he sat on a table that had tablets on them, and on the wall, there is a carved tablet of a round object and a pointed structure. "I do know what those shards are for and those villains will not be able to do a thing about it." Maskus said to himself. "They are the key that will help start … EVERYTHING!" Maskus began laughing evilly, but his laugher slowly died down. He placed his hands together and went into this thoughts. "However, Taslle is right. I do have a gap." Maskus pulled some more tablets toward him. "My knowledge is missing details of an important event. The event that will come soon before the path of awakening Mascasa. Not even the powers of Mascasa can make this future. What is it that I have to do?"

As Maskus thought to himself, #52 came in. "I have a list of Stewie's inventions. I don't understand most of them, but I was hoping you could find any uses of them."

Maskus took the list with a short description. "My English is a little off, but I believe I can figure it out." Maskus skimmed through the list. "How does his parents not even notice these? He has tools to shrink him to the size of a disease, a machine to create copies of living things, ... he even has one to travel through time?! What sorcery is ..." Maskus stopped himself. He looked at the list and skimmed through it again as his evil laughed slowly returned.
