Tales of the Multiverse Bit 213
"All I'm saying is that we've been through a lot of crap in our lives and I believe that we deserve something better!"
After six hours of cleaning the dirty office, Dexterous Pointdexter and Ragreed Forus are seen having lunch inside a cafeteria somewhere in the spaceship with Dexterous rambling with some sort of inspirational speech and for some odd reason, Ragreed is actually paying attention to him.

The story opens in a backstage office called 'S&D Office' which is located somewhere inside the Training Camp, we then see the Soldier and the Demoman playing poker on a round table with chips and cans of beers scattered around.
"Demo..." the Soldier begun, "... tryouts are coming in a couple of weeks." he pointed out, "How many yanks ya think are gonna make the cut?'' he asked while shuffling his cards.
Demoman took a swig of his whiskey, "Aye, ah don't know mate." he replied, "The training here is difficult to the point of impossible." he pointed out, "Da tryouts ain't no slouch either, so ah think a few will make it.'' he shared his thoughts.
The Soldier then noticed several people running across a hallway next to them, "Hey!" he called out, "What's going on?!'' he questioned.
Terrence Ohno turns his head to him, "A kid is causing trouble at the entrance hall!" he replied before disappearing into a corner.
The Soldier then turns to his companion, "Shall we take a look?" he suggested while getting up on his chair.
"Let's just play cards, mate." the Demoman persuaded, "Ah don't think a kid is worth our time.'' he reasoned before taking another swig of his whiskey.
The Soldier nodded in response, "Good point." he said in agreement before sitting back down.
Meanwhile at the main entrance hall of the Training Camp, we see a large crowd watching Ian Valentine swinging his crowbar around rather violently while Kevin William Dorn is trying and failing to stop his companion.
Amongst the crowd are Acacia Greene, Akane Owari, Akira Nova, Alexander "Xander" Campbell II, Akatora Tsujimiya, Batsu Ichimonji, Brent Dark, Cecilia Alcott, Chrom, Cynthia, Emilia, Emmeryn, Fistrick, Gundam Tanaka, Harley Quinn, Hikari Karibuchi, Hinata Wakaba, Ikki Kurogane, Jacques Paulsen, Johnny Bravo, Kjelle, Korriana Ramzyse, Lingyin "Rin" Huang, Lukz Ramzyse, Mail, Manila Man, Maximo, Maya Yamada, Mizuno Higeki, Naoto Takayama, Nephren Ruq Insania, Penelope von Steiner, Phila, Poison Claws Janga, Poison Ivy, Ragyou Kiryuiin, Raigree Balheart, Rinne Sonogami, Sanders Fullblaster, Stella Vermillion, Stephan Dunstan, Teba, The Creepy Guy, Trunks, Tyris Flare, Willem Kmetsch, Winston and another figure.

"I'm gonna say it again!" Ian shouted, "Where are losers from Peach Creek that joined this organization?!" he demanded, "Bring them out, so I can beat them up to pulp!" he declared.
Penelope then steps forward, "Sir!" she called out, "Unauthorized personnels are not allowed to enter this facility unless they had an appointment.'' she pointed out, "So, I'm asking you please to leave.'' she ordered with a stern voice.
"Actually..." Kevin chimed in, "... we're here to join but apparently my companion had a different agenda." he stated.
"I'm not leaving until I get my hands on those losers!" Ian exclaimed rather stubbornly.
As this is going on, Joey Hollard and Ozzy Wizner made their arrival, and joined everyone in the crowd.
"Hey, what's going on?" Ozzy asked.
Xander then turns to them, "Some very uncouth person just barges in here and demands some people that he want to beat-up." he explained in disgust, clearly not liking Ian.
"What is going on here?" a voiced demanded.
Everyone then turns to see Eddward "Double D, Edd" Marion Smith and Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke entering the area and the beanie-wearing boy caught the attention of Kevin and Ian.
"Hey, Double D." Kevin greeted.
"Greetings, Kevin." Double D greeted back, "I was expecting of you but I wasn't expecting Ian as well." he stated.
Kevin rubs the back of his head, "Sorry about that." he apologized.
Ian grinned rather sadistically, "Looks like I found the weakest member of the losers!" he declared to which angered Minna in response but managed to composed herself, "Prepare yourself, you worthless, good for nothing loser!" he beckoned, "Because I'm gonna beat you up!" he exclaimed.
"Ian..." Double D trailed, "... if this is about Marcus and Eddy's prank?" he assumed, "It's been months." pointed out, "Would you please let it go?" he beckoned, "We're already out of your life, so would you please leave us alone!" he admonished with a stern voice.
Ian swung his crowbar, "No way!" he argued, "Not until I teach you losers are lesson!" he declared with a stubborn snort, "I'm gonna humiliate you, I'm gonna make you eat dirt, I'm gonna make you kiss my feet!" he listed off, "Oh~" he coeed, "The possibilities are endless!" he mused with a manic grin.
"Ian, you should know your position not to talk to me like that.'' Double D admonished.
"Shut up!" Ian barked in response, "And what are you gonna do?" he questioned, "Scold me?" he mocked, "Hah!" he breathed out, "You're the one whom is in no position to talk!" he pointed out, "You can't do anything to me, Double Dweeb, because you're a wimp and will always be a wimp!" he insulted and as he kept on throwing insults & threats but unbeknownst to him, Taiga is seen sneaking right behind him when all of a sudden, she delivers a powerful kick between Ian's legs which lifted him up a good three feet, "OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!" he screamed out a loud soprano tone.
Kevin, alongside every males in the room, cringed at the sight as Ian fell to the floor, whimpering and twitching in pain, his eyes are wide open with tears beginning to fall.
"First things first, I am the Chief Operating Officer, a very high position." Double D shared, "Second, I am not the same person that you once knew." he furthered, "And thirdly..." he trailed, "... do you really had to do that, Miss Aisaka?'' he asked with a blank look.
Taiga shrugged her shoulders in response, "He was so noisy, so someone had to shut him up.'' she reasoned rather nonchalantly.
Suddenly, Rey Dynamic, Prince Mufasa and Ike entered the area with the former two dragging Ian outside with the latter turning to Double D, "Permission to punish this asshole, sir.'' the swordsman asked with a smirk.
"No need but since you guys already bringing him outside, so go crazy." Double D permitted with a blank look.

"Awesome!" Jacques cheered, "Virgil and the others are here!" he exclaimed.
Double D then looks around, "But I don't see King Forest around.'' he pointed out, "Where is he?'' he asked.
"I believe he is busy at the moment.'' Minna replied.
Meanwhile in a local park somewhere in Neo-City, we see Yumi Agnes and Erika Yaeger walking around the area when King Forest suddenly appeared behind a tree wearing nothing but mawashi covering his crotch, flipper on his feet, a goggles on his head along with a snorkel and a tennis racket in his right hand.
"Hey, Yumi.'' King called out in a smooth voice, "I heard you like men whom is in to sports." he recalled while swinging his racket
Erika then suddenly punches him straight on the face, "CHOOSE ONE SPORT YOU IDIOT!" she shouted in annoyance as King is sent flying into the sky while Yumi clapped her hands in awe.
"What's gonna happen to him?'' Hikari asked in concern.
Jacques crossed his arms, "He's gonna get his ass whooped." he declared with a grin.
"Nyahahahaha!" Akatora chortled, "No doubt about that!" he exclaimed in agreement.
"Keh-keh-keh!" the Creepy Guy chuckled, "This-is-going to be-a-good.'' he mused while bringing out his cam-recorder.
Kevin then performed a sign of the cross, "May the Lord have mercy on you, Ian." he expressed.
Ian then slowly got up from the ground and found himself surrounded by Oga and the rest, "Ugh... " the scum groaned loudly, "... who are you guys suppose to be?'' he asked in a mocking tone.
Gear then started the assault by punching Ian on the face, Prince the followed suit by punching Ian as well, Ezio then slugs Ian's face next, Bandeiras then bashed the back of Ian's head, Lucky then punches Ian with a right hook, Souichirou then punches Ian on the jaw, Topher punches Ian on the face and lastly, Skullomania punching Ian straight on the face.
Rin snickered at the sight, "I like how they trade blows on that guy.'' she admitted.
Gear and Joe then grabbed Ian and pushes him towards Bandeiras and Skullomania whom both delivered a kick across Ian's jaw, knocking him down to the ground as everyone cheered.
"Cool!" Korriana quipped, "I wanna piece of him.'' she exclaimed and was about to join but is held back by Lukz.
"Nope!" Lukz chastised, "You leave this to them.'' he said to which Korriana pouted in response.
Sir Dominic then steps forward while folding the sleeves of his shirt, "Sir Dominic wants a piece of him.'' Gear exclaimed and in response Topher and Joe picks Ian back-up before pushing him towards Sir Dominic whom retaliated by bashing his head hard on Ian's forehead, knocking the jock back down to the ground and the impact of Sir Dominic's headbutt was so strong that everyone felt it.
"Oh my!" Cecilia gasped in awe, "That was so strong!" she pointed out.
"He is one tough gentleman." Xander commented.
Brad then grabs Ian and pulls him up from the ground, he then delivers two kicks on Ian's mid-section before following with an elbow on his head, sending the jock crashing down the ground.
Brad then picks Ian up again, "Hey Drake!" he called out, "Do your worst!" he beckoned before pushing Ian towards the businessman.
Drake catches Ian before placing him over his shoulders and began to spin him around and around and around with no signs of stopping and everyone are cheering for him with Brent even spinning his jacket in the air.
Drake then finished his attack by handing Ian to Virgil.
Virgil let's out a grin as his body began to spark before lifting Ian up before dropping him down with a double knee backbreaker on his back and with a couple of sparks, Ian was electrocuted causing him to wiggle on the ground.
"Ouch!" Ozzy yelped, "A backbreaker and electricity is not a good combination.'' he commented.
Topher and Lucky then grabs Ian back up as Joe got into position, the two then pushes the jock forward as Joe charges towards Ian before delivering a painful running knee strike on Ian's face, knocking him back down to the ground, Ian had his eyes wide open while staring towards nowhere.
Topher and Lucky then picks him up again while Prince pulls out apouch from filled with magic powder.
Drake saw this and walked towards him, "Woah! Woah! Woah!" he hollered, "Prince!" he called out, "You promise me not to use that here in the camp grounds because it hazardous.'' he reminded.
"Come on, Drake." Prince beckoned, "Just one time." he egged, "One time." he repeated.
"Yeah!" Ezio said in agreement, "Just let him use it one time, Drake." he beckoned, "Just this once." he added.
Drake placed both hands on his hips and let's out a deep breath, "All right!" he conceded, "Fine!" he breathed out, "Just this once!" he said with everyone cheering in response.
Prince smiled before pouring the powder on his fist which began to glow blue, Topher and Lucky then pushes Ian forward as Prince delivers a straight right hook and upon impact, a blue explosion occurs which turned Ian inside out before falling down to the ground with his eyes wide as plate, drifting to nowhere while everyone cheered loudly.
"What was that?'' Joey questioned, "What the heck was that explosion?'' he added in confusion.
"I think that was some sort of dust but I can't be so sure.'' Willem thought out loud.
"Must be a something only he can use." Ozzy assumed.
The members of the Triumph Division cheered while sharing high-fives and fist bumps with some of them taunting the beaten Ian whom is sprawled across the ground.
Suddenly, a flock of crows began to appear around the grounds of the Training Camp, much to everyone's surprise.
"W-W-W-What's going on?" Cecilia stuttered in fright from the sight of the crows.
"Crows?'' Minna mused, "Could it be...'' she trailed in realization.
Suddenly, a figure arrives at the the grounds of the Training Camp in a motorcycle. The figure parked his vehicle right next to the fallen Ian, sneering at the jock before getting off the vehicle.
The figure is a young man with a tall stature, he had a muscular frame and a pale complexion, he had a dark shoulder-length curly hair, he had dark-colored eyes with dark eye shadows and black lips. He wears a black long coat over a black top with metal straps wrapped around his chest, black leather pants with chains attached to his right pocket, black boots and black fingerless gloves. This is Eric Draven.

Crow then turns to Oga, "Can I get my hands on this punk?'' he requested.
Oga nodded in response before gesturing his hand towards Ian, "Feel free to do so.'' he beckoned.
"Dyaabu!" Baby Bel chimed in in agreement.
Crow grinned in response before walking towards Ian, he then picks him up before putting the jock in a an inverted facelock to the jock, he then fell backward driving the back of Ian's head into the ground, knocking him out completely.
Crow then stood up and looks at Ian with a finger pointed at his face, "Know your place, kid!" the man clad in black warned before walking all over him while everyone began to cheer.
"My goodness, they showed no mercy...'' Hikari muttered in shock.
"He was a jerk, so he totally deserves getting beat up by them.'' Jacques commented.
Double D then claps his hands, "All right everyone, everything is over, you can all go now.'' he advised before everyone began to leave one by one with Penelope leading Kevin back to the reception area while Mikan Tsumiki attended the badly-beaten Ian.
Eric then walked towards Double D, "Sup, D." he greeted.
"Welcome back, Mister Draven.'' Double D greted back, "Your mission has taken a lot longer than expected." he pointed out.
Eric nodded in response, "It did." he confirmed, "But I managed to finish it." he stated with a grin.
Double D smiled in response, "And we appreciate your hard work." he expressed in gratitude.
