Chapter 26: Two Stones In One World Notified

*BACK AT THE UNKNOWN WORLD*

"So you two were powerless against the others and that other me in the Puyo dimension, yes?" Razer asked Satan and Ecolo.

Razer was having a normal conversation with Satan and Ecolo after their defeat trying to capture the red stone in which it was a very long war trying to do so.

"We almost had an opportunity to leave the dimension with the stone, but if some shadowy blob didn't waste any time at all trying to figure out what power it has, we could've achieved victory once and for all." Satan explained while looking at Ecolo at a stern look.

"Y'know. I wanted to give the finishin' touch by figurin' out how the red stone works. Just to put them to sleep." Ecolo said.

"But I need the other me alive. I don't want her dead." Razer said.

"And I wouldn't put the blame on her. I would put the blame on other reinforcements that she had on her side." Satan said.

"Reinforcements, you say?" Razer asked.

"They noticed what we were doin' to the other you including her friends that were with her." Ecolo said "I, on the other hand, had to create my own friends to be on the lookout for that stone before the shenanigans started."

"But that Kaze girl just won't give up." Satan said. "She thinks she just has a high level of resilience and momentum even when we were using so many tactics to give you what you wanted."

"Did you try to call for backup?" Razer asked the duo.

"We used Arfoire, but they still managed to defeat her. I wanted to ask how she got pummeled, but I don't know where she is right now."

"She was the only dimensional person that got slapped on and smacked on. I saw Kaze and her silly friends do that back in that Suzuran City world or whatever." Ecolo said.

"Wait, how do you know that?" Satan asked Ecolo.

"Well… I was on this huge rooftop that was a few miles near the beach during Arfoire's sudden appearance earlier and I saw Kaze standin' in front of her. It appeared to be fun to watch so I had to just stay there and enjoy this."

"And you didn't try to help her?! At all?!"

"I figured she had the guts to take the stone with the robots on her side. But that was when I had to leave Suzaran to tell you that I came up with a better plan and tried to possess Arle's friends to gain more power."

"*sigh* You idiotic buffoon. You should've at least helped her out before we had to do anything else. Now we've gotta be on the lookout for that stone. Again."

"Hey, I wasn't gonna pretend I saw that witch is not even tryin'. I was thinkin' if she fails to defeat Kaze and give the stone to us, then that would've been way easier."

"Where's the stone of destruction now?" Razer asked.

"Hmm… I don't even remember where it was. Do you know where?" Satan asked Ecolo.

"Well… I did remember saying Kaze was returnin' back to this… United Kingdom Dimension if I may recall. If that's where her home is." Ecolo said.

"So she has left Primp Town back to the United Kingdom. Fair enough. It'll be a two for one for Thanos so I guess it'll be an advantage. For now." Razer said.

"Wait, you aren't mad at us?" Satan asked Razer, looking a little concerned.

"Negative. I'm not mad at you both. However, I'm going to have to dismiss you both until further notice."

"W-WHAT?!" Satan and Ecolo shouted.

"Since both of you have failed to capture the stone of destruction… Well, three if you count Arfoire, We need to let others get a chance to capture the other stones. They are already in their designated dimensions looking for the stones, so that should buy us some time. For now." Razer whispered.

"Well, can't we at least help out on the other dimensions? To help boost our momentum?" Ecolo asked.

"No, I think you guys did enough for now. I believe that your hard effort that you two had to put in tells me that you need to lay low for a little while."

"Tch! So our hard work was for nothing then." Satan said with a facepalm.

"You will get another chance, Satan. Just try to take a break for a little while until I provide you as backup for the others."

"Gah!" Satan facepalmed. "Fine, I guess there's no denying it. I was planning on going back to my castle anyways."

"Don't worry, mister. I'll figure out more ways to plot our second revenge. I'ma need a lot of time to find the most magnificent blueprint though. Please, try to trust me on this." Ecolo begged.

"Sure. Go ahead." Satan said, not looking too happy.

"*giggle* Thank you, mister! Then I'll be seeing you around! Somewhere." Ecolo said, while fleeing out of the entrance.

"I suppose I'll allow it too." Razer said. "You need to plan your revenge for not capturing the red stone for me now that the other me has escaped with the stone of destruction. Think of it as a distraction for her capturing the other stones."

"A distraction?" Satan asked.

"That way, she'll catch herself off-guard on protecting or finding the other stones. Maybe I'll think it through and find a way to steal the stones or have another villain try to steal them."

"Hm…"

…

…

…

"So what will you do if I accept your suggestion?" Satan asked.

…

…

…

"Wait."

…

…

…

"W-W do you mean, "Wait"?" Satan asked, looking confused.

"Wait. As in wait until I find something else that comes to my mind that involves this mission."

…

…

…

"*sigh* Ok. I'll be taking my leave. Let me know when something happens." Satan said as he left the laboratory.

So that leaves Razer all by herself. Razer then went to the table and clicked on her medium screen to check on the status of the other villains. Of course, one villain would mostly be in a dimension, but their designation is unknown since they are not in this world to tell where they are currently at.

"*sigh* Let's see here. Infinite's still progressing, Ganondorf's still progressing, Kurome's still progressing, The opposites from Takaoka are still progressing, Arfoire… *sigh* I hope she's still alive… I'll have Kurome pick her up. And Thanos is in the United Kingdom still progressing. That'll put Kaze in a bad situation for now. *giggle*"

"Lord Razer." A voice called out to her.

"Enter."

The doors then opened as there was one person who entered the laboratory. He looked… somewhat like a commander and a cyber soldier. How odd.

"Huh. Cerexa-Wraith. What can I do for you?" Razer asked.

"We've got good news. The barrier is now completed. And it definitely looks like a kick-ass barrier if you want to take a look at it." The guy named Cerexa-Wraith offered.

"Sure. Let's take a look." Razer said as she was shown a screen on a medium tablet.

"Yeah, so we added the five keyholes like you said. Just the way you like it. And… it's already attached to the strong invisible bubble that we've already created. So. What do you think?"

"It's very perfect. Now we don't have to worry about intruders who approach my castle. Including the other me. Excellent work, Cerexa-Wraith."

"Thanks. But, I saw Satan and Ecolo bail out. Y'all had a meeting together?"

"They have failed to capture the red stone in the Puyo dimension. They've done everything they could to hand the stone to me. They even called Arfoire for backup but still could not triumph. It bothered me a little bit to see the three run out of answers in their drubbing against the other me in the Puyo dimension."

"That frickin' sucks ass. The other you got you into rage mode, huh?"

"Well… I'm not raged because of that. It's only one stone that we've failed to capture and Thanos might have the chance to grab that and the second one in the United Kingdom. Kaze might be powerless against him so that's a plus for us."

"Damn. Thanos in the United Kingdom. Yup, "You" might be dead for sure if he encounters "you"."

"W-What? What are you talking about?"

"I meant the other you. I just had to word it better."

"Oh. That caught me off-guard for a second."

"I mean that clone is you, right?"

"Yeah, but. J-Just call her the other me for now. It wouldn't make sense if you just called her "me" but it'll sound like you are talking to me."

"*sigh* Damn you do have a point. Alright, fine."

"And to respond to what you said before that, I don't need Thanos to kill her. I need her alive. Just so that I can give her time to do her."

"But don't you want her dead? She also has a mother that protects her if you ask me."

"I know. But I still need her alive because I'm creating a secret game plan… IF! She captures all the stones before my other minions do. And this will definitely be the worst for her."

"Oh yeah? Something tells me that this secret game plan will be some badass torture session, don't you think."

"You won't know until I pull the trigger."

Both Razer and Cerexa-Wraith went silent for a minute because of Cerexa-Wraith looking at Razer like he doesn't look so sure. Razer on the other hand, then reacted that she was sure.

Razer actually meant it when she is creating a secret gameplan to make Kaze fall right in her trap if she manages to capture all six stones. This one might put Kaze in a bad situation. At least, if Razer's plan turns out successful.

"Anyway, what is the status of the five keys for the five keyholes for the bubble barrier that we're in?" Razer asked.

"65 percent. The other dimensions for the rest of the keys are yet to be determined."

"Alright, no matter. Return to me when it's all finished."

"Sure thing, Lord Razer." Cerexa-Wraith then left the laboratory after a word from Razer.

Razer was now all alone by herself. She looked like she did not know what else was up in her sleeve since she has nothing else that she can think of.

"*sigh* So the other me did well I presume." She said. "It's just only a warm up since she now knows about the stones. Oh well. Thanos might get to the stones in the United Kingdom so I guess it's not a big deal. I'll read a book in the meantime."

Razer then left the laboratory to find a book to read on her own. It's not normally what she does since she rules this castle that is yet named but in her free time, she reads just like Kaze would.

But as for Thanos, the question is, which stone is he looking for in the United Kingdom? The answer will be determined later on.

Author's Note: I was just wanting to write this chapter because there are some movies and video games that involve screen time for villains and although this reading does not have screen time, I just wanted to give Razer and the other villains screen time in order to get a better understanding of this story. So that's what I'm going to do for this story.

Yup. I know. I think this was the fastest chapter that I wrote. The last chapter I wrote was September 26th. Right now is September 28th. Almost the 29th. I think I found this one easy to write for now.

So that's all I got to say. Make sure to wash your hands at all times, stay safe at all times, and I'll see you guys in the next chapter.
