In the lair of Scar the conqueror. The evil warlord sat on his throne and continued his next plot… binging his favorite TV show on Galacta-Flix.
"Yeah Lukeas! Take him out, you know that jerk Roden deserves it!" He cheered as his show came to a close. "Oh man I love happy endings, but wait… ooh… looks like Deven's plotting revenge!" He then sat up and turned around. "Ah… another season of, Of Might and Titans comes to a close! Can't wait for season three!" "Sir, can we come out now?" Scar sighed in frustration, he forgot about that. "Yes…." Soon his minions emerged from the closet and reunited with their boss.
"Now what makes you sure they're gonna make a season three sir?" Drone one asked. "Because of an agreement between me and the creators, Mayer Brothers studios!" Scar answered proudly. "He threatened the CEO of the studio's family." Splitbomber explained bluntly. "If they didn't let his favorite shows finish their story he would nuke their house with them in it." "True, and look what happened, they've never been better!" Scar said proudly before Drone one's arm band buzzed. "Let's see… uh oh…." "What are they renewing it or what?" "You might want to see for yourself."
A few hours later the whole ship shook thanks to Scar's rage as he blasted everything in his wake. "CANCEL MY FAVORITE SHOW! WILL THEY!?" He roared as he tossed his drone across the room and into the wall. "I LET THEM BECOME ONE OF BIGGEST STUDIOS IN THE GALAXY AND THEY THINK THEY CAN JUST DO WHATEVER THE HELL THEY FEEL LIKE! I DON'T THINK SO!" Scar then sat on his throne and pointed towards the area. "SET A COURSE FOR PLANET HOLLYREN! WE'RE GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS!"
The ship immediately blasted towards its destination, a large green and tan planet with an asteroid belt shaped like a film reel. Soon they descended onto the planet, specifically at Mayer Brothers studios. "Oh Roman, you have a lot of explaining to do…." Scar growled as he and his minions went towards the studio.
Soon they arrived and busted through the doors, and marched through the studio, stole a tour bus and drove through the studio and reached the main studio building. "Sir, maybe you should calm down, we can probably find a new show for you to watch!" Drone one said frightened. "No way, I'm reminding this backstabbing prick exactly his obligations!" Scar growled as he reached the CEO's office. "If they try anything drastic. Nuke the studio from orbit!"
Scar then busted the door open and stood in the office. "Alright, Roman you better have a good excuse as to why you…" Scar's eyes widened as it appeared that the man he was looking for was someone else entirely. "You're not Roman deranx." "And you must be Scar!" The being made of coins answered. "Roman told me about you, secil, Ivan secil." "And where is that camera headed crybaby?" Scar demanded. "Oh he had to retire, said something about constantly living in fear from you, so I'm happy to replace him." Ivan explained. "Well, since that coward ran away, care to explain to me why you idiots canceled my show, Of Might and Titans?" "Oh, well now that I'm CEO, I decided to start with a clean slate and sadly I didn't care for that show, so I canceled it!"
Scar growled as he charged forward to Ivan. "N-Now now, Roman told me that you would be like that, so I made my staff develop a new show, which I'm sure you will enjoy very much!" Ivan then gestured Scar and his minions into his office where he showed them the newest show.
A few minutes later the first episode ended. "So what do you think?" Ivan asked while his audience was slack jawed in disbelief. "That was the worst thing I ever saw in my entire life…." Scar gasped. "Sure that's what they all say, but I'm sure they would change their minds." Ivan said confidently. "Couldn't you just bring back Of Might and Titans, that would sound like a great decision!" "Oh no, I sold the rights to it to another company!" Scar immediately rose to his feet and marched forward…
A few minutes later Ivan was hanging over Scar's smelting pit begging for mercy only to be dunked in and had the remains of his skull pulled out.
Scar returned to the deck, activated his arm hologram and opened the door to his traitor wall, which he hung the remains of Ivan Secil on it before putting it away. "Well my day is officially ruined." Scar groaned. With his favorite show gone, he's basically lost one of his best means of entertainment. "Cmom boss, maybe we can find you a new show you'll like! Maybe one from Bizney!" Driller said reassuringly. "ABSOLUTELY NOT! THOSE LOSERS HAVE NO VISION!" Scar argued before slumping in his throne. "C'mon boss, you don't need a show to keep you going." Splitbomber complained. "I know but what am I supposed to have to entertain myself huh?" The warlord grumbled, "Maybe you can watch famous Startubers on the stellarnet!" Drone one suggested. "I follow this one guy who makes these incredible challenge videos. Like this one 'who can make the best speech while in their underwear? (Shocking ending!)". "If I wanted to watch people humiliate themselves I'd watch reality TV, or political news!" Scar argued. "Well you're gonna have to entertain yourself somehow!" Splitbomber called out. "It's not like you can just make your own TV show!"
That's when Scar got an idea. "Lightbulb…." He then got up and walked away. "We're heading back to Hollyren boys!" "Wait, I didn't mean you actually could make your own TV show!" Splitbomber called out. "Too late already got the idea planted, Great job Splitbomber!" Scar said nonchalantly. "Yeah great idea Splitbomber!" Drone one added. "Do not! Do not enable him!" Splitbomber threatened.
Back on the planet, Scar arrived at the CEO office and took his seat as the new CEO of the studio. "Sir I'm not sure that this is gonna work!" Splitbomber said worriedly. "Please it can't be that bad!" The warlord said confidently. "That's what you said the last time when you took on the governor position on exozike 12!" "It wasn't that bad." "You got the whole planet to nuke itself over a single post on void-book!" "Look, I learned my lesson there and I know what to do!" Scar immediately put on a director's hat and stood up. "Now let's get to filming!"
Soon after they began filming their new show with Drone one and Driller playing their roles. "Alright you bolt headed buffoons, in this scene you battle a giant dragon that has just burned down your city, now roar at the dragon like barbarians!" "Where's the dragon sir?" Drone one asked. Scar answered by snapping his fingers and two drones arrived dressed in a two piece dragon costume, they struggled inside the costume as they tried to roar. "C'mon you steel simpletons! Higher! Like a bargonian snaggle beast!" Scar yelled. The two robots roared as loud as they could before a cracking sound came out. "Uh boss, I think their voice boxes shortened out." Driller pointed out. "Of for the love of… take 5!" Scar announced. "I thought we were on take 3." Drone one said confused. "AS IN A 5 MINUTE BREAK!"
Later on they were outside as they filmed the next scene as the camera rolled Splitbomber in a knight outfit. "Boss, can we adjust this thing?" He asked. "This armor feels like I'm wearing a metal straight jacket!" "Nonsense! I didn't go through the trouble of having my drones steal that armor from a museum just for you to complain about it!" Scar argued. "Wait, you stole it from a museum!?" "I wanted it to be authentic! Now action!" Splitbomber then raised his arms and said his lines. "Hark! I am a fearless knight who traveled through a… paradox wormhole…? Oh for the love of!" Splitbomber groaned at the sight of the prompter. "But I will not rest until I return to my original time— GAH!" Splitbomber then tripped over on a wire and fell to his face. "CUT!" Scar announced. "Will you two please stop leaving cables everywhere!?" Scar yelled at his technical crew, Drone one and Driller. "I thought you covered it up!" Drone one asked his friend. "I thought you did!" Driller argued. The two looked at their boss in embarrassment before he banged his head against the script.
The next few shots weren't much help either, from the camera running out of battery during filming, to the costumes being torn and taking hours to stitch back together, to some fire related accidents on set.
A few weeks later, they were on their break. Scar kept trying to make his new show better, however he was interrupted by his minions entering the room. "Sir don't you think you're taking this a little too far?" Done One asked before they saw the giant conspiracy style board on the wall and their boss turning around with a loud crack, startling them. "Uh sir… when was the last time you entered sleep mode?" Splitbomber asked, frightened. "I DON'T KNOW TWO THREE WEEKS MAYBE!?" Scar yelled before grabbing a nearby cup and slurping it. "Sir there's nothing in that cup." Drone One pointed out, frightened.
"OF COURSE THAT'S IT!" Scar yelled at the top of his lungs, startling them. "Uh… what's it sir?" Scar immediately raced forward for his grand idea. "EVERYONE BACK ON THE SHIP! THIS WILL BE THE GREATEST SCENE IN CINEMA HISTORY!"
Soon after they were on a volcano planet where they were filming the final scene, as Scar was directing, Drone one and driller were on camera and lighting tech, Splitbomber was in acting, still in his knight costume and behind him was a raggedy old bridge. "Lord Scar, this is insane!" He called out. "QUIET! Now in this climactic scene, you will cross the inferno bridge and face the dragon as it emerges from the scorching hot lava and roars into the heavens!" Scar explained. "Boss I am not risking my life so you can film your psychotic show!" "Do as the script says AND THAT'S AN ORDER!" Splitbomber immediately turned around and steadily stepped onto the bridge, being extremely careful as to not cause it to fall apart and collapse into the scorching hot magma underneath. "The things I do for this empire…." He grumbled as Drone One kept filming who gave a thumbs up in confidence.
Soon after he crossed the bridge just before he slipped and caused a small rock to fall into the lava. "Are we done now sir?" Splitbomber asked. "Not yet, we still need to get to the highest peak of the volcano!" Scar announced. "Sir, that's insane!" Splitbomber argued. "Just get moving!" Scar announced as he took a sip of his oil coffee only to spit it out. "This is synthetic motor oil! I asked for conventional!" He yelled before throwing the cup away, but as it descended and landed near a cave, the clacking sound awakened something that wasn't very happy….
At the top of the volcano, Splitbomber was hastily looking at the molten lava bubbling like a giant stew. "I can't believe I'm gonna do this…." Splitbomber said before he began his lines. "Oh inferno dragon, beast of the volcano! I call upon you from the depths of the fiery abyss! Awaken now and face me!" Once he stopped, Splitbomber turned to his boss. "Alright what now?" "Wait for the dragon to appear, it may take a bit, apparently they didn't get the memo about using oil changes once a month." Scar explained.
A few minutes later the volcano began to bubble and shake. "Uh boss, this wouldn't happen to be an active volcano would it?" Splitbomber said, frightened. But soon his answer came in the form of something emerging from the volcano, they looked upwards and saw to their shock, a large flying beast landing onto the rim. It was a large dragon made of fiery magma and molten claws and flaming wings. "Hah! My dragon's arrived! Alright boys, action!" Scar called out as the camera rolled.
The dragon blew forth a flurry of scorching fire from its mouth, causing Splitbomber to swiftly dodge it; he immediately grabbed the dragon's tail as it shook him around like a doll. "Yeah now we're talking!" Scar called out. "I love how you remade the costume!" "Uh boss! I don't think this is a costume!" Splitbomber said as he slammed into the ground, the dragon immediately threw its enemy into the air and grabbed it with its massive jaws.
"This is gonna be cinematic history!" Scar said excitedly before he heard the voice that caught their attention, he turned around to see his drones dressed in the dragon costume. "Sorry we're late sir, we had a hard time getting through here!" They explained, leaving the crew shocked. "That's a real dragon!" Drone one called out. "Get him out of here!" Scar called out as they charged at the beast, while one drone grabbed the camera.
Splitbomber continued to struggle whilst bound by the dragon's jaws. "I hope I still have a severance package after this!" He yelped before the beast was blasted in the back, causing it to drop its victim. "Try and freeze it!" Scar called out as he and the others blasted at the dragon. Splitbomber immediately blasted his ice cannon and froze the dragon, they sighed in relief but it was short lived as the dragon burst free and unleashed another fire blast.
They immediately dodged the flames as the beast roared in fury. "Quick, fire into the volcano!" "Are you nuts!?" "Just do it!" The three immediately blasted into the volcano, the combined force of it caused it to rumble, leaving the beast startled. "Let's get moving now!" The crew immediately raced away as the volcano finally erupted causing the dragon to be flung back into the lava where it fell back to sleep.
The group was able to surf onto the magma, via a rock, they swayed left and right, dodging the various burning obstacles in the way, until they were came across a ramp, they held onto each other as they roared away and flew into the smoldering sky and crashed right into the ship.
Once they recovered, Scar and his crew found themselves recovering from the major damage. "Ugh, sorry boys, I guess I was trying to recreate the magic that my show gave me I went overboard." Scar apologized. "Oh really? We didn't notice!" Splitbomber growled as he continued to repair himself from the dragon's damage. "And now we have no way of releasing our little film!" "Actually one of the drones came back with this!" Driller said as he pulled out the camera. "Uh, does that mean…?" "It shot everything! We have a film!" Everyone except Splitbomber cheered. "Hooray…." He groaned.
Later on, they showed their film to everyone in the galaxy… unfortunately the reviews were less than stellar, calling their work a 'Piece of disgraceful art' and 'no way a supervillain could ever make anything good'.
"Well, guess making a film's harder than I thought…." Scar said disappointed. "Should we blow up the critics sir?" Drone one asked. "No, I think it's time to lay it to rest…."
Soon after they aimed their laser cannons at the studio and fired, destroying Mayer Brothers studios for good. "You know boys… there's a lesson to be learned from this." Scar pointed out. "What's that boss?" Driller asked. "You can be a supervillain or a filmmaker but you can't be both…." They watched as the studio burned to the ground. "You are at rest now, old friend." Scar said somberly.
"What's to say we check out a new studio, sir?" Drone one asked, making his master smile under the mask. "I'd like that."
"Wait, why couldn't we just fly out when the volcano erupted?" "Driller, don't ruin the moment."
