[POS Industries]

(OOC: Gaian Leader Guy's dialogue comes courtesy of Incendius.)

It was the Gaian General's turn to speak. "You forget option number three," he stated, trying his best to broadcast confidence, "The option that you are mostly ignorant of what is actually going on and most of the events and people of this little escapade."

The Negative Kamen stood perfectly still, allowing his adversary to speak his piece. It was only fair, after all. Whether the man's words would be taken under anything more than brief consideration was a different story.

The Gaian continued with his speech, "Number one, you actually think all of Gaia participated in this? If so you're a fool. This, where you are standing now and where this all has come from is merely one of the districts, the sub forums/boards. Truly, it is even one of the more tame ones, this little cleen up would have been very different if other parts of Gaia had participated."

He took a sip from a glass of water which sat on small table next to his command chair. "Number two, you think threats will effect me or my position. I, honestly, am safeguarded against all your attacks. Even if you think and know that you have bested one of Gaia's mods, already learn that he was merely a mod of this particular sub board/forum, and thus was low in the hierarchy. I myself am a super moderator, having domain over all the boards, though I usually stay close to this one. Also, within my access are several admin devices, which with my full knowledge of them I could easily use to at the very least banish you from Gaia. Furthermore, I have full confidence in my abilities at escaping any situation you would throw at me, even if I am not capable of taking down your little god," the general stated with a smug grin.

The Kamen grew a grin of his own, but remained silent. It was a rare treat for him to be on the receiving end of someone else's villainous monologue. Frankly, he was rather enjoying the show.

"Thirdly," the Mod continued once more, folding his hands in front of his face, "You might have seen we have already withdrawn our forces, and even halted our attack, for we are finished for now. You have destroyed a commendable amount of our undesirables, and for that we thank you. Honestly, I'm surprised you're still here and attempting to plow further through Gaia while your 'friend' is currently conveying all your companions to what shall be a very interesting encounter, of which even I am not sure of the outcome."

Almost as an afterthought he added, "I can convey you out of Gaia if you wish, I don't really think with all your services rendered to us that any ill will should be felt on our part, even the destruction of that particular mod was not unwanted in some corners."

Negative Kamen nodded as he feigned taking it all in. Whether what the Mod said was true or not was yet to be revealed by Kyuubi Pyros. Of course, what really mattered was if the man truly believed what he was saying. Either way, it was irrelevent. "I see, yes," the masked man breathed, "all very good. Still, there are some problems. The biggie is that, while I don't speak for my godly associate here, the fact is that I'm not the least bit concerned about what's happening in NPF at the moment. Either they stop Raiden, which doesn't bother me, or Raiden annihilates them, which doesn't bother me, either. For most of them, death is only temporary anyway."

The Kamen's tone grew ever colder as he spoke, "The reason I'm here is because I'm very angry with you. While this whole adventure has benefitted me greatly overall, the fact still remains that thanks to all this, the Mashirosen tower was irrepairably damaged, forcing me to destroy it. I worked long and hard on that project, and I don't like seeing it all go to waste. Lastly..."

The Kamen closed his eyes as dark energy swirled around him, enveloping the man in shadow. A moment later, he reappeared, now without the tuxedo, top hat, cape, cane, and mask. His eyes were hazel, his hair was brown, and he was casually dressed with a long black overcoat. He was now in his true form.

"...I just don't care for your tone," Pedro stated, raising his right fist and pointing at the Mod, "HEART!"

A beam of energy shot forth from the ring on POS' finger, enveloping the Gaian Mod in a warm, glowing aura. Almost immediately, the Mod's countenance changed from that of forced arrogance to an expression of pure kindness.

As the light around him faded away, the Moderator blinked confusedly for a moment before looking back up toward Pyros and Pedro. "What.... whatever was I thinking?" he asked, smiling happily, "I've made a terrible mistake and I insist that I make amends. What can I do for you? Anything, just name it!"

Yes, this was much better.
