Pseudo laughed. He was alone in the masssive, round chamber, with only his brandy snifter and a few broad cast screens as company. He deftly turned as Vaurix, Anubarik, and Necronimus stolled in. "Ah, welcome, gentlemen!" He beamed. "You have my little toys, eh? How long did it take you to level the twins, flora and fauna?" Necronimus chuckled. "Two minutes, fifty eight seconds, Sir." he remarked. "One minute, thirty nine seconds." Added Anubarik, not to be outdone. "Forty four seconds." Responded Vaurix as he and the others handed over their generators. "Good, good. All goes according to plan." Pseido snickered.

NM was missing home more than ever. He had wandered the belly of the ganinthor for over and hour, not enountering more than a few protoss and a few yoshies. "Man oh man, how jo's burgers are lookin good now!" All of a sudden, there it was. A Rip hole. Now, though CR was quite dilligent the rip was ever creating holes here and there. This was on of them. NM blinked, then slowly wandered in. "I realize Tex has some mission here, but I Can't stand to be away from Kazi if the answer arises! I'm outta this alien fest!"
------------------------------------------------------------
Pseudo turned as the rip opened behind him. NM Hopped out slowly. Quickly the little monster realized where he was. "Holy frejoles!!" He exclaimed befire Sir Havering could get a word in. With blinding speed, NM was airborne. The little monster leapfroged off of Pseudo's helmet. "KILL IT!!!" Havering shrieked as he turned his helmet the right way. NM sored through the halls like a pro runner. That is, until he ran smack into someone. "Tex??" NM questioned in amazement. Multex sighed and lunged for his companion. NM easily clared the Agent and tore off down the passage. He practicly leapt into the rip as it reappeared. Just at that moment, Ratch arrived on the scene. Having handed over his generator, he leapt ino the vortex.
NM tumbled to the ground. Trees, dirt, immediately he knew he was back in the forest. Getting to his feet, he plowed off. Right then, Ratch landed in the clearing. Like a chargin bull. "NOTHING STOPS ME WHEN THE PREY IS FRESH!!!" Hhe bellowed before taking off. NM plowed head first into Artemis. Quickly he apologized. "Look, sorry about the accident lady, but my buddy is workin for public enemy numero uno!!!! I can't talk now; bein chased!"
With that, NM ran off. Right as he did, an enraged Ratch broke the foliage and charged after the monster.
------------------------------------------------------------
Multex slowly walked into the chamber. "You wanted to see me?" He spoke to Havering, mentally cursing him out. "Ah yes, loyal terrier, I did." Havering smiled, turning. "Let these fools try to stop my Infects, I could use a good laugh." Pseudo mused. Pseudo looked Multex over than finally spoke. "Though now, I truly have earned the moniker 'King of the Villians', I have my eye on something else. You know where he sleeps, I want him on my side; you'll lead me to him." Havering deftly waved the hand not occupied with a snifter. "I want Pyrak to join my ranks." Multex was floored. Pyrak was the third villan he had ever collared, an android, and built using reactor technology. Indeed, Pyrak was the villan you couldn't kill. You see, Pyrak was built with an unstable reactor; meaning he'd go up like a super nuke upon termination. Pyrak also contolled Hellfire- the flame that could only be extinguighed by holy water. Multex had only won because he and Omega had sealed the maniac in a volcano. Reluctantly the agent replied. "Fine. I'll take you to him..."
------------------------------------------------------------
The volcano was HOT. Because of it's unique prisioner, the volcano hadn't beeen given the shot to die. As Pseudo and Multex stood on the edge, Pseudo jeered. "You placed the master of fire in a volcano?? How mundane; break him out now." Pseudo commanded. Multex drew the quicksilver and closed one eye. The flames leapt in their endless dance. Multex pulled the trigger. With a bang, laserfire struck a mass of hardened lava head on. Slowly the lava cracked open. Light shone from the inferno. A red android with one arm and one leg leapt from the depths and landed on the ledge. "WOW! That stung a bit!" It marvled. Immeditely on sight of the android, multex played his trump. "Alpha armor, activate!" He roared. Immediately, the chip in his systems heard and went to work. The agent's flesh shredded and he gave off a metallic luster from his flair-like fingers and his metal body. "Well, boys and girls, heeeeeeere's Metallic Multex!" Multex blared in a more tinny and sinister tone. The android leapt acid with a blast of its thrusters as Multex lunged to break its neck. "Unh unh unh, can't sacrifice speed for attack power with me, spanky!" Pyrak snickered as he slammed the back of one hand into the Agents skull. Multex rolled and leapt a second time, catching nothing but air.
"Come on, junior! Lose the metallic look and hit me!" Pyrak lauged as he slammed a boot into the Agents back. Multex flipped to his feet amd extended the missle racks on his shoulders. In the blink of an eye, a volley of missles was headed Pyraks way. The android blew a kiss before taking to the air. The missles smacked into nothing but ground. Pyrak glanced at his missing arm and chuckled at some missing hardened lava. "Uh oh! Looks like the senior robo is gonna blow!" Even as the murderous Metallic Multex, the Agent knew Pyrak was right. With an exclimation Multex stood at attention and Pseudo stpped forward. "Heir Pyrak." Pseudo simply addresed the landing robot. "Yeah? Who the hell are you and what the hell do you want?" Pyrak asked. Pseudo bowed low. "I am the privelaged Sir Pseudo Havering of the seventh circle of Whyr-Rhoh-Tin, and I have a proposition for you." "Go ahead, I'm Listening, Havey." It took a lot of restraint for Pseudo not to strangle Pyrak with the Noch Thlat. "I'll repair you if you will join my army."
"Only if you Fix me up, ya b******." Pseudo grinned a toothy smile and extended a hand. "Anything as long as you join, Sir." Pyrak snickered and shook hands. "Anything for a free fix up, Havey."
------------------------------------------------------------
Pyrak felt pain like he never had before. The IGS whirred as it did its job to the new specemin. With a dull hiss the IGS doors slid open. Pyrak lifed his head and his eyes came to life. He steped into the cool air, plated in new armor, sporting a pair of wings that became an odd rofle, flexing the muscles in his new arm and leg. He smirked at Pseudo. "Who's the job, Master?" He spoke.
