Almost all of the eleven members of the Council were assembled: Happy Mask, Angry Mask, Relaxed Mask, Sad Mask, Meh Mask, Drunk Mask, Strict Mask, Horny Mask, Eye Mask, and Smile Mask. Scared Mask, the leader, stepped in and sat in his place, then looked around. Happy Mask seemed sad, Sad Mask comforted him, and Angry Mask seemed to follow Scared Mask's threat. The other council members were the same as always. Frightened mask began his speech: "Gentlemen, we have found another fountain of youth." Immediately everyone looked at him. "What, where?" Happy Mask asked. Scared Mask replied, "You should know that, because the Fountain of Youth was found in Universe H-54." "But Q-08 didn't tell me about it, even though he's there," said Happy Mask. Scared Mask said, "He didn't tell us either, we learned about the Fountain of Youth through an S++ Energy Signature. Q-08 is therefore accused of high treason." Murmuring begins among the council members. Scared Mask announces that he has already sent someone to tell Q-08 the news. Angry Mask said, "The next item on the list would be that Sad Mask discovered his power. Could you go into more detail?" "Well after our last council meeting I came into contact with a knife and I found I can tame my blood," Sad Mask replied, "I can use it to make weapons and shields and so on." "Very Interesting," said Relaxed Mask. Horny Maske started to speak: "I think we should equip the Masked Guard better, since most of them don't even have powers." Meh Maske added: "I agree, the Guard is far too weak, even a blind man with cane can see that." "We should equip them with weapons of maximum destructive power," Strict Mask said. Scared Mask replied, "Your opinion on the subject of weapons is invalid, wannabe Hitler." Strict Mask fell silent, blushing under his mask. "We could start making better ones," Smile Mask began and Eye Mask finished, "weapons if you want, sir." Scared Mask waved his hand, "Anyway. Is there anything else that requires the attention of the Council?" When everyone remained silent, Scared Mask stood up and said, "Then today's rather brief Council meeting is concluded. You may go now." Everyone took off their masks and left. Only Startled Mask remained. He took off his mask and under the mask was P-78. He went into a secret elevator on the wall that only he knows about. As he entered the room at the end of the elevator, someone asked him, "You bum, what are you doing here. You've already taken everything from me." "Oh, no, I didn't even start taking anything from you," said P-78 and started laughing diabolically.
