Mephiles: (appears in front of Ruby) Are you lost, little girl? (Kicks her to her friends as Iron Guard comes up behind them and raises his sword in warning) What are you all doing?
Kat: (bravely) We're going back to our parents, Mephiles!
Mephiles: (faking sympathy) But they don't want you anymore!
Kat: Lier!
Mephiles: (while cocking his head) Is it, though? Tell me, Kat, if your Daddy loved you so much, why did he leave you and your bodyguard to do what all? Speaking of her...
(Flame enters the scene, dragging Beatrice with him, her wings visibly burned)
Kat: (gasps) FEY!
Bea: (coughs) Forgive me, Miss, but they finally did it... They broke me...
Mephiles: You think you're so special? You're a teenager now, you were made to be forgotten! (Sees forgetting fog forming below) Hmph, I did it again. Now I need new allies for my cause, and you need to avoid that fog. Come back to me, girls, join my Church again.
Emerald: (shouting) This isn't a Church, it's a cult! You're a lier and a tyrant, and I'd rather be forgotten forever than join any "Church" of yours!!!!
Sapphire: Emerald's right! Authority should come from the consent of the governed, not the threat of force!
Mephiles: (shrugs) If that's what you choose... Iron Guard?
I.G: Yes, Lord Mephiles. (Marches closer to Kat, Crystal, Emily, Bea, Jade, Emerald, Ruby and Sapphire, his sword drawn, forcing the girls forward)
Dalton: (runs up to Mephiles) Dad, please don't do this! Emily's my friend!
Mephiles: She's a robot, Dalt! Robots are easy to replace!
Dalton: (shakes his head) I disagree!
Mephiles: (growls) Fine! (Picks him up with dark magic) Then why don't you JOIN (throws Dalton to the girls) her???!!!!
Emily: (helps Dalton to his feet) Are you ok, Dalton?
Dalton: (rubs Emily's head) I'm fine, Emma. (To all of Mephiles' minions) Listen up, everyone! The Guinevere Foundation can be super cool if we all treated everyone fairly! (Points at Mephiles) It's my dad!!! He made us build a pyramid, then placed himself atop!!!!!!
Mephiles: (while glaring at Dalton) Just like your cousin. (To Shade, Scourge, Flame, I.G, Junko and Mukuro) Anyone else agree with Dalton?
All: ...
Mephiles: (to Dalton and the girls) I didn't throw you away, your parents did! No parent ever loves their offspring after the age of five, chew on that when you're forgotten! (Starts to walk away)
Crystal: (calls) Wait, what about Solaris and Anastasia?!?!
Mephiles: (stops, his fists clenched) I don't know what you're talking about.
Crystal: Anastasia and Solaris, your parents, they treated you well, yes?
Mephiles: (turns back around, his eyes burning) Yes, but then they kicked me out!
Crystal: No, you ran away!!!!!
Mephiles: (stomps) They REPLACED me with a girl before that!!!!!!!!
Crystal: (stomps) Aleena was a baby and they were busy!!!!!!!!
Kat: But, if you couldn't have them, nobody could!!!!!! (Pulls out a dark red music box) You LIED to Shade and have been lying ever since!!!!!!!
Shade: (gasps)
Mephiles: (thinking) I thought I destroyed that! (Out loud) Where, the fuck, did you get that?
Kat: It doesn't matter, your parents loved you, Mephiles, as much as any parent ever loved a child! (Gives the music box to Shade)
Shade: (opens the music box and smiles at the familiar melody) Dad...
Mephiles: (snatches and closes the music box) WHAT?! You want your father back?! He NEVER loved you!! Don't be such a BABY!!! (Throws the music box onto the floor, breaking it again) Iron Guard, push them ALL in!!!!!!
I.G: (hesitates)
Mephiles: (grabs Shade forcefully by the dress) This is what happens when idiots like you try to think! (Drops Shade) We're all just annoyances, made to be kicked out!!!!!! That's all a child is and WILL always be!!!!!!!!
Shade: (pushes Mephiles into the fog)
