"You killed my friend!"
—The Little Train That Could, Major Payne

----------------------------------------------

The Baron

     When AllFall was inside and told to be seated the soldier switched Delirious with Eddie Murphy to the MyDarkside profile of the Dragoons and pressed one. The screen flickered and then showed the Dragoon insignia glinting from out of the dark screen and then showed a super villain.

     The villain was like a cross between Deadpool and Deathstroke with a beret and special helmet enhancement like night vision, thermal, and his other DarkTube camera. On his hands were gauntlets with guns, grapples, and sword attachments on them. On his back was a black cape probably hiding his power core or rear sensors so that he has eyes in the back of his head. He spoke saying,

     "Good day, my agent ID is," he rattled off a list of numbers and letters for fifteen seconds, "aka and my fans call me this, DeadLead."

     He let that set a moment, like most villains do, like their name alone will strike fear into the world.

     "As it turns out..." he said, "this is a video petitioning the Council to send reinforcements; the target had caught on to Magmantis' betrayal and killed all my men. Operation Set Up is still go however."

     He pointed at the screen with his index, thumbs up,

     "Now for the fun part!" He began typing something and as he did that the Dragoon insignia loaded in during the wait times. Then what slapped me like nobody's business was on the screen. It was unimportant data: the date, time, and place. Only a bold villain would show off his position and the screen showed the crosshairs on my friends face: AoDD.

      Sarah exclaimed 'Teddy!' But everyone shushed her as the sniper gave its diagnosis:

     "Winds are high, it's raining, and I spy three miles away a Baron and sidekick."

     We all waited and had seen his position, and Alien began searching for it,

     "The weather is bad but I got this."

     Two shots were fired in one second and then twelve seconds later we're getting shot in the head. The rest was history but in a first person shooter...

Elizabeth aka AllFall

     Thank God they didn't catch me jumping off the mansion. The film ended and the lights came back on. No one said anything for a long moment. A Dragoon, three miles away? Hit two people in the face with bad weather? That's-

     My thoughts were interrupted when the Baron slung his chair overhead, screaming in rage, throwing it into the twenty-thousand dollar flatscreen. He did it so suddenly that everyone jumped(, except Waya,) and hit the TV with such force that the chair went THROUGH the TV and weakly embedded itself into the wall before falling down.

     He stormed out and the last reminder of his presence was the door slam and the TV sparking away in the silence.
