(General POV)
Location the Void of the Forsaken, Chicago
Sometime from the show, that the X-men and the League did with the memorials of Cyclops and Green Arrow respectively, and Mao left his castle and went to the city of Chicago, accompanied by browns, greens, and reds minions.
Immediately upon arriving, all the people that were rioting, and scrambling around the street, many of them baring wounds, and scars from the twisted games of the Forsaken, some of these people are veterans of the hunting, and punishment games.
Many people from various ages, genders, and race, were badly wounded from deep cuts to burns, disfigured limbs, or even lost limbs with the survival of being chased by a one of the Forsaken, making these people think twice, from entering another game, and eventually earning freedom.
Currently only twenty-seven of billions, have managed to escape the Void...the rest bodies for the monsters, and new vines that don't cross pass the borders of the city.
But still lay there menacingly, strangling multiple victims, that try to escape into the outside, in a futile attempt of searching for a exit, but that not important at the moment, the moment that Lord of the Forsaken, the monster above monsters, appeared walking through the city with swarms of minions.
Even more panic and despair, flooded through the hearts and minds of all Chicagoans, trapt in this waking nightmare, scrambling away as the minions cheered, calling out, "Run, run.", "Aww people no crush.", and much more.
This made Mao laugh, crossing his arms and walking in the center of all these minions, all that remains is for the future to summon the Blues, finishing the set of minions, but he can do so later.
In fact Mao, when he summons Bendy, Scarface, Arakune, along with his two new wives, one being a darken version of his favorite, fighting, and sadistic succubus, Morrigan Aensland, as she is considered lawful neutral.
Preferring self amusement and indulgement, over justice, but Morrigan isn't a good guy, not completely, just like Sabrewulf, Mao can summon her and make her utterly dark, and as for the other villainess Mao is going to summon, Looma Red Wind, a tetramand princess, a warrior that Ben 10 never took advantage as such a villainess, especially a beautiful and brutal one as her.
As Mao was thinking of Morrigan and Looma, he'd also thought a good monsters and creatures to add to the Forsaken's legions, obviously the Blues are next, as they're weak physically, their invaluable with their power of ressurection, a slight adjustment to be able to ressurect other creatures, and maybe make one of them in charge of ressurecting any of Lords and Wives' ressurection, should in any case they get killed.
Like the old saying goes, "Better be prepared, then sorry.", so the Blue Minions are a definite, for the upcoming summoning, apart from them, he should summon others like Silent Hill creatures, this made Mao smile, thinking of the various twisted creatures in the Silent Hill series, apart from Pyramid Head or Executioner, but to him he'll always be Pyramid Head, can be a Infernal Lord in the future.
As for his choices of Silent Hill creatures, the Nurses can prove to be useful in various ways, not only killers, but also assistants for both Vector and Sabrewulf's respective work, next the Mannequin Spiders from the second movie, a spider monster that not only has arachnid ability, but a poison that turns prey into mannequins, which can become parts of the creatures.
Also one of the newest monsters to the series, the creepy doll amalgamation from the twisted image, born from the disdain towards baring children, the Oi-omoi, their screams can be adjusted to not affect all allies, as only Silent Hill creatures were the exception, with the oi-omoi, the legion will gain a stunner.
Lastly for now, the Straightjackets, looking like flesh sack bound monster, that can spew acid, another deadly range monster, those five monsters will do for now, cause they'd arrived to where Mao wanted to go.
A rundown, and badly damaged tv-studio, that managed somehow to stay standing, during the events of Ground Zero, a while ago, the messenge that Mao is planning to send is going to sent everyone into panic, plus one more thing before entering the studio, calling the system, as a red transparent screen, appeared in front of Mao's eyes.
He then commanded the Chaos System to give him, the power to manipulate or better said puppeteer objects, and souls, [Power: Puppet Maker= 12000 CP. Do you wish to proceed?] Mao instructed the Chaos System to proceed, deducting his Chaos Point down to 802330 points.
Feeling this new power coursing through him, the literal power to bend vassal as puppets, perfect for the plan that he has now, he then turns to the minions, and starts to give them orders, a list for a big show...
Location North Chicago; Abandoned TV Studio, Main Stage Set
A hour later, inside ransacked, bloodstained room, like a stage for some random show, dusty and torn curtains, hanging from the railing on top the stage, minions scrambling around the said room.
Several random people, hanged by tied hands, with dirty sacks, wrapped around their head, these people were crying, and pleading for their lives, a brown with a long stick started smacking some shirtless bound guy, that person wails in pain, from the brown's strikes.
Mao watched everything, as the minions have scavenged all the items, and random people that he'd commanded the minions to get, these minions from reds, greens, and browns are huddled around some...corpse.
Rambling about random things, from "Not there!! Put that knife here!!", "Looks ugly, spread acid on it's face.", "Ohh, ohhh, add this sheepie wool.", and much more random crap.
Mao did order them to go crazy with the "puppet", that he'd ordered the minions to get for him, said body was of a fresh deadman, with tattered suit that the minions dressed the corpse up, and white and black stripped, grime covered pants.
A blood soaked tie, a eyeball replaced with a glass with a black button attached, while the other eye looks, utterly lifeless, knives and glass stabbed on the head and face, pins hammered on the wrists, and a hand wearing a blood stained glove with claw-tips.
Utterly twisted in many way, hardly resembling a man but a sick, macabre corpse turned puppet, Mao told the minions to back off, as he pulls out a broken Halloween mask, resembling a strap jack-o-lantern face with the area where the button-eye will be shown.
Utterly disturbing sight, and that's the point with his power, along with the hanging captives, and Mao other power over all television, and screens, he'll make the messenge even more impactful, along with inviting all the villains to finally start making moves.
Walking over the "puppet" to put on the final piece...the mask, the minions were all excited, and happy, some of them presenting the body to Mao, saying to Mao, "For you, mastah."
Mao reached down a petted a brown, making the little gremlin with a torn sweater over itself, very happy, as Mao strap the mask onto the puppet, Mao took a step back, and stretching out his right clawed gauntlet-equipped arm out, focused on his new power, as his claws, each glowed with a whisp of grey.
Like unattached wires, connecting to every limbs, nerve, and sense of the corpse, as said body started to twitch, and make snapping sound from each moving part of it, exactly like a marionette it rouse up from the ground, it spin folded on the back.
Before it straightened itself, and bow to Mao, at his mental command, then Mao mentally instructed it to speak, and a voice, a mature, deep, and unsettling sounding voice, sounded, "Hello master, I'm ready to play a game." making the puppet possess the voice of Tobin Bell, it's perfect...ready for the upcoming messenge, turning to the minions, giving them some final orders, as the show was about to start.
Location the New Earth
All around the world...all tv-screens, along with various monitors of mega-screens, cellphones, and also computers all either turn on suddenly, or anything that was playing, became static, twisted, glitching sounds, started coming from all the screens on the New Earth, at first the thought of the masses was another crash of wifi-offices, or maintainance on studios.
But then various images flashed in a brief moment, time to time through the static, from subliminal disturbance to horrible pictures of monsters, bodies, and horrified people.
It was the Forsaken again, another broadcast of global magnitude, instead of some immediate showing of the "games", that Mao and the rest of the Forsaken would play, this seems different, immediately SHIELD, ARGUS, Avengers, X-men, Team Arrow, and the League found a way to record whatever its about to play.
Then the screens and monitor finally have a clear picture, it showed a man...or what can be considered a man, in a dirty, tattered black suit, and wet, red tie, he is wearing a jack-o-lantern mask with part of mask broken off, revealing a...button eye, but was more disturbing is the bleeding knife-blades, and glass shard sticking out this...thing's head.
Slowly this man, he turned fully towards the screen, as some glitches would happen on the video-feed, and finally spoke in a deep, eerie voice, "Hello everyone...you don't me, but I know all of...you. All of you. I'm member of the Forsaken...a messenger of sort, if you will. Right now my lord, and the others are busy, and quite frankly upset." saying this made many people nervous.
But then this...thing, clarified the anxiety on everyone, "Ohh don't be scared, friends. Mao and the other are not upset at you... You. The masses. Or at the so called heroes, but instead the villain. If they can be called that, soo much havoc, despair, death, and opportunity. And no one is doing anything, why is that? Why make the heroes, have all the fun, hmm?", suddenly the picture panned out, showing eight people with sacks over their head, tied by their arms, hanging over a old stage.
This messenger, explained that the heroes have managed to claim the first clue that leads to the first Core, but instead of eliminating the evidence, and getting a head start over their enemies, they practically broadcasted that next marker is somewhere...North.
Making thing less amusing, so under the Lord Mao's wishes, a new game is about to be played, featuring many, many players, as a number of various photos started to show on screen.
From Barbara Gordon, Zoe Lawton, Alfred Pennyworth, Betty Ross, Pepper Pots, and many, many more close family, and love ones of the heroes were shown on the screen, shocking all the heroes, and some of the villains with intimate knowledge of their nemesis.
As the mask figure, spoke again, "And why show these scum behind me? Why the pictures of people, you shouldn't care about my dear friends, from the other side of law?" laughing a bit, before continuing, "Because this is the price. A advantage, and also a big mark against those that have humiliated, and destroyed you're lives. My friends, the game is simple, but I'll won't spoil the price, until a winner. But I tell you the rule of this game, and what's at stake." this thing explained, that right now things have become stale.
Heroes are having it too easy, since the Forsaken have come to shake things up, as the villains, and the secret government organizations were benefiting, and getting to brazen thinking that they can use the Forsaken, and think they'll get away this disrespectful action...unscaved.
So this game is rather simple, a competition between the two main faction of this world, good and evil, justice and lawlessness.
For two months, both side have to cause either have to cause peace, or cause utter chaos, as two bars appeared on every screen one bar states peace, the other says anarchy.
Once the two months are done, the bar with highest points win, should the heroes win the Forsaken promise peace for the New Earth for two months, all the death and destruction will stop for that time period, but the Forsaken shall be hunting down villains during that time, and a billion criminal shall be taken in random from the world, placed in a special hunt game in the Forsaken's home realm.
But should the villains win, then they win great benefits, from all the criminal loose on Chicago, since the events of the Ground Zero, will be set free back on Earth with untold amounts of money, and powerful weapon to cause untold chaos back on home, and freedom for every time that their arrested for two months, this extend to villains as well, plus a billion of random civilians are taken from the New Earth not including the people shown from before.
So the man...creature, then snapped his fingers, signaling to the minions to execute the captives, reds setting a pair on fire, the greens started stabbing another pair on their necks, over and over.
The next pair were being stab by thrown bladed objects, leaving two alive, weeping as they heard all the screaming around them, that's when the masked entity spoke, that these captives are almost all criminals, but the remaining two are innocent, that's when the curtains closed, blocking view of the captives, as the masked thing spoke, "Was that fair? Will the criminals of the world, sacrifice themselves for people that would cast you all aside to survive? Will the civilized people, sacrifice themselves for the scum of the New Earth? You all decide. Let the game, begin...ohh and for all your information, you can call me, Pincushion, your lovely host, that will update you all on the progress of this game, every twenty-four hours. So who will suffer the consequences for the other side?" laughing in excitement.
The screen close in back to the recently identified Pincushion, as he said a final messenge, directed to the villains, "You might think that, this game is beneath your level. From pride, narcissism, arrogance, and other notions...but... But let me remind you villains...your qualify as criminals too... A simple though for you all to inspire some competitiveness. So get started, the clock has just started to tick..." with that final word, the screens across the New Earth, all turned to static and in deep red, [23: 59: 59 remain for update], and then the screens and monitors reverted to normal.
As the Forsaken's messenger words, all hit hard, and immediately some criminal started rioting, shooting in public, and attacking random civilians, while police ignored the do-process and took out criminals, civilians desperately started to clean up their blocks, and more acts of crime and goodness, were happening all over the world, all afraid to lose and suffer the Forsaken's punishment.
