Snippet #2326213

It was such a marvelous day in the Evil Forest of Ooo. The 'king of the shadows' as he called himself had nothing better to do than wander through the 'dreaded' forest. To Riddle, the Evil Forest was perhaps the best place in all of Ooo. There was nothing more fun than scaring the haunted trees, signs, zombies, and other monsters that attempted to scare him. Their faces of fear filled him with the greatest of pleasure. He knew that once his master plan took effect and he ruled all of Ooo, he'd be able to see more and more of those faces.

Suddenly, a ringing sound could be heard from the red holo-pendant on his neck. Sighing with frustration, he lifted the crystal and shook it, seeing Inferno's face in the red hologram that had appeared before him.

"What could you possibly want? Why aren't you doing what you're supposed to?" he said, his booming voice filling the forest.
"My lord, a girl and her lamb defied your power. I warned them, but they didn't listen."
After a moment of silence, the cold-hearted creature burst out laughing, as if his companion had told him a hysterical joke.
"Are you telling me that you got beaten up by an incompetent little girl and a stupid sheep? What are you, weak?"
"No my lord, you don't understand. The girl is stronger than you think. And the sheep...the sheep can transform into a why-wolf..."

Riddle's look of arrogance was replaced by slight shock, as if he knew one of the people Inferno was talking about. Still, he was not in the slightest worried. Inferno wasn't the best companion a future ruler of Ooo could have.
"I see....can you track them?"
"Yes, my lord, i can. I'm sending the data to you now..."
All of a sudden, the fire-wolf's face was replaced by a map of Ooo. A bright dot flickered on and off to show the duo's location. The dot was located to the south-east of the Ice Kingdom. Riddle cracked his mouth into a terrifying grin, exposing his sharp fang-like teeth.
"Alright," the dark creature said, "I'll see what i can do. They're only a couple of miles away from my location. Thank you for telling me this, Inferno."
"No problem, my master."

The hologram disappeared, leaving Riddle in the dark forest to himself. Focusing his anger, power, and energy into his hands, he created two giant flames. Clapping his hands, he merged the flames together, and swirled his arms in a spherical motion. The fireball he created became so intense, that he had to fly up out of the forest in order to prevent a fire. Finally, he chanted a dark spell, and released his energy out in front of him, sending the fireball across the sky like a shooting star. He revealed another creepy grin as he watched the bright flame disappear. Afterwards, he gently floated down into the shelter of the woods.

He spent the rest of the day wandering the woods, until he could feel the aura of some sort of complex creature. He peeked his yellow eyes through the darkness, seeing an adolescent human girl sitting by her lonesome. Riddle was shocked. He thought humans had been extinct for ages. Not even thinking twice, he took the moment as an opportunity to strike.

"Come closer" he whispered silently to her, using his black magic ability known as telepathy. For Riddle, it was basically mind control. The girl immediately stood up off of the rock she was perched on and started to approach him, her arm extended in his direction. "Yes...closer" he continued, his face curling up into a smirk, when suddenly a loud cry echoed through the woods. The girl must have had a strong will, because her connection with Riddle was broken, and she immediately sprinted off into the canopy.

Frustrated, Riddle floated through the woods, trying to take his mind off of the girl he could have so easily destroyed. She was lucky. Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind. Could this be the girl Inferno had talked about? Before he could determine the answer to that question, he saw something moving in the distance.

There, lost between the trees, was a rusty and red-robed robot. Riddle could only imagine what something as complex as a robot was doing in the middle of the Evil Forest. The robot looked like a hunk of junk, but to Riddle, it was extremely valuable. As they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure. Technically, robots had an upper hand against Riddle. He couldn't use telepathy against them, as they possessed no true mind or soul, just wires, batteries, and computer chips. Therefore, if he could make the robot his slave, that would be one less threat to worry about, and more technology in his hands. Then again, he could easily destroy the thing, but he would at least give it a try before burning it to ashes.

He swiftly appeared out of the bushes, circling the red-robed robot like it was his prey, and he was the predator.
"Are you lost?" he said with a malicious chuckle, "Poor robot. The Evil Forest is awfully dangerous for a thing like you. Do you need assistance? I can take you back to where you came from?"
As he levitated around his next victim, he gave another creepy smirk. He would laugh is this thing thought it was tough enough to stand its ground.
