A man stares out his window,

In front of him is his empire.

Giant red factories work all day and night their smoke covering the sky.

Long towers reach the sky with drones going in out to receive and ship cargo.

Thousands of employs working tirelessly in cubicles in trucks and in warehouses.

All of it belongs to him!

To show that everything here bares his symbol.

A red mask the same as the one covering his face.

The mask is quite simple it's all red with two black lines.

Just because that man can't show his face doesn't mean he can't have style!

He's sporting a black suit with a red tie on his back is a cape black on the outside and red on the inside.

On his head is a dashing top hat.

He would wear a monocle to complete the whole villain motif.

Sadly it will only make him look silly.

Feeling bored the man takes a remote and turns one of the many screens around his room.

The screens show drone footage.

He starts to cycle through them.

Most of the footage is from his favorite past time.

Which is watching people's suffering.

Of course, there is plenty of that in his company but sometimes you want to see something fresh!

After only finding the usual: war crimes, random murders, muggings, people getting hurt, nut shots.

He decides to switch to his favorite show.

The screen changes.

"Oh! HO HO HO HO HO! WHAT!? He turned into a little girl!?!?! HO HO HO HO! and....are those...CAT EARS!!! HO HO HO HO!"(RM)

About a year ago red mask was commissioned to create a transformation potion by one Duke Lonesun.

He spent a lot of time and resources on that potion.

Unlike magic potions that used magic to disguise someone.

This potion would change your very DNA.

It would turn you into a perfect replica of who you want to become.

It's was quite the accomplishment considering that unlike that Nerd, Red mask was more specialized in robotics. 

After receiving the payment and shipping out the potion.

It was immediately stolen by the Duke's daughter 

The Duke, of course, asked (paid)  for the potion to be found.

Red mask sent one of his detectives from the information department.

After finding the last known location 20 drones were sent out.

They fly high in the sky unnoticed.

That is when Red mask found this interesting and beautiful creature.

A complete mockery of God, Red mask's favorite type of mockery.

The creature is caring around the potion.

It has changed from its liquid form into its solid form.

All Red mask has to do is melt it to return it into its liquid state.

As Red mask was preparing to send out drones or even send Alpha to get it back.

For some reason, he decided to observe it for a little while.

What was he found was fascinating.

Just by existing, this creature proved several of Red mask's theories.

And not to mention.

This creature has brought hours of entertainment to Red Mask.

He almost can't believe that Nerd made anything that great even if it was on accident.

So a drone is flying over it 24/7 recording it's every move.

After watching the creature for a few hours he turns off the tv

Beep!

RM looks to where the sound came from.

A window hatch opens as something flies in.

"AH! Alpha! you're back!"(RM)

A robot man lands in front of RM.

The robot's design is slick making it look like power armor.

The robot's body is white with one green left eye.

On its mouth are five bars that light up when it talks.

"mission accomplished"(Alpha)

"yes good job!!!! Beta failed but I know you would come through for me!!"(RM)

RM pets Alpha metal head.

His eyes shine like he's looking at his own child.

Alpha is RM's magnum opus.

It's the last in the metal men series first starting with omega and then delta and then so on and so forth.

The reason why Alpha is the best is its ability to learn.

It can pick up any martial arts in minutes just by observing someone.

It can wield any weapon with ease but that doesn't mean that thing is not jam-packed as many lasers and guns RM could fit into it.

And we are not even going to get into how this thing powers its self 

Or how it can use plasma.

Ahhh....that's enough gushing for one day.

RM gives Alpha a couple of more pats before heading towards his office door.

Alpha bows before flying off the same window hatch.

As soon as he opens it he is greeted by a statue of himself holding the planet Loam.

It's a secret to no one that RM is trying to take over the world.

Every Red mask catalog starts and ends with this fact.

It's also not a secret that RM is evil.

That is also stated in the Red mask catalog.

There seems to be three reactions to this.

1- Complete resistance, people who call themselves heroes that do everything in their power to try and stop RM from taking over the world. 

2-Acceptance and joy, people who not only believe that RM planes are not only inevitable but welcome, they think the world will be a better place once RM is ruling it.

3-disinterest,  people who couldn't care less and only want their packages to arrive on time.

Number 3 seems to be the majority of people.

Walking out the door RM's secretary a man named Marcus calls out to him.

"AH! sir! I still haven't gotten the planes for fun day!"(Marcus)

Marcus has black hair in bowel cut, he's wearing a red and green striped sweater with beige dress pants.

Marcus struggles to hold up his glasses while holding stacks of paper.

Fun day is something the Head of HR made up.

Something to elevate the employees.

To let them relax for a little bit.

Since it's implementation it has been a resounding success.

Suicide rates of employees went down from 25% to 17%.

"oh yeah I pushed that thing to head of management check with them about it"(RM)

The head of management has always been RM's go to for throwing work he doesn't want to do.

That old elf has already lost most of his hair from this.

Marcus nods and heads towards the office building papers in hand.

As he watches Marcus go RM makes his way into the HR office.

On his way, he passes employees.

All of them stand out of his way not daring to even look at him.

After that, he passes a window.

Outside he can see some employees already enjoying their fun day.

People are handing out cotton candy for five silver coins.

The employees buy them and then quickly scarf it down before their five minutes are up.

Finally, RM makes it to HR.

In front of him is a door, next to it are posters with inspirational quotes being said by animal dangling of branches.

RM walks in.

Not nocking of course.

meeting him is a woman sitting in a desk covered in novelty desk ornaments, from little goblins in cute outfits to one of those balls on strings things every work desk has.

The head of HR and the second most powerful person in the company even if she denies that.

The woman is wearing a green power suit with a purple tie, her lips are covered in green lipstick and her purple hair is in a side ponytail.

On her neck are two pads filled with water stuck on her gilles.

Her eyes look up for one second only to go back down to her work.

Her finger glade against her work elegantly.

"can I help you with something...glub"(???)

Even her glub sounded elegant.

"any news on out missing shipment Lara?"(RM)

Lara's hand stop.

".........no...glub........are you ever going to get around to telling what exactly we are missing...glub?....Because I been having some idea and don't like them one bit....GLUB"(Lara)

Lara's last glub almost sounded threatening.

"Well I suppose if have to tell someone it might as well be you"(RM)

Lara finally looks up.

"we found traces of the demon god"(RM)

RM shrugged, saying something monumental in the tone of picking up a rock on the road.

Lara blinks on time.

"I see"(Lara)

Her response is a second late but still not missing a beat

"I will double the search effort(Lara)

"you do that"(RM)

RM walks confident that Lara won't dare let him down.

Not of fear of him.

But of complete refusal that RM will look down on her.

Sometimes she has nightmares where RM acts condescending while saying things like.

"Hey, it's not your fault!"(RM)

"You'll do better next time!"(RM)

"Don't worry if you can't handle it, I don't want to overburden you!"(RM)

She would rather die the most horrific death imaginable than ever hear that.


Somewhere public and well known.

An airtight container is sitting on top of a pillar.

Right next it is another pillar of the same kind.

On it are pair of dice.
