"Please let him be in a good mood. Please let him be in a good mood," a lowly villain mutters to himself as he makes his way across the cold, empty field to the warehouse on the other side.
"I-I'm here to meet with our Lord," he says as the guards stop him. "He should be expecting me." The guards nod and allow him to enter. The villain swallows hard once he enters and several pairs of eyes turn towards him. He slowly walks past all of the figures until a blue and black lion hops down from the crates on the other end.
"You're late, Rox," he growled, getting up in his face.
"I-I'm sorry," Rox panics. "It t-took longer than e-expected.."
"Gleam Eyes!" The lion turned his head to glance at the black and red dragon sitting on the crate behind him. "Stand down. Our master will deal with him." Gleam Eyes glances back at Rox and gives him a sharp glare before jumping back up onto the crate and turning into his human form.
"My my," a young, slender male walks to the edge of the highest crate. "You really have Lux riled up, don't you Rox?" He stood there with one hand on his hip in order to keep his fur-lined coat from falling off.
"My Lord, Judas," Rox drops to his knees and bows. "I'm sorry, but I was unable to convince Mystery Sound to rejoin our cause."
"I see," Judas looked down at the villain, his right eye glowing red. "So, he's just given up?"
"Y-yes, my Lord," Rox replied.
"Hmm.." Judas glanced down at Gleam Eyes and saw the dark-haired villain poised and ready to strike. "Well that is quite a shame. If only he could have told me himself." Judas snapped his fingers and Gleam Eyes pounced, transforming into his lion form. He bared his fangs and struck Rox.

Crunch!
Fangs met steel as Gleam Eyes bit down into the camouflaged device on Rox's back. As he destroyed it, Rox was turned into a black-haired male with ripped clothes and lots of piercings.
"Rather than pretending to be one of my fallen angels," Judas narrowed his eyes.
"I see nothing can fool you as always, Judas," Mystery Sound stood up and locked eyes with the leader. "I was simply testing you."
"And a clever one, I will admit," Judas complimented. "However, I had already recieved word that Rox had been slain, so your illusion wasn't going to work to begin with."
"Ah, well," he shrugged. "At least I tried."
"And I commend you for that," the smaller male replied. "But the question is: Do you still want to abandon our cause?" Gleam Eyes started circling the edgy villain. "And I suggest you choose your words carefully. Lux is itching to bite into some flesh."
"I'm fully aware," the sound villain watched the circling lion as it glared daggers into him. "And, I will continue to support you, my Lord."
"Oh?" Judas raises an eyebrow.
"I was unsure of your tactics," he continues. "But now I see that it will bring about the fall of all of UA High, not just Eraserhead." A dark smile forms on his face. "And there's nothing better that I'd like to see." Judas grins as he makes his way down the crates and walks up to the villain.
"Then allow me to be the first to personally welcome you back to the choir, Sousa."
