[ Good evening, Siren's Port. This may or may not be a familiar face, but tonight, Xigbar stands upon a rooftop, the headquarters of the Xino E. Mao Corporation in the background. He's wearing the black coat this time, as opposed to his more business-like attire, and as he begins his address, there a flames visible somewhere in the distance. ]

Good evening, Siren's Port -- or fellow Newcomers, should I say?

[ He waves a hand, and shadows start forming behind him. ]

Normally, I'd say a little something about AGI or the wonders of corporate power. [ He shrugs. ] But now? [ His smile broadens. ] I'd say it'd be a little dishonest, wouldn't you?

[ Behind him, the tower he once reigned in as CBO erupts in dark flames, and the shadows behind him materialize into a recognizable form. There's three of them, jaws snapping lightly.

Xigbar flashes a demented smile towards the camera. ]

The Darkness is upon us, friends. Let's make use of the time we have left.

[ With that, he shuts off the feed. ]

[ It IS a pretty smug face. He laughs. ]

I beg to differ, Miss Nill.

I've been 'getting away' with things for more than a decade.

[reassures]

Decades end. Your good fortune isn't going to continue.

[If she got the chance, she'd kill him herself. Though there's one thing she still wonders about.]

Was it just for AGI?

[madannoshashu]

[ Another laugh. ]

So you say, Miss Nill.

[ He knows he's on the winning side. ]

If you're asking whether it was personal, the answer would be 'no'.

[ He doesn't care one whit about the people he hurt; he has his sights on much bigger things than the petty vendetta's of the companies. ]

[reassures]

[That's the thing about the winning side. Your side might win, but it doesn't mean you survive to see it happen.]

I did not believe it was personal. We never met before your monster attacked me.

Why did you do it?
