It took one more hour, but Ryanâs side eventually won the Meta-Gangâs civil war. Though one-sided slaughter might have been a better term.
Psyshockâs thralls had continued fighting even without the squid, but they were no match for the terrible host assembled before them. Unfortunately, while Ryan reined in the violence whenever he could, neither the plushies nor the Meta showed any mercy. Even if they were brainwashed tools, anyone fighting back was fair game. Only the Black Elixir had shown some restraint, as it didnât finish off the wounded once they were no longer a threat to it.
It said something about plushies and mutants when a giant monstrous slime looked more merciful in comparison.
But in the end, once the dust settled down, the bunker belonged to Ryan.
âI know the transition from the previous administration has been difficult.â Standing atop Mechronâs mech with his hands behind his back, the courier looked over his audience of Psychos, orphaned children, plushies, and one slimy abomination. Though Psyshock did get rid of Ryanâs suit, he had found a black turtleneck and pants to wear. âThe summary executions, the waterboarding sessions⦠but itâs all in the past now. For we successfully purged the leftist menace from our ranks!â
âNow, it is time to focus on the true enemy.â Frank the Mad nodded to himself, never losing sight of what mattered. âThe Mexicans.â
âExactly. And it is with great reluctance that I accept the role of President, and the unlimited emergency powers that come with it. Powers that I promise to give up once the crisis is over.â Ryan winked at his audience. âHonest.â
Twenty Meta-Gang members had survived the short civil war, either because they wisely sided with the winning side or outright surrendered. Ryan recognized most of them, from the Land to Mongrel, though not all. He would have all the time to exploit them in the following days.
They might be his new minions, but they were still assholes.
As for the plushies, they had each bonded to an orphan, keeping watch over them like jealous pets. They had also enslaved Rakshasaâs gremlins, forcing them to fawn over the children by whipping them with harvested intestines. Ryan had the Psycho summoner teleport more creatures as an offering to their plushie overlords, which seemed to satisfy their bloodlust⦠for now.
In short, the pecking order had been established.
âHey, who made you the leader?â Ryan recognized the dissenter as the lizard Psycho he beat up at the orphanage, in the previous Dynamis run. Unfortunately, it seemed a few people disagreed with the new status quo. âYouâre not even one of us! Come to think of it, Iâm pretty sure you were a prisoner hours ago!â
Ryan looked at this rebel scum. âWhatâs your name, my scaled friend? The best I can come up with is âMook.ââ
âThe Reptilian.â
How original, another conspiracy trying to take over the government! Who was next, the Illuminati? âI assure you that this is a democracy: one man, one vote.â Ryan put a hand on his chest. âI am the man, and I have the vote.
