Chapter Two : The First Offical Non-official Meeting of Future Evil Business Partners of Sirania (or TFONOMOFEBPOS for short)

Scene: The summer heat continues to beat down on the junkyard. The smell of dirty diapers, discarded meat patties, and animal corpses lingers in the air. The heat emitting from the sun continues to strengthen the repulsive smell coming from the various trash piles. Jet E. Evil stands next to a cardboard box with an devilish smile on his face.

Jet: Alright you guys, everyone get into the box.

[Red and Aidan look at each other with a confused expression on their face]

Red: Wait…..what?
Aidan: Dude, you've gotta be kidding me.
Jet: No, I'm being serious you guys, [demanding] get inside the box!
Aidan: [approaches the disgusting cardboard box, and pokes it] Ummm… bro, [snickers] don't you think it's a little too small?
Red: [looks at Aidan with disbelief] What are you, stupid? You should be asking, "Why the hell would we go inside the box?"
Aidan: Well, why not?
Red: [struggling] Well…..because….it's stupid.
Aidan: You're stupid!
Red: That's it, I'm not giving any Cheese-ZITS to you.
Aidan: [gasps] So you did have cheese-ZITS! You freakin' liar!
Red: [Angered] I already told you, I don't have any Cheese-ZITS
Aidan: But you just said-

[Jet quickly steps in.]

Jet: [irritated] Will you guys calm down, and get inside the box already so we can start this meeting?
[Aidan quickly jumps inside the cramped cardboard box, Jet quickly joins him]
Jet: [looks at Red] C'mon, there's room for one more.
Red: [shakes head] Why would I get in there with you guys?
Jet: It's custom man, every villain holds a secret evil meeting in his secret evil base.
Red: But it's a box.
Jet: Exactly. Nobody would ever suspect a group of evil villains to have a meeting in a smelly old box.
[Realizing he can't win the argument, Red quickly hops into the cardboard box. The box begins to stretch outwards. The slightest movement will cause it to collapse.]
Jet: [clears throat] Alright, it seems like everyone is here and accounted for, let the First Official Non-Official Meeting of Future Evil Business Partners begin. Now, let me ask you guys something, where are we right now?
Aidan: In a junkyard.
Red: In a box.
Jet: Correct, were in a junkyard inside a box, and do you know why?
Aidan and Red: [glancing at each other] No, not really.
Jet: It's because were going to pull off our first evil assignment.

[Aidan and Red's eyes widen with excitement]

Jet: [strongly] Evil is in our blood, it's in our genes, it's in our hearts. From the moment we were born in Sirania, I knew we were destined to become evil rulers. How? [short pause] I don't know, I just did.
Red: [interrupts] But how did you know?
Aidan: Yeah bro, why are do we have to be evil?
Jet: Because it's no fun being good. [clarifies] Being evil is something you have to feel, you don't really need a reason to actually become evil, you sort of just…..do it. For example, do you guys know why you enjoy playing video games?
Red: No.
Aidan: Not really.
Jet: Exactly, being evil is just like a videogame. You enjoy playing games not because you HAVE to, but because you WANT to. Understand?
Aidan: Yeah, I think I get it, it's like when I meet a hot chick. I enjoy playing her not because I HAVE to, but because I WANT to.
Red: Or when I feel the urge to eat every moment I get. I eat not because I HAVE to, but because I WANT to.
Jet: [chuckling] Yeah, I suppose you get the idea.

[The cardboard box is reaching its limit. It begins to rip along the edges.]

Jet: Anyways our first evil mission is rather plain and simple. [looks at Aidan] And I think you'll enjoy this one man.
Aidan: What are you talking about dude?
Jet: Our first mission is to infiltrate Sirania Castle's 17th Annual Ball.
Red: [confused] Dancing? That doesn't sound like anything Aidan would enjoy.
Jet: No, wait, you didn't let me finish. Were going to infiltrate Sirania Castle's 17th Annual Ball and get up close and personal with a couple of girls.
[Aidan's eyes begin to widen, and a huge grin appears on his face]
Aidan: Yes…go on…
Jet: After we get the girls to fall in love with us, that's when we'll….. [pauses for dramatic tension]
Aidan: [excited] Tell us! We need to know!
Jet: [continues] ….break their hearts!
Red: [snickers] Hahaha!!! Man, you are EVIL!
Aidan: [with confidence] Oh, I get a girl and I get to break her heart on the same day? Man, I'm a playa!
Red: [still confused] Wait a second, how is dating a couple of girls going to help us take over the Siranian Kingdom?
Jet: Well Red, the girls we meet aren't going to be just any ordinary girls. [grins] They're going to be none other than Princess Courtney, and Princess Jennifer, King Jager's lovely daughters.
Red: [in disbelief] No way!
Aidan: [with attitude] Alright, get to meet some hot chicks!
Jet: I want you guys to remember one thing.
Red and Aidan: What?
Jet: Were only using them to get to King Jager, and that's it.
Red and Aidan: [in agreement] We understand.
Jet: With that settled, I declare this evil meeting over.

[The cardboard box finally falls apart. Jet, Red, and Aidan topple out of the box and fall hard onto the ground.]

Jet: [laughing] Man, we must have been really evil today, normally these cardboard boxes last a good three meetings.
Red: [looks at Jet with disbelief] How can someone this evil be so weird at the same time?
Aidan: [to himself] Hot girls, hot girls, going to meet some hot girls.
