*Mart stood up from his chair with satisfaction, a sinister grin etched into his face.*
Mart: I'd say we've come to a quite acceptable agreement here, gentlemen.
Theodoric Thiefighter: Your Majesty, what is this... "propaganda victory" that you say you have achieved here?
Mart: I shall teach you basic English on the ride back, Theodoric. My ship awaits. Douglas, it has been a pleasure. Glory to you and your organization.
Doug Moblinn: I shall relay this good news to Frederick. Thank you for your time, gentlemen.
Chancellor of Guardia: This has been a terrible series of events, Your Majesty... I fear for the safety of our country...
King Guardia XXXIII: We must retain hope. I have faith that things cannot get worse from here...
*Mart's hand suddenly goes to his lightsaber.*
Mart: ...I sense a disturbance in the force...
Theodoric Thiefighter: Your Majesty?
Mart: Get down.
*Moblinn, Thiefighter, the Chancellor and the King barely have time to duck before the explosion. The room is engulfed in flames as Mart is thrown against the back wall.*
Mart: I'm not used to being at these things in person... I should've been more careful...
*Mart turns on his lightsaber and slowly gets up, inching towards the intruders. The collapsed walls reveal Mart's ship taking off and jumping to hyperspace.*
Doug Moblinn: Army's gonna hate dealing with this property damage... HEY, PYROMANIAC!! YOU KNOW THIS IS A SPACE STATION, RIGHT!? NOT ONLY PRIVATELY OWNED, BUT ALSO IN SPACE!!!
Mart: Shall we say... they're playing with fire?
*Mart turns to Doug, proud of himself. The mad bomber fires a gun at Mart, who, without looking, deflects it with his saber.*
Mart: Now, then... who dares to interrupt my negotiations?
*Three heroes step forward, crossing the flames.*
King Guardia XXXIII: ...why...?
Mart: Well, well, well... if it isn't-
Marle: Crono, Lucca, and Marle! Heroes of the present, here to put an end to your evil machinations!
Lucca: Your reign's getting cut short, Mart. The universe shall be at peace!
*Crono gives intimidation his best attempt.*
Mart: Princess Nadia... do you understand that I can kill your father with the clench of a fist?
Marle: You're a coward! You wouldn't dare!
Mart: I really wouldn't. But not out of fear. It's because he and the Chancellor are figures of the Guardia state. Eliminating them would not only be a pointless murder but also an act of war. And the fact that, if I were less sensible, your father would be already dead, strikes fear into you... I can sense your fear... and that alone is a victory, in my opinion.
Marle: N- no, YOU!!
*Marle casts Ice 2. Mart is frozen in a block of ice.*
King Guardia XXXIII: Nad- er, Marle! You've saved-
*Mart then shatters the ice.*
Mart: You should've seen the look on your face! Such shock, and now disappointment... you really did think that you measly magic could defeat me... why you thought that, I had no idea; you've never frozen anyone solid before... Anywho, your daft, inbred mind has proven its stupidity once more, and for it, you shall perish.
*Mart raises his left hand and blasts Marle with force lightning. His right hand turns off his lightsaber and places it back on his belt.*
Mart: Your inherent element is water. As I recall, water conducts electricity, which shall make this incredibly painful.
*Crono casts Lightning on Mart, who blocks it with his right hand and counters with a more powerful shock. Lucca fires her gun twice. Both shots are slapped out of the air. Mart grabs the Wondershot with the force just as Crono lunges at him. Mart fires a critical hit at Crono, who crumples to the ground.*
Mart: Is there anyone else stupid enough to defy me?
King Guardia XXXIII: Stop this... STOP THIS NOW!!
Mart: Your daughter chose death by opposing me. She committed a crime against the Gaian Emperor. High treason earns you the death penalty.
Lucca: Says who!?
Mart: Says I!
*Mart stops electrocuting Marle and force chokes Lucca.*
Mart: I am a judge, jury, and executioner. My orders surpass those of MacTonne or any other kangaroo court. I am the sole Emperor of Gaia. And I have diplomatic immunity. No, not just that- I am INVINCIBLE!!
*Crono suddenly gets up and Spincuts into Mart. The Rainbow is embedded deep into Mart's chest.*
Theodoric Thiefighter: YOUR MAJESTY!!
