#A Corporate Matter Episode: Thomas the Genocide Engine.

Gnar "Alright guys, looks like I need to go on a trip."

Warwick "In your favorite rock-"

Gnar "FINISH THAT SENTENCE AND I WILL FIRE YOU RIGHT HERE!"

Soraka "Where do you need to go?"

Gnar "According to Corporate Mundo, we have an event going over at Targon."

Soraka "How come I didn't know this, when does it start?"

Gnar "Like three months ago apparently. It's some weird drawn out thing. Anyways, I have got to take the Overpriced Express. Soraka, I want you to come with, I don't think I can be alone with Corporate Mundo for that long. Sona, you are in charge of here while I am gone."

Sona "..."

Gnar "Just try and keep everything running like normal. I shall message you on who to make free."

KogMaw "Have no fear Corporate Gnar. We shall keep this office in fine working order!"

Gnar "Rito help me."

A few hours later:

Hecarim "Welcome to the pony express everyone. This is your Captain, erm no, Pilot, that's not right, aha, Conductor speaking. I am talking to you over the intercoms, pretty cool right? Just wanting to let you know that this is a long trip, so sit back and please try not to kill anybody. We don't need another murder on the ponyental express."

Soraka "What does he mean by another?"

DrMundo "Corporate Mundo say it best not to ask too many questions."

Gnar "So, completely ignoring that. Boss, I have been meaning to ask you about a possible raise. You see, I have had to deal with a lot, and I think I have done a pretty good job of things."

DrMundo "Huh, what say you? Corporate Mundo zone out, thinking of last time me had furry creature to self. Corporate Mundo sad, that one not last long as me hope."

Gnar "Well, ok then. I think I am going to be over there, forget I said anything."

Hecarim "OH, THAT IS REALLY NOT GOOD! WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE! Wait, did I leave this thing on? Uhmmmm, you heard nothing, all is fine, nobody panic. On an unrelated note, everyone here has their wills in order, right?"

Gnar "Well, that sounds ominous. Let me take a look outside with these Binoculars. Hmmm, what's that on the tracks?"

Sion "CHUGGA CHUGGA CHUGGA!"

Gnar "OH, THAT THING IS COMING FAST!"

Sion "CHOOOOOOOOOO CHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Gnar "EVERYONE BRACE FOR IMPACT!!!!"

Sion "PAIN TRAIN'S COMING TO TOWN!!!!!"

Both trains collide in a huge crash. Explosions and screaming everywhere.

Gnar "ALRIGHT, WHO LET MICHAEL BAY DIRECT THIS EPISODE?"

Sion "NOW YOU SHALL ALL DIE!"

Riven "Wait, I thought you were a train, now you're a giant monster thing? Like, were you ever a functioning train or?"

Sion "I played train once, my passengers did not survive when I decided to walk."

Riven "But you can't just go around killing people and destroying property like this is some kind of action movie. We have rules and-" "Gets crushed by giant charged up hammer. While screaming like this."

Sion "Man, it feels good to kill a Riven."

Varus "HEY, WHY ARE YOU EVEN DOING THIS?"

Sion "BECAUSE, THEY DECOMISSIONED MY WIFE, TURNED HER INTO SCRAP. TRIED TO DO THE SAME TO ME BEFORE I KILLED THEM. NOW I AM HUNTING DOWN HER PARTS TO REBUILD HER. AND ONE OF THEM IS SOMEWHERE IN WHATS LEFT OF THIS TRAIN!!!!!!!! NOW DIE!" "Knocks Varus out of the park."

Gnar "Quick, Soraka we need to run!"

Sion "A YORDLE, YOUR KIND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THIS. YOU SHALL DIE SLOWLY!"

Gnar "OH SH-"

Malphite "SMASH!"

Gnar "Mecha Malphite, what took you so long?"

Malphite "I was going as fast as I can."

Sion "YOU! IF YOU WON'T ABANDON THE FLESHLINGS AND JOIN ME. THEN YOU ARE A FOOL, THEY WILL DESTROY YOU AS SOON AS THEY NO LONGER NEED YOU. BUT NOT IF I DO FIRST!"

A giant mecha battle ensues, with shockwaves and all kinds of people getting stepped on. Oh, and explosions, lots of explosions.

Hecarim "Awh man, I finally get my dream job and Pacific Rim breaks out right above me."

DrMundo "Corporate Mundo say me ride you and we get away from giant metal monsters. Yes?"

Hecarim "I don't know, it is kind of against everything me and my kind believe in to let you ride me."

DrMundo "Corporate Mundo say he bribe judges at next contest."

Hecarim "Another blue ribbon for Hecarim! Hop on!"

DrMundo "Me say go faster!"

Hecarim "Hey bud, I can only go so fast. And you weigh a ton, you need to lay off the souls of the League players a bit."

Gnar "WAIT BOSS, COME BACK!"

DrMundo "Ignore all sounds, me say you no go back. Wait, Corporate Mundo now remember, if underling die me have pay for funeral. CORPORATE MUNDO COMING BACK FOR FURRY UNDERLING AND FRIEND!"

Hecarim "Let's hope this doesn't break my back, then I would be completely lame. You know what they do to lame horses. I don't want to be used to bind wood. But I want that ribbon, guess I have no choice, you two hop on as well."

Soraka "Wait, what about all the other dying passengers of the train?"

Lucian "Please, help us."

DrMundo "Corporate Mundo no hear anything. Onward me trusty steed."

A few agonizing hours later:

Gnar "Yes, we finally made it, Mount Targon."

Hecarim "Nearly dies from having to carry three people."

DrMundo "Horse no work no more, now me need shoot it."

Soraka "WAIT STOP, THIS ISN'T TRUE GRIT!"

Taric Why hello there, glad to see you have arrived."

Soraka "Taric, what are you doing here?"

Taric "Oh, I moved to Targon now. But the place was really lacking in the tourism industry. So I set up The Grand BudaGem Hotel."

Gnar "Great, we could use a place to stay."

Taric "Oh, I know. Corporate Mundo set it up. But I am going to need something extra, since your attire is so drab."

DrMundo "Me no have money."

Taric "No money, I have a huge hole that needs filling, and Hecarim might just be big and strong enough to do it. Come, follow me Horse. I'll have Leona show the rest of you around."

Leona Ugh, fine. I'll show the stupid guests around."

Soraka "Well, aren't you just a little ball of sunshine."

Leona "Oh, sorry. I get really crabby when the sun goes down. But if you find me during the day I'll be as bright as the sun's beautiful face."

Gnar "Man, I just want to sleep. Riding that horse took a worse toll on me than playing ten ranked games in a row."

Leona "Alright, your rooms are on the third floor to the right. Showers are somewhere, I forgot. And we have a pool behind the hotel. But seeing how it snows here eleven months out of the year, I don't think you are going to get much use out of it."

Soraka "And what's down the way Taric went?"

Leona "Oh, the only thing down there is the master bedroom."

(I would like to give special thanks to a fan of the series, tijscvd. He drew this really awesome fan art of Corporate Gnar, which I recommend you check out here: https://imageshack.com/a/YX2M/1 You guys are the best, thanks for all you do with A Corporate Matter.

This is so fucking op.

SkyBlade794/19/2016, 1:52:28 PM1 votes

When you realize that this means that Azir is free on URF...

But besides that, most of the champions on the rotation are particularly bad at URF, except maybe Talon. I wonder if they did that on purpose?

The Void Show: Episode 1: The Sacrifice (WARNING) This contains some foul language. Reader discretion is advised.

Chogath "Hey Malz, we want a sacrifice so if you can do that that'd be great." Malzahar "A'ight." A little while later.. "La la la la la la, wait why the f*ck am I singing?" Amumu "I dunno" "HOLY SHIT WTF WHERE DID YOU COME FROM" Amumu "Over there." "Oh." Amumu "I heard you mumbling about a sacrifice thing so I decided I would help you." "Ok, cool. First, just sacrifice yourself to the void." Amumu "WTF?! NO I MEANT TO GET YOU A SACRIFICE! NOT SACRIFICE ME!" Malzahar "Oh. Y'know you could've just said that." Amumu "Ehh, true but I didn't feel like it." Amumu "Anyway I know a good sacrifice." "What is it then?" Amumu "It is known as... THE TEEMO." "Oooookay. So how do we get to this 'teemo'?" Amumu "I know a shortcut. Its actually a train." LATER (again).. Amumu "Here we are!" Malzahar "Ok." Amumu "Why do you sound like Rammus all of the sudden?" "Who?" Amumu "Nevermind. Anyway, the train is almost here." Sion "ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN" "Is that.. Mecha Zero Sion?" Sion "YEP" "Cool." Amumu "Mecha Sion, we need to get to Teemo." Sion "ALRIGHT I WILL TAKE YOU THERE BECAUSE IM A TRAIN AND THATS WHAT I DO" Malzahar "I'm going to assume that was supposed to be funny." Sion "ALL ABOARD!"

TO BE CONTINUED..
