A Corporate Matter Episode: A Not So Festive Maokai

Gnar "So, boss, what did ya get me?"

DrMundo "Well, Corporate Mundo get you Golden Black Cleaver, like you always wantings. But since you say Merry Christmas, whic-"

Janna "I am receiving more breaking news. Even the head honcho who runs the Company that makes League hates everything that isn't Christmas. We Highly recommend that you continue sending them hateful messages. And suggest hand writing death threats to them. That will show them that you need to be nice to everyone."

DrMundo "Sigh." "Since you say it and cause Corporate Mundo to say it. Company is millions less than used to be. So me need sell gift and dock you salary to try make up for it."

Gnar "See Soraka, I told you something horrible would happen. But nooo, I am being paranoid you said. It's fine to say it you said. WELL ITS NOT FINE, EVERYONE HATES ME NOW!"

Soraka "Yeah, you were right. Why do people have to get so upset over everything? I mean, you can't even say something nice to someone without someone else saying you hate everyone but the one person you said something nice about."

Gnar "I just want to get out of this cabin and go back to the office. Forget about this whole thing and just be miserable as always. There is no possible way this can get anyone worse."

As if him saying that was written specifically to foreshadow what happens next. Things do indeed get worse as all the power in the cabin Shuts off.

Sona "..."

Gnar "Yeah, I know I probably shouldn't have said that. But you don't have to be so rude about it."

Kayle "Corporate Kayle is on the case. Flaming Pointer stick, let's see what caused the power outage."

Maokai "BOO!"

DrMundoGnarKogMawSorakaSonaBraumNasusLucianKayleLeeSin "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

Kayle "Great, now I dropped my stick."

Nasus "IT'S SO DARK IN HERE, DID GRAVES DROP A SMOKEBOMB?"

Soraka "WHAT WAS THAT THING?"

Braum "IT LOOK LIKE LIVING SNOWDOWN TREE!"

Kayle "Ah, found it. LET THERE BE LIGHT!"

LeeSin "I STILL CAN'T SEE ANYTHING!"

Lucian "That is because you are blind."

LeeSin "Oh, right, thanks Lucie."

Maokai "YOU ALL SHALL PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO MY WIFE."

DrMundo "Corporate Mundo want know where that voice come from."

LeeSin "The roof I think, sir."

Lucian "What did he mean about his wife?"

Nasus "Did anyone notice that our Snowdown tree has two dead eyes on it?"

Soraka "I THOUGHT THOSE WERE JUST DECORATIONS, AHHHHHH!"

Braum "Corporate Braum think he going to be sick." "Barf."

LeeSin "Hey, uhh Gnarly. Where did you say you got that tree from again?"

Gnar "I found a sign for a place buried in the snow. It said, Magical Snowdown tree."

Kayle "TREE-ENTS, ENTS!!!!! Man, I wish being an idiot was a reportable offense, because I would so have you permabanned in less than a minute."

LeeSin "So, let me get this straight. You went and killed Festive Maokai's wife in her sleep. Then hung her body up here as a decoration while we all sang and danced around it. That is so demented. No wonder he is upset."

Maokai "Ho ho ho!"

DrMundo "Well, nice knowing all you."

Gnar "IT GOT THE BOSS! Well, good riddance."

LeeSin "What happened to the Snow Days. We could really use their help here."

Sona "..."

Gnar "A snowy meeting? What do they have to meet about? How to build a snowball in a way that is most aerodynamic. Or, how tall should a snowman really be. How about, what to do the rest of the year."

LeeSin "What about Guard Dog Warwick. Isn't it his job to stop something like this?"

Gnar "He threatened to sue if we didn't give him the Holidays off. Plus, he really isn't that much help. He leaves you for dead at the first sign of a steak."

Kayle "Who needs him when you have me. I ain't afraid of no tree."

Maokai "You have been a very bad girl."

Kayle "But, it's my job to catch people who are bad. AHHHHHHHH!"

Gnar "Great, now we have no light again. It's pitch black in he- OOOOOFF! That's a table."

KogMaw "I have an idea. Maybe if we call my friend, Reindeer Kog'Maw. He can light our way."

Gnar "Alright, how do we do that?"

KogMaw "We gotta sing his song. I'll start. Kog'Maw the Vomit-mouthed Reindeer."

Soraka "Had some very, caustic spittle."

Braum "And if it ever hit you. Which it wouldn't, because Braum is always here."

Gnar "Just stick to the song."

Nasus "You would even say it burns, like the melting pain of a thousand acid rivers."

KogMawitem 3341 "Let there, barghlhl, be light."

KogMaw "I told you he would come. Now let's chop us down another tree."

Maokai "Hey guys, I see you found me. Uhh, why do you all have axes?"

Gnar "Yippee-ki-yay, Miss Fortune!"

Maokai "Wait wait wait, it was just a prank bro. I didn't really kill Corporate Mundo and Corporate Kayle. I just locked them up in the closet."

Gnar "They are alive? Darn."

Nasus "Time to chop you up, you psycho."

Maokai "No, please. I'm sorry. I mean, cut me a little slack. Ok, poor choice of words, but you guys did kill my wife."

Nasus "Yeah, we did! My only regret is that I didn't get any stacks off of her."

Maokai "Harsh. But, I guess she does kind of look good all lit up like that. And she was a terrible wife, just slept all day and never had dinner ready when I got home."

Soraka "Hey, would you like to join us. I mean, it is the Holidays after all."

A few minutes later. The power had been restored and everyone was once again enjoying their day. Except maybe Corporate Gnar, nothing ever makes him happy.

Soraka "Oh Maokai's wife, Oh Maokai's wife."

Maokai "Thy eyes are so pale."

LeeSin "Oh Maokai's wife, oh Maokai's wife."

Gnar "Oh how we hope you don't decay."

Sona "..."

KogMaw "Thy was such a bad wife."

Soraka "Hey, do you think we should let Corporate Mundo and Corporate Kayle out of that closet?"

Gnar "Eh, not yet. He took my present, so as my gift to him, he can be stuck in a closet with an angry Angel of justice."

Maokai "AHAHAHAHAHAH! You guys are the best."

Teemo "AHHH!!! WHO IS LAUGHING, THEY WOKE ME UP. BLINDING DART!"

Maokai "I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING!" "Smacks right into a wall."

Maokai "CORPORATE LEE SIN, HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU MANAGE TO BE BLIND! I MEAN, NOW I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE MY MID LANER WHEN I NEED HIM AT ANY TIMES!"

LeeSin "You don't need to see when all y'all smell so horrible. Makes it easy for me to find important objectives, like Dragon and free towers. They air is always clear because my team is as far away from them as possible."

And so, they all relaxed and got along. Some lucky few enjoyed their new presents. Festive Maokai regained his sight, having learned a bit about Lee Sin. He signed up for a dating website and already got one hit. Someone Named: "Poinsettia-Zyra072412." Meanwhile, King Dellron typed this all out, on his brand new Keyboard.

Beyond the Void: Episode 3

In Azir's castle/palace...

Azir "Alright! That was a dazzling light show! Thank you, Lux!"

Lux "Shut up."

The guests gasp

Azir "To be completely honest, I did not expect that from you. Take her away!"

Someone jumps out of the crowd

Ezreal "NO! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!"

Ezreal starts charging his weapon and points it at Azir. The crowd gasps again. Azir then lifts his hand and a sand soldier grazes Ezreal's skin with the spear. The crowd gasps even more.

Azir "Why are you guys gasping so much? You guys are all going to be dehydrated in the middle of the desert! I mean don't get me wrong, we have water, just not enough for all of you!"

Azir looks around at the crowd and notices that all of the guest members are clowns. They all have the same face but are wearing red, green or blue clothing. Then, they all start disappearing and red mist starts spreading everywhere. Azir slumps back in his throne and his vision starts to turn black.

Azir "GAHHHH!"

He wakes up from the nightmare and observes what has happened. The throne room is destroyed and there are random patches of fire across the hall. Azir stands up to see the rubble of the ground. He then looks in front of his and looks at a familiar face.

Shaco "Did you have a nice dream?"

Azir "What have you DONE?! YOU MONSTER!"

Shaco "Don't worry about the place. Worry about yourself and your people. Oh yeah! I also freed all of your prisoners."

Out of the pile of rubble behind Shaco, a body could be seen

Azir "No, NO! NO NO NO NO! Not Twitch!"

Shaco "Ah! He was an interesting fellow. After I saw that he was under a spell, I gave him a potion that would make him immune to such things."

Azir "So that's why you're here??? To RIGHT all my WRONGS?!?!?!"

Shaco takes out his dagger.

Shaco "And to kill you!"

He charges towards Azir and disappears when the soldiers are summoned.

Azir "YOU DEVILISH---"

Shaco then appears right in front of him, chuck the dagger at Azir's chest and disappears in red mist again. He reappears and faces Azir.

Shaco "Don't worry, I evacuated all the citizens. You are the only one who is going to die tonight!"

Azir looks up and around the main hall. There are jester boxes with timers on them.

Azir "NOOOOOOOO!"

Just as all of the boxes show the 0:10 on the screens, Azir rushes out of the main hall, but stops before the edge of the cliff. Shaco's voice rings in his head. The clocks now show 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..... BOOM! Azir jumps off the edge right as the orange and black fumes consume the main hall.

Azir Waking up a few hours later.. "Wha- Where am I? HELLO? IS ANYONE-"

Twitch Lights a camper lamp "Shhhh! There is no need for yelling here."

Azir "Oh thank goodness you are here!"

Twitch "I am not here to help you. I am here to get my revenge!"

"AND SO AM I!! WHAT YOU HAVE DONE AZIR IS NOT JUSTIFIED, AND YOU WILL PAY!"

A big beast appears behind Twitch. Twitch looks behind and smiles. Then, the beast suddenly smashes Twitch with its fists, stunning him. Twitch then raises his weapon and shoots at the beast, walking backwards each time he shoots. Twitch bumps into Azir, Azir pushes him foward onto the ground and the beast throws a boulder at Twitch, which throws him into the wall of the cave. The beast then de- evolves into a small furry animal.

Azir "Corporate Gnar! What a pleasant surprise!"

Gnar "There is no time for filler talk. We have to move... NOW!"

They both rush farther into the cave as more explosions shake the cave walls around them

So, I wanted to post a comment to League of Legends to help improve the game it gave me a giant run around where it asked me a ton of questions about the game and the changes that they have already made, etc. I answered all of them thinking that I would then be able to leave them an email or something where I could post a comment. Instead it puts me in a forum and says make a post here!!! wtf....

SO HERE IS MY POST!!!

Can you please make it so that you can exchange items in the buy menu, it's rather irritating that you can't.

THANK YOU, concerned league player.
