"You've changed, man." Red Villain put his hand on Zert's shoulder. "You've changed a lot."
Zert shrugged Red Villain's hand away. "I was forced to pit two of my friends against each other, in order to keep the greatest secret of all time. It's hard to not be cynnical."
Red Villain sighed. "Zert, the bottom line is: we won. The program is gone, and we should be able to keep it from ever coming back."
"Have we? What if it does come back?"
"Then we'll be here again, to fight it again. Zert, we aren't ever leaving until we know it is safe."
"We can't be around forever. The program will come back again one day, it is bound to happen. And who will stop the program when we can't? Virtue Co.? They're the same leadership, just a new name..."
Red Villain shook his head. "Zert..."
"Just forget about it, Red. You're right, I have changed."
"Look man, the program is gone, let's just leave it at that."
Zert shook his head. "It won't ever be gone, until someone can find a way to destroy it or good."
"Then we'll find a way."
Zert laughed a little. "You're too optimisic, that'll catch up with you one day."
"Hmm. Well, what would you have us do with the program?"
Zert paused, deep in thought. "Atery has the pass word, 007Ki has the program. For now, we are set, I guess. But this is a very temporary solution to a permanent problem."
"What do we need to do? Just tell me and I'm behind you all the way."
Zert shook his head, and chuckled again. "Not this time, Red. For once, I think we don't see eye to eye. I've found a solution."
Red Villain stayed silent, waiting for Zert to finish.
"I'm quitting Red, I want out."
Red Villain was speechless.
