After slamming the gavel down, the silent room became even more still as they awaited the reveal of the treacherous worm with bated breaths. Slightly lifting his hand, the judge signaled the nearby prosecutor to remove the sack off of the man currently kneeling on the floor. With a quick flick of his wrist, the burlap disappeared. And in its place was a young man with dark curly hair, and electrifying blue eyes. He was a well known villain, decribed to be charming and handsome by the grotesque women around him, but that had no effect on the judge. Lifting the papers from his desk, he took a brief moment to clear his throat and began reciting the fine print in a clear yet frigid voice.
"Jack Ombrage," the said man removes his eyes from ogooling the nearest woman, and snaps his direction to the judge. Ignoring the moron's hint of a condescending smirk. The judge continues, "The counsel has decreed you unfit to wear the title as a villain for your many misfortunes and mishaps. You have gone against important criteria time and time again, and seem to shed no remorse for your troubles against us." The man never felt a single unit of guilt when it came to angering the counsel, which the judge would have normally agreed with, if it hadn't burdened him as well. With that in mind he finished his statement saying, "You will be given an hour at most, no more no less, to explain to me and everyone currently residing in this room as to why we shouldn't bring a most torturous death onto you. Begin." And with that last word, Ombrage sits a little straighter and widens the unbearable smirk on his face, seemingly eager to share all of his mishaps. (Honestly the judge was surprised he was able to stay silent for so long.) He opens his mouth and begins. "My fellow villains men, I have done nothing but bring countless reckonings onto this disgusting world of heroes. Time and time again defeating my one true nemesis, Savor Light. I have constantly kept the people living in his wretched town in a state of fear, and mind numbing pain has been inflicted onto those roaches in a number of ways. My being here was a mistake, and anyone in this entire country would agree."
"That speech was mind numbingly painful, so I'll give you that." Within seconds the judge had shaken the man's pride, earning him a quick twitch from the man on the floor. Unaffected, he continues, "interesting you say that Ombrage." Allowing the name to exit his mouth along with a dose of disgust. "The documents currently in front of me state that this so called "arch nemesis", was actually a self proclaimed rival of yours. Meaning that you gave yourself a hero to fight despite him never engaging with you. That was idiotic considering how no one knew who this individual was, stripping you of the chance to take over the town with no major issues." The judge clenches his jaw, barely holding back his distaste for the idiotic worm who broke the most basic of rules. Don't give yourself a potentially troublesome enemy. Continuing he says "Not only did you give up a major opportunity, you also time and time again, distracted yourself from your battles by chasing around various women and revealing your "evil" plans to everyone within a 10-mile radius."

Quickly sensing the growing hate within the court, Jack opens his mouth, and interrupts the judge stating, "But I have personally fought Savor on many occasions, and even came close to winning a battle a decent number of times" That remark makes the judge angry and exclaim, "Exactly my point. Not once have you ever experienced victory in any sort of counter you had. Whether it be brawling or spicey...noodle eating contests, he trails off taking a double look on Ombrage's portfolio. Weird. "But nonetheless, not only have you given yourself a record of never winning streaks. You also gave up the opportunity of letting a fellow villain take out your nuisance by infiltrating his lair and SAVING HIM YOURSELF!"
With that, everyone in the court began to instantly throw things at Ombrage. Whether it be rotten fruit, drinks, shoes, and the occasional snapping piranha. "He was my rival, only I should be able to take him out myself!" Ombrage attempts to explain. "SILENCE." The Judge yells. "I've heard enough, I refuse to question this failure of a parasite any longer." And with that he slams his gavel down and says, "As punishment for your crimes against villanry, you will be forcefully escorted to room 1097.24" Ombrage eyes widen and blink in confusion as he is roughly carried and thrown out of the room into the arms of various crazed scientists and psychiatrists. The doors shut in his face before he can voice his questions about said room, leaving the court to begin a combination of squeaky chairs being pushed back, shouts of insults, and crazed giggling. Well that was to be expected from a room of high class villains. Standing up, the judge begins to leave the room, before being stopped by a counsel man. Looking up in the judge's soulless eyes he says,"That room is meant only for torturing the mental health of "patients" and practically hypnotizing them into doing the counsels bidding. The survival rate is only 27%, do you think he'll survive in there?"
The judge begins to walk out, and before leaving the room exclaimes, "Of course not, that's why I sent him to that room!" And dusts off the nonexistent dirt on his robe before shutting the large doors and stalking towards his room. Planning to torture his forgotten victim on his desk for another hour before eventually killing him while reviewing the next trial date.
