In the jungles of the Outlands, a part of the Spider Army approaches Scorm City from the northwest, headed by King Skaulus Rax.
Skaulus: "We must be wise about this, and plan our entrance carefully. We don't want our Scorpion allies to think we're attacking them... additionally, my spider in the castle said that Scrin has inserted himself in Scorpio's throne room, and he seems to be the one who revived Scorm. It appears Scrin will not stop until he destroys that family... hmph. That Scrin is a deadly poison knife in the Arachnid Alliance's side, but we can't let the Scorpions know that Scorm has been resurrected."
The Spiders move out, casually entering the city like they're on official business. The large force starts swarming into the castle.
Skaulus: "Do not be alarmed, citizen. We are here to meet with your King for official business."
Scorpion: "With a couple legions?!"
Skaulus: "You dare question a king?!"
Scorpion: "Er, no sir! Forgive me, Your Highness."
-Scorm still sat in the throne, dazed and shocked still, the murderer and man whom “posesses” him before him?! But it seemed Doctor Freeman had a change of heart for his old former king... the goatee’d Scorpion looked back to the Golden king and gave him a reassuring smile beneath his mandibles before turning to the interdimensional being that was the G-man before him...-
G-Man: “Doctor... F-Free... man... get... back... The Golden Scorpion King... Is my... prop-er-ty... and must you, Doctor Freeman... be a... Nuisance... to my Plans...?” -he’d say with restrained anger, Scordon growling under his breath, raising his flame-engulfed Crowbar before the G-man in a threatening manner, his Aperture-Mesa-Made Powersuit infused with the golden Fire Wings harness, annvery Hazardous Suit, when made to protect from Hazards...-
-Dr. Freeman looked back to see the Sulking Golden king, lost in emotions of all things, and then to the others of the room, eyeing them individually, to see what they had to say in this confrontation of epic proportions...-
G-Man: “Please... get... back...” -he’d say a bit more threateningly-
-Scorm Tenses up, wanting to do something, wondering what will happen-
The two guards in the throne room pick their spears back up, but take a few steps back.
Guard #1: "Okay, wait. What's going on? Stomper Scorpion in the business suit, please identify yourself."
Guard #2: "How did you get here, Dr. Scordon?? What are— why are there phoenix wings made out of fire on your back?"
In the hallway, the Republic spy, carrying Scorpio, runs straight into the spider who's recording the throne room conversation.
Spider: "Oh, I'm terribly sorry— So wait, what's this Republic of the Claw you talked about in there?"
Republic scorpion: "Uh, no time!"
The scorpion rushes past, running into the castle's hospital. Prince Scorpio is immediately given medical treatment by the present doctors.

(OOC: Scrin’s not in his Scorpion Forme rn, forgot to mention that! ) -the gangly suited Homo sapien was trying to assert his otherworldy power onto the Doctor: no effect was happening...-
Scorm: “AGH—!!! D-doctor... F-F-Freem-maaaaannnn...” -The Golden king hissed out in lucrative pain, The Hero to the Forgotten looks back to him, hissing to silence him-
G-Man: “Sssssstop...! You c-cannot go on m-muuuuuch... f-farther!” -The man was beginning to loose his temper a bit, his hands twitching, how is he just gonna hurt the Freeman with a lousy briefcase?!-
-Soon the Silent Protagonist lashed out, soon bringing two painful swings out on across the G-Man’s face with the rounded part of the crowbar (not the flat parts at the end of the curve)!! The G-man made some distorted hisses and groans of pain as he’d be sent back stumbling before he fell to his side.-
G-Man: “... -snarls- O-ouch... we’ll see about... th-that!” -he’d hissed out whilst letting go of his briefcase (now left unattended), before getting up, green light glows from his hands, balls of energy, said balls soon coerced into an whispy Beams of green energy to fire upon the Freeman, an power which nobody has seen before...-
Scorm: “Hhuuyyaaghh...!! L-let m-me g-go you a-alien!!” -he’d hissed out weakly, fighting off The G-man’s influences as Freeman laid more attacks on the suited man of power-
-The battle continues on...- -meanwhile...-
-Scorpio was laid out on a Hospital bed, his wounds being healed up with his condition being stabilized using chi IV-bags...-
-The young man was in a coma... in said Coma, he was in purgatory’s grasp, the influence of Scrin was nothing more than an distant memory... and within walking around the grey featureless void, he sees Scorpia and Scorpix talking to eachother... he cannot make out their words, but their mouths and mandibles were moving... The Golden Prince comes running to them... only to be stopped by a large flaming wall that seperates the three!-
-Maybe inside that Breifcase of Scrin’s, holds many secrets to this universe... and maybe the souls he’s kept within “stasis”... Maybe Scorpia can... come back...?-

OOC: Scorpix is actually in the afterlife. More likely, it would be someone like Razar or Solrac in Scrin's purgatory.
IC: Skaulus's army marches up the winding staircases of Scorm City's castle.
Skaulus: "We're coming for you, Scrin!"
Skaulus and the other spiders plug fire chi. Skaulus and the spiders at the front of the charge barge into the throne room.
Skaulus: "Haugh!! Surprised to see me, demo— Wait, what is this? Who is that winged scorpion, and why is he attacking Scrin?!"

Skaulus: "Haugh!! Surprised to see me, demo— Wait, what is this? Who is that winged scorpion, and why is he attacking Scrin?!"
As Scrin is very briefly distracted by the spiders' sudden arrival, Scordon Freeman quickly puts his crowbar around Scrin's neck, pulling him back as if in a wrestling hold. Scrin stumbles back, opening a portal to an unknown place as he tries to break free of Scordon's hold.
Scrin roars: "AUURRAGGH!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU FOOL?! IT WOULD BE IN YOUR -- hmph -- BEST INTEREST TO UNHAND ME!!"
Scordon ignores Scrin's shouts, silently pulling Scrin into the portal he created. Scrin's roars of anger are drowned out as Scordon pulls him down into the portal to the unknown. Both men fall and disappear from sight as the swirling portal closes. Scorm collapses, unconscious, due to Scrin having messed with his mind until this moment.
Skaulus: "Wh-- what? Hmph, so it appears one of the Forgotten finally stood up to Scrin. That demon appeared to be teleporting using this... briefcase, so we won't need to worry about encountering him anymore, for the time being. However, we came here to eliminate Scorm and Scrin... and these two scorpions know that Scorm is alive. After what Scorm said about terminating the Arachnid Alliance, we can't have the Scorpions finding out about their old king's resurrection."
Skaulus cautiously picks up Scrin's dropped briefcase, then turns to the two scorpion guards.
Skaulus: "Scorpions, I'm... I'm sorry it has to be this way, I truly am, but I can't allow you to tell any more scorpions about Scorm."
Skaulus turns back to his soldiers, then briefly inclines his head toward the scorpions.
Scorpion guard: "No, wait--!"
The two scorpions are immediately gunned down by a barrage of fire laser blasts from the Spider soldiers.
Skaulus: "Find that "Republic" spy we were told about, and eliminate him; he was in the throne room when Scorm arrived."
Spider: "Your Highness, aren't we to execute Scorm?"
Skaulus: "I-- we can't. We just can't. Not like this, while he's in his current state. What we've had to do here so far has been bad enough. Ending Scorm while he's unconscious would be unforgivably dishonorable. I'll have to... figure something out. Chain Scorm, and don't let any scorpions in this room, under any circumstances."
OOC: For those who don't yet know, Thethirddecade is leaving LMBE, and he told me he wanted these events to happen to his characters. The character Scordon Freeman has not been removed from the RP, despite what this post may have implied.

The Republic spy is captured before he can leave the city. Skaulus and the Spiders gather the Scorpions in the city.
Skaulus: "Scorpions! A tragedy has befallen the Arachnid Alliance! This chained scorpion you see before you is a traitor, who staged an attempt on King Scorpio's life."
Gasps erupt through the crowd as a video is shown of Scorpio, still unconscious on the hospital bed.
Skaulus: "Luckily, because of the intervention of us Spiders, this traitor's attempt on King Scorpio's life was thwarted, and Scorpio is recovering."
The Scorpions cheer as Skaulus' Spiders execute the traitor.

Spider: "Your Highness, Scorm has been broken out of captivity!"
Skaulus: "What?! How!?"
Spider: "A female spider with wings made of fire, like the ones that Forgotten guy who attacked Scrin was wearing, broke into his temporary cell, simply by flying through the wall! She picked up the unconscious Scorm, and quickly flew away with him, dodging all our shots at her."
Skaulus: "Oh well. That spider was very likely from the Forgotten, but perhaps she has the same intentions as us; keeping the other scorpions from finding out about Scorm's revival. In any case, be on the lookout for her and Scorm."

The Spiders march back north, with the highest ranking scorpion generals agreeing to temporarily co-lead the Scorpions, both inside and outside the HQ, since the injured King Scorpio is currently in a coma.

King Scorpio wakes up from his coma, fully healed by now. Hardened by his experiences, Scorpio gathers himself, aiming to become stronger, so that he can have revenge on his father without being easily defeated again. Scorpio has been matured and made more resilient by his multiple near-death defeats, and this time, now that Scrin is gone and unable to control him, Scorpio's maturation is 100% genuine, not influenced by an outside force.
Scorpio has his most physically fit Generals put him through an intense physical training regiment, the news of Skaulus Rax's fall motivating him even more to become a stronger Scorpion King. Scorpio's mother, Scorpia, freed from Scrin's capture due to his disappearance from Chima, acts as Queen Regent, managing the tribe as Scorpio goes through his long fitness and education plan, steadily building up both his physical and mental strength.

———————————————————————————— New post:
Soon, scorpions appear over the horizon. As scorpions in Scorm City look west in confusion, more and more scorpions appear on the edge of the Outland jungles, until the entire army of the Republic of the Claw becomes visible, taking up the horizon line. Blazing orange fire chi auras erupt in front of the equally orange western sunset. A scorpion in the front of the Republic army speaks through a chi-magnified loud hailer.
Sirius: "Attention, Scorpions of Scorm City. I am Praetor Sirius, of the Republic of the Claw. You all know, as we have made the information widespread, that leadership of the Scorpion Tribe rightfully belongs to Consuls Craunus Maximus and Calloran Fen. If your false King, Scorpio, relinquishes his leadership title and lets us enter the city, we won't need to have a fight. We all know that Scorpio, regardless of bloodline, is too young and unqualified to lead the tribe, but if he relieves himself of his title, he and his mother will of course be allowed to continue living in Scorm City, as citizens equal to all other scorpions. We await the boy's response."
After a few minutes, King Scorpio responds.
Scorpio: "Mere months ago, I would've handed this city over immediately. But I am no boy anymore. I am the one true King the Scorpions deserve, and I will not let the Republic of the Claw takeover my tribe."
Sirius: "So be it." [OOC: *Avengers theme song starts playing.* ]
As Sirius finishes that sentence, Scarabus roars a battle cry, and the Republic army charges down to the city. The Republic forces easily and quickly dig tunnels under the wall of Scorm City, therefore not needing to destroy any of the city's wall turrets. As scorpions clash with scorpions inside the city, the castle is stormed. Still recovering from multiple wars and infighting, the Scorpion Tribe is no match for the Republic army, which has had many months of peace to plan, prepare, and power up for this.
Scorpia: "Son, we must leave! I have a Stinger-Copter above the throne room. There's no shame in a logical surrender—"
Scorpio: "No... no... NO! I will NOT leave! I'm tired of running! I will not cower any more! I will fight to the end! I'm destined to lead the Scorpions, as it's become clear to me! I am the one true King!! Not my father, not Scorpix or his successors, ME—!!"
The Praetors and their fire chi powered forces smash through the door into the throne room, having easily defeated the guards. Scorpio plugs fire chi himself and lunges at them, despite his mother's shrieks. The now physically strong Scorpio is a match for Sirius and Scarabus as he duels them, but is inevitably overwhelmed by the Praetors and their soldiers. Scorpio clutches his side, which has been struck, as he drops his sword.
Scorpio: "No... my... destiny..."
Scorpia catches the half-conscious Scorpio as he falls, and runs out of the throne room, carrying him up to the landing pad on the castle's flat roof. Scorpia, piloting the Stinger-Copter with Scorpio in the back, flies away from the city. With their monarchs having abandoned them, the Scorpions lay down their arms, yielding the city to the Republic of the Claw.
Scarabus: "It's a shame it had to come to this. Scorpio could've surrendered, and continued living here."
Sirius: "Yes, but perhaps this is for the better. With all the members of the original royal family having retreated to save themselves, the Scorpions now no longer hold faith in monarchies. The Scorpion Tribe is now governed by the Republic of the Claw, as it was always meant to be."
OOC: I forgot to finish this move, when I ceased the invasion of black fang mountain
*Much of the outlands, are liberated as wolf tanks and choppers blitz through the outland forests and plains*
*Gorilla forces move in to help the wolves secure their just aqquired lands*
*The forces avoid taking the giant crater, and instead just go around it*
*A message is sent to the Republic of the Claw, reuquesting Unichi reinforcements to secure the outlands*
Scarabus takes Scorpion soldiers from Scorm City to assist. About 2/3rds of the Outlands are now owned by Unichi, with the northern third being Spider territory, and the Sabertoothes and Icebears having small pockets of land around Black Fang Mountain and Crystal Crater.
Soon, Craunus Maximus and Calloran Fen arrive to Scorm City's castle on board a Stinger-Copter. Sirius guides the politicians on a tour of the castle.
Sirius: "The Scorpion Tribe is now loyal to the Republic, and most of the Outlands are in Unichi's hands."
Craunus: "Excellent. This was all timed perfectly indeed. Perhaps our Air Force can lend a hand in the Black Fang Mountain situation."
Calloran: "Yes, but as we discussed, changes will need to be made to the Republic, now that we're governing the entire Scorpion Tribe's population."
Craunus: "Right."
Sirius: "What do you mean?"
Calloran: "The Sortition system worked for a smaller population, but now, every adult scorpion will have the right to vote. We want to sell them on the Republic idea anyway, remember?"
