"...because I'm about to kill you!" A form of Pre-Mortem One-Liner where the utterer has determined in advance that he is going to kill someone, indicating to the other person that he has no chance to survive. Frequently uttered by villains, but may also be uttered by heroes depending on their Character Alignment. If It's Personal for the hero, someone may say that If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!. Variations in this Stock Phrase frequently manifest as substitutions for the word "die," depending on the situation, or the age group it's catering to. Its most common variation is "Prepare to be destroyed!" Surprisingly, nobody explores exactly how you prepare to die. Perhaps you're supposed to do it by borrowing large sums of money and unloading long term stocks. Or leaving a note to the police explaining who killed you and why, thus saving some hard-working public servant a lot of effort. Traditionally, you did it by making peace with God, hence this line's occasional substitutes, "Say your prayers!" or "Prepare to meet your maker!" Still, the person who says it rarely gives them the time to properly prepare. When done against a hero, expect the Big Damn Heroes to swing in at any moment. Sometimes it's the Bad Guys Doing the Dirty Work instead. A Thwarted Coup de Grâce is sure to follow. Compare I'm Your Worst Nightmare. Contrast Ineffectual Death Threats. Also, contrast Don't Make Me Destroy You, where the character is actually trying to put off the impending death (or at least he is claiming that). A frequent, if highly unimaginative, Pre-Asskicking One-Liner or Pre-Mortem One-Liner. Contrast You Have No Chance to Survive, where the character telegraphs his death threats well in advance. Contrast I'll Kill You!, where the act wasn't premeditated. Other phrases that mean the same thing include "I'll Kill You!", "And now you die", "Time to die", etc. Here is a compilation with a lot of examples of the "Prepare to Die!" quote. |

In Pact, doing this is encouraged by the way in which the karmic system works. Telling someone that you are going to attack or kill them before you do it is tantamount to making a promise and then carrying it out, which has a positive effect on your karma and personal power. This is also used to justify Bond Villain Stupidity such as monologues. | |

Secret Six: The series plays with the trope a bit. Scandal is about to run wild through a group of security guards employed by a slaver. She says that they have 30 seconds left to live — enough to pray or make one last phone call. The guards look at each other... and some do start praying or leaving phone messages, having realized that they had it coming. | |

In the Fire Emblem series: Hector from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade uses this line when fighting Wire, the leader of the group of Black Fang assassins that attack him in the first chapter of Hector's story. Fire Emblem: Awakening: Lon'qu gets a similar line when fighting Leif in the "Champions of Yore 3" DLC. Frederick has a "say your prayers" variant. When he scores a Critical Hit, he'll sometimes tell his foe to "Pick a god and pray!" In Fire Emblem Fates, when Mikoto is killed in Chapter 5, an enraged Ryoma tells the assassin, "Vengeance will be mine... Prepare to die!" |

In Dark Souls, this is literally the tagline of the game. And you will die. A lot. And then, you will die again. Whether it's from a skeleton-behind-a-corner, an outright environmental booby trap, a fire-breathing dragon, an epic combo-boss, a zerg rush of mooks with covering fire and buffs, a sword-wielding wolf, lag (aka "excuses") or the most consistent killer of all (gravity + ledges), there are just so many ways for the game to kick your ass at every turn. While not as terrible a offender as it's successor, Demon's Souls manages to kill the player so many times that will make the casual, inexperienced gamer die over and over. Then again, both games are "love letters" of sorts to Nintendo Hard old school arcade games. |

The Night Unfurls: Original version: Chapter 16: As the hunters and Shamuhaza face off the first time, Kyril says he's just going to go up there and kill him. He doesn't get to do the deed, because Shamuhaza sends Luu-Luu to fight him, forcing Kyril to deal with her instead. Chapter 19: Sentencing Commander Berol to death by hanging, Kyril tells him, "Deal with it. Or pray, seeing as the hangman's noose waits for no man." Chapter 26: Kyril bellows "I HAVE COME FOR YOU!" to the fleeing rebels as he slaughters his way through their ranks. Remastered version: Chapter 5: Olga says "Die as you lived, human" to Kyril before summoning flames to burn him to a crisp. Unfortunately for her, he is no mere human. |

As seen in the pic, Fist of the North Star's Kenshiro often uses this as his way of declaring that a particular villain's actions are unforgivable. And when he says something like this? He means every word. And while, thanks to the anime, his "You Are Already Dead" became something of a meme, it was far more sparingly used in the manga. In fact, he only ever said it once. |

In the Rocko's Modern Life episode "A Sucker for the Suck-O-Matic", Rocko and Heffer desperately try to figure out how to shut off Rocko's new vacuum cleaner when it goes on a rampage and starts sucking up his entire house. The Suck-O-Matic then starts sucking the pages out of the instruction manual, and the manual's only advice as to what to do "if Suck-O-Matic sucks instructions" is "Prepare to die!", much to their horror. | |

Halo: Reach: I am SPARTAN-B312. You killed my teammates. Prepare To Die. Note that Noble Six (SPARTAN-B312) does not say this out loud, but it is the title of a sub-level/section of the level "The Pillar of Autumn." |

In Cowboy Bebop: The Movie, Vincent confers with his hacker subordinate about the status of their plan, and leaves with the cryptic command, "Say your prayers." Later, after the hacker confirms that he's done everything asked of him, Vincent asks if he said his prayers, and kills him. | |

Killtron the "magic death robot" is full of this in Stay Tooned!. Ironically, at the end of the Kartoon Kombat minigame, he says, "But I cannot beat you! I am not a fighter, I am a dancer! *sudden Mexican dance*" And then he promptly self-destructs simply "for your pleasure". Killtron also randomly gets right in your face in the hallway and says this by name, but you can get rid of him by flipping his power switch if you're quick enough. | |

In Act I Chapter 2, Max goes to visit his Russian gangster friend Vladimir Lem only to find him busy dodging bullets from Vinnie Gognitti and the Italian mob and hiding under a desk - Max's appearance, though, lets Vlad turn the tables on Gognitti's men with his reputation (with a bit of ham for fun): | |

I'll keep you here no matter what! ...Even if it means killing you 1,000,000 times!!! — Flowey Go ahead. Prepare however you want. But when you step forward... I will KILL you. — Undyne, if Papyrus is dead It's a beautiful day outside. Birds are singing, flowers are blooming. On days like these, kids like you... Should be burning in Hell. — Sans' pre-battle dialogue. Possibly an aversion, as he knows the player can respawn from their death. |

Dragon Age: Origins: When playing as a human noble, you eventually run into Arl Howe, the man responsible for betraying and killing your family at the beginning of the game. He's now the ruler of Denerim and acting as The Dragon to the game's Big Bad. When you try to call for blood rights against him, he laughs in your face about how he's framed your family as traitors to the country, meaning you no longer have any right to vengeance against him. Among several dialogue options, one is to tell him: "I'm going to enjoy slitting your throat." And in the game's next mission you do. In the City Elf origin, the Warden can tell the minor noble who kidnapped their entire wedding party as Sex Slaves that they're going to enjoy killing him. In camp, a drunken Oghren tells the Mabari this line when he thinks that the dog took his pants. |

The Fallout games in general will have little one-liners like this for the players that want to skip the conversation and get right to the shooting. Fallout 2: In Fallout: New Vegas, if you see Caesar on his invitation after accumulating a bad rep with the Legion, he'll tell you that it's all a trap and he's going to have you killed on the spot. Shortly after: "You crossed the NCR one time too many, now you die!"(NCR Ranger hit squad), or "The Caesar has marked you for death, and the Legion obeys. Ready yourself for battle!"(Legionary assassin squad). |

Star Trek: In an episode of Star Trek: The Original Series, the Enterprise is confronted by a powerful alien vessel that announces its intention to destroy our heroes, and goes on to say — "we assume you have a deity... or deities," and politely offers to give the Enterprise crew time to make "whatever preparations" they deem necessary. An unusually explicit example of this trope, where the opponent says "prepare to die" and clearly actually means it. And they're all the scarier for that. In an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "Where Silence Has Lease", the Enterprise-D encounters a similar situation, but the alien claims that between a third to half of the ship's crew will be killed as part of the alien's experiments about death. Picard tries a Take That! and starts the self-destruct sequence. Subverted in that the alien's experiments related to monitoring how humans reacted to the imminent threat of death without actually intending to kill them. Double-subverted in that the biggest threat to the ship and the crew in this context was Captain Picard himself, since he threatened to kill the entire crew, as opposed to letting the alien choose which of them would survive. The ending reveals that it's actually a TRIPLE subversion: Picard knew that the alien was actually interested in how humans react to the threat of imminent death, and calls the alien out on it, and gets the alien to confirm he was right by appearing to him. The Borgs' well-known stock phrase is a variation, as it implies a form of death, at least on a metaphysical level (the death of the individual). |

The Big O: "I will reset the world in my own image with my own will. But before I do that, I'll eliminate everyone who doesn't deserve to exist in my new world. And that includes you filthy scum!" It's not entirely clear whether he was talking about the poor people or the Union, but either way, it was just a little uncalled for. | |

Code Geass: This is practically Luciano Bradley's MO, but only because he enjoys it. Unfortunately for him, he runs into the receiving end of this trope courtesy of Kallen during the second battle over Tokyo. In that same battle, Lelouch, who has otherwise been lenient with Suzaku given their past friendship and various circumstances, sets his sights on killing his once best friend following the arrest during their would-be truce, which was made to look like Suzaku was responsible, and in Lelouch's eyes, made him out to be a full-bloodied backstabber. Well, not on his own, but he orders Kallen to kill him. |

In The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, Malefor says the line directly before his final showdown with Spyro and Cynder. What makes this note worthy is his general all around character makes it come off as truly threatening. It also helps that regardless of whether or not he wins, the Destroyer might finish them off with the world anyway, so he has a pretty good reason for telling them this. What makes it more effective is the simple fact that Malefor says this during the only time in the entire trilogy that he gets angry due to Cynder breaking free of his control thanks to the Power of Love. | |

At the end of The Pebble and the Penguin, Drake yells out "Say your prayers, Hubie!'' just right before being crushed by the very boulder he was going to use to kill Hubie. | |

Likewise, some Tiger Guards in the final level will warn you that you will die there. At the start of the boss fight against Marrow: |

In Star Control, the Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah are Affably Evil about this; they explicitly give their victims time to prepare for their deaths in whatever ways they deem appropriate, and offer the "comforting fact" to their victims that they might be reincarnated as Ur-Quan. | |

In Dragon Ball Z, Goku gives this after going Super Saiyan against Frieza in the heat of the moment after Frieza kills his best friend. However by the time the battle is over, Goku is content with the insult to Frieza's pride and abandons the fight. Not that Frieza will let him get off that easy. Vegeta loves boasting about his strength in general, but he veers into this as he fights Goku for the first time, as the fact that Goku is able to even put up a decent fight is that insulting to his pride, let alone that the fight brings him to near-death. He is similarly furious in the next arc when he discovers that Gohan stole his last Namekian Dragon Ball, screaming bloody murder. Combine this with Goku's passion, and you get Gogeta in Fusion Reborn: |

Transformers: The Transformers has several examples. Galvatron says, "Prepare, Autobots, to DIE IN DARKNESS!" at the beginning of Five Faces of Death Part 5, and Cyclonus says, "Autobots, prepare to die!" in The Rebirth part 2. Transformers: Prime - Predaking tells Ultra Magnus and Wheeljack, "Prepare to perish" after curb-stomping them both. He's interrupted by Optimus before he can follow through. |

Invasion U.S.A. (1985): Chuck Norris's character said "It's time to die..." to the Big Bad in the past, before kicking him into unconsciousness. This caused the Big Bad to have nightmares and to wake up screaming every night. When the final showdown occurs, Chuck's character just says "It's time...". And then he blasts the Big Bad out of the top story window with a rocket launcher. | |

In an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "Where Silence Has Lease", the Enterprise-D encounters a similar situation, but the alien claims that between a third to half of the ship's crew will be killed as part of the alien's experiments about death. Picard tries a Take That! and starts the self-destruct sequence. Subverted in that the alien's experiments related to monitoring how humans reacted to the imminent threat of death without actually intending to kill them. Double-subverted in that the biggest threat to the ship and the crew in this context was Captain Picard himself, since he threatened to kill the entire crew, as opposed to letting the alien choose which of them would survive. The ending reveals that it's actually a TRIPLE subversion: Picard knew that the alien was actually interested in how humans react to the threat of imminent death, and calls the alien out on it, and gets the alien to confirm he was right by appearing to him. | |
