A/N - I don't own any of these characters, lyrics or content, except the story itself.
Please enjoy and review
Now the nightmare's real
Now Dr Horrible is here
To make you quake with fear
To make the whole world kneel
(Everything you ever...)
And I won't feel
A thing...
One hour before the tragedy
Abby was livid. Barney was engaged to be married. The fool who had caused her to trust no man was getting married. She couldn't believe it. Why of all the men in the world did he have to be the one who was getting married?
'Well' Abby thought to herself,
That man deserved all that she could throw at him. Not least making his fiancée pay for all that he had done.
It had been easy really. She had waited for the doctor to go to lunch the day before, then sneaked into her office, stole a couple of injection needles and ran back out again. She had also organised a shipment of Rohypnol from a friend of a friend who dabbled a bit in recreational drugs. Now all she had to do was get a good spot in the church and pull the trigger at exactly the right time for hell to break loose.
Present time
Abby was starting to think this wasn't such a great idea, hiding in plain sight where anyone could see her, especially not the love of her life Ted Mosby.
'Crap' she thought,
'I have to get out of here'
Ted and Marshall soon caught up with her outside the church.
'What the hell did you think you were doing?'
Ted blasted at her, his face bright red in anger
'Robin didn't do anything to you and now she might die because of you'
Marshall gasped from his place beside Ted.
Ted looked up
'What is it, Marshall?'
'I know you,' he said pointing straight at her.
'You're that girl who told all of Barney's conquests to stay away!'
Ted gasped as he took one hard look at the girl who once loved him, but he didn't love back.
'Abby' he thought
'You are too' Ted said
'And I bet you thought it was a great idea to ruin Barney's love life once and for all.'
Abby looked up at them guiltily.
'Well' said Marshall
'Let's see what Barney thinks of all this'
As they cornered her against the church door, and dragged her kicking and shrieking body back inside the church foyer to put her under citizen's arrest.
'No'
Abby thought
'Anything but that'
'Ugh'
Robyn woke up slowly trying to catch her breath.
She felt like someone had drugged her and couldn't make sense of anything,
'Barrrrrnnneeeyyy'
She slurred,
'What's going on?'
Barney squeezed Robin's hand
'Take it easy Scherbatsky; the ambulance will be here soon.'
'You'll be ok sweetie, I'm sure of it.'
Lily said, looking over Barney's shoulder at her BFF.
'Lily'
Barney said, annoyed.
'Sorry Barney'
Soon enough, the ambulance arrived and the paramedics immediately went into action.
Barney followed them as they put Robin into the ambulance and checked her vital signs.
He was about to follow her into the ambulance from the church foyer when Ted and Marshall walked in dragging Robin's attacker in-between them.
'Hey Barney'
Ted and Marshall said pushing Abby ahead of them so that she couldn't get free.
'Do you remember this lady, by any chance?'
Barney glared at the blonde haired green eyed gal in front of him.
'Of course it had to be you' he said angrily.
'No other girl I've had the pleasure of being with would try to kill Robin to get back at me.'
Abby flinched but didn't say a word.
'Get out of my sight,' Barney yelled at her
'I'll deal with you later, my fiancée is deserving of way more of my time, than you will ever have.'
He said as he brushed past her seething into the ambulance behind Robin.
As Ted, Marshall and Lily stared daggers into Abby's eyes, she finally realised what a horrible thing she had done.
For Lily, Abby was long dead to her.
