Phetiamwantip: It will be, and I will
Agent BM: Thx
Ariana Labastida: The story is coming close to an end, and I do plan on doing the sequel
Wearing tin foil, Evangeline and Wyldstyle blended into the kragle room. "There it is." said Evangeline, spotting the kragle.
"We just have to sneak away, so we can get you to it." replied Wyldstyle. As they tried, Wyldstyle accidentally bumped into a robot.
All eyes suddenly went on them. "I don't recognize you two, what sector are you from?" asked a robot.
"We're transfers from the last level." answered Wyldstyle in the best robot voice he could imitate.
His voice made the others suspicious. "You must have frog in your throat, cause your voice sounds a lot like a human." Evangeline told him in her robot voice.
"I'm doing the best I can. This is my first time being a robot." Wyldstyle said back.
"What are your robot ID numbers?" interrogated another robot, as they surrounded the two. Suddenly, Evangeline started beat boxing, and sang, "Everything is awesome".
"Hey I love that song." said a robot.
"So do I." replied another.
All the robots began singing with Evangeline, and she tried to get Wyldstyle to sing too.
"I told you, I don't sing that..." Wyldstyle tried to tell her, but then all the robots looked at him with glowing red eyes.
Then he began singing, and while the robots were singing they snuck away.
"(Chuckles), I love that song." said Evangeline.
"Don't know why." remarked Wyldstyle.
"It's catchy. And you know Wyldstyle I know you put on this tough aggressive demeanor, but I don't think you're mean." she told him.
"Mean? I'm not mean. What gave you that idea?" wondered Wyldstyle.
"I mean you're were saying how I was useless and untalented, and how I couldn't possibly be the special. That really hurt." Evangeline informed him.
When they got to their location in the air duct. Wyldstyle got a guilty look on his face, as he looked out from the duct.
"(Sighs), look Evangeline, I'm sorry I said that about you, it's just that...I was jealous." he admitted to her.
"Jealous?" wondered Evangeline.
"I know that's real mature, but I wanted to be the Special; I wanted to be the one to save the universe. I was at the construction site looking for the piece, but then I saw you, and realized that you were meant to be the one. But I truly am sorry."
Evangeline looked down at her feet, then back up at him. "I forgive you. And when we first met and you said that I was the most extraordinary, special, and talented person ever, it was the first time someone ever told me that. And it made me feel like I was all those things."
Wyldstyle took off his tin foil mask. "You still wanna know what my real name is?" he asked her.
"Yes, what is it?" asked Evangeline.
"My real name...is Lucas."
"Lucas. That's a really nice name." replied Evangeline, as she took off her mask.
The two leaned in closer, reaching their hands out to each other, when Batgirl dropped in. "Hey, what are you guys talking about?" she asked.
"Oh, nothing." said Lucas nervously.
"Nothing at all." added Evangeline.
"Thought I'd give you guys a hand. Left Unitiger to stall the robots." Batgirl explained.
Back in the conference room, Unitiger was on the table babbling.
"Work, work, work, business. Are you buying this?" he said.
"Yes." answered a robot.
"Whew."
Back with the others, Evangeline saw Bad Cop watching the kragle from his post. "Good luck girls, I'll give you my signal." said Lucas, leaving them.
"Hey, Lucas wait. This may be goodbye for us." Evangeline told him.
"I don't really like goodbyes. Just say, "see you later alligator". Lucas replied.
"See you later alligator."
"In a while crocodile." Lucas told her back, and then he left.
"Who's Lucas?" wondered Batgirl.
"Uh, don't worry about it. Now the room is filled with audio sensors, so we have to be very quiet." said Evangeline.
"Don't worry, Evangeline. I read your instructions." answered Batgirl, as she got her grappling hook gun ready.
"Hey Betty, how's it going with disabling the shield?" asked Evangeline into her walkie-talkie.
"It's coming along." answered Betty, nervously.
She was trying to tell Lady Business' computer to disable the kragle shield, but every time she asked, the computer said something completely irrelevant.
In Bad Cop's post, he got a call on his walkie-talkie. "Bad Cop here." he said, answering it.
"Lady Business would like to see you in her office." said Lucas in his robot voice.
"Be right there." And he left the room
Lucas snuck in, beat up the robots, and waved to Evangeline and Batgirl.
"There's his signal, but Betty and Fluffytail haven't taken down the shield yet." said Evangeline.
"Then we'll have to wing it." Batgirl told her.
They took the cover off the end of the wall, and Batgirl shot the grappling hook around a column in the ceiling, and the two swung out to the device.
"Betty, disable the shield now." said Evangeline into her walkie-talkie.
"I'm trying. Disable the shield!" commanded Betty to the computer.
"Could you please repeat that?" asked the computer.
Betty yelled in frustration.
"Let me try." Fluffytail piped up. "Disable ye shield, now matey."
"Disabling shield." replied the computer.
"What?" asked Betty flabbergasted.
The shield covered the kragle went away, and Evangeline landed on the platform it was on.
"Now to end this once and for all." she said to herself.
She held the Piece of Resistance close to the end, and was just about to put it on when suddenly, she saw Bad Cop and the robots come up behind Lucas.
"Lucas, look out!" she shouted.
Lucas turned around, and tried to fight them off, but the robots tied him up with rope.
"No!"
An alarm went off, and the platform the kragle rose, and Evangeline fell off. She and Batgirl were captured, and so were Unitiger, Betty, and Fluffytail.
Vitruvia had wandered into the Think Tank room, and ran into Lady Business. "Ah, Vitruvia so good to see you again." Lady Business told her.
"Likewise." Vitruvia shot back.
"By the way, I found your little army."
Bad Cop and the robots brought Evangeline and the others still tied up.
"Sorry, we almost had it." said Evangeline.
"Excellent work, Bad Cop." Lady Business complimented
"Thank you ma'am." Bad Cop replied.
"Robots destroy this old lady." she commanded. The robots surrounded Vitruvia.
"Actually I prefer experienced." Vitruvia replied. She then fought off all the robots, breaking them into pieces. Everyone cheered for her.
"See good will always triumph over..." Vitruvia said, but she was cut off when a spiked disc took her head off!
Everyone gasped as her body fell to the floor, and the green stone from her staff shattered into pieces. Lady Business caught the spiked disc. She chuckled evilly, and said, "Should've seen that coming, Vitruvia."
"No!" Evangeline cried, tears formed in her eyes.
Vitruvia's head rolled in front of her. "Evangeline I must tell you about the prophecy." she said.
"I know, I have to save the universe and I tried, but..."
"I made the whole thing up." Vitruvia admitted.
"What? Why?" asked Evangeline shocked.
But Vitruvia didn't answer, she had just passed. Everyone had somber looks as the robots took them away.
As Evangeline was taken away, she thought she saw a piece of the green stone glow.
"Wait." she said.
"What's wrong?" asked Lady Business.
"I just have a small request."
"What?"
"I want that piece of stone."
Lady Business looked at the shattered pieces on the ground.
"Fine, not like it's useful to me."
Evangeline quickly picked up the piece she saw glowing, and put it in her pocket. Lucas and the others were put into cells like the other Master Builders, and Evangeline strapped to another device.
"So I guess you're not a special as you thought huh? Must've been nice to have that for a while, no one ever told me I was special. But you know what now it won't matter, cause no one will be able to be free to do what they want anymore." said Lady Business, as she cut the Piece of Resistance off Evangeline's back.
She then took the Piece of Resistance, and threw it out the window. Everyone protested, but could only watch as it fell.
"Bring out the Kragle." she ordered.
The nozzle for the device then came down from the ceiling.
"Computer set the timer for 100 seconds."
"Yes, ma'am." replied the computer.
"When that time runs out you'll all be electrified and terminated, and Evangeline you'll be able to watch me kragle your hometown." said Lady Business.
"No!" Evangeline protested.
"Hey, it isn't anything personal, it's just business." said Lady Business. And the top of the building detached itself from the rest of it, and flew off to Brickburg.
In the city everyone was just going about their business when Lady Business' ship appeared in the sky. The people got a little bit frightened.
"Attention citizens of Bricksburg, I have a question for you all." announced Lady Business over the speakers.
Everyone looked confused.
"Would anyone like a taco?"
The citizens cheered and began running around excitedly.
"Perfect." she whispered.
While everyone was in a frenzy, she let out the nozzles, and they began spraying kragle on the citizens, causing them to freeze in their places.
The ones who didn't get frozen ran away screaming, and to combat this, Lady Business sent out her drones to make the people stay still. Evangeline and the other Master Builders watched as Lady Business carried out her plans on the computer screen.
"Evangeline what do we do now?" asked Betty.
"Why are you asking me?" wondered Evangeline.
"Because you're supposed to come up with a plan, you're the Special." replied Unitiger.
"Didn't you hear Vitruvia, she made the whole thing up. I'm not the Special; I never was." Evangeline remarked, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Lucas felt sorry for Evangeline as he saw her lose her spirit.
"Evangeline." called an echo-y voice.
She looked around, and saw her pocket was glowing. After wriggling her arm, she managed to pull the glowing green stone from her pocket.
From it a small spirit of Vitruvia appeared.
"Vitruvia, but you're dead."
"I know, but my spirit went into the broken pieces of the stone. I must tell you, the reason I made up the prophecy. I did it because I knew that whoever found the piece could save the universe, it didn't have to be a specific person. You are a very special person Evangeline, you just have to believe in yourself."
"But how?" asked Evangeline.
"Because the whole universe's depending on you. If you need me I'll be in the stone." replied Vitruvia, and she went back into the stone. Evangeline put it back in her pocket, and saw the timer was on thirty-four seconds.
She had to think fast, she had to get the Piece of Resistance back, and save the others. After looking around, she saw that the device she was connected to was also connected to the timer.
She rocked herself back and forth, and once she and the main device were free from the platform, she rolled over to the hole in the window.
"Evangeline what are you doing?" called Lucas.
Looking outside, she saw that outside the building the clouds swirled around a dark abyss.
"Lucas, I have to go now." she called to him.
"What are... what are you...?" sputtered Lucas.
"You can be the hero for a while."
"Evangeline no."
"I'll see you later alligator."
"NO!"
And with that Evangeline let herself fall out the window, and down into the darkness.
