Uh-oh, Anti-Cosmo's in big trouble! It looks like the good guys now have the advantage. Will Timmy and Queen Diamond save the universe from another Anti attack?
Chapter 10: Don't Dwell on the Past
Queen Diamond, using the power of the Royal Fairy Crystal and Timmy Turner's pure heart, freed Timmy from his trap while keeping the Anti-Fairies away. Once Timmy was free, he leaped up and kissed Diamond.
It was a long kiss, a kiss of freedom, of hope.
Of true love.
"Ok lovebirds, break it up! We've got a universe to save," Cosmo interrupted.
"For once, Cosmo's right," Wanda admitted. "The Royal Fairy Crystal can't hold back the Anti-Fairies forever, not while they have the Dark Crystal. Who knows how long that barrier will hold?"
"You won't have long to wait, Fairy Queen!" a voice cried from behind them.
The Dark Crystal, from which the voice came, suddenly levitated off the table it lay upon. The Dark Crystal then shot out a ray of darkness. The darkness then turned into an Anti-Fairy: Black Diamond.
"Your powers have activated my Crystal!" Black Diamond cried. "And whatever you're thinking of trying to destroy me, don't do it! Your powers created me. Our powers are linked. And even if you could kill me, you don't have the guts to do it. You are too attached to preserving life. Your time on Earth as Tootie proved it! Helping helpless animals, bah! Your nothing but a coward."
With a jolt, Timmy realized that Black Diamond was right. Well, not about Tootie being a coward. That part was way off. Tootie wouldn't remove herself from that old tree in Dimmsdale Park, not even when it was about to be bulldozed. That took guts.
No, what Black Diamond was right about was that Tootie couldn't kill anything. But as Queen Diamond, her one goal was to correct her one mistake: creating the Anti-Fairies. Which part of Tootie would prevail?
Queen Diamond looked at Black Diamond squarely in the eyes. "I will not kill you, Anti-Queen," she announced.
"Diamond, what are you doing?" Wanda cried. "The Anti-Fairies are evil, and your opposite is the worst of them!"
Diamond ignored Wanda, and continued to talk directly to Black Diamond. "The reason you still exist, the reason you were able to break free of your bonds, was because I tried to destroy you," Diamond stated. "Destruction is not in my nature."
The Royal Fairy Crystal began to glow. "I was trying to fix a mistake I made centuries ago," Queen Diamond continued. "But no one, not even I, can undo the past. We cannot fix our mistakes, we can only learn from them. I intend to do that, by not killing you."
Tootie, what are you doing? Timmy demanded mentally.
Trust me, my love, and be ready to lend me your heart. Diamond replied.
"So, you'll let us go, to do as we please?" Anti-Cosmo asked sarcastically, as if he didn't believe the Fairy Queen.
"No," Diamond answered. "I intend to help you Anti-Fairies learn from your mistakes."
And with that, the Royal Fairy Crystal shone brighter that ever before, as did Timmy's pure heart. Queen Diamond placed the Crystal on floor of Anti-Cosmo's castle, and a ray of light from Timmy's heart shone upon it.
And the Royal Fairy Crystal began to grow.
