Hey hey hey bros! I'm back! This was actually a pretty long wait! But now, I'm back! Ponystoriesandothers wrote this chapter this time! Whoop whoop!
GuardianAngel1234567: Well, not really. Riley began to be terrified of him, making him be one of the fears in the Subconscious and he hated being in there so he wanted revenge on Fear for making Riley be scared of him. Makes sense now? :D
Razorback 234: Coolio! And thank you! :)
Tripledent: It wasn't exactly opened, it just was creaked. Let's just say he forgot to shut it all the way. And yep, he's got this! :D
ponystoriesandothers: YAY! And thank you! :)
Orangebird124: Whoop whoop! And wow, how many cliffhangers are there? XD And thank you so much! Wait no longer! :D
Jokermask18: Thanks again.. ^^
lordhaxsupreme: Will he win? Hmm...read and find out! And thank you!
Enjoy!

Alternato, now a weakling, padded away from Fear. The nerve was holding the light bulbs, and took a step towards the villain. His apprehension had vanished, and he suddenly felt confident. There wasn't a danger anymore. On the other hand, Alternato was shivering, feeling even more powerless. He had no strength, no power.
"Surrender!" Fear said, almost fiercely, to Alternato. He held the light bulbs as if they were power weapons.
"No.." Alternato breathed weakly. "I will never surrender to you, beanpole."
"Then you will have to suffer!" Fear cried courageously. He took a few more steps towards Alternato, like a police officer arresting a criminal. Alternato whimpered. He used his last ounces of strength to run away, bounding like a rabbit. He rushed away into the darkness of the Subconscious, the shadows hiding him.
Fear, using his speed, rushed into the shadows. He felt a few nervous tingles, but he shook them off, searching for Alternato.
"Alternato!" Fear called. "Stop this! I have your Orbs of Power!" He heard faint footsteps running away. He followed them, perking up his ears. "Alternato!"
"You fool!" Alternato cried, his figure faintly visible in the shadows. "You may have my powers, but you will never defeat me!"
Fear shook his head. "You're powerless!"
"Yes, but you will never catch me! I will find another way to fight against you!" Alternato yelled. Suddenly, he disappeared again, his footsteps echoing throughout the Subconscious. Fear sighed, clutching tighter to the light bulbs. This is going to be harder than I thought, he thought.
Fear explored the Subconscious, keeping a good speed. The light bulbs gave him a little light, like a candle. Alternato seemed to have disappeared. However, Fear knew that he couldn't go too far, due to his lack of power. He passed the broccoli forests, giving them a harsh glance in case Alternato was hiding within their branches. Nothing was there.
Fear continued, even daring to peer down into the basement. No Alternato. He saw Grandma's vacuum zooming around, but there was still no Alternato. Or so he thought.
"So you think you can take my powers, beanpole?" someone growled, making Fear's nerves shiver. "Then I will have to destroy you!" It was Alternato! He limped up grandma's vacuum, using his last ounces of energy. However, it was worth it to destroy the enemy.
"What are you doing, Alternato?" Fear questioned, naturally stepping backwards.
"Say goodbye, beanpole!" Alternato mocked, now on top of the giant vacuum. An evil grin had spread across his shadowy-face. He sunk his claws into the vacuum, making it whirr madly. Suddenly, the vacuum faced Fear, rumbling the ground.
"Uh.." Fear started to panic, and sweat poured down his face. The vacuum roared even louder, beginning to ascend.
"This is revenge, Fear!" Alternato cackled, as the vacuum zoomed towards him. "Let's see how you like to die!"
Fear, with his heart in his throat, fled for dear life. He used his quick speed to run away from the noisy vacuum, controlled by the villain. The vacuum was destroying everything, knocking over half of broccoli forest. Parts of the roof and wall flew around everywhere. It was like there was a giant earthquake making its way through the Subconscious.
Fear continued to flee, covering his eyes from the gigantic, destructive vacuum.
"GET BACK HERE, YOU LITTLE BEANPOLE!" Alternato hissed, causing even more destruction as he followed Fear. The vacuum was right on his tail, and Fear could feel it pulling him in. He held the light bulbs to his chest, trying his hardest not to let them go.
"Can't.. Let.. go.." he muttered, as the winds grew stronger, and Alternato's laughter became more audible. The wind was tugging on his legs, and he felt his strength draining. The vacuum was becoming stronger and stronger, and Fear couldn't take it much longer.
"You have no chance, you fool!" Alternato beamed weakly down at him. Fear noticed controlling the vacuum was slowly killing him. He also knew that once he was defeated, Alternato would get his power back through the light bulbs. And it seemed very likely to happen. Fear kept on running, when he suddenly tripped, the vacuum above his head. It was over.
He almost felt the crying. He was about to be defeated, taken away, and Riley would suffer. It was all his fault. There was no hope. The world seemed to slow down, like it does when your demise is near. Alternato's lack of power. The light bulbs in Fear's arms. Can't let go, Fear thought. Then he got an idea. Can't let go!
Fear rolled along the floor, like a ball. He quickly got to his feet, ignoring the sweat on his face and neck. Alternato scowled down at him.
"Running away again, beanpole? You will never escape!" He grinned, as the vacuum ascended towards him.
"Maybe not.. But I can't say the same for these!" Fear yelled back, holding up the light bulbs. Alternato glanced at them. Fear, still holding them high above his head, fled for the exit, to one destination: The Memory Dump.
Alternato, feeling suspicious, weakly commanded to vacuum to follow the beanpole. Fear shoved all of his energy into his thin legs, the exit in sight. He clutched the lights harder than before.
"What are you doing, you crazed bean?" Alternato questioned, snorting. Fear, with probably the strongest push he had ever done in his life, shoved open the Subconscious door. His eyes were on the edge of the purple platform, which lead to the Memory Dump. Grandma's vacuum smashed through the giant wooden door, like Jangles had done on Joy and Sadness' adventure.
Fear was now at the edge, shivering at the Memory Dump. That dark place made him squeak, almost as much as the Subconscious. But now, it was place he needed to be more than anywhere. Trying not to look into the depths, Fear held the lights over.
"NOOOOOO!" Alternato screamed. "DON'T YOU DARE, DON'T YOU DARE!" He was now showing real panic. This was the most fear he had felt ever. He felt sad, too. This could be his death. "Please.. No.." He leaped off Grandma's vacuum towards Fear, limping like an injured animal. He held out a shadowy hand, like he was attempting to harm Fear.
Fear turned to him, almost sympathetic. It was hard, seeing Alternato struggle like this. He was on the floor, almost moaning in pain. If Fear dropped them into the Subconscious, Alternato would die. Besides, Fear himself had made him do this evil revenge plan. Now he was about to die. Then he thought of Riley and his friends. What Alternato had done to him.
Fear gazed at Alternato one last time. "Sorry.." he begun. "Not sorry.." He flung the light bulbs into the Memory Dump without a second glance.
