Sacrifice and Death

Back on the blue moon, Mark and Timmy still looked terrified. Mr. L was the only one that looked like he was ready for a fight.

The Top Eliminator stated, "No magic wand can stop us, Chosen One. We'll just keep coming in greater numbers than before. And it is time you finally met the Darkness."

Mr. L threated, "Hey back off, bad-look-alikes-of-Brobot. You will have to go through me first."

Just then, more Eliminators showed up - holding wands. But just as Timmy was about to call off L, the Eliminators holding wands turned into their friends.

Jorgen huffed, "And us as well!"

Terrance yelled, "Duck Timmy!"

Tamara added, "Oh but don't get your pants dirty!"

Timmy grabbed L as the three of them ducked. Everyone blasted the Eliminators with fairy and island magic plus fire, ice, and star powers. The Eliminators are destroyed as the trio got up.

Timmy gushed, "Cosmo! Wanda! " He paused and asked, "With my mom and dad?" He added, "You saved me!"

Terrance replied, "You bet we did!" He turned to Cosmo and added, "By the way, Dinkleberg poop sandwich, Monday."

Mario went over to L and asked, "So, why did you come?"

L answered, "My own business, sir-jumps-a-lot."

Mario smirked as he stated, "Couldn't have anyone else kill me?"

L hissed, "Watch it, you are thin ice."

Mario couldn't help but laugh as Timmy had Wanda poof up a unicorn for Trixie.

Chester grabbed Timmy and shouted, "I hate to interrupt this greedy/weird/romantic moment but…" He pointed up and yelled, "There is a whirlpool of death coming for us!"

Timmy ran over to the wand, took the wand out of the ground, and went over to its holster.

He proclaimed, "Now say goodbye to the Darkness…forever!"

With that, Timmy slammed the wand into its holster, creating a pulse. The wand extends up but does nothing.

Nacey commented, scared, "That isn't right..."

Jorgen explained, "It should be firing a laser that blasts back the Darkness or something but it is not firing the laser!"

Just then, the Darkness started to suck in everyone. Trixie, Merlon, A.J., Tippi, Chester, Cosmo, Wanda, Poof, Mr. L, Mario, Peach, Violet, Mark, Crocker, Dark Laser, Vicky, Nacey, Jorgen, and Bowser. The Koopa King was the only one keeping them on the ground. And he was starting to lose his grip.

"Crud!" He complained. "I'm gonna be defeated by wind!"

Jorgen yelled, "Turner! Say the word and I'll poof us all out of here!"

Timmy protested, "But no matter where I go, the Darkness will follow me!"

Terrance asked, "What does it want?!"

The Darkness groaned, "Timmy Turner."

Timmy replied, the wind flowing through his hair, "I think it wants…me!" That's when Timmy ran up the chain. Everyone protested but the kid did not stop. He told them, "I've got to stop the Darkness before it takes you all!"

That's when Timmy got to Trixie, whom was near tears.

She pleaded, "Timmy, no. Don't do it."

Timmy smiled at her as he replied, "Just don't worry about me. It will ruin your perfect hair." Trixie blushed but she blushed more when Timmy kissed her. She returned it, completely in love. Timmy broke the kiss as he looked at the Darkness and stated, "You want me, Darkness?! You got me!" He turned back to Trixie and added, "So long, Trixie."

With that, Timmy let Trixie's hands go as he flew towards the Darkness.

Trixie cried out, "Timmy!"

Timmy screamed, "I love you, Trixie!"

He thought but didn't add, 'I love you too, Doc.'

That's when the Darkness took Timmy and flew off.

Everyone shouted, "Timmy!"

The wind stopped as everyone fell onto the cold surface of the blue moon. Trixie looked up at the space where the Darkness once was.

She yelled, "I love you too, Timmy!"

Trixie broke down and cried. Violet went over to the crying girl as she held her in her arms. Trixie cried on her shoulder, sad and depressed. The atmosphere was damp with sorrow.

Vicky sadly proclaimed, "I'll never call him a twerp again!"

Mark wrapped his tentacles around her as he started to flirt, "There, there Vicky. Let me hold you and comfort you and make out with you…" That's when Vicky punched him in the stomach and added, "I lack air."

Bowser breathed, "The kid...did it..."

Peach cried, "He's a brave soul..."

Mario whispered, "Timmy...no..."

Mr. L was standing at an edge as he was in shock. That's when he heard a voice.

"Did your little friend bite the dust, L?"

Mr. L's POV

I saw Dimentio there as I raised an eyebrow. Was he here to get me? And if so, how did he know about Pink-hated-beaver-face?

Sir-jumps-a-lot hissed, "Dimentio, stay away from him! Can't you see we just lost a friend?"

Dimentio snapped his fingers as he stated, "Silly plumber, I don't care about you."

Sir-jumps-a-lot made a fist but it was stopped by an invisible barrier. He kept pounding. Why was he doing that? I ignored that as I turned to Dimentio.

I answered, "Dimentio, I am stumped. I thought Pink-hated-beaver-face was supposed to be alive after defeating the Darkness?! Ugh...doesn't matter anyways. There's no way I can show my face to Count Bleck after THIS."

I spun around to not face the jester, a bit upset at myself. Just when I thought I was gonna go find a new propose to my existence, an explosion at my feet made me jump. It was Dimentio and he was smirking.

He stated, "Perhaps that is for the best..."

I yelled, "Hey, what the hell are you doing?!"

Pretty-princess-in-pink shouted, "Hey, let him go!"

That's when they all started to pound on the invisible barrier. What were they doing? Were they trying to save me? Why?

Dimentio explained, "You said it yourself. You can't go back to the count. So get lost."

I hissed, "Not a funny joke, Dimentio. If I wanted to laugh, your face is inspiration is enough!"

Dimentio replied, "Such temper! Your nostrils, they flare out like the hood of a hissing cobra! I can't have you around the count. If I am rid of you here, I won't be found out. And the others will never find you. Yes, this is my moment to grasp. It's time for you to take your final bow, Mr. L..."

That's when I saw a yellow sheer box around me, entrapping me inside. I struggled but it was no use, I couldn't get out.

I responded, "Hey, now! Whoa! What's this! You've lost your mind, Dimentio!"

Koopa-that-has-a-weight-problem even shouted, "Hey, let him go!"

Dimentio chuckled and said, "Shshshsh, don't worry. It won't be so bad, I promise."

I heard body-cold-as-ice started to say, "Dimentio. Don't do it!"

He snapped his fingers and a whole bunch of explosions went off, hurting me badly. Dimentio...so you were playing with me all along. You just wanted me out of the way so you could have your moment with sir-jumps-a-lot. Very well played. So, this is how my game ends. Drowning in the Lake Twgyz. How ironic since the start, my mind has been flowing like a river. I could see everything so clearly and Brobot L-Type was perfect.

Yet sir-jumps-a-lot, pretty-princess-in-pink, koopa-with-a-weight-problem, and body-cold-as-ice defeated me. How the hell was I defeated so easily? Was I too weak? No, that couldn't be it. I couldn't be as weak as one of those juniors, could I? My sole purpose was to kill sir-jumps-a-lot for Count Bleck. After I did that...I don't know. Perhaps I would've killed the rest of them too and kept body-cold-as-ice for my own needs.

She was beautiful...that sweet Vi... And then I met Pink-hated-beaver-face. While he didn't beat me like those heroes did, there was just something about the kid that reminded me of sir-jumps-a-lot. Maybe it was his bravery. Maybe it was the way he was trying to stop me from entering battles that even I knew I had no chance of winning.

That kid had a lot of spunk. He did what he needed to do in ordinary to save his world, even those who weren't from it. I squinted my eyes, with the feeling that my lungs were going to pop. So this was how it was going to end... How pathetic. And...why did I call her Vi...? Why did I do that? I usually call her 'body-cold-as-ice'...

I closed my eyes for a moment and for some reason, after I did, everything felt so...scary... Why...? Why was I, the Green Thunder, scared? I was never scared but my heart rate was increasing. All of this information seemed to flown by me - information that I never knew. That's when my world went dark...

...Mario...save Timmy...

Back on the blue moon, practically everyone was crying now. Mario was crying hard, letting the Pure Heart he was clutching touch the blue moon. He didn't know why he was crying so hard. Sure, Timmy's act was admirable. But Mario couldn't help but feel responsible for what Dimentio did to L.

Granted he and L didn't see eye to eye - but the way he came to this dimension to try to help... It reminded him of Luigi. Upon thinking of his baby brother, he started to cry more. He had been a terrible brother. He couldn't stop everything to even look for his baby brother. Now two people might have been dead because of the battle.

"Timmy just saved our lives! We have to save him!" Nacey stated strongly, though still in tears.

"She's right, the Darkness is still in the Milky Way Galaxy. If we hurry, we can catch it," Jorgen added.

"And then?" Peach asked, though her voice soft.

"We see what we can do for L or Luigi," Nacey answered, sniffling.

"Let's do it," A.J. stated strongly.

Mario nodded in agreement as they left the blue moon and the bad memories behind. There was still a chance to save Timmy, at least. Mario felt a twinge of guilt but he knew that they had to do something fast. 'Hold on guys, we're coming,' Mario thought.
