Hey guys. I have some really bad news.
This is... the end... of complete insanity.
I'm so sorry.
But I feel like... I need to move on. That complete insanity has been great while it lasted, but it's time to come to a close.
Thank you for all your loving support.
Enjoy this one last chapter...
Kathleen gasped. "The.. the end? of Complete Insanity?"
I sighed. "It's true, Kathleen. This is the end."
There was silence in the room. Although the contestants didn't care to admit it, they loved CI and all the memories that they had made here.
"But.." Kiseki stammered. "What about us? Where will we go?"
Masamune gave a cuddle to his girlfriend. She began crying.
I sighed. "On to a better story..."
"So, you won't start Complete Insanity 2? At all?" exclaimed Alexa.
"No. I won't." I looked away. I head a few people burst into tears.
"Buh-buh-BULL..." Benkei sobbed.
"I love you all!" Kathleen exclaimed, pulling everybody into a group hug.
"Ugh," sighed Serpentine. "I'm gonna kinda miss you guys."
"Well, it's time to say your final goodbyes, everyone. Come on!" I clapped, and everyone was teleported to a beanbag-filled room.
"Well.." Alexa said. "I'll start. Gingka, you're the light of my life and the sweetest person I've ever met. I love you!"
The two blushed and hugged. I grinned.
"Er," Kiseki said, "Masamune, you're the most fun and hilarious boyfriend I could ask for."
Masamune grinned. "Thanks, Kiseki!" He wrapped his arm around her.
"Tate-Kyo-" Jin began, but the greenhead held up a hand.
"Shut up, I love you."
He pulled the smaller girl into a kiss that deserves to be remembered in all of anime history.
I wiped a tear. "Darlings."
"Uh, Serpentine," Damien said, "You are perfect. Enough said." He lightly kissed her forehead. The white-haired girl turned pink.
"Sakyo," Ryua said, "What more can I say? You're mine." She kissed him, and Ryuga started clapping.
Kathleen turned to me. "Cookie, you're the best authoress I could ever ask for! I love you like a sister!" She hugged me, and I hugged her back.
"Well, I have a few parting words as well." I stood up.
"First of all, I'd like to thank each and every one of you for supporting Complete Insanity for 20 whole chapters. This is such a big milestone and I feel like it's an important one in this document's history.
Second off, thank you so much for reading CI and taking the time to laugh along with us. I feel like I know each and every one of you personally. You are part of the CI crew- you were as soon as you started reading way back when in chapter 1.
To our beloved canon characters, thanks for tolerating us. We as authors, OCs, and authoresses are honored to have you here with us today.
And lastly, this story has been on fanfiction for less than 2 years, but already we have 50 reviews, over 15,000 words, and over 2,000 views. Wow! I never anticipated this story to go this far.
I am so proud that you've all stuck with me through thick and thin, through not updating and updating daily, through having bland chapters and exciting ones."
Applause rang out from the OCs and characters. I gave a little bow.
"This IS the absolute end of Complete Insanity. This is the very last Complete Insanity ever..."
I heard more sobbing.
"...because we're changing our name to In My Fictional World!"
Dead silence.
"You guys REALLY thought I was going to stop writing these? Heck no! This is the last Complete Insanity, but the very first In My Fictional World will soon begin!"
Everyone started cheering again. Hugs and kisses were exchanged all around. I smiled.
"I need to talk to the OCs for a moment- so I'll leave you all here."
I pulled the OCs aside in a separate room. 20 minutes later, we all came back out.
"Well, it's about time for us to sleep," I gestured to the cookie-covered wall clock. "See you all in the morning."
Everyone said their classic goodbyes, heading off to their rooms for a long sleep...
"Gingka woke up in his own bed, with Pegasus right on his nightstand. He felt a strange throbbing in his head, but he could not remember where it was from. With a yawn, he got out of bed and went over to the desk in the corner of his room.
On top of the desk was his phone, with a few texts from Madoka and one from Kyoya. With a frown, he noticed a text from a strange number which he'd never seen before. All it said was, "I won't forget you."
Gingka frowned. Guess someone got the wrong number. With a small shrug, he looked over to the corner of his desk. The window was ajar, and right below it was a little blue plate with a single chocolate chip cookie on top of it.
He couldn't remember eating any cookies the night before, nor bringing any up to his room. There was nothing odd about the cookie or plate- they were just a normal cookie and a normal plate. Nothing abnormal.
His phone buzzed and he went to pick it up. A new text had arrived from Masamune. It read:
Heya you big winged baby! :D
Did you bring cookies over to my house last night? There's one on my counter and I don't know how it got there.
Gingka responded:
No, I didn't. There was one on my desk too! Weird, huh?
Asking around, he got the same response from all of his friends. Nobody knew where the cookies came from, but they all had one. And nobody mentioned anything about a strange text on their phone (though he suspected the two events had no correlation.)
All Gingka did know was that something important had happened that he had forgotten- and that his friends were all part of it.
Alexa looked down at her phone, then up at Kathleen. Gingka had not yet responded to her text- then again, he had forgotten all about her. All of them did.
When Cookie had pulled them aside, she had grim news. Sadly, she was going to have to wipe the memories of all the canon characters. It was part of her job as a fanfiction authoress. She had asked the OCs if they wanted to forget all about CI, to which all of them had said no.
Kathleen smiled at her a bit sadly. "Hey- I'm pretty sure one day, they'll all remember. Nothing is permanent- I found that out the hard way."
Alexa smiled halfheartedly. Around her, the other OCs were all in a state of slight distress. Ryua and Jin both were hugging, both silently crying with no words left to say. Kiseki was playing a card game with Serpentine, and neither looked amused.
Kiseki looked up and sighed. "Kathleen, they're gone. We can't have them remember us now..."
Ryua agreed. "I miss Sakyo so much. I hope he's doing well."
"I miss my big brother... and Tate-Kyo..." Jin added.
Serpentine peeked out of the window to see the brunette authoress, with a pen in hand, beginning to write a new story. As her pen touched the paper, colors flew out of the ink like tiny sparks.
The sight filled her with a new kind of hope- one that bubbled up and swirled around inside of her like a newly lit flame.
Serpentine gave a cattish grin, and turned back to face the other OCs.
Nothing is permanent.
"You know what Kathleen?
I bet they will."
Aaaaah! Done!
You guys liked the plot twist? :D
Okay, okay, I'm sorry. That was a little cruel.
But yes, this is the end of CI. IMFW will soon be coming out. I estimate the date to be late November-early December depending on the amount of publicity it gets.
More info on IMFW will come out in a different document. However, you can start submitting OCs right now!
Please do not submit truths or dares for IMFW YET. I'm still working out all the details for the storyline.
I hope you guys liked the ending. It was a bit bittersweet, but I feel like CI deserved a proper sendoff.
Thank you so so so much for falling in love with this story as much as I did.
I can't wait to see you all soon!
Love,
Cookie
