We finally find out what Sandy will do after Plankton kills her SpongeBob. Enjoy!
Chapter 20: Retribution
Plankton shook Neptune off, causing him to careen into a metal pillar head-first, knocking him out. Plankton laughed evilly, "Now that SpongeBob's gone, now to get rid of my other main threat!" Though Sandy heard him, she didn't care anymore. With SpongeBob dead, what was the point of living for her? She whispered to SpongeBob's corpse silently, "I don't care if I die, Spongy. If I die, I'll join you in the great beyond, and we'll be together forever…" She trailed off as she continued crying.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, Sandy's fists clenched. She opened her eyes as her grief was replaced with nothing but pure rage. She let go of SpongeBob's body and stood up with a frightening and threatening glare on her face. She growled under her breath, "You killed him… YOU KILLED HIM!" Her breathing was still rapid. All Plankton did was smirk, "Foolish squirrel! If your precious SpongeBob couldn't stop me, how can you?" Sandy growled, "YOU KILLED SPONGEBOB, AND NOW I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Flames burned in her eyes and feelings of utter love and rage fueled her heart. Tears still escaped her eyes as she looked at her love's killer. She was going to avenge him. She had to finish the mission SpongeBob was sent to complete. Some of the people in the crowd started to cheer her on. Mindy smiled. Sandy's not letting SpongeBob's death be in vain. She looked around to see that Patrick, Squidward and Mr. Krabs joined in the crowd, who started to chant Sandy's name. Mindy took this chance to wake her father up. Plankton growled, "NO!" The crowd continued chanting to motivate Sandy, tears in some of their eyes as they could feel the love that bound her and SpongeBob. Plankton roared, "OKAY YOU ALL ASKED FOR IT! KAREN, BRING OUT MORE REINFORCEMENTS!" Karen turned to Plankton, "Since when did you have reinforcements? I thought the tanks were the last resort.." Plankton interrupted, "Well I lied!" Karen sighed and opened a garage-like door that was conveniently placed next to Plankton's throne. A bunch of small robots rolled out with electric batons and large fists.
Sandy started walking, slowly and menacingly towards Plankton. He was her prime target. She didn't care for the robots. She just kept walking slowly. Every robot that crossed her path was destroyed in cold blood. She kicked one with ease, then power punched another. She grabbed one unlucky robot with one hand then broke it in half and threw its remains on the ground. Plankton growled, but deep inside, he was afraid. Karen faced her husband, "Told you. That squirrel has charisma and strength. You better do something to her or she'll overthrow you back."
Plankton lost it and stood up, scepter in hand. He faced Sandy, who stared back. She had seen enough Western movies to know that this was a classic standoff. In the background, everyone else was fighting the remaining robots. Plankton and Sandy glared at each other. Tears still rolled down Sandy's cheeks. Plankton saw this, "You know you can't beat me, squirrel! SpongeBob's dead and you're just a teary mess. You also seem to have forgotten that I'm the supreme ruler of the sea! NOBODY stands a chance against me!" Sandy growled. She had enough of Plankton. She wanted to get rid of him for good. She yelled, "I don't care for any of that! You killed SpongeBob, and now there's nothin' here stoppin' me from beating your behind to death! I'm here to finish what he started and I'm here to avenge him!" Plankton ignited his scepter while Sandy started sprinting at him. She made a fierce battle cry as she sprinted towards the protozoa. Plankton fired his scepter. Sandy promptly dodged it and performed a hard kick in Plankton's center, causing him to get knocked back. Plankton growled. Due to his increased height as king, he had an advantage over Sandy, but Sandy's speed and strength easily countered Plankton's height advantage. Sandy dodged Plankton's punch and slid between his legs. She climbed on his back and hung on his antennae, then she swung her legs into Plankton's eye. Plankton screamed in pain as he started rubbing his eye, shaking Sandy off of him.
Meanwhile, Mindy was busy trying to wake her unconscious father up, "Daddy! Wake up! Sandy's in trouble and SpongeBob's dead!" She repeatedly shook Neptune, refusing to give up. Back in the action, Sandy used her strength to grab Plankton by his antennae and throwing him on the ground. Plankton took a moment to recover and swung his scepter like a bat, hitting Sandy across the room and into a wall. Luckily for her, her helmet didn't break. She got up to see Plankton aiming at her with the ignited scepter. He fired it straight at Sandy, who narrowly dodged it. Plankton started running at her. Sandy made a karate stance and waited. Plankton suddenly jumped over her and fired his scepter again. Sandy tried dodging, but the fire hit her tail. Sandy screamed in pain while Plankton laughed evilly. She fell to her knees as she groaned in pain. She felt her tail, which was burnt beyond belief. She panted and got back up. Plankton aimed his scepter at her again. Sandy lunged for him again. Plankton grabbed her by her legs and slammed her into the ground, nearly paralyzing her. Sandy screamed even louder as pain filled her entire body.
Plankton walked up to the fallen squirrel. Sandy tried crawling away, but Plankton kicked her in the stomach, causing her to groan in pain and lay on her aching back. Sandy panted fearfully. She tried to roll back onto her stomach, but the pain unbearable even for her. Plankton stood over her smirking, "I told you not to mess with me, and now you'll pay the ultimate price!" He laughed evilly. Sandy stared at him fearfully and angrily, tears starting to escape her eyes again.
Mindy saw the scene in progress and started shaking her father faster, "Dad! Daddy! Plankton's still attacking!" Neptune's eyes shot open. He held his sore head and got up. He asked Mindy, "Daughter? What's going on?" Before Mindy could answer, Neptune looked around and saw Plankton finishing Sandy off. Mindy gasped. Neptune glared, "This cannot be! He's abusing the crown! Plankton's not gonna get away with this! Not while I'm around!" Neptune started swimming his way to Plankton.
Meanwhile, Plankton started a speech, "Ladies and gentlemen, as king of the sea, I decree, YOUR TIME IS UP, SQUIRREL!" Sandy scared and started hyperventilating as Plankton's scepter ignited. Plankton aimed the burning scepter at Sandy's head, "You'll be joining your lover SpongeBob soon." Sandy started screaming, fearing the end for her. At least she would likely be able to see her darling sponge again. Accepting her fate, she closed her eyes, whimpering as tears rolled down her cheeks. As soon as the others stopped fighting the last robots, they gasped at what Plankton was about to do. Before he could fire, Neptune knocked Plankton out of the way, causing his scepter to fire at a wall instead of Sandy. Sandy gasped when she heard the scepter fire. She opened her eyes to see that she was alive. She looked around and saw Neptune battling Plankton again. Sandy also saw SpongeBob's body a few yards away. She rolled onto her stomach, which caused more pain to shoot throughout her entire body. She tried her best to ignore the pain, then started slowly crawling to her boyfriend's body.
Plankton growled and aimed the scepter at Neptune, but Neptune punched him square in the eye, causing Plankton to let go of the scepter. Neptune quickly grabbed the scepter and fired at Plankton, severely burning him. He then walked toward the fallen tyrant, who started begging for mercy, " Neptune, please! I wasn't planning to kill you or your daughter! I just wanted to lay waste to those who humiliated me time and time again!" Neptune wasn't buying it, "Plankton, never in my history as king of the sea have I seen an act as sinister and evil as your plans. I'll take that crown back if you don't mind!" He swiped the crown off of Plankton's head, causing him to shrink back into his old tiny height. Plankton looked around to see he was small again. He growled, "I may be small again, and I may not be the king of the sea anymore, but my main objective is complete! I rid the world of SpongeBob Squarepants!" He started laughing evilly again. Neptune shut him up by firing his scepter at him.
The final battle was over and Neptune was king of the sea again, but SpongeBob's death was too much of a tragedy for anyone to celebrate, but little did they know that Sandy held the key to bringing him back.
We are almost done! Stay tuned!
