Meanwhile, Cherry, Lionel, and the others were making their way to Maleficent's hide-out. Cherry looked darkly intense and serious.
"Mrs. Schwartz, you're scaring me a bit... Are you angry?" Chrissy asked.
"I'm sorry, but yes, I really am," Cherry replied. "I've wanted Maleficent out of my life ever since I first met her when I had to help out Sleeping Beauty AKA Princess Aurora the first time I met her."
"You met her another time?" Kimberly asked.
"Yes, but that's another story for another time." Cherry replied.
"Right," added Lionel. "This is the time to get our firstborn son back. We got a plan to get LJ back to himself, but what about dealing with Maleficent herself?"
"I'll slice her head off Medusa style." Cherry said.
"That sounds dark, even for you." Ash spoke up as he and the others summoned came with him.
"Ash? I thought you were back at the hotel?" Cherry glanced at the aspiring Pokemon trainer.
"LJ and Zofia summoned us here, so we're going to help out." Ash replied, showing himself along with Emi, Lee, Akito, Estelle, Vincent, Jenny Foxworth, his girlfriend, Serena, and even Clemont.
"Thanks," said Lionel. "To save LJ, I know we're definitely going to need everyone to help out."
"Hmm... Fair enough..." Cherry replied. "I guess it can't be worse than everything I've faced in Waverly Place with that wizard family."
"You mean the Russos?" Serena asked.
"Yes..." Cherry said sharply. "Wizards vs Werewolves... Wizards vs Vampires... Wizards vs Angels... Also that time when the Disney Villains took over the House of Mouse on Halloween... That time in Halloween Town with Kalabar's revenge..."
"Jeez, Aunt Cherry, you, Mom, Dad, and Uncle Lionel have been through a lot." Vincent commented.
"Kid, you have no idea." Cherry replied.
"But I feel that this may be one of our biggest challenges yet," Lionel added. "I just hope we can save him... I don't think I could actually bear to fight my first son."
"It's a challenge..." Akito commented. "Like that time I went rogue just because I was mad at my dad."
"...Ah. Right," nodded Lionel. "I remember he told me about that... But the time for reminiscing is at a halt. I think we're here."
Cherry looked very steely-eyed and vengeful.
"Your mother is scaring me." Kimberly said to Zofia.
"You'll get used to it." Zofia told her.
They soon came into what looked like a world with no hope or happiness around. It looked very depressing as there was only vile atmosphere in the air that was almost always filled with hostility. It was a lot like the state of New Jersey.
"Saw that one coming..." remarked Martin, as he dodged an energy blast.
"We might have to face some obstacles, so get ready." Cherry warned.
"Got it." Martin replied.
Knucklehead guards soon glared at them.
"I believe you'll let us in." Cherry demanded.
"What if we don't want to?" One guard huffed.
"Well, then guess what?" Cherry mocked excitement. "The first time a girl is going to touch you in your little special place!" she then grunted as she slammed her foot down on the floorboard they were standing on which soon swung up and hit both of the guards between their legs and fly up in the air a bit.
Raul, Dib, Martin, and the male Rugrats winced audibly.
"He's gonna feel that one in the morning..." Phil remarked.
"Bra-vo, you got past some stupid pig-freaks," said Mandy. "Now you've got me to deal with. I think Magneto said it best, but I say it better: foolish heroes... Welcome to DIE."
"Oh, hi, Mandy." The group greeted a bit flatly.
"Maleficent must've needed a mascot." Cherry commented to the others.
"Or a janitor," replied Giffany. "This is a pretty old castle..."
"I'm going to murder you ALL!" Mandy snarled. "And then Maleficent will grant me the power I've craved, instead of that little twit. So he thinks she looks attractive out of her disguised form, big deal! He's just dipping his feet into the evil side of the pool, while I've been submerged in that end for my entire life!"
Cherry yawned a bit. "Yeah, I've been to Hell and back myself," she then said. "Hell's really nice this time of year."
"Well, when I'm through with you, YOU'RE NEVER COMING BACK TO THE SURFACE!" Mandy glared.
"Heh! That's what they said when I fell from Mount Ebbot and met Sans, Papyrus, Toriel, and all those other characters." Cherry chuckled indifferently.
"Ah..." Lionel replied. "Sounds fascinating, you'll have to tell me about it sometime. After this."
Mandy gnashed her teeth. "SHUT UP AND PAY ATTENTION TO ME!" she roared as she shot blue flames at the group.
"Ooh, that's new." Cherry said with a swift dodge.
"I'M NOT MESSING AROUND THIS TIME!" Mandy snapped. "PEOPLE WILL FEAR THE NAME 'MANDY'!"
"...Nah, that doesn't sound scary," replied Tommy. "I mean, try saying it out loud!"
"Oh no, run for your lives, it's... Mandy," remarked Dil, giving it a shot. "Yeah, I see what you mean. The only thing scary is how pathetic it sounds."
Mandy soon shot at them with the blue flames, taking them down since they were off-guard.
"Alright, we may have walked into that one..." Tommy replied as he brushed himself off, hardly even scorched.
"But hey, fool us once, shame on you." Dil added.
"You wanna talk shit or fight?" Mandy glared.
"Funny, the first thing seems to be all you're good for." Zofia said.
"Whoo! Go, Mandy!" Billy beamed, changing into a cheerleader like Genie cheering for Aladdin against Snake Jafar.
"Ah, shaddup!" Giffany retorted, trapping Billy inside a homemade proton pack Dib had assembled using his technokinesis power.
"Mandy, Mandy, she's our man, if she can't do it-" Billy began.
"GREAT!" Zofia said, shooting magic against Mandy that she learned from Merlin.
Mandy got smacked back into a pillar before Lionel and David quickly tied her to it.
"Now... I'm only going to ask once, so listen carefully..." said Cherry, for although she kept a calm face as she approached Mandy, she radiated an essence of true fear. "Where... Is... LJ?"
"Why should I tell an old hag like you?" Mandy glared.
"Maybe because your life depends on it," Cherry replied. "You may be a child, but I'm not going easy on you."
"And if you don't, then I'll strangle you and stare into your beady little eyes as your life slips away." Lionel added.
"You can try!" Mandy glared as she soon shot them away with some magic that was loaned to her.
"I've faced worse than you!" Cherry snapped.
"How do you always win anyway?" Mandy complained. "Who said you could go on adventures all the time?"
"Oh, girl, you do not know my life," Cherry narrowed her eyes. "You're pretty much Adolf Hitler in little girl form."
Mandy cracked a smile (literally). "Thank you..." she smirked. "For that... I think I'll make your souls my slaves once I kill you all!"
"Oh, I feel so lucky," Cherry rolled her eyes. "As much as a long-tailed cat in a factory of rocking chairs."
"Enough of this crap!" Lionel remarked, subduing Mandy once again.
Mandy soon called out.
"If you're not going to help, I'm going to find my baby myself... Meanwhile, you can probably play with my pet." Cherry said.
"Pet?" Mandy asked.
Cherry took a deep breath and her eyes soon widened as she summoned a certain white tiger with purple stripes.
"Kimba!" Lionel smirked. "Wait for us, hon!"
Kimba snarled as he lunged at Mandy, claws bared. Mandy growled as she began to shoot magic and fight at Kimba, but no matter what; she would lose against him. As the group went inside, leaving Mandy and Kimba alone.
A princess was shown to be shuffling a deck of cards.
"Quinn of Hearts, what are you doing?" Akito complained.
"Ah... Come to play?" The Princess of Hearts smirked.
"Hardly," Zofia replied. "We've come for my brother... And to fight if necessary."
"Very well then... We can fight..." The Princess of Hearts smirked, stepping back with her card deck before spreading them out on the floor.
As the cards were spread across the floor, they began to glow, and what looked like guards soon stepped out of the cards with their own scepters which looked like Spades.
"A card shark, huh?" Zofia replied.
"She gets that from dear old Mother~" The Queen of Hearts smirked as she came by.
"The Queen of Hearts!" Akito, Estelle, and Vincent gasped.
"So good to see you again and your heads while they're still attached." The Queen of Hearts smirked to them, fanning herself with a Heart club of her own.
"Try not to lose your heads," David advised. "I take it you know the elephant in the dress?"
"Oh, yes, we've met along with Felicity before you guys were born," Akito replied. "We were taking a walk together on a bright and sunny afternoon... There we met Alice, her sister, and her cat, Dinah, then we went on a crazy adventure together into Wonderland."
"Luckily the White Rabbit was able to help us out in the end since I fixed his watch after The March Hare and Mad Hatter destroyed it." Estelle added.
"Hmm... Okay then," said David. "Let's mow 'em down!"
Akito soon used his crystal magic to give them all weapons. The card guards soon ran on in to attack with their Spade scepters. The Princess of Hearts smirked, stepping back a bit like she felt like she had won this fight already, picking up a hedgehog-like Pokemon known as a Shaymin.
"Okay, Fishy Joe, your time to shine..." said David as he threw out a PokéBall, which opened up to reveal a Swampert.
"I hear ya, man. Let's hang these creeps out to dry!" Fishy Joe replied.
Everyone else soon decided to bring out their own Pokemon.
"Whoa... Tommy, can we have some Pokemon?" Dil asked. "I've heard of 'em, but I only saw trading cards of them like Yu-Gotta-Go."
"Augh, don't remind me of that old card game." Chuckie groaned.
Quinn's Shaymin growled at the other Pokemon before rolling up into a ball, running them all over suddenly.
"Fishy Joe, use MudShot!" David exclaimed.
The Swampert inhaled and fired out blobs of mud at his enemies.
Shaymin growled before stopping in ball-form. "I'm gonna chop your heads off!"
"You can try!" Lee's Arcanine smirked. "Let's see how you like a little fire, hm?"
"Arcanine, Flash Fire!" Lee told his Pokemon.
"On it!" Arcanine replied before shooting fire while Shaymin jumped up to avoid it.
"HA!" Swampert exclaimed as he was suddenly engulfed in a watery aura and launched towards Shaymin, knocking into it. "Aqua Jet, sucker!"
Shaymin yelled out and gurgled a bit.
"Nice shot!" David smiled at the Pokemon.
Meanwhile, Lionel, Cherry, Kimberly, and Chrissy were making their way to Maleficent's chamber to deal with her and Despara and save LJ. Cherry led the way with pure hate in her eyes which scared Kimberly and Chrissy a bit.
"She looks like Aunt Aria when I forget to do the dishes." Chrissy commented.
Kimberly nodded as they eventually arrived.
Azazel turned to see them. "Who are you, and what do you want?" he asked.
"LJ... Whaddyou mean?" asked Lionel in disbelief. "Don't you recognize your own parents?"
"Ridiculous," Azazel scoffed. "Maleficent is my mother."
"She's corrupted him." Cherry realized.
"Get out of here before I get rough with you," Azazel glared at them. "My mother doesn't like uninvited guests and if you don't leave, I'll teach you the true meaning of pain."
"We need to hold him off..." Chrissy remarked before Despara shot out and smacked her into a wall.
"Yeah, good luck with that," Despara then grinned. "What say we handle these interlopers, brother~?"
"Sounds like a plan to me, sister." Azazel replied as he began advancing towards his parents.
"I'm really sorry about this, dear, but this is going to hurt me more than it's going to hurt you." Cherry said, channeling her inner magic.
"Whatever you say, Grammy." Azazel smirked.
Cherry's left eye seemed to twitch before growling behind her fangs and she soon shot out, charging toward Azazel until he hit with her with some of Maleficent's magic that was transferred to him. "Gah!" she then yelled out as that scorched her a bit.
Kimberly began to sweat bullets as she worked in the background to set up the last few stages of the plan. "I hope I can make it in time..." she said to herself as she continued.
Meanwhile, Chrissy unleashed a sonic screech at Despara, leaving her disoriented and causing the gem in Hadie's hand to vibrate. Despara growled in pain and annoyance.
"How do ya like that?" Chrissy smirked to her.
Despara rubbed her sore ears as they ached.
"Almost got it... And... Done!" Kimberly beamed as she finished. "And not a minute too soon, either..."
Azazel had Cherry in his grasp, holding her by the scruff of her shirt. "It would appear that this is the end..." he smirked. "Any parting remarks?"
"You are so grounded..." Cherry grunted. "I know we're not close like Hamlet and Queen Gertrude, but you don't have to kill me!"
Just then, music began to play, as Kimberly cleared her throat and tapped her microphone. "Don't lose your way, with each passing day; You've come so far... Don't throw it away~" she sang. "Live believing... Dreams are for weaving; Wonders are waiting to start, Live your story... Faith, hope and glory; Hold to the truth in your heart~"
Everyone soon glanced over a bit as time seemed to stand still.
"If we hold on together~," Kimberly sang before looking to Azazel with tearful and hopeful eyes. "I know our dreams will never die, Dreams see us through to forever, Where clouds roll by, For you and I~"
Azazel's grip faltered, as he released Cherry. He looked on, agape, as tears began to well up in his eyes.
"It's working..." Lionel realized. Chrissy, better make it a duet!"
Chrissy nodded, getting an extra microphone and joining Kimberly. "Souls in the wind... Must learn how to bend; Seek out a star, Hold on to the end~"
"Valley... Mountain, There is a fountain; Washes our tears all away~" Both girls sang. "Words are swaying... Someone is praying; Please let us come home to stay~"
Azazel glanced over a bit.
Cherry soon stood up and backed up a bit from her son.
"No! Don't listen to that!" Despara cried out. "That's not even real music!"
"Aw, shut up." Cherry said, hipping her away suddenly as she stood beside her.
"If we hold on together~" Chrissy and Kimberly sang together.
"I know our dreams will never die~," Kimberly sang. "Dreams see us through to forever, Where clouds roll by~"
"For you and I~" Chrissy and Kimberly sang together.
"When we are out there in the dark~," Chrissy sang on her own next. "We'll dream about the sun, In the dark we'll feel the light, Warm our hearts, everyone~"
Throughout the whole thing, Azazel's dark aura seemed to be draining away from his body.
"If we hold on together, I know our dreams will never die~" sang Kimberly. "Dreams see us through to forever... As high as souls can fly; The clouds roll by... For you and I~"
At that point, Azazel began to sniffle, as a tear rolled down his face.
"Well, they can both sing." Cherry said.
Lionel nodded proudly. Chrissy and Kimberly then bowed their heads, though they glanced a bit to see how Azazel was reacting.
Azazel... Or LJ ran over to Cherry and Lionel and hugged them. "MOM, DAD, I'M SORRY I ALMOST KILLED YOU!" he sobbed. "GROUND ME, TAKE AWAY MY STUFF, JUST PLEASE DON'T ABANDON ME!"
"Oh... There, there... It's okay..." Cherry said, patting him on the head. "...Somewhere... Just not here."
"So you let him break free..." Maleficent's voice was heard, but she was not seen.
"Mother, I was so close!" Despara cried out. "Those Sirens just sang him out of submission somehow!"
LJ wiped his eyes. "...They took control of me with this... Weird gem... It was like I was a prisoner in my own body..." he explained. "But whatever I did, I swear I'm sorry! I'll do whatever I can to make up for this! I'm gonna be an even better son than I was before, and you guys won't need to abandon me for being a freak!"
"Baby, we would never abandon you," Cherry told him. "And you're not a freak. You're mostly eccentric and quirky, I mean, you're a lot like your father. You know that, don't you?"
LJ sniffed. "Mm-hmm..."
"Besides...you're our son, and we love you," Lionel replied as he hugged him. "No matter what."
"I love you guys too!" LJ exclaimed. "And I'm going to make things right, starting here and now!"
"That's what we like to hear," Cherry replied. "As long as you try your best, we'll still love you no matter what."
Chrissy looked over as she looked slightly jealous of LJ's bond with his parents as even though Cherry wasn't bright and cheerful, smiling all the time like many mothers, she still seemed to love her children equally and truthfully.
LJ walked over to Kimberly and Chrissy. "And girls? I just wanted to apologize if I hurt you two or the others in any way. I love both of you with all my heart." he explained to them.
Kimberly and Chrissy then instantly hugged him. LJ nuzzled up against them a bit in the hug.
"We love you too." Kimberly and Chrissy both told him.
LJ glanced on with a smile as he seemed to see a spiritual manifestation of his alter-ego, Leo Quad.
"Welcome back, bud." Leo Quad smiled.
"Right then..." said LJ. "First we should go deal with Maleficent for good, then with her out, the other villains will fight each other to seize control and make it easy to beat them."
A sword was soon shot against the wall, narrowly missing Cherry.
"Mrs. Schwartz, you okay?" Kimberly asked.
"I'm gonna assume Captain Hook threw that sword," Cherry deadpanned as the sword was inches above her head. "He's not a villain, he's a joke."
"I'll make ye pay for what you've said about my father..." A boy smirked, standing with his blonde sister.
"Hello, Harry... Hello... Harry's sister." Cherry replied, not recognizing the blonde girl.
"I am CJ Hook." The girl told her.
"Riiiight," Cherry replied. "At least you look more competent and strong-willed than your father and brother. I'll assume you take after your mother... Whoever that might be."
"Red Jessica." Harry and CJ replied.
"I don't believe I met her." Cherry then said.
"She was in Jake & The Never Land Pirates," explained LJ. "So yeah, I can see why not."
"You will not scare me like you did the last time, Madam Cherry," Harry smirked, looking up at the gothic woman. "You'll haveta try harder than sneaking up on me."
"Try scaring you again?" Cherry replied. "That's not very hard to do. I'd scare those Smee twins, but they're actually very sweet."
"Yes... They should be working for me and not eating cake and being happy and being nice and-" Harry glowered a bit.
Cherry then raised a fist, looking like she was going to hit him until he soon screamed and ran away.
Lionel snorted. "What a doofus... Let's just cut thru the peanut gallery and skip to the boss battle." he remarked.
CJ soon brought out her sword with a steely-eyed glare. Cherry brought out her own sword, then began to sword-fight against Captain Hook's younger daughter with a bit of a stoic look on her face. The group cheered Cherry on as she continued her sword-duel against CJ. Cherry yawned, cupping her mouth a little with her free hand.
"Hmph, not bad for a grown-up." CJ huffed.
"At least you're more interesting than your brother, but that's not saying much," Cherry replied. "That's like saying Ashton Kutcher's more entertaining than Tom Green."
CJ looked confused about the reference which then allowed Cherry to slash the girl's sword out of her hands before backing her up against the wall.
"Make yourself useful and teach your big brother to grow a spine, he's more pathetic than your father." Cherry said, threateningly, but still stoic.
CJ nodded and quickly skittered away.
"Well, now... On to the boss battle!" Lionel shouted.
"We'll take her on all at once." LJ replied. "This time we settle things once and for all!"
Queen Grimhilde, Jafar, and Cruella glared.
"Your kids all say hi," Cherry smirked to them just to piss them off. "They're having a good time, especially with Felicity. Not to mention hanging around the children of Dopey the Dwarf, Mulan and Shang, and Fairy Godmother."
And the group raced up the stairs, laughing their heads off.
"That girl and her stupid adventures." Jafar complained, mostly talking about Cherry.
"Ah, nuts to you, bozo!" Lionel snapped, turning Jafar into a squirrel and having him be stung by angry hornets.
"Wow, that was random," Cherry commented. "I mean, the squirrel and the hornets thing?"
"I was feeling particularly smug." Lionel replied.
"All right then," Cherry said. "At least we don't have to worry about their kids coming at us."
They soon came into the throne room and had to come to a stop as there was a dramatic height going up to Maleficent who had her back turned at first.
"Villains... Disney Villains could get along a lot better without you meddling in the stories you were sent to visit," Maleficent growled, turning dramatically at each turn towards Cherry. "You... You had to be one to come in random adventures to help the heroes stop us. Without you, we probably could've won easier. Understand? This is between you and me, Cherry. Though, even if the Isle of the Lost hosts rude and violent people, and since you've made it this far, I'll tell you the tragic tale of our people."
"Cool. Plot." Cherry said.
"It all started long ago..." Maleficent began, though something made her stop. "No... You know what?"
Dramatic music soon began to play.
"SCREW IT!" Maleficent growled. "Why should I tell you the story when you're about to die?!"
"Wrong, you're the one going to die," said LJ. "Bring it on, Witch Bandora!"
"This is between me and your mother..." Maleficent glared, shooting the others away. "Come, Cherry, we must battle."
Cherry leaned forward with a growl as she brought out a spear that had the text "Former Property of UNDYNE" on it.
"I don't know who this Undyne is, but she's not going to help you now." Maleficent glared.
"Unlike you, she's a friend of mine," Cherry retorted. "Choose your weapon, Maleficent."
Maleficent soon took out her scepter to hit with and both cast spells from. "I can manipulate anything and anyone," she then seethed. "I'll manipulate your timeline so it'll be as if you never interfered in your little adventures to begin with."
"Don't you DARE!" Lionel scowled. "Do that and we'll kill you together... As a family!"
"Maleficent, the Good Fairies, Atticus, and I were able to beat you once, we can do it again." Cherry replied.
"Not to mention when you tried to take over The Magic Kingdom!" Zofia soon called out as she came by with her own training wand.
"Welcome back, sis," LJ smiled. "Time for a Family-Style Smackdown!"
Despara peeked her head out.
"You did your best... Now it's time for Mommy to work alone." Maleficent told her daughter.
Despara nodded, then backed off.
"Get ready to taste the pain, Rita Repulsa!" Lionel remarked.
"Rita Repulsa?!" Maleficent sneered. "Really?!"
"Your voice is screechy enough." Cherry replied dully.
"Also you have pointy horns on your head," said Lionel. "Rita had that whole pointy horns thing going on for a while until Zordon's energy wave purified her and Zedd."
Maleficent soon shot them away with a random blast of magic, turning them into random animals.
"I see a hint of Yzma's potion was helped in that magical blast." Zofia growled, carrying her wand in her mouth as a bulldog puppy.
"Whatever," LJ remarked, as a goat. "Time to ram in some justice!"
"Maybe ya'd like to take her head on before she tries anything else." Zofia suggested to her brother.
"Gladly!" LJ replied as he leapt at Maleficent, headbutting her in the stomach.
Maleficent grunted, and soon used more magic to turn them into baby versions of themselves.
"So original." Cherry deadpanned before sucking her thumb.
"Alright, that's it!" Zofia glared, then shot her wand at Maleficent, turning her into a green pig.
"I see you've been practicing some magic, young sorceress." Maleficent remarked.
"Yep!" LJ replied as Maleficent's spell wore off, returning them to normal.
Maleficent soon grabbed her scepter, shooting more magic. Cherry soon used her spear as a baseball bat, hitting the beams back like baseballs in a way that Undyne taught her.
"She's really learned a lot from that Undertale place," Lionel commented. "If I had to guess anyway since I wasn't there."
"Still, pretty amazing," said LJ. "GO, MOM! KICK HER A-UM, BUTT!"
"When did you get so good at fighting?!" Maleficent glared.
"Training with Undyne, Batman, Chun-Li, Luna from Mortal Kombat, and many, many more!" Cherry retorted as she nearly had the upper hand against The Mistress of All Evil.
"Also me!" Lionel added. "She's legendary!"
Cherry and Maleficent soon continued to fight each other. Cherry soon roared and she soon turned into her own dragon form which seemed to be bigger than Maleficent's dragon form. Lionel's jaw hit the ground with a KLANG! Cherry soon grabbed Maleficent with a snarl.
"You're going to kill me?" Maleficent replied. "Well, go ahead, Cherry. That's your life goal in all your adventures, isn't it? Didn't they tell you back in the underground that it was kill or be killed?"
"No, I'm not like that," Cherry growled. "I'd never kill anybody, even if they're as heinous and vile like you."
"And even if she TOTALLY DESERVES IT!" LJ shouted. "I'm so over her 'attractiveness' now. Now I just want her gone."
"LJ, you sound like your father when he had that crush on Harley Quinn." Cherry then said.
"That was a LONG TIME AGO!" Lionel exclaimed. "I was young, inexperienced, and stupid! I don't like to talk about it!"
"Anyway, Maleficent, I want you gone," Cherry soon said. "Leave Mal be in the Auradon Kingdom with my godson. Take your villain friends with you and I won't get rough with you."
"What happens if I don't want to?" Maleficent replied.
"I'll make you wish you all never met me the next time I visit Auradon now that the barrier has been shattered," Cherry growled, pulling Maleficent's face close to her own with murder in her eyes. "You may be The Mistress of All Evil, but I can make things happen far worse than any of you can even imagine."
"She's not wrong!" Lionel replied.
"Oh... All right..." Maleficent soon said. "I'll leave you and your family be."
"I really mean it, Maleficent." Cherry replied.
"So do I." Maleficent stated simply.
"You'd better." Lionel added firmly.
"I'll be watching..." Cherry told Maleficent before turning back into her normal form. "Like a griffin over fresh eggs."
"Fine... We'll leave." replied Despara, coming over to her mother to help her.
"You had better if you all know what's good for you," Cherry said. "It took me time to get used to Mal, but now that she's a good friend of Felicity's, I consider her as another daughter."
Maleficent scoffed. "Then she's your burden now." she retorted as she and Despara left.
Cherry narrowed her eyes a bit before she soon collapsed onto the floor.
"Mother! Mother!" Zofia cried out.
"She must be exhausted from the fight." Lionel guessed. He then rolled up his sleeve, made a small incision on his arm, and held it under her nose.
Cherry grunted and soon woke up looking all around in slight exhaustion from battling Maleficent like she did.
"Welcome back, hon," said Lionel. "Now you can either help yourself, or I can put a bandage on this cut I willingly made on myself."
"Help me sit up a little." Cherry said.
Lionel nodded, helping her sit up a bit and she soon began to cure herself of the exhaustion. "There ya go." he then said with a smile.
Cherry soon fluttered her eyes a bit as she stretched and began to stand up with a very loud shriek-like yawn.
"Better?" Lionel asked.
"Yeah..." Cherry replied. "Let's go back to our vacation. It can't possibly get any worse from here, can it? I beat Maleficent. Again."
"Yep," replied Lionel as he put on a bandage. "All that's there now is Mandy, and at best, she's a gnat."
"Oh, you mean like those nearly perfect prototypes of The Powerpuff Girls that have a villain like that?" Cherry asked.
"Close enough, I guess." Lionel shrugged.
"Yeah, babies? Those Powerpuff Girls you see on TV now aren't the ones we once knew," Cherry then told the kids. "Especially since Blossom now lives with Dexter these days since they're all grown up now."
"That makes a lot of sense..." LJ replied. "Even though those new ones are barely on TV anymore..."
"Good enough for me." Cherry said as they soon left the room.
