The sun still shines at noon, but through the clouds, it still feels like night, let alone the Midnight Hour. Strangely, there's no Revenants anywhere. Still, the Midnight Society and Hunting Party are on edge. It's like a classic hunt. Only…the stakes are higher than ever.
And we're heading deep into the woods. It's a long stretch, but it SHOULD lead into where the undead are mostly known to be: The Cemetery.
We're all equipped with our strongest gear. From masks and spells to weapons and armor. I don my Ultimate Armor, and meanwhile, the other Moonstone Armors have been upgraded to function WITHOUT their Moonstone batteries.
Freddy Martinez has the Vampire Armor. The armor looks gothic, being a blood red with pitch black trimmings. The gauntlets are clawed at the fingertips and can heal the wearer by draining blood from enemies. The user gains vampire and bat senses and abilities, as well as the ability to control darkness and shadows, and wields a dark longsword (containing daylight, holy magic, and the scent of garlic) that can be summoned back if disarmed.
Vandal has the Werewolf Armor. The armor looks beastly, being a dark orange with glowing orange trimmings. The user gains wolf and beast like senses, able to run on all fours and gain incredible agility. They can also use magic to project an orb of moonlight to strengthen themselves. The weapons are silver-clawed gauntlets in both the fingertips and from the wrists (like Wolverine).
Frankenstein has the Living Armor. The armor is a dark green and surging with green lightning (appearing similar to a normal set of Monster Armor), and is heavily durable. The armor is a dark green with light green trimmings, and is heavily fire-resistant. The user can control green fire and green lightning. The weapon is a heavy hammer that can conduct electricity, and can summon green lightning down to heal the user.
Arragotus has the Mummy Armor. The armor looks ancient, and is a dark purple with light purple glowing trimmings. The weapon is an Egyptian staff. The user can perform various magical spells using the staff, such as healing bandages, mummy summon, sandstorm conjure, plague curses, and more. It is powered by the Curse Moonstone.
Hannah Fairchild has the Ghost Armor. The armor looks ethereal, being a cyan blue with glowing white trimmings. The weapons are twin daggers. The armor allows the user to go invisible, intangible, and allows for safe passage into the Shadow Realm (and is the only way for a living being to be a Realmwalker). It's basically a stealth suit.
Kruu Deep has the Aqua Armor. The armor is completely aquatic, being light green with dark green trimmings. It is made with Atlantean technology, made by Kruu Deep. The weapon is a trident that can control the waters and the sea and summon watery constructs. It can be double-ended for more agile attacks. The armor allows the user to survive and breathe underwater, use Siren Magic, and use Marine Telepathy to speak with marine life, merpeople, and Atlantean creatures.
Todd Coates has the Revenant Armor. The armor looks undead, being a dark gray with pink trimmings. The user is unarmed but becomes a master of hand-to-hand combat. The armor bestows the user with infinite stamina, and while wearing the armor, they can never die (any severed body part will instantly reform, with the feeling that that limb has fallen asleep).
Additionally, we have MORE special amulets that don't require any Moonstones at all! That way we have much more variety.
Mirpo has the Alien Armor. It looks incredibly high-tech with cyan coloring and the user has a jetpack, a plasma rifle, 0-G bombs (that cause all inside the blast radius to lose gravity upon detonation, and an energy force field. It can also translate alien languages.
Lushara has the Demon Armor. Forged in pure hellfire, the armor looks a demonic red. The user is able to conjure any type of weapon, all in the latest in Hell technology. It also allows for demonic magic and summoning.
Sue Morgan has the Knight Armor. It looks just like a classic knight armor with a wizarding twist. Fitted with a helmet visor and a cape, the user can wield a sword, a shield, a wand, and a staff. They can summon magical constructs of other knights, horses, and even dragons, and all mounts can be rideable.
Bigfoot has the Cryptid Armor. It looks like a brown and wild beast. The user can communicate with both natural and supernatural animal life, from dogs to manticores. They can also use Ancient Magic, as well as the powers of various cryptids from Bigfoot to the Wendigo, and become invisible to the natural and naked eye.
Erin Wright has the Nano Armor. It's basically an upgraded form with a steel gray color, and the latest highly-advanced technology. It's even got nanotech and nanomachines, and even MORE weapon options. She's now got the skill to become a true killing machine.
Mark has the Digital Armor. It's a blue pixely color and gives him samurai-like armor, but also allows for more ninja-like mobility. I call it the best of both worlds. Plus, he's got TWO Digi-Katanas now. And he can hack into ANY kind of technology.
I creak open an old rusty gate leading into the cemetery. This place is situated on 'Cemetery Drive', two blocks past the local school. It's predominantly granite gravestones, with a mixture of low grave markers and some monuments. There are hardly any trees in the cemetery itself, aside from a few sparse shrubs. The cemetery itself is geographically split between two levels. The lower area is at the road level, rolling over a low downward sloping hill, which then goes up again onto a larger upper flat stretch. On one edge of the cemetery is the man-made amphitheater and a large leaning tree, providing an abundance of shade for the undead townspeople often to meet. It is unclear just how many headstones there are, but there must be quite a lot of them, given the history of Dark Falls.
I read some of the tombstones, all of which have open graves. Ray Thurston, Died 1988. Compton Dawes, Died 1980. Holy shit, they even planned for the Bensons! Amanda and Josh Benson, Died 1992. Yeah, well, they only got Petey. Poor dog…
That's when we hear something. Some growls and feasting noises. And some roars as well.
I peek from behind a tree. Holy shit…
The Ultimates have been tearing themselves to pieces! They're like wild animals! Still, these things are TOUGH to kill. It's hard to tell them apart!
That's when I realized something else. Lisa must've been bitten by the Ultimate as well, and now she's one of them! Which means all Ultimates now have Lovecraftian abilities…
"Hungry…"
Ultimate Cory roars at Ultimate Dawes and tries roasting him alive with demonic hellfire, but he just roars and tackles him. However, Cory manages to fatally wound Dawes before smashing him against a tombstone. Damn, they look tough. Even I'm not sure that we can do this.
One Ultimate alone nearly tore us all apart. How can we hope to stand against a whole HORDE of them?
Maybe with the Moonstones. That HAS to be how.
They look giant, too. Like twice our size. And it won't be long until they…
SPOT US!
Sensing us, Cory turns with a growl, red eyes glaring intensely. He then roars and breathes up hellfire, the stitched, bandaged, undead, and transparent werewolf bearing its vampiric fangs and spreading its wings. The other Ultimates follow suit, sounding like screams and eldritch roars.
"Don your armor!" I say. "NOW!"
Those who have them pull out their amulets and speak the incantations.
"For the death of Dracula, the night is mine to command!"
"For the thrill of the hunt, the moon is mine to command!"
"For the gift of life, the storm is mine to command!"
"For the honor of Anubis, the curse is mine to command!"
"For the realm of shadows, the soul is mine to command!"
"For the glory of Atlantis, the sea is mine to command!"
"For the survival of the living, death is mine to command!"
"For the light of the universe, the stars are mine to command!"
"For the punishment of the wicked, the flames are mine to command!"
"For truth and justice, good always prevails!"
"For the great King Arthur, the sword is mine to command!"
"For the call of the legend, the wild is mine to command!"
"For the future of all, the steel is mine to command!"
"For the might of the matrix, Cyberspace is mine to command!"
All fourteen don their respective armor, and I lead the charge into battling the greatest monsters this world has ever known.
I deal a heavy blow to one across the jaw, then kick another in the face! I let loose with all the guns, swords, magic, spells, vehicles, and weapons in my arsenal, and the other monsters and hunters fight with no mercy. There's lightning, fire, ice, acid, hellfire, spiritual energy, and many MANY more!
Bigfoot clobbers one with giant fists, Lushara binds another in burning whips, and Mirpo fires lasers at more. Hannah goes for Lisa, and I rush straight for Cory. No Transformation Ray can cure him this time. Neither can an emotional speech.
"Cory…" I state. "You better still be in there…"
I dodge a downwards punch and strike at the leg, then block hellfire before knocking him into the air! He catches himself with his wings and roars before blasting a magical laser at me, and I roll to dodge before flying up to meet him. I unload it all, firing EVERYTHING as I empty every single clip of ammo I've got for all my weapons.
But I know this. Cory's become the ultimate monster. Nothing in the universe can kill him, OR this horde. If this gets out across the world, all will be lost. We have to stop this here, and NOW.
I can't kill him. And not because I don't want to. No, I just need to weaken him enough. So I can use it.
Focus, Abe. This is what your entire family line trained you to do. You hunt and slay monsters. For mankind…and many more.
A stake to the heart. A silver bullet to the brain. Direct contact to sunlight. Garlic, fire, and many more weaknesses. All in one single amulet.
Had it not been for the Ultimate Armor, all it would've taken was one single savage and fatal strike from Cory to kill me, and end my line. Well…maybe not. Cassie would most likely continue after me. Maybe Henry and Anna, when they're old enough.
But I'm not done writing my story yet. I'm only putting that damn pen down when I'm an old man.
It takes everything I've got. Everything I have. I feel like Superman fighting Doomsday. That armor, after all, can't protect me from everything. No matter how perfect it was built.
I hack and slash and shoot and cast as much as I can, trying to overwhelm Cory as everyone else focuses on the rest of the horde, trying not to get clawed or scratched or bitten or eaten. Finally, I begin hearing bones break. And a healing factor getting overtaxed.
Cory roars like mad in a rage, trying to recover instantly. He coughs up blood rather than hellfire. And I see my chance. In case I get interrupted, I cast a barrier around me to prevent projectiles or other monsters from reaching me.
And I hold the amulet up high, and I scream the magic words at the top of my very lungs, scared for my very life with my fear at its peak.
"KARRU MARRI ODONNA LOMA MOLONU KARRANO!"
There's a flash of green light from the amulet…and Cory's eyes glow a dark green.
And the second I gaze into them…I feel something happen…
…
Everything goes black. And then, that blackness fades.
I find myself…nowhere. All that's around me is a spatial chaotic green void. As if the ruins, remnants, and remains of a destroyed and broken universe.
"What…? Where…Where am I?"
There's gigantic tentacles off in the distance. And chanting. Eldritch ancient chanting. That's it. No screaming, no other voices, nothing. This isn't Hell…
I turn to see what's in front of me. A massive blob of flesh begins to take form. Eventually, I can make out what it is. A giant Cthulhu wizard, on a throne, and holding a staff.
Strangely, I'm not terrified. I guess being afraid all the time can do that to you.
This is it. The big bad guy. The horror behind it all. The mastermind that is something BEYOND a god.
"Fier."
He towers over me like a skyscraper, possibly even taller than one. And then, I hear his voice like demonic thunder.
"HOW…UNEXPECTED. YOU ARE BUT A MERE MORTAL. AND YET, YOU GAZE UPON MY FORM…YET YOU RETAIN YOUR SANITY. YOU DARE USE MY OWN CREATIONS AGAINST MYSELF?"
"Oh, I dare. In fact, these Moonstones are what I used to bring an END to your Eternal Night! What, you cursed the moon again to try again? Sorry…but that's NEVER gonna happen."
"YOUR LINE HAS BEEN INTRIGUING, ABRAHAM VAN HELSING THE SECOND. YOU KNOW ALL THERE IS ABOUT THE PARANORMAL, AND THE SUPERNATURAL. IT SURPRISES ME, HOW YOU KNOW OF EVEN ME."
"Of course I know you. Finding and recognizing things is what we do. And you are absolutely a thing."
"A THING? HEH HEH. I AM NO MERE 'THING'. FOR ME, THE SLEEP OF EONS IS AS BUT MOMENTARY STILLNESS, AND IN DREAMS, I SPEAK TO THOSE WHO LISTEN. I ERODE THE MINDS OF THE WEAK, AND EMBOLDEN THE MAD. THE WIND GIBBERS WITH MY VOICE, AND THE EARTH RUMBLES WITH MY THOUGHTS. I RULED WHERE THE FEEBLE GODS ONCE DID, AND WHERE THEY DID I NOW DO SO AGAIN, UNTIL THE END OF ALL TIME. MY HAND IS AT YOUR THROAT, AND YOU SEE ME NOT. AFTER SUMMER IS WINTER, AND AFTER WINTER, SUMMER. I WAIT, POTENT AND POTENT, UNTIL THE STARS ARE RIGHT. NOR AM I ALONE IN MY WAITING. FOR THERE ARE THOSE WHO WOULD WORSHIP ME, HIDDEN IN DISTANT WASTES AND DARK PLACES. THERE THEY MAKE READY FOR THE TIME WHEN THEY WILL LIBERATE THEIR MASTER FROM ITS LONG SLEEP WITH THEIR PRAYERS. I WILL AWAKEN TO BRING THE WHOLE OF THE EARTH, AND ALL OF CREATION, UNDER MY SWAY, AND TEACH ALL NEW WAYS TO SHOUT AND KILL. I PLANT SEEDS OF MADNESS IN THE MINDS OF THE DREAMERS, AND CALL TO THOSE WHO WOULD SERVE ME. ALL GODS WILL FALL BEFORE ME AS I SHATTER THE CHAINS OF REASON, AND COMMAND LUNACY TO RUSH FORTH UPON ALL THAT IS, EVER WAS, AND EVER WILL BE. KINGS WILL BE MADE MAD, THE MAD WILL BECOME KINGS, AND NOT EVEN THE DEAD WILL BE SPARED MY WRATH."
"You're forgotten. All in your universe are now dead. You are all alone here. You're only an old killer. You don't make anything, you don't live. You just eat and hide."
"ALONE? HMM HMM HMM HMM HMM…I AM AFRAID THAT THAT…IS WHERE YOU ARE WRONG."
Fier opens a palm. In it rests a blue ghostly soul. A Realmwalker. He has a gray robe, a long white beard, and cold gray eyes. My eyes widened. Holy shit…
"Ephraim Darkwell!"
"ONE OF MANY HERALDS WHO DARED TO DEFY ME. NOW HIS ETERNAL SOUL LIES AS A PRISONER HERE. FOREVER. NO REAPER CAN EVER STEAL FROM ME. FOR EVEN THEY ARE TERRIFIED AT THE VERY MENTION OF MY NAME."
This is it…this could be my chance to find the incantation to stop Slappy once and for all! I just have to play my cards right and carefully…
"Yeah…I guess we ARE a bit common. We're both feared by those who fail to understand who we are, much like he was. And were hated for that. We're even seen by nightmares to those we go against and kill. You and me, we're just horrors of history. My family gazed madness in the face long ago and laughed. We've been afraid for so long…nothing even terrifies us anymore. There is nothing we do not fear. Not death, not madness…nothing. But the question is…are YOU afraid? Is there something that even YOU fear?"
"THAT NIGHTMARE IS NO MORE. THE FLUTES NO LONGER PLAY. THE DRUMS NO LONGER THUNDER. THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN SEND ME TO SLUMBER NOW. I MADE YOU ALL WITH ONLY MY DREAMS ALONE. AND WITH BUT A BLINK…YOU WILL ALL BE NO MORE. SO ANSWER ME THIS, VAN HELSING. DO YOU HAVE ANY FINAL WORDS TO YOUR MAKER, BEFORE YOU ARE CONSUMED BY THE BLACK VOID OF INFINITY THAT YOU ARE GRANTED BY DEATH?"
I only load my shotgun with two bullets enchanted by the Ultimate Armor. Then I cock it before holding it to the big octopus head with a single arm.
"No."
And then, I pull the trigger. BANG!
"AGH!"
The magic energy zips through the air like lightning, and the massive being suddenly roars as it flinches, holding its face from the pain of the strike.
"WHAT?!"
That hurt him. I can see the stunned expression of shock on his face. Impossibly, a single shot from a mere insignificant being ACTUALLY managed to hurt him! That ACTUALLY hurt his astral form! I have to admit, I didn't think that would work either.
Darkwell sees his chance and takes it. With Fier's astral form damaged, he uses his incredible magic to break free of the cage of dark magic and floats towards me.
"I AM NOT YOUR PAWN, GREAT MAD THING!" He says. "I SWORE TO NEVER USE MY POWERS FOR EVIL, REVENGE OR OTHERWISE! NOW, THE TIME HAS COME TO ERASE MY GREATEST FAILURE TO THIS WORLD!"
"NO!"
Darkwell unleashes a blast of blue magic, and I shield my eyes as he speaks the magic words.
"KALLAH MEEHA ARUMAH KALUMAH NOBA REEMAH MARU ODONI MALLAH ONARRAK UNOLUM AMOL ANNADO IRRAM URRAK!"
I hear Fier scream and roar in pain as the light blinds even HIM, and I brace myself as the universe itself goes white with such intense light…
…
CORY
I…I'm back.
I'm not sure how or why. The last thing I remember is the agonizing pain. It was so much that I couldn't even scream for help.
I'm in the cemetery…and the first thing I notice is…it's sunny. No clouds in the sky. A normal fall day.
The Revenants scream and melt into nothingness. Lisa's back too! And the green and blue flash of light fades. Van Helsing is holding the Ultimate Amulet…and there's a Realmwalker with him!
"It worked! We're back!"
I feel Lisa hug me, and I return it. At long last, the curse has been cured. As if it was never there at all. And the moon seems completely normal as well.
"I am grateful for you freeing me." The wizard ghost says. "I know I have done so many evil things…but I now seek redemption."
"It's what we do, Ephraim." Abe says, discarding the armor and letting the amulet absorb the natural sunlight. "WE should be thanking YOU for stopping the Ultimates and saving Dark Falls."
"Wait…Darkwell?!" I gasp. "But…I thought Slappy possessed your very soul!"
"I am the greatest magic master in the world. Not even HE could keep me sealed in himself." Darkwell stated. "I managed to escape, and free the souls trapped within his four siblings. Yet still, my greatest failures still roam. They MUST be stopped…"
"Slappy's stronger than he's ever been before." Abe adds. "He's taken over our home, and he's begun to expand his rule worldwide. We're all that stands between him and global domination."
"We need an incantation." I state. "One that can put him to sleep forever. Does it have to work when the sun sets on a day he fails to do evil?"
"No, there was never a time limit placed on him. But he MUST hear the spell in order for it to work. But if he says it backwards, he can easily turn the world into dummies with his supercharged magic!"
"So what's the incantation?"
Darkwell only conjures a slip of magical paper, and I read the words on it aloud.
"Kallah Meeha Arumah Kalumah Noba Reemuh Maru Odoni Mallah Onarrak Unolom Amol Annodo Irram Urrak."
"I will not rest until my creation has been destroyed. He is too evil, and too powerful." Darkwell says. "I can only imagine what terrible things he has done to you all."
"We all have a score to settle with him." Arragotus says. "And I tire of waiting. We must strike and confront him. NOW."
"Well…you're in luck." Abe says. "It's time for our training to pay off. We're going back to Hollowville. We're facing off against Slappy one final time. And ending this nightmare. For good."
"That place is heavily guarded and magically fortified." Jack adds. "We're gonna have to take the long way back."
"I'll let Dylan and the Mayor know." R.L. Stine adds. "I'll give them the incantation and tell them we'll be on our way back."
"Oh, and young Waldhorn?" Darkwell adds. "You may notice that I added in a small bonus for your great deeds against him."
Of course…I can feel it…
I clench a hand, my eyes glowing a bright fiery green.
"Slappy beware…" I smirk, the Ultimate returning under my command. "You're in for a scare…"
…
DYLAN
Well, we've just managed to rescue the most important person in this town. Jimmy O'James. It was risky, but we managed to succeed. And we also got Zeke's mother, Louise Johnson, the former mayor of the town.
Zeke must be going through a lot lately. As if college wasn't enough. Louise's popularity was declining as she kept failing to deal with the monsters in town since the Eternal Night. Sure, Cory was able to stop any threats, but that didn't change anything. The public thought even HE was one.
Louise's frustrations with her reputation hit a low and she seemed to find some hope when she discovered Jenna. She wished that she could protect the town and Jenna gave her a big crab-like machine which she ended up going on a rampage with. To Zeke's dismay, his mother was arrested and her position as mayor was revoked. At least, that's how the story went. I was out of time and back in Beaver Creek at the time.
I knew Jenna as quite the trickster. But I'm guessing that she was one of Slappy's minions in this timeline. Now that I think about it, Cory mentioned battling a crab robot. But he didn't know who was inside until he beat it.
Still, the light of hope is flickering. I was hoping that Jimmy could tell us the incantation that would put Slappy to sleep forever. But he's been rendered mute. And his hands are too broken to write it down. I can't even read his mind! Slappy's made him useless…
I sigh as I sit back down. I know exactly how Louise feels right now…
"I can't believe what Hollowville has come to…" She's saying. "Turned into a monster-infested empire! And Slappy, King of Horrorville! Nothing good can come from this…"
"Yeah…" I add. "Nothing good indeed…"
That's when her phone rings. It's an unknown number. She answers.
"Hello?" Louise asks. "Mayor-I mean, Miss Johnson here."
She's silent for a few seconds. And then, her eyes widened.
"Save Hollowville? Wait a second…who is this?" She asks. "You sound familiar. Ar…El? Wait…this Corella ghost said that someone with those initials would be important to me…"
Wait…hold on a second…no way! My eyes widened in shock.
"C-Can you put that on speaker?!" I ask. She does so, and I'm almost stunned at the voice on the other end.
"Don't be upset, Johnson." It says. "If you listen carefully, I can help you defeat Slappy and save Hollowville."
"GRANDPA?!" I basically scream. "I-Is that you?!"
"Hello, Dylan. It's nice to know you're okay."
"Hey, he sounds like that Eric Affabee guy!" Zeke notices. "Didn't he say that this town belonged, and would always belong, to monsters?!"
"He made a copy of me?! Slappy's deviousness knows no end."
"We've been holding out for as long as we can, but I don't know how much longer we can do just that!" I say. "PLEASE tell me you're on your way back!"
"Oh, we are. We wouldn't have gotten the incantation to stop him for good if we weren't."
I gasp. "Incantation?! What is it?"
"Listen carefully. Slappy NEEDS to hear these words for it to work." Grandpa says. "Kallah Meeha Arumah Kalumah Noba Reemuh Maru Odoni Mallah Onarrak Unolom Amol Annodo Irram Urrak."
I quickly grab a notebook and write the incantation down, word for word. All while R.L. Stine repeats the incantation. Fifteen words. The second half is the original words backwards.
"Slappy could cover his ears if he starts to hear it. You need to make it loud enough so he can't NOT hear it." Grandpa says. "Is there anything you can use to amplify the words?"
"Well…" I smirk. "Have Cory send a download of a recording to my phone. I think I can hook it up to the main cell tower."
"But…that thing was taken down by those living plants!" Mitra adds.
"Nothing a little magic can't fix. In the meantime, Slappy can't know what we're doing. I'm thinking my team and yours can work together to act as a diversion while I get the radio station up and running again. How long until you get back?"
"We're heading back as we speak." Grandpa says. "Given the distance, we'll be back at nightfall. I've already let the Darks know so THEY can help too."
"Max finished her training?!"
"Yes. Just hold on. We're on our way."
The phone hangs up. I only smile.
"Someone heard us…help is coming!" One survivor cheers.
"You bet they did." I smile. "And before the sun rises the next day, this will FINALLY be over. Better get ready and train. The final battle begins once the sun sets."
I set my timer. Given how it's autumn, the sun will set at 7:00 P.M.
Everyone heads off, and I see Weather with Mitra.
"This is for luck. And in case anything happens…"
Woah. I know I'm not REALLY a kid anymore, but I still feel too pure to look. And after a while, the girls part from the kiss. Mitra is now a blushing mess.
"I…uh…it's…uh…"
"The feelings are legit now. I guess fate works in mysterious ways." Weather smiles.
"Yeah…uh…I…I love you too…"
Oh man, Lisa will LOVE this.
I only head off myself. Get ready, Slappy. We'll be seeing who's the REAL dummy soon enough…
…
SLAPPY
…they're dead. The Revenants and Ultimates…are dead?
WHY ARE THEY DEAD?!
And…and the Midnight Society…they're COMING BACK!
"ARRRRRGH! NO NO NO NO NOOOOOO!"
I throw stuff around with my powers in a tantrum and fit. It's not fair! IT'S NOT FAIR! I'm the Horror King! I will NOT go down like this!
"That's IT. THAT. IS. IT!" I scream. "Things have NEVER been going my way! GRRRR! Fine! I don't have a choice now. Those dummies brought it upon themselves."
I begin calling forth my greatest magic spell yet. My eyes turn white as I say the ULTIMATE magic words!
"Karru Marri…Odonna Loma…Molonu Karrano…Hallam Inodo…Uram Humeer…Abon Hamilak…Hamura…Aheem…Hallak!"
You And I Are One Now…The Mind Is Bent…OBEY YOUR GREAT ETERNAL MASTER!
The green fire, magic, and lightning surges forth like a raging storm as I laugh, floating up my eyes go a pale fiery green. This is the strongest of my magic, at its very limits. Finally…I have been perfecting this spell for over 30 years…and now it finally works.
"I…AM DONE PLAYING!" I declare. "NOW…ALL SLAVES WHO DISOBEY ME…WILL DIE! MONSTERS! SPREAD MY CHAOS WORLDWIDE! THIS UNIVERSE IS MINE! KILL ALL AND ANY WHO RESIST."
That's right, DUMMY. No more jokes. No more laughs. No more fun and games. No more playing around!
King…No…Emperor Slappy is serious now. DEAD serious! I am the Ultimate now! The ultimate nightmare and horror that this pathetic world has ever known!
And once I kill all my enemies…once I enslave this world…once I control this universe…
YOU'RE NEXT…
