"Now, isn't this better my pet?" Victoria cooed a few hours later. They were in her villa on the beach. It was beautiful but Bogg didn't notice. He didn't care. He stared glassy-eyed over the balcony to the ocean.
She called to him, and he walked over to her and sat beside her. She kissed his cheek but she may as well have been kissing a statue. She rubbed his shoulders, "I'm glad you have finally accepted your new station in life." He just sat there, head down. "What, no snappy come back? No, 'I'll beat you somehow, Victoria!'? I'm almost disappointed...but not quite." She smiled a cold smile.
"You won," he said. "Jeff's gone, history's destroyed...do whatever you want. I don't care anymore."
That was all she wanted to hear. "At last, the mighty Phineas Bogg has been beaten!" Victoria pulled a gun out of her dresser drawer. "Should I keep you around for my pleasure or just put you out of your misery?"
She leveled her gun at him, laughing and enjoying this final victory while Phineas just stood there.
"Phineas!" The cry floated in from the balcony doors, then, became louder. "Bogg! Where are you?" He thought he was hearing things; it couldn't be! "Jeffrey?" Bogg called out, not really believing his own ears.
Jeff and Tracy went barreling through the house, calling for him, "Phineas! Fight it!" Tracy cried.
"I'm here, Bogg! We can win!" Jeff called. The two friends raced upstairs.
A small spark ignited in Bogg's once dead eyes and Victoria knew she was in for a fight. "NO!" She screamed "You can't do this! I won't let you have him!"
He lunged for her as she fired the gun. He fell to the ground, clutching his left shoulder. The room began to swim around him and she stood above him and smiled. "Maybe this won't be so bad after all..." She said as she looked at him lying there. Then he passed out.
Tracy and Jeff froze for a second, then both screamed, "BOGG!" They dashed into the bedroom "Bogg, No! " Jeff cried. He dashed over to the lifeless form of Phineas Bogg, leaving Tracy alone to face the enemy.
Victoria looked puzzled for a moment, trying to figure out where she knew this redhead from and why there was such a hatred in her eyes; and then she remembered. She scrambled up, away from the hellcat she was about to face and she decided to play her hand.
"Oh, my poor Tracy! You couldn't stand to think that Phineas liked me and not you, could you? It always bothered you that he wanted me..."
"You venomous bitch! What have you done?" Tracy flew at Victoria and knocked her to the ground, causing the gun to go spinning away from both of them.
Jeff cradled Bogg as best he could and tried to stop the bleeding. Bogg opened his eyes and stared vacantly. "Bogg," Jeff whispered, "hang on! Tracy and I are here! We'll get you back to VHQ or someplace...just hold on!"
His eyes focused on Jeff at the mention of her name. "T-T-Tracy?" He looked up at the ruckus around him and saw her: his cute little redhead. He smiled and lay back in Jeff's arms, "Tracy. I knew we would meet again..." He started to gasp and cough.
"Bogg! No! Hold on! Bogg!" Jeff called to Tracy in a panic, "Let her go! We've got him! Let history take its course!"
Tracy glanced over at the two of them and yelled, "Go! Get him out of here now!"
"NO! He's mine!" Victoria lunged for the pair but Tracy grabbed her by the hair and threw her back. She looked at Jeff for a split second and her look said it all..."I'll be fine, now go."
Jeff grabbed his Omni from his pocket and disappeared. He didn't know where or when it would take them and he didn't care.
"NO!" Victoria screamed at the spot where the two friends had just been. "I have the only working Omni! This isn't happening!" She spun around to face Tracy, who had a very satisfied look on her face.
Victoria's eyes narrowed as she approached her nemesis once again. She had retrieved the gun, and it was poised for the kill. "What have you done?"
The shuddering of the house was her answer. Things slowly started to disappear from the room as History was restored to the proper timeline.
"What have I done?" Tracy repeated. "I'll tell you what I've done. I fixed the Omnitron and have righted history." She paused dramatically. "All your handiwork is being unraveled right before your eyes and you can't stop it."
"That's not possible!" Victoria shrieked. "I disabled all the Omnis!"
Tracy just shook her head. "You didn't count on a retiree keeping his for old times sake, did you my dear?" Victoria paled. Then Tracy held up two Omnis: her own and Victoria's. Tracy had taken it from her in their struggle.
"Your timeline," Tracy continued, "is folding in on itself and all it's people are disappearing. They never existed." She held up her Omni, poised for departure. "And without your Omni my dear sweet Victoria, neither have you."
"No!" Victoria screamed as she tried to grab her Omni but Tracy was a step ahead of her. With the push of a button, she was gone.
"NO! NO! NO!" She spun around the room, grasping at things. Everything vanished. She screamed angrily, cursing Tracy, Bogg, and anyone else she could think of as she slowly started to fade away.
