Epilogue
HEY GUYS. LAST CHAPTER.
OH GAWD. TEARS ARE COMING.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU ALL FOR ALL THE SUPPORT FOR THE SERIES. BEEN A RIDE. A LONG ONE.
SPECIAL THANKS TO INVENTOR-7 FOR QUIGI AND BLEEDMAN FOR BELL.
NEVER THOUGHT MY OWN FIC AFFECTED ME SO MUCH.
SNIFFING AND CRYING HERE.
edit: I love you guys for all your support! I'll make a new fic after this!
STORY IS NOOOOOOOOWWWWW OH MAH GAWD, TEARS.
Two years later after that fateful day, the one that brought shock and happiness around the world was now over. Prisoners of war returned to their families and homes with smiles, DexLabs's new focus was making the world a better place.
No one was happier than Mite, Bell, GIR and Gaby.
Dexter conducted research and Bell's body breaking down will have no effect on their child to their relief. Bell was still dying of course, no cure can be done for that and nine moths later, their daughter Gaby was born.
Gaby had green eyes, green hair and the cutest face ever...she looked like the spitting image of Fusion Bell to their satisfaction. The girl was considered so adorable, Mina thought drinking her blood was illegal to the universe. She learned how to walk (or was learning) also, she acted more innocent than her mother and was a bit silent.
Although she did have an antenna of brown hair on her head...
Dexter did what Mite requested, tell the world a command team was sent to Planet Fuse instead and Fuse surrendered and flew off. Dexter was also grateful enough to give Mite and Bell a home, on the outskirts of Elmore, a quiet and peaceful life with no rent, hurray!
The house was white, not too big to be noticeable and was on a hill, in front of the claimed historic sight where the escape pods where the prisoners escaped from. Mite took the spaceship from the site and disassembled it, he made his truck to a rocket powered one like he said he would.
Mite also had a full time job as a cook for that restaurant, he was an expert and the pay was good. Enough to support a family like his. Bell stayed at home, playing video games and the kids, she loved GIR and Gaby so much, she wasn't getting weaker like aids would do and all of the family loved Mite's cooking...except the vegetables to his ire.
With Mina and Lucas, they're still living in the apartment in Elmore. Mina went from quick trips from her now job as a military instructor...Lucas did all the household work...
And they were dating.
They didn't want to do it but after some pressuring by their friends, they went out finally. Those two were surprised as much as anyone to have good chemistry as they haven't broken up yet.
As for Aya and Maria, they returned to the castle and opened and infirmary there since it turns out Aya wants to be a doctor! She never charged...
Some people don't check out though...
Garfield returned to his owner, Jon and Odie after finding the 'wild' life wasn't good for him. He never breathed a word about him being in a war and somehow his life was turned into a cheesy comic strip and two very crap shows with very crappy movies.
Quigi was prompted to second of (human) command at DexLabs, was he happy about it? Yes...
In a way.
Dexter forced him to take alcoholic's anonymous to his horror. Well at least Quigi's attempting to change.
Attempting...
ManBearPig never even returned to the wild. After people actually found out he was speaking in Beardism, a foreign language only known to hillbillies. ManBearPig earned a scholarship in politics and English in the first year of college and then in the second, became mayor of Elmore.
Surprising, I know.
Than lastly, the last person to be given an epilogue would be Fuse. Used to be once the most hated beings in the universe is now once of the most loved. Fuse began traveling the universe, helping the people of planets along with his race which the Fusion people are surprisingly comfortable at.
Fuse's actions were held as his existence being a miracle, he wasn't called Fuse anymore either, he was now called Toby. Fuse, I mean Toby, took care of people with politics, hunger, poor economy, drought with no reward, not even a thanks was a reward and he leaves silently and swiftly once his work was done.
Toby was regarded to be the Charlotte's Web kinda person, never telling intentions on why he helps people by delegates and representatives of the planets. He just...does it.
Back on Earth, statues of a green monster were burned every year on the day of the war's end, an official holiday to show Earth kicking Fuse's butt. Ironic considering he's like a holy man in the universe. Planet Fuse (now known as Planet Bell) was now a symbol of hope while on Earth, it was a symbol of war.
Toby never filled his castle with people, the inhabitance consisting of himself, only with visitors likely from other planets to politically talk to Fuse.
On very rare occasions though, every sunset, Fuse walks on a hill as politicians spy on him as he places flowers on it before spending the rest of the night on the hill when the sun sets to be next to whatever was on that hill...
Autumn...
"Mite!" Bell whined, tugging her blindfold, "Woke me up in the middle of night to drive me somewhere with a blindfold. Why?" She asked, looking at the direction where the driver should be.
"Surprising you." He told her with a smile. He stopped the car and parked it, "I'll escort you milady." Bell frowned, her eyes stared at him with pissed off intent as Mite got down the car. He went to the other side and opened the door for her and let her down.
"What'll you show me?" Mite held her hand as they went towards a bench, one making Bell unfortunate enough to hit, "Ow."
"Sorry." The two sat down on it, "Now open the blindfold. Might be a bit blurry since the sun hasn't come out yet." Bell took the blindfold off, winced at the streetlights blinding her and she looked again.
"W-Wait!" She stood up, "This is-!"
"The street where you and I first met?" She sat back down, shocked.
"How did you-?"
"Yeah. Dexter still gave me a present after the party." He said, "Wanted to surprise you..."
"Why not bring the kids?"
"You are completely aware why." He stared at her, she nodded and looked around, "Chilly this morning."
"Uh huh." She nuzzled next to him, "I can't believe I still look the same as fourteen with you! Like really, I wanted my boobs to grow!" She looked at her chest, disappointedly. Mite patted her head in comforting.
"Boobs aren't the only thing..." He stared at her, "You already given birth to Gaby, that's enough." He remembered how Gaby rejected the breast milk Bell was trying to give. Bell was just that flat!
"Alright." Bell whistled, "Is the bench we're sitting on-?"
"Same one." He motioned her to look at the street, "Look." She looked up and saw the sign of the street now named St Bell.
"Aw!" Bell hugged him warmly, Mite pushed her off him playfully, "Hah..." She looked up at the sky, not the same without Planet Fuse to stare down at you, in a good way, "My last minutes huh?"
"Yeah." Mite looked down, playing with his fingers, "In a few minutes, you'd be...dead."
"Uh huh." Bell nodded her head, "So, been a ride, huh?"
"Yeah." Mite coughed, "I never thought a tsundere friendship would make me get married."
"I never thought I'd die and be brought back." Bell reminded, "Ironic considering now..."
"I...thought before that my only purpose when I first started out was killing Fuse. Until I met you and GIR." Mite lamented, "Guess life isn't the way you expect it to."
"So, how many of our friends are awake, knowing I'm about to die?" Bell asked, "I mean, how many?" She turned to Mite who grabbed and hugged her, his head nestling against her neck, "Huh?"
"P-Please...I don't want you to go." He cried into her shoulder, tears running down his face, "P-Please don't leave me." Bell patted his back in comfort.
"It's okay..."
"I need you!" He cried harder, chocked in his own tears, "GIR need you, Gaby need you...I need you..."
"You know I can't stay." She made him look at her, "I can't stop it." She wiped the tears from his eyes, "I wish I could but I can't...,"
"B-But I can't see you anymore..." He said, crying still.
"Don't worry." She told him, "I'll be right here." She pointed at his brain, "And here also." She then pointed his heart, "Hear me?"
"Y-Yeah..."
"Good." She kissed him for one last time, "Can I rest on your shoulder, I need to take a nap. Haven't slept in ages."
"S-Sure." He sat, back pressed against the bench. Bell nuzzled on his neck, him not looking at her as she sighs and closes her eyes. Her body began glowing underneath as the sun started rising up, clothes included.
"Thanks for everything..." She finally fell asleep on his shoulder. Her body began disintegrating away into crystals towards the sky, the light getting stronger and stronger until it stopped, nothing left of Bell as the crystals flew away, heading towards the sun.
She had a smile on her face when she was fading away.
"B-Bell?" Mite turned towards where he thought she was only to find her gone, he looked at the sky to see the crystals disappearing, fading away into the sky before Toby weeped silently as the sunlight rose up at him.
"Alright. Ready?" Mite finally put the tie on GIR's school uniform, it was hours after Bell's departure and GIR's first day of school was today. Mite motioned GIR to come outside, the light shining over the hill, Mite sat on the tree stump and held Gaby in his arms, the girl still trying to master walking, "Hmm?"
He saw GIR looking down, depressed as it is, "Hey." Mite poked GIR's back, "Something wrong?"
"I miss mama." GIR said, Mite touched GIR's shoulder.
"GIR, my child." Mite looked at GIR with comfort, "Mommy woulda loved you to be happy today for her sake. We need to learn she loved us no matter what."
"But how can I forget her?" GIR asked and Mite shook his head.
"GIR, sometimes never moving on is better than moving on in general." Mite said to the robot, "We don't move on or we'll forget her." Mite laughed a bit, "Will you forget her?"
"N-No..."
"Then you're doing her a favor." Mite smiled, making the robot smile also, suddenly a bus began going towards them, "School bus is here!" Mite motioned GIR once the bus stopped moving, "C'mon. Go. New world ahead of you."
GIR nodded and ran towards the entrance of the bus as it opened its doors. GIR looked at Mite one last time before going in entirely, the buss closing its doors. Mite smiled and saw the bus drive off with Mite watching.
"Hya~" He saw Gaby wake from her nap, the cute pajamas that made her look like a pillow stretching out, Gaby began crying as Mite stood up and smiled.
"Least I have you." Mite rubbed her thumb over the crying child's head, "C'mon. I'll make you eat some food." He began walking back to the house one last time. As he walked, the memories were flooding back to him of his times with Bell, those happy memories.
'I promise you Bell.' Mite thought, 'I'll make my life at its fullest, and I thank you for it.' Mite glanced around and saw leaves fly into the sky on the grassy and silent hill. Mite went onto the house's porch, opening the door with Gaby in his arms before closing the door.
His moment in time was complete and he could never have wanted it any other way.
