...where, back inside the gym, the White Rabbit stuttered. "Do...do you, Your Highness, take these...these..."
"Yes! He does." Tiff said, glancing an evil smile at Daniel.
"As do we." added Brit, who did the same.
Outside the gym, Patrick pulled on the doors, calling. "OPEN THOSE DOORS! I SAID, OPEN THEM!"
"Step aside, cone head." Eddy said as he ran past the rest of us, trying to open the doors, but to no avail.
He tried the others on the right, but it was the same as the left.
"WHY WON'T THESE STUPID DOORS OPEN?!" he shouted in frustration.
"Could it be, perhaps, they're...locked?" said Double D.
Eddy tried pulling on the door again, then said calmly. "I knew that."
"But did you know there's another way to open them?" Silver asked as his cyborg arm turned into a flamethrower.
"Oh, yeah! Now we're talking!" Eddy said, rubbing his hands.
"Oh, dear." said Double D.
"If there are any...objections to why..." asked the White Rabbit, who was cut off by Brit, who said. "No! There aren't."
"Yeah!" agreed Tiff. "No objections!"
Just then, the left and right doors were flown open...by Double D and Eddy, who called. "Object this!"
Those that were sitting turned to see me, Odette and the Imaginaries enter the room.
"Odette!" Daniel exclaimed upon seeing her, but was blocked the hall monitors' taser spears.
"Get away from him!" demanded Odette.
"It's too late to stop us, Dorkette." Tiff said. "Daniel Boy and this whole school are both ours for the taking."
"Her name is not Dorkette, it's Odette!" I corrected her, but was held back by Amelia, who said. "Nathan, no. We'll take it from here."
"And who are you supposed to be?" asked Brit.
"Amelia Smollett, one of the very first alumni of Bowditch Middle School."
Everyone gasped and muttered to each other at what they were hearing.
"That's right." Amelia said to them, then turned to the Crust Cousins. "And as captain of Foster City School's Hall Monitor Patrol, I am authorized to place you and your squadron under arrest."
"Oh, we're really scared." Brit said, quivering for a moment. "Or, at least, we would be..."
"...if we didn't have the upper hand!" Tiff added, snapping her fingers.
All at once, the HMP swarmed around, restraining and blocking us with their spears.
"Pronounce us married! Now!" Brit ordered the White Rabbit.
"Don't do it, please?" begged Odette.
Brit turned back, chuckling sinisterly as she and Tiff walked back to us. "Oh, it'll take more than one desperate plea to stop us from reimagining Bowditch."
"What do you mean 'reimagining?'" I asked, turning to the Eds.
"Oh," said Tiff. "You mean they didn't tell you about...THIS?"
She pressed on the remote, which made the stage curtains part, revealing the plans of Crustopia, to everyone's shock and horror.
"A mall?!" I asked, equally shocked. "You're turning Bowditch into a mall?"
"Yes!" replied Brit. "Complete with shopping and dining as far as the eye can see!"
"You monsters!" Amelia snarled, trying to break free from her restrainer. "Don't you care about the history that's been made?"
"Nobody cares about your stupid history!" said Tiff. "And once we're done with this school, no one will ever believe you or anyone else were here."
"No!" Daniel shouted, finally pushing his way past the hall monitors. "You can't do this!"
But as he got closer to us, Brit pulled out her taser, which she pointed at him, saying. "We have the power to do what we want with Bowditch, control the lives of every twerp who sets foot here. And if you want to see your precious friends free, you will do as we command!"
"Never!" Daniel argued.
Tiff let out an angry cry as she took Brit's taser and struck him in front of all of us.
"No!" cried the Queen.
As Daniel collapsed on the floor, Tiff said through her earpiece. "Release it! NOW!"
"Daniel!" Odette called as we ran to his side.
But while trying to help him up, there was an explosion.
"Oh, no." Eddy groaned as he looked up at the ceiling.
The rest of us looked up as well to see the restraints explode one by one as the Dragoncinerator appeared under the shocked faculty and guests.
"What is that thing?" asked Mr. Krabs.
"That's what they were going to use to burn Bowditch to the ground!" explained Double D.
"And y'all will burn along with it!" Tiff called.
"For this is no longer a wedding, nor is it a ball," added Brit. "It is an execution!"
The last of the restraints exploded, letting the Dragoncinerator land hard on the gym floor, roaring loudly in front of our horrified eyes.
