Hello again
I know it's been awhile since I last updated this story
Sorry for the wait
Hopefully this chapter makes up for it
First off reviews
Agent BM: Lucy's overconfidence led to her failure, as for Kevin like Vanellope said, he had earned his reward
Mangle6: Glad you liked the last chapter, and Norville's powers are strong however his body can't handle it for long, so he has to end battles quickly for his own good
Quick DISCLAMIERS
Lucy and Kevin Fluggerbutter belong to Agent BM
Herschel and Ella Nougatson belong to Captain Alaska
Sebastian Buttercream and Kit Smoreline belong to Mangle 6
Copy Vanellope belongs to SquidbaggerOfWoomyAndNgyesness
All other OCs mentioned belong to me!
No one owns anything else!
Now with that out of the way
Vanellope's patience wears thin
However she plans on one last attack against Norville
Will it succeed?
And how will she react when she finds out those she seeks are long gone?
Time to find out
Ch.4 A Hero's Fall
(Where we left off)
Kevin would let go of Jr and look at the Legos on his bed
"How long have you been here?"
"A few hours…I voke up on your bed…Vanellope told me to stay in ze room…I saw some Legos near your closet and started to play…zen you showed up…"
Kevin would look at him confused
"You don't remember what happened to you?"
"No…I remember going to bed…zen vaking up here…"
"Ok…"
"Is zere somesing I should know?" Jr would ask
"No there isn't." Kevin would respond
"Ok…"
Kevin would take out some transformers
"Common let's play…"
"Great!" Jr would respond
(Meanwhile)
Vanellope would sit on her throne
Adorabeezle, Jubileena, Nougetsia, Citrusella, Snowanna and Candlehead would be brought before her
"I hope you spent your time in the Fungeon wisely…"
"We did your highness…" They'd respond in unison
All they would see would be Vanellope's hands
"Then I expect more from all of you…"
"What are your orders?" Adorabeezle would ask
"We will be going to Norville's hallway…one last time…" Vanellope would respond
"We?" Candlehead would ask
"Yes…you all…the 'perfected' children…and myself…since I want to ensure Norville is defeated this time around…"
"When do we leave your highness?" Snowanna would ask
"In a while…prepare…" Vanellope would respond
All the minions would bow and leave the throne room
(Further away)
The 'perfected' children would continue their 'punishment' of rubbing Lucy's feet and wiping her drool
Vick would wipe Lucy's mouth
"Her mouth's a waterfall…I bet if we put a bucket under her mouth it'd be full in a minute…"
Sophie and Olivia would glare at him
"Atleast you're not stuck rubbing her feet!" They'd state in unison
Vick would roll his eyes
(Sometime later)
All the kids were still being forced to take care of Lucy, and none of them were enjoying it.
"This sucks" said Linke
"You're telling me, Lucys so obsessed with being pretty but why do her feet have to smell so bad?" Carl would ask
Kevin entered the bedroom not long after, and all the children looked at him.
"Leave us, take a break. I want a word with my sister" said Kevin
All the kids quickly exited the bedroom as Kevin walked up to Lucy. She just sat there, her eyes lazily moving around.
"Comfortable, Lucy? You don't deserve to be comfortable. I'm not happy with you sis. You may be the prettiest in the game, but you're definitely not the strongest"
Lucy gave a pathetic weak smile at that comment.
"Oh, so you think that's funny huh? You don't have a single thought in your head whatsoever. Oh, sweet little Lucy, you had everything you ever wanted, and now you let Norville do this to you. But what are you to do? You're not as strong as him, and you're clearly too stupid now to think for yourself, PATHETIC!"
Kevin grabbed Lucy by her ponytail and threw her on the ground and kicked her in the stomach.
"It's one thing to kill my best friend and not even care. It's another to embarrass the entire family with your weak bladder. Peeing yourself in front of Norville, how weak. You're so smart but you lack the strength to fight. You call yourself a future queen, you'd be nothing without me"
Kevin then knelt down and yanked Lucys necklace off of her.
"I gave you the inspiration to be bulletproof with this and you've done nothing to improve your skills. I blamed myself for what Palpatine did to you for so long, while you tried to make the best of your powers. You have the weakest powers in the game, and that's a known fact. Forgive me for my words sis, but I know you're not gonna remember any of what I just said"
Kevin then went to Lucys purse and pulled her lightsaber out of it. Out of anger, he sliced the bag in half
"Your bag of tricks has failed you with Norville, your inventions suck" Kevin angrily told her
He placed the lightsaber under her chin.
"I should just kill you now, end your suffering. I'd make a better ruler than you'd ever be. Letting you live was Norvilles big mistake" said Kevin
Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder, he knew who it was without looking. It was Jr.
"I told you to wait in my bedroom, we'll play LEGO Star Wars 3 after I talk to Lucy" said Kevin
"I know you're mad at Lucy, but zis von't fix anyzing" said Jr
"Lodhi, you don't understand. She killed you, embarrassed my family, all she does is brag and doesn't get results. I never asked for this life Lodhi, I do what I must to live" said Kevin
He tossed aside the lightsaber and stood up, but not before kicking Lucy in the face.
"I won't kill you sis, because I still love and care about you, but that doesn't change your mistakes" said Kevin angrily
"Don't be so hard on her" Jr begged
"She won't remember any of this" said Kevin
"I can bring her soul back Kevin…" Jr would state
"Can you really?" Kevin would ask surprised
"I can try…"
The 'perfected' children would walk back into the room as Jr would stand infront of Lucy
"Work your magic Jr…" Kevin would state
Jr would go into his skeletal form as he'd wave his right hand around
Kevin would grow nervous as almost immediately glowing cracks would cover Jr
Olivia's visor would suddenly cover her eyes and she'd scan Jr
"Seems whatever he's doing is taking a lot of strength and power…much more than his body can handle…" She'd state
Kevin would put a hand on Jr's shoulder
"You got this Jr…keep going…"
More cracks would appear on Jr's body as everyone in the room would see a red heart form infront of Jr and would slowly go into Lucy's body
Jr would return to his normal child form and would begin to fall
Kevin would quickly catch him
Everyone would turn to Lucy who'd slowly open her eyes
"W-what happened?" She'd ask
"You lost your soul...and thanks to Jr here…you got it back…"
Lucy would look at Jr who'd be exhausted
"Thank you Jr…perhaps I misjudged you…"
"My pleasure…." Jr would respond
A bell would suddenly ring
"Hey we all got to go…attack is starting soon…" Carl would state
Kevin would carry Jr away as Lucy would glare at the others
"YOU HEARD THE BELL MOVE!" She'd shout
The 'perfected' children would rush out of the room
"Whoopie she's back…" Vick would mutter
Everyone would gather in the courtyard
Vanellope would look at Lucy
"Good to see your back Lucy…" She'd state
"Happy to be back mother…."
Vanellope would look around
"Where's Kevin?" She'd ask
Kevin would suddenly glitch in beside her
"Here…I was just helping Jr get into my bed…it took everything he had and then some to get Lucy back…"
"I see…but no matter…-she'd turn to Copy Vanellope-…Copy…time to teleport…"
"Yes your highness…"
Copy would press a button on her metal wrist and everyone would be teleported into the hallway
The hallway would be filled with thick fog
Everyone would walk slowly towards where they believed the door was
Lucy would look over at a nearby pillar to her right
To her amazement she'd see a faint ghost like Torvald walked passed it
She'd pull on Kevin's sleeve
"Did you see that?"
"No…what are you talking about Lucy?"
Suddenly ghostly aspirations of Phipps, Marcy, Taffyta, Swizzle and Crumbelina would walk beside the large group
All heading in the same direction
Straight forward
Lucy would look down and would see that everyone minus Vanellope would be over the faint white line
She'd gulp as the wind would blow gently through the hallway
Everyone would look around nervously
They could feel Norville's presence in the hallway
However he wasn't visible
Something would catch Vanellope's attention and she'd turn around her back to the group
Suddenly and without warning
Everyone would be sent flying into the wall above the entrance
Each would get pinned there by a bone either through the leg or arm
Vanellope would know right away no one would be helping her
"…Fine…I'll do it myself…" She'd mutter as she'd slowly turn around
About 50 feet infront of her Norville would stand there
A large smile on his face
His yellow dots still present
Vanellope would tilt her head to one side slightly confused
"Hello Queen Vanellope…I vas vondering ven you vould show…" He'd state as he'd close his eyes
"Hello Norville…I guess this was probably inevitable…" Vanellope would toss her sword to the side and pull out a knife with a strange purple blade
Norville would open his eyes
The little dots gone leaving empty sockets
"Zen zis only ends one vay…" He'd state
Vanellope would look at her knife than back at Norville
Wind would blow through the hallway
Both of Norville's eyes would glow furiously
His smile would turn to a frown
His eyes would narrow
"And it ends now…"
To Vanellope's surprise a faint ghost like Torvald would have her arms wrapped around Norville
Everyone would watch as Vanellope would flinch slightly
"…I see you have no guilt…and the pain…is doing nothing…" Norville would state
Vanellope would grin. "I've been beaten to the point I'm numb to pain young one…all your doing is fueling me…"
With that she'd charge towards him
Norville would lift his left arm and 3 rows of bones would sprout out of the ground towards Vanellope
Vanellope would jump up over each row
Norville would flick his wrist
Vanellope would find herself surrounded by Gaster Blasters
With some effort she'd dodge all the fire
A small crack would appear around Norville's left eye
Kevin would watch the fight slightly confused
"What's wrong Kevin?" Linder would ask
"My mother isn't even trying to attack…she's either sizing him up…or trying to tire him out…it's not smart…Norville's going to land a hit…and when he does he'll make it hurt…"
More cracks would appear on Norville's body as his Gaster Blaster and bone attacks would become more intense and ferocious
Yet Vanellope would continue to dodge every attack
Worse
She was closing the distance between them
With every jump
Every side step
Every glitch
She was slowly getting closer
And Norville knew it
"Your strong Norville…however…I keep creeping closer…step by step…" Vanellope would state in her eerily sweet voice
Suddenly Norville's attacks would stop
Everyone would look at him confused
Vanellope would quickly lunge at him
He'd teleport back a few feet
Suddenly the wind would blow violently
Cracks would appear all over his body
Several gargantuan Gaster Blasters would appear beside him
Hundreds of sharp bones would float around him
He'd scream in agony as the power would put him in extreme pain as the power would take a severe toll on his body
Vanellope would kneel down in a stance an Olympic sprinter would take before racing down the track
"What is she doing?" Lucy would ask
Vanellope would grin as Norville would point to her
"DIE!" He'd almost shriek at her as all the Gaster Blaster and bones would fly and hit her all at once leaving nothing but a thick could of smoke
Norville would weakly stand breathing heavily
Suddenly
Vanellope would lunge out of the smoke
Badly burnt
But very much alive
The knife's purple blade slashing across his chest
Leaving a large
Bloody
Gash
Norville would fall to the ground gasping as a hand would cover his wound
The bones holding everyone else in place would disappear
"What's with that knife?" Lucy would ask
Vanellope would wipe the blood from the knife then look a Norville
"On the day of the accident that gave you your powers…I noticed crystals all over the place…your father conducted tests…and his results showed that these crystals canceled out your powers…along with the rest of the powered children…and seeing the damage you could cause and damage you could take…I knew I'd need a weapon that could put you out with one shot…"
Norville would sit against a pillar
And would begin to chuckle a large smile on his face
Blood leaking from his mouth
Everyone would cautiously back away from him
Norville would look at the blood on his sweater
A mix of the dried blood from cradling Jr mixed with the blood from his wound
He'd close his eyes
His smile turning into a frown
His chuckling becoming sobs
And tears would fall down his face
Kevin would see all the 'perfected' children look away
And see Candlehead putting the candle out on her hat
"Weaklings…." He'd mutter to himself
Lucy would walk over to Vanellope as the rest of the adults would start prying the door open
"Good job mother we finally got rid of the bane that was Norville Crisp Batterbutter…" She'd state with a smile of pure joy
Vanellope's expression would be the exact opposite
"What's wrong mother?" Lucy would ask
Vanellope would silently sheath her knife and sigh
"Never harm a child…this was a regrettable outcome…-she'd look at Lucy dead in the eyes-…children are always redeemable Lucy…even the ones in our world…even Norville could've been redeemable…it's the adults who are not…"
Norville's sobs would weakly fade away as his skeletal body would become limp against the pillar
"I wonder what caused him to bleed even though he was a skeleton…" Lucy would ponder
"Don't ponder on things like this Lucy…sometimes video game logic trumps even the most basic of things…"
"Ok…and Kevin stole my necklace…"
"A punishment for your failure…you'll get it back in time…" Kevin would state
"I agree with Kevin…" Vanellope would state
"Aw common!" Lucy would shout
Suddenly they'd hear Rancis shout out
"Doors open!"
They'd look down the hallway to see the door Norville had guarded so viciously had now been opened
Vanellope would walk through the doorway and grab a torch hanging from the wall
"Follow me…we have some fugitives to round up…" She'd state as she'd walk down the path
Everyone would nod and follow her
They'd walk for a while both amazed and impressed with the amount of work Gloyd went into making these tunnels
"Where do these tunnels even lead to?" Adorabeezle would ask walking beside Vanellope
"My best guess is near a hideout Gloyd made…" Vanellope would responses
Those thoughts would be quickly thrown out the window when they'd get to the exit of the tunnel
Which would be at the exit of the game
Meaning those Vanellope had been after
Those Norville died protecting
Weren't even in the game
Meaning the whole Norville fight was a pitiful waste of time
Vanellope's fist would clench
Her eyes would twitch
Everyone would back away from her in terror
Kevin would give Lucy her necklace back
"I think this is the last luxury we'll have in a while…"
Lucy would nervously nod as Copy Vanellope would even be backing away from Vanellope
Her self-preservation programming telling her to get as far from Vanellope as possible
Vanellope would let the torch she was holding fall to the ground
Everyone would look at her terrified
"Children…my throne room…15 minutes…adults 20…do not keep me waiting…" She'd state in a dark almost demonic voice as she crush the torch with her foot and glitch away
Copy Vanellope would teleport away
Even though she still feared destruction
Everyone would gulp and would begin the walk back down the tunnels
Knowing full well they had fail
Knowing full well Vanellope was angry
Knowing full well she wasn't going to show mercy in her punishments
Not even her own children
And even they knew it
"Kevin I'm rather worried about what mother might be planning on doing…"
"Don't worry Lucy…she wouldn't dare harm her legacies…atleast I hope…"
(Back in the hallway)
Norville would suddenly wake
Extremely weak
In pain
In absolute confusion
But alive
He'd weakly look around
"How am I?"
Torvald's aspiration would suddenly appear before him
"It is not your time Norville…you need to keep going…"
"I can't…the pain is unbearable…I have no energy left…no power…"
"Let me handle that…"
The aspiration would hug him
"I miss you mozer…"
"Don't worry son…we'll see eachother soon…"
With that she take the form of a heart and would enter Norville's body
His wound would suddenly glow yellow
His eye sockets would become yellow
"Run Norville…there is no point in staying in your hallway…hide and rest…you will know when the time is right…"
"Ok…votever you say mozer…"
With that Norville would weakly stand up and teleport away
(Back in GCS)
Ralph would be in panic as he'd try to collect his thoughts
"I thought Torvald's plan worked and erased every trace of the virus from Vanellope's code!"
"The whole virus plan was a ruse…everything that's happened since that day has been nothing but a ruse…she never changed…she plotted all this time…now the world's hers now…and besides those that are on her side…we're all that's left…" Akio would coldly respond
"Ralph I wish we were joking but you need to get everyone out of your game now!" Annie would shout at the Ralph who'd tower over her
Ralph would take a phone out of his pocket and would quickly dial Felix's number
"Hey Ralph what up my brother?" Felix would respond
"Is everyone with you right now?" Ralph would ask
"Everyone except Calhoun…she went back to her game apparently there was a new update to the game…why?"
"Felix I know this won't make sense but I don't have the time to explain…you need to get everyone out of there now!"
"What why?"
"Because…"
Before Ralph could say another word the entrance to the Wreck-it Ralph game would begin to close
"Felix!"
"Ralph what's going on?! The game is crumbling as if it was being deleted!"
"FELIX GET OUT NOW!"
"I can't the trains gone…whoa…ground…breaking up….AAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
The line would suddenly go dead
No buzz
No beep
No sign that Felix had just hung up
Silence as if
The phone was just floating in an abyss
An empty void
No character or anyone to interact with it
"FELIX?! FELIX!" Ralph would shout in a state of rage mixed with sadness
He'd run over to the closed exit of his game
He'd smash his fists against the walls blocking where there'd normally be a path leading to a train to enter the game
"LET ME IN!" He'd shout smashing the wall in blinded anger
Around the arcade characters would watch on in horror
Litwak hadn't unplugged the game
Hell he wasn't even in the arcade
Yet
Wreck-it Ralph seemed to have been deleted
Calhoun would be in her game
She'd notice that Wreck-it Ralph screen was all black
She'd instantly be worried knowing that's not normal
Suddenly a trooper would run in the room and tell her what he just saw
(not even 5 minutes later)
Ralph would still be pounding the wall when suddenly someone would suddenly pinch his heck and bring him to his knees
He'd look to see it was Calhoun
But instead of having her usual stern expression
She had a look of extreme concern and fear
"Where's Felix…where are the others Wreck-it?!"
Ralph would finally calm
But instead of words
Only tears would fall down his face as he'd break down
Calhoun would look at the group of Sugar Rush racers
"Don't tell me she did this…"
Herschel would look at her dead in the eyes
"I'm sorry…but no one made it out of the game in time…Ralph called Felix right as it happened…and…well…he heard every last moment…"
Calhoun would rub her forehead
Everyone for the first time seeing not a stern commanding officer
But someone on the verge of a meltdown
Annie would walk up to Calhoun
She'd silently hug her
Calhoun would wrap her arms around the racers and finally
Break
Every game character watching would leave
GCS would quickly become a deserted quiet place
The only sounds would be the breakdowns of 2 characters
1 who lost a brother, family and entire game
The other who lost her husband, the only bright shining light in her world
The group of surviving racers and children would head to a game Candlehead and Gloyd had hid in long ago
Only Annie remained with the 2 grieving characters
Not because the others didn't care
Just
Annie knew she was the only one they wanted there
End Ch.4
I hope you enjoyed this chapter
It took way longer than it should have to make
I'm hoping it doesn't take this long again
Anyway reviews and feedback are always appreciated
And I will see you all in the next chapter
