Ahem! Today.
I'll tell you the story of the lost book of prophecies.
This prophetic book was a mysterious tome full of stories of future events.
Of course, many people craved this book, wishing to glimpse their futures.
But no person, after obtaining this amazing book, ever found happiness.
The reason? The book held frightful secrets not meant for people's eyes.
That book came to be called the Dark Prognosticus and was sealed away.
This is the tale of that forgotten book's last owner.
It is a tale of love...

Our story starts at the humble home of the hero of the Spider Kingdom.
Of course he didn't live there alone he had his best friend living with him as a roommate.
The hero of the Spider Kingdom was an magician who calls himself Dimentio. Master Of Dimensions! Pleaser Of Crowds!
He looked a bit like some sort of jester. His a mask half white. Half black. With his jester like appearnce being purple and light yellow cape but he also was wearing a blue cloak on top of that. His jester hat was purple with two ends and on top of it was a third end that was shorter then the other ones and was light yellow. At each end of the two long ones was a yellow face. One kinda looked dead with xs on it's eyes. While the other looked ready to cause chaos.
With his magic that he holds he is able to rescue the Princess of this Kingdom with ease. Princess Mimi from the evil King O'Chunks!
But he does try and make it entertaining for himself. Like not teleporting with the Princess immediately and fight O'Chunks first to satisfy himself.
"Finally we can have a moment of peace." Said his roommate. As the both of them were just sitting down at a table trying to enjoy their day.
Dimentio's roommate was...Well a ghost or a Boo as he perferred to be called. Matter of fact he's the King of them.
He was well...A dethroned King Of Ghosts.
So he would go by King Of Boos instead. He doesn't really speaking on the matter of the dethroning and has a disdain for ghosts who are not Boos.
His roommate had a few light purple scars across his arms,tail and body. He calls them his death scars. Scars that a Ghost gets from whatever caused them to die.
But it is rumored that some of those scars which from his death but about something he doesn't want to talk about.
But Dimentio wouldn't try and force answers out of his best friend.
He surprisingly respects his privacy on that matter.
The King Of Boos. Move his crown slightly out of habit.
"Thankfully I'm glad for it."
Dimentio chuckled. "Aww. Don't you find our adventures fun KB?"
"No."
"Not even a little?"
"No."
"Hehe. Stubborn as ever I see."
Dimentio laid back in his chair.
"But today is a bit boring." Dimentio looks up at the ceiling.
"Hmm. I know."
Dimentio gets up from his chair.
"Let's go over to Mimi's and then I can steal her diary. Maybe she's written anything hilarious. Like some dude she's got a crush on. I really don't see the appeal for that." Dimentio got to his feet. And King Boo sighed at his friend.
"Already going off to steal her diary for fun. Well I'll come to."
"Oooh. Joining in on the fun finally KB?" King Boo floats off his chair.
"No. I making sure nothing goes wrong. Princess Mimi is our friend and I'm making sure you don't go to far with your diary reading."
Dimentio then leans with his whole body onto King Boo. "Oh don't be like that~"
"DIMENTIO QUIT IT! GET OFF ME!"
"It's gravity KB~ Not my fault."
"I KNOW YOU'RE MESSING WITH ME!" King Boo then pushed Dimentio off him and Dimentio just floated away in the air.
Dimentio floats over to the door to open it. "Well let's get going."
Just as Dimentio opens the door there were screams on the outside.
"There goes that peaceful day. Then again a day is never peaceful with Dimentio around."
And the both of them quickly head outside.
-...-
They head outside to see one of the panicking citizens. It was Spide. Spides were the main citizens of the Spider Kingdom. They had eight legs with their head have two antennas on top. with two fangs coming out of their mouth and their abdomen being a circle with white with spots on. But sometimes these spots were different colors. But this Spide had red spots on.
Waving all it's eight legs in a panic.
"Bad news! PANIC! PANIC!"
The Spide quickly climbed up the wooden steps of the house.
The Spide waves it's two front legs. "Bad news you two!"
"Well spit it out. What's wrong?" King Boo said harshly. But he was just concern on what was making the Spide panic.
"T-The Castle! IT'S BEEN RAIDED! AND OUR PRINCESS IS GONE!"
"What!?" King Boo said in shock.
While Dimentio just chuckled. "Well at least today isn't going to be boring anymore."
"Dimentio!" King Boo yells at Dimentio for his lack of concern for Mimi.
Dimentio shrugs. "Come on KB. We already know who did this. It was O'Chunks of course. And with a snap of my fingers we'll be there and beat him up."
"Obviously! You can at least show some concern." King Boo argues back.
Dimentio poked King Boo in the face. "Now. Now. Let's go and save her. And then some diary reading."
And with a snap of his finger they were both teleported away.
But the Spide was there left behind. "Umm...Uhhh good luck! If you can even hear me..."
-...-
In the dark area of the volcanic lands.
There lived the Valiant Kingdom named by the King himself.
This Kingdom was home to King O'Chunks and his minions. He had gloves on his hands with sharp claw like hands with spikey red collars on his wrist and arms. And he seemed to have a dark purple shell on his back. That had been specially enchanted to reflect magic so he could have a chance against his rival Dimentio.
"Alright listen well me elite minion task force!" He spoke towards his cheering minions. "It's time teh initiate me evil plan teh take over the Spider Kingdom!"
"It's the day I make Princess Mimi. Mine!"
"an' I'll deal with that magician and ghost friend o' her's teh!" O'Chunks boasted to his minions. The Minions standing there were Squiglets,Squigs,Sproing-Oings,Boomboxers,Jawbuses, and Cherbils.
And right in the middle of the crowd teleported right in knocking back some of the cheering minions.
"'Ey! What 'tis going on over there!?" O'Chunks jumped into the crowd of minions who quickly ran away to make room for their King.
"Salutations, O'Chunks." Dimentio said casually.
"WHAT!? Dimentio!? an' King Boo! How did yeh even get in 'ere!?"
"We teleported." King Boo said bluntly.
"'Ey! know then ho- Wait... Which idiot forget about the magic defense system!?"
King Boo rolls his eyes. "Whatever. Just make this easy on yourself and hand over the Princess."
O'Chunks then blinked confused.
"What yeh talkin' about? We just about teh-"
"YOU CREEP LET ME GO RIGHT NOW!"
All of them looked around hearing the scream.
Right in front of them appeared a very familiar figure which everyone knew it was none other than Princess Mimi. She wore a bright yellow dress with white fluffy like fabric long the dress that the bottom drapping down the dress's both sides and it being around her neck. The dress was also fitted with bright red rubees and her bright golden crown was the some with rubees also fitted into it. Princess Mimi was not someone you would want to mess with. Everyone in the Spider Kingdom knows this. Because she had a very frightening form that while everyone in the Spider Kingdom has gotten used to it was still pretty disturbing. She normally doesn't use it full on and just sticks to summoning the leg part of it to use as extra arms. She only uses it when she's really angry at the person like...Dimentio.
But now if she ever get's out of that barrier. She has found a new target.
King Boo and Dimentio looked over to see the trapped Princess.
"Huh...This is unexpected." Dimentio says.
"Mimi!" King Boo said worried.
And right beside in comes a strange figure. As if the figure was a made of dark shadows and parts of her weren't exactly attached to her. Her body made out of curved shape and rectangles leading down to a point triangle tail. Keeping her floating seemed to be the four triangle wings. With also her arms being long curved triangles and her fingers being smaller triangles. Around her neck is some sort of bow keeping together a top part of a cape with a bottom part of a cape very top near her head is broken up crown. And finally covered half of her face was some of her hair and her visible eye glared down upon them.
"Hehehe so you wish to know who took your Princess? Well here I am!"
"I'm Countess Shay!"
"Yeh...By who!?" O'Chunks questioned confused.
"Seems we have some slow brains. Ahem! Countess Shay is I! I'm the chosen executor of the Dark Prognosticus!"
"Dark Prognosticus." Dimentio said deep in thought.
Oh you gotta be kidding me!
"Countess Shay! Whatever I'm on a schedule 'ere!" O'Chunks demands.
"Hehehe! No! I have plans for this Princess as she'll be used to destroy all worlds as stated within the Dark Prognosticus." Countess Shay giggled looking down upon them all with an meancing smile.
"Y-You're kidding right?" King Boo frightened.
"Now that won't do." Dimentio said launching a blast of magic right toward Countess Shay.
But another barrier appeared blocking the magic from hitting her.
"Well that's annoying..." Dimentio said annoyed at his magic being blocked.
Countess Shay brought fourth shadows towards Dimentio striking him.
"ACK!" And Dimentio fell to the ground.
"Dimentio!" King Boo cried rushing to his best friend's side.
Everyone was taken back how easily The Countess struck down Dimentio with a single hit.
"Did you really think it would be that easy to defeat me?" Countess Shay sneered at the fallen magician. She looked at him perplexed for a second before shaking her head and turning to the others.
"Alright yeh! Release teh Princess! Or I'm about teh get Chunky on yeh!" The backed up minions all walk forward get ready for their King's orders as they eye the Countess.
"Hehehe oh dear King O'Chunks it's not only her I require."
"I need you. As well as your minions." She smiled creepily at them.
"What?" O'Chunks replied.
Countess Shay grinned as she raised up her arm and a vortex of darkness and shadows opens up behind her.
It darkness cover the room sweeping up everyone in the room as they all screamed as they're all sucked inside of it. Leaving only Countess Shay and Dimentio alone in the Castle.
"Hehehe...The preparations are going very smoothly. And I thought this was going to be difficult. Now time for the dimensional void to appear just as it's foretold in the prophecy." Countess Shay gives Dimentio a side glance before she vanished.
Leaving behind Dimentio unconscious on the ground all alone.
