The next morning, you're on the Once-Ler's bed with him in his mansion. It's 9pm, so the attraction hasn't opened, yet. The park doesn't open until 11am, anyhow. You begin to open your eyes.

You look ahead to see a sleeping Once-Ler and you smile. You stroke his face. He sighs in his sleep. You say, "Pss. Hey... Once-Ler." He groans a bit in his sleep. You say, "Hey, man. Get the fuck up." He opens his eyes and he looks at you. You say, "Hey." He smiles and says, "Ooh, last night was so good.~" You smirk and you say, "Yeah it was.~" 

You sit up and you support yourself on your hands. You look down at him and you say, "Hey, man... Was that really her? I felt a presence, last night. Like, right outside the doors of your room, man. It was weird. I knew it was another entity like yourself... but far more evil. Just saying, man. Like, totally wicked... literally." 

He sighs and he sits up to face you. He says, "I know it's her. My mother. Isabella. She's worse than I am. She's the one who kept pushing me to kill anyone that came in during the night." You say, "Holy shit. You for real?" He sighs and says, "Yes." 

He looks at you and he says, "I regret being a horrible husband to my now defunct wife, Lady Katherine. She deserved better than me. It was all under my mom's influence, though. All I wanted my entire life was my mother's love. Now, I don't care. I don't care about HER. That woman could never know what love actually felt like. I did. My brothers were the only family members to feel a slight bit of remorse." 

You say, "You're not alone, babe. I don't care about my mom, either. Like I said before, man... That's something you and I have in common. Shitty moms." He strokes your face and he says, "You're the most beautiful thing in the world, (Y/N). I'll protect you from Lady Isabella. She no longer deserves the title as my MOTHER. From now on, she's Isabella." 

You say, "Oh man. Same here with mine. She's been Rita in my book for several years, man. I hate the cunt. She was a prostitute. Normally, I wouldn't judge on that part. Some women have to do that for the money to get a can of soup or Hamburger Helper. But fucking love your kids, man. She fucking sucked. I'm better off without her. My grandma was good to me while my old man was in prison." 

He says, "I know they're going to find out about me." You put your hand on his face and he looks at you. You say, "It's gonna be alright, Once-Ler. My grandma will find out that you're not as evil as everybody thought. I know. I can sense it, now. You were good, even after becoming this entity. It was all under your mom's pressure to harm others... wasn't it?" He says, "Yes." 

You say, "Once-Ler. I love you. Just know that." He sighs and he smiles saying, "I'm glad I've met you. You accept me. You're a masochist. Laid back. You're the perfect woman." You say, "My old man may want to meet you, though. He did tell me after he got out of prison that any guy I date will have to meet him." He sighs and he says, "Alright... I'll do it." You smile.

**************************************************

Later on, you're at the carnival. Your dad got you a job there. You quit your old one with your horrible boss and now you're working there at the carnival. And at a convenient store at times to make ends meet. As long as you made money to pay for rent at yours and Wendy's apartment. 

Turns out, Wayne Marbles the guy you met at the carnival that one day also works at the convenient store. He seems to take a real liking to Wendy, too. He's been flirting with her a lot. She'd pull the sassy attitude on him by saying, "Dream on, man." or "In your dreams, motherfucker." You would just laugh at it.

 You've got Wendy with you as you both walk around the carnival. She smirks and says, "So, you and monster man had at it last night, huh?" You sigh and you smile saying, "He was so good. Last night was fucking magical, man. He had his claws in my sides while fucking me. It was amazing.~" 

She says, "Ch. Yeah. 'Cause you a damn masochist, woman." You say, "All worth it, man. I had him against he wall as I sucked him off. Pleased his balls, too. He fucking loved it.~" She says, "Ch, girl. At least you finally got some." You say, "Yeah. But I felt another presence in the attraction, man. It wasn't a human, either." She says, "You for real?" You say, "Yeah." 

You hear this, "Hey, girls." You stop and you look to see your dad. You say, "Hey, dad. How's it going, old man?" He says, "Good. Really good. Hey um... Your grandma was telling me something just a while ago." You say, "She knows about the Once-Ler and I, doesn't she?" He says, "I'm not going into detail, but she says you went to see him last night. She sensed it." 

You say, "About that, dad... I told the Once-Ler you'd get to meet him." He says, "Yeah. I actually would like to meet any guy you date. Monster or not. He was with my daughter." You say, "I'm sure he's still in the attraction like he has been since he died." Your dad says, "Take me there. I'm confronting the boy, myself." Wendy says, "Ah shit." You all walk to the attraction.

You get there and your dad heads inside. You say, "Ah shit. Dad, hold on, man!" You head inside. Wendy says, "This oughta be interesting." Your dad heads upstairs and yells, "Once-Ler! Come out here!" You get upstairs and you say, "Hey, man! Come on!" 

Your dad stops and he looks at you saying, "No no. Hold on, honey." He looks around and he yells, "Once-Ler!" You both hear this, "Right behind you, old man." You and your dad turn around and there he is. The Once-Ler. 

Now he's face to face with your dad.  He grins. Your dad points to him saying, "Wipe that smug grin off your face, boy." The Once-Ler gulps and he stops smiling. You sigh and you say, "Come on, dad. He didn't do anything, man." 

Your dad says, "Yes he did. He had you in his room, possibly doing god knows what to you. I have every right to confront the boy. I don't give a shit if you're already out on your own. You're MY daughter." You sigh. 

He faces the Once-Ler and says, "So, you're the one who's been with my daughter, huh? My mom sensed it. She is a gypsy and knows." The Once-Ler says, "Yes, sir. L-look. I'm not hurting her. I refrained from killing her, sir. It's all under my mom's influence." Your dad says, "Your mom? Lady Isabella?" Once-Ler says, "Yes." 

You say, "Dad. I'm sure she's still around. Hasn't left, herself. I felt a presence outside the doors of the Once-Ler's room." Your dad looks at you and he says, "Wait... YOU sensed it?" You say, "Yeah, man. Like wind or something." 

Your dad looks at the Once-Ler and he says, "I'll have a talk with you alone." He looks at you and says, "You might want to talk to your grandma." You say, "Okay. Go easy on the Once-Ler, okay?" He says, "Honey. I will." You say, "Thanks, man." You look at the Once-Ler and you say, "Hey. It'll be alright. I love you." The Once-Ler says, "Love you too." You smile and you walk off. 

But then you stop and you say, "Wait." Your dad and your boyfriend both look over at you. You turn to face them and you say, "Holy shit. I get it, now." Your dad says, "You figured it out already, didn't you?" 

You look at him and you say, "I have grandma's psychic abilities, man. I see what she sees, now. But... You don't?" He says, "It skips the men, sweetheart. Go have a talk with your grandma. She'll tell you everything." You say, "Okay. I'll be back." You walk downstairs and out of the mansion.
