Severed Strings
Jackaboy-Man should be first to be freed, Sean thought as he ran towards with fear and determination twisting his stomach in a knot.
"Jackaboy-Man, you don't have to do this! Anti's your enemy, he wants to kill you!" Sean cried as Anti stormed towards him.
Jackaboy-Man reacted by staring emotionlessly at him as if he hadn't heard Sean at all.
"You're my inner superhero, I need you Jackaboy-"
Sean broke off when Anti reaches him and pressed his knife to Sean's throat, leaving a small cut on his neck that made blood rise up on his pale skin.
"You're alone Sean, and you'll die alone." Anti snarled.
Sean closed his eyes and braced for death, feeling surprisingly calm.
When he dared open his eyes, Jackaboy-Man had his normal eye color back when he looked at Sean with a small smile.
"You're never alone Sean, I got your back." He promised.
"Finally, the time for our battle has finally came." Anti grinned as he pushed himself up off of the ground.
"I'll distract him, you go find Marvin." Jackaboy-Man directed Sean as he eyed Anti warily.
Sean nodded in understanding, then quickly darted off to find the magician ego.
He was using his magic left and right on Trix's illusion clones without looking tired at all, his black eyes narrowed in concentration.
"Marv! Hey!" Sean called out, panting slightly once he reached him.
"Get away from me!" Marvin snarled as he tossed a card at Sean, causing him to be trapped in place by vines that had burst out of the ground.
"Kill him!" Anti snapped at Marvin as he fought off Robbie and Jackaboy-Man with the help of his sister.
"Marvin!" Sean cried as he desperately struggled to free his legs while Marvin slowly approached him with an evil gleam in his eyes.
As a last resort, Sean tore off Marvin's mask.
Marvin abruptly froze in place, his hands instinctively reaching up to hide his face.
"Marvin, you don't need to hide from me. I know there's bad things out in the world, but I'm not one of them. You don't have to pretend." Sean soothed the distraught ego.
"I..." Marvin trailed off as he lowered his hands, his eyes back to their normal color.
"Thanks." Marvin nodded in appreciation.
"Anytime. Now do your magic." Sean encouraged as he offered Marvin back his mask.
Marvin took the mask back and put it over his face.
He paused when he saw Felix's body on the floor, his thoughts conflicted until he saw the despaired look on Sean's face.
He had to save Sean's friend.
Even if he was an asshole.
Marvin cursed under his breath as he pulled a card out of his deck and healed Felix, pulling the knife out of him and throwing it far away.
"What the-"
"Shut up and stay safe." Marvin instructed coldly.
Felix instantly shut his mouth and ran to the back of the room far from the danger.
Just as Marvin turned to help Jackaboy-Man, Trix, and Robbie fight Anti and his sister, he was met with a black eyed Jameson holding a baseball bat covered in nails in his hand.
Meanwhile, somehow Anti was growing stronger as each ego was freed from his control, allowing him to now create multiple knives at once that he sent towards the egos to keep them at bay while his sister targeted Jackaboy-Man since he was doing well in dodging.
"Next up, Jameson." Sean decided aloud as he spotted the dapper ego wreaking havoc against Marvin.
Jameson was throwing everything he could think of at Marvin, including things like a cannon, a viper, and even a ninja.
Marvin was quickly tiring since he didn't have Anti's power controlling him, making his spells weak and barely effective.
"Jameson!" Sean beckoned, watching as he turned to face him while Marvin fell to the ground completely exhausted.
"You're my creative side, you fuel what I do in my videos and make them amazing, I need you back!" Sean pleaded as Jameson retrieved a samurai sword from behind his back and raised it over his head.
"Jameson-"
Sean was cut off as the blade sliced across his abdomen, causing him to fall to the floor.
"Sean!" Jackaboy-Man yelped after glancing over just in time to see him fall to the ground.
Jameson's eyes flickered back to blue as he gazed at Sean's bloody body, his eyes wide in shock as he stared down at his hands with tears gathering in his eyes that blurred his vision.
Jameson ran to Schneeplestien after seeing him standing with Chase Brody, motioning for them to follow him.
They chased after him with the intent to kill, but froze when they saw Sean on the floor.
Jameson watched as their eyes returned to their normal colors, Schneep's face paling in fear.
"Chase, I can't do zhis." Schneep stated, shaking his head as he backed away.
"Doc, you gotta trust in yourself. Anti showed you Sean dying to make you doubt yourself, but you can do this. You're the great Doctor Schneeplestien, nothing can stop you!" Chase encouraged energetically.
"I...ok." Schneep sighed as he knelt down by Sean.
"Jameson stay here vith me, you can help." Schneep instructed.
As Jameson got to work handing Schneep the tools he needed, Chase found Marvin and managed to re-energize him so he could join the fight again.
"You're all idiots, you think you can stop me? I've only grown more powerful this entire time!" Anti laughed gleefully as he stomped his foot, creating a large crack in the ground that gradually widened and caused the room to be separated in half.
"I can take people across, I can jump the gap." Jackaboy-Man volunteered as the egos minus Schneep gathered.
While the other egos discussed a plan for how to get across, Jameson created a trampoline and bounced across the gap to land in front of Anti and his sister.
"I guess that's our plan then." Chase remarked before hopping across next with Jackaboy-Man, Marvin, and Robbie in tow.
"There, you're all patched up." Schneep announced proudly as Sean sat up.
Stitches lined his stomach, the skin numb so he couldn't feel the pain as badly.
"Thanks Schneep, I knew you could do it." Sean replied.
"I knew too, for I am zhe good doctor, Doctor Schneeplestien." Schneep crowed.
"Alright alright, go help the others. I'll be fine." Sean waved him off, watching as Schneep ran to the trampoline and glanced back once more before clearing the gap.
