Save Him

Anti was crawling out of the TV and he looked PISSED.

Everyone looked horrified at what he had become.

Damien was still trying to process it when Sean grabbed a hold of him.

"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO HIM, YOU MONSTER!?"

Damien was crying, "I'm sorry! It wasn't supposed to go like this!"

"SEAN, LOOK OUT!" Marvin grabbed hold of Anti with a spell. The corrupted monster had tried attacking them first.

Marvin whipped Anti around into a wall. They could hear Anti's pained moaning.

Jackie stood to defend Sean but he glared at Damien, "How do we undo this?"

Damien was silent.

"DARK!" Jackie yelled at him, "HOW THE FUCK DO WE CHANGE HIM BACK!?"

"I DON'T KNOW!"

Wilford was suddenly in front of Dark and gripped his face, "Huh . . you don't look like Darky"

Chase shot at Anti to keep him back but the monster just roared, getting more angry, "WHO THE FUCK ELSE DOES IT LOOK LIKE!? ETHAN?!"

Mark took a closer look, grabbing Damien by his shoulder. Of course Mark was pissed off at Dark for all the horrible things he's secretly done but one look in his eyes told him all he needed to know.

"Damien  .. . . whatever spell you let Actor do. . . it worked"

"Vait, so this ISN'T Dark?!" Henrik tried to get a grasp on the situation.

Anti tried to run at Sean and Damien again, teeth and claws at the ready, but Google collided with him instead and held onto him, trying to bring him down to the ground.

It wasn't working.

Anti roared again and gave loud monster-like cries that almost sounded like crying.

The ectoplasm leeched off of him and crawled its way onto Google's arms. Since he was mechanical, though, it didn't effect him like it would a human. 

But Google couldn't hold onto him for long. Anti's strength was building and the strange black ectoplasm goo was causing Google's arms to break, electricity popping off of him.

"Dammit, Anti! Get ahold of yourself! It's ME! Google!"

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHRRRRR!!!" He only roared back.

Anti managed to shove Google off of him.

Jackie threw Sean to the other end of the living room but Anti was still making a beeline straight towards Damien, "Sean isn't his target! It's Dark!"

"It's Damien!" Mark corrected him, "No! We can't let Anti get to him!"

"Why not!?" Chase had half a mind to shoot Damien in the head himself.

Marvin managed to lock onto Anti again and contain him, stopping him mid jump before he could attack Damien.

"Weren't you listening to him!? They did a fucking ritual! A piece of Anti's soul is in Dark's body! If Anti kills him, he's gonna end up killing himself!"

"GODDAMMIT!" Jackie didn't like the idea of having to protect Dark after everything they all witnessed on the videos but if it was for Anti, he'd do it.

Mark cursed under his breath, "We're going to talk about all of this later, Damien. For now, everyone shield him!"

Damien was distraught.

Inside, he knew what he had to do. What must be done.

"I'm so sorry"

He still was partly Dark, after all. 

He had to make amends. 

Feeling that piece of Anti inside of him wailing in pain, it hurt him. He never wanted this. Why did he let it ever get this far?

He looked upon the chaos Dark had unraveled with Actor. What he let happen.

The Septic egos were  guarding Damien against their own brother that he had hurt. The Iplier egos were surrounding him as if he needed to be protected.

Anti wailed and cried out like a wounded elk, snared by Marvin's magic. He was ripping through.

Jackie stood in front of him, tears down his eyes, "Anti . . . I'm so sorry. I should have been a better hero . . for you"

Anti's jaw was unhinged like a snake. His sharp teeth were like daggers and his claws like steak knives. The black inky goo singed the floor as it oozed off of him. The multiple green eyes on his body looked around wildly almost in fear.

But even though he looked like a monster. . . . . 

Jackie could just see now how scared he was. How angry he was.

His neon green eyes leaked a glowing liquid down his face.

He was crying.


Damien knew the only way to fix this.

And he had to take care of it NOW.


He was about to step forward when suddenly an axe came out of nowhere and chopped down on Anti's shoulder!

"NO!" Jackie shouted.

They looked over to see Actor looking all high and mighty, so proud of himself.

"Did you see that!!? Seems I'm the hero after all in this! Don't you worry, I'll fix Celine up as good as rain!"

"ACTOR NO!" Mark yelled at him but it was too late.

Actor laughed insanely and collided into Anti who then screeched and wailed. Anti had somehow melded into him, being sucked into his body like an endless void.

"No" Damien whimpered, "No, no, he's gonna destroy the rest of Anti's soul!"

"What!?" Sean gasped, "But WHY?!"

"I . . I don't know. I think he thinks that killing Anti's soul will stop the corruption and allow Celine's soul to fully take over." Damien held his heart again as if holding a small Anti to his chest, "I . . .I don't think he cares or realizes that Celine's soul is the one corrupting Anti's"

Anti's corrupted body became a little sluggish but still looked lethal. He wailed like a wounded animal and just as loud. He looked sick now but still crying.

He no longer cared about them all around him.

He was starting to die.

Jackie cried, "NO. . .No, no, no, there has to be something we can do. Marvin?"

Marvin just looked defeated, though, "I. . . I don't know. . . . I. . maybe if he had the rest of his soul?"

Damien nodded, "Got it. I'll go in and give it back to him"

"Who says we trust you at all after everything?" Henrik asked him, "If you give that piece of Anti's soul back that's in you, won't you die? Zhat is what is keeping you alive, yes?"

Damien nodded, ". . . . . yes  . . . . yes, it is. But after everything Dark. . ..  everything I did. . . .I need to atone for those sins." he looked back at Jackie who still really wanted to kill him, "Please. . . . let me help him"

Jackie closed his eyes, " . . As if we have any other option. You save him. . ..  I hope you die in the process, though"

Damien didn't blame him. He came forward in front of Anti.

The monster Anti had become couldn't even look at him now.

It was. . . afraid?

"Don't worry, Anti. . . . I'll make this right. I swear to you. Let me in. . .. please"

Sean had his hands in his hair, crying, "Please fucking save him . . . I have to apologize to him. . .I have to let him know I love him. It can't end like this"

Damien placed his hand on the corrupted Anti's cheek, letting the ectoplasm seep onto his skin. He got close.

Anti let out a sound that almost sounded like a whimper.

"I'm gonna save you. I promise" Damien opened his mouth and let his aura seep into HIM just like Dark's powers. However, this time, Damien allow his whole self to be sucked in, being absorbed by Anti's body.

All of a sudden, Anti screamed and struggled once more.

"SHIT!" Marvin tried to focus on holding him again, "FUCK, I HOPE THE BASTARD HURRIES!"

"ANTI, PLEASE!" Chase yelled, "IT'S GONNA BE OKAY! JUST CALM DOWN!"

"RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

Yancy muttered to Illinois, "I don't speak gooey glitchy monster but I think he said 'no'."




Meanwhile, Damien opened his eyes.

There was snow.

It was dark, like evening but there was no moon.

There were multiple chopped down trees.

"I remember this place. . . . . ." Damien said to himself, "The cabin . . . . we're in Celine's mind"

In the distance, he could hear something loud like a storm.

Turning around, Damien could see the massive wall of blowing snow not too far off. It looked like a small hurricane of a blizzard.

He knew where that was.

"The lake"

Inside, he could feel Anti's piece of soul in him try and reach out.

"Yes, I know. It's over there. We'll reunite you, I promise. Whatever it takes"
