《Origami King: The After-Fold》The Storm Before The Storm
Advertisement
Mr.L sprinted to the source of the scream while Olly and Olivia floated closely behind.
"There!" Mr.L shouted.
Olivia and Olly followed his gaze to a blue man and a woman being attacked by D-Men. The blue-skinned man caught sight of them.
"Mr.L!" He exclaimed.
"Who are those two?" Olivia asked Mr.L.
"Blumiere and Timpani." Mr.L replied.
The group of D-Men turned to face the three.
"There's the two origami kids!" One D-Man shouted, "And the green one too!"
"Get them!" The leader shouted.
Two D-Men stayed behind to hold down Blumiere and Timpani while the rest charged Mr.L, Olly, and Olivia. The three got into a fighting position.
"You think that your power is good enough to take these goons down?" Mr.L asked them.
"I might be injured, but I can still put up a fight!" Olly exclaimed.
Mr.L activated his Thunderhand while Olly summoned a streamer that he held at the ready. Olivia was hesitant.
"Fight? Do we really need to fight?" Olivia asked.
Olly sighed.
"Olivia, if you do not wish to fight, you can stay back and away from harm," Olly told her.
Olivia nodded and floated off to the side. Olly and Mr.L turned back towards the D-Men.
"Ladies first." Mr.L muttered.
The D-Man hoard collided with the two and sparks went flying every which way. Olly strung up their spears in a streamer and snapped them all in two, then flung them off of the edge of Flipside. Mr.L knocked the D-Men back with his Thunderhand, electrocuting them in the process. The D-Men resorted to hand-to-hand combat, they were no match.
"HAVE AT YOU!" Mr.L shouted.
Mr.L sprung at the D-Man holding down Blumiere and knocked it out with one swift motion. Blumiere immediately recovered and threw the D-Man off of Timpani.

"Are you alright, dear?" Blumiere asked, helping her up.
"Now that they're gone, yes." Timpani sighed.
Olly looked around the unconscious D-Men with panic.
"Wh-where did Olivia go?!" Olly exclaimed.
"OLLY!!!" Olivia screamed.
They looked around but couldn't see her. One of the remaining D-Men had taken her hostage and was running to the dimensional door.
"That came from Flipside Tower! But... I can't make it there in time!" Olly said, panic evident in his voice.
"And if she gets taken to the Underwhere then this whole thing was pointless!" Mr.L exclaimed.
"I can help with that," Blumiere stated.
Blumiere snapped his fingers and they were teleported on top of the tower. Olly looked around frantically.
"OLIVIA!" Olly shouted.
Olivia was hanging on for dear life on the edge of the purple dimensional door.
"Urg... I'm not leaving my brother again!" Olivia exclaimed.
Olivia shoved the D-Man through the door and then quickly unfolded. She refolded into the ice Velumental and froze the door shut. Mr.L, Blumiere, and Timpani stood in shock while Olly quickly floated up and hugged her.
"Don't you ever leave my sight ever again!" Olly murmured.
Olivia refolded back to normal and hugged him back.
"I don't think that anyone is coming out of that door anytime soon." Olivia chuckled.
Mr.L snapped his fingers in realization.
"I almost forgot why we're here!" Mr.L exclaimed, "Blumiere, Timpani, we need help."
"Of course. Does it have anything to do with the fact that we were all attacked by D-Men?" Blumiere asked.
Mr.L rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly.
"Yeah... It kinda has everything to do with that..." Mr.L replied.
"Whatever it is, I hope we can help!" Timpani replied cheerfully.
"Okay, but before I ask anything, I want you to meet these two formally." Mr.L said.

Mr.L brought Olly and Olivia forward.
"This is King Olly and Olivia. They were both folded from two pieces of Dimentio's paper." Mr.L told them.
"Hi! Nice to meet you!" Olivia chirped.
Olly just gave a nervous wave. Blumiere stood frozen while Timpani knelt down to face Olly and Olivia.
"Oooooooh! You two are so cute! I should have known that you two were from his paper. You three are all so colorful!" Timpani exclaimed.
Timpani wrapped them into a hug.
"I like her!" Olivia exclaimed.
"URK! Too tight..." Olly muttered.
Timpani let go of them and gently placed the two back onto the floor. Blumiere looked them over, his expression was emotionless.
"Mr.L... Are you certain that they are from Dimentio's paper? They don't seem much like him, despite their colors... Olivia could be his happiness that he masked with insanity, but what about Olly?" Blumiere questioned.
Blumiere stooped over to look Olly in the eye. Olly immediately broke into a nervous sweat.
"Mr.L, could you please tell me more about Olly? Something that might convince me?" Blumiere asked.
"Ha! Oh, I know a good one." Mr.L chuckled, "The Origami King here folded 999 cranes in an attempt to make a perfect world for origami by eradicating all flat paper!"
Olly paled.
"Why did you have to say that?!" Olly hissed under his breath.
Blumiere took a deep breath in and then began to chuckle.
"Bleh heh heh heh! Oh, that's a spitting image of Dimentio! He would be proud!" Blumiere laughed.
Olly squinted in confusion.
"Wait..." Olly muttered, "You don't happen to be..?"
"Count Bleck? I went by that name once, yes." Blumiere replied.
"Wow..." Olly murmured, "And you must be Tippi the Pixl!"
Timpani gave a curtsey. Blumiere chuckled at Olly's shock and amazement.
"Now, what was it you came to ask, Mr.L?" Blumiere questioned.
"We were hoping that you two might know where Super Dimentio is." Mr.L said, "I broke him out of the Underwhere but now he's loose. I need to find him to try and get him back to normal."
Timpani giggled, earning a few confused glances from Mr.L, Olly, and Olivia.
"That's why we're here!" Timpani exclaimed, "We know where Super Dimentio is, so we went to collect the Pure Hearts!"
"And we had just collected the last one," Blumiere said.
Blumiere flashed the red Pure Heart, earning 'ooh's and 'awe's from Olly and Olivia.
"Really?! Then where is he?!" Mr.L asked frantically.
"Super Dimentio appeared in Castle Bleck's Inner Sanctum! Right where his game was ended." Timpani said.
Mr.L facepalmed.
"Of course! Why didn't I think of that before!" Mr.L exclaimed, "We need to get to Castle Bleck!"
Blumiere shook his head.
"I'm sorry, but I do not think I would be of much help." Blumiere chuckled, "After all, I think that he would very much want to make me dead, which would contradict the Pure Hearts."
"If you are going to have any chance to bring him back, you three should be the only ones to go," Timpani said.
"Here," Blumiere held out the Pure Hearts to them, "Take these and save our friend."
Mr.L nodded and took the Pure Hearts. He turned to Olly and Olivia.
"Let's go get Dimentio." Mr.L stated.
