'W-where are we?'
Rascal tries to open his eyes when he hears Chloe's voice, but they are too heavy. What is going on?
'Rascal?' her voice sounds. She walks towards her boyfriend who has his eyes closed and trokes his purple bangs.
When his energy is coming back, he opens his eyes and looks at Chloe. 'We need to get out of here... Why aren't you transformed?'
'My Glitter Pact, it's gone!' Chloe says worried.
'How?!' Rascal jumps up immediantly. Then he looks at her. 'My mask... it's not enchanted anymore so now I am wearing a normal mask!'
Chloe sees that he is right, because the black eyes of the mask don't move anymore.
'Please tell me...' Rascal doesn't even finish his sentence, takes a card and let it loose, but it just falls on the ground.
'My magic is gone too!' Rascal looks concerned.
'We have to get it back,' Chloe says.
'But... where are we?' the joker asks. 'And can you remember anything that happened before we got here?'
'No...' Chloe answers. 'I only remember the moment you told us that Nogo is coming back. The rest is just... a black hole.'
'I want you to stay with me,' Rascal says and wraps his arm around her. 'I need to protect you, if you like it or not!'
'I want nothing more,' Chloe says. 'I want to stay with you.'
Rascal smiles, kisses her on her lips and Chloe returns it. Rascal starts to stroke her hair again.
'Have I already told you how beautiful you are, Breeze?' the joker then asks. 'Because you're the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.'
'Thank you...' Chloe blushes.
'You are my world, deary.' Rascal taps her cheek playfully.
'Rascal...' she blushes and then carefully touches Rascal's mask. 'Could you please take your mask off? I want to see your eyes and since your mask is not enchanted anymore...'

Rascal sighs. 'Fine. But only because you are my girlfriend.'
Rascal is about to take it off, when a familiar voice suddenly sounds.
'No time for cuddling!'
It's Anadil the witch.
'You better be busy with trying to find a way out, right?!'
'You! You took us here!' Rascal growls angrily. 'What have you done to our powers?!'
'I? I didn't do anything,' Anadil smirks. 'It's this who did the work.' She shows the blue and purple heart. 'This here, drains all power out of you. And with this power, we can let the Wheel of Doom tick again!'
'No...' Chloe says shocked.
'No you won't!' Rascal says angrily.
'Try to stop me!' Anadil laughs and tries to stop Rascal by punching him, but Rascal dodges it while keeping his hands on his back. Then Anadil tries it again and again, but Rascal dodges all atack and then pushes her and Anadil falls.
Rascal quickly goes for the hearts and grabs them.
'Breeze,' he says, 'we have to make sure that they will not get this in their dirty hands!'
'What's happening?' Chloe asks when the hearts start to glow.
'You can't touch it if you are not merged with the Heart of Entire Darkness!' Anadil yells.
The hearts suddenly let out a magic beam and Rascal falls on his back and groans.
'Hurts, doesn't it?' Anadil picks the hearts up. 'It's already too late!'
'We'll see about it,' Rascal says and stands up with difficulty.
'Don't even try!' Anadil kicks Rascal in his face and his mask goes off and Rascal himself also falls.
'Ew!' Anadil says and gags. 'Now I understand why Nogo made you wear that mask! You are ugly!'
Rascal quickly grabs his mask and puts it back on, right before Chloe can see his face.

'Goodbye Rascal!' Anadil lets a sword made of glass appear and wants to stab the joker in the chest.
'No!' Chloe screams terrified and runs up to them. But she has no way of saving Rascal...
'I decide when to die!' Rascal quickly rolls to the left and stands up while Anadil sticks the sword in the ground and he kicks her. Anadil falls on the ground. But then she floats up in the sky and laughs.
'I am not playing this game anymore,' she says. 'Fine! You can live! I didn't want you to live your life humiliated!'
'Humiliated?!' Chloe says. 'Of what? You haven't beaten us!'
'Oh really?' Anadil asks. 'Because I see that I already did!'
She laughs out loud and lands on the ground while looking at an angry girl and an angry joker.
'You see... You girls used your Phoenix Power Attack Miracle Rainbow Burst. That was a good chance to use these hearts. They suck up your energy and can only be used once. We come from different dimentions with different powers! Don't get me wrong, you guys are strong... Oh, that rhymed...' Anadil giggles. 'But there's a big problem. Your powers aren't focussed on defeating the Heart of Entire Darkness but on defeating Emperor Nogo. We ourselfs can't bring Nogo back with our powers, but your powers can. And it seems like I got your powers right here!'
Anadil shows the two the blue and purple heart.
'Your powers mixed with the powers of the Heart of Entire Darkness makes it able to bring Nogo back. So you basically helped us by attacking us because we could suck up those powers. Our leader, princess Evelyn, will bring Nogo back to existence by using the hearts and then... The Wheel of Doom will be fixed and we will suck up negative energy to turn it, and you won't be able to stop us while you are powerless!'
Anadil shows Chloe's Glitter Pact. The two gasp from shock because the Glitter Pact is grey and has a huge crack in it.
'Oh I love to see the shock on your face!' Anadil cries. 'And maybe this will make it worse!'
'No!' Chloe and Rascal scream, but it's too late.
Anadil squizes and the Glitter Pact breaks. Grey pieces fall down on the ground, turn into dust and is blown away by a small breeze.
Chloe falls down on her knees while Rascal stares at the place where the wind has took the dust with it.
It's over.
The Glitter Force is gone.
'I will say hello to Nogo for you!' Anadil laughs. 'Rascal, this is your LAST chance. You can still make up your betrayal. Join us and serve your master and give this universe an unhappy ending!' She uses her magic on him and he turns normal again. 'Here's a welcome present if you choose us, some negative energy to restore your powers.'
Chloe looks up with tears in her eyes. If Rascal will be gone too, she can't take it anymore.
Rascal looks at Chloe and then at Anadil. He seems to seriously doubt the path he has choosen so far.
'I know you still have darkness inside you,' Anadil says. 'It will never go away! And if you choose Chloe, Nogo will come after you and kill you!'
Rascal seems to think deeply about it. Turning evil again. Even though he has choosen the good side and became Chloe's boyfriend, he has been craving for darkness.
Rascal then takes a deep breath. He has made his decision.
'I rather want to get killed.'
The jester kneels down and protectively wraps his arms around Chloe.

The Villain's Double Life
“The Villain’s Double Life as the Hero’s Mentor," “Demon Nobles Want to Live Too: A Hero-Raising Simulator for the Transmigrated Villain," “Just Because I’m a Villain Doesn’t Mean I Want the World to End!” Cyrus Calvide was the second son of an aristocratic lord; haughty, vain and power-hungry. One day, when his ancestral inheritance manifested, he discovered he was able to steal other’s powers and abilities using demonic magic. Taking this as a sign that he was destined to rule over others and become the new king of this land, he poisoned his father, killed his elder brother, and embarked on the path to greatness, taking advantage of a demonic invasion to consolidate power and harvest the abilities of others in a cruel and bloody fashion. Until he was summarily defeated by the Hero as a mid-game boss battle and executed for his crimes, of course. When a dedicated fan of the RPG “Next to Eden” awakened in the body of the cruelest future Count, four years before the beginning of the game, he pledged to live humbly. He would let his brother lead and support the Hero from the shadows to ensure the demon invasion would be defeated and he could enjoy life in peace. Rather, he would have, if he hadn’t gotten the Hero’s mentor killed in a freak monster attack before the Hero’s training could even begin. How was he supposed to live a life of peace and luxury if the Hero couldn’t stop the end of the world!? Donning a mask, Cyrus took up mentoring the Hero himself; how hard could it possibly be? . . . Four years later, the kind jack-of-all-trades hero Leon had become a twisted powerhouse: alienating his party members, clearing enemy encounters in a single magical blast, and coldly ignoring the affections of the girl whose love would have allowed him to clear the final boss. He seemed to have plastered himself to his Master’s side, instead. Cyrus bit back his despair while the hero reached out to grasp his hand. “Please stop ignoring the saint, Leon; you can't beat the Demon King by grinding stats! You need the power of love, remember?” “Don’t worry, Master,” Leon smiled as he traced the lines of Cyrus’s palm gently, almost reverently. “I have all the love I need.” VDL is two parts plot and worldbuilding, one part slow-build gay romance, starring a man far too proud to admit he's in over his head and the hero who loves him. Should be updating weekly.
