The Birthday That Ended It All - A Unikitty! AU

Chapter 23: A New Plan

Master Pain opened the door to one of the guest rooms. "Welcome to your new room, princess."

Unikitty walked in. "Whoa..." She said to herself.

The room was small, and the only thing in it was a small bed and a nightstand next to it. But, she hasn't slept in a real room in so long, she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

"There's a kitchen connected to this room with food in it. Help yourself." Hazard stated.

Unikitty jumped onto the bed and giggled.

"Hey, princess." Pain walked up to her. "Why is Doom giving you access to all of this?"

"She's letting me be a Doom Lord. I told her that I needed time to think about it, so she said that she's giving me two days to do so."

Pain and Hazard exchanged looks. "Well, have a nice stay while you're here." Pain finally said, and they exited the room.

When they were outside and the door was shut, Hazard turned to look at Pain. "Her? A Doom Lord? Ha! Master Doom has lost her mind."

Pain shushed him. "Don't say that!"

Hazard stopped. "Right." He bent closer to her face. "I can't believe she's letting Unikitty, of all people, be a Doom Lord."

"Maybe she's changed." Pain said. "Spending time in a prison cell can do things to you."

"Maybe you're right." Hazard turned around. "Well, I'll see you around, I guess."

"See you around." Pain replied, and the two parted ways.

Times have been rough for everyone in The Resistance. Puppycorn is still mad at Hawkodile and won't even talk to him. Because of the way he's being treated, it lead him to believe that Unikitty being captured was his fault. Dr. Fox has shut herself off from everyone to plan. The only time she talks to them is when she does have one, and it usually takes her a good ten minutes to explain what she has in mind. Richard feels like the team is falling apart, and it's his job to get it back together again. But, it's too hard with Puppycorn ignoring Hawkodile and Dr. Fox not even wanting to talk to anyone.

Everyone felt awful.

"Alright guys, I've got a plan!" Dr. Fox exclaimed.

Everybody moaned. They were getting tired of her plans. None of them were working.

"This time, I'm sure my plan will work! Just trust me, okay?"

"What do you have in mind?" Richard asked.

"I call it..." Dr. Fox breathed in. "Operation KFBTSTKAHIWCIOLR."

Everyone stared. "What?" Puppycorn then said, cocking his head to one side.

"Kuh-fbt-stick-kah-wi-ceeh-olr." Dr. Fox said slowly so everyone could understand.

"And what is that supposed to mean?" Richard asked.

"It stands for 'Kick Frown's Butt To Save The Kingdom And Hope It Works Cuz It's Our Last Resort'. KFBTSTKAHIWCIOLR."

"Why is the acronym so long?" Hawkodile questioned.

Dr. Fox shrugged. "I like long acronyms."

"So, you're saying that this new plan... Operation What's-its-face..."

"Kuh-fbt-stick-kah-wi-ceeh-olr." Dr. Fox corrected, pronouncing it clearly once more.

"Right. So Operation Kah-fuht-stick-kuh-weeh-ceeh-orr..."

She shrugged. "Close enough."

"...Is going to help us get Unikitty back?"

"Not just that. It's going to help us defeat Frown once and for all!"

"And what's this plan of yours?"

Dr. Fox cleared her throat. "I'll explain everything..." She started, then began telling them her entire plan she had for the new operation.

Master Frown was sitting in his room when someone stated knocking on his door. "Uh, can I come in?" Brock asked from the other side of the door.

"Sure."

He walked in.

"Can you explain to me why I just heard everyone talking about Unikitty becoming a Doom Lord?"

"Oh that? I guess it's probably time for you to know. Here. I'll tell you everything." Frown pointed to a seat on his bed next to him. Brock sat down where he had pointed to.

"I was able to capture Unikitty by electrocuting her and knocking her out. But, the electricity did something to her brain, and it made her forget everything that happened in the last twenty-four hours. So, I took that as a chance to tell her that her friends were actually the ones who turned her in to me!"

Brock cocked his head to one side. "Why?"

"Because now she thinks that her friends hate her! For days I could hear her crying about it! It was amazing!"

He was suddenly overcome with a sick feeling. Everything about that was just cruel.

Frown cleared his throat. "Anyways, I got Master Doom in on it, too, and now we've convinced Unikitty to become a Doom Lord!"

Brock gasped. "Really?"

"Well, no, not yet. We're just waiting to see what she says. We're pretty sure she's going to say yes, though, because it's either that or she'll be forced to go back in a dungeon for the rest of her life, or even be kicked back out to the streets to live with her friends, who obviously hate her."

"But... why?"

"Because, now with Unikitty out of the way, getting rid of the rest of them will be a breeze! She's like the glue that holds their friend group together. When you get rid of the glue, everything falls apart." Frown started laughing. "It's perfect! There's no way we can fail now!"

"Wow, I... uhh..." Brock stared at the floor. "I didn't think you'd... wow."

"I'm glad you like it." Frown stated. "Now, does this clear everything up for you?"

"Yeah, I guess..." Brock got off of Frown's bed. "I... I've gotta go now." He walked over to the door. "Bye, dude." He said quietly, shutting the door behind him.

He looked down at the floor sadly.

This whole promotion thing... it's turned him into such a big jerk!  He thought. I mean, capturing Unikitty and turning her against her friends? What did she do to deserve this?

He sighed. I miss the old Master Frown... the one that always hung out with me and never even cared about all of this... I... I want the old Frown back!

He stopped, then looked out the window. And the only people who can help me with that... is The Resistance.
