Surrender.
"C-Caro- Mx. Cross, I surrender..." Sven mumbled. "I surrender my position as leader..."
"Excellent choice," Carol growled. "As Right Hand Person, I take position of leader in Mr. Svensson's place. As for you... Sven..."
They glared right into Sven's eyes.
"You're demoted into first-class Toppat. Your job will be getting things for higher-ranking Toppats. You never protest, never argue, and always obey. You accept the things you get and you be grateful for it."
Sven took that as a blow to the chest.
He started to shake, tears flooding from his eyes and down his cheeks, dripping onto the balcony and staining it a dark brown color.
"Be lucky I didn't blow your head off with a shotgun!" Carol snapped. "Now, come inside. I will announce to everyone that you have been successfully dethroned. Hat Girl, I promote you to my Right Hand Lady."
"Of course, Carol!" Hat Girl smiled. "I won't let you down!"
"I know you won't." Carol kissed Hat Girl on the forehead.
Sven's looked away, tears still streaming down his face.
The trio walked back inside.
Carol and Hat Girl immediately made a sharp turn down the hallway, obviously into Sven's office.
Sven sighed.
Through his teary, blurry vision, he wasn't looking at where he was going, and bumped into someone.
"Watch where you're going, blonde idiot," they growled and shoved Sven upright.
Sven turned and felt his pupils constrict.
Burt... No...
Sven sniffled.
"Take your shark!" Carol shouted, throwing the shark plushie at Sven's face.
It hit him in the side of the head, causing him to stumble.
"Weakling!" Carol mocked him.
"Weakling!" somebody repeated.
Sven choked on his own tears, recognizing the voice.
Melody.
"M-M-Mx. C-C-Cross... Y-You c-c-can't be serious..." Sven stuttered. "Th-That's m-my b-bird!"
"Was," Carol corrected. "She's mine now. Birds should only belong to leaders."
"Weakling!" Melody sang.
"That's right, Melody! He is a weakling." Carol smirked.
"Melody..." Sven whispered.
He outstretched one of his hands, as if vainly trying to brush his fingers against Melody's nostalgic soft feathers.
"Get your traitor hand away from my bird," Carol spat. "And go sort paperwork. Now. No buts."
Sven sighed.
"Yes, boss..."
(Sorry for the short chapter! Anyway, this is going to be a canon ending, but not the ending the story continues on. This ending will be named, "Demoted Toppat Leader (DTL)")
