The Mortal Babysitter: A Dark Deception Fanfiction (Agatha x Reader)

Extra: Nonsense

In the vast cavern, we faced one another, our wills clashing as our eyes pierced through the other's soul.

"It's no use," the symbiote told me. "Just scram while you still have the legs." Saliva dripped from his dagger-like teeth.

Blood dribbled down my arm, trickled off my fingers to splash upon the hardened ground.

Behind me, the little ones huddled, their bodies busted as they struggled to cling to their consciousness.

"He's right . . . MC," Agatha whispered. "Leave us. Save . . . Save yourself. Please . . ."

I merely clenched my teeth.

"I'm not backing down," I hissed. "And you can bet your ass I'm not leaving you behind. I'm getting all of you home, whatever it takes!"

The symbiote grinned.

"Then you'll die a foolish human."

"Maybe I am foolish . . ." I clapped my hands together. "But you're about to be blown away by this foolish human!"

My vision blurred.

I'm barely holding on as it is. I think I got enough for one more move.

Thank you, Agatha.

Thank you, Meredith.

Thank you, Wolfette.

Thank you, Banda.

Because of you guys, I have the power to do what I could only come up with in my dreams.

My focus condensed into that critical point, towards that realm that even the gods couldn't contemplate.

I took a deep breath.

Imagine a me without limits.

A me without hesitation.

One by one, like tulips sprouting from the meadow floor, my emotions blossomed into my will to strive.

A me who's worth a damn!

The symbiote grinned, then hurled his body towards us.

"I don't think so!" he howled.

Crisp was the air that brushed past my lips.

"Domain Expansion . . ."

My eyes went wide.

". . . Scarlet Evergarden!"

Like elegant rain, tiny crimson petals descended upon us, and as the mountainous menace approached, his feet scraped against the roses blooming from the ground.

But right as the climax could bless our actuality . . .

"CUUUUUUUUUT!"

Instantly, the magic of the scene blinked away, and rather than fighting for my life in a decrepit arena, I now found myself back in the studio set, surrounded by foam rocks, a green screen, and many, many cameras.

Off to the side, the two-faced teddy bear huffed and puffed, dressed in his finest director's outfit as he threw himself off the director's chair.

"How many times do I have to tell you!?" Monokuma hissed as he stomped toward me. "It's not 'Domain Expansion'! It's Ryōiki Tenkai! Say it with me: Ryōiki Tenkai!"

"And I keep telling you, I don't have the accent for it!" I growled back. "I'm just gonna butcher the name!"

"You're gonna butcher this movie if you keep saying the English name!"

"This movie sucks, anyway!"

Only a few centimeters now hung between our faces.

"What'd you say!?" Monokuma hissed. "You take that back!"

"Make me, you wannabe oompaloompa!"

Wolfette licked the ketchup off her fur.

"You guys think we'll get lunch soon?" she asked the others. "I'm starving."

"I could go for some marrow stew right about now," Agatha suggested.

The mummy girl and Little Slendy both nodded with excitement.

Mr. Venom spoke with a peculiar duo: a young African man with glasses wearing a red hoodie and headphones around his neck, and a teenage girl with unkempt thunder-yellow hair and braces latched onto her teeth.

"So, if I do this, I get to be in the main story, right?" Venom asked.

The young man smiled shyly. "Truth be told, I would've put you in even if you didn't do this, but I appreciate it regardless. I can't do the next part because you wouldn't really fit, so how 'bout the part after that?"

"When will it be finished?"

"Well, I should be finished with this next part by the end of the month, and after I edit some other stuff I'm working on, I'll come back to write your part. Soooo, around June, maybe?"

Mr. Venom grimaced.

"June!?" he bellowed. "That's too long!"

"Hey, man, I'm trying! Cut me some slack."

"At least he knows who you are!" 049 hollered from the stands.

"Hey, I did my research!" the young man barked back. "And Cartoonstxrys seemed to like it, so I did fine!"

"Ha! Whatever helps you sleep at night!"

The young man's eye twitched with annoyance.

"Boooo!" Malak hollered from the side. "Get this puny mortal out of the spotlight! My sweet Agatha is much more deserving!"

"Oh, can it, you ugly lookin' licorice stick!" I barked. "Nobody wants to hear your doting daddy nonsense!"

"Nandato!" My boss wasted no time springing to his feet to march towards me. "What did you say, you little twerp!? Don't get cocky just because Creator is here!"

"Now that he's here, I can finally lay out all the crap you put me through!" I growled. "And get me a new freakin' compass already!"

As he watched the bickering unfold, the young man couldn't help but snicker, which then turned into straight up hug-your-belly laughter.

"What are they doing?" he wondered, wiping the tear from his eye.

As the teenage girl beside him noticed his joy unending, she curved her lips sweetly.

"Master," she said, "are you enjoying words again?"

The young man kindly stroked the girl's hair.

"Yeah," he said happily. "I think I am."
