A multiverse in ruins

Chapter 68:Complicated Truths

Nightmare's POV days later

"Ah, how interesting."I say

"Yeah! Then there was this weird lady named Yzma that tried to turn my brother into a llama! But her assistant Kronk got us out of there! Oh, and then I dunno what happened but we got stuck between two Gods of the Afterlife! One named Xibalba, Ruler of the Land of the Forgotten and Hades, Ruler of the Underworld. They were arguing on who was better or powerful! Then this lady named La Muerte came and took us away. And a monkey man named Mojo Jojo took us away to another world. Then he got blasted by a lady named Shego. Apparently the villains of a bunch of universes were at war to see who is best. This Shego girl was nice. Sassy, but nice and was very strong, protecting us. Then we met a guy named Dr. Doof that got stuck in the middle of it and he took us to safety. He claimed to be evil but was really nice and funny, which reminded me of you. I explained things to him and he got to work on making an invention. He even got help from a platypus in a fedora. It opened a portal to what he hoped to be our multiverse and he send us home, saying that he may be evil enough to attempt to take over the Tri-State Area, he knows that no villain should be seperated from their family. But instead he sent us to an evil lair!"He explains

"Well he isn't wrong. But man, your adventures sound wacky."I say

"Yep! I thought our multiverse was weird and yet we haven't even seen the other multiverses! There's so many and it's strange yet exciting to see!"He says

I smile, listening to my son Ghastly explain his adventures to me. His brother Magnus was sleeping in my arms.

"What happened afterwards? What villain owned the lair you fell into?"I ask curiously

I didn't even question how we are related. I could sense it from him and I just get that feeling that only a parent or family member would get when reunited with a child or relative. Plus, this child is so sweet that even if we weren't related I'd keep him around. They're so precious and sweet, plus entertaining to keep around. He explained how I was their parent before the reset, which I honestly was cool with.

"The lights turned on and I got surrounded by yellow beings in overalls and goggles that varied in shape and size. Fat, skinny, tall, short, one eye, two eyes, bits of hair, no hair, etc. Different voice pitches and personalities were obvious. They spoke a different language which seemed to mix a bunch of languages together. They picked my brother and I up, talking to each other  until their leader appeared. He was this tall, slender, bald human dressed in dark colors and had a pointy nose. They handed us to him and he demanded answers. I explained things to him and he introduced himself as Gru. Apparently we weren't the first to arrive. His name was Gru and the yellow folks were his minions speaking Minionese. A blue man named Megamind had also been dropped in here. He used to try to be evil but apparently turned to be a hero. Same with Gru. They took good care of us until-"He explains

Knock knock!

"Who is it?"I ask

"Cross!"A voice shouts from the other side

"What was your relationship with him before the reset?"I ask quietly

"May I come in?"Cross asks

"We were on good terms."He says

"Okay, come in Cross. But come in quietly."I say

He slams the door open.

Real quiet, Cross. T-T

Magnus starts crying after rudely awoken from his nap.

"Cross! You woke him up!"I snap

A glow from Ghastly's wrist appears and a hologram of two heads appear.
