In The World Of His Nightmares (DimentioXMr.L)[An SPM AU!]

Round Two

The man in green lept out from the mirror and into the next memory illusion. The mirror itself faded away as Mr.L looked around, trying to figure out where he was now. He realized that he was still in the same throne room, but it now appeared to be destroyed. Pillars were toppled, the throne in the middle of the room was destroyed, and everything in between.

"That Pixl packed quite the punch..." Mr.L muttered.

Mr.L paused as he heard someone else in the room still. The man in green turned and could see Dimentio kneeling on the ground, sobbing as he held what looked like the Dark Prognosticus to his chest. Mr.L walked over and peered towards Dimentio to see that he was crying over the shattered body of his Pixl partner Visionary. All of the colors were gone from her body, leaving nothing but glass-like shards.

Dimentio and Mr.L flinched at the sound of what they thought must have been a stampede of some kind. The two of them turned and came face-to-face with a large mob of people, all of them looking angry.  All of the Pixls flew up to Dimentio as he stood up.

"What happened to you?!" Cudge exclaimed.

"Your FACE!" Slim pointed out.

Dimentio quickly shot a hand up to his face to cover his blackened skin before Mr.L could even catch a glance of him, much to his disappointment. Dimentio shook his head as he struggled not to burst into more sobs.

"I-I was... The Pixl Queen! Sh-she did something to me!" Dimentio cried.

"The Pixl Queen cursed that man!" Someone from the crowd shouted.

Dimentio nodded, tears welling up again.

"That's an impure blood!"

"He's possessed!"

"The Pixl Queen is mind-controlling him!"

Dimentio went wide-eyed and quickly shook his head no.

"N-no! M-my Pixl, Visionary! Sh-she stopped the curse from taking full effect!" Dimentio frantically exclaimed, pleading innocent.

"Wait. What happened to Visionary?!" Dashell asked.

Dimentio bit his lip, not wanting to tell them her fate. Someone in the crowd made an assumption and spoke up.

"The Pixl Queen possessed him! He killed his Pixl partner!" They shouted.

Dimentio shook his head frantically as he backed up, feeling like this mob was turning on him fast.

"NO! I would never hurt her!" Dimentio cried.

The mob ignored him as they riled up.

"Get him!"

"He's possessed!"

"He killed the Pixl!"

"BURN THE JESTER!"

Dimentio went wide-eyed and then screamed in fear, turning as running before the mob could properly collect themselves.

"Dimentio, RUN!" Mr.L shouted before pausing. "Wait. He can't hear me, this is a memory..."

Meanwhile, Dimentio found himself backed against the wall and he curled himself defensively, looking frightened out of his wit's end as he clutched the Dark Prognosticus like a stress toy. The mob advanced, the magic users all sparking their abilities to attack him. The other Pixls were desperately trying to stop the mob but were failing.

"Hey! Stop that!" Piccolo exclaimed.

"Chill, man! He didn't do anything!" Slim shouted.

"Back off of him!" Carrie spat.
