[Enter Ronald]
RONALD: I guess Nevada is ok.
It's not like California, but... Nothing is.
[A phone dings]
Oh, my news app just went off.
[He reads notification]
... What?! My true love has been proclaimed... dead?
I must get there at once!
If I must see her dead, I must see her dead now!
[Time skip; Ronald has arrived at California]
That didn't take very long. I severely underestimated this.
Now, to see my love!
[He enters Jack's room]
Oh, Jack, what happened?
Just the other day, I saw you, all happy and full of light.
I mean, I did break in, but that's all right. You forgave me.
But if you must be dead, I must be dead too.
We can finally love, even if it's in death.
[Ronald chugs a Mt. Dew. He dies]
[Jack wakes]
JACK: Wha- Ronald?!
Ronald! What happened?
How are you here? Why are you here? Is it my doing?
I see that you have died. Is it because I had pretended to myself?
If this is the case, then I must die as well. If you can't have my love,
No one can.
[Jack eats a Popeyes biscuit. He suffocates and dies]
[Burger King and Dairy Queen Enter]
BURGER KING: My son!!!
DAIRY QUEEN: My son!!!
BURGER KING: This is all your son's fault!
DAIRY QUEEN: I could say the exact same to you!
BURGER KING: But, maybe all of this fighting was really the problem all along.
DAIRY QUEEN: Perhaps, but I still blame your son!
BURGER KING: What my son did is none of mine or your business!
They were in love, why can't you see?!
DAIRY QUEEN: In.. love? My little boy was... in love?
If this is so, I guess, just this once, I could make an exception.
... And possibly form a friendship?
BURGER KING: I guess so as well.
[They shake hands]
I'm happy to see that this feud has finally come to an end.
DAIRY QUEEN: Me as well.
The End.
