Ruler of Everything

In the gallows or the ghetto

It was a warm sunny afternoon at the Markiplier Manor. Mark is seen sitting on his couch with his head in his hands, looking distressed. He brings his left hand down in front of his face to see his silver wedding band on his finger. 

He takes his other hand to his wedding band and takes it off of his ring finger. He takes his ring into his hand and makes a fist, balling the ring in his closed hand. He brings his closed hand to his chest, close to his heart as he lets a tear fall from his eye onto his lap.

In the town or the meadow

Mark lifts his head as he hears the front door open, he turns to see one of his close friends: Winter. Once he sees her standing at the door he quickly wipes his tears and stands up to greet her. 

"Winter! It's so good to see you again! How have you been, dear?" Mark asks with a smile, while giving his friend a hug, staying like that for a second or two. "Hello Mark! I have been good, just the same as always." Winter says pulling away from the hug to look into Mark's red puffy eyes. "How are you doing Mark? I heard about what happened with Celine." Winter says, still at arm's length from Mark. 

Mark looks at her with glossy eyes and turns away from her gaze. "She decided to be with the Colonel, instead of me. After all I have done for her! After all we've been through together!" Mark yells as he turns away from Winter, clenching his fist with his ring in it harder till his knuckles turned white.

"Why did she have to leave me" Mark asked with a small voice, hugging himself slightly.

In the billows even over the sun

Winter looks at Mark's back that is faced towards her, the corners of her lips twitch up, but she forces them into a frown. She walks up to Mark and places a hand on his shoulder. Mark faces her and brings her into a hug as a sob escaped from him. She rubbed his back to comfort him. "This is all according to plan." Winter thought as a mischievous smile formed on her lips. 

"I don't know Mark, but I may have a way to help you." Winter says pulling away from the hug and looking into his eyes with a sympathetic look. "Really how!?" Mark asks with a hopeful look on his face. 

"I can't tell you but you have to trust me." Winter states now giving Mark a more serious look. Mark's eyebrows furrowed in confusion."Why can't you tell me? If you are going to help I want to know how you going going to do it." Mark raises his voice to show his seriousness. Winter sighs in frustration and pinches the bridge of her nose. "Fine, but you must not tell anyone what I have told you here today, do I make myself clear?" Winter says with a stern tone in her voice. Mark nods a makes a motion for Winter to continue. 

Winter turns and faces the window and walks towards it, hugging herself. "I can help by using power that I have. If you allow me to I will have some level of control over your body to help you get Celine back. Only if you allow me too." She says turning to face Mark. "I mean, you love her want to spend more time with her, right? If you don't get there in time you could lose your chance. Like I always say every end of the time is another begun, but it is you choice Mark."

Mark looks at her in shock not believing what she is telling him. "That is not possible! How can you have powers? You read too many fairy tales, de-" Mark is cut off by Winter lifting her hand to show white wisps coming from her hands. He stares at her with wide eyes and backing away from her in fear. "How is that possible?" Mark's voice shakes.

"I was born with it, I only discovered it a few years ago. I learned to control it. Over time I realized something." Winter says bringing her hand down to rest near her side. She faces Mark whose face softened at her words. "You understand mechanical hands," she gestured to her own hands "Are the ruler of everything " She walks closer to Mark. "Ruler of everything? How?" Mark asks, fidgeting with his ring.

"Because the power I hold is nothing like anything seen before. I can help you and many others with this power, besides, I'm the ruler of everything in the end, you just have to trust me." Winter says grabbing Marks hands with her own. Mark looks down as he thinks for a moment.

"I'm still not sure about this power of yours but, if you think it can help me, I trust you." Mark says looking up at Winter and giving her a small smile. Winter felt a feeling of guilt in her heart, but she pushed it away. She smiled at Mark and mumbled a small 'thank you' and told him to sit on the couch and relax.

Winter raises both of her hands near his temples as white wisps leave her fingers and into Mark's head. Soon the brown color of Mark's iris' turns a glowing white color. All of a sudden Winter hears a small clack, she looks down and sees Mark's ring had fallen from his hands to the wood floor. 

She bends down to pick up the ring, holding it in her hands. "I will just hold this for you, besides, you won't be needing it anymore." She says looking the ring in her hands, smiling slightly. She looks back at Mark, who is till siting on the couch iris' still the same glowing white color, she smiles.

"This is where the fun begins"
