Marks perspective~
I heard a large crack come from the castle...

I quickly jerk my head over to see Dark, standing weakly. He looked like he was about to pass out. I ran over to him, helping him out of the rubble and setting him near the fountain.
"Dark, are you okay?"
No answer.
"Dark?!"
Dark's perspective~
I could hear Mark speaking to me. His words getting softer and more echoey by the second. I knew I was going to pass out, and I did.
Marks perspective~
"Knocked out." I said to Jack. Jack just stared at me blankly, slightly sad. (😕)
"Wh-where's Anti?" He asked me. A chill ran down my spine as I heard him say that.
"I.. I don't know." I say.
Jack stood there for a good 15 seconds. Each millisecond building up a great amount of energy.
"EVERYONE COME ON! WE HAVE TO FIND ANTI!" He yelled, louder than usual.
He ran towards the pile of rubble and started to dig through it. I ran over to it too, and soon enough all of the other... whatever-the-fucks started helping. There were monsters throwing huge chunks of concrete, small demons cracking wood and throwing it, and l others just digging through it. At this point, it was an all out search party for this demon.
Dark's perspective~
I woke to the sound of clashing stones and cracking wood. I rubbed my head and stood up. As my vision cleared, I could make it the sane perfectly. Everyone was looking for something... Anti. I panicked and immediately threw myself at the rubble trying to find him.
After a few minutes of digging, I saw something glitch in the corner of my eye. I walked towards it, and picked up the wood that lay across him.
"Anti!"
I yelled rather loud so everyone could hear. A whole crowd of people ran towards us with Mark and Jack in the lead.
I put my head on his chest. Yes, we may be demons. But we still have hearts.
I didn't hear anything.
I started to tear up, the crowd gasping. I wrapped Anti in a hug and carried him over to the fountain, the crowd splitting for me to walk through. I layed him on the edge, and sat on my knees.
I looked down a cried. The whole of the demon realm standing like a funeral. Mark and Jack stood beside me, patting my shoulders and rubbing my back. I took a long time to get to my feet, but I did.
"Ladies and.. gentleman. Here we have, Anti. A true demon, a free soul, and the love of my life."
Everyone gasped, the following said by a fellow demon.
"THE KING WILL KILL YOU! US!"
And I snapped.
"YOUR KING IS DEAD! As if it was worthy calling him a king anyway."
The whole crowd gasped, silenced, then cheered. I looked at them confused.
"Thank you!" One demon shouted.
"Now I can tell her I love her!"
I saluted him, and he bowed in return.
The crowd soon started chanting.
"All hail Dark, all hail Dark!"
For once in this endeavor, I felt happy. I felt invigorated.
Antis perspective~
...
Dark's perspective~
"Your king is dead, but now... strict rules are dead!" The whole crowd erupted into cheers and hugs.
One small demon ran up to me.
"Dark, Dark! Please be our new ruler!"
I was taken aback.
"Uhhhh..."
Antis perspective~
...
*eyes start to open*
Dark's perspective~
"Oh won't you, pleaaasssee?" The young demon asked.
The whole crowd seemed to be in favor of this. I started to feel overwhelmed when Jack yelled and started running behind me.
"AAANTIIII!"
I turned around swiftly to see a disoriented Anti, sitting up and rubbing his head. He and Jack were in a tight embrace.
"j͇̗̲̞̪̹̝̫̞ͬ͐̀ͧ̿-j͇̗̲̞̪̹̝̫̞ͬ͐̀ͧ̿a̘̫͈̭͌͛͌̇̇̍c͔ͣͦ́́͂ͅk̲̱̠̞̖ͧ̔͊̇̽̿̑ͯͅ?" Anti asked.
"Yes! It's me! Oh my g- Anti!" Jack said, practically crying.
When Jack let go, anti looked up at me. I can't explain the feeling of that moment. A spike of adrenaline coarser through me as Anti and I ran to each other. We hugged tightly as we both fell to the ground.
"Anti! Oh my go-ha-ha-hod!" I managed so say, laughing and crying at the same time.
The crowd cheered and hugged.
Anti was now helping me up.
"i̞̟̫̺ͭ̒ͭͣv̪̩̜̜̙̜ͨ̽̄e̮̟͈̣̖̰̩̹͈̾ͨ̑͑ n͉̠̙͉̗̺̋̋̔ͧ̊e̮̟͈̣̖̰̩̹͈̾ͨ̑͑v̪̩̜̜̙̜ͨ̽̄e̮̟͈̣̖̰̩̹͈̾ͨ̑͑r̼̯̤̈ͭ̃ͨ̆ w̠̘̗͖̮̥ͣ̽ͫ͂a̘̫͈̭͌͛͌̇̇̍n͉̠̙͉̗̺̋̋̔ͧ̊t̘̟̼̉̈́͐͋͌̊e̮̟͈̣̖̰̩̹͈̾ͨ̑͑d̥̝̮͙͈͂̐̇ͮ̏̔̀̚ͅ t̘̟̼̉̈́͐͋͌̊o͎̜̓̇ͫ̉͊ͨ͊ d̥̝̮͙͈͂̐̇ͮ̏̔̀̚ͅo͎̜̓̇ͫ̉͊ͨ͊ t̘̟̼̉̈́͐͋͌̊h͚̖̜̍̃͐i̞̟̫̺ͭ̒ͭͣs̪̭̱̼̼̉̈́ͪ͋̽̚ m̘͈̺̪͓ͩ͂̾ͪ̀̋o͎̜̓̇ͫ̉͊ͨ͊r̼̯̤̈ͭ̃ͨ̆e̮̟͈̣̖̰̩̹͈̾ͨ̑͑!" He dipped me and kissed me. Soon pulling me up into a normal kiss. The crowd went wild and Mark and Jack stood in the background holding hands. We finally pulled away. I grabbed his hand and raised it with mine.
"Behold, your new kings... of the demon realm!"
The crowd jumped and hugged and kissed each other. The amount of love here was so amazing. I could feel everything good all at once.

Epilogue~
:Dark's perspective:
After about a month or so of rebuilding the castle, everything was done. Anti and I paid everyone for their services and they were on their way. Mark and Jack appeared in the fountain. They visit every so often since the globe was given to Mark. Sometimes they'd offer a trip back to their world to bring back old times. We'd often all hang out in the demon realm, though it's nice to see the "new world" again.

At this point, Mark and Jack made new friends, adopted a child, and live a wonderful life together.

Anti and Dark, adopted a demon dog, and are spending their lives together.
